Where do I start? Everything was tasty. It was a beautiful day and we sat outside at the bar to enjoy Happy Hour. We started with drinks, both delicious and well balanced. (S/O our bartender). The manager also saw me recording content and offered me some of their shrimp & grits and OMG...it was the best. I'm not a fan of shrimp & grits at all but I'd go there and order that as a meal, delicious. Then we ordered a bunch of food from the HH menu. Faves: The seafood oysters were delicious. They were cheesy and full of seafood pieces. We ordered the full order and not from the HH menu and I'm so glad we did! We also ordered the crabcake sliders & the crab spinach dip which were both good! Not so faves: The shrimp basket & catfish bites were fried nicely but weren't anything special. They tasted how you'd expect them too. I wasn't a fan of the fries at all (I consider myself a fry connoisseur) but they tasted air fried. All in all, I can't wait to go back for maybe brunch next time or HH again. read more

Loved the food! Customer service was wonderful they check up on you. A little bit pricey don't get me wrong but it's worth it in my opinion. Food was delicious they deliver a good portion for you to be able to get full so in my experience Will I come back ? Yes read more

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible. Seafood rolls made with old shrimp. The waiter/bar guy laughed it off. 1st time going there and I was embarrassed because I recommended it. I liked the Ambiance but the food was the real reason I went. Salty, salty, salty. Never again. I'm awake because I'm not well. Don't waste your money. Oh, before I forget, the waitress made it apoint to tell us that the tip that's 18% gets slip with everyone else soooo???? I was like there is no way I will leave anything else. It's already decided even if you had a Horrible time. I wish the bleep I would. Get a lesson on cooking/serving 1st. I'm not feeling well and will never recommend them again. read more

I've tried the Alexandria location but somehow I forgot there was a Maryland location and when I was reminded I couldn't wait to check it out. Visited on a Friday and the place was jumping. I was hoping to take advantage of happy hour, but by the time I arrived, the bar was packed. Definitely need a reservation because of the size. I was seated as soon as I arrived. There was an upbeat atmosphere... music playing, and the servers were very friendly. While I waited for a friend, I ordered the triple B cocktail and water. To my surprise, I had the option of Saratoga bottled still water which is one of my faves. Both were quite refreshing. Once my friend arrived, we ordered the crab and shrimp spinach dip and the charbroiled oysters. The oysters were tasty, and the dip was out of this world. It was so good we thought about getting another order but then felt we were being little piggish. Although we were stuffed, we had to try something else so we thought we could share the seafood quesadilla with the salmon removed (because of my fish allergy) but it became a to-go order. One of the things I enjoy about dining experiences is when my leftovers reheat well the next day and this was the case for the seafood quesadilla. So yes, I will be returning and planning to take advantage of happy hour which means to either try a less busy afternoon or arrive at the very start of happy hour. I just love strategic planning. read more

I have been eyeing this place for quite a bit. I tried to go with my parents one night, and it was completely packed. And on our way out, a security guy showed up... it gets like that huh? Anyways, I returned the next day during the afternoon... it was right after brunch ended, and would you believe it was still full in there? That place is tight! I was on the way to a friend's house and I was early, so I decided to make a stop for food. I literally got the last seat at the bar, where I received a menu fairly quickly. I decided to try a crab quesadilla and the crab bisque to go, while I sipped on a margarita (in honor of the day, of course). They didn't have any special deals for the day -- they don't even have margaritas on the menu (that I saw lol), but they were able to make one. It was quite delicious! I received my food in a reasonable time, and then I headed to my friend's. I absolutely loved the quesadilla... hefty and delicious. I even dipped it in the crab bisque -- which was supposed to come with a butter roll that was nowhere to be found :(. If I didn't have the quesadilla I would've been unhappy, but it was fine... but come on haha. I plan to return soon -- but seriously it's TIGHT in there. Be wary if you have a large party. read more

Incredible food. Incredible staff. Our meal was delicious and the bartender made a custom low-cal drink for me. read more

I love the Happy Hour menu! Good food and good drinks. They get kinda busy and you may have to speak up to get served during happy hour, but once you get someone's attention, the staff is helpful. Overall, a good neighborhood hangout with quality food! read more

