The Crab Shack is a restaurant located on Route 50, near the Chesapeake Bay's best crabbing areas. They are known for their expert steaming of crabs, ensuring no claw meat sticks to the claw and body meat never sticks to the shell. The crabs are described as big and juicy, with fair prices. Customers often mention that the prices are great, and they are willing to drive extra miles to save money, sometimes saving over $100. The restaurant offers good-sized #1 crabs and a half bushel of number two male crabs for affordable prices, making it a popular choice for takeout. The jumbo lump crab cakes are highly praised, being called the "best" and "excellent" with no fillers. They also sell jumbo lump crab meat, soft shell crabs, crab seasoning, and soups. Visitors recommend bringing a small cooler for transportation. Many customers highlight that the crabs are delicious and affordable, with some stating they might have had some of the best crabs they’ve ever had. Recent reviews confirm that the crabs are well-seasoned, meaty, and reasonably priced, making this location highly recommended for steamed Maryland crabs. Customers also appreciate the friendly staff who assist with loading crabs into their cars. One guest noted that the crabs from the Choptank River were absolutely delicious, full, and packed with flavor, making the experience worthwhile. The restaurant is highly praised, with customers expressing a desire to return.
