    A thunderstorm had just come through and we were happy to be able to sit out on the deck - turned into a nice evening. We enjoyed our calamari appetizer and all enjoyed our meals (there were 5 of us). Our server was efficient and we felt well taken care of. Looking forward to our next visit!

    Jen was an absolutely perfect server. We tried the half and half crab soup, wings, cheeseburger, stuffed rockfish, crabby potatoes and crab dip. It was all delicious. Drinks were very good as well. Would definitely recommend this place.

    Went to celebrate my brother-in-law's birthday. Party of six. The service was great, the food was wonderful. Beautiful waterfront location. They have a pier and several groups arrived by boat while we were there.

    A great restaurant with wonderful atmosphere, a bar side separate from the restaurant side. As well as indoor and outdoor seating. Service has been friendly and attentive each time my wife and I have visited Food is delicious! This time, I ordered the chicken and broccoli and my wife ordered the black and Bleu salad. Highly recommend!

    Great restaurant with a great view. Casual dining. We went on a Sunday afternoon - it was a bit busy in dining room so we opted to eat in bar. Shared the seafood pizza with my son. The pizza was spectacular with generous shrimp and crab. My husband had the soft shell crab. We also had the shrimp topped with crab.

    We (my wife, brother and myself) visited for lunch on a nice summer day in July. We sat outside and it was comfortable with the various fans turned on. If I could, I would give our visit a 4.5. The service was excellent. As for the food: my brother loved his soft crab sandwich, my wife and I split ours---a seafood club and a tuna wrap. The tuna wrap was also very good. The 4.5 (instead of a 5) would be due to the seafood club not being as tasty as expected. I am not sure what was missing but I did not get as much crab/shrimp salad taste as I was expecting.

    FABULOUS! Great food, vibe, staff and even music this past Friday night. Sat at the bar and ordered a delicious dinner of various small plates shared amongst three people. Got to try numerous items on menu. So much fun!! Beautiful location, and though it was chilly, went outside on the dock to take in the view and it's exquisite. The Commodore's Toast in particular was just amazing. Thank you!!

    Hubby decided to dine here Saturday evening. We both ordered the steak and cake (crabcake). For my sides, also, I ordered broccoli and a baked potato, hubby picked the zucchini and squash VOD and mashed potatoes. Prior to our entrΓ©es being served, hubby ordered the bowl of cream of crab soup. It was good and had the perfect creamy consistency of cream of crab soup. I took a few bites and my food and was full, so I had to take my food to go. We did share dessert, strawberry short cake, which was okay, I thought they had creme brulee, but nope. The wait service was hospitalable. It will say the food here is pricey.

    It was my first time at Carson's Creekside, but upon entering the parking lot I knew I had been at this place before, many many years ago. That's when it was Whitey's and Dot's. Haven't been at that way for a long time, no car to go that far, so a friend of mine took me and my son. And I loved it. The waitress was very nice and did an excellent job. The food was delicious. My son really loved the Crabby Mac. And that is unusual because he doesn't usually eat crab meat but loves Mac and Cheese. I got the half rack of ribs with two sides. I loved the deck in the back and I even walked out on the pier. And my favorite part is the view from the deck. It was a great day, even though a bit windy. But it was very comfortable eating there. Like someone said in a comment I saw online it's like being on vacation in Middle River. I intend to go back as soon as possible. Maybe next time with my sister(s)

    This place is a hidden gem. Food was bomb. Staff were bomb. Scenery was bomb. Prices are decent. Me and my bf had the best time! Will definitely be returning again and again. Felt like we were on a mini vacation somewhere and not in MD. Even their other customers were super friendly. Everyone smiled and spoke. It was almost too perfect!

    My wife and I were on the other side of town, and we decided to go to Carson's Creekside Restaurant for lunch outdoors. It's mid November, but it's sunny and warm. The name, Creekside, is appropriate as you can see from the pictures. We both had cream of crab soup. It was creamy, mildly spicy, and delicious. There was plenty of crab meat. My wife had haddock with sweet potato fries and a salad. The fries and salad were good. The haddock wasn't very good. I had the chicken pot pie. There was plenty of chicken. The crust was crisp. I had plenty of food. The taste was excellent. Our server was friendly and efficient. If you are in the neighborhood of Martin Airport, Carson's Creekside Restaurant is close by and is a scenic place to eat.

