Combo C (1/2 lb crab legs, 1/2 lb shrimp (heads off), 1 lobster tail, 2 corn cobs, 2 red potatoes, and sausage); Cajun/Medium Spicy

We were in town and the husband wanted crab legs. He found this place online. Despite the mixed reviews, we decided to give it a try and ordered it to go. Super friendly staff! A bit of a hole in the wall, but do not let the location and appearance fool you! He ordered the Combo C (1/2 lb crab legs, 1/2 lb shrimp (heads off), 1 lobster tail, 2 corn cobs, 2 red potatoes, and sausage. He chose medium spicy/cajun style. He loved it! I even tried the veggies. They were very good! The perfect amount of butter and spice! I ordered the shrimp fried rice and a crab cake. I like to try crab cakes everywhere that has them. I'm a bit of a crab cake connoisseur at this point. The portion size of the shrimp fried rice was quite large! I hardly ate half of the container before becoming full. It had plenty of large shrimp that were perfectly cooked! There aren't many veggies, very few peas and carrots. And eggs, of course. Simple fried rice flavor, so not super intense in the flavor department. I did add soy sauce to add a bit more flavor. I would have liked onions and more veggies, maybe even an option to add some spiciness. The crab cake was delicious! But was super tiny. About the size of the to-go sauce container. Speaking of the sauce, it was delicious! But for $6.99, I would have expected a larger cake. All in all, we enjoyed our meals and would return if we ever visit the area again!

LOVE this banner of the ocean life!

I used to visit Joe's crab shack at least once a month, but since it closed, I stopped searching for another Seafood boil restaurants. We came here for Father's day Seafood boil. This place has surprisingly good food with very reasonable price. *Restaurant: 3/5 *Service: 4/5 *Food: 5/5 *Parking: Free Parking Lot -Restaurant- Restaurant itself I believe used to be a Buffet restaurant, you can clearly see it at the 2nd half of the dining room. It was barely re-renovated, it looks as though they just made the change in the Kitchen and not much modification up front. But we will never know, things might change in the future. With that being said, for the most part the restaurant itself is clean, none of the tables are sticky, or chairs falling apart. -Service- Service is comparable to most buffet and crab boil restaurants. The staffs are friendly. they offer good amount attention to your dining experience, making sure your tables aren't full of crab shells, you have enough water...etc. I also decided to order 1 item to go, they brought it to me when the check was presented not before (Perfect). -Food- We order varies crab boil combos (B and C for the most part), as well as some fried shrimp. I was pleasantly surprised at how reasonable the price is (especially considering how expensive seafood is right now). Crab boils you have at least 4 different flavors to choose from, as well as their own Signature Juicy Crab seasoning. You also have the option to pick your own level of spiciness. Crab boils comes in these huge plastic boil bags, with corn, potatoes and sausages as standard sides, as well as complimentary gloves, bibs and a trash bucket. Seasonings are very good. You can always order more sides as well. In conclusion: Being a seafood lover myself. I will definitely go back again. The food is great, service is good and restaurant is clean.

So I came here with my lady, thinking it was gonna be great and it was far from it. The only thing good here was the sprite and mashed potatoes. The steak was not that good. The corn had no butter what so ever, and if it did I barely tasted it. The steak was mid as can be. The steak was chewy, stringy, and under cooked on top of that the flavory was weird. They took the steak back and gave me a new sirloin and I only ate part of it because I was hungry. I made them take the steak off the bill. Me and my ladies meal was more expensive than Texas Roadhouse. Thats a shame. They finessed my pockets. To each their own, but I would never come here again.

