This place is a hidden gem
It has both take out and dine in service
The décor reminds me of a seafood shack down the shore very rustic down home casual
I started with the snapper soup which was good it was not the best I ever had but far from the worst perhaps if it had some chunks of snapper in it I would have liked it more. Sherry and oyster crackers available so u know this is a serious seafood place
I ordered the baked lump crab meat and it was prepared simply but to perfection. The cole slaw was very tasty. For sides u can get French fries onion rings baked potato or corn. I went with the fries which was a mistake for me they tasted fine were hot and more than enough to share but they were the coated fries that I am not fond of. Note to restaurant owners if u use a good quality potato fresh oil to fry them and lightly salt u will not need to mask the flavor with coatings or seasonings
I will return to this place and tell my friends in fact a couple I knew walked in the door as I was leaving. Nothing fancy just good well prepared food

First time visiting this restaurant since maybe 2008. I always get the Alaskan crab legs, which were good as I always remember them. For an appetizer we ordered crab balls and clams casino. The crab balls were alright they were a little less than warm. I wasn’t a fan of the clams casino. Which I usually don’t like them anywhere, but my grandparents. The service was great! She would come check on us, very nice girl. The table we sat at still had crumbs and cup marks from the previous person sitting there. Other than that I will definitely be back!

Has been our go to for seafood for many years! Never disappointed. Good food and friendly faces.

Great crabs! Absolutely terrible service. Rather than attending to tables, the waitress’ stand at the back of the restaurant eating and talking to one another. Big turnoff!

My family and I go to the West Deptford one all the time (have reccomended and brought other friends family) The food is excellent and great price !! have not had anything bad there. But if you go… it is VERY VERY casual (you go for the food).

We enjoy this seafood restaurant because all you get is seafood! Nothing fancy. Clam chowder and oyster stew that is just fabulous. Plain and filling buy just so tasty. Of course, I love oysters so I always get the oyster stew. Not expensive. Very casual atmosphere. Very casual. They have a retail section in the front where you can get hardshell crabs when in season as well as things like clams, king crab etc.
Delicious!
Please remember that this four is based on a great, down home type of restaurant. Nothing fancy. Just well cooked seafood. And tasty.

A non-​pretentious restaurant that has the freshest seafood and fish in the area! BYOB! You can also buy fish to cook at home in the front of the store!
