If Blue crabs are your jam, this is 100% a must try!…read more Lured by the intrigue of AYCE Maryland blue crabs, we made our trip on a hot August Saturday. Huge outdoor tents with picnic tables and a sandy floor really set the scene for us. We ordered a bucket of beer and dug in as soon as our trays of crab came out. Good, but not strong or spicy flavors and our server was Jane-on-the-spot to offer up another helping when she saw us getting low. The AYCE comes with corn & Hush Puppies, which are tasty and not too large, but I personally left behind the extra carbs in favor of more crab pickin'. The kids from a table near loved the sandy floor, occupying themselves building small sandcastles while their parents enjoyed a similar Crab heavy table - so great for families. Pro tip: Make sure to grab a table that's level - the sandy floor and hilly ground make for some tilting table-tops so beer placement must be careful!

Definitely a cool place to stop by for the summer. Good crabs and cold beer. Doesn't get any more…read moreMaryland than that.

Random adventure today. Drove through Cecilton Md to The Fish Whistle at the Grainery right along…read morethe Sassafras River. We sat outside, they had live music; "Rick Somers". He played hits from the 70's and early 80's. He was excellent. We ordered The Fish Whistle salad with Blackened Chicken. A cup of Cream of Crab soup and Chicken Quesadilla's. Wow! The food was very good, Rick Somers was Excellent, Our waitress was really good and helpful. There was no shortage of lump crab in the soup. Creamy, rich, just enough Old Bay and a hint of Sherry. The Salas was big. The Blackened Chicken had a Jerk flare. Very good. The Quesadilla's were delicious. I nice fresh Tex Mex dish with a bit of Easter shore flare. There is plenty of Parking, we sat right by the River and had a wonderful view. There is an extensive Drink and Draft menu as well. The Fish Whistle is a keeper. We plan to go back and take friends.

The restaurant is a few miles from the freeway in a small town. It sits by the water next to a pier with small boats. It was Trivia Night so the bar was loud with locals enjoying the game. We were greeted warmly as we entered from the rain. We were then escorted to a dining hall & seated at a corner table with a view of a river & sunset! Seafood was the highlight of the menu. It was so fresh & made the dishes very delicious. Portions are big which suited us just right. We were hungry travelers. What we really enjoyed more than the delicious food was the chat with our server. She explained the special thoroughly so we could make good decisions. Every-time she checked in on us, she initiated conversation. It was so comforting & friendly. It made our dining experience a happy one. After that we were energized for the 2.5 hours to NJ.

Same with our food orders and didn't blink an eye when one asked if she'd do separate checks. (I live in California. Many restaurants refuse to do separate checks.) I had the salmon. It was delicious. Two of my friends split a bucket of crabs. All of our meals were excellent. There is free parking in the back. I very highly recommend Woody's.

They are not even seasoned sides, which reminds me that they didn't provide old bay for the table (!), an illegal act in Maryland where crabs are served, punishable by 200 years in prison. The service was good, they have crayons at the table, kids meals come with a free ice cream cone next door. After two bites of the crab cake I started looking out the fisherman themed windows, not imagining that I was close to the bay, but I was looking for the Sysco truck making a sea food delivery to woodys.

I have to say this restaurant is fantastic. We sat on the cover deck right along the water got to see the boots coming in and out. The food was fantastic. They make an excellent bloody Mary, which is one of my favorite drinks! My mom had a peach Bellini and she raved about it. Our server was fantastic. This has become our new favorite, so we will definitely be returning and I can't wait! We had the crab dip and the muscles read for our appetizers. We love muscles and do you eat a lot of muscles I have to say they need to add more sauce to those muscles and it would make them far better. The crab dip is great. I had to crab meat tacos fantastic. My fiancé had the broiled seafood combo. It was good but for that price there was not enough food. I wish I would've taken a picture of that and I didn't so that's my fault. Definitely need to put more food on that plate for that price. My dad had the crabcakes and he said it was very good so all in all we all loved it. It's super close for my parents coming from Jersey so this is definitely be when we return great experience.

Service was very…read moregood, our waitress was very friendly and helpful when inquiring about GF options (we have family members with gluten allergies so it can make things complicated). We weren't out for a super expensive dinner and everyone wanted something different Pizza: The pizzas are excellent, yes even the GF crust. Sushi: had two specialty rolls, one we have never tried and it was fresh and very tasty Lobster Mac and Cheese: GF pasta and again it was delicious. From our experience the upstairs price for what you get is hard to beat in value and consistent food quality - from pizza to steaks, pasta or seafood they have a wide variety of options in both price and cuisine.

He invited us back out to give the restaurant another shot - and we are so glad he did! We weren't sure what to expect for the second time, and to say we were pleasantly surprised is an understatement. Every single part of the experience was phenomenal. We tried a new appetizer (I can't remember the name but it was a crab appetizer). The crab was fresh and overall, delish. We ordered the Hairy Chinn sushi again, as we did love that the first time. We both got cocktails from their menu, and they were both so unique and refreshing (we even ordered a second round!). I tried a chef special, which was the Picanha & Charred Scallion. When I tell you, it was absolutely perfect! Everything, even down to the olive oil mixture was tasty. My fiancé ordered the crab cakes and he raved about them as well! We ordered a side of Candied Brussels sprouts - and they were easily the best Brussels sprouts we've ever tried. We couldn't resist dessert and got the crème brûlée. We loved every bit! The service was 10/10, and our server was great. She was attentive, friendly, and knew the menu well! Valet parking moved much quicker, and you can't beat the beautiful view of the boats and the water. We had so many great things to say about our experience that now our families are planning their visit too! We are so grateful that Matthew reached out to us. Inviting us back has certainly turned us into loyal customers and we cannot wait to come back!

Three of us met there for lunch today, and it was delicious. Two of us had the Chicken and Waffles: thick, tender waffles topped with beautifully seasoned fried chicken thighs, then doused tableside by Kimberly with house-made maple-jalapeño syrup. Melting butter and scattered pecans added just the right crunch and richness. I also tried the blue corn grits--creamy, savory, and delicious. Our third guest had the Eggs Benedict with collard greens: perfectly poached eggs, silky hollandaise, and greens that were absolutely "grandma good." Drinks included a great sangria and spicy Bloody Marys, and dessert was carrot cake with homemade vanilla ice cream--golden yellow, egg-rich, custardy, and speckled with real vanilla. Great service, casual ambiance, and down-home, chef-cooked food with a touch of grandma's magic. Definitely recommend.
