Jerry's Place - Seafood Near Me - Prince Frederick, Maryland

Sooooo amazing. Jerry himself checked in and gave us small samples of everything on the menu. Best crab cakes ever! I'll definitely be coming back if I'm ever in Maryland again! I love the family atmosphere and the warm energy of the space! definitely a home/family feel. No need to get all dolled up - just go ready to eat! Yum! read more

We have been coming here for 15+ years, you will never find a better crab cake or customer service. The wait is worth it!!! read more

OMG...Jerry's Place is the best seafood in the land. My wife and I really enjoyed this place for dinner. We will definitely be back. Our new go to seafoods restaurant. Phillip and Reanata read more

It was a very pleasurable experience. First time in, didn't know what to expect, but we were given samples of popular menu items. The food itself was quite delicious. Nice portion sizes. Pricing was a bit much, albeit fair for the quality. Definitely recommended! read more

The crab cake is awesome all real meat, just on the expensive side. 6 oz is $32.95!

The BEST crab cakes I have ever had. The crab meat was plentiful and nice, big chunks. The kale is amazing. The stewed tomatoes are pretty good, but a little too sweet. I have never dined in as we always get our meals to go. I have never tried anything else on the menu besides the crab cakes because I typically go here when I am craving crab. The staff had always been very kind and polite. If you are looking for amazing crab cakes, I highly recommend Jerry's Place. read more

My gosh! Is all I can say. Tonight was my first time here.I'm from Alexandria and man I would travel here just for the crab cakes. I ended up Jerry's by default cause I was suppose to be staying at another hotel further away.They didn't have the amenities I was looking for so I had to find another hotel that did.Then I checked in my hotel and google restaurants in the area.The reviews were great about this place. So I decided to try it.The reviews were on point. Jerry the owner is awesome.He comes out and goes around to meet people.They give you sample of dishes. The food is the deee...lic....ous.. The staff is very friendly. It was worth the hour drive.Check them out. read more

The perfect seafood joint. The kale is the second best vegetable I've ever eaten (the first slot will probably always be held by Rasika's fried spinach). My crab cake was everything you want in a crabcake-- packed with lump crab, lightly seasoned and no filler. My husband's rare tuna was the freshest I've ever tasted. And both of my children ate every single bite of their haddock bites. The banana cream pie tasted like someone's grandma spent hours making it. The service is the best I've ever had and we went on Mother's Day, one of the busiest days of the year. A waiter introduced himself to my children, as he brought everyone some nibbles to munch on while we waited outside of the restaurant. By the time we left, most of the staff had spoken to my children by name! My daughter even said to me "they must really like us here!" (They are well-behaved 3 year olds, most waiters look at them with tolerance at best.) Seriously, this was one of the most enjoyable family meals I've ever had. It may be a long drive, but we will be back. read more

My son and I went here for lunch while a tire was being repaired next store....several months ago.....the food was over priced for what they served and to top it all off. I left a cash tip and paid for the food with a credit card and they charge my card 15% for a additional tip.....what a rip off.....will never eat here and believe me fair warning to all my friends and business associates .. read more

Jerry's is a Southern MD institution. Jerry is an amazing guy who will welcome you to his restaurant with samples of some of their dishes. The food is plentiful and yummy- just solid seafood! You definitely won't leave hungry or in poor spirits! You feel like the bay is right outside, except it's right along the highway instead... That's my only complaint, but not enough to ding them a star! read more

I was treated to dinner at Jerry's in Prince Frederick on Father's day. This was my first time at Jerry's and I was amazed at how wonderful the service and food were. I will definitely be a repeat customer. It was a pleasure to have a friendly wait staff and no music in the background that forced to you to have a louder conversation to overcome the loud music. The best seafood in Southern Maryland. read more

The Best Crabcake in Maryland..... All crab meat, and the kale is so yummy ! Did I mention the haddock bites read more

We've enjoyed a meal at Jerry's many times. The service is extraordinary, relatively fast, friendly and professional. The food is delicious and worth every penny!! if your looking for fresh seafood prepared to perfection, head over to Jerry's!! read more

What a great little place! have been there a couple of times, whenever, we find ourselves in that part of Md. Jerry, is a personable guy who cruises the tables insuring things are "right". The food selections are varied, fresh, and nicely prepared. The decor is bright with the faces (literally) of many who have frequented. "Who da thunk", this restaurant next to a tire store would be such a "GEM".....We do! K&J Severna Park, MD read more

