Now I might give them another try but I would have to see the crabs before I bought as this time I…read moreordered over the phone. Now the crabs tasted pretty good as well as the shrimp...but these were suppose to be JUMBO! Now I've had jumbo and colossal blue crabs before and they were HUGE! These are best were maybe large because most were pretty heavy...but that doesn't mean they are jumbo. So I really didn't like that I paid 90/dz for what I thought would be huge and get home and see these tiny crabs. The owners were really nice and even provided me with some newspaper to eat my crab. But to say these are jumbo is dishonest. Especially when the price is up there in this economy.

I've been wanting to try this spot for a while now and finally decided to stop by on a Friday…read morenight. 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....

I love Chinese, but it just doesn't taste the same anymore. I've found Fried rice to be undercooked…read moreand underseasoned. The individuals who answer the phones and take orders are rude, and the overall quality is lacking. I saw this place on TikTok and noticed that it was located in my old neighborhood, so I decided to give it a try. The employees were kind and walked me through the menu, which led me to order catfish and fried shrimp rice. Y'all, Chinese food in the District Heights/Forestville area hasn't tasted this good since the 90's. My combo meal cost around 15 bucks, and it included a yellow drink. I won't call it lemonade, because it was old-school lemon-flavor Kool-Aid. It was sooo good, and if you put it in the freezer and added Henny, it would make a great evening. I will be back!

This spot is one of my go-tos for fresh seafood that tastes like butter and melts in your mouth. I…read moreusually come here during the week especially on Monday nights when there's a spades group that hosts games and it's always a good time. My usual order is the Boom Boom Shrimp, which always comes out hot, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. This past Sunday, I decided to try their bottomless seafood special, and it did not disappoint. For under $40, you can eat as much seafood as you want, and the portions are huge. They offer multiple flavor options and allow you to customize your spice level to match your palate. The drinks are great too, though they're an additional cost still reasonably priced. During football season, it can get a bit loud, so if you prefer a quiet dining environment, that's something to keep in mind. The service could be a little better, but overall, it's a great experience if you're coming for the food. Delicious seafood, generous portions, and fun vibes definitely worth a visit!

Customer Service- So nice, family owned with great service.

No seating areas but you have the mall or car to chill and wait. If you have time, there's a barber shop literally NEXT door for a fresh cut. Definitely a must try spot for something quick to grab worth the money and taste.

Driving by this place dozens of times so, now I had to stop. The place wasn't too busy at this time…read moreof day and I'm glad I stopped in. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. I guess they could tell that this was my first time visiting. Everything smelled wonderful while I was waiting for my order and there are a couple of tables for people to sit and enjoy their meal. This is primarily a takeout establishment, but you can sit down. Space is kind of limited for an inside dining experience. I got a shrimp basket with fries and coleslaw and an order of clam strips for my wife. The orders were tasty. My wife enjoyed her clam strips and my fried shrimp with fries and Cole slaw was still hot when I got home. No pictures to share this time

OMG! I think I found my #2 fresh seafood spot because the Wharf/Captain White's will always be #1!…read more BUT...Lucas is the bomb and because they are literally 8 minutes from my house. So I've only being in PG County for about 5-months so I'm trying to find all the spots. And everybody knows that the hood spots usually slap! And this place did not disappoint me at all! So getting into the parking lot is a little tricky because it is on a very busy road. But I had a nice person who let me in so I didn't have to wait in the middle of the street to turn in. I backed in and got out because I was really intrigued in how high this post has got in the Yelp! And when I walked in I could tell this was certified hood spot because the Asian guy in there had the swag. I ended up getting 2.5lbs crab legs, a lb of jumbo shrimp, and 2lbs of large shrimp. I got everything steamed expect the large shrimp to keep for home for another day. He was really cool and even threw in (2) sides of extra seasoning and even a carrot cake for free. Which I thought was really nice. He did ask me if I wanted butter which I said yes, but he must forgot because I didn't get any melted butter...maybe next time. The menu is extensive so you will find something you want fried, steamed, and a combination of both. The seafood was steamed perfectly and I can't wait to come back! PSA: next door is a convenience store which I would not recommend because the guy behind the counter acted like he couldn't speak. Mofo was silent as if he was mute. So 0/10 for that place. But Old Lucas 10/10 will recommend all day long!

If Chipotle had a soulful, culturally rich cousin... it would be Spice Black. Period…read more I've been seeing this place all over social media, so when I found myself in the area, I had to see what the hype was about. First off, parking is easy. It's in a shopping center, so nothing stressful there, and the restaurant itself is easy to spot. Walking in, the first thing I noticed was how clean, polished, and classy everything looked. Even though it was busy, it didn't feel chaotic. The staff immediately greeted me and asked if it was my first time which I appreciated. They didn't just rush me through the line; they actually took time to explain the menu, how the bowls are built, and offered samples. That alone made the experience feel welcoming and intentional. Now let's get into the FOOD. Everything looked fresh. They have about four rice options (which is already a win), and I went with the pineapple coconut rice. For my protein, I chose grilled chicken, but they also offer shrimp, salmon, and even a mushroom option for vegetarians and honestly, the mushrooms looked so good I almost switched. For my added sides, I kept it simple because I really wanted to taste everything. Collard greens and sweet potatoes. But they also had plantains, and okra....real deal soul food options. Then you get into the fresh toppings. Slaws, carrots, pickled veggies. I kept it light. I finished my bowl with collard green pesto (which intrigued me, and I'm glad I tried it) and added an étouffée sauce over my rice... and listen!!!!! That combo? Chef's kiss. I grabbed a tropical punch juice, and just like everything else, it tasted fresh and well-made. Let me say this clearly: the food is a 10/10. If you're someone who will give Chipotle chance after chance, then you absolutely owe it to yourself to try Spice Black. 10/10. Worth your money. Worth the hype. Worth the experience.
