Had a great birthday lunch with the family here. Nice views of downtown Annapolis. Friendly wait staff with an eagerness to please. Had a softshell crab platter that was amazing. Parking easy to find.

This is a date/special occasion restaurant with a beautiful view of Spa Creek docks, boats and in the evening, beautiful light glancing off the Naval Academy dome and the Maryland State House. However, the food was disappointingly average. While the prices matched the view, the culinary art did not. Even the specialties of the house, e.g. the crab soup and... More

We were visiting Annapolis for Mother's Day weekend and looking for waterfront dining options for seafood(my love for crab cakes!). We found Carrol's creek on Tripadvisor and we loved it. It is right on the waterfront and we had a table by the window overlooking the marina. Food was excellent, our favorites were the Cream of Crab soup and the... More

Carrol's Creek serves our favorite Sunday brunch. It is delicious and the servers are friendly and attentive. We met the owner and he is truly nice and a real gentleman. This restaurant is wonderful and we really appreciate the people who work there which makes it very special.

Our second time eating here - but first for lunch. The food was (again) very good - wonderful Blue Point oysters on the half shell and very good crab cakes. The setting on the outside tables provides a nice view of the harbor. Service was a little spotty by an obviously new waiter, but not too bad - he was... More

We sat outside on a beautiful afternoon and had fabulous crab cake sandwiches. If they use any Old Bay, it is virtually undetectable, thankfully. The crab cake is just good lump crab, among the best crab cakes anywhere, complemented by a nice dense bun. The wine list was quite reasonably priced, another positive attribute. You cannot do any better for... More

When my daughter and I visited Annapolis, we had a nice evening dinner at Carrols Creek 'Cafe'. The place is much more than a cafe. It represents fine simple dining with a great atmosphere. We found lots to like. Free evening parking, a sophisticated bar, friendly help and a waterfront view from our dinner table. The local seafood was fresh,... More

My wife and I were in Maryland visiting our G'daughter. It was Friday and she was in school so we looked for a place to splurge on lunch. We wanted to be on the water and found Carrol's Creek via Trip Advisor. What an awesome experience. Great views, excellent service, comfortable atmosphere, and food that hit it out of the... More

We were celebrating my husband's retirement, and had dinner at Carrol's Creek. The views of the marina are splendid! We had a window table, and faced the setting sun, but luckily were able to lower the blinds until the sun was low enough on the horizon to enjoy and not blind us. First glance at the menu doesn't show a... More

We met some friends at Carrol's Creek for dinner, and we were very pleased! The sunset views were very nice, the food was very good, as was the service. The server went over the menu, made suggestions and recommendations, and kept our beverage glasses filled. The food was delicious, and the views of the sunset and the marina were really... More
