So, I am relocating to Maryland and said let me start early finding the best spots for blue crabs. Blue Crabs Unlimited did not disappoint! I ordered half a dozen jumbo male, unseasoned (on the side) and they were so on point. The staff was friendly and very sweet. My order was a little wrong. They came out seasoned and unfortunately my wife doesn't do spice and salt. I was given a sincere and kind apology and ask if I would be willing to to wait another 25 minutes while the corrected the mistake. I was given a nice cold bottle water and some pleasant conversation. I have a fractured food and there was laughter about breaking my foot in somebody's... you know! . But back to the crabs. I received my unseasoned crabs and for my trouble they gave me the seasoned ones as well. This was such a pleasant surprise. Acknowledging the mistake and the water was fine with me. Mistakes happen and I don't always expect business to go beyond a "I'm sorry". At the price of jumbo crabs, I'm sorry was all I expected. I drove four hours to get home and get to my crabs. Let's just say after my wife and I were done, the table looked like a battlefield of carcasses. Lol. You guys do an amazing job and will definitely be my go to spot when I move. See you soon. read more

I was delayed in Baltimore because of an unexpected storm, and since Baltimore is known for its blue crabs, I had to find a great spot. This restaurant definitely hit the spot! The customer service was great, and everyone was very patient with me. The crabs were amazing and delicious. Do yourself a favor and call ahead because they make everything to order. Definitely worth the wait! read more

My go-to for crab legs and crab cakes. Great prices and wonderful people. They are always pleasant and helpful.

Crabs are meaty and well seasoned, Best corn on the cob ever, a bit pricey but totally worth it. Staff is pretty friendly too. read more

I needed some crabs and by 1p on a Saturday, folks were turning me away (i was on the prowl for some jumbos). BCU came through. They were hot and fresh and hit the spot! Also grabbed a crab cake to cook at home. It was delicious! I'll be back! read more

I tried them out today becaue of a Tik Tok I saw and I am glad that I did. Crabs were meaty, tasty and they were for a great price. I HIGHLY recommend them. read more

I am from Texas, living in California now so I miss good seafood for an even better price like back home! Visiting the DMV, I made seafood a priority. I like the food truck ambiance and that you can eat outside! I ordered the snow crab legs and boiled shrimp. I'll start with the good, the prices per pound of snow crab legs are $24.99. That's cheaper than back home in TX. Next, let's discuss the flavor. I LOVE THAT THEY USE SEASONING AND NOT SAUCE! That's what I'm used to, what I grew up eating! Last, the size of the shrimp and snow crab legs were HUGE. -- All in all, the snow crabs were perfect! Seasoned all through. The shrimp were too salty for my liking, but still juicy and delicious. The not so good, when I arrived I was reading the menu for a while. The lady at the window seemed to be annoyed by waiting for me to decided. I noticed they had the little hammers via the reviews, so when she asked me about wanting one I was like yea. I asked her if we could take them (bc I wasn't going to use it but take as a souvenir). Well, she was snippy about it and said "yea if you pay for it." So I let her know I wasn't from there and it was my 1st time at her establishment. -- it was a little off putting to be honest. I would love to go back, but I am not sure based off the experience with staff. Just didn't feel welcoming. read more

Blue Crabs Unlimited never disappoints. The prices are fair and the crabs are delicious. My go to spot.

We tried Blue Crabs out for the first time on Saturday. They did not disappoint! Be sure to call ahead before you go. The prices were very reasonable. When we went we got the special, buy 1 dozen medium males and get 6 for free. You can't beat that!! We will definitely be back!! read more

I really didn't want to post because I want to keep this place all to myself, but that would be greedy. Awesome customer service, and fantastic quality crabs. size was exactly as promised (we got extra large) and we promptly got a phone call at exactly the time we had ordered them for letting us know they were ready. Corn was incredible as well as was the shrimp. They have great deals if you're buying a lot. Five stars! read more

A+++ The crabs was season very wel, customer service was great. We come here on a regular basis, and definitely recommend this place. They have specials too, follow them on Facebook, and Instagram. read more

Ordered a dozen and a half x large crabs for 5 pm. I live literally 3 minutes drive from here. Got there at 4:50, told them my name and that I was here. She said the crabs aren't ready. A lady received her order and she complained that they weren't x large. At first they tried to convince her they were x large but she persisted. Finally they said they got her order mixed up and would steam a new order. At 5:10 i checked in again, still not ready. 5:18 they told me it was ready. I drove home, again, literally 3 minutes and opened the bag the first 2 crabs were lukewarm. Anyone who's ever eaten crabs knows if you're waiting 20 minutes for crabs, they should be piping hot. I took them back and told them I suspected they gave me the other persons order and got my money back. Don't trust this place. read more

Service was terrible. I ordered crabs and they mixed up the order because they didn't have the right information by the time I got my order the crabs were cold and the front greeter had no control over the orders. She just took orders over and over and again, taking your money and providing bad customer service. I do not recommend this spot for crabs. read more

We have been ordering crabs from here going on two years. As of the past week very dissatisfied with our order. $150 for dozen jumbo crabs and what was in the bag where large and extra large and maybe (maybe) 3 jumbos. $150. We got played!! Our previous orders where just fine - but - not this one. Very Disappointed!! Wasn't worth $150. read more

