Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"First time dining at Carrol's Creek Cafe. Unbelievable food, great views and a server who knew what the kitchen was best at. We took his suggestions and the meal we experienced was absolutely fabulous. I would rate this the best meal we have had in the area in many, many years and I know it will be the first place I recommend to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience."

Review 4 for Carrol's Creek Cafe

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"We always enjoy Carrols Creek. It is one of the better settings in downtown Annapolis (okay, even though it's across the water in Eastport). In addition to one of the better views of the Annapolis water scene (especially when you can sit outside) it has charm, excellent food and wine, and great servers. It's more 'open' seating atmosphere can be a little noisy for some but we tend to ignor it. One pet peeve, the tables in the booths are a tiny bit too high for the seats; you might feel compelled to sit on your coat, or ask for a table."

Review 7 for Carrol's Creek Cafe

Overall Rating 5.0 out of 5 (Outstanding)
"Perfect place for a business lunch (or any lunch for that matter)! Food, service and the "pace of the place" makes for a most enjoyable experience. And, overlooking Spa Creek certainly adds to the ambiance. I've always had wonderful meals there and I'd highly recommend it to newbies to the Annapolis restaurant scene and to all the local patrons that continue to keep Carrol's Creek one of Eastport's "go to" joints for low-key and high-brow meals. I cannot imagine anyone not having a delightful dining experience there."

Overall Rating 3.0 out of 5 (Good)
"The food is traditional but very good. I had the cioppino and my companion had the NY strip -- both were flavorful and prepared well. For dessert we had the creme caramel and apple crepe -- these were solid, but nothing mind-blowing. I was kind of surprised by the maraschino cherry on the crepe -- made it seem like a child's dessert. The atmosphere is nice but a little country club generic."

"My husband and I have been to Carrol's Creek many times, and the food and service are always outstanding. When ordering a multi-course meal, the timing of the food brought to the table is just right--you never feel rushed to finish a course, nor is the main course coming out just minutes after you receive your appetizer. Sometimes it can get a little noisy in the dining room, but the seating is very comfortable and spacious."

"We went for Annapolis Restaurant Week and were pleasantly surprised at the vast menu offered and the amount of food that arrived. Each course was delicious! However, what made the meal was the incredible service. Jahlil was our waiter and he was extremely pleasant and polite. He spoke well with great diction and did not hurry while reading specials. He also seemed concerned that each dish arrive correctly and we were not rushed. And, my water glass remained full! That's always a plus. He was an absolute pleasure. We'll be returning for sure!"

"We went for Restaurant Week. I worked at this restaurant years ago, and it had been a favorite then. Over the past few years, the food has been mediocre, and service never that good.

Our most recent meal was not great. My husband ordered the tuna appetizer, which was of a grade you might find at a much less expensive establishment. Portions were also pretty small. The steak my husband ordered was nearly see-through, and was a really cheap grade of beef. He did say the accompanying asparagus was tasty, but the mashed potatoes looked and tasted like what you would expect from a place serving buffet-style meals.

My cioppino was fair. Had a good amount of seafood in it, but the mussels were cooked to the point of no return, the s

"Carrols Creek never disappoints. It's on the pricey side so we save it for special occasions but the food is wonderful, service is perfectly timed and it has one of the best wine lists of any restaurant in the area.

"Our server, Matt, was outstanding!! He was meticulous in meeting our requests! He's a definite keeper!!! The food was beyond our anticipation... very scrumptious to the last morsel!!! Please keep those wonderful chefs too!! We'll be back and have already shared about our experience with several others. Pleeeeeese keep on doing what you're doing and keep those chefs as well. Also, we had a special situation after we arrived, and the desk hostess and another gal resolved our needs beautifully!! They definitely went the extra mile! Thanks again for a great experience!!!! We are already planning to return with our husbands (from Philly area).
Bless you all!!! T. Sharp

"Our first time going to Carrol's Creek. We were getting together with a bunch of friends, but all the different parties were running late. The hostess was so kind--she offered to let us sit at the table despite being only a partial arrival. We opted for the bar where we could see the delicious Sunday brunch. When we were seated, we were right next to the window looking over the harbor. It was winter/recently snowed, but none of us were cold. The food was very good--not over the top, but a solid great brunch and, most importantly, there was something for everyone (including the vegetarians). Drinks came with brunch, which was awesome; and everyone was SO kind and fun and great to all of us. Everyone was very happy with the pick; thanks!"

"This was my wife and my first visit to Carrol Creek Cafe. We went early enough to get a nice table by the window. The server was polite and knowledgeable. The food was excellent. There was a bar playing jazz. We didn't go in but will come back for that aspect later we decided. We were pleased."

"Food and service is reliable, consistently very good, no matter what you order. Good choices of ocean fish and seafood on the menu with a couple of good expectations for non-fish eaters. Soup, salad and dessert prix-fix add-on option to your entree for $14. Can always depend on Carrol's Creek to deliver all the ingredients for a special occasion dinner. Reasonable prices on wine list with very nice choices by the glass too. Great place to take our out-of-town guests for dinner, with the always impressive view of the Annapolis Harbor & Eastport Marina. Great location with easy parking at the Marina lot. Ask for a table by a window. Best table in the house is at the window in small alcove (with only 3 tables) just outside the glass room."

"We had the seafood greek salad at lunch. I think that the salad needs some other types of lettuce greens and more herbs in the salad dressing. The cream of crab soup was lacking crab meat and tasted like it had cheese in it. It could be improved."

"We had a nice family brunch. We chose Carrol's Creek because we have been there many times over the years for special occasions and had always had a great experience. Although the food was as good as we had remembered - the noise level in the main dining area was extremely high with probably a dozen or more young kids creating a commotion. I don't know if this was a fluke - but - I would be hesitant to return for brunch after an experience where we had a hard time hearing ourselves talk over the noise..."

"This is our favorite restaurant in this metropolitan area - DC and my wife and I enjoy going there be it for lunch or dinner. The food is always fresh and prepared well to our liking and as requested. From appetizers to coffee just can't be beat. However, Friday served Carol (my wife) a problem. We both ordered the 'surf and turf' and our waiter Robert is very good and has waited on us previously. However, prior to the meal being served we noticed that it was taking a bit longer and that he was involved with another table having a larger group. Thus, Carol's food was not as hot as it should have been and while she will not hesitate to have a soup or portion warmed up, she did not on this occasion as she had started to eat her dinner."

"Great first experience at this establishment. It was too cold to eat on the outside decks, however that didn't take away from the evening. First class service and food all the way. Our waiter was VERY attentive and polite and did an excellent job making sure our needs were met. The food was fantastic and well priced for the quality. We can't wait to go again!"

"Carol's Creek has a great brunch. In addition to the usual brunch fare (done very well) they had a whole salmon steamed as well as another fish blackened. The carver had beef, ham and lamb all available. The eggs benedict were nearly perfect and refreshed frequently. In addition to the waffles and french toast they had corn fritters, crunchy and sweet. They offer custom omelets ordered from your server and brought to the table. This is one of the best brunches in the area."