Best seafood in southern Maryland. It's all about two things. The food and the service. Impeccable. Both of them. Can't say enough about this place, the staff or the food. Everything is can't miss. read more

My friend and I ate lunch here and I agree with other reviews. The prices are far too expensive for the food and portions. I had the soft shell entree and while it was good, certainly not worth the price. The kale was ok but the stewed tomatoes were so sweet they were almost inedible. My friend had the lobster, and it came in three small slices fried on wooden skewers! Of course he was not told it would be served this way, and assumed it would be broiled. He would not send them back and ate as much as he could. The two entrees with iced tea for both and one coffee totaled $120 with tip. Definitely not worth coming back for. read more

First off, I can't even begin to explain how great this place is. It's walk-in style, and we were served some amazing fried haddock and beverages while we waited (est 30 mins). The staff keep everyone updated, when the tables are almost ready. I loved the simplicity of the menu and the way the server introduced the specials. There is also a nice selection of wine. We ordered softshell crabs on a stick and the crab dip. These apps came out quick and were beyond tasty. The service is unprecedented from any I've experienced around these parts. The owner, Jerry personally walks around and warmly engages everyone; he is very personable. Jerry gave us a few surprise dishes to taste between courses. He even threw in a complimentary shot of Van Gogh espresso vodka w/ the dessert & coffee. Put it this way, if my mother doesn't want to leave a place until she hugs the owner, you know you are amongst the very best people. Thank you Jerry's Place for an incredible Mother's Day experience! read more

Great food, wonderful service, casual atmosphere. We go here for most birthdays. My kids love it, we love it, family coming into town requests to go here. I really can't say enough! I've never had anything that wasn't wonderful. The best calamari I've ever had. The scallops were so yummy, perfectly cooked and tender. The best seafood anywhere! read more

Greatest customer service possible. Best seafood I've had in Maryland and maybe even the east coast. Not a single bad choice on the menu. Be prepared to pay a little more but it is well worth it. You will run into a wait if you try to go between 6-10PM, but Jerry or his son (Jerry Junior) will more than happily take your drink order and give you some complimentary samples of their fried haddock while you wait. Go now and tell your friends. read more

I must be in the twilight zone - after hearing all the ranting and raving about this place we had to try it. It was ok, but not impressed. We have eaten in and carried out - both experiences the same - way overpriced, average seafood and. not much of it. Have been to a lot of seafood restaurants and am well experienced at cooking seafood properly. This seafood was the same as the average seafood chain just way more expensive and less food. What hurt the rating the most is the price to amount of food ratio. You can get the same type of food at a different establishment for a lot less money. To sum it up, there is nothing outstanding about this place or the food but it is overpriced. read more

My brother recommended Jerry's Place when we were taking our annual week in North Beach, so we met him and his friend there. As other reviewers mention, Jerry welcomes you like a long-lost relative, and immediate had a softshell crab brought to me -- I ended up ordering the combo, crab cake and softshells, and it was terrific. The crab cake was described by Jerry as lump crab meat and Helman's mayo, nothing else, and that was perfect. The softshell is something: they clean out the green tomalley and other stuff, leaving mostly meat, and it was fantastic. The stewed tomatoes are sweet, which I found excellent, but I can see that some diners might not prefer it. I ended up finishing my wife's haddock, which was also outstanding, and my brother's stuffed shrimp were so large that, despite his healthy appetite, he took half of it home. His friend had the haddock also, the second time for her, and she loved it as much the second time. Most of the negative comments I'm read here focus on the price, but I found that, for a seafood restaurant of that quality, the prices were reasonable. I paid nearly $50 for a crab cake at Stoney's in the Solomons and my crab cake and softshell combo a Jerry's was as good or better and less expensive. People: seafood is not cheap, so don't expect filet-o-fish sandwich prices. Jerry's will be a regular stop for us when we're back in the area. read more

WAY overpriced and the food was average. Yes the owner was friendly, but I expect a lot more when I'm paying 30 bucks for a lunch that doesn't even include a drink. I'm 56 years old and have traveled all over the country and the world, and it's been a long time since I've been this disappointed in a restaurant with such high ratings. read more

