I stop by here at least once a week to grab fresh seafood. The fish is clean and market-priced. You can also order seafood to be prepared in-house. Platters usually come with fries, coleslaw, and a dinner roll. The platters could use a bit more seasoning, but they're still a great option if you don't want to cook yourself--just add a little extra seasoning at home. You can also earn reward points toward a few dollars off your next purchase. Overall, it's a great local shop for fresh seafood. read more

Cameron's Seafood - Cameron's Seafood - Seafood Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

This would be my 2nd time ordering from Cameron's Seafood. I lived in Maryland for 5 years and I was skeptical of ordering frozen crabs. The 1st time I ordered live crabs, this time around I ordered 2 half bushels. I gifted one and kept one for myself. They were well seasoned and a nice size. After heating them up I couldn't tell that they were frozen. They tasted fresh. I recommend. Unless I'm in Maryland, this is the only place I will order my crabs. Thank you Cameron's!! read more

Ordered fried oysters and I wanted the fried 'hard'. Also, some fried okra to snack on! Don't let the pictures fool you. There is enough to share. Service was prompt and the wait was not long at all. My oysters were cooked to order and the okra was very good. The place isn't very quiet or loud and there are two tables with 8 total chairs to sit if you want to. Mind you, this is a takeout location and there is NO bathroom for guests here. read more

Only thing I've ever had are their hush puppies. The wife seems to like them. It seems to be a busy spot.

Service is great! Everyone is incredibly kind and welcoming. This is really a take out spot so there are just a few seats for customers while they wait for their food. Food: ehhh. Spiced shrimp is great. The lobster bisque and the chowder are also great. The whole steamed crabs are pitiful. Like, really not good. and I've tried them twice to make sure. They are so small, they aren't fresh - they taste like they've been refrigerated a few times before being steamed and/or re-steamed. I would not recommend. If you try them for yourself, I'd encourage you to manage your expectations. read more

The food is terrible for someone who's supposedly specializes seafood. The food was dried out and overcooked. And this was not the first time I have been there several times and each kind of food is worse read more

This was my first time ordering from this place. I ordered the Cod platter, and it wasn't bad, but cold. The fish was seasoned, but the coldness of the food took away from the enjoyment of the food. The fries were cold as well. I will give this place another chance when I return to the DC area. read more

Inconsistency in the food. Sometimes very good! Other times fish is very salty. Fish is cut into pieces to appear like a large portion. Sometimes over cooked, creating a hard crust. read more

I haven't had Cameron's in years but my regular crab spot was sold out of all male crabs. I was hesitant on ordering due to the negative reviews but they did not disappoint. The large male crabs exceeded my expectations. They were heavy, healthy and seasoned very well. Honestly the best crabs I have got on this side. I am hoping they are consistent next time I go. They also take phone orders so that was a plus. read more

Cameron's Seafood - two crabs on a table - Seafood Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

I ordered 1/2 dozen female crabs and a build your own platter. The crabs were not even legal size as all were under 5 inches. The spiced shrimp was good. The crabcake tasted like Jiffy cornbread. It was sweet and loaded with parsley and onion. Not a MD crabcake at all. There was very little actual meat but couldn't taste it as the cornbread mix over powered it. read more

That fried seafood platter is everything! Make sure you get it with some hush puppies. It comes with three large pieces of fish, three fried shrimp, three scallops, a handful of jumbo spiced steamed shrimp, crispy delicious fries, coleslaw, and a dinner roll. For the most part, everything I had was on point. The scallops were awesome: large, plump, juicy seasoned well and fried perfectly. Ditto for the fried shrimp. The fish was also well seasoned and perfectly fried, but it had a lot of bones in it, so be careful of that. The spiced shrimp were good too, but they were not deveined, so I had to take that extra step before enjoying them. They also provided a generous portion of fries which were hot and crispy and delicious. The side order of hush puppies was a generous amount. There had to be at least a dozen or a dozen and a half in there. So good! You know everything was good when I couldn't even stop to get a picture for y'all. Sorry. read more

Beware of short African guy he lies. Came in and ordered 3 bushels of #1males and he states that they are medium instead of large. All over the DMV #1males are large crabs read more

There are a lot of locations. Don't go to this one. They over charged me and when i called them on it they on it they tried to provoke me to argue. I had done the math and explained they owed me 10 days and they aggressively said okay and paused. I said so give me my money. Reluctantly they did. read more

This was the worst place. You order one thing and get another. What I will say is check your food before you leave. I ordered large crabs and they gave me medium. They call themselves steaming the crabs but they were cold. I politely told them to re-steam and give me what I ordered. I also ordered 1/2 pound of clam strips. It was not a 1/2 pound and I have pictures to prove it...they just giving folks what they want. I am not dumb, stupid or illiterate. If I could give them a -10 I would. People check your food! read more

I've live here 14 years and don't know why I never tried this place. I got the fried catfish dinner extra crispy and it was DELICIOUS. The rice was tasteless but who cares. The hush puppies were the best I ever had. Their oil is CLEAN. Fish was still crispy after 30 minutes. I will be back! read more

Decided on Cameron's for a Sunday late lunch. Great decision. Social distancing well practiced, called in my order so I stepped into the pickup line. The staff were friendly and quick. The food was really good. My fried Whiting fillets were fried and seasoned perfectly. It's my favorite menu item at Cameron's. The fried shrimp platter my daughter had, and the crab cakes platter were both delicious looking. My mom got the croaker platter and cream of crab soup. All was very tasty. I've grown to really like the team's demeanor and friendly customer service here. Hope they have a chance to see that they're appreciated. Thanks! read more