I like the spot. I always get the crabs live and cook them myself with beer and JO #2

We have been wanting to try out the crabs at this place all summer! We finally did, the weekend after Labor Day. We called ahead and placed our order for a dozen XL crabs. We arrived earlier than our pick up time, but the crabs were ready right at the time we had asked for! The crabs we received were hot and heavy! The seasoning was perfect. We were also very pleased with the size. I feel like this place properly sorts their crabs and we got what we paid for. read more

Blue Crabs Unlimited - Dozen XL crabs. - Seafood Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

Had a great experience with BCU! Ordered a bushel of female crabs ($260 - tax included - June 2023) The crab was super sweet and it was more than enough for 7 people! I also got 4 mallets that they didn't charge me for - not sure if that was a mistake or that they let me have them cause I bought a bushel, but I was super grateful nonetheless! read more

Absolutely loooved this place. I wasn't expecting it to be a food truck but it was and the service was amazing. I walked up ordered my food they said it would be 20-30min and it was EXACTLY that. I ordered large females and they were reasonably priced, heavy and meaty. The only thing I would say is that either bring cash or be prepared to pay 3% more for using your card. Definitely coming back read more

Was browsing Yelp for its suggestions in getting steamed crabs near in Elkridge and found this place. Albeit only 8 reviews thus far, all said such positive things that I wanted to try it. My husband put in a very long day serving other fathers and families this Father's Day weekend so wanted to give him a treat. Maryland blue crabs are his favorite! Unfortunately, by the time I got to the food truck, they were out of all females and extra and jumbo size males. So I went for a couple of large males & their special 3 lbs of steamed shrimp. (Because they said they were out of the extra large - this is important!) There was a line so had to wait awhile, but the service was friendly and there was a nice cool breeze. I was so excited to have my first crabs for this season! While waiting, these 2 guys come along and order a dozen of extra large makes & they get them! When they called my name to get my order, I had to express my dismay... So sad that they would discriminate... for whatever the reason... read more

I don't usually get crabs this early in the season, but needed something to break the monotony of the last few weeks (shelter at home). First time trying this spot and was pretty please. Placed the order ahead of time and they were ready when I got there. Had one issue though, I was 6 crabs short on my order, when I called back they were very accommodating. Mistakes happen and I was happy with how they handle it. They aren't for from wear I live so I was able to go pick up the rest. They were fresh out the pot. The crabs were very good and so was the corn. They also have pit beef and pulled pork. Definitely a spot worth checking out. read more

Love - love - LOVE this place! Our go-to-crab place anytime of the year! We have tried others and they do not compare to the freshness and flavor of these crabs. Great deals - especially when they have buy a dozen get a dozen free. My fiancé and I were getting crabs from them every week during the summer - they are that good. Their seasoning is also delicious and they aren't stingy with it! Honestly haven't had a bad crab from them. Their corn is also very good. The staff is also super friendly! Never had a bad interaction and always welcome us with a smile and a see you next time :) Follow their Facebook for their daily specials/offerings and make sure you call ahead to place your order quickly because sometimes they sell out super fast! 10/10 would recommend. read more

Blue Crabs Unlimited - Male Jumbo Crabs - Seafood Near Me - Elkridge, Maryland

I arrived at this place before they opened at 11am because I was afraid of them running out seeing that it was Father's Day weekend. There was about 4-5 customers in front of me already waiting in line. Not sure why but it took FOREVER for people to order and move along. I wanted to get some male steamed crabs and they said they only had small, medium and XL (they just opened...why?!?!). So I got dozen XL steamed crabs and 2lbs of crab legs. Cost me about $120. And was told it'll take about 20-25 minutes but took 45+ minutes. I asked if I can get some rolled paper to cover my table, they said it's $1.50/roll. It was pouring rain and I didn't want to take my wallet out so I said forget it. I got home and poured out the seafood I got and was little disappointed with how small the XL crabs looked. My whole family was saying I got ripped off so I decided to measure it and yes they were all pretty small for XL. As for taste, it was OK. Some crabs were undercooked and they overdid it with old bay seasoning. I'll probably check out other steamed crab places first before I decide to go back to this place. read more

Best crabs in the area hands down, nice size, always fresh. Been going for the last few years in the area they never disappoint. They also will throw in a couple extra crabs once in a while.

The best crabs I've had since I've lived in Maryland (12 years). Great service, prices are fair and crabs are well-seasoned and fresh!

Best Crabs I've had in a while! Meaty, heavily flavored and seasoned, The staff is always polite and friendly. They often have great promotionsjj read more

I love how this place doesn't drown the crabs in seasoning, but instead, they make sure there's a good balance between the crabs themselves and the seasoning. The place was super accommodating even when I had to revise my order a couple times; my order was ready for pick up when they said it would be. The crabs tasted super fresh and for the price, I'd definitely say it's worth it! read more

Great crabs! Very positive atmosphere and friendly people. Crabs are always heavy and delicious

Crabs are steamed properly and usually taste good. However, the crabs are oftentimes small and light for what you are buying. Look at google reviews for number of people that also feel same. read more
