Riverside Pizzeria & Carryout

I went here and they have the best crab cakes in maryland!!! Way better than olive tree! The staff here were really nice. And i loved crab cakes from here.

Best crab cakes around. Their Pizza is good as well.

For a New Yorker to give 4 stars speaks for itself– I don’t mind taking the 2.5 hour drive to New York for great pizza so if u get 4 stars from me it’s Spot on

I’ve only ever had their pizza, but it’s affordable, fast, and delicious. Going to start branching out to their other food as well

Best pizza. I crave it all the time. Usually dead inside but don’t judge a book by its cover. I do find they’re pricey but it’s worth it!

This place does a great job dealing with little league teams. It’s a good family restaurant. The crab cakes are killer. Wings were surprisingly good. Pizza was fair (warning New Yorkers). Staff was excellent dealing with large groups with kids.

I really had a difficult time finding good pizza near me. I lived in Aberdeen for almost a month and disappointed each time. However, I decided to give this place a try.
Service: Not really needed, I had the pizza to go.
Food: Ordered the buffalo chicken pizza with bacon. It was good! A little greasy, which was expected.
Price: My pizza was expensive. It was good, but expensive. A 14 inch pizza for $ 14-​ish, yeah no, that’s pricey. I don’t know it could be a Maryland thing, everything is expensive haha.
Good pizza, but the price was eh, but you know, try it.

I’ve been coming here for years. The items on the menu that I recommend are the crab cakes which are pretty good, the cream of crab soup, and my most recent sandwich the BLT. The crab cakes are good. I’ve had better and I’ve definitely had worse. I will say they are I believe the best in the area. The cream of crab soup has obvious lumps of crab meat and is so creamy. I will say that the best cup comes when the pot is almost empty. You get soooo much crab. The BLT had so much crispy bacon I was surprised. The sandwich was so thick I shamelessly had to remove some bacon in fear of a heart attack (who removes bacon?!? It was really that much).

I went to this establishment because I was craving a salad and seafood. I went here around 3pm and the place was a bit dead. I sat at the bar and was greeted by a couple different waitresses (not sure who the actual bartender was). Sadly, they only have like 3 beers on tap :(but a lot of bottled selections and many wines, not too many liqueurs though. I ended up getting a Sam Seasonal on tap.
I ordered the seafood platter and the catch of the day happened to be salmon, which was a part of the platter. I ordered the salmon grilled, coconut shrimp, and broiled crab cake with a house salad and vegetable of the day which was green beans. You can have your seafood cooked many different ways though. The salad was fairly decent. The greens were a little sad looking and not as crisp as I like, but it was still good. The green beans were cooked with tomatoes and were actually my second favorite part of my order. My favorite part was the crab cake. It was a very nice sized portion and seasoned perfectly! The salmon was alright, a little dry, but tasty. The coconut shrimp were cooked a little too long and I feel like the grease needed to be changed.
By the end of my meal I believe the actual bartender showed up and he was pretty good. The bar was actually starting to fill up. At some point while I was eating, I believe the owner spoke to me and asked me how my meal was. Very friendly staff.

I had the crab cake platter with the greek salad. Both were outstanding. This will be my new aberdeen lunch stop. Service was also excellent.

This place is surprisingly good. They serve everything on disposable servicewear, even when you dine in. They are doing their great food a disservice by putting it on styrofoam plates to be eaten with plastic forks! (But it is convenient)

Meh… Had meatball sub and Greek salad.
Sub was good, salad was sad… brown lettuce and sliced feta?
Good service, plain, but clean inside.

Did not like the pizza in the least. The sauce wasn’t good, which for me essentially kills the pizza. The crust was probably good, but the awful sauce ruined that for me.
The place does seem to specialize more in crab cakes. Those were most of the orders I saw being taken. So maybe those are good?
The counter service was good at least. And it’s self serve free refill at the soft drink machines, that’s always a plus.

Best crabcakes! Prepare to pay a little extra though. it’s Always dinner that night and lunch the next day! Love the portion size.

During a business trip I was told by local residents that this was the place to go for crab cakes. I’m no expert on crab cakes but the one I had was delicious.
I ordered the Fried Seafood Platter (½ crab cake, 5 butterflied shrimp, fries and Flounder scallops) — it was so much food I had shrimp and fries left over for a second meal. Everything is made to order and very tasty! The staff is very attentive and friendly.
I can see why this place is a local favorite.

After my hotel and cab driver both suggested I go to Riverside for their crab cakes, I figured I should give it a try. Wow — what a pleasant surprise! The restaurant is nothing fancy, but that did not deter from my meal. A friendly server kept my fresh-​brewed iced tea filled and the crab cake was superb. It came with fries, cole slaw and bread and was a lot of food. I managed to finish the crab, though. :) Gentlemen at an adjacent table had pizza that looked delicious but they didn’t offer a slice (ha). If traveling to this area again, I would most definitely head back.

Stopped in here for lunch. Two slices of pizza and a drink for less than $ 7.
The pizza here is pretty good, the crust is probably the best part. Friendly staff and a clean place. Worth checking out.

Had a crabcake platter 16.99 was told they were great. They were nice in size and they were good. Needed a little more season, however I love seasoning. Will get again. Service was helpful for a newbie.

Came here due to a living social deal. I decided to get the crab cakes. After I moved to Maryland, I have heard that crab crabcakes were the thing to have. Even so I haven’t found a place that makes them such that I like them, but that is probably just me. The crab cakes was okay but nothing special to me. Flavor was a bit bland, but it did contain large chunks of crab meat. We also got jalapeño poppers which were okay. Service was also pretty good. Overall pretty decent place.

I know they’re big for their crabcake, but I gotta say the fried rockfish is worth it just as much! The guys who work here are super friendly and I love supporting small businesses. Bit of a greasy spoon stop but it’s good for you. once in a while.