It's not bad, the fish (whatever comes on the platter) just tastes like the water they pulled it out of. I mean no salt, no pepper, NOTHING. It's like water a piece of meaty paper towel. Lol Everything else I had (fried scallops, shrimp, especially fries) were AMAZING. I'll definitely go back, but I can assure you I won't have fish unless I'm bringing it home fresh to make myself. read more

Today, I went to Cameron's in Capitol Heights off Central Avenue and purchased 1 dozen of med female crabs, 1 dozen of med male crabs a long with shrimp. I spent $78.00 on my total order. When I got home, my bag looked a thin so I decided to count my my crabs. I was shorten by two crabs one from each bags. I called and have spoke with the African American heavy set guy to inform him of their mistake and ask if can refund my money because I lived too far from their store he told me no. He told me I was going to have to come back all the way too the store for two crabs. I hung up because it would cost me more money to travel all the way back from where I lived. My medium crabs were all small and tiny. My advice, before leaving Cameron's in Capitol Heights, count your crabs before leaving. I never go back there ever because one, the manager had the audacity to say to me, you telling me she only put 11 crabs in both bags? I stated yes and did not receive my refund for my missing crabs. For me as a consumer, it's all about customer services and correcting their mistakes when it's made on their part. It doesn't matter if it was just two missing crabs, crabs comes in dozens and not 11's. And the fact we drove over an hour to buy crabs because our favorite crab spot Ernie's in Bladensburg was closed and Ruff and Ready didn't have none. I will never, ever go back to Cameron's in Capitol Heights ever again!!! So no stars from me. Well I could not.post unless I at least gave one start so I feel forced. Erica Mac read more

I had ordered some fried shrimp. I took a small bite of one of the shrimps and threw the whole box away. It's like they don't season the food. I don't know who's cooking back there. I thought it was gonna be like the seafood place called soul trans and the bay area and when I mean to tell you that I was so disappointed I do not recommend read more

Always order half a bushel of male large crabs for delivery here in The Berkshires at least 2x a year. Never disappointed! Always fresh and delicious! read more

I would not patronize this establishment due to rude cashiers and burnt food this place has gone down not the same .

All I have to say is get the jumbo lump crab cake! It will disappoint. I usually can't eat the entire sandwich in one meal.

Wait time was nice even though it was crowded. Ordered one dozen each medium male and female crabs. Got home (and I don't live close) the crabs were small and on top of that they shorted us on crabs Call back and they said they were "unable" to refund us the missing crabs ..And we could "come back and get our two crabs). RIDICULOUS! I don't go where the people don't respect/ honor their mistakes. Only there because my regular place (Ernies in Lanham and in Bladensburg) was closed. Won't be going to Cameron's ever again! read more

Cameron's Seafood - UNTRUSTWORTHY ESTABLISHMENT - Seafood Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

Whiting platter is typically hit or miss today was a big miss. Under Seasoned, over cooked, taste like pork rinds with meat inside & im mad I'm back at work. I'd take this back. This taste like someone ordered it and cancelled so they just put the fish back in the grease to heat it up... it's not good at all today. Wasted $16 read more

Well in this HORRIBLE rainy weather today, I decided I'm not gonna cook. I'll be passing by Cameron's so I'll pick up six large males if they have any. Well they had medium for $40 a doz. The young lady offered to show me some and okay, I looked. They were SMALL, but because of the weather and I wanted crabs, I got six. WHEN I GOT HOME AND BROKE INTO THE FIRST ONE... and the gills were blueish, I put it to the side. Opened another, totally mushy. So I broke all six open and I KNOW THESE CRABS WERE DEAD BEFORE THEY WERE COOKED and not just a few minutes. Makes me think after coming off of a crazy hot weekend, they decide to cook up what's left because my ears should have (well my nose) went up when they were already cooked. My error, never to EVER do that again (even tho that does not guarantee freshness). They sold me six, already really dead, blue dead man finger having, Gulden's mustard having, mushy meat crabs. I can't get that nasty taste out of my mouth and must say, they can NEVER get my business again. I pray I don't get I'll. I will be keeping the bag in the fridge for a day JUST IN CASE. Because it's going with me to the hospital if I do. And no, y'all can't say you don't do this because I've been eating crabs allllllll my 56 years...well give or take birth to three. These were dead. Either holler at your cooks or check yourselves for being greedy. Peace I can show pics if ya want.... read more

Looking at the reviews I was somewhat hesitant. However, I decided to give it a try anyway-I'm glad I did! I ordered the shrimp platter to go, and it was ready in less then 15 minutes.

Don't go here for crabs. They were empty and cold, but they said the crabs were cooked fresh. They didn't taste good, like they weren't fresh. The one gentlemen was very rude and pushy. They don't keep track of the orders so you're waiting longer when your food is ready. Waste crabs and customer service. read more

I love Cameron seafood they have the best boiled ultimate seafood platter ever and you can request no butter on your vegetables and extra vegetables instead of the rice My one concern is that the broil platter is three dollars more than the fry platter which kind of disturbs me because you have to pay extra just to eat healthy? The food was delicious but I doubt that I will ever come here again not that I am cheap or anything but it just disturbs me how places will try to take advantage of certain situations My order was 43 for 2 ultimate seafood platters and I'm sure I can get a better deal closer to my home read more
