Why drive to MD to have best whole Blue Crabs done MD-style or in a garlic sauté + MD Crabcakes when u can come here?! MD Crab & NE Clam chowdas (altho' watery) are tasty. Order drinks & wait it out!
Know what ur getting...ask waitress to bring #1 (larger) vs #2 (smaller) Blue Claw crabs to compare sizes - varies daily! I eat 'em Shanghainese way-simply steamed-w/ Chiangkang Black Vinegar sauce !
Alaskan King Crab @$42/lb (1 jumbo leg) supplier is frm CA & was fresh but meat was brinier than sweet. Blackened Grouper-fresh, tasty & not too oily-good find! Potato salad was bland & starchy today.
Best mussels ever !! And the service ,outstanding ????. So happy to bring friends here, and watch us all enjoy Just outstanding food and wonderful outdoor dining atmosphere ????
Bruhhhhh this place is amazing! So many fresh seafood choices ! Would recommend the seafood combo , broiled or fried! Great service too! ???? ???? ????
My other faves: NE clam chowder , MD-style Crabcakes , local fried scallops , potato salad , & corn on the cob (when in season July~early Sept)!
crab cakes & clam chowder is the way to go! be prepared to wait though.
Looking for the best seafood place in town ? Come here. I've been coming to Mud City for many years with my family. Enjoy. *Award-Winning Crab Cakes are the best!*
Even if U don’t leave room for dessert after this sumptuous seafood meal, get the Key Lime pie to go..it’s the best 1 I’ve had in a while!
Awesome food and a whole dining experience. Be prepared to wait because their isnt a large seating area but its BYOB and they have picnic tables you can order apps outside while you wait.
I love the garlic mussels - they are to die for- my husband loves the garlic clams . You can't go wrong with the jumbo lump crab cakes - all crab meat . ( tie breaker )!
Not a fan of Ipswich clam w/ a siphon (gross foot/tail). I go 4 smaller Littlenecks or medium-sized Topnecks / Middlenecks but wish MC’s steamed 1’s weren’t gritty. No Manila & Razor Clams found here
Just had a family dinner here everything people had was excellent. Butterfly shrimp salmon and calamari . Excellent.
Do yourself a favor-pick out a nice fat dungeness crab from the tank and have them serve it to you "garlic style" its insanely delicious. Then come on here and thank me. Your welcome in advance
Great place. Fresh seafood . They have a limited micro brew selection but still allow byob - the mussels were to die for
Everything is good! Save room for the Banana Chimichanga...delicious!
Best seafood bisque I ever had. Food was delicious. The best hidden treasure around.
Not a fan of Ipswich clam w/ a siphon (gross foot/tail). I go 4 smaller Littlenecks or medium-sized Topnecks / Middlenecks & wish MC’s steamed 1’s weren’t gritty. No Manila & Razor Clams to be found:(

Try the wasabi sauce, it'll clear your sinuses
had the "lump meat" crabcakes @$24.99 for two..they were NOT good..dry and fishy tasting as well ...would NEVER go back..feel like we were ripped off.
Snow crabs were delicious and can't beat the BYOB !
