Reviews for The Abbey Burger Bistro in Baltimore, MD
Pretty good burger, fries were fine. They do give you a BYO form to make your own burger. Burger was THICK, and the bun was... highly toasted. Pretty good flavors too. The environment is an old pub feel, not the most clean. Overall, no real complaints,but nothing too impressive beyond the food. Read more
I had it and I LOVE IT!!! This place Burger is the best I have ever had!!! Yes! It?s that good. I had the Baltimore Burger and I... was amazed how tasty the burger was. Everything is soooo well balanced for this burger. Some burger can be too greasy or dry,but here everything in the Baltimore Burger is just about right. I mean WOW!!! The old bay seasoning on the wings were alsogreat too. The staffs here were very friendly and very helpful. If you are in DMV you got to check out this place. Why are youstill reading this review? Go now!!! Check out yourself. Read more
I don't know if our experience was unique or if the whole restaurant was having an off night, but I did not have a great meal... here. We visited on a Thursday and from start-to-finish the service was disconnected. They seem to split responsibilities soyou can only order food and drink from separate people. That makes it difficult to put drink orders in because the bar staff didnot visit tables much after the other server took our food order. We also struggled to get our check after asking for it frommultiple people. I ended up having to awkwardly stand by the bar after ~20 min and begging ANOTHER person for help because wewere really desperate to get out of there. In terms of the food, my husband and I both got burgers that had a smoked element.They were both way on the sweet side, with the smokiness overpowered everything else. I don't know if Abbey burger legitimatelysmokes stuff or if they use liquid smoke, but neither of us could stand to finish our burgers. The other diner with us got theBaltimore burger and expressed that it was fine. At our table, we also tried the alligator bites, which were unassuming butfine. Between the 3 of us, we also tried the house-made chips, the onion rings ($3 upcharge), and the waffle fries ($4upcharge). The chips were pretty burnt/bitter and didn't even have much seasoning. We threw salt on them, but didn't reallystick since they were cooled. Didn't finish them. The onion rings were fine, but the coating reminded me of pancake batter fromthe sweetness of it. The waffle fries were rock-hard. ??????????? Not sure if they were old fries that were re-fried or if theyjust sat in the oil for a long time. They weren't warm, so I assume they'd been lying around dying somewhere. (Did I mentionthey were an extra $4??) Credit I can give to the staff is that they re-fired the waffle fries no problem. New batch tastedfine, albeit it still lacked seasoning. I guess the kitchen isn't big on salt? ??????? They're getting 2 stars Read more
Was a recommendation from a local friend, nice, rustic place tucked into an alley, a menu consisting of a variety of bar foods... made from different domestic and game meats. We went with sliders and alligator bites. A really fun meal, the staff was greatand helpful, would recommend! Read more
04/17/2022 EDIT: We stopped by here again since we were in the neighborhood and to give it a second chance. I only ordered... sides, whe my fiance order the Baltimore Burger. The 911 sauce wings were crispy and hot. The fries were also hot and wellseasoned! My fiance said his burger was on the heavy side so don't order it unless you're starving! I will still give it 4stars, customer service was great, but the service is kinda slow even though only one other customer was there. EDIT: I'veupdated my review from 3 stars to 4 stars for excellent customer service. I contacted the manager and we were able to sortthings out. I will be back soon to give them another try. Our burgers came out kind of cold and the duck wasn't anythingspecial and dry. Read more
Great place! They serve food later than most places in the neighborhood, and the food seems quite good. Friend got a burger, I... got the loaded waffle fries. All of it was very good! Staff were very friendly, and the place was filled with regulars(according to the bartender)... And in my book, anywhere with many regulars is a good place to be. It's kind of tucked away inan alley and not readily visible from the street, but I'd highly encourage you to give it a try. Ample indoor seating, and anice sized bar. Sorry for the weird angle menu photos... The light reflection was tricky to deal with. Read more
The food was great with some awesome build-your-own burger options. The tots covered in can dip were delicious too! What really... made the visit though, was the staff. Steven, Katie, and Mary made the night for us. Steven is definitely the life of the partyand invested in making sure all the patrons were having a blast. My brother said it was the best birthday dinner he'd had inyears. Read more
