Food was good. Server was friendly, courteous and helpful. Fun place - Good ambiance.

We went yesterday, I had the scallops paying $6 dollars extra to have them broiled well they were delivered to me not broiled and salted and peppered so bad it was just nasty, made my mouth burn. Hubs ordered a pound of steamed shrimp that had no seasoning on it at all, a plate of French fries that were stale and a side salad that was warm and contained a mountain of croutons 3 tiny tomatoes and wilted lettuce. Never going back Yuck read more

You'll find me here every Monday night for their wing special. This a true locals place. Good food, friendly service. Wings are crispy and saucy. Sometimes I wish they had more flavors, but you can't beat the price anywhere around. read more

The staff were super friendly. The seafood was not fresh. The crab dip was not good. It was mushy. I got the stuffed shrimp. It was 3 shrimp in a bowl of mush. My spouse had the seafood platter fried. It was over cooked and not fresh. Go down to the Gulf and try that seafood. Completely different. read more

Very affordable food here - shocking actually for steaks. We typically pay twice the menu price for steaks back home in Texas. But I came for seafood because we're close to the coast. First the basics: The restaurant was charming. Off the beaten road, there was plenty of space to move and it felt clean and not over decorated inside. Staff were friendly. Our table ordered the crab dip. It was served with garlic bread slices. The dip was a little over salted and the bread should have been toasted more to offset the softness of the dip. For my main I ordered the crab imperial stuffed flounder with coleslaw and hush puppies. Again, the crab was over salted but the flounder was perfect. The coleslaw had excellent flavor and a lot of sauce, which was nice for dipping the hush puppies. The serving portion of the hush puppies was actually an appetizer size. I think the restaurant could cut that quantity in half and it would be sufficient. Overall it was a good relaxed dining experience with friends. read more

We came back here a couple weeks ago just to try it because my last couple experiences were not good. We got the crab legs and shrimp. Meal thing. The shrimp are absolutely terrible like barely any seasoning on them. They were cold crab legs were like old and overcooked couldn't even get the meat out of them.The crab soup I wouldn't even say it was crab soup. It was more like vegetable soup. There was like no crab in it didn't have much flavor was not worth $140 tab go to Rube's down the street is much better. read more

Pleasant service, fun, interesting atmosphere, but the seafood was just meh. I didn't get the crab special but the cakes were dry, lots of filler, overdone. read more

Great food, no waiting, goes the extra mile. Fresh ingredients and takes the time to do it right. Good service. Will be back.

Sorry to say it, but our recent visit here was very disappointing. Service was terrible; dinners were served to only a few of our party while others had to wait for their meals. Food was at best average. Next time I visit the Gettysburg area, I'll try Rube's Crab Shack instead. read more

This is the third time we've been to this crab house. We always get the AUCE special. Today it was $65 per person. Everything was cooked perfectly, the staff is so friendly and the restaurant is super nice, clean with a pleasant atmosphere. You can eat inside or outside. It's a very casual place. If you love crabs and crab legs this is the place to go! read more

Dont waste your time and money! So, I wanted to get together with my family and we met at this restaurant. The food was a joke. The crab legs were barely warm. The calamari was way over fried. We each ordered the broiled seafood platter. If there was any crab meat, it was hard to detect. The waitress forgot to bring our sides. There was a piece of trash in my salad. The waitress was MIA a lot. Like I said, dont waste your time or money. read more

Delicious seafood. Fun place to go and gab with my gals. Great service. Comfortable atmosphere. Seating inside or outside.

