Great little lunch counter. Prices are good, food is fresh and comes out fast. It's self serve, but…read moredon't let that deter you. I tried a few things, the Crab cakes, broiled crab, bacon and chicken gumbo, and the crab and lobster cake sandwich. For the sandwich be sure to order whatever fixings you want with it, they're al a carte. The gumbo was delicious and a touch spicy. The fries or collards were the best sides I tried. If I had an improvement, the hushpuppies are a little dense and could use a little lighter batter. Don't miss out!

I came here for lunch with co-workers and this place is actually busy. It's a fish market with an…read moreattached restaurant. The restaurant side is spacious and the fish market offers a variety of fresh seafood and select frozen meats. I ordered the fried Cajun catfish with collard greens and Mac and cheese. It was a little pricey $19. But you did receive 2 big pieces of fish and small servings of the sides. The Mac and cheese was lacking flavor and so did the greens. It took a lot of salt and pepper. Not a fan other sides at all. But, the fish was perfectly seasoned.

Ok, so my wife love blue crabs, and as a surprise to her, on Saturday the day before we left, I went to this location and order her 1 dozen large male blue crabs. I got to my friends house and as I put them in ziplocks to freeze and pack for shipment the next day, there was only 9 crabs and not the 12 I paid for. They were large males at a cost of $50. That mean I was shorted 3 crabs at a cost $12.50. They were closed when I discovered this. I have been calling them for 3 days and only get an answering machine. Leave a message and no return call. I really feel shorted . Please check your order because I can almost understand short 1 but 3 is horrible. Who ever packed it had to know.

It took us 10 months to purchase some seafood from Captain Harrells, but we did it today! I wanted…read moreto pick a time that it was not crazy crowded. I wanted time to read the board and learn how they are operating due to covid. I loved their set up. You pull up, park and get out of your car to look at the whiteboard menu closer. Once you know what you would like, head to the door and knock. Someone will open the door and take your order. So simple! TIP: CASH AND CHECK ONLY! Today I had a sweet lady take my order and package it all up. She wore a mask the entire time, as so did we. She was helpful at showing us what a deviled crab looked like, and help explain other items. I really appreciate that she took the time to do that. It makes me want to come back and purchase more when businesses do that. There was also an older gentleman inside enjoying a crab cake sandwich. He had the biggest sweetest smile ever. He was a happy a can be with that sandwich, and I was definitely jealous! The crab cakes were delicious. I'm making something with the meat on Friday. Just not sure what yet. Another little bit of information, they have a restaurant that opened a few months ago. They have good food! It is just down the street near the Food Lion.

If you are in the mood for seafood and drive past this place you should slap yourself, and then…read moreturn around and go back. Food is consistently good. Unexpectedly good. Best hush puppies I've had anywhere, with no exaggeration. It has all the aesthetics of a repair shop waiting room, but still welcoming at the same time. And I hope they never change. Everyone who knows good places to eat already understands that most of the time the establishment doesn't come with distractions from the food. Personally, I like my family owned restaurants straightforward. They clean the shrimp. The scallops are buttery. The catfish is fried just right. Again, I hope they never change.

I stopped in to see if they had blue crabs, so I could have two dozen steamed/spiced for my drive back to Philly. I originally planned to stop at my favorite place in Rehoboth Beach, but when I called in advance to place the order, I learned the the shop was closed this week so their family could travel. Unfortunately, DeMaria's didn't have any blue claws, because according to the owner/manager, her brother didn't set the traps in Chesapeake Bay to catch them. Too bad, because I probably would have taken their entire catch. But, I learned on my trip home that the three other crab shacks I stopped at on Delmarva were all closed on Monday, if not Tuesday as well. My crab karma just wasn't working. I accepted my fate with a smile, knowing both I and those beautiful Blues would live to enjoy another day.
