Matt Storch — the 1995 Staples High School grad who has made a name for himself with restaurants like Match — is coming home.
He’s opening Match Burger Lobster, next to Fleishers Craft Butchery on Riverside Avenue.

According to CT Bites, the new restaurant features fresh seafood from Norm Bloom and Son, and “Northeast pasture-raised and humanely-handled beef, ground daily at Fleishers.”
The menu includes lobster rolls, whole lobsters, a variety of burgers, local Copps Island oysters, Fleishers hot dogs, onion rings, donut milk shakes, wine and beer.
Storch’s “Match Burger” is be available in regular and mini versions — plus one that’s butter-dipped.
Fans of the butcher shop and restaurant can walk easily back and forth. Match Burger and Lobster will offer both table service and takeout.
Does Matt have timing for when he hopes to open? I’m coming back to town next weekend and I think I can talk my boys into burgers at this place instead of Shake Shack.
when is it opening?
Looking forward to the opening!
So now we have lobster rolls at Black Duck, Lobster Shack (at Rizzuto’s), Pearl and now Match ~ all within close proximity. I’m sure there are others in town, but who’s complaining? Bon Appetit!
And Joey’s by the Shore at Compo Beach!
Well, a townie would point out you can find the biggest, and reasonably priced lobsta rolls at Westfair F&C, for over 25 years
Westfair was (is) the best!
I’m a born ‘n raised townie, but living in Trumbull now, so getting to Westfair is … rare.
Losing Fleishers Craft Kitchen was a huge blow, sounds like this will be a worthy replacement!
Yum
Just added Match Burger Lobster to my to-do list!
