Since all I had heard about for two days were how great the lobster tails were and how great the people that work there were telling you how to cook them, giving you hints about doing them Just Right. Well, I didn't have the same experience at the Edgemont store and it wasn't because they were busy. There were two or three women in there working and I was one of only two customers. I asked the lady that was waiting on me how to cook them. First, she told me just cook them until they look like they're done. Really? When pressed for further details she Then told me "well you know you just cook them until the shell turns red and the lobster is white". C'mon I don't know anyone who has time to sit at the oven and peer through the glass to see when it's done. No, I was thinking people that worked in the seafood store would know the proper answer to this. for example saying cook it at 350 for 15 minutes etc. Or having a handout sheet with cooking instructions on it like all the other seafood places I've been to. I don't feel like I'm being picky here because the lobster tails were $40ish. I spent $148 and some change here. Please do better at this location.

We got there late and we're lucky they had a dozen crabs left they five you the option of spicy or not spicy seasoning ( I chose to buy them cooked but you can opt for uncooked) the guy behind the counter was not super friendly but not rude. He answered my questions patiently (which was nice since we came about an hour before last order can be taken). They text you when your order is ready and have it packed up nicely. And we got a bonus crab and lots of legs for being the last order of the night. The seasoning was good and spicy. Crabs and shrimp both delicious. And the shrimp had a sweetness to it. Everything seemed fresh. It was just me and my sister but I ate 5 to 6 crabs...so happy ....I've been craving crabs for a while now.

I ordered a dozen large spicy male crabs. The claws and legs were full of meat and flavorful. If you're looking for steamed crabs without the disappointment, check out Jae Seafood . I purchased early in the day around 1130-noon, the quality and service was great. Facts: I walked in placed my order, asked the price ($47), and was told 25 mins. I received a text when done and it was worth the wait. This business has a new customer. Yes, I measured the crab and each one was about the same size.

I visited last night with my family for our first dining experience at this restaurant. While I…read moreunderstand and respect their 90‑minute dining limit, the way it was handled fell short of basic courtesy and professionalism. Instead of our server approaching us to explain that our time was ending, a teenager, who had not interacted with us at all during the meal, was sent over to abruptly drop the check on the table. For first‑time guests, this felt dismissive and unnecessarily abrupt. A simple, polite heads‑up from our waiter would have gone a long way. Clear communication and respectful interaction are part of good hospitality, especially when enforcing policies that guests may not be familiar with.The food was enjoyable, but the way the time limit was communicated needs improvement. Better manners, clearer communication, and a more professional approach would make the overall experience much more welcoming for new diners.

Called ahead and the man was nice over the phone. He told me he only takes cash or credit, no EBT....uh okay, no problem. I was surprised that my meal came in an aluminum pan. You know the ones you use for cook outs and such. The crab legs were on the small side from what I'm used to. The vegetables were perfectly cooked. The butter sauce was okay but it was not the garlic butter sauce I was looking for. The price of the platter was fair but honestly I know I can get better which means I'll have to wait until I go back home (to Philly) to get the real deal.

We started with a Long Island Flight with four different drinks of varying taste from sour to sweet to waking me up for the delicious food coming out next. We did a half and half snow crab and dungeness crab with fries soaked in garlic butter. Did we take a photo, nope we dove in too fast. The last order was the cream of crab soup which was flavorful, creamy and savory for us while the fish and chips changed up our palate but the winner in my boyfriend's book was the crab pretzel.

I called ahead and asked if they could hold off on cooking my meal since I wasn't nearby yet (it was going to take me about 50 minutes to get there). I wanted my food hot and fresh, and they delivered exactly that! By the time I arrived, my order was still piping hot and ready to go. I ordered the salmon nuggets and swai with broccoli and red potatoes. The portion sizes were HUGE, I shared it with my teenager and still had enough left over for lunch the next day. Everything was cooked perfectly. The salmon nuggets were moist, not overcooked (which is hard to get right when frying salmon), and the swai was clean and flavorful. Even after reheating the next day, the fish was still tender and juicy, not dry at all. On top of all that, the customer service was amazing; and let's be honest, that's not always the case at seafood spots. the place looked like a typical seafood spot. If you know you know. It's not a dine-in restaurant. Overall, I give this place a 10/10. I'll definitely be back!
