I went to Captain White's Seafood today at the new location in Oxon Hill, MD, the customer service was great, the people are very helpful and patient too I might add. The crabs were great and I have found me a new spot to get me some crabs. The place is huge and set up nicely inside for a fish farmer's market. read more

Francisco was very helpful and Jamez was a doll :) i enjoy my experience everytime i come here . little to no wait !

New phone who dis? Captain White's officially moved to Maryland a few years ago and despite the changes it's still THE place to get Maryland blue crabs. My parents picked up a half bushel of mixed mediums to kick off the start of summer and they were bussin. Heavy, meaty, juicy, and delicious. Even though it was raining outside, the inside of our house was full of warmth and laughter as we picked crabs all night long. These are what memories are made of. read more

Captain white seafood city- I had not been here previously but off a neighbors recommendation decided to try it , my family and I went to get some steamed crabs,they had alot of them in varying sizes and genders, we settled with large and a few extra large both genders, then we had to go out back to pick up the crabs from the steaming station, while this was going on, I then went to the fish side and helped a relative pick out some shrimp and fish, the cashier grace/gracie was very helpful and let us know about our options and choices and made the experience seamless she told us we can even take the fish fillets to the butcher and they'll debone them and filet them which is a great service to offer especially if you are pressed for time! my only critique was it smelled very fishy in there and not in a fun way , and I've been to other full service seafood and fish markets and there wasn't one but others a good experience and I would go back. read more

I follow their social media accounts and saw they had a sale for Large male crabs for $35 per dozen before 11am on Sunday. I went at 8:30am. It was my first time ever going there. There were no lines when I arrived. The process was smooth and the customer service was great. I ordered the crabs inside. Then waited 35 mins for the crabs to be cooked and picked up at the white tent on the side of the building. The crabs were well seasoned and meaty. Most definitely worth the pricing. Next time I'll grab the XL male crabs. read more

Was better at the wharf! Customer service always is great but quality of seafood has dropped. Crabs are advertised bigger than true scale. Medium are small, large are medium. Prices used to be better but you can still find good deals here. Facility is excellent you can usually find what you are looking for or order ahead. Few minor corrections and this would be a certified place to go for everyone. read more

I don't know of a better spot to buy fresh seafood in the DMV than Captain White's! I've been a customer since they were located at the wharf, and while the new location isn't as convenient for me, I'm happy to drive out there to get fresh crabs, shrimp, and more! This past Sunday, we took advantage of the buy one dozen get one dozen free deal and bought two dozen extra large mail crabs for $99! They were absolutely fat, sweet, and delicious! We also bought 2 pounds of North Carolina wild caught shrimp and they were fantastic! Thank you Hank, you've got a great business going and I'll be sure to send all my friends your way! And a special shout out to Erick who helped us on Sunday, fantastic customer service! We will be back... Hopefully soon! read more

We received excellent service over all of our visits, the prices ar great, the fish and shrimp steames is always on point.

I finally came to the new location as I live closer to it now. I've only been once but will definitely come back in a weekday because the weekend and the parking can be a little tricky. Ok...not going to lie a lot tricky because the parking lot is not big and many people park on the side street or even across the street and walk over. I really enjoy the seafood atmosphere and the people who help you and cooks it for you. This time around I got some X-Large, jumbo shrimp, and 5lbs of crawfish. You get your number then have to go outside under a tent and wait until your number is called if you want it steamed. It didn't take long. As the line was really long but they got the light everyone rather quickly. Can't wait to go back and get more crawfish and some clams this time around! read more