Food was disappointing-average crab cake for the price. Soup was flavorful but made from a cream (?) base. I had a soft shell that was way over fried. The service was excellent however & think it would be a fun place to go for steamed crabs, shrimp or crab legs...keep it simple! read more

Ser ice was good, waitresses are friendly. Wasn't sure which door was the entrance and there wasn't a hostess stand. Love the outdoor seating, so awesome on a nice day. Appreciated the outdoor games (Connect 4), it kept my daughter entertained while waiting for the food. Food was really good. It's about 4 miles from us, so very convenient. read more

Good food got crab legs first time second time got a special both were good. Service was good

Went there at 4:30 on Thursday evening and had cream of crab soup (very little crab meat}. My wife had stuffed shrimp with very poor crab meat and mushy shrimp. It took over 35 minutes for food to be served, We left at 5:30 and we were the only other customers there, (which should have been a tell tail sign). This was the 4th time we have been there, the worst of all and will unfortunately be the last. read more

Food was ok.....a bit pricey for crabs in Maryland of all places! Service....meh. Ambiance was a bit dated but cozy for a crab shack.

Ordered all you can eat crab legs and crab cakes. The crab cakes were delicious. One was fried and one was broiled. Both had little filler and was fresh. The all you can eat crab legs came with fried chicken, steamed shrimp, hush puppies and soup. Concentrated the legs and they were perfectly seasoned and cooked. Not too many places prepare them with old bay and that's how this place does it. They were sizable and cooked perfectly. Wait staff was attentive and nice. Definitely going back with the entire family. Call ahead, this place gets packed. Plus they had live music outside. read more

Hhhmmmmmmmm I was disappointed. We came for our class training party as a party of about 25. Most of us ordered the National Fire Academy special, any steak and any seafood for $25.99 instead of $30.99. Most of us ordered the porter house steak and the snow crab legs with two sides as part of the deal. 16oz porter house steak- BROILED. Again. It is BROILED. So gross!!! Wish my other classmate that rEad the description told me that's why he didn't oRder it.. it looked BOiLED lol 4 clusters of the snow crab legs- what a deal!!!! It was cold and old bay seasoning all over it with a side of butter. It was all over cooked. All the meAt was shrunk, dry and rubbery where the legs wouldn't even crack. Hush puppies- delicious!!!!!!!!! Cole slaw- okay. Normal. My classmate stated his crab cream soup was delicious. I wish ordered that with the hush puppies. The crab cakes are made from crab lumped meat chunks, the waitress explained. It sounded like it was canned crab meat. I was pretty hYped and excited because the instructor hyped it up. I wonder if the legs were over cooked because of the amount of NFA groups that were there, that's why the quality was bad. We got a gReat deal but I didn't enjoy the deal. So sad. read more

Let me begin by saying my dining experience started off well. My entire academy class elected to choose this place as our "class dinner" before we all parted ways and went home to our respective departments. I understand that when a table of our size is being served there should be a small allowance for human error. I ordered the Fire Academy Special, which is a Steak cooked to your liking and a generous portion of crab legs for $35.95 plus tax. It was brought out on 2 different servings and the crab legs were the first to come out. The crab legs were slightly overcooked, but nothing major. Still good flavor and still palatable, I enjoyed them and had no problems other than the crab meat sticking to the shell and not having anything supplied to crack them open. The steak came out second and when I received it, the steak looked good from the outside. When I cut into the steak it was noticeably overcooked, I ordered the steak as "rare", instead I received what was more closely a medium well to well done steak. I pushed my steak to the side and waited for our waitress to return. She passed by a couple of times but never stopped to check where I was and I tried to catch her attention, but she never acknowledged me. The ONLY time I was able to speak to her was when she brought the bill out. She asked if I wanted a box, I was relatively frustrated at this time, I told her "no, I'd like it taken off of my bill". She asked what the problem was and I told her it was very overcooked and I had been trying to get her attention for well over 20 minutes prior. She seemed annoyed by my request and she told me she would "see what she can do". Upon her return she informed me that all "late meals" were $35.95 regardless, upon seeing my expression she said to hold on and disappeared again. She returned and told me the best they could do was take $5.00 off the bill. Yes, you read that right. Reduce my bill by $5.00 for the 16 ounce porterhouse that I tried ONE bite of before pushing it away. After I paid my bill for a steak that I didn't get to enjoy she made it a point to tell me "I'm sorry that YOU weren't happy with your steak." With the only thing entering my mind being frustration for the lack of accountability for a steak THEY drastically overcooked and felt justified in only reducing a bill $5.00. They couldn't even be bothered to consider offering to remake the steak for me (which I would have gladly accepted). Pictures are included for your own assessments, but I can promise that I will never return for the poor customer service following a simple complaint. I will make sure to share me experience with EVERY fireman that I know who will attend the National Fire Academy. I'm a reasonable person, the fact that I am even writing this review should reflect on my extreme dissatisfaction, a fair bill reduction or remaking the steak would've avoided all of this. read more

