Abbott's Lobster in the Rough

Fodor's Review:

If you want some of the state's best lobsters, mussels, crabs, or clams on the half shell, head down to this unassuming seaside lobster shack in sleepy Noank, a few miles southwest of Mystic. Most seating is outdoors or on the dock, where the views of Noank Harbor are magnificent.

Reviewed by IColeman from Texas on 6/17/10
We ate at Abbott's this past weekend. First, the lobster "roll" was served on a sesame seed hamburger bun! We are not from New England, but understand this is just wrong. We ordered corn on the cob and my husband had to send his back for another one. He ordered 1/2 dozen oysters and one was bad. The lady at the table next to us sent her lobster back because it had no claw meat. Don't know what's happened to Abbott's since the Fodor's review but we won't go again nor would we recommend it. Maine is the place for lobster rolls!