I was in the mood for seafood, but Mr. Bill's was preparing to close. Juicy Crab was the only other option. This was by far the worst seafood I've ever had. I try not to judge a place based on location because I've had some amazing meals at strip malls - not the case here. The establishment is BYO and I highly recommend taking a bottle because you'll need something strong to mask the flavor and wash it all down. The oysters were frozen, in fact, all of the seafood was frozen and the lowest quality likely available for purchase. I had to douse the oyster with lemon and cocktail sauce (which was 99% ketchup) and stopped after the second one. The Hush Puppies were mainly filler and a kernel or two of corn, oddly served with ketchup. Do not be fooled by the photos. They make it look way more appetizing than it really is. The mussels were inedible. We were able to crack the snow crab legs with our bare hands. If you've had crab legs before, you know this is nearly impossible and require a cracker or you'll cut your fingers. The corn was chewy, the butter sauce had no flavor (I requested Old Bay with spice) and all the seafood had the same pungent lingering taste. It's as if all the seafood is boiled/steamed in toilet water. We were unable to finish our meals and ended up getting fast food. $72 later (excluding tip & drive thru meals) - what a waste. Spend the extra five minutes driving to Mr. Bill's or don't go at all. There is no way a person who loves fresh seafood would recommend this place, not even to their worst enemy.

Devour time.

I've been craving seafood for the LONGEST! So I decided to stop by Juicy Crab with my significant other. I ordered the seafood bundle of 1Lb snow crabs, 3 Corns, 1/2lb of shrimp , Sausages & 2 potatoes. The presentation was pretty neat. It came out in a large steamy plastic bag. The flavor was a bit bland I had to add more seasoning to it. It looks as if the sauce was put in first then the seafood that wasn't mixed in the sauce. The waitress was pretty patient, attentive, and honest and I appreciated that. My significant other ordered steak and mashed potatoes and it was VERY bland and chewy. Ps. They gave us a bib and gloves to eat..that was pretty neat. Overall I rate Juicy Crab at this location a 2 star because I will not be returning here.

Sea food boil Combo A

Not a bad boil place. Coworker and I stoped here for dinner when we were in the area. We decide to give this a shot. I got the garlic butter combo A. The shrimp was slightly over cooked. Dinner was a bit on the expensive side, but there was plenty of food.

Snow crab legs with potato and corn

I was feeling a bit dubious about this concept in this location (a random strip mall in Lancaster). A friend of mine had visited several times and finally convinced me to go. We had snow crab legs with potato and corn and an order of hush puppies. Delicious! I will definitely be back.

Best seafood in the area!!

This place is phenomenal! Worth the drive and the price! Service is also great! Truly recommend!!

Boil A and B with blue crab boil

Not disappointed, this was a great find :) service was great food was awesome. Six of us had three different boils and it was more than enough and under 100$ was the topper:) If you need a seafood fix I recommend Juicy Crab!Juicy Special Cajun

I'm not sure where to start except to say thar John Jeffries in one of the best dining experiences…read moreI've had in Central PA. Five absolutely well-earned stars. I visited as part of a work related event and was able to enjoy both the bar and dining room. The bar selections were first-rate and while not extensive they were well-considered. John Jeffries specializes in local farm to table ingredients. I enjoyed a watercress potato soup followed by the Puedmontese grass-fed petite beef steak. Both were absolutely delicious. The service was first-rate: friendly and attentive without being obnoxious and VERY well-trained to a level you'd expect in a much larger city. Can't wait to bring my companion back for a visit that I know she will love.

Slightly upscale American restaurant that is part of a hotel…read more I came here for dinner with my fiance (we tried both a chicken a risotto dish) and we were not very impressed with the quality of the food, especially given the steep price tag. I also got a drink that was not very good either. We visited for my birthday, and they gave us a choice of either a complimentary prosecco or dessert. We opted for dessert, and we tried their key-lime pie, but we were also unimpressed. They also forgot to comp the desert on the bill until after I saw it on there and reminded them Our server was very friendly, however she was MIA for large portions of the night The complimentary bread & butter was tasty

Went to the Horse Inn last week and had a really good time. Cool place. You kinda feel like you are…read morein an old horse barn which is actually pretty sweet. They do this mystery beer thing which is just a cheap beer but it's fun and feels on brand for the place. Food wise the beef tips are the move. I would honestly go back just for that. Good spot overall.

