I was quite impressed by this place. They offer 2.75 pints of Yuengling and 4.95 martinis. The seafood platters are huge and reasonably priced. My fiancee and I went with the Seafood Combo Platter. What arrived at our table was a HUGE bowl of muscles in an amazing white sauce, peel and eat shrimp, a large crab cake that was pretty much 100% crab, and a monster crab leg cluster. We also got a side of fries and coleslaw. Both were good. Especially the coleslaw! Our entire meal, three drinks and two sides added up to about 47 with included 20% tip. I dont think thats a bad price at all, considering how stuffed we both were. The one thing I have to mention is the staff. Theyre short, uninterested and focused on getting you in and out as fast as possible. No small talk or friendly greetings here! Personally, if the foods good, I dont care. Just a word of warning for others.

We tried this place last night for the first time. So delighted to have a place to get crab legs close to home. It is smaller than I thought, but its always packed. My bf and I both ordered the crab clusters...each came with corn on the cob and potatoes. For $19 I was expecting a small amount, was pleasantly surprised to see two full helpings on my plate!! Cheap tap beer to boot! The manager, didnt catch his name, older guy with salt and pepper hair personally made sure every table and patron was happy and had everything they needed. A nice change! 3 rounds of beer each and dinner, total came to $66. We were expecting at least $80. Only thing to forewarn about, the seafood automatically comes with a hefty amount of seasoning. Now I know for next time. We will be returning often! Old school R&B on the jukebox Def helps! Would recommend.

Small, cozy, fun place - they always have some kind of drink specials. The seafood is great (which is how a seafood restaurant should work!), but the other food, like chicken tenders or recently, meatball sliders, are delicious too. And they have something called the Tower of Seafood - which really isnt a tower - but is so much food that 2 Hungry people will still have plenty of food to take away. Great alternative to the pizza and cheesesteak places that surround it. And the neon mermaid in the champagne glass out front always makes me smile!

I was skeptical at first...hmmm. Small packed but not dimly lit which is great because I like to see my food. So ordered crab cake, shrimp and salmon. Oh the potatoes and broccoli that came with it. Thanks yall, wasnt expecting it. Better service than this other seafood restaurant thats supposed to be well anyway. Waitress was nice and extra helpful glad I went on a Thursday night after 8. People need to put the day of the week and time in their reviews. Juke box was a bonus and bathroom was Nice and Clean!

Talking about "rudeness"... well, I must say these people are just unfriendly. They dont smile and thats it. However my order was on time and it was tasty too. I meant, if you are this kind of person who enjoy making friendship with the waitresses, then this is not your place. But if you dont care about it, then go ahead! Hint: if you decide to order a burger and your stomach is not that big, then go with somebody else and share it! :)

Waitress was very rude. Every time we asked questions she would answer in a one word answer as she walked away. We waited about 10 minutes to get water after we ordered it and then had to reorder the water when someone new came and once again we waited another 10 minutes. Take was rude to my wife but friendly to me. The food was good but the service was just disrespectful.

My husband and I came here for Fathers day dinner.. Nothing special about this place...you do get nice size portions, but the crab cake is not good "not fresh" and the clam chowder taste like it came from the can and they just added seasoning. Will not be returning I would rather have quality over quantity.

Never disappointed with the food. I get the seafood tower for two. My boyfriend & I share it & still bring food home. Soo small in there though, other than that no complaints

The food and service are amazing! Some of the best broiled shrimp Ive ever had! They have a "sample dish" they claim to feed two. Three of us didnt finish it! Huge portions.
