The fried shrimp were amazing with the fries and small slaw. The half of bushel of medium female crabs were cooked well and the seasoning was just right. The females were very sweet.

The owners were very nice and informative. They let me try one of their best sellers and it was delicious. I ordered 1/2 dozen sm females and they were also delicious. They have been at this location I believe they said 5-6 years yet alot of people are unaware they are there. I will definitely be returning and telling all of my friends and I ask that you all do the same!!

I asked for some crabs without seasoning and they were the best crabs I’ve got in the dmv so far they were full of meat juicy and still tasteful. I also got the fried shrimp and I would recommend them it’s a great size and taste great I will be coming back here but I can already imagine how the crabs taste with seasoning!!!

Went in on a day my usual seafood spot was closed and was not disappointed first off the service is great the owner asked me if I ever been there and offered me a fried shrimp to try (pic below) and it was delicious I hadddd to get something I got the seafood platter with lake trout, fried shrimp, steamed shrimp, scallops (that I switched out for more shrimp cause I don’t eat them) fries and coleslaw, everything was good but when I got home I realized I didn’t get the coleslaw so I can’t say how that was. I also got a steamed snow crab leg to try and it was good but 10 for one was on the high end. They also offer fresh fish in the case and everything looked clean. I will be back soon for sure . Only thing I would say is the snow crab legs are kind of pricey.