Outstanding food selection and service. Very attentive personnel and reasonable prices. 5 stars

I never knew this place existed. It the perfect location for a nice restaurant. Nice view the wait staff was very friendly. The steak was great. My wife got something with shrimp in it. She's not here or I would ask her what it was. But either way I don't think you could go wrong with anything you get here. I can't wait to go back. read more

Went with a big group and had a pound of crab legs. They were small, not flavored and the butter was cold. Not much to see of the atmosphere. There were some large groups there of 15-20 and they were accommodated. The service was fast but the food just was not good to me. read more

A roadhouse, but with crabs and other seafood. Complete with wood floors and heavy paper on the tables, plus everyone is slamming away with their crab mallets and making an amazingly delicious mess. I'm not a fan of crabs (they look like huge sea bugs) but I'm fine with them if someone else is taking them out of the shell. So I went with the crab cakes. They didn't take long before they were brought to my table and I could dig in. Nearly all crab with very little breading, it was held together pretty well. It didn't need any of the tartar sauce that came with it, but a little lemon squeeze did well. Not much for beers here. Lots of the macro brews, but my Blue Moon did come with the usual orange wedge so that's okay. Service is friendly and rather casual. There's nothing wrong with that. read more

There's seafood restaurants and then there's crab fests. This is the place for the latter. You will not reject going for the All-You-Can-Eat Crab. Whole crab, crab legs, crab cakes, and sides. It is overwhelming yet delicious all at the same time. Visiting extended family for the holidays, I am not too familiar with the area but I will say it seems a bit off the beaten path. But trust me when I say that path is worth adding to your route. The place must hold 100+ people and there is outdoor seating (with a full bar as well). It's like a giant log cabin and seafood house packed into one space. Then you have a top notch team willing to make your every request happen. More crab? Got it. More hot butter? Here it is. More drinks or change in order? No problem. Needless to say, I was impressed. Though others at the table went for the crab, I had to sample the rest. The Seafood Platter was the perfect option as it had fish, crab cake, fries, coleslaw and more. I wish I could've ate more, but if I had I would have lacked the strength to visit other family. I look forward to another holiday and another visit here. I know they will be around for a long, long time. read more

Waitress was nice. Went for AYCE, they ran out of crabs before they even brought food out. They proceeded to charge same price for the AYCE when they didn't even have the crabs that was included in that price. Food was inconsistent- shrimp were tough, and snow crab legs were inconsistent with being warm and cold when brought out. Cream of crab, should have been cream with no crab. Sons fries had no seasoning. Waste of money and my time. Should have went to RUBES that is about 2 mins away. Completely don't remember having this bad of an experience at a restaurant, super disappointed in this trip and waste of my money. read more

