    Stopped in for lunch at Crabby Maggie's while visiting Strasburg. I'd seen the place pop up on social 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.

    Delicious popcorn shrimp appetizer. We've been to Crabby Maggie's previous location. This is our first time visiting their new location. We ordered takeout. Great service with a smile. Nicely decorated and more spacious interior.

    This weekend we ventured north on Route 11 in Virginia through the Shenandoah Valley for the "Route 11 Yard Crawl" - a 40+ mile route of yard sales, flea markets and vendors! While there were plenty of food trucks, we found this spot on Yelp and had to go! We were not disappointed!! We got the crab dip with pretzels to start, then the Crabby Jim sandwich and the Crab Mac'n Cheese - all were exceptional!! The place was super busy, but we were able to sit pretty quickly and waitstaff were very friendly and accommodating. Cute indoor seafood restaurant decor and nice outside seating too. Menu includes a variety of seafood and non-seafood options. Many things I wanted to try! Hushpuppies were spot on too!! The owner stopped by and chatted several times. We will go back! Check this spot out! #deitzeatz

    Crab leg cluster

    The server was extremely tentative and nice. The place was very cute and cozzy. The bathroom could use some attention, the sink is like a power washer and a bit aggressive. Regretted getting the crab cluster as it was only one crab when I could've gotten a pound for $5 more. The crab is also cooked plain with an old bay shaker at the table. The bang bang shrimp was very good. My boyfriend got the "crusty Mac" and said there were shells inside the crab cake, wasn't a fan of that and the amount of crab cake in it.

    This place has such good food! We came out of town from Baltimore and the food is delicious. We also had cream of crab soup that was really good! Also the employees and manager are so kind. Highly recommend!!!

    Crusty Mac -- Crabcake, white cheddar, bacon, and mozzarella bake. Delicious!

    Food was delicious and the atmosphere was friendly and relaxed. Would recommend when visiting Strasburg!

    Fried Cod
    Beau A.

    If I was to tell you it was wonderful it would be grossly inadequate. This was life altering. The crab is the jewell of the State of Virginia. The fried cod was what we've been looking for since we moved out to the Eastcoast from TX four years ago. This place rocks. And the staff is super friendly and accommodating. The atmosphere is homey, welcoming and feels like you're over toward the coastline. AWESOME EXPERIENCE!!!

    Fish and chips with green beans
    Lia B.

    Led here by Yelp while driving to DC. What a great find! Seating inside and outside on the patio. Felt very much like having dinner with friends in this mostly locals spot. Hubby & I had fish and chips: his with hush puppies and mine with green beans. Hushpuppies were crunchy outside and buttery smooth inside. Fish was cooked perfectly (done without being dry). Son had blackened Mahi with real onion rings and green beans (he ate too fast for a picture). Mahi was crusted with Cajun spices and was very juicy. Be aware: Portions are HUGE! Service was attentive making sure no cup was emptied. We were tickled to find sweet tea. The restaurant was playing vintage blues music which was the cherry on top of this affordable and tasty meal.

    We were stuck in traffic on I81 and decided to hop off the exit at Strasburg and grab a bite to eat. We found this adorable restaurant and were greeted by Maggie herself, she was a delight. We had a fabulous time and the food was amazing. The hush puppies were the best we have ever had and the crab cakes were out of this world according to my husband. I had the gulf shrimp and onion rings, can't wait to have those again! We took the peach cheesecake home and it was delicious! We can't wait to return, we have found a new favorite restaurant!

    Calamari

    I wanted to like this place so bad but I was severely disappointed. The space is very small and the food is awful. I'll break this down by each item we ordered: Crab fries: overly seasoned fries with what appeared to be a mayo based sauce and COLD crab meat. This was the most unpleasant menu item that we tried. Calamari: you can tell these are premade, frozen and shipped and then they just drop them in a fryer. Small and super rubbery and served with the same super mayonnaisey Cajun sauce as the crab fries were. Burger: premade, frozen and reheated hamburger patty that was not quality at all. Shrimp Po boy: ON A HAMBURGER BUN?! Shredded lettuce and that same tired Cajun sauce (this sauce was on EVERY SINGLE ITEM WE ORDERED) White cheddar mac and cheese: watery, no flavor and probably came from a box. You could not pay me to return.

It came with a hot marinara sauce. It was delicious. My mother ordered broiled flounder with baked potatoes and salad. I ordered make my own 3 items which included fried Soft shell crab, fired scallops and crab cake with sides of baked potatoes and onion rings. All dishes came with hush puppies. My sister had fried oysters. They said the broiled flounder had no taste. I liked all my dishes though the crab cake was saltier for me than I normally like. They give you all sorts of sauce and special butter for the baked sweet potatoes. The waitress was really nice and came back and refilled my soda a lot. It's an old restaurant and the ambience is lots of people come here for seafood. Considering it's not close to any sea, it's pretty good. I forgot to take photos to share.

We were greeted and told we could sit anywhere. It was around 4pm so it was pretty empty. We sat at a booth and ordered drinks. Our server was friendly. I will say there was no music playing and we were sitting near the kitchen. We could hear basically everything going on and the other couple in the rooms conversation, which was a bit odd. We ordered the fried chicken based on reviews and it was delicious. I would highly recommend getting the fried chicken. The green beans were also really good. I can't really speak on anything else. The place is pretty large, before we left we took a walk around and found a pretty cool bar in the back and some patio seating. All in all I would compare this to a typical country roadside diner. Good homestyle cooking at good prices.

We've had plenty of bad experiences with Chinese buffet seafood making us feel sick--pretty sure I'm not the only one--but that has never happened here. The food is always freshly steamed and served hot when you order. I'm not a big fan of overly salty, heavy American-style seasoning, so I really appreciate that they can prepare it without all that. Also, my daughter doesn't eat much seafood, but they're flexible and let us order something simple like a mozzarella stick for her, which is a huge plus. Yes, there's an 18% gratuity for parties of 5 or more, but it feels fair for the quality and service. The gumbo you can order on the side is amazing, and the crab legs, mussels, clams, and shrimp are all fresh and delicious. It's $58.99 per person, which isn't cheap, but definitely worth it. Highly recommend.

We started with the hush puppies, sweet potato fries and chicken wings. All were perfectly fried and tasty. The hush puppies were the highlight. Then we moved onto our seafood. We got a huge platter of snow crab legs, a lobster tail, shrimp and mussels. The seafood came out piping hot and cooked well. I wish the seafood had a bit more seasoning and less chunks of garlic. But, overall enjoyed it! They give you gloves and a bib so you can dig in without worrying getting too messy. One special thing they have on the menu is their ramen side. I've never seen this at other crab boils. The ramen is so tasty in the garlic butter sauce. It was my favorite part and I kept going back for more! We ordered another platter of seafood and were stuffed! The service can be improved. Our waitress came by a few times but not enough to get refills on our drinks or other things we needed. But, overall a good experience.
