The best!!! Great location, gorgeous views , fresh seafood , deliciously cooked, large portions , worth the wait and drive. I'll continue to make a stop by here every summer- it's been a few already.
Great location. oysters were small but delish. OMG roll is a good size but expensive . NE Chowder and bisque were well done. Get a corn , skip the carrott cake , very dry
If you're getting a lobster roll , get the OMG lobster roll . Byob . The shrimp is mediocre. But it's a beautiful place and is always a great place to visit.
Choose between hot or cold sandwiches : the traditional lobster salad roll , garnished with mayo and celery on a hot dog bun , or Abbott’s famous hot lobster roll , buttered and served on a round roll . Read more
Grab a spot in line and order the famous hot lobster roll : a quarter pound of hot, buttery lobster meat stuffed on a toasted hamburger bun . It’s what summer dreams are made of. Read more
Awesome hot lobster roll . The OMG Roll is massive and delicious. Dockside tables have great views and don't forget to wash it all down with a blueberry shake !
The lobster is king here. They’re steamed so the water doesn't permeate the shell and dull its flavor. Abbott’s will sell you the suckers in sizes up to 10 pounds, big enough to make Ahab blush. Read more
OMG Hot Lobster Roll ! BYOB . The scenic view is unbelievable!
Esquire: Picnic tables on the grass by the water. Steamed lobsters , caught that day, with drawn butter in paper cups. A beer .
Locals know to head next door to Costello’s (similar vibe but Costello’s has French fries , fish sandwich , etc.). $3 for a scoop of ice cream felt like a steal!
Try and secure a table out on the dock, the view is great! You can bring your own alcohol as well , so come prepared :)
Lobster roll will never disappoint. The bisque was pretty damn good too.
Fantastic shore dinner - great location, excellent service can't wait to go back again!
Byob and ur own dog. Best lobster , bisque, and cheesecake
You must get the hot lobster roll , a variation on the seafood staple. It's made with melted butter and served on a toasted roll . Read more
Great outdoor seating , food is good and BYOB
The hot lobster roll is the best I've ever had. I love that they don't use mayonnaise .
Gluten free rolls available upon request. The only place I take my fiancée for lobster rolls !
Really enjoyed the steamers and corn ! Beautiful to sit and watch the boat traffic.
The hot lobster roll is amazing. If you're extra hungry, go for the jumbo!
Amazing food, spectacular views
Scenic view of the water and marina .
Hot lobster roll is amazing ..... A must have when you are here
"Joe's Law" is that anything here that needs a recipe is mediocre. Order simple: lobster , corn , clams . Avoid garlic muscles , crab cakes , deviled eggs , etc.
Get the red chowder
Beat seafood restaurant I've ever been to! Lobsters are as fresh as they get!
Good place but had to wait in separate line for small milkshake for about 25 minutes while food was ready way before. Wish they would have told you that you would waste time with that.
Really scenic view for dinner . Food is pretty good
They know what to do to a lobster and you can't beat the views . BYO
The Connecticut Style Lobster Rolls are Absolutely Amazing!

Get. The. Lobster . I call it the McDonald's of lobster-love it!
Lobster Rolls are to die for
Love the mussels !!! But why is everything in the rough??
Definitely order the hot lobster roll . You will not be disappointed.
Get the lobster or lobster roll . Don't get distracted by anything else. Everything else mediocre.

Lobster was over cooked. Captain Scott's is better. Wonderful location though!

Speak clearly when ordering, our cashier messed my order up twice!
My specialty - special order Lobster Caesar salad. They'll make it for you if you ask. BYOB. - Sandra M.
Absolutely perfect as a hangout spot when the weather is nice. Their hush puppies are great. The service can be a bit slow though, so not the place to go if you're in a rush. - Janine vN
Delicious, creamy, homemade, and excellent choice of flavors. Dont pass by! - Rebecca Laus
Such a great place for all ages! Kinda expensive but so worth it. - Erin Marie
Beautiful area. Multitude of different stores, and a wonderful area to walk in. I did it at night and the area was quiet, well lit, and it felt very safe. - Dale Andrews