A DC stable for seafood lovers and has been around for years! Ever since the redevelopment and gentrification of the DC wharf area, a lot of of the original seafood vendors have moved, gone out of business or no longer on the waterfront. . One of the well-known seafood vendors at the DC wharf relocated as well..... Captain White's Seafood. Although they don't have the nostalgic feel and vibe that was at the original location, the new location is really nice and a step up on their game! Located at a busy cross-section in the Oxon Hill 'HOOD..lol.... You will find their new location, hustling and bustling with crowds of seafood, lovers and patrons. The location is open, airy and loaded with great seafood finds and choices. From fresh fish, shrimp, scallops, oysters, clams, and many other seafood delicacies..... You will find them all here. And of course, the star of them all is the Maryland Blue Crabs. People normally travel miles for it and Captain White seafood delivers. The crab are always fresh, live and kicking, and their prices are competitive. My only gripe with this location is the wait time for having them cooked on site. Although the lines are long, they move fast, but if you're looking to get your seafood cooked on site, the wait can be long and in-upwards of a hour long wait or more! This is my only issue coming here. You can waste a lot of time waiting for crabs or seafood to be cooked and talk about waiting in the summer heat....who has time for that!? The only other option is to buy the pre-cooked crabs that are available or..... cook them at home. This is my only issue and what downgrades this place from getting 5 stars in my book! I actually ordered, as a test today, a dozen of the pre-cooked crabs because I did not want to wait that long. Surprisingly, they were actually really good and hefty-meaty. Other than the issue of long waits for having your food cooked on site, the seafood is fresh and the customer service is great. If you crave fresh fish go to Capt White's Seafood City. They have everything you can desire at great prices. Don't miss getting a snack while there - love the oysters --on a half shell. read more

Did our own seafood bake, yes I said, seafood bake at home, with Captain White's amazing seafood! Lobster tails, crab legs and shrimp!!! Added sausage, potatoes, fresh corn on the cob and customized the seasonings to our liking. Easy peasy, finger licking, lip smacking good!!! Even purchased some whiting fillets for Hubby. read more

My favorite spot for blue crabs. Frequent great deals, you can get them live or steamed, seasoned to your preference... Needless to say, I'm here often. Lines can get long so call ahead to order. Although they are indoors now, the same great service and good vibes carried over from the Wharf days. Being in NoVA, it's convenient to just be able to hop across the bridge for fresh seafood. read more

After my last review, the owner reached out and apologized for my experience. Just based on customer service alone, I knew I'd be back. It's Father's day so I woke up and got there really early. Even though it's a holiday, the store ran like a well oiled machine. This time, he gave me a 1/2 bushel of large males along with the Carolina Shrimp. The crabs are heavy and juicy and the shrimp were delicious. Just like that, I'm back in love with Captain White's . I'll be back down soon for my next half of bushel. read more

The Shrimp and Scallops very rubbery. I will never again. It doesn't taste like real Seafood.

Times have changed! It's been a while since we drove out to this location. WELL, upgrades galore! Phone in orders are well organized. I called at 8:15 and asked for a pickup of 9;00am. Arrived at 9:15am,to find a special pickup window that handles just call in orders The guy was so nice and explained the whole process to phone in and pay and pickup! I didn't even have to go through the indoor line. Now if I did want to just walk through, they have a nice indoor space where friendly staff are waiting to take orders. The CRABS! Yes, those bad boys were large! I got a bushel of exlarge males. They weee steamed with the correct amount of spice. They were fresh and meaty. Also they are packed in these nice plastic boxes to avoid leakage. read more

Please interact with this review whether good or not :) Thanxx The crabs were delicious on my previous pickup and I didn't get the chance to review. We are back today... a week later. I can't wait to get these bad boys home! Today was Election results day.... We needed a pick me up!! So this is our first option. The sun is out and surprisingly they weren't overly busy when we arrived for pick up. Plenty of parking available which isn't always the case. The store was clean as always. They are now offering whole fish options. See menu photos!! read more

I love Captain Whites seafood you can never go wrong whatever you get from Captain White

Lately, Captain White's has been my go-to spot when I'm craving crabs, and I haven't had a bad experience yet. Today I got a dozen steamed crabs with medium seasoning. I usually wait about 30-45 minutes (I've heard the wait can be longer) depending on the crowd, but since I arrived early, there weren't many people ahead of me and I only waited about 20 minutes. The crabs always taste fresh to me and are consistently seasoned well. Sometimes the medium males run a bit small, like they did today, but the flavor and quality keep me coming back. I meant to take a photo but I got straight to eating. So far, I've only ordered the crabs here, but I'm hoping to try their other seafood soon. For now, I'm sticking with what I know, and what I know is that Captain White's delivers every time. read more
