When you pulled off a claw, water ran out of the shell. The meat was watery and terrible. Don't waste your money. Heads up, you are supposed to steam crabs not boil them in water.These people do not know how to cook crabs.

I have been a fan of Captain Greg's for quite some time. I have even referred quite a few people…read morethere over the years. They usually don't disappoint with the size of the crab, and the flavor of the crab used to be on point. They have been in Mechanicsville for years. The last couple of times I visited left me questioning my loyalty. I have been trying a couple of places in the area, and maybe I'm particular about crab and how it's prepared. When I buy anything, regardless of what it is, customer service can ruin the experience. I purchased crabs from here a couple of weeks ago and the lady at the register refused to put the crab seasoning on the crabs (I thought that was the idea). I hate a bland crab! I have tried Crab's, crab boils, sauteed crabs, steamed crabs etc... Yes size does matter, but not if they are bland. During the second visit, I was happy the owner was present ( he's nicer). He tried to accommodate me, however I requested female crabs (my preference) and when I arrived home I had male Crab's. Yes ! They were nice and meaty, but tasted like rubber. I was so disappointed, and upset, but at this point I was over it. It's a shame because I had been hankering some Crab's and 3 day's later, I still have the Crabs. I tried to doctor them up but, no bueno! I have purchased Crab's from places I didn't expect to like, and they were better than Captain Greg's! I don't think I will be returning, but I guess I'm particular.

I pulled into the parking lot and this place has a unique setup. All the tables are outside similar to checkers. The place looks like it belongs in a dessert or South of the Boarder based on the color which is odd as well. They take your orders at the walk-up window. When I originally arrived, I didn't see much business but while I waited for my food the cars were pouring in left and right. My hopes for the food increased. There is a menu on the outside that is somewhat difficult to read and navigate. A ton of options with some whopping prices. I ended up ordering the 1 Snack and Fries. I wanted something good but also light as I had another place in Richmond I wanted to try. $14.99 seemed good until I saw this bogus, Local meals tax on top of the state sales tax. This caught me off guard. I ended up waiting in my car for about 20 minutes and later heard my name called over the microphone. The gentleman showed me the food, and it was 3 large pieces of fish. The fish was delicious. The fish was Cooked well, and I could taste the flavor. Way more than I expected. Tartar sauce elevated the flavor. The fires were piping hot and good as well. I wish I had some ketchup, but they were still good. I loved that they were salted but if I had high blood pressure I should have stayed away. You can see the salt on the fries. They were good to me. Overall if I were in Richmond again, I'd definitely stop. The food was good. I would definitely try more options. The customer service was good. The cashier and food distributor were on their A game. Outside could use some love and care but it is what it is.

I'm sure the seafood/fish is good, my hubby liked his imperial crab salmon! I ordered the Hooked burger, and I subbed the pepper jack cheese for American. The presentation was nice, but the burger was bland and lacked seasoning. Montreal steak seasoning on this burger would have done wonders! Or some Worcestershire sauce or steak sauce... the chef needs to up his "turf" game! The lettuce was wilted, as was my spirit. The fries were ok, a tad a salt please, and I'm not trying to be "salty"! The atmosphere: beautiful blues and turquoises surrounded us and the ocean decor was lovely! We loved our cozy booth and the subtle music added a nice touch! Outside in the warmer weather, the music and outdoor seating is inviting! The service: Robin was spectacular! Efficient, friendly, and accommodating. She welcomed us with a warm smile and gave us the happy hour specials! Applause!! The prices: For what you get, in today's market the prices were reasonable. So all good there! So for service, price, and atmosphere - 3 stars!!

I ordered 6 Pieces of Korean Fried Chicken, with the Seafood Platter. (Oysters, Scallops, Shrimp) It tasted just as amazing as it smelled. The Korean Fried chicken was glazed beautifully, and was very sweet and savory. It had an amazing crust, and the 6 pieces was well priced. The Seafood Platter was all done Tempura style, breaded and fried. Each piece was so juicy, especially the scallops. I was expecting to finish the 6 pieces and seafood platter in one go, but it took over two meals. The portions were great for what I had paid.

Due to COVID, the place had tables and chairs for inside dining, but they were stacked to the side and they only offered pickup orders. We ordered the fish and shrimp platter, which came with fries or coleslaw. We got the fries. We were a few minutes short of the lunch special, where you could get the the same thing, for 3 dollars cheaper (we paid 9 and some change), but with smaller portions. The kitchen is located near the front register and you can watch while your food is being prepared. The menu is, of course, heavy with seafood options in addition to steamed crabs and crabmeat for sale. The fish was thin and fried perfect and crispy. The shrimp as well. Fries were golden and good as well. All in all, a good place to grab a quick bite of seafood when in the area.

They're very helpful with any questions or recommendations you may have. The happy hour also has fries for a great price. I love their thin fries. On a recent visit, I decided to try their special of the night which was a fried boiled egg with salmon. This was beyond delicious. I'm on a huge boiled egg kick, so trying this sorta Scottish egg dish was amazing. We were told the chef making it was known for it at their previous restaurant.
