I went to this restaurant with a group of ladies from my community. We chose it because of the 4.3 star rating. So I have to be honest. It was not a good experience. We had reservations, so the owner knew she would have 25-30 people for lunch that day. There was one waitress, one cook, and the owner. The waitress was very busy, and the owner sat at the counter and did not offer to help her. We arrived at 11:30, and I received my food at 12:45. The plastic glass I received my first drink in was stained and very unappetizing. They were out of my first choice of soda. The second choice came, and it was flat. I had never had Maryland crab cakes, so even though they were very pricey, I wanted to try them. They were out of the soft shell, so I ordered the baked crab cakes. There was absolutely nothing special about them, but they were OK. The fries were very limp and not good; the coleslaw was good, but the serving was about a tablespoonful in a small condiment container. My bill came to $42. $20 would have been too much for what I got. Maybe they were having a bad day, but I could not recommend.

My first time at this fine establishment was yesterday. I’m from Salisbury, MD (Eastern Shore) and when they bought out an empty Fisher’s Popcorn bucket to put the crab shells in… that’s when I knew this was the real deal! I met the owner Ashley and she’s so wonderful! She’s from Maryland and knows what the hell she’s doing!!! Yall these crabs are the real deal.. the crab cake… the steamed shrimp!! Omg and the fries!!! I thought I was in Ocean City at Thrashers! With the malt vinegar!!! Whewwww honey chileeee …This place got it on lock! I’ll be back bringing ALL my Maryland folks here. FINALLY I’ve found a place that knows MD steamed crabs!!!!

First visit for my wife and I. We live about 2 miles from the deli and finally decided to stop in. We arrived just before noon. There was only one gentleman there taking orders, preparing the food and serving the customers. My wife and I ordered draft beers, unfortunately the first two brands we ordered the kegs were empty so we settled for our third choice out of the 4 that they carry. And the draft that we were finally successful at receiving was flat. The table that we sat at had not been wiped off from the previous customers that sat there. I had the Italian sub and my wife had grilled cheese and vegetable soup. The food was good but not worth the price being charged. At approximately 1pm the owner and another employee arrived to help out. The men's room was quite dirty and there was a bucket under the sink to catch any water that was leaking from the trap. My wife said the ladies room was in similar condition. Not sure what the issue was with the heat but it was quite cool inside with a small space heater running near the counter where you place your order. With all the little jobs that appeared needed to be done e were somewhat surprised the owner never got up from her seat at one of the tables to say hi or help out around the business. Our first and last time here. Way to many other great restaurants to choose from with much better prices and quality of food.

Went to check out their blue crabs for the first time and they didn’t disappoint. Alittle pricey, but I would go back. The crabs were delicious and meaty !!?Parking: It appears to have sufficient parking, but there were not a lot of people there on the day we visited, which I’m glad about

Being Marylanders, we are very particular about our crabs. The crabs were steamed perfectly with the right amount of seasoning. The soft crab sandwich was off the charts. Crabcakes were as good as Maryland has to offer. Highly recommend.

The Rueben is awesome! Better than Dagwood’s and theirs is pretty good. They are working on a remodel/rebranding and I wish them HUGE success.

The classic reuben sandwich was perfect, if a little messy to eat. The Italian coldcut sub was equally good. The fries were way better than average. Overall, a great place.

Great small business spot for fantastic true blue Maryland crabs, sides and drinks. We recently moved back east after decades living out west. Our family enjoyed our first crabs in years at a great little gem of a restaurant!
