    2 snow crab clusters
    Nakia L.

    I've been a customer of this location for almost 20yrs. Even supported them several times during the pandemic. Tonight was the first time receiving terrible service. I was mid order when the man helping me interrupted me to tell me when to expect my order. When I mentioned I wasn't finished he brushed me off. I also believe I was overcharged. $59 for 2 clusters is a bit high. Because of his energy, I didn't feel comfortable talking to him about it but I will call for the manager in the morning.

    Dozen medium male crabs $63

    I ordered a dozen male crabs over the phone and they said it would be ready in 25 minutes. When I arrived 25 minutes later, my steamed crabs were ready. Took them home to eat and they were all delicious! No sauce needed; Plenty of seasoning on the crabs. They have crab cakes you can take home and pop it in the oven yourself.

    If you're going to the Crab Galley for comfortable seating and an ambiance, keep on driving. But if you're looking for a restaurant with good, fresh, local seafood with plenty of variety that you can take home and cook yourself or have them prepare it for you. My family and I have been to the crab galley for all of our seafood needs & they haven't disappointed.

    1 lbs. of shrimp(FRESH & DELICIOUS)
    Cory M.

    This place never disappoints at all...the crabs, and shrimp are ALWAYS, hot, fresh and steamed to perfection....this is definitely my go to spot for sure...the service is always polite, fun and very welcoming in all ways...but, the food is well worth the drive no matter how far you're coming from...

    Fried calamari (one size) & small fried clams
    Christine M.

    Crab Galley is a hidden gem that a frequent for crab legs, calm strips, calamari and their fish sandwiches. They have one size for their calamari and clam strips which are more than enough to share with you and one other. I would recommend calling ahead as they cook everything to order and unless you're out running errands in the area, the wait can get to you. There's space to wait in the restaurant but it's standing room only and it would be better to just stay in your car after you order. They do sell frozen seafood by the pound if interested. The staff are very friendly and accommodated with helping us select a fish option for dinner the other night. Although a smaller restaurant, don't count them out.

    Decent but not the best. I think the service could have been friendlier. Otherwise it's a typical spot with a typical vibe.

    It's been a long time since I reviewed this place. I love the crab cheesesteak sub. It's actually…read morethe only thing I get from here. My sandwich usually comes with pure crabmeat, no fillers, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, grilled onions. This sandwich is filling. If you pay cash the sandwich is $24. If you use a credit card it is a little over $25. Just putting that out there. Every bit counts. This is a carryout only. I usually call my order in for pick-up and it's ready upon my arrival. If you order in person they will bring your order to your vehicle when ready. They don't seem to be up to date with the online ordering yet. If you love crabcakes you will definitely love the the crab cheesesteak sub. It's delicious I tell you.

    A friend who lives in the vicinity kept hooting and hollering about the Crabmeat Cheesesteak at…read moreCasey's. He's one of my favorite foodies so I trust his opinion on the good, local eats! This time was no different. We decided to share the crabmeat cheesesteak and the lobster melt. Both were delicious. The crab cheesesteak was flavorful and filled with crab (not just that filler stuff). It's Maryland, come with it! My only ick was the over salty flavor that lingered after each bite. Half of the sandwich was more than enough for that reason. Maybe tone down the old bay?! The lobster melt was a yummy follow-up. It was juicy and buttery, and the squeeze of a lemon wedge was a chef's kiss accoutrement. I'd definitely go here again when I'm in the area! Service was friendly; we ordered to-go. I honestly do not remember anything re: seating/tables. We were too busy snapping silly photos with the giant, colorful crab outside lol

I would try other rolls bit a majority of them have avocado in them and I have an avocado allergy. Either way I find ways to get my moneys worth!

I was a first timer and she's been once before. Given the name, I figured it was a seafood restaurant. Although some seafood is on the menu, Pier 99 is primarily a Sushi/Asian food restaurant. I think a name change should be in order.. Lol! I literally had to switch up my taste buds to partake in some sushi! I ordered a seafood boil because I couldn't switch them up fast enough while she ordered sushi. I actually love the concept because so many people aren't sushi fans but most folks get down with seafood! The food was actually good and they pulled off both cuisines effortlessly! My margarita was as good as any chain Mexican restaurant, so that was additional plus given the Mexican holiday. The interior is on the smaller side, however, they offer booth seating and it has a decent size bar. If I lived in the Upper Marlboro/Bowie area like I used to, I'd come here often but since I don't, I'll occasionally stop in when I'm in the area! Good job Pier 99!
