“Best crab house in southern Maryland. No mixed crabs all #1’s.“

“I don’t know why this didn’t post before but I’ll say it again. We (myself and two ladies) went and enjoyed drinks and they had a delicious lunch whereas I had hard crabs. When we first arrived crabs were not available and I was disappointed. I believe the server must have communicated that to the chef and when the crabs arrived he immediately cooked them for me. They were amazing as was all the food and drinks. I love this location for food, drinks and the amazing views.“

“For several years, we have been purchasing our Maryland Blue Crabs from Mel's. Despite traveling from Old Town Alexandria, we can confidently say that Mel's offers the finest crabs we have ever tasted. We consider them to be the best in the country, deserving of a five-star-plus rating. Brandon consistently provides exceptional customer service during each of our visits. We wholeheartedly recommend Mel's whenever you are in search of fresh crabs, whether hard or soft shells.😋🥰“

“Everyone's food was really great, delicious fish and shellfish dishes. The crab cake sandwich had very generous portions, and I wish it had been a little more flavorful. The atmosphere was very charming and homey, pretty family friendly. There was a porch with great views of the water and a comfortable breeze.“

“This place is a gem! Nestled right on the water, it offers delicious food and exceptional service. Despite never knowing it existed in the area, we decided to give it a try, and we were thoroughly impressed. Everyone at the restaurant with me raved about the food, and even though there was only one server when we arrived, the service was fantastic. Some items were unavailable which was a not ideal but nonetheless what we order was delicious.
Everyone there including the patrons were really friendly overall we enjoyed our experience and definitely would recommend this place.“