Excellent food and service. Really the best crab cake I've ever had. All crab meat no filler. I ordered the 6oz crab cake dinner which comes with two sides. I had the lettuce wedge and baked potato, both good. My 1 year old was with us and not even a minute after we sat down they brought out cinnamon applesauce for her and warm bread for the table. Someone else in our group ordered the soft shell crab dinner and said it was delicious (it came with two sides as well). In addition to the great food the restaurant was clean and the service was great. I spotted a staff member wiping off all the menus as they were returned to the front desk, something I definitely haven't seen other places but really appreciate. Also the high chair provided for my baby was sparkling clean. Every staff member we encountered was friendly and professional. Jerry came to our table to greet us and sent over shrimp and haddock samples. These special touches are a rare find these days but add to a great experience. I would definitely recommend Jerry's Place and will be back. read more

I don't believe any place in Southern Maryland can compare to Jerry's place. The service is phenomenal and the food is out of this world. I have waited to eat here for a long time and only regret that I have not done it sooner and missed out on great food, but now, it's on! The crab dip to the soft shell crab on a skewer.... unbelivable. You have to try it out!! Thanks Jerry for an awesome experience and you will see us again:) Suebee read more

Friendly staff and delicious tasters to start us off. Love the calamari app and the fish tasted fresh and clean with light batter and not greasy at all. The haddock sandwich was the best deal, better deal than the dinner and thicker filets. Key lime pie for 4 was just dandy. We will return! read more

AWESOME! Went based on a recommendation. Best crab cakes ever. Creamy crab soup absolutely delish. Homemade pies are delectable especially the peanut butter! Roasted tomatoes are best I've had by far. Service is bar none. The owners walk around and talk to you. Extremely friendly and we felt like family. I've never seen servers move faster yet friendly at same time. Definitely will be regulars here. read more

One of the best crab cakes in the state. Will definitely return but trying to find the "value" in my favorite dish which costs $70+ staff is very friendly! read more

We started with jerry from the beginning in Seabrook and whenever I can make it I go to Prince Frederick since it's about twenty-five miles from me now !! read more

Phenomenal. Visiting here for a week and was told I had to try. I am SO glad I did. The owners, father and son were so attentive to all customers, bringing everyone a taste of fish and some shrimp. The special was fish and a crabcake, that crabcake was superb. Nothing but crab in it! Husband had the fish , coating very light and the fish light and flaky. Wish I could take this restaurant home with me!! read more

What a wonderful dinner! This restaurant is top notch! While we were waiting for a table, the owner came out and gave us samples. As we were being seated, they made sure the kids had a snack right away. The food was phenomenal. I had the haddock bites. Man. Delish!!! The stewed tomatoes were soooooo good! We will be back!! read more

Been there twice and first time they had no crabs. But 2nd time they really outdid themselves. We had the grandpa special, so much crab meat, and the homemade sides were the best. Great staff, so very nice. Will definitely be going back. read more

Nice people, super attentive. Crabcake sandwiches were good, but not spectacular, and for $22 for a sandwich and chips I want my socks knocked off. The meal was on a par with the crabcakes I have had from Bowen's grocery in Huntingtown for about half the price. You know crabs are not a rare thing here in Calvert, right? read more

Best place around for crab cakes. Whenever someone comes in I take them here. It can get busy, but it's worth the wait. Seriously

Delicious food- I had the crab cake platter. I enjoy crab and lobster but not usually fish- and the fried haddock was delicious too! Other reviews are accurate- pricey but seafood generally is-- it's just great food. read more

Some of the best seafood I have ever eaten. Probably the best restaurant I've found on the road. Jerry and his family are so friendly. I highly recommend eating here if your even close. read more

The crab cakes are excellent. The sides complement the main dishes. Very well thought out. Super friendly owner and staff. A solid choice.

Just had an awesome experience at this family restaurant. The service was outstanding and everyone was extremely friendly. The owner walked around to greet all the customers, and he ensured samples from their menu were provided. All samples, especially the haddock, were excellent! Make sure to mention if it is your first time there. I highly recommend this restaurant, because I will definitely be going back!!! read more

So good! Crab cakes, kale, stewed tomatoes, salad. It's all great! And good to see Jerry again!

I've never experienced anything like this! The food was incredible, the staff made you feel like family. Jerry and his family were warm, welcoming, down to earth--like you are going to a family's house for dinner. The location isn't what you'd expect but do yourself a favor and enjoy this incredible experience!!! read more
