The food and the customer service was excellent. JB was our server and he had great energy and made sure we were thoroughly satisfied and taken care of. I got the baby crab bomb with green beans and a baked potato. It was pretty filling and soooo good!! read more

This was my first visit to the "new" location in Bowie. What a treat! It was lunchtime but we were able to get a table quickly. The hostess and wait staff were pleasant and helpful. The menu had something for everyone and my broiled shrimp with crab imperial was AWESOME! I'm a believer. Lastly everything was reasonable priced. I'll be back. read more

Jerry's seafood was pretty fantastic. We went on a Monday afternoon and they were suprisingly busy. The food and drinks came fast, very large portions. Kids had shrimp w/ fries and chicken fingers w/ fries, each plate was enough to share for 2 kids. All the food was fresh, the fries were wedges, perfectly crispy, wait staff was pleasant and knowledgeable, restaurant was very clean and well decorated! Will definitely return... read more

Very busy restaurant and after tasting the food, I can see why. Although the wait was long, I've waited longer for less. The staff were welcoming and shared their knowledge of how the food was prepared. After ordering, appetizers and salads were out within 10 minutes and entrees 15 minutes later. You have to try their Crab Bomb, their staple; absolutely phenomenal. No fillers all crab (Crab with a C). read more

Jerry's Seafood - 10 ounce Crab Bomb with potato wedges. - Seafood Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

The best crab bisque i have ever had, along with the best crab bomb. Arrived fresh and wonderful.

The best jumbo lumb crab bomb, which is their version on a crab cake. It had 8 ounces of crab served with two sides. I chose the fresh greens beans and house sale with their signature lemon dressing. My family also shared the following appetizers: calamari, crab dip and steamed shrimp. Everything was delicious and the device was Grady. read more

There are, quite literally, no crab cakes that are superior to a crab bomb. I will die on this hill.

The best darn crab dinner I've ever had in my life! That is not an exaggeration, it's the whole truth. They are famous for their "crab bomb" and after having it, I can say "rightly so". And to heap a little bit of extra praise on Jerry's, his grandma's recipe for slightly sweet Cole slaw is in the top two of my entire life. The entire meal was outstanding. Service was excellent; attentive without being pushy. The drink I ordered wasn't to my liking, I asked the waitress about a possible mix-up in contents and she quickly brought (correct) replacement. Everything for our group was hot, correct meals in front of each diner and all served quickly. Ambiance was nice, family and group friendly, vibrant without being loud. read more

I ordered my food online for pick up at 11:45 am. I arrived at the right now but the order was not ready. The young lady at the window told me it would be about 5 more minutes. I came back around 11:55. She notified me that it was still not ready. I waited until 12:15 and the young lady was very apologetic and said the kitchen was backed up. I finally received my ordered at 12:25. Overall for the food taking awhile to be ready, everything was delicious when I got home. The crab cake was so big and yummy. No fillers!! The cream of crab soup and the Maryland crab soup was hot and tasty! I will definitely be back. read more

The food is great and our server Kayla was such a joy. The crab bomb definitely lives up to the hype. No filller and lots of succulent crab. Go there if you like great seafood and a great experience! Thanks again Kayla! read more

Service was great, waitress was accommodating and friendly. Ambiance was perfect for the occasion but the food was good, except catfish was too sweet. read more

The value for dollar is just not here. It was pricy from the beginning, but at least you got a decent portion of food. Now, the famous crab bombs are smaller than most restaurants' basic crab cakes! At $44.95 per bomb, I expect to get more than a small crab cake. I totally get that everyone has been impacted by inflation, but this is ridiculous. It's an insult! I also ordered the she-crab soup, and it was basically Lima bean and corn in a tomato base with a dollop of crab meat thrown on top. What's worse, it was nearly ice cold when it arrived--not even food-safe warm. Disappointing. I made my last trip there over the weekend. read more

Ummm ... what is there to say about long standing fixture in the community. Now they have moved (several years prior), from the original location. But Jerry's is know in this area for very good seafood. This trip was no exception. This was late Saturday night which for as busy as it was we didn't feel crowded or rushed. We enjoyed a lovely evening with friends. The meals were great as expected. Our waitress was attentive and not hovering. The one thing that wasn't great was the old fashion I ordered. I recently have acquired a taste for them. It seems that they are not the easiest of drinks to make. They are still on the 'A' list. We will be back Again! read more

If someone invites me to go, I would but otherwise, I wouldn't go back. The crab bomb was underwhelming-- it was a ball of unseasoned lump crab meat. Our waitress was very welcoming. read more

Jerry's Seafood - Crab bomb - Seafood Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

Great food and great service !! I would highly recommend. The crab bomb is a staple of course.

