The most expensive ($27) Entre on the menu, I thought It would be special. No mention of Fried at all. Turned out to be a plate of batter-dipped, deep fried carnival food: mostly clams. a few fried oysters, 2 fried shrimp and a crab cake. I was practically sick half thru the crab cake. Unless you like fried food, avoid... More

We had large steamed crabs that were oustanding. Loaded with old bay seasoning and served with sides of melted butter and vinegar. The service was excellent and the view of the water is fantastic.

Have been there more than once. More for the tourist but always is consistent with good food and good service.

I had the dieter's delight, which was lump crab meat and fruit. It was great! The view was perfect and the service was very friendly.

A local landmark - great location on St. Michael's harbor. Steamed crabs everywhere. Next to Maritime Museum.

Loved the food, the view, the service! What's not to like about sitting at a picnic table eatting Maryland Softshell Crabs, cold beers, sunshine, and warm weather? Not a thing. We'll be back! White Bear Lake, Minnesota
