Menu Highlights
Award Winning Crab Cake Sandwich
A six-ounce crab cake is broiled until tender and served on a toasted bun with fresh hand-cut fries. Its generous crab filling and lighter broiled preparation make it one of the restaurant’s signature specialties.
Jumbo Crab Pretzel
A large baked pretzel is covered with house crab dip and melted cheddar cheese. Soft bread, creamy seafood filling, and rich cheese make this popular appetizer especially satisfying for sharing.
Famous Crab Cake Dinner
The restaurant’s celebrated crab cake becomes a substantial entrée with traditional sides. Its emphasis on lump crab and savory Maryland flavor has helped make it one of the most-liked current menu selections.
Blackened Chicken & Shrimp Alfredo
Blackened chicken and shrimp meet creamy Alfredo sauce and pasta for a rich combination of spice, tenderness, and silky texture. Current diners particularly praise its bold, creamy flavor.
Ribeye & Crab Cake
A juicy ribeye is paired with a crab cake and two sides, combining hearty steakhouse richness with Maryland seafood flavor. The surf-and-turf format makes it a standout choice for a substantial dinner.
Salmon Oscar
Tender salmon is presented as one of the restaurant’s premium seafood entrées. Its lighter fish base and upscale presentation provide an appealing alternative to the heavier steak and fried selections.
Prime Rib Sammy
Slow-roasted prime rib is shaved and sautéed with mushrooms and onions, then served with fresh toppings and horseradish aioli. Tender beef and creamy, sharp sauce make this popular sandwich especially flavorful.
