The interior leaves a bit to be desired -- but it's a crab house, and that's what they are like. The crabs were great -- hot, heavy, covered in kosher salt flakes. Perfection. They use JO seasoning here though, not Old Bay...which is fine, but I dont prefer it.
Biggest issue? Their crab cake was a really sad excuse for a Maryland crab cake. Barely edible. Filler meat. Seemed like a previously frozen kind. They would be better served increasing the price by 1 or 2 dollars of the crab cake and actually making a legitimate Maryland lump crab cake. I would never bring someone from out of town to try it to show them what crab cakes are like. Not good.
The tiki bar area outside is very cool and the wait staff was great.
Well, if you just want to hang out and have a beverage by the water the outdoor bar area is cool. But if you want to dine in forget about it. Seriously bad service.... and WAY over priced food. Three bartenders stood with their backs to the bar chatting it up while I waited for them to notice me. Finally one smiled and greeted me and I asked for a menu. Then that was it. Not a single bartender or staffmember came back to see if I wanted to order. I gave them about ten minutes and 20 walk by's before I gave up and walked out. We visited here before to dine in and the food was ok. It was not great, and was not worth the money they charge... although it smelled yummy inside.. ( I am a huge MD crab fan and the inside smells like steamed crab heaven)... However, I won't return to dine in... I will go back to enjoy the waterside bar and the good company. Its a well known watering hole for those who ride the iron horse, and that is the ONLY reason I'll go back. And beware... if you give them a card to "run a tab" they swipe it and it puts a "hold" on your funds for up to 25 bucks.
