Really great crabs . They only had medium on Saturday but they were really heavy for their size. The crab pretzel was delish! Diana was a wonderful server and went out of her way to help us out.

Greg S.

The crabs were large and meaty, and although we were here for a catered event , the buffet options were really delicious. The sauce on the BBQ chicken was on-point.

Get the jumbo lump crab cakes ! The best I've ever had and it comes with fried pickels . Shawn the waiter is very nice and will show you how to eat the crabs if you get them.

Every once in awhile, you need to give in and act like a tourist . Sit out on the deck at sunset , pick a dozen large steamed crabs and drink a cold beer . Read more: http://bit.ly/UhNxqf

Make sure you ask for your free angry mallet for checking in, tastes like fruit punch kool aid but with alcohol . XL crabs were worth the price. Corn on the cob isn't steamed with the crabs :(

I schedule an appoinment and when we got here they couldn't find me in the system. The host said there was NOTHING he could do about it. We wait around 20 minutes. Anyway good crabs ! Ask for Lauren :)

If you've never had crab before, this is a great place. The waitress was super helpful and broke down how to eat crab . And it was really, really tasty.

Meg ODonnell

The lobster stuffed potato was tasty! The beer on draft is too warm. We had 2 each, both warm. We were missing a side item from our meal & salad dressing & never got it. Mac & cheese was stouffers.

Ben Liebowitz

Delicious Crabs ! The crab pretzel was tasty too, covered with crabmeat and cheese .. yummy!

Some of the best seafood in Baltimore. First Lady Michelle Obama ate here last summer. Hang out on the floating pier for atmosphere.

The fried crab is delicious

Jennifer Meyett

Crabs were terrific. The staff could be a little friendlier.

When I went on 2/19th they ran out of the twice baked potatoes and broccoli . They gave us 2 deserts for free but we were still looking forward to the twice baked potatoes .

If you have a party of more than 4 people make sure you bring your cash. They will only split a bill two ways. We had close to $500 in sales and wanted to split it among 3 credit cards. The manager
