Abbott's On Broad Creek - Laurel

The food was terrific, as always. I had the shrimp and grits and it was prepared as requested without the peppers and it was delicious. My wife had the pot roast with root vegetables and it was yummy. Our other guests were also delighted with their choices also. Abbott's is worth the trip from Salisbury for the innovative, fresh and beautifully prepared. Kristin our server was great the warm, charming and very attentive to our needs. As I said at the beginning we are always pleased when we go to Abbots.

The waitress vanished. I had to ask another server where she was. The salmon was warm, not not. The fish and chips where hot and crisp. It is unknown if the server forgot to put the order in or forgot to pick it up. The last visit for us. The chipotle mayo had just mayo.

Father's Day was extra special this year- as we enjoyed dinner at The drinks, salad, and crab cake were delicious, with the bread being a special treat. Dessert- creme brulee was exceptional. The staff was most pleasant and we look forward to returning to Abbott's soon.

Having made a reservation using open table I was disappointed when we arrived to be told that the host didn't have my reservation, and that the manager is the only person with access to the open table reservations and that they don't keep the reservation book in the entrance updated with those. Then because they weren't expecting us, we were told it would be at least minutes because there were other people ahead of us waiting. After a few minutes we were told we could sit in the bar area and that a table in there would be less of a wait than the dining room. I checked after a few more minutes and found that there were seats at the bar top open. We were able to move one stool over so that we could sit together. We were greeted by one of the bartenders and were able to get drinks right away. We hadn't dined in the bar area before, so we didn't know there were happy hour specials and the bartender didn't offer that information to us, another bar patron told us about the happy hour burger special if you ordered before Our meals took about minutes from the time we ordered, burgers, one pot roast and an order of mussels. After about minutes I asked if there was a bread service, and they brought us out a basket. The food was better than average, mussels didn't come with a bowl for shells and the sides with the pot roast were very small. Both burgers were ordered with bacon but only one came out with it, and had to be brought back to the kitchen. They have live music that started a little after so we were no longer able to talk amongst ourselves because of the volume.

We get to Abbott's in Laurel as often as we can. The food and service is always outstanding. They have an excellent selection of beers on tap and their menu is always fresh and interesting. Highly recommend!