Fantastic Unexpected Experience at CrabCab - Capitol Heights, MD I recently visited CrabCab thinking I'd get the classic Maryland crab feast--but I was pleasantly surprised to find their menu is way broader than I expected, and in the best way. From the moment I walked in I felt welcomed by the friendly staff and the neighborhood-vibe atmosphere. I ordered a pasta dish (and a few appetizers) rather than the whole crab setup. The appetizers were a great start: the seafood spring rolls and crab & shrimp spinach dip were flavorful and well-executed. The pasta was delicious--rich sauce, generous seafood, perfectly cooked. The menu really showcased how versatile the place is. (And yes, they do have amazing crab-centric items too for next time.) Highlights: *The seafood spring roll tasted fresh and crisp, a lighter appetizer choice. *The crab & shrimp spinach dip had great depth--cheesy, decadent, with the right seafood pop. *My pasta was cooked spot‐on and had a nice, comforting feel. *Staff was attentive, polite, and clearly cared about making sure we enjoyed the meal. *The space felt chill but clean and, honestly, the kind of spot you'd go to for a fun dinner out. If you're in Maryland and looking for something beyond "just crabs," I highly recommend CrabCab. They deliver the crab-house classics and more creative seafood & comfort-food options. I'll definitely be back -- next time I'll try the crab cake platter or something more "crab-centric." Go hungry, be ready for great service, and enjoy the menu's surprises! read more

I've gone to the one in VA...much better. The server at Capital Heights disappeared for a LONG time. We had to get someone else to take our order. The Island Pasta was dry and the Tai Noodle dish was just ok. I guess the server, Imahn B didn't care about us since there is an 18% service fee added to the check. Little did she know, we normally tip more but she won't get anything else. She was at the bar taking shots instead of checking on her ONE table. Customer service means everything to me...they missed the mark big time. FORTUNATELY, Tony was on duty because he stepped up to take care us. He was very attentive. The server, Imahn B was HORRIBLE. She was more concerned about taking shots and being on her phone. read more

I Loved my experience at Crab Cab!!!! The food was absolutely amazing! I order the salmon sandwich with crab fries- Aaron our server was wonderful and accommodating with my change to my meal. My sisters food was sooo good I couldn't decide what I wanted to eat first. The Owner Ms. G was extremely nice and personable. She made sure all our needs were met and invited us to experience both her locations (Capital Heights and Alexandria). This is the perfect place to come for brunch/lunch/dinner/date night/or a girls night! I can't wait to come back!! read more

This is great restaurant add for the area. The interior is beautiful. The service was great starting with the hostess to the wait staff and bartenders. I had a very good pineapple drink. I ordered fried catfish and seasoned fries. I didn't care for the taste of the catfish so I switched to the fried shrimp. I came to the conclusion that I do not like the batter used. I'm definitely going back to try something different. read more

New restaurant alert! The place is beautiful inside. The decor and low lighting make it perfect for date night or a nice chill outing. The music was good. Very 90s R&B. The food was really good. I had the Colossal Stuffed Shrimp with double broccolini because they were out of mashed potatoes. For my drink I got the Triple B which was also very good. They opened recently and the place is small so I HIGHLY recommend a reservation or waiting until it dies down as people were being turned away because it was so packed! They also had to turn off to go orders so the kitchen could catch up. PG County showed up and showed out. I'll definitely be back. read more

One of the few places in PG with outside seating to the bar. The drink was delicious and the food was pretty good. The jerk wings didn't taste like jerk but I enjoyed the spinach dip. The second time I came here I was really disappointed because they arbitrarily closed the kitchen an hour early. It was only 8pm and they mentioned they close early when it's slow. For that, I went down a star. I'll definitely be back though. read more

Crab Cab - Triple B cocktail - Seafood Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

Per the name, seafood is the charm. Located within Ritchie Marketplace, this venue pairs grown n sexy (neutral decor and 90s rnb).....with delicious food and attentive service. I ordered a fried shrimp basket with substituted broccolini , instead of fries and my drink was a Sunset Beach (similar to a tequila sunrise). Minus somewhat of a wait to receive service, the experience was pleasant . The shrimp was seasoned well and seemed to be fried in fresh grease , which provided a light crunch. Meanwhile, the drink definitely packed a punch, so I'd recommend just one. The staff was very professional and matched the overall standard to the new establishment . read more

