    Jumbo Lump Crab Cake Sandwich
    Ro R.

    Omg. Why didn't I know about this place last year? Not even sure if this place existed but this is the type of crabcake that I like. Don't tell me lump crabcake when it's not - this place was actually lump. I hate ordering crabcake for this reason and I went to Matt's yesterday and it was beyond disappointing and not lump. I am in love with their crabcake. I tried it with tartar and cocktail - both great. I am going to come back for other stuff. Best crabcake I had since the other crabcake that I had in NY that was only available the time I went to a restaurant, but unfortunately, rotating menu, but this place is the traditional crabcake. Seriously, I LOVE THIS so much. So damn good. I want to move here just for this damn crabcake.

    This place is AMAZING....The 2 star reviews on here must not have taste buds(or they let food sit before eating it). We ordered the lobster roll plater and the crab cake sandwich, both were top tier. We've had lobster rolls from the best spots in New England and this rivaled the very best. Marylander here and I loved the crab cake sandwich, too. Fries were great typical beach fries (best with vinegar and j.o). Coleslaw was crispy and delicious. Crab hush puppies were great, but I'm not a huge hush puppy person so I would only get them as a side to the lobster roll or crab cake sandwich. We will certainly be back here anytime we are at the beach. Shoot we might be going back for a quick snack later today if they aren't sold out!

    Food was delicious. The service was great. Just make sure you check your order because we ordered a lot and one was forgotten but we caught it and he quickly got it made. The place was in a gas station lot. Which was great because we had no problem finding it.

    Got a crab cake sandwich, and it was delicious. Food truck service, decently fast service. They have a picnic table for seating.

    This little food truck makes one of the best crabcakes ever, fresh handcut fries, great hush puppies, and shrimp. Everything is good and very fresh. The service was friendly and energetic. As far as ambiance, it's a food truck. Looking forward to them having a restaurant some day soon! EXCELLENT! Went back for lunch Lobster Roll, Crabcake, Fried Shrimp and slaw. All the food groups! There were people in line, including a couple who drove 3 hours just for lunch.

    Wild fried shrimp, Lobster roll platter, Crab cake sandwhich, Hush crabbies.

    Not a fan of the fries or hush puppies. Crab cake was mediocre. It seemed like the crab cake was fried not broiled.

    My crab cake was insane! Lump-crab on a brioche bun. The tartar sauce was so nice! Sorry no pic I devoured it!

    Another bang up find! This place is the real deal. Get there early and HUNGRY! All the staff were…read morecool and friendly. The decor was simple and not over the top "oceany" as some tourist traps. I saw they were inland which I like. I try to avoid the neon wharf spots and I was so happy. I sat at the bar, which was full of welcoming locals and a tired traveling clown (me). The gravelly-voiced owner of I thing third generation paused a few times between sending out trays of steaming crab. He was a perfect blend of warm-hearted welcoming and hard-bitten tyrant. I went for the all you can eat feast at $69 (prices always subject to change) which comes with fries, hush puppies and coleslaw. I was assured the sizes were running large and it wasn't just a line. I was happy with the mediums. All I can say is they do crab RIGHT here. Fresh steamed ONCE so the meat is incredibly moist and succulent. And they just kept coming in trays of four. I ended up having a dozen which made it a deal at $69 compared at the price of a dozen à la carte. But who cares?!? They are blue crabs steaming and fresh and it was a feast. Side dish commentary: the fries are excellent. None of this cardboard tasting shoestrings. They were thick cut with skin on! The hush puppies classically tasty and the Cole slaw was not over dressed. Bonus!!! I can't wait to go back and try the she-crab soup and the bread pudding (highly recommend by my neighbor at the bar who is a local restaurateur).

We ordered mussels for the appetizer which was absolutely delicious! We each got an adult beverage and the table ordered a brick oven chicken, fish tacos, grilled salmon, and the crab cake sandwich.

He finished his entire brick oven chicken and proceeded to tell us how that was the best meal he had in a while all night! Excellent, will be back to this quaint and well located restaurant!

Once I saw shrimp and grits on the menu, I immediately zeroed in on that. I love shrimp and grits going back to my Winchester days. Succulent shrimp, cheesy grits, and a nice porky meat to give it extra character. Here they use chorizo. But ham or bacon are good options as well. I also like that they give you eight big pieces of shrimp. Not like other restaurants that only give you two or four prawns and call it a day. The crab bisque is good too. A tasty soup that works well this time of year. Even though it was cold the first go around, the second one tasted hot and fresh. Of course it would taste good. The Delmarva region is abundant in crabs. Just as I would expect a clam chowder to taste great in New England or Manhattan. One thing to nitpick, it should come with oyster crackers, not saltines. They work better when it comes to a bisque or a chowder. Besides that, I have little to complain about.

Edit: so, I also ordered a Pinoy Bento box, that's for my dinner tonight...but I tried the Pancit, the Lumpia and the pork...everything was decent enough to give this a second star...but I'm still disappointed with the mac and cheese and the kielbasa sandwich...I cut the Kielbasa in half myself and it was still a ton of bread on each side...you could at least do 1.5 links on there...the Bento box saved it from being a 1 star and complete disappointment... Edit #2: UGH...tried the Biko later...amazing dessert, legit 5-star level...since this is a BBQ truck, I'm rating based on the main dishes...dessert can't save a dry mac and a one-link sandwich that's mostly bread...