    Today I was there for an event. The staff took such good care of us. I understand they were great when it came to handling the event booking, setting up for it, and allowing folks in to add decorations. So I'd recommend them if you need to hold an event. I've been to Carson's Creekside several times for lunch as well. As was the case today, the food is always delicious and so fresh and the servers are knowledgeable and efficient. On nice days it's a bonus to sit on the covered deck and be right on the water.

    Had a nice dinner and enjoyed our experience. Good service. Lovely waterside location. Menu included a nice variety of choices. Prices were reasonable for some things but a bit too high for others. 2 sides come with an entree - but there's an upcharge for a baked potato because it isn't a usual side? Never heard of that elsewhere. Rolls - one tiny roll per person? These are minor issues compared to the nice overall experience. However, sometimes it's the little things that make the most impact. Still, we would go back. So, none of that is a deal breaker....

    I’ve eaten crab cakes all up and down the east coast and these were by far the best crab cakes I’ve ever had to date.

  • 2/5 Jonathan W. 11 months ago on Google
    Went here for the first time in a while. Service was A+. Restaurant is clean and has a nice view. The expanded parking compared to what they used to have is nice. Cream of crab was also great. Unfortunately, my meal was otherwise pretty soul less. Got the mahi mahi and there was no seasoning or color to it whatsoever. It looked like it was boiled. My mashed potatoes were also cold. The whole meal was just plated very poorly. I think whoever prepared it, or, err, microwaved it was not having a good day. I'm not a picky eater, either. I've had this previously from here and it looked and tasted great.

    We were here as a part of a big Happy Hour group. So pleasantly surprised at how the waitress, kitchen and bar were able to keep up with us. So many restaurants in the area are short staffed and service is unfortunately poor. Kudos to Creekside and waitress. Well done. Also, entertainment from gentlemen singing old country music was a hit for me. We will be back πŸ˜€

    One of the best Maryland crab soups I have had. The rest of the meal was also good. Service was good and bathroom was clean. You may not consider this important, but a dirty bathroom speaks volumes about the business. Definitely worth the drive from Pennsylvania just for the soup!!

    I went here for the mother's Day buffet. I really enjoyed the crab cakes and most of the food. The oysters were very good but unfortunately they ran out very early so I didn't get to eat many oysters. I was kind of disappointed that they ran out. The location is pretty, being right on the water and we were lucky to get a nice table outside with a wonderful view of the river. They were probably under- staffed on mother's Day because we didn't get the service we were expecting. We needed some dishes cleared off the table and we had to take them and place them somewhere else ourselves to make room. With a buffet, they need to have people coming around to clear the used plates off the tables relatively quickly. I would recommend this place if you like seafood and views of the water.

    Came here recently and had Fried Green Tomatoes with Crab Dib was delicious. Nice restaurant right on the water.

  • 5/5 Peggy M. 1 year ago on Google
    It was my first time there. The bar was packed with people waiting for the band to start. There was also a dining room and the patio out back. We sat outback we both ordered turkey bacon wraps and I got onion rings while my niece got sweet potato fries. Food was good and there was plenty of it. I believe our waitress name is Ave now she is a good waitress.

  • 5/5 Valerie Kessler A. 1 year ago on Google
    Went here the Saturday before mother's day for a family get together. Sitting out on the porch on a nice day was very relaxing, definitely recommend that if able. Service was very nice. Food was good, I quite enjoyed what I got (Commodores Toast) and did not hear anyone complain about their food in my party. We were all quite full when we left. Inside was quite noisy when we left so I would say that was the biggest downside. I would definitely recommend arriving early and sitting outside, weather permitting.

    This place is lovely...we sat outside on the deck ( go around 815ish if its hot /sunny out the sun isn't forgiving on the deckπŸ₯΅). Ordered a crab pretzel, chicken wings which we delicious and a club sandwich which was really good!!! The 32 Oz crush was okay I don't feel it had enough liquor in it πŸ˜• ...overall nice and food was on point!

    We recently held a surprise party at Carson's and could not have been happier with the event. The food was delicious, (especially the chicken chesapeake!) the space was welcoming, and the staff was incredible. Everyone had a great time. Thank you!!!