This place was BUSY on a Saturday night (a good thing for a restaurant and a good sign for those…read morecoming in for the first time)... we didn't have a reservation, having planned to late, but they do keep tables open for walk-ins and despite being told it was an hour wait (whatever, we knew we ran that risk), we were seated in 15 minutes - Luck, maybe? But awesome all the same! For how busy they were, the server was very attentive and very accommodating as we were yapping away and constantly not ready with our orders so kuddos for the team and putting up with us! I love the mystery beer concept, its not great beer, but being from DC at like $2 a can, I am not passing that up, ever. And a cheap beer with a burger is the perfect combo! On to the burger... I have heard that this is a great burger... and I have to conclude that I agree though it is reminiscent of a Big Mac - just way better ingredients - it has to be the sauce they put on it... Anyway, nice size patty, good amount of toppings and a quality bun (not too soft, not too thick, bread soaks up some of the juices but doesn't fall apart). The mussels were quite excellent as well. It was a Thai curry broth the night we were there and it was drinkable, like soup... we did ask for extra bread... enough said. I am going to take a minute too and praise their spirit free cocktails. THIS IS HOW THEY SHOULD BE MADE. They used bitters, tonics, etc to craft something that tasted like a cocktail but without alcohol which means they were not sickly sugary concoctions, but expertly crafted beverages. Just really great options. All that said though, their espresso martini was one of the worst I have had. Just skip that.

My wife and I dined at Passerine in Lancaster for Valentine's Day and chose the $75 per person…read morefixed-price five-course menu. Unfortunately, the evening was very disappointing. When we were seated, we were given the prix fixe food menu but never provided with a drink menu. We were served water, but our waitress didn't ask if we'd like cocktails, wine, or any featured Valentine's drinks. For a special occasion dinner, that felt like a major oversight. The bigger issue, though, was the food. Several courses were noticeably undercooked and difficult to enjoy. The carrot salad had hard, undercooked carrots and a very bitter sauce that overwhelmed the dish. The grilled Badger Flame beets were also undercooked and had an unpleasant flavor. The beet risotto was firm and lacked the creamy consistency you expect from a properly prepared risotto. The halibut tasted overly fishy and seemed undercooked in the center. For $75 per person on Valentine's Day, we expected a polished, thoughtfully executed experience. Instead, the meal felt poorly prepared and not worth the price. It was an unsatisfying way to spend what should have been a special evening. The ambiance was very nice but the rest of the experience left a lot to be desired.

20 years with Bird called for a great night out and Josephine's absolutely delivered…read more From the moment we walked in, Tate and Grant were incredible and made our anniversary dinner feel genuinely special without overdoing it. Great service like that still matters. Bird went with the crab cake and was already planning her next visit halfway through dinner. I started with the shrimp cocktail, followed by the Caesar salad and filet, all outstanding. Everything was paced perfectly and cooked exactly right. And then came dessert...which somehow topped everything else. Incredible way to finish the night. Between the food, atmosphere, and service, it was the perfect spot to celebrate 20 years, plenty of laughs, good memories, and another adventure for the books. Highly recommend.

This was my first time dining at Josephine's. We enjoyed the laid-back not rushing us evening. Our server took our drink orders then came back to ask if we wanted to place any appetizer orders. We ordered the mussels and shrimp appetizer. It was absolutely amazing! They were in a herb butter sauce. We were also given a bread service to which we immediately wiped up the butter sauce! I went with the crabcake, which was the sizes of softball and was full of lump crab. The potatoes and vegetables were delicious. My friend ordered the salmon and she said it was perfectly cooked. She also got the potatoes and vegetables. We each ordered a dessert. I went with the choux Cage which I enjoyed, but didn't like the chocolate that they were sitting on. Once I figured that out, I really enjoed the dessert. My friend ordered the Chocolate Rocher dessert and loved every bite of it. It was definitely a treat to go to Josephine's and I hope I get the opportunity to come back.
