My wife and I saw this place when we went on the Patriot Cruise tour and decided to check it out. We were definitely pleased with our decision. We sat right on the dock and watched the boats pass as we ate. Great atmosphere! Our service was phenomenal and the food was absolutely amazing. We went with a dozen of the large blue crabs, fried shrimp, fried clam strips, soft shell crabs and we washed it all down with some grapefruit crushed. The blue crabs, although very expensive (125 bucks for a dozen), were some of the best crabs I’ve ever had. The shrimp and clamp strips were very flavorful and I tried soft shell crabs for the first time. It was different but I enjoyed it. If you’re in the St Michael’s area you definitely have to give this place a try. Sit out on the dock and enjoy the scenery!

Restaurant is right on the water with great views. We had no wait for a nice table. The oysters were very large. It was my first time eating soft shell crabs and they were tasty. The potato salad was very good. I will give a big thumbs up for the green beans.

Outside dining was packed. The wait was maybe 45 minutes. So we opted for inside dining. Still not disappointed, because the view was spectacular. Food was good and service was great.

Lovely local crab shack to eat on the water. Food is good quality and you’ll have a good time. Make sure to make a reservation and don’t expect the best service on the weekends when they’re slammed.

Has the charm of a crab house restaurant that overlooks the docks and water. Very busy. Service staff is polite, knowledgeable and attentive. Table is bussed regularly as you finish your courses. I really like the small sterno butter warmers that prevents congealed, cold butter. Over all The Crab Claw gets the crabs to the table in reasonable time. Your food doesn’t sit under a heat strip drying up. Well organized. Fresh crabs. Crabs were large, heavy, piping hot, good flavor and about market price: $126 a dozen for large. I wouldn’t recommend mediums unless you like spiders. (The larges are about equivalent to the old medium size of about 20 years ago). I also ordered the four count 2lb snow crab clusters for $60ish. These are not the specialty here. Very disappointed. Body meat was slightly malodorous, very dry, salty and did not hold it’s texture. To me it was clearly a frozen product. The leg meat on average was okay. It pulled from the shell somewhat easy. A few legs were stringy, dry and had slight odor. I strongly advise against the clusters. No my money was not refunded but the steamer will be made aware. I am sure, had I made a “stink” about the clusters the manager would have done more. Overall, stay with the crabs, their specialty.

Perfect crab picking and seafood spot. We arrived at 12:30pm on a Saturday and got a table on the water right away. Had great clams on the half shell and blue crabs.

Awesome *jumbo* crabs, loaded and very tasty! Our waitress Trinity could not possibly have been more cheerful and attentive. Staff was very accommodating getting folks under cover when it started to rain a bit, luckily we were already under cover. Still a great view. Overall one of our best dining experiences in a long time – thank you!!