Definitely NOT the neay crab cakes noo where near that. Ppl hype this place up and I'm Not sure why‍‍ It's just meeiocre

It had been several years since I visited Jerry's and visited on a Wednesday night around 8 PM. I was surprised at how busy the restaurant was especially the bar. Typically when I am alone, I like to sit at the bar but opted for a table instead. The hostesses were pleasant and efficient. My waiter, who unfortunately I cannot remember his name was very engaging and provided excellent service I had the cream of crab soup for a starter. It was rich and creamy with chunks of crab and old bay. For my meal, I had the baby bomb, which was good, but seemed a little dry, perhaps due to the time of the night. Otherwise, it was full of crab meat. The dining room is nothing spectacular for ambience, however, is large and accommodating read more

The food is consistently delicious. The hostesses and servers are always friendly and accommodating. We always feel welcomed. The bar area is not the largest, but the area is comfy and the beverages are tasty and hearty. This is a happy place to take friends, family, visitors and is kid friendly, too. read more

Do you love seafood? Jerry's sure does. Best crabcake in Maryland. The Crab Bomb and Baby Bomb. Every thing else there is about the same quality. And in season, ask if they have stuffed softshell crabs. Amazing and worth the price! read more

You will never find a better crab cake! Family run operation for over 30 years! You will never be disappointed!!! read more

They're currently renovating the interior. To order, call then go around the building to pick up/pay for your order at the window. Since it's colder now, DRIVE AROUND. You can park and carry your food right back to your car. Same food, still worth it every time. I like my bomb for breakfast. read more

As always, Jerry's is a wonderful experience. Fres, well-prepared seafood and friendly service. My favorite seafood restaurant!

Good food. Good atmosphere. I agree with the Yelp community, the food is good! My waitress was friendly and efficient she gave me time look over the menu and brought out my order in a timely manner. All the seafood tasted fresh. The crab balls, roasted green beans and crab dip were DELICIOUS! I will definitely be coming back and would absolutely recommend this venue. Small tip - I understand there is always a long wait to get in. I will say though, it is worth it. read more

The food was excellent! The crab bomb was seasoned and baked to perfection. The salad was fresh and delicious! The attention, kindness, and courtesy of the staff was unmatched. Our server, Adriana went beyond expectations. Her supervisor, Edwina, epitomized professionalism. A young server, Tyree, was helpful, attentive, and courteous. This was my first visit to Jerry's and I will dine there regularly in the future! My first experience was incredible and very memorable! read more

I havent been here in over ten years!! Not since I had to go to pharmaceutical rep dinners in their back room - when I came yesterday i realized i had never actually sat in their dining room/bar, never experienced the service. After my latest experience, idk why i havent been here over the years, i really had a quality dining experience (sat at the bar). Bartender was attentive and super friendly (handsome too lol), and my food was brought out timely and hot.. got the baby firecracker bomb with green beans, Caesar salad, and crab dip. EVERYTHING was great. I appreciate that they put the salad dressing on the side for you to put it on yourself- some places go overboard. The other patrons around me seemed happy with the drinks coming from the bar and there was overall just a nice vibe. Ill be back! read more

Consistency is the theme here. I've been coming to Jerry's since the 90s at the previous location in Lanham. I must say, I've never experienced an off night or lunch. They got the customer service down to a science. The bartender came to our table to ask my daughter the recipe for a drink he made her previously. Food comes out hot, taste to perfection and the portions are right on point. I'm eating the rest for lunch tomorrow. Jerry's, please don't change your winning formula! read more

