The location is on the corner of Grant Ave and Mt. Ephraim Ave in Haddon Township, on the border of The City (Camden is literally across the street). It does not accommodate guests who want to eat in, although you could if you really wanted to, at one of the two table in the small dining room. I bought a dozen blue claw crabs with mild seasoning which came with potatoes and 4 corn cobs. I also bought a two 10 piece fried shrimp platters that came with French Fries - plus a homemade iced tea. The total was $66.88. Not bad for all that food! The flavor of the crab seasoning was great -- not overly salty -- and ample spices. I had three crabs of the batch because I was sharing. All of the crabs were a good size, but one of mine was mushy. The other two were excellent. I'd visit again to try their crawfish because I have never ever had them and folks keep telling me they're good.

While I usually order too much food, I ordered one of their smaller meals. And it was still too much food! It took me two days to eat it. The snow crab and shrimp combo came hot and seasoned well. There's several spice levels, so I might take a few visits to figure out which one is for you. I know I said that I didn't over order. But I did add sausage and a side of mussels, which were very good. The best thing about this place, besides how good their food is, is their prices. The quality and quantity really is a bargain compared to the same types of businesses locally in South Jersey and Philly. One last thing. The wings made here some of the best seasoned wings I've had. While it was ordered with a sauce, I would've enjoyed it just as well without it. Great food. Great value. Great service.

To begin, we have been unsure of this place for years for many reasons. Finally decided to give…read morethem a try, and boy do we regret it! My husband ordered a Diet Coke that they kept topping off during our time there. Only to find out they were charging us $4/refill! Mind you, the glass was filled to the brim with ice and barely any soda pop. Steak was subpar & dry for $70. Ambience.....2/10. Reminded me of my great grandmothers nursing home (rest her beautiful soul!) bill came out to nearly $200 for 2 steak dinners and 4 glasses of ice with a splash of Diet Coke. Would I recommend? No.

Meh. The reviews and pictures were mixed but we decided we wanted to try something new for my…read moredad's birthday so made a reservation for 6 people. Let me start with the service...while our waiter was friendly she was not attentive to our table after taking the order. We noticed all the other tables had bread and we were sitting for 45 minutes after ordering our meals and did not get bread or even a refill or drinks or water. We got the attention of our server and asked for bread. 20 more minutes and she brought small basket with 5 pieces of bread (for a table of six waiting over an hour now). We asked for more and 10 minutes went by, so we asked again assuming they forgot. We were told it's in the oven. Finally, another small basket of 5 slices shows up in another 10 minutes. After 90 minutes our apps arrived. Seafood chowder was ok at best, raw clams were tasty, salads and dressings were very good. Our meals came soon after, but total wait from when we sat was 2 hours. Steaks were very good, salmon was average at best, seafood pasta was ok, halibut special was decent. Overall, the entrees were forgettable. We ordered desserts which were surprisingly fantastic. The rice pudding, crem brûlée, and their cheesecake/ice cream were all delicious. Now back to the service....by the time we finished dessert, not one water glass was refilled and the table wasn't bussed. We piled our empty appetizers and salad plates at the end of the table and they remained there the entire meal. I know many people had great experiences but this is a definite one and done as everyone in our party agreed.

As a local, I've been coming here for decades. You still get to hear the man on the piano when you come. Beer is served nice and cold. Cocktails are available and drinks are very reasonably priced. Food is DELICIOUS! Hubby and son always have to get a bowl of chowder or stew. Hubby sometimes gets an extra to go. It's so good! Clams are my favorite. Never over cooked! The shrimp are amazing! A nice size and always cooked to perfection. Well seasoned and the BEST HOT cocktail sauce!!! The crabs are such a good price compared to everywhere else! But then again, all the seafood is! Service is phenomenal! You won't regret a trip here!

However, I was for the steamed crabs, I was NOT disappointed. I ordered a half dozen of the extra large crabs ($8 each), half a pound of steamed shrimp (delicious), and an ear of corn (don't forget to order the corn, it is amazing). The crabs were heavy, steamed to order, absolutely delicious, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The server, the one many of you complain about as being cranky, is actually a sweetheart. She always adds a humorous touch to my dining experience. She definitely makes my visit memorable every time. Another highlight was the free music on the juke box (I don't know if it's free all the time). The music selection on the jukebox caters to most musical tastes and it adds a nostalgic and fun atmosphere to the dining experience. Overall, if you're looking for great food (especially the steamed crabs), good music, and a bit of unexpected humor, this place is a must-visit! Grabbe's I'll see you guys next week. Lol

Why they call them "big daddy" shrimp isn't clear; they aren't jumbo. Everything was previously frozen. There was no fresh fish at all in the cases.

They included about a tablespoon of cocktail sauce and even that was watery. Our stomachs are bothering us now....maybe a coincidence...maybe not. Don't waste your time and money on this place.

Out of all of my visits, my favorite is the weekend brunch menu. There are so many yummy things to choose from like the breakfast burrito, the banana Forester French toast, the various of Benedict's including crab, and there were a bunch of various breakfast sandwiches, but the most menu appealing one that I liked is the pork roll. On my last trip I wound getting a chicken brie apples bacon on brioche bread. It was a special of the day. From the moment I bid into it, I knew I would love it for the savoriness, the crisp and sweet tasting bread. There was a side of potatoes... Very nicely seasoned and the perfect crunch to them. On my last visit, it was a total of 10 people in our group and the customer service was great. We were all able to pay with separate checks... Always a perk. The waiter was super super friendly and kept our coffee refills going. Inside it is busy which could lead away from the quiet ambience, but I didn't mind it at all.

Former home vibe, i was one of the earliest weekday diners. Since it a solo dinner, I opted for a few sides: Kimchi rice Cucumber salad Brussel sprouts (no meat or butter) The cucumber salad was so good, I ordered a second portion!! The tofu burnt ends and bbq jack fruit sounded so intriguing that I almost begged the kind server to ask the chef if they could serve a side portion. Otherwise the bbq is served in pound increments. For my lucky tummy, they obliged and wow those are both delicious vegan options! Maybe next time, i will visit here earlier during my trip to be able to take home leftovers. Booth was cozy and love that water bottle to refill my glass is on my table which sounds weird but I drink alot of water! Small place , would recommend reservations for weekend dining. Parking lot was limited too. Enjoy!

As if tips were mandatory. For two people almost 100. Dollars a total scam. I would never go back to a place like this where everyone puts their hands in the food and on top of that they charge you as if it were an à la carte restaurant. I only ate several things because not everything is food that you know to pay such an exaggerated price. On top of that, the workers see you all the time, it even bothers them if you serve yourself a large amount as if you were not going to pay it and they are almost on top of you so that you go ahead as soon as they see you choosing the dessert and on your table is the bill.

Servers were all nice but they change real quick if you dont tip at the end of the meal. ( we will get back to this.) Now for the bad. The food is regular Chinese buffet food. Not bad not great . With that said charging $50 per person for the dinner on a weekend is insane. (If I'm paying that I want a Fogo de Chao. ) Not only is it that per person than they charge a % for a tip that goes to the servers and cooks. There are signs posted at every table so you cant miss it. Now if you dont tip extra the server will tell you you read the sign wrong. We gave her an extra $20 just so we could leave in peace. Not worth the price . Would not be back.
