    Still loving crabs down under. The card machine worked the last time I was there and the owner/workers are very kind/appreciative. The crabs are HUGE and seasoned just right. My only ask is that they keep their social media page updated with hours crab availability. Otherwise, these are still my favs. Yum!

    I absolutely love their crabs... they are really good, juicy, meaty and tasty... I also had shrimp from there which were equally good. Me and my family thoroughly enjoyed them and will return. P.S I would call in the order as they can be a bit crowded.

    Very disappointed. The website and the sign out front says that they're open daily. I drove all the way over here and they're closed. Never again. At least have a message on the answering machine that you're closed today like Blake's does. They make black businesses look bad.

    Let out of the way for me but I wanted to support local small businesses during these times. The crabs are pretty good! Got them for a party and feed about 6-7 people and that's good amount and half bushel was finished. They have garlic butter and paper here. This was half bushel ProTip: the lower cost crabs are mixed and some of it are picking crabs. Request to not over Cook the crabs, this would change the game here. Mines were a tab bit cooked over but overall no complaints. Call ahead!

    First black owned crab shop we've ever encountered and were not disappointed. We're super fans. We came the Saturday of labor day weekend and got 2 dozen large males. The flavor and seasoning they use is something I've never experienced before. It was a little hard to spot because we're new to MD, but we know how to get there now. The man who took our order was nice and let us know their debit machine was down, but since our order was 25 minutes out, it was no problem to go get cash. I really like that they have the shell sizes on the wall in the store area as it makes it easier to choose your size. Let me tell you, these larges were HEAVY and even when we got to the end of the bag, the bag was still heavy and we were 3/4 done. They also heated up well the day before. I will say, you may want to take them all out of the bag because the ones at the bottom sit and soak up the delicious seasonings they use and while it's tasty, the salt will get in the meat and make it too salty for some. We plan to come back for the Xtra large at some point. This is the only crab spot we've tried, but I see no point in going to another. We also got corn with our order and I like the unique way of cooking it in the same space they do the crab. Don't sleep on this place and make sure you check them out. I never got photos of our actual crab, just our table at home halfway through. I do recommend going early so that you have a wide selection of sizes.

    The crabs were good and meaty. Front window service was okay. I will be back to buy more crabs and also give them an opportunity to get 5 stars. The sign on the inside says credit and cash. However, when I arrived the guy at the front said cash only. There is an atm in the liquor store next door. I read that several other customers reported arriving with credit and was told cash only because the card system was down. So just a tip... make sure you bring cash.

    OMG. HOW DID I NOT KNOW I LIVED 10 MINUTES FROM THE BEST CRAB HOUSE IN MARYLAND?! The experience from start to finish was nothing short of amazing! This was my first time visiting and I was and still am, super pleased with the service and quality of the crabs. We asked a few folks if they'd been here before and SEVERAL people made it a point to share that some of them drive FORTY-FIVE minutes just to get these crabs. Let me tell y'all, it's justified! I purchased 2 dozen large female crabs; Baby them thangs was HEAVY! They were so hot and juicy we said F*ck it we'll snap pics next time we just wanted to dig in LOL. Crabs Down Under will be seeing a lot of me this summer and beyond lol. Well done fam!

    Still a fan. It just keeps getting better. My large females were nice and heavy and seasoned well. I've been twice this Summer and I will be returning without a doubt.

I tried to pay cash but the cashier counted only $30 so I paid on my credit card. Before I even had the opportunity to use the touch pad to put in a tip she immediately hit enter several times so it bypassed all the options for tip, text receipt etc.... I was thinking ok, not wanting a tip I guess. It seemed rather rude. While we waited I counted my cash and I did have $40 so I'm not sure what was up with her math. Food came out really fast. Our drive was not far so our food should have been hot. Instead the small racquet ball size crab cakes were cold. I don't even think they were cooked thru. I had to stick in air fryer to get them warmed up. The coleslaw which on previous visits was good lacked any flavor besides mayonnaise. My poor wife cracked down on a sharp pointy shell in her crab cake. Needless to say we were both disappointed and still hungry. I'm not sure what happened but we won't be going back anytime soon. I think we'll stick with Pappas.

The crab soup was one of the best I've had -- creamy, flavorful, and packed with chunky crab meat. All the crabs were full, with plump, sweet meat. We paid about $34 each and were completely stuffed. We even had three crabs left over! It's a pure seafood market with no seats or tables, so we brought everything back to our apartment and feasted!

