Lorraine's Seafood Restaurant

We had a wonderful time at this restaurant! The food was spectacular (I had broiled flounder, amd green beans), the waitress was very nice and attentive, and it was served in a reasonable amount of time. We will definitely be back on the next trip!

How can a seafood restaurant have the WORST crabcakes I have ever had? 18.95 and not even a side included. It was all filler, no seasoning and not a lump of crab to be seen. The special was a crabcake sandwich and a cup of soup for 25.50. After I ordered I realized it was the exact same price seperately. How is that a special? The creamy crab soup was watery, had 2 pieces of crab and barely lukewarm. No sense complaining because tourists on the ferry are in a rush to
eat and the food takes a while to come out. I hope the rest of the menu is better but I would try the shack down the street.

Only restaurant that is still open on the island. Fortunately, it is top notch. Great seafood and daily specials. Enjoyed it very much.

Ordered the crab cake sandwich. Shared crab dip with the table. It was all that you could ask for. It was simply that - a crab cake sandwich with no filler. It came on a bun with a side of chips. I did add some tartar sauce to the sandwich. I also order the chocolate Smith Island cake ($6.50). Server was great and attentive. The atmosphere was lively. It does get packed fast. Went to lunch around 11/11:15 am. If waiting for a table, expect to wait 15-20 minutes.

If you're on Tangier you have to get crab in some form. My wife had a crab soup and I enjoyed a hot crab dip. Both dishes were amazing! They also managed to produce a tasty sweet potato fry with a crispy exterior.

We flew to the island in February and Lorraine's was a short walk for us. It was awesome they were open and the food and staff were great and friendly. We hope to get back in the warmer weather sometime. Very cool place.

Cool spot in Tangier VA that u can only visit by boat or the daily ferry run from Onancock, Crisfield and somewhere on the western shore, great crabcakes and soft crab sandwiches

Parking: There is no parking here because the restaurants is on an island accessible only by boat or ferry than just a short walk

Our group waited quite a long time for our food. Because we traveled to visit the island with a tour group, we lost a lot of time due to the wait. The soft shell crab was cooked well, but it was served on thin, white bread with nothing else- no lettuce, tomato, etc.-not what we expected for $25.

my friend and i visited tangier a few days ago, and one of my ‘musts’ for the trip was trying some of the famed local seafood. we only had a few hours in the island and by the time we got round to having lunch, our boat was leaving in 30min. we explained this to our server, who kindly assured us that our food would come out in a timely fashion. we got the soft shell crab platter and the Scott’s crabby fries. they came out quickly, along with to-go boxes for whatever we didn’t have time to finish. we started with the crabs, and they were EXCELLENT! fried to perfection, flavorful, so crispy and tasty! we ended up taking the fries with to snack on during the boat ride back and those were delicious as well! I’m craving both all over again back at home. I really appreciate our waitress being so understanding and friendly, and serving us so promptly. the restaurant was also extremely comfortable after a long, humid afternoon outdoors, with a nice atmosphere (not too loud, not too bright, etc). thank you for a lovely abd delicious end to our day on the island!

Enjoyed a crab cake platter with a very delicious cup of cream of crab soup. Friendly service. Quaint atmosphere. Golf cart tours wait outside, which is very convenient. We took a tour after our lunch to explore the island.
