** le sigh ** Where do I begin... I was a faithful customer of Blue Point a little less than 10 years ago and bad customer service happened repeatedly and ran me into the arms of another crab place. Well 10 years later, I decided to try again. I heard mixed reviews but one of the positives were from a good friend. I went and ordered1/2 dozen of medium male crabs but was told that the small/ medium/ large crabs were mixed together for $2 each. Great! I was most delightfully surprised when I saw they have a full menu of seafood as well as poultry items. This must be great right? I called in order half dozen of crabs is well as a catfish sandwich. The food was ready on time as promised. That's a plus, the atmosphere was much better than I remembered it being. Someone did a great job with their vision for how this place should look and it looks great. They have all types of cold salads, fresh seafood, etc. I get home and eat my catfish sandwich and crabs. It was ok, plentiful. Ohhh the catfish sandwich, I swear they put 2 - 3 pieces on top each other, it was so large and good. Cooked very well and seasoned perfectly. It came with a bag of chips. Next I went to eat my crabs. They looked ok, the seasoning was good. The crabs tasted a little old and smelled kind of fishy. I would say the crabs were bad, edible I guess. There were a good size. For them to be mixed, I feel like I definitely received more of the larger crabs than small. Although it's been awhile since I last visited, the crabs were better back then. Customer service is much better now, so I will revisit because I want to try more of their food items. That's all I got for this review.

I ordered a half bushel medium blue crabs for $150. I'm a MD native but haven't had crabs in over a year as I live out of state now. They were great... good sized and meaty. The employee even walked my crabs out to my car for me.

I'll start by saying I am an out of towner and come around here a couple times a year to visit family. Every time we come, we HAVE to get some authentic Maryland steamed crabs! We came here to Blue Point last October and we're very pleased with everything! It's not April and even though crabs are not in season at this time, these crabs were super delicious! Definitely worth the price we paid! No complaints here!

Super large crab inside the bag of size small male crabs. Thanks!!

I was on reisterstown rd in Owings mills and decided to get some crabs. I called all of my usual crab spots and no one had crabs. This place only had small males for $35/doz.. I ordered 2 doz and 1lb of steamed shrimp. The customer service was awesome. I dealt with a Caucasian guy, stocky with a beard. The other guy was older and bald with glasses. They both were nice and helpful while I was undecided on what I wanted to order. The crabs were flavorful and big for smalls. They even threw in some bigger ones. The steamed shrimp was amazing! My mother got some seafood salad. It was delicious. My overall experience was great, I will be back. I will add this place to my list of favorites.

Ordered a bushel of large males (around $320) here for Mother's Day and they were great! They were meaty and the flavor was really good (not too much seasoning but not too little). Of course because of COVID their ordering process is different than usual, but I really appreciated how efficient they were. The service is always good when I come here, so I will continue to support them.

I really wanted my first crab picking event of the season to be good. I signed up for store promotions the day before and received a text for a Monday special ($3 mediums). I did my due diligence and called another crab house near by and this was indeed a great deal. I called and asked if I could place an order over the phone (for steamed crabs) and was told no. I think this is a fair practice bc if someone doesn't show then crabs have been steamed w/out a buyer. I live nearby so less than a 10 min drive and I was in the store requesting the special. I over hear the young lady ask the male worker if the mediums were still available. He responded yes and said something like "she's not coming." To me this means maybe someone inquired but hadn't arrived. I would estimate about 5-7 minutes after ordering my 2 dozen were ready. The bag was hot but this seemed super quick and I wondered if they were reheated. I had 4 of the 24 and my BF ate the rest. 3/4 were good and 1/4 was meh, all the claw meat was black. This was odd to me and again I questioned how fresh they actually were. I am a straight up "mustard" girl. The more the better. By the time I made it home (roughly 15 mins from pickup) my beloved mustard was firm, not runny. Again I questioned how fresh they were. All in all, inflation is real and I believe the deal fair. I can't say they are the best mediums I've had but this deal satisfied my crab craving.

