We drove to southern Maryland to pick crabs. Captain John's has in the past been dependably good…read more This time the food did not disappoint but the service was very rough. We ordered a dozen crabs, a pound of jumbo shrimp, a bowl of cream of crab soup, an order of hush puppies and an order of fried pickles. The soup had plenty of lumps of crab meat and a nice flavor, and the portion was ample. The crabs were described as jumbo but were closer to large. At $115 for the crabs, a dozen was enough. (Side note: when the market price is that high you really should disclose it on a specials sheet or chalkboard or something. The first mention of it was on the final bill.) The crabs were steamed well and did not taste muddy at all. The shrimp likewise was perfectly cooked. The pickles and puppies were delicious. Total bill before tip came to $200. On the high side versus expectations but not alarming. Service was worse than spotty. At times it was clear that the server had tables in multiple areas of the restaurant and needed roller skates to keep up. And there were times that she was sitting talking to other employees or with her regulars. Several things we had to ask for multiple times (melted butter for crab, drink refills, a few crackers) some of which we finally gave up on ever getting and went to the bar to request. Things like silverware had to be requested. Getting the bill took longer than necessary. All in all, service was 2 to 3 stars. Setting: Worn chairs and tables. Many televisions, all set to Maryland Lottery channels for fake horse races and keno that ran nonstop. Large lottery machine near the bar that did a steady business. This was distracting and not conducive to pleasant dining. Overall the food made the trip worth it. Will go back but not for the atmosphere or the service.

John behind the bar is you're go to guy! He asked our names and then remembered them throughout the whole night (2hrs on a sat night)! Ordered the Mussels in white sauce-which was light & huge-yum. 12 raw oysters-4 different kinds, loved all 8 options! Had the special-trust the chef or John. We had the crab cakes which were delicious-as expected! The main room or bar is ideal but the covered patio is worth the wait! Oh yeah, and the free fries they brought us-delicious!

This is probably our favorite restaurant here in cville, and even after many years, it is still consistently amazing! We ordered a dozen raw oysters of different brine levels, and they tasted so fresh. I especially loved the oysters from Breakwaters Newport, RI. My favorite main to order here is always the Moules Frites. Tried the Classic Mariniere, and it was SO DELICIOUS OMG. The sauce was decadent, that I had to make sure to soak up every mussel and the crostinis. And idk how they do it, but their frites are perfectly seasoned and crispy! The portions for this is pretty large, and shared some with my husband too, and is worth every penny. My husband tried the Rockfish with Chimichurri, with was also very good and fresh! Loved the crispy skin with the chimicurri sauce, gave a nice crunch! But I felt the portion size was a bit on the smaller end For dessert, LOVED the Apple Crumble, not too sweet, loved the contrast of the vanilla ice cream with the warmed apples, and loved the layer of oats on top, gives really good contrast in texture

I took away 2 stars because of: (a) PRICES - not very affordable. and (b) ENVIRONMENT - they were playing "urban music" with a lot of bass SO FREAKING LOUD, it was downright uncomfortable. The music just did not mesh with the "Cajun" theme whatsoever. I don't really foresee me coming back unless they lower their prices AND tone down the music.

My wife gave it a 5 out of 10! I would give it a three! They served the boil in a bag which suggested it precooked! It left a stale salty taste! Our service was good! Our table seating was poor! Tea was the only thing over priced! If you like cheap quality seafood at a good price this is your place! We are certainly seafood snobs and Charleston South Carolina is our go to place for a good boil! This had more of an Asia tone than a Cajun taste! It took a week to get that horrible smell out of my mind !

Stopped in for lunch at Crabby Maggie's while visiting Strasburg. I'd seen the place pop up on…read moresocial media a few times, and since it's the only dedicated seafood spot in the area, it felt like a must-try. Parking is a bit tight, and the layout of the lot is... let's just say, a little confusing. I thought there might be an exit on the opposite side, but that might've just been me overthinking it. Inside, the place has a cozy, casual vibe, and there's also a nice outdoor patio if the weather's good. What stood out right away was the owner--the same person you see on their social media sharing specials--was actively working the floor. He was taking orders, cleaning up, and checking in on tables. Always great to see that level of involvement and energy. We went with the fried baskets, and the portion sizes were huge--definitely felt like a good value for the price. (Check out the pictures!) Everything we had was hot, crispy, and satisfying. We saw a few other dishes--like the tacos and steak--go by, and they looked just as tempting. I've already made a mental note to try the scallops or one of those tacos next time I'm back.
