Carry out only..... I had the "Bobbi" ... Crabmeat cheddar cheese and bacon "panini" style. Excellent! Hobo potatoes with old bay were cooked and seasoned to perfection Really nice place - very Friendly! Note: the Yelp directions are a little off. This place is on top of the hill North of the dam.

Wonderful!

This was not our first trip to Water Street. We've been many times and it's a favorite…read more We went to celebrate my Birthday. After we were seated I was greeted with a birthday card and a hand painted oyster shell Christmas ornament. The weather was bad so the deck was closed. Our waitress was excellent, gave us the specials, and had our drinks out in minutes. Cream of Crab Soup and Steamed claim in garlic butter are must haves. The Cream of Crab is some of the best on the Easy Coast. My wife ordered the Salmon BLT wrap. I had the Salt Life. Scallops, shrimp, lump crab and cod in an amazing Old Bay Alfredo sauce. This was the first time eating inside. We still had a beautiful view down the Susquehanna River. Another perfect afternoon and meal at Water Street Seafood. Made all the more special with the gift and card! Thank You.

I had a wonderful experience dining here. We made reservations for an outside table at lunch. Since…read morewe were hungry for seafood, we ordered several things: 1/2 pound of shrimp, fresh grilled fish, crab hush puppies, raw oysters and clams. Everything was great. Probably my favorite things were the crab hush puppies, and the fresh fish, served with pineapple. The entrees came with two sides. Therefore, I tried four sides. The French fries and potato salad were really good. The fresh vegetables had onions in it. I am not a big onion fan. The coleslaw was good. Next time, I will order the fish, with just one side- the potato salad was very large. For an appetizer, I will get the clams again, and the crab hush puppies. Yelp was so helpful guiding me to the hush puppies. The chef prepared our food outstandingly. Coral was are very friendly server. A nice meal with an outstanding server and a view of the water made for an excellent day. The host and the people helping out to clear the table were very nice, also. The vibe at the restaurant was a tropical beach feeling. People were dressed casually, mostly in t-shirts.

This place had been on my radar for a while, but when I recently learned that Grappling Crab Shack…read morewas serving Crab Stuffed Deviled Eggs, there was no longer any point in delaying the inevitable. A crabby dinner needed to happen...immediately! I recruited an adventure buddy and we made plans to meet at Grappling Crab Shack's creekside home base on a rainy Saturday evening. We arrived around 5pm, about an hour before closing, and thanks to the rain, we had the place almost entirely to ourselves! If you've never been, Grappling Crab Shack is a local family-owned business specializing in fresh Maryland blue crabs, gourmet crab cakes, seasonal seafood specialties, catering and a food truck that travels throughout the area. It's one of those hidden gems that feels like you've stumbled onto a local secret. Since it was our first visit, we decided to do what any reasonable seafood lovers would do....order basically everything! First up were the Crab Stuffed Deviled Eggs ($18 for six). Holy. Cow! These were TREMENDOUS! The filling was loaded with crab, each egg was topped with a little bit of bacon and they disappeared from the plate embarrassingly fast. If you visit Grappling Crab Shack and don't order these, I genuinely think you're making a mistake! Next came the Cajun Jambalaya ($10) with chicken, smoked sausage, tomatoes, trinity vegetables and Cajun spices. This was excellent. Smoky, flavorful, and carrying just enough heat to let you know it was Cajun without setting your face on fire. My adventure buddy never once reached for hot sauce, which says a lot! Then came the Cheesy Crab Bites ($15). These might actually be my favorite surprise of the evening. Homemade crab cake mix blended with mozzarella, cream cheese and garlic, rolled in panko and Old Bay, fried until golden and served with a house remoulade. I'd choose these over mozzarella sticks every single day of the week! The cheese pulls were absolutely glorious, and the remoulade added the perfect tangy finish. Finally, we tackled the Gourmet Crab Cake ($17). This thing was HUGE! Made with fresh Maryland blue crab, it was beautifully seasoned, perfectly cooked, and held together much better than several crab cakes I've had recently. I'm actually glad we skipped ordering it as a sandwich because the crab cake itself deserved to be the star of the show. Our total came to right around $60, and considering how much food we ordered, plus the leftovers we both brought home, I thought it was money well spent. We grabbed one of the covered tables out back overlooking the yard and listening to the creek rush by. Despite the rain, it was a really relaxing place to enjoy dinner. I can only imagine how nice it is on a sunny summer evening. The staff couldn't have been kinder, bringing everything out to us with smiles and making us feel right at home. This place is an absolute hidden gem and one of my favorite seafood spots to have checked out in the last few months! I'll definitely be back, preferably on a dry evening when I can fully enjoy the creekside setting. If you love crab, seafood, or just supporting awesome local businesses, don't sleep on Grappling Crab Shack. And whatever you do...order the deviled eggs!

