    Grilled Lamb Chops
    Jason P.

    A wonderful evening at Crab Cab for dinner. We had a large party and the staff went above and beyond to take care of us. All the apps we ordered, entrees, and desserts had great flavors. The restaurant itself is cozy and they have a great outdoor seating area. Highly recommend visiting this location. Their brussel sprouts and mac and cheese were my favorite sides.

    Island Pasta

    We decided to check out this location prior to the R&B tour. The location was prime because it is close to the stadium. Also. I wanted to check out the brick and mortar after eating from the food truck for years. The brick and mortar did not disappoint. The food was truly delicious. I ordered the fried catfish with the sautéed spinach and mashed potatoes. The food was seasoned to perfection and the cocktails were definitely potent also the service was top tier. Very attentive staff and great customer service. The ambiance is a really dim vibe, laid back and chill. In addition to the catfish, we tried other delights such as gumbo, seafood spring rolls, island, pasta, and the charbroiled oysters. You should definitely check this place out, but because it is not very big you should make a reservation to ensure seating. You won't be disappointed.

    It's a really quaint and cozy spot in the area. The server was fairly good but it did take awhile for food to be ready. The best thing was the share spinach dip. My pasta dish needed more seasoning.

    Great suburban meet up and hang out spot! I was surprised to stumble on this place and meet up with some friends for a happy hour. I came here to meet up with some friends for a quick happy hour and a few appetizers. The drinks were strong, and the food was really fresh, good! I tried the crab balls and the blackened scallops. I was quite impressed on how fresh everything was and how the food was prepared, including the presentation. The food was on point, great, and the drinks are top-notch..... a winner! Well seasoned seafood eats, and the like...like chicken tenders and main big dishes....like grilled salmon plates, broiled fished and salads. I tried the crab balls and blackened scallops. Both dishes were super fresh and really good...most of all seasoned. The crab balls alone was loaded with lump crab meat. I only wish that they included 3 crab balls instead of two considering the price. Other than this, I highly recommend a stop or visit here. Looking forward to trying more dishes and a return visit.

    Seafood Trio Salad
    LaTia S.

    I visited on a Sunday afternoon post brunch rush because this place is always super busy for brunch! I knew exactly what I wanted the seafood trio salad which was so delicious I'm telling you this salad has salmon, fried shrimp, a mini crab cake with craisins and tomatoes, it was exactly what I needed in my life. The food is always seasoned well and service is top tier. Ashley is my favorite bartender, her drinks are always on point. Come visit if you're thinking about, you won't be disappointed.

    Honey-Glazed Brussels Sprouts

    I would give 3.5 stars if I could. My overall experience at Crab Cab was positive. I came for happy hour and the prices were great. It is a cute restaurant with a cozy, but chic interior. I also loved their playlist! The music was a vibe. My server was also very friendly. As for the food, I enjoyed the calamari because it was tender. The brussel sprouts were also tasty. The crab cake sliders were okay and the chips that came with the crab and shrimp dip tasted a little stale and needed salt. The drinks were strong. I have heard the Alexandria location is better and I definitely want to try that location.

    My shrimp basket after eat some
    Tamara S.

    This was my first time and I was very impressed. The decor was wonderful. I ordered the crab dip and seafood eggrolls. The crab cab sauce was very good with eggrolls. I did expect them to be a tad bit bigger. The crab dip was excellent. Very tasty and not a lot of mayo. The flavor was robust. I ordered the shrimp basket and my sister ordered the shrimp po boy. Both were very good. I will definitely be back. I was also impressed with the manager cleaning and checking on customers. Our server was Erin, she was very nice, however one suggestion, do NOT grab customers glasses over the top. Your hands should be around the bottom of the glass.

    I've loved this spot when they were just a food truck. Salmon fries will always be my go-to! Now this location, like the VA one, is very tight space wise. It's hard to not feel like you aren't going to bump into someone's table when trying to get back. But the food was delicious. I was sad the oysters came out after our entrees but no complaints in the cook at all. Also service was a little behind because the bartender had customers at the bar and still had tables, like mine.

    Crab & Shrimp Spinach Dip
    Dominique M.

    My and a couple of friends were looking for a spot in the area that had crab dip so we tried here. The place is very cute but is super small. The staff was very friendly. I had the lamb chops Oscar style. They were pretty good. My friend had the lobster pasta, it was like an Asian Lo mein style pasta , but it was really delicious. The spring rolls were pretty good as well. The star of the show was the crab dip. It was so good that we got a total of three orders of it. I also had the triple b cocktail, if u like lavender I will love it. For dessert I got the strawberry crunch cheesecake and that was really good as well. Overall this is a great choice.

    Seafood spring rolls to go

    I ordered online two Thai Lobster Noodle meals and seafood spring rolls. The food was not good. It taste like it was from the freezer. These meals do not look like they are worth $38. My total bill was $99 including a $10 and I am so disappointed. The service was fine with pick up.

    Blue Berry Smash
    Jessica U.

    Yikes . As almost ALL the reviews state, the service was TERRIBLE. My husband and I got there around 4pm on a Wednesday with very minimal people there and left around 6:30pm. We only had three appetizers and 2 drinks. There was about four people behind the bar all of which kind of ignore the fact that you're sitting there. We ordered and the wrong food came out after an hour. By the time the right food came out I tried eating so fast I didn't take a picture. A girl was starving! Important part - Food Crab and shrimp spinach dip: 7/10 Seafood oysters: 4/10 Crab cake stacker sandwich: 6/10 per husband Drink: South Sunset: 8/10 Blue berry smash: 7/10 Ambiance: Actually a nice place. Small but cute. Unfortunately I will never be back because of service.

