Customers have consistently reported getting "heavy, healthy, and great-tasting crabs" from the restaurant's Carroll Island location.

While crabs from the Carroll Island location have received consistent praise, some customers have had issues with the Philadelphia location, mentioning that the crabs there have had a slight odor and aftertaste, with some orders containing mostly empty shells.

However, after reaching out, Captain Jim offered a replacement dozen crabs, which were reported to be "1000% better," steamed and seasoned perfectly.
Overall, Capt. Jim's Crabs remains a popular destination for crab lovers.
