Let me start off by saying I’m not from the area so I did my best research to find the most highly rated crab cakes in the area to see if they lived up to the hype. The answer is a resounding yes. The crab cakes were very dense and flavorful. I couldeat one a day. Paired with the Potato Salad and House Fries made for a memorable meal. I will definitely be returning to thisestablishment.

It's off the beaten path and away from all the hype surrounding the Harbour. The service was undeniably 5-Star. The food was the best seafood I've had since childhood!! Fresh REAL LUMP CRAB CAKES and the Crab dip is an experience you'll never forget. Thefries had the wonderfully perfect balance of crisp outside and tender center. I was delighted by the sauteed mixed veggies thatincluded squash and zucchini. The Dockside Punch was very tasty, with the perfect portion and just the right amount of alcohol(not overpowering nor too little). We will be back from Pennsylvania VERY SOON!!
