    Tiny crabs sold as #2.

    Ordered #2 crabs given crabs less than 2in. Terrible. Do better. Never again. Not recommended.

    Fried platter menu

    I'm basing this review on the fish and chips. Since I only been here once I was in the mood for some fish and chips and had to coach a football game against Holy Spirt HS. Im so happy I found this seafood treasure. It's a place to grab and go both fresh and cooked seafood. They have a wonderful variety and you can get seafood cooked different ways; fried, broiled, steamed. What ever your little heart desires. With an extensive seafood menu I really only came there for the fish and chips. I'm happy they specify that they use cod in their fish and chips. I hate when Restaurants don't tell you what fish you are eating. Cod is my favorite for fish and chips. The food came out about 10-15 min after I ordered. I don't mind the wait because the food was made to order. And that's how it should be. Fish and Chips- DELICIOUS!!! A dry batter fried to a Golden brown and the fish was so warm and moist a nice white,flaky, moist cod and a crispy golden exterior. I don't ask but the tartar sauce tasted homemade. It was good and for $6.99 it's a gre Fries- amazing!! Lightly battered fries very crispy amd tasty. The staff was great. This place is awesome I wish it was closer to me haha. ***Update i have to sadly lower my rating for this place the last two times I been here have been disappointing. Like always I order my fish and chips. This time I also order some steamed crabs. These times I been here the fish wasn't as fresh the fish and chips didn't stick to the batter, the fish shrunk and there was a lot of moisture that came out of it when you cut the fish like it has been deep frozen. The steamed crabs was basically the same you tasted the freezer burn the meat of the crab was a little rubbery I would not recommend this place if this is the quality now.

    I buy seafood from here at least 2x a month in the summer. If I have company it can be 2-3x in a week actually. However, I can't see how anyone dislikes this place. I've never gotten food that's not fresh, affordable, or felt ripped off. I have been a customer for the 2 years I've lived down here and won't look anywhere else it's not needed. Bobs has it all and I can literally feed 20 people for the cost of 5 people eating out. Crabs are great, clams are great, flounder, lobster tails, crab cakes, platters all things I've ordered this summer! All A+

    Broiled Crab Cake

    This is only my 2nd time to Bob's and the 1st time I've ever ordered ala carte items and not a platter. Everything is steamed / prepared fresh to order and seasoned to your liking. The mussels were my favorite as the seasoning was sooooo on point and the mussels were nice and juicy. The shrimp were my second favorite as I got the peeled and deveined with the old bar and garlic butter. They were plump and the seasoning again was perfect! The crab cake was broiled to order and perhaps I've been spoiled by Baltimore crab cakes, but it wasn't as jumbo lumpy as I imagined lol! There was more filler than I would've liked but it was still good nonetheless. Now, their cocktail sauce is BOMB !!!! They even sell it in jars as well. Will definitely be back because they have party platters that are reasonable priced and I also wanna try the fried fish.

    It is well past time to update my prior review because the lines pouring out of Bob's Seafood Market verify that this "raw" fish monger located near the sea is doing something right. Walking in to order take out exposes one to a rapid pace calling of names and passing brown paper bags filled with cooked seafood to eagerly awaiting customers. The folks who pack Bob's come from every corner of the community from the high brow to those who choose a comfy path for life. If you are thinking about eating in .... Bob's is truly RAW! Simple window booths that are right in the middle of the action. Although the lines are for the vast array of fried or broiled seafood, Bob's has a really good selection of fish and shellfish on ice if you want to cook your own. The clams are local and those littlenecks really were tempting. Bob's works with locals who clam and crab so you know fresh is what you are getting. The prices are all very reasonable! My order of the day was split one fried platter and one broiled platter plus some CHOWDA. The fried platter included a nice piece of whiting with some perfectly butterflied shrimp. All were perfectly fried in a way that the breading added to the taste of the fish and shrimp. The fries on the platter were really good and the cole slaw tasty. The "healthy" broiled platter featured a nice array of steamed veggies, rice and once again a perfectly broiled and seasoned piece of salmon. The Manhattan style clam chowder was tasty but more about the fresh vegetables rather than the clams that failed to appear in every spoonful. So if you anywhere near Absecon & the shore and hungering for seafood to go cast your sites on Bob's. They might hook you into becoming another regular! Nothing fishy about this popular stop!

    Flounder and soups were tasty. Both meals were over cooked. Would like to try lobster tails next.
