Was Melanie B at Hard Shell a mag?
The crabs were exceptional—meaty and generously sized. The service was excellent as well. I placed my order by phone, and my crabs were ready in only 30 minutes. View all feedback.

The best steamed blue crabs! They’re always packed with meat, regardless of their size. The prices are reasonable, and it’s takeout only.

My eyes were bigger than my stomach because the crab cakes were bigger than expected! I mean, 4oz doesn't sound like much, does it? But when that's 3.9 oz of crab meat and a wee speck of filler, wow, do you get (wait for it FILLED up fast! Not that I didn't try to eat my delicious cream of crab soup...and not that I didn't polish off two delish crab devilled eggs... And, hey, don't judge me for also having some of the shrimp salad (which is not usually a favorite, but certainly is now! . This non-descript, family-run little spot is a fantastic place and is my new go-to for all things crab. I'll definitely be working with them to get some fresh fish, too!

Love the crab cakes here! They don't come cook but just 8-10 minutes in the oven or airfryer and you're good to go. Super delicious and the price is perfect. If in the area, a great place to stop by.
