To describe, I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and it was scrumptious. First, the cheese sauce was creamy and cheesy, but not overpowering. Likewise, the lobster was tender and had good flavor. Also, the Ritz breadcrumb topping was great. It added a nice crunch and worked well with the cheese. On the contrary, my only problem with the mac and cheese was that there wasn't enough pasta in it. However, it was still one of the best lobster mac and cheeses I've had. Over the long run, Northeast Seafood Kitchen is a very good seafood restaurant.

We pulled up to The Upscale Crab & Seafood Truck without expecting much because it's been so hard to find truly great seafood in Bethany and Ocean City. You'd think being so close to the ocean would mean amazing seafood is everywhere but that's definitely not the case. From the moment we arrived, Kevin made us feel welcome. His hospitality, honesty, and passion for his food are some of the best we've experienced in a long time. He took the time to explain every item on the menu, which includes crabs, crab cakes, lobster rolls, fried shrimp, fried fish, steamed shrimp, hand-cut fries, coleslaw, and hush crabbies. What really impressed us was his honesty. Instead of trying to sell us everything, Kevin recommended the items that were at their best that day. For example, he suggested skipping the fried fish because the day's catch wasn't as large as usual. Instead, he recommended the crab cake platter and the lobster roll. And even gave us a sample of the lobster roll which is delicious. We ended up getting a dozen large crabs, which he generously gave us a discount on, along with the crab cake platter. Every single bite was outstanding. The crabs were perfectly seasoned, and the crab cake was packed with fresh crab and absolutely delicious. Without a doubt, The Upscale Crab & Seafood Truck serves the best crabs and seafood we've had in Bethany Beach and Ocean City. I'll be in town for the next week, and this will absolutely be my go-to spot for seafood. If you're looking for fresh seafood, generous portions, and exceptional customer service, don't miss this place!

With that being said, I ordered their signature Hush Crabbies and they were delicious. To explain, the crabbies had a crispy outer crust and a soft, warm, cake-like center.

To put it briefly, Upscale Crab and Seafood food truck offers tasty Hush Crabbies that deserve your attention.

But they have a parking lot attendant helping to move cars in and out. Be prepared to wait but for our group of 2, we got sat in 25 min. I don't understand how restaurants nowadays don't do reservations but this one doesn't. Got the Ipswich clam sandwich - incredible, and a must get! I did have to look up what makes these fried clams different than regular - and I guess these are fried whole instead of strips. Makes them very juicy and a great texture. It was $30 which I don't mind but it came with a bag of chips and a $2 upcharge for fries. For a $30 sandwich... I feel they can include the fries or at least a homemade side. I got the clams linguine which was tasty but not particularly hot. While our specific waiter was great, the restaurant had some service issues, food took extra long (our waiter apologized) and something I ordered almost never came (waiter had to ask for it again). Not horrible but just somethings to work on. Overall, we'd come again but I'm sure it's easier in the off season!

We first visited this location in November 2021 right after moving to the area. Based on my…read moreprevious reviews, you probably know that we frequently dine at Matt's in Fenwick Island, and we've also stopped by the Lewes location a couple of times. We love the Sodel and Matt's restaurants; they consistently deliver great experiences and fantastic happy hour oyster specials. For this visit, we dropped in for happy hour just after 3:00 PM on a Sunday and sat at the bar, which was wonderfully clean and welcoming. Although I skipped the cocktails this time, we shared 18 Virginia Chunu raw oysters for $18. I also had the New England clam chowder ($8), though I personally prefer the version at the Fenwick location, and a plate of six delicious lobster deviled eggs ($12). Our bartender, Hannah S., was exceptionally friendly and provided top-notch service. The total bill came out to $55 before tip. We both had a great time and agreed that we'll definitely be back for another happy hour.

You know they are both the same owner or at least the same franchise even though slightly different names and a slight different array of offerings. This location at the inside area of the same plaza has seating and more seafood. They use quality bread for their oyster po-boy and and use slightly different ingredients compared to the po-boy at DB-Fries. I forget what the ingredients were at both places- you can investigate yourself, lol. I just wanted good food and to stay out of the slight rain on this particular day. The fries are fresh and well done. Better than Thrashers imo and not a line. Looking back, I probably should've gotten the lobster roll here and the po-boy at Henlopen instead because at Henlopen, it's a combination of seafood instead. Nonetheless, the seafood here was fresh and if it's not a bad day and love seafood, you probably can't really make a wrong choice Staff here is friendly.

Our first visit took place on Mother's Day around 4:00 PM. Because brunch was still being served and dinner didn't begin until 4:15 PM, I booked a table for two, and we passed the time at the bar. We caught some live music while I enjoyed a $16 Maker's Mark Manhattan before settling the bar tab. Once dinner service opened at 4:15 PM, we were seated inside at table 45 to escape a breezy outdoor deck. It turned out to be the debut day for their new menu. I ordered another $16 Maker's Mark Manhattan and the $36 seafood stew--a rich combination of fish, clams, shrimp, fennel, pepper, onion, Spanish chorizo, and tomato seafood broth accompanied by grilled bread. It was a generous portion, so I brought the remaining stew home to enjoy later that evening. To conclude the meal, I tried the Lucky 7 porter from Evolution Craft Brewing Company ($7), which featured dark dried fruit and sweet toffee tones balanced by notes of chocolate, coffee, and smoke. Our server, Brendan V., did an excellent job caring for us and demonstrated great knowledge of the new menu, even while managing a large outdoor table with five children. Our total bill for that evening came to $114, excluding gratuity. We returned on Memorial Day for a second dinner, this time in a group of five that included family and a friend visiting from Scottsdale, AZ. Since the outdoor fire tables were completely full, we secured a table on the left side of the restaurant. I began with a spicy mango margarita for $14, which featured tequila, mango, lime, agave, jalapeno, and a tajin rim, and opted for the $36 seafood stew once again. Unfortunately, the cocktails were inconsistent this time; I ordered a Maker's Mark Manhattan up, but it tasted like watered-down bourbon. When a second Manhattan tasted exactly the same, I decided to cancel the order. Nevertheless, our server Nadine K. provided excellent service throughout the evening, and our bill came out to $92 before gratuity. Ultimately, we all agreed that we would gladly visit again.