Service was a tad slow, but that could have been because we arrived shortly after they opened. The crab bomb as everyone has said was great. It was huge and impressive. My husband left stuffed. I had the fried oysters - they were good and not oily. However, I bit hard into a pearl! Well, at least we know they were fresh. read more

Nice family restaurant. Not a very wide menu selection. But the food was decent. Our server was okay. read more

The crab lump price went up but the crab lump portion is extremely smaller like a crab cake, and the fried jumbo fried shrimp stuffed with crab lump price is higher and the portion is extremely smaller. Your not getting your money worth I used go to Jerry's see food all the time in Greenbelt before they closed and after pandemic all the prices are higher and portion sizes are so small now that I go to Bowie md read more

Another awesome meal. Crab and shrimp bomb, baked potato, salad, cream of crab, service.... All = perfect. read more

It's been a couple of years since I've last visited Jerry's so came here b/c it's the closest place near me where I can enjoy a crab cake with little to no filler. I ordered the crab & shrimp baby bomb with a side baked potato. Sat on the bar side b/c the dining side was a little too quiet and a cute elderly couple were just enjoying themselves as if they had the whole restaurant to them :) The bartender made me an old-fashioned which was pretty good. I absolutely love the salad with the house made dressing!!! 5 stars for whoever crafted that recipe! My 4 star rating though is b/c service was extremely slow on a weeknight, it took over 40 mins to get our food. To-go orders were popping out left & right but seated-in patrons took forever. Next time I'll sit on the restaurant-side for quicker service. read more

Jerry's Seafood - The crab & shrimp baby bomb was delish! - Seafood Near Me - Bowie, Maryland

I have to say that this seafood was very fresh. I usually eat in Annapolis or Baltimore when I go for fresh seafood. However, Jerry's did not disappoint. The "Crab bomb with shrimp was to die for. Although there wasn't much shrimp in the crab cake it only cost and extra dollar to add shrimp. The crab dip was superb. It wasn't heavy with cream cheese and cheese but it was heavy with fresh lump crab meat. A well done dip. We arrived early around 1130 so there wasn't many people there but when we left at around 1pm there was a crowd. The servers were very courteous and professional. The drinks were awesome. The had a Tito's strawberry lemonade that everyone should try it. Will definitely come here again. read more

if you're a crab lover, one of the best seafood restaurants in the DMV. All lump (no kidding) cakes. The crab bomb, self explanatory, is the best crab experience I've had ever, both in and outside of the country and i'm pretty well traveled. The restaurant is solid but doesn't offer much in the way of ambiance. it is however clean, the sides are basic but well executed, and the wait staff is consistently polite and competent. There is sometimes a bit of a wait, especially on holidays. a mid week dinner visit is best if you want to walk in. I highly highly recommend. read more

Good was delicious and service was quick. The crab was well worth the price! The crowd was lively.

My family and I went just yesterday, we are a large group and they were able to accommodate us. The room we were in was beautiful. The doors were able to close to give us some privacy and that made it great. Our server's name was Eddie and HE WAS PHENOMENAL! The food was amazing! We even had some starter bread (which restaurants as a whole are starting to do less of) and that bread was amazing. The vegetable of the evening was string beans. Although I'm not a fan of string beans, they were very good. I had the crab cake sandwich with wedges and MY GOODNESS it was amazing. The sweet tea was great. Overall this was a wonderful experience and the food was amazing. Happy eating ! read more

Jerry's Seafood in Bowie, MD, is a must! The seafood was phenomenal, fresh and tasty. I highly recommend the Jumbo shrimp and fried catfish meals. Not only is the food second to none, but the service is first class. I went to dinner on a Saturday evening and was promptly served. As a matter of fact it appeared that everyone had an enjoyable time. I would like to shout out my server Dom for promptly serving me and treating me like royalty. I would also like to acknowledge my buser Qaadir who was super polite (job well done mom). Ms. Edwina the manager was checking each table engaging with the patrons. You don't find too many restaurants that extend such outstanding service plus delicious meals. My experience at Jerry's was amazing! ~ Cheryl read more