I'm so used to being the one with the money, it was kind of odd to be told that it was their treat. And it really was a treat. The next best thing to a Calabash. Or at least as close as we can find in the Baltimore area. I was surprised by how much food they brought to our table. If you get the all-you-can-eat (which you should), you choose two appetizers (per person), a side dish, four protein options (and yes, you CAN double up and get two orders of snow crab legs), and a dessert. It's BYOB (there's a liquor store in the same group of stores). Soft drinks are $2.50 (I think). I had some pretty tasty onion rings and hush puppies. Could have used some ketchup. i have no idea why these came with a container of melted butter, but it did come in handy for dipping my snow crab. The cheese sticks were not a hit. Jeremy said the calamari was "jerky." The chicken wings were tasty. You get to have boiled egg, potato, and corn in your boil bag, but you don't HAVE to have any of it. The egg was over-boiled. Then you pick your proteins. I had double snow crab and double head-on shrimp. Both were wonderful. The sausage is pretty yummy, too. There are three sauces to choose from, or you can have them mix them. I went for a mix of all three, but kinda wish that I had passed on the cajun seasoning. I didn't really like that. Neither did Jeremy. And then you pick your spice level. I got medium, but it wasn't spicy at all. I'm fine with that. I didn't get a side dish, but others got cole slaw and gumbo - both got the thumbs up. I feel like a failure because I couldn't finish my meal. I actually left behind two snow crab legs. My belly was just too full. SO many shrimps!! Jeremy was the only one who got a second serving. I left the restaurant incredibly satisfied, with melted butter up to my elbows, and crab in my hair. We had so much fun. We were allowed to take or dessert home. I introduced my cat to cheesecake, and I think he discovered his new favorite food. I would recommend.

Located on a strip with other surrounding stores it had plenty of parking. It's BYOB since they don't have the bar set up so fountain drinks on hand to order. I got an order of the oysters for an appetizer I asked where they were from and got they were from a place called local.... They were totally fresh but didn't have any taste pretty much like water. We ordered our boils I got snow crab, crawfish and head on shrimp which were fine with all the sauces mixed and hot but the meal had really no heat or real seasoning at all. The boils had minimal sauce that barely coated the bottom of the bag. Tee was great didn't come when we had a mouthful of seafood so I was grateful. I'm sure the karaoke is everything they've got a cute little stage and sound system set up so I might come back for that. Bathroom rating:4.5/5 the water pressure is waaay too hard water went everywhere

He didn't finish it and gave the rest to me. By that time, the shrimp and Cajun fries were cold- AND STILL DELICIOUS! I ate the whole thing and promised myself that I would make a visit to get my own basket. Just a few days later, I did what I said and visited Juicy King. It's in a convenient location in the Putty Hill Plaza. It is housed in the former Peking House restaurant. I made a call to put my order in. The woman over the phone told me that it would be ten minutes. When I arrived, it was ready for me. The meal comes with two sauces, cocktail & tartar sauce, along with salt, pepper and ketchup. When I took a bite of the catfish, words couldn't describe how crispy and delicious this fish was. So light and flavorful! The shrimp were as tasty as the first time, even more so that I ate them hot. The fries were perfectly seasoned. So, so perfect. They give you perfect portions, as well! This is definitely my favorite thing on the menu. I turned my sister and mom onto them and they both agreed on how awesome the fish and shrimp box was! Now for my third trip, I had a taste for hibachi and remembered that Juicy King had a hibachi menu. I decided upon the shrimp, chicken and steak. I believe it was about 30 dollars. It was pretty good BUT not as good as another restaurant (that I won't name out of respect), that makes a similar dish. However, it wasn't bad, and the ingredients were fresh. The restaurant isn't fancy, but it is clean and nice enough to sit down for lunch or dinner. I'm getting hungry thinking about their fish and shrimp right now! You will not be sorry. Highly recommended!

The restaurant is spacious, spotless, and has a welcoming atmosphere that's perfect for families, date nights, or large groups. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Everyone we encountered was genuinely friendly, and our server, Talia, was attentive, knowledgeable, and made us feel well taken care of throughout the meal. Now... let's talk about the food. We started with the hush puppies, which came out hot, fresh, and had the perfect hint of sweetness. They were a great way to kick off the meal. The fried green tomatoes almost stole the show. Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and topped with sweet, tender jumbo lump crab meat....they were absolutely phenomenal and a must-order. The Conrad Soup was another standout. Rich, creamy, hearty, and packed with flavor. It tasted homemade in the best way possible. I also have to give a shoutout to the personal pitcher of sweet tea. As someone who appreciates good sweet tea, it's surprisingly hard to find one that's actually done right. Conrad's nailed it. But the undeniable star of the meal was the steamed blue crabs. I called ahead to reserve 12 large male crabs, which I highly recommend doing if you're planning a visit. Every single crab was perfectly steamed, generously seasoned, and absolutely loaded with sweet, tender meat. They were some of the best steamed crabs I've had in a long time. We purposely came early for lunch so we could take our time, and I'm so glad we did because this was an experience worth savoring. Conrad's exceeded every expectation I had. Between the outstanding service, incredible food, and relaxed atmosphere, I already know I'll be making the drive back. If you're a Maryland crab lover, this place deserves a spot at the top of your list. 10/10!! I'll definitely be back!