Wish I could do no stars ... i called and ordered " cream of crab soup " and it was more of " cream of throw up " . The soup was literally thick & has no color to it and tasted disgusting!! . It tasted like it was three days old . I'm highly disappointed. I literally wanted to throw up once I opened it .

If you want to pay large crab prices and get small bad crabs then this is the location for you

They put them together to perfection, they were ready on time, and they were delicious! We had steak, chicken, and tuna salad little sandwiches on croissants. I'm definitely going to order from Wegmans again, especially those items. They were perfect! But back to the store itself. They will pretty much have everything you need. They have some of my favorite items like frozen jasmine rice in individual packets. You can get them in white or brown. They're both delicious. I also love the frozen vegetables. They have the best selection of frozen vegetables. Especially frozen spinach. Most grocery stores only give you the champ. Spinach, Wegmans will give you the whole leaf frozen spinach. I love that. And their quinoa cakes are divine. They're frozen vegetables and foods. Selection is top notch!

Today I was taking my dad around and he wanted to stop here for a late lunch or early dinner. He had a craving for some oysters. Unfortunately they did not have any oysters in stock. We still decided to stay and dine in though. The restaurant area isn't very large. After coming in we seated ourselves. Within a few minutes a waitress came over and took our drink orders. We also ordered cups of cream of crab soup as an appetizer. For our main courses I had the 6.5 oz crab cake platter and my father went with the 4 oz crab cake platter. You get two sides included. I ordered the onion rings and mixed vegetables while my dad went with onion rings and cole slaw. The crab cakes were good. Had a good flavor and not full of filler. The cream of crab soup was also delicious. Had me craving more. Plenty of lump crab meat in it. A bowl would probably fill me up as a meal. The onion rings were nice and crispy just like I like them. Mixed vegetables were nothing special. Just steamed veggies with not seasoning. Service was fast and friendly. Everyone was so very nice and made it a comfortable visit. I will definitely be back and so happy my father wanted to stop in this day.

The gentleman that made my drink, an Italian margarita, was so sweet and can make one hell of a drink! He also checked in after making it to make sure I liked it. The ambiance was very chill. It seems like during the day families can dine and into the evening more of a mature crowd. I'm sure this is a place that has potential and can get very busy. With the customer service I experienced I'm sure this business has some longevity. There are lots of TVs and a big screen projector to catch the games. They had the NFL Playoffs on while I was there. The menu is extensive. There is a variety of food selections from salads, burgers, crab cakes etc. And then the typical bar food like mozzarella sticks, fried shrimp, wings etc. Due to being really into some heavy catching up with my friend I didn't get to snap any photos but I'll return again soon!

Once scraped off and sauce added was perfect. Pasta delicious. Bread for table delicious. Wings needed some help. Not a lot of taste and weren't as well done in middle as they should have been. Dessert was delicious but the cheesecake that I had had whipped icing which I hate. Service is where it went a bit awry. We had 2 servers and after a while we guessed that one was being trained. The one directing things was excellent. All went well until the tale of the checks. I split with one person at the table and they paid their half in cash. I gave my card for other half. Should have been charged $60 some dollars. Trainee came back with a ticket for $175 -wasn't our tables check. She went back and came to table with a check for $137. Again not our tables check. At that point SHE said she would have manager come out. Then she came back several times and said the manager would be out shortly. At that point she presented correct check but buy them I wanted manager. She told us that the manager was too busy to come out despite her originally volunteering the manager. So I left with trepidation and a bad taste. All in all I would likely go back with cash for the food alone.

My fish and chips...imo a disaster...breading to cod ratio was about 3:1...meaning so much batter, hardly any fish, it was a turn off. Maybe the original location is the hidden gem, but the other options in this shopping center I'd consider before dining here. Reminds me of like an upscale red lobster...but none of the delicious cheddar biscuits! I don't know, maybe we hit it at an off night, but it wasn't good nor the prices charged in relation.
