A little gem of a place! Small menu and run by super friendly Robin. The cream of crab soup is amazing and so is the creamy mustard dipping sauce. So glad we found it and we'll definitely be back!!
Best crab soup and crab cake I ever had. Friendly service. Would highly recommend
Went with my wife for a date night, what a wonderful spot. The food was great. Robin was really nice, only wished we had known before about the pre-order for a dozen blue crabs ahead of time. Next time we'll try that!
I moved here four years ago from Maryland and cannot believe I am now just visiting this gem! Robin goes above and beyond to treat her guests well...even calling me a day prior to confirm my gluten-free request and prepping gluten-free entrees prior to my arrival. They do not skimp on the crab meat either. Everything was excellent and I plan on returning any time I need an Old Bay fix!
Robin, the owner, is amazing and accommodating! Staff is great, too!Crab cakes are the best you'll EVER have!
Excellent food and service. The cream crab cake soup was the best I've ever had, full of crab. The crab cakes were delicious. Prices were fair and service great. No ambiance but that did not detract from an excellent meal. Highly recommend.
Great food and service! Friendly owner and staff! Crab cake sandwich was delicious!
We loved it! The “Homesick” Crab soup was the best I have ever eaten! That's saying something since we are from Maryland & live on the water in Delaware! We shall return with friends!
As a born and raised Marylander this restaurant was fabulous. The soup, crab dip, crab cake slider and steam shrimp were excellent. Robin and Laura were so friendly and accommodating. I will definitely return again soon.
Great taste of Maryland away from home - and happy hour deals are awesome!! The maryland crab soup is legitimate and if you call ahead you can get hard shells - Laura the s waitress is a true Marylander and was fantastic!!!

The food is perfect! The crab cakes are some of the best and don’t get me started on the brisket sliders. Small place but amazing service, delicious food, and very clean.
I'm born and raised in MD I drove an hour to get authentic md crab cakes the flavor was fine $40.00 for two small meat ball size crab cakes wasoutrageous one of the most disapointing snacks I have ever had this is the place to go if you like being ripped off
A neighborhood gem in downtown Boca! I went to True for lunch and was not disappointed in the Crab Cake Sandwich. I topped it off with a piece of delicious Key Lime Pie. Robin, the owner, was very friendly and made us feel very comfortable. I am planning to return for the Blue Crab on Friday night. So glad I found this place.
My family loves crab soup and we eat it any time we travel south. We found this cute restaurant in Downtown Boca Raton and knew we had to call and reserve a table. Hands down, this is one of the best crab soups we've ever had, and the best food we've eaten over our stay! We also ordered the Farmhouse Chicken, Jumbo Shrimp, Crab Cake Platter, Crab Cake Sandwich, Spicy Maryland Crab Dip, and Brisket Dinner; all of these dishes are very much recommended! When they say they specialize in crab, they are 100% serious, so if you love crab, this is the place you MUST try!
Definitely authentic Maryland cuisine. The She soup was full of blue claw crab from first bite to last. The crab dip was also full of crab: I had the shrimp sooo good. I ordered lunch crab cake, when I say no fillers I mean it. The old bay mustard was just right. Great sides to choose from. Do not leave without Boston crepe pie and pumpkin cheesecake all homemade by owner Robin.