    The place is small but beautifully decorated. It's an outdoor/indoor space and seems like a good place to go if you want to catch a little vibe in your local Upper Marlboro area. This ain't DC, so let's all tailor our expectation of vibe . This place does have potential to be a spot where the older crowd or young professionals gather just to chill or to just hang with your significant other. You are going to want to make sure they got your order correct. They messed up on my wife and I order and had to come back to use to take it again. Food: Crab & Shrimp Spinach Dip - 6/10.. it was ok but missing something to make it pop. Maybe pretzel bread would be better than the tortilla chips and the flavor of the dip was mediocre. Crab Cake Sandwich Stacker - 6/10.. this was another mediocre meal. There was nothing about it that really made it memorable. It tasted like any other crab cake that you could get from anywhere. It could have used some more old bay and they could have put more sauce on it. Drinks: Sunset Beach: 8/10.. this drink is great for those who love something sweet and not overpowered by alcohol. Blueberry Smasher: 10/10.. just the right amount of alcohol and flavor. For those who want to try something but not into the sugary drinks. Honestly, the drinks are what is making me rate this place a 3 over a 2. Overall, the experience was meh. Service was slow, we almost got double charged for a meal, and got the wrong order first. On top of getting the wrong order first, the food was so delayed that the woman who came after us, looked over and said, "dang, you all were before me and haven't ate yet." It's just starting out, so maybe they just need time to find their footing.

    Fried Catfish

    Made a last minute reservation for Mother's Day weekend and was surprised they had something available. My mom, daughter, and I visited for brunch/lunch and arrived around 1pm. The bar was full but they had plenty of open tables. We were seated immediately upon arrival. The restaurant is small but cozy with a nice kind of boho theme to the decor I really liked it. I wish I could remember our server's name but she was amazing. There were so many good options on the menu it was making it very hard for us to choose. But she offered some really great suggestions and we loved everything we tried. We started with the seafood spring roll and the crab and shrimp spinach dip. Both were delicious but that spinach dip had me ready to order a second one. My daughter was scrapping the bowl. They have a wide variety of flavored lemonades I tried the passionfruit and my mom got the white peach they were tasty and not overly sweet. Now on to the entrees I had the Brunch Lamb chops which came with breakfast potatoes and eggs. The lamb was seasoned to perfection and cooked perfectly. I usually hate breakfast potatoes are restaurants but these were chef's kiss. Seasoned well and cooked fork tender. I added a side of collard greens just to try and they too were also very good. My mom had the catfish dinner and added crabcake too it. She said she loved the catfish but would probably skip the crabcake next time. My daughter had the cinnamon toast crunch French toast with fresh fruit and let me tell you that is probably the BEST French toast I've ever had. It was so good. Overall, loved the ambiance of the restaurant. Food was delicious and service just as great. Look forward to coming back to enjoy some nice weather and food on their patio.

Seeing as the restaurant wasn't crowded at all you would think that I would have gotten pipping hot food...nope...lukewarm at best For as long as it took me to get things last night you would have thought the restaurant was packed to capacity, nope The restaurant was clean and it is it as big as the Bowie location but we'll take it.

The experience started poorly upon entry: despite the lack of a crowd, the hostess was in a back room wearing a coat, which immediately suggested the restaurant was uncomfortably cold. We were seated without being informed about the Happy Hour specials.Our server, however, was friendly and attentive and provided good service, including bringing out complimentary popcorn. The major issues were with the food quality: * Chicken Wings: The wings looked and tasted old. When we requested fresh chicken, we were told it would take 30 minutes, which was strange since our original order arrived much faster than that. * Fish and Onion Rings: The batter on the fish was excessively thick and seemed to be the exact same heavy batter used for the onion rings. The Happy Hour drink prices were good, and the drinks themselves were fine, but overall, the quality of the food needs significant improvement. I hope the restaurant will invest in better marketing and, more importantly, elevate the quality food of its and preparation.

I remember this place used to be to be a hibachi carry out of some sort not too long ago. However I've been seeing their fried rice online and it grabbed my attention because of the veggies and the dark color it had. It reminded me of how the fried rice from the Chinese carry out used to be in the 90's early 2000's. For some reason nowadays when you order fried rice , there tends to be nothing inside of it besides onions and bean sprouts. What happened to the peas and carrots!!!!! I entered the store on a Friday night--which had only 1 customer who was waiting on her order. I walked to the register and was greeted with a smile from a polite young lady. I ordered the fried shrimp with shrimp fried rice, which is actually one of their combos. I believe it was $11.99/$12.99 something like that, but you get 6 shrimp or you can get 12. They have a nice amount of t of seating available if you want to dine in, I believe they have a restroom for customers available as well. The store appeared clean as well as the parking lot. The food came out quickly, cashier showed it to me before bagging ,it which was cool. Everything looked great. The shrimp were jumbo, I highly doubt you need 12 pieces unless you have a large appetite. The shrimp were lightly coated, not panko breaded. Cooked to perfection and perfectly golden brown. The rice was tasty-I did add one packet of soy sauce and that was all I needed. The food stayed hot for a very long time, and my shrimp didn't get soggy before I arrived at my destination. I will return and try something different the next time. Give this spot a try, I think they need a little bit of Yelp help....