They allowed us to upgrade from the standard medium crabs to no. 1's for only $5 more. The only problem was, we had nowhere to eat. The server suggested a park on the water about 2 miles away. It was nice with pavilions and picnic tables. Would have been better if it wasn't so windy and cool, but we survived. It would be nice if the trailer added a few tables and maybe a portable toilet.

So now I can take a 25 minute ride and feast safely. My wife died last year after a long illness and it's been 3 years since I cracked crabs. Eating crabs is a social event and we always had them for a crowd. However, I'm on my own now and seldom have company for dinner, but today I said heck with friends. I want some crabs. These folks sell a Bay Box consisting of 3 perfectly seasoned crabs, about a half pound or more of shrimp, and a tasty ear of roasted local corn on a cob. $20! Perfect for my appetite and wallet. I'm thinking I could do this at least once a week. I can't tell you how wonderful these folks are. Great food AND service so I am going to get names to share with you tomorrow. I think it's really important to recognize people who make our lives better and share their kindness so freely. It's a cute little, colorful building with a big front covered porch and shaded outdoor tables for eating. Comfy. My new go-to crab house for singles or a crowd.

One day last month my wife and I wanted to have some steamed crabs for dinner. All the places we saw only had female or medium crabs and as a rule my wife actually wants to early big crabs. She says smaller crabs aren't workers the trouble and although the bigger crabs cost more, after eating find the cost is about the same. Well we stopped by this little place and I asked for Jumbo , to my surprise Ed and Lucy had a dozen left of Jumbos. I ordered and wow is all I can say. Big and full plus he seasons then perfect. Gives you free brown paper too. lol Well these crabs were so good when I gave grandkids come in from other areas , I call and order. Never have been disappointed. As a matter of fact I called for what I think was the 3rd order this week. My grandson from UNLV was visiting and wanted crabs. I got 3 Bozeman of his biggest and 4 emweee not just Jumbos but 9 inches and one 10 inches point to point but the real thing is how great they tasted. I also ordered shrimp and yes they also had amazing flavor. Mr Ed and Lucy we will be back for a 4tg order soon.By the way my wife said to say thank you for carrying the crabs to the car. This little place near the Sheds for sale is a great place to get steamed crabs from. Only two people work here and it's best to order a day or two in advance but I think you can just drive up as well as I did my first time and loved the crabs

There are other parking lots throughout the town which would allow you to be close to the restaurant. There's a bar area, and a dining area. They do have outdoor seating as well. We sat at the bar. Super nice servers. You can tell they are happy and that this is a place where they focus on customers. Could see that there were several locals eating and drinking. Seemed many regulars were there. Ordered onion rings that were delicious. Then had 2 burgers - The Heater (no bun) and the monthly special which had sloppy Joe on it. The Heater was good. The sloppy Joe one was meh as the sloppy Joe part was very light as far as serving size so could barely taste. The burgers themselves are absolutely delicious! They use local butchers burgers (Bowman Butchers). You can clearly taste the difference. So good. We got fries with one (get those) and tots with the other (skip these). This is a terrific place to get good food and wonderful service. We didn't do drinks, but the bar is fully stocked and they have lots on tap. Worth a stop!!
