Ragin' Reef offers a variety of seafood dishes, including crab cakes, fish tacos, mussels, and fish and chips, all at great prices. Their Cream of Crab soup is a standout, and their mussels are popular with many diners. The restaurant features excellent service and a welcoming atmosphere, making it a great spot for seafood lovers. Guests praise the fried calamari appetizer, fresh raw oysters, and flavorful, perfectly cooked dishes like tortilla and poblano flounder and stuffed cod when available. The crab cakes are considered some of the best in Maryland, with big pieces of crab and minimal filler. Hush puppies are a nice side, and the portions generally satisfy hungry diners. The bar and restaurant are cozy, and the staff, including the bartender Noah, are highly appreciated for their friendliness and helpfulness. Recently, the menu remains largely unchanged, with many dishes like crab cakes, Tortilla Poblano crusted Mahi, grilled scallops, and fish and chips earning praise. The fish and chips are crispy, perfectly seasoned, and piping hot, with the tartar sauce also receiving high marks. The restaurant's expansion has added more tables, making it easier to get seated. Visitors often enjoy the friendly, chill atmosphere and reasonably priced meals. Overall, Ragin' Reef is known for its delicious food, friendly service, and enjoyable environment, making it a favorite spot for regulars and newcomers alike.
