Abbotts, Noank CT
July 5, 2016
On our way back from Mystic Aquarium for my daughters 10th birthday we decided it was finally time for me to try the ever so published and raved about Abbott's Lobster in the Rough. Well to start I thought the price was steep for the amount of meat (1/4 lb on a hamburger bun). Seemed to be mainly (not MAINEly) the tail with a couple claw pieces thrown in. The bun had a burnt taste as it was cooked on the griddle/grill. I did not taste much of their creamery butter which is okay if the meat is sweet. The lobster meat was fresh but not so sweet.
View was beautiful. Coleslaw was tasty.
The kids had fun feeding the stripers on the pier. Not what you want to hear when reading about lobster rolls.
Positive note - Tuesday, July 5, 5:40 p.m. no lines.
Unfortunately, I wasn't that impressed, the hype was a tad overstated.
Overall: 7.7 (ambience points included again)
