California Spiny Lobster – Wild, Sweet, and Packed with Flavor
If you’ve never had a California Spiny Lobster, you're in for a treat. Caught wild right off the Southern California coast, this lobster is known for its incredibly sweet, tender white meat—some say even sweeter than the Aussie stuff. No claws here—all the meat’s in the tail, and it’s pure gold when grilled, broiled, or split and baked.
Whether you're serving it whole for a show-stopping dinner or slicing the tail for a next-level surf & turf, Spiny Lobster brings that unmistakable West Coast flavor to your table. It’s got that clean, buttery taste that only comes from wild, warm-water lobster—nothing farmed, nothing frozen when you order live.
📍 Caught Fresh During a Limited Season
These beauties are only in season from October through mid-March, and they move fast. We source ours straight from local divers and traps, so when you order from Giovanni’s, you're getting the real deal—live, wild-caught, and handled with care from the dock to your door.
🔥 Pro Tip: Brush with garlic butter, grill shell-side down, and hit it with a squeeze of lemon. That’s all it takes.
