Reviews
So, aside from the food being amazing and such an amazing price, the service is excellent. Everyone was so nice and answered all the questions we had about the different dishes. Also, for a non-NOLA spot, the gumbo is fantastic! I wish I could eat here everyday…it’s that good. Try this place out, you won’t regret it!
Also, the bathrooms are so clean. That’s a huge plus! In fact, it’s one of the cleanest restaurants I’ve ever been to. Everything was perfect!
As someone originally from Maryland, my experience was awful. I received overcooked crabs filled with water and that had mushy meat (see photo)!
Calling these crabs Maryland-style is a disgrace. It was clear that the crabs were just reheated (NOT COOKED FRESH AS THE OWNER CLAIMS) and were not steamed fresh upon ordering. The cost was prohibitive and a waste of money for the dozen crabs I ordered. The crab pretzel was decent but had way too much mayo. NEWS FLASH to the owner’s response below THERE IS MAYO in the crab dip you put on top of your pretzel! It’s one of the main ingredients, and y’all put far too much of it in your recipe.
Overall I would not recommend this place. Certainly not worth the drive from New Orleans.
In response to the owner’s comments: you cannot ensure the crabs were cooked fresh when you were not there, and there was no manager on duty on 1/29/23. In fact, the kid at the cash register didn’t even know the difference between male and female crabs. Take ownership of your lackluster execution of mushy crabs that have no business being called “Maryland Style” when you’re not delivering excellence.
First, the crab cakes a severe disappointment. Not very flavorful and tons of shell pieces. Normally the shells wouldnt bother me, grew up picking my own crabs and all, but it was a lot.
The salad was decent and fried chicken on top was good . The shrimp roll was good but for a six inch popboy with no sides, it was somewhat pricey and I didn’t feel it was worth the cost.
Surprisingly enough, the kids meal had the best food by far and the fried flounder was amazing. However, the broccoli serves with it was saturated in cayenne and didn’t realize until after my child had a few bites. I tried it and it definitely wasn’t child friendly. Overall very odd choice or mistake to have that level of spice on steamed broccoli .The staff offered to fix it promptly though.
I’m willing to give this a second shot with different menu items but this was a very bad first impression. The staff was super friendly and that’s always a welcoming experience, but the quality of food really didn’t offset the price .
We also ordered 3 steamed blue crabs and a half pound of steamed shrimp!. Obviously we over ordered and will have another meal for two at home tomorrow.
For those who do not know, the blue crab is a great delicacy and found mainly out of Lake Pontchartrain and the La.Gulf. The blue crabs in the Chesapeake Bay are mostly exported from Louisiana. The steamed crabs were excellent and shrimp perfectly steamed, seasoned, and easy to take from the shell.
I am a hard critic on seafood and I highly recommend this restaurant!
We ate here tonight with our parents and the food was FANTASTIC! Three of us got the fried soft shell crabs. They were really big and THE best any of us have had! We also got the crab cake and it had so much crab it barely held together! The crab soup was good and the gumbo was excellent too! Even the salad dressings and sauces were incredible!
It isn’t cheap but worth the money to us. It came to $60 for two after tip.
The atmosphere was more like a deli than a dinner place but…. Ya gotta start somewhere! I prefer a dining experience BUT, we will DEFINITELY be back for more!