This has been a place I visit every time I visit family in PA. I am from AA County Maryland, and understand that it will not be like the best crab houses in Annapolis, but still found it decent and reasonably priced for all you can eat. This last time though my wife, sins, and parents went and it was bot great. My wife and I had the all you can eat crabs. They were light, small, twoce or thrice cooked/boiled. You could tell they were ild and reheated. The crab meat was mush...like a paste. For 70 dollars a person you expert more. The snow crabs were not bad , and it came with a floury cream of crab soup, dried chicken , and a pedestrian side salad. My son had a burger , not bad - and the other had fried shrimp....it was decent. They split a dozen expensive crabs - again, ok, but to good. They were better than the all you can eat, but not by much. We also made the mistake of sitting outside and the fans were not real strong and the flies were out of hand. All in fall a very expensive substandard dinner. As much good times Inhave had with fsniky here, I think it as my last time. read more

Ayce crabs... not worth coming to this resturant. 1st time here and will not come back. First two trays of hard shell crabs were cold and old. The meat was rubbery and didnt not come out of the shell easy. Had to ask for fresh hot crabs. So we waited, which is totally ok. The next two trays were fresh and hot. Much better, til the last tray you tell they were just reheated, they were just as bad as the first, just warm. The waitess ignored us at times as she was more attentive to the table next to us (she knew them). She refilled my husbands drink when asked however mine was never refilled. The only thing I would want to have again there was the 5 spiced shrimp I got with the order. read more

Recently moved to PA from Eastern Long Island (New York) which is renowned for its seafood, delivered fresh to the restaurants from the boats of local fisherman. A chance stumbling upon Dave and Jane's Crabhouse Restaurant was like "winning a jackpot and finding the pearl in the oyster". The joint was jumping with many people out for an evening of good company, great conversations and truly DELICIOUS FOOD. From the extremely friendly bartenders, super efficient waitstaff (who knew the menu and it's ingredients very well) and to a chance encounter with a gentleman named Jerome - who welcomed my family to PA and truly made us feel at home. Thank you, thank you, thank you - Bernardine P.S. We will be back real soon!!! read more

Our first time back in many years due to lackluster history. Got in and seated within minutes, which was the best part of our evening. I ordered the seafood platter, which consisted of fried shrimp, crab cake, filet of fish, scallops, and choice of clams or oysters (I ordered clams), hubby got an 8 oz filet with steamed shrimp, cluster of crab legs and cream of crab soup. My platter was over fried and nothing was good or had flavor. Blah at best. Hubby's order was a tad better as he said steak was tasty, the cream of crab was mediocre and more pudding like consistency than a soup. The steamed shrimp was as average, no seasoning. Our waitress checked in on us too early to have tasted anything and then never returned to check in or refill drinks. read more

Grateful for the staff being so accommodating for fitting in our party of 25 with only a 20minute advance notification. My family and I were in the area following my sister's soccer game and decided to stop in for a family dinner. Granted the restaurant wasn't full, but still had a great deal of clients. Many people in our party ordered steaks and mostly every plate was empty at the end. Those of us who opted for the crabs, shrimp and crab legs were satisfied with the flavor and assortment. However, the broiled snow crab legs were cold when served which was a bit disappointing. The fries were delicious as was the hush puppies and even the pizza was a hit with the kids. Dessert was also a treat! The chocolate fudge cake was surprisingly good and not overwhelmingly sweet! The fresh vanilla ice cream scoops were a great end to our meal. The staff was super friendly and accommodating, they seemed to have a great system in place by giving us pitchers of soda and setting up the table with the sides before the food came. Thanks ladies! read more

Sweet service for my disabled elderly father in law. All the servers are genuine and caring. I love this place! Blue moon on tap and served with the traditional orange slice. The hush puppies are well worth the $3- so many we were impressed and happy! Onion rings and fries are yum and they will serve you malt vinegar, clarified butter, and old bay on the side! The blue crabs are all we get here. They are so good, classic, and delicious. Great experience!!! read more

This is my FAVORITE place. We make it a point to go at least once each summer, but often once more. For about $50/person you get all you can eat soup, salad, hush puppies, fried chicken, steamed shrimp, hardshell crabs and crab legs. They bring it to you on trays, you don't even have to get up. The food is always fresh and hot. It's the absolute best place. read more
