    Update 02/04/22 Stopped in tonight for dinner ordered our usual dinner and when the lady gave me the total it was different from what I use to pay. I looked at the menu and all of the prices have gone up, so if you have a menu at home done go by the prices listed add at least a dollar to each meal. Even though the price has increased the food still tastes great.

    P1. Roast Pork with Chinese Vegetable

    Who knew that a small takeout Chinese restaurant attached to a gas station would be so good. WD are very impressed. The pork fried rice is rich and flavorful. They currently have a pickup window for orders during the Covid-19 shutdown. Call ahead. Well done China King.

    General Tso Chicken and Singapore Noodles DELICIOUS

    I've been so ill lately and I got my usual wonton soup for my husband and plain steamed shrimp and broccoli for me and my son. No sauce no rice. Very healthy and delicious and this place is amazing. Trying to live a healthy lifestyle is hard but places like this are my saving grace! I can eat out and it's 100% fresh and good for me

    Great location at the end of a small town road and on the shore. Big dining rooms and a fun bar…read more Service was just ok. Young girl didn't want to be there but I get it. Probably a summer job. Crab soup was a 5. Delicious with chuck of crab. Fish Tacos a 5. Big, well seasoned fish with a corn salsa. Could have used more sauce. Crab cake was a 5. Choices are blackened, fried, or broiled. Went with broiled and it was excellent. Great cakes here with not too much filler. Fries and onion rings a 3. Nothing special.

We arrived around 6:30 PM and were surprised to see the parking lot pretty empty. We sat at the bar and were greeted quickly by the bartender, who took our drink order. Both of us ordered the Mrs. Maryland Club, which is made with shrimp salad, a crab cake, bacon, lettuce, and tomato. The sandwich arrived fairly quickly and looked good, but right away we noticed something seemed different from our last visit. The biggest disappointment was the size of the crab cake and amount of shrimp salad. The last time we were here, the crab cake covered the entire sandwich and shrimp salad was falling off the sandwich. It was one of the reasons we remembered it so fondly. This time, the crab cake was noticeably smaller just a little bigger than a golf ball the shrimp salad was just 7 baby shrimp and the chips I got maybe 12-15 chips and half of them were rubbery, overall the sandwich just didn't seem as substantial as we remembered. The little shrimp salad had good flavor, the bacon was cooked nicely, and everything tasted fresh. It just didn't live up to the memory of our previous visit, not worth $21 for sure. Service was friendly, and the food came out quickly. The atmosphere was relaxed, and as always, the waterfront location is a nice place to enjoy a meal. Overall, the Mrs. Maryland Club is still a good sandwich, but based on our experience, the portions seem to have gotten a lot smaller. We'll likely return again, but we hope to see the sandwich brought back to the size and quality that made it so memorable the first time.

I came down over the weekend, and by Monday the machines were "hot," giving out receipts for spins over $40. Coincidentally, Mr. Abner's 60th birthday was being celebrated that same week, and the drawing from those receipts was scheduled for Tuesday...the day of his birthday celebration. Someone even hit the jackpot that day, which had everyone excited and ready to play. Then I came back on Wednesday, and suddenly there were no more receipts, no spins over $40, and the machines were completely dead. The difference was like night and day. After seeing that, I seriously question whether the machines or payouts are being adjusted. IM CONVINCED ... others as well. This is why folks leave and go across the street to Rod and Reel. Years ago, it used to be pretty good. Fair play... Abner's, why do this? Customers spend money and deserve a fair, transparent experience. Food is great... crabs are awesome. The machines?? RIGGED!!

    This is a great little restaurant right on the water at the north end of Chesapeake beach…read more We met some friends there for dinner last night. The restaurant is part of the Herrington Harbor complex. It's a neat waterfront property with some tables overlooking the harbor. Although it was very cold outside, the restaurant was warm and inviting. Our table was ready right on time for our reservation. The server was friendly and knowledgeable. We started with fried pickles and crab dip. The fried pickles were very thick, which made them unique. The crust seemed to be cornmeal based, and was extra crispy. The crab dip was very cheesy. It was delicious, but I wish it had a little more crab. My wife had the meatloaf. Tasty, plenty of beef, and a different take on meatloaf. I had the buffalo chicken sandwich and it was excellent. Crispy and saucy at the same time. The grilled cheese and crab soup looked good - I'll add them to my must try list. Service, food, ambiance were all top notch. Get out of the city, and drive til you hear waves for a great dining experience!

When we pulled into the parking lot, it was completely packed, which worried me since I didn't think we'd need a reservation before 5 p.m. To my surprise, when we walked in the restaurant was only partially filled, and the bar area was empty, so we took seats there so we could also watch the college football games that were on the tvs. The bartender explained that she had noticed the same thing when she arrived -- the lot was full, but it turned out there was a wedding reception scheduled next door later in the evening. We already knew what we wanted before we left home: the pork tacos, which are a favorite of ours. My wife ordered hers with cucumber salad, while I went with the fresh-cut fries. Both dishes came out just as good as always -- flavorful, fresh, and consistent. Between the quality of the food, the relaxed atmosphere, and even some live music outside, it made for another enjoyable visit. We'll definitely be back.

    A few weeks after moving to the DC region, my husband and I decided to make a trip out to…read moreChesapeake Beach just for the crab and the experience. On our first try, we got lost in DC and never found the correct freeway to get to the beach--3 hours wasted! Second try-- same deal. Finally, we got smart phones and figured out how to get East of DC. The following is our 100% factual experience. When we pulled into the dirt parking lot of Abner's Crab House, I could tell my husband was already re-thinking the our restaurant choice. The decor from the outside looks rustic and authentic so I talked him into getting lunch at Abner's (we're new to the East coast and just HAD to try some crabs...). We were seated outside near a tributary and some trash cans that were swarming with flies and smelled much worse than low-tide. There was one other table of people outside near us. At this point, I revealed to my husband that on the East Coast, people straight up crack and eat whole crabs (this offended his Mid-Western sensibilities) and he ordered a crab-cake sandwich. I ordered 6 whole crabs and our waitress taught me how to smash them with a mallot,"remove their lungs", and eat the meat. I was feeling VERY cave-woman at this point. Husband's face? Priceless. The food was nothing special to me, it was a new experience to eat crabs this way but I could not get over the smell of the trash cans and the flies. About half-way through our meal, the most surreal and bizarre thing happened. A little boy and his mother brought out a karaoke machine, set it up about 4 feet from us, and the mother started belting into the microphone. Since it was far too loud for me to hear my own thoughts, let alone speak with my husband: I continued my crab-smashing/lung removing lunch in silence. The next thing we know, the little boy puts on a top-hat and starts singing and dancing to several Michael Jackson songs. The performance was complete with crotch-grabs and moon-walking. Remember there was ONE other table of people sitting outside... Weirdest. Day. Ever.