I arrived at Crab Cab and took a seat at the outside bar. I waited there for over 15 minutes before Imahn, the guy with twisted cornrows, approached me--not to take my order but to ask if he could have my menu for another customer. I politely declined, but mentioned that he could take my order since I had been waiting for so long. He then took my order, which included a happy hour blueberry margarita, seafood spring rolls, crab sliders, and a to-go order of seafood quesadillas. Ten minutes later, I received my spring rolls, and five minutes after that, the sliders arrived. However, at that point, I still hadn't received a place setting, which should have been provided as soon as I sat down at the bar. Fifteen minutes later, I finally got my drink--30 minutes after placing my order--and during all this time, no one checked in to see if I was okay or needed anything. After waiting 45 minutes from when I initially placed my order, I asked Imahn about my to-go order. He went to the register to check and then walked back to the kitchen. After a few minutes, he returned, and I inquired about my food. He explained that the kitchen was backed up due to a high volume of orders. I asked why that was the case, as I thought my order had been submitted at the same time as my other food. He paused and then claimed that he hadn't put it in yet. Essentially, he lied to me. Fifteen minutes later, he finally brought out my food, but I had to wait an additional 10 minutes for a printed receipt. At this point, I am beyond disappointed. It's disheartening to feel that I need to travel to Virginia or far from PG County to receive decent customer service. It seems that when restaurants include a tip in the bill, servers feel they don't need to provide good service. For this reason, Crab Cab will not be seeing me--or my money--again! read more

Crab Cab - Receipt - Seafood Near Me - Capitol Heights, Maryland

The restaurant and nicely decorated. I like that you can enjoy a drink in or outside the bar especially in summer weather. I selected my order to go in which the host takes your order. I was greeted fine. Regarding the food. Ordered the crab cake and disappointed. Just looked like a heap of mess on a grilled old bun. I paid $4 extra for broiled which overall was underwhelming in presentation as well as taste. read more

Terrible! Stay away! I have had absolutely bad service every. Single. Time. I am not going back! The one in VA is muchhhh better. Even the short manager at this location sucks. Do not recommend. Service is soooooooo slow. The bartenders are rude asf! They automatically charge 20% and the attitudes in the restaurant reflect that. Never giving them another damn dime read more

Stopped in on a Saturday evening as we were staying at a nearby hotel. Immediately got 2 seats at the lovely bar area. Restaurant is small and very nicely decorated. Had a delicious glass of their house cab and ordered several apps to share. They were delivered to us one at a time so we could enjoy each one as it was hot from the kitchen. They were perfectly cooked and delicious. We had the seafood spring rolls, the crab puffs and the blackened scallops. I would highly recommend all of them. Music was a bit loud at the bar area for my taste but not loud enough to distract from a wonderful experience. If I'm ever in the area again I will definitely eat here again read more

My wife and I went today and Ashley B was our bartender and she was dope!!! The food was good as well... we will definitely be back when she is behind the bar! The music was chill as well!. read more

Was really looking forward to dining here. I made reservations a month in advance for my friend and I to catch up Friday 1/17 at 7:30pm. Walking in the energy was off. The restaurant appeared to be over capacity. The two women at the hostess stand faces were frowned up and rolling their eyes at everyone entering. I let them know I had a reservation and was told "oh well we ain't got not tables right now". I said even though I have a reservation. She replied "Yeah everyone in here had a reservation for either 6:30 or 7:30. If you want your reservation the wait is 45 mins". Totally unacceptable. I cancelled my reservation and went elsewhere. This encounter completely turned me off from this establishment. read more

I'm from California, and whenever my boyfriend and I travel, we love trying different restaurants. This one is by far some of the best food in town! We had the crab bisque and it's hard to find a good bisque but I absolutely loved it. We also ordered the seafood spring rolls (bomb!) and the crab & shrimp spinach dip, which was also GREAT. The drinks were on point, and last but definitely not least, the lamb chops... hands down the best I've ever had. And I can't forget the amazing service provided by Ashley truly outstanding. Amazing all around. 10 STARS! read more

Food was good. Drinks were good. Atmosphere is great. It's a nice cozy spot. Good fora date night.

I'm torn. A buddy and I went on a Friday evening out of curiosity and hunger. The space is nice. Both great for the fellas to congregate at the bar or to sit and enjoy a night out. The music is an added bonus. Kudos to the cook. The food presentation was dope and it tasted good. We ordered the seafood egg-rolls for an app, then the catfish and the stackanator dinners. Both delicious (but the crab cake was pretty small for the oversized bun). I did appreciate the cook checking on us more than once. The challenge was that our waitress seemed great at first. However, multiple times we looked up and she was seated with other customers which led us to have to either wait or ask someone else for assistance. The two tables beside us seemed to encounter the same issue. One table actually did not like any of their food. At one point, the manager assisted us because he could see that our waitress was not attentive. Then in another moment, the chef and the waitress approached the table at the same time. The waitress started a convo with the table next to us which forced the chef to help us. The biggest issue is that no one seemed bothered by her lack of service and it was never corrected. I believe this could be a good spot, but just needs better service. I hope this is fixed. read more
