It's was good!! I didn't like the drinks. They were nothing but juice in little glasses. I loved the Boom Boom sauce on my boil. Music was on point. I may come back!!

I took my son here for a little Mother's Day lunch.. we did get a Dungeness and shrimp boil(Snow crabs are a waste of $), a chicken tender meal, I had a Mai Tai,Son a mango lemonade,we had some onion rings for appetizer and I had a salad..everything came up to $98. I gave it four stars for the atmosphere, because they had rap music playing with cuss words. I just turned up the volume on my son's tablet to drown it out.. I really did not like that.. everybody does not listen to this music, and kids should definitely not be listening to itother than that, everything was everything.. the seafood was fresh and my server Ernando was great

Menu is expansive. Food is well presented and tast. Profanity laden loud music, difficult to communicate to waitress and table mates. Not good atmosphere for children.

Dream Chaser

This spot was cool for a late Friday night dine-in. It’s very much giving the local β€œHook & Reel”, β€œRock & Toss” & β€œNot Just Crabs” seafood establishments sprinkled throughout Baltimore. They offer the seafood boil bags and your typical fried seafood baskets. I tried the Cheese Crab Meat Fries without asking about the type of cheese used but that was my fault, they came out with liquid cheese which I despise but besides that the fried were hot & crispy, I was able so the chunks of crabmeat so that was a plus, everyone who tried them said it was pretty good and of course they didn’t mind the liquid cheese. All of the fried items pretty much tasted the same, ordered whiting & shrimp, tasted my Besties calamari, which BTW were the size of onion rings so we were a tad bit confused at first. We were there to celebrate a birthday so the atmosphere was electric, we had a good ole time singing super loud & dancing, hopefully not annoying the other customers too much, but a few joined in on the fun. The staff danced along with us at different times, they were SUPER friendly and very accommodating. Decent eats, good music, and a great time was had with the fam.
