    Cute decor.
    Angela B.

    A friend of mine and I drove to my hometown area for patio furniture shopping in Saluda and we stopped here for lunch. Even though I'm from WP, I've never been to The Blue Crab. The decor was really cute. Very nautical (of course). I'm bummed we didn't go on Sunday!! AYCE crab legs?! Yum! But the food we ordered was very delicious. We started with the crab dip (kinda pictured in a corner shot) and then we both had the crab cake sandwich for our meal. The crab cake was hefty! All crab meat. I barely saw any filler. I miss the taste of blue crabs! Service was decent. We waited for a little bit to be seated.. it seemed like there was one server for the 14-18 people (6-7 tables).

    ****We went as a group of 5. This is a quaint little restaurant on Main Street in West Point. It was a cozy atmosphere. Between all 5 of us we had: Cod Fish Sandwich Very good- the breading kept falling off the fish. It was moist. The fish was thick and juicy. Lemon Pepper Salmon Cooked "medium" with good flavor. Very flavorful and moist. The Brussels sprouts were yummy and the mashed potatoes had their skins in it. Everything was delicious. Crab dip The pita bread is like a fried chip. There is too much old bay for our liking but the dip itself is amazing!!! Poke Bowl- raw It is good, but too much pickled cabbage. She crab soup It was "on point". The cup is perfect. The bowl is too big- definitely a shareable item in a bowl. Calamari It was average. It was crispy and flavorful. The soup was better. It was not rubbery and fried well. Caramel Cheesecake The crust and caramel are make this cale VERY sweet. Too sweet. Key Lime pie It has a strong like taste to it. Probably one of the best. Very smooth. Carrot Cake The carrot cake is moist, and dense. It has a slight sweetness to it but the texture is slightly off. Our server was very attentive, however they switched out mid shift of our dinner. Then first server took our orders and was nice. The second waitress brought us the food, was attentive and upbeat. The restaurant does have dirty vents and a missing vent in the ceiling.

    A hole in the wall but Food was really good. Service wasn't that great but will Definitely come back. Make sure try this spot in West Point.

    The Red Crab at the Blue Crab!

    What reads on the menu like an unassuming little fish sandwich, the cod sandwich came out beyond fascinating with incredibly delicious toppings. Reminiscent of the Caribbean it came topped with mango. Everything was delicious! Service was wonderful, as usual, and there is an adorable display with a blow up red Crab "sitting" on a bench.

    Carrot cake! BEST key lime pie I have ever had!

    Food is always Great! Service is wonderful. Love the window seat . Drove to West Point just to dine at our favorite restaurant

    Oysters Benedict - fantastic
    Elizabeth F.

    What a lucky stop we made for lunch on our way home from the rivah! We decided to see if there was something other than fast food in West Point to stop for a bite to eat and we found the Blue Crab. Cute place serving a very nice brunch! This place was hopping (around Sunday noon), but we were warmly greeted and seated promptly. It did not take long for DH and me to decide what we wanted to eat. I had the oysters benedict and DH had the oyster po' boy and we decided to share an order of fried pickles. Pickles came out pretty quickly and were freshly made. They had a nice crunch and we enjoyed them as a warm up the main event. DH's po' boy sandwich was beautiful and came with a side of house made chips. He loved it. My oysters benedict was delicious. Each muffin had a very large oyster, hand breaded and fried to perfection. It was a nice contrast to the creamy hollandaise. DH and I were very pleased that their oysters were obviously not Sysco out of a bag. Service was friendly and helpful. We look forward to coming back.

    Shrimp Scampi but with chicken!
    Betty C.

    2nd review from me but this dinner tonight was AMAZING. We went on a Wednesday which is pasta night. The special was a shrimp scampi type pasta. I asked to have mine made with grilled chicken which was not a problem at all. It was so so good. And don't forget about dessert, they are all delish!

    Spectacular! I have been anxiously awaiting for Cravings to open…read more TIP: Go ASAP. They can and have been know to sell out fast. They are active on Instagram and Facebook. They opened up about a month or so ago. I live about 80 min away from Cape Charles. So I generally I plan a day trip to visit. My kiddos and I had a Monday trip this week. I was worried they may not be open since sometimes Monday's are a day businesses close to recover from the summer weekend rush. But, they were open! When we arrived we headed straight back to where they are located inside of Table & Tonic.... Super cute store by the way. They still had a pretty good selection around 12:30pm. We picked up some sandwiches, chips, pasta salad, soda and their homemade desserts. They have a whole self checkout system set up. You bag it, and pay for it all on your own. They have plastic wear and condiment packets if needed. The male there (assuming owner) was great. He was attentive and helped a customer chose their sandwich... which ended up being the chicken salad. The sandwiches were fantastic! Fresh and tasty! My favorite was The Virginia. It was like a chicken Caesar salad on focaccia. The bread was perfect, not hard at all. My children raves about the chicken salad sandwich. Their two pasta salad options are a perfect accompaniment to the sandwiches. One is a creamy base and the other is more of an oil and vinegar type of base. Both were absolutely delicious! The salads looked fresh and the homemade desserts were a sweet bonus to everything. I do wish there is lighter options, as tthey do not weigh so heavy on the stomach for the beach. Other than that everything is wonderful and keep up the great work! You will go places for sure!

This is Around the Table. A family owned restaurant where everyone who walks in becomes family. I came in to get food to go after church which is probably their busiest day. The dining room was full of families eating after church or just enjoying a Sunday together. reservations are suggested. I went to the register and was met by one of the owners Ms Kelly with a warm smile. She made suggestions to my daughter and I and quickly got our orders in. They have everything from pork chops to catfish. From Mac and cheese to corn pudding and cabbage. And talk about Homemade desserts! Whew. While we waited for our food and we could watch the football game that was on the tv. We also met the other owner Ms Amie! They have an event space in the space next door and they were hosting a birthday party and catering the entire event. Every staff member I came in contact with had A1 customer service and with a smile. Our food was ready pretty fast and when it came up they went thru our whole bag with us to show our pipping hot order was correct. We barely made it to the car before we had sleeves rolled up and forks in. I highly suggest the Catfish with Cabbage, Yams and Corn Pudding. My daughter had cabbage and Mac and cheese and we shared some pound cake that was perfection. If you need a good home cooked meal and wanna feel the warmth of family I recommend you hurry to Around the table.
