A pile of good hot food at a very fair price! Additionally, I was met at the counter by the welcoming owner, who chatted me up for a few min as a first timer. This place is clean, neat and preserves the nostalgic feeling of an Eatern Shore meal stop. We sat outside at the picnic tables under the big trees. ill be back.

A must stop. We had a fantastic soft crab sandwich, catfish and crab cakes, served by the nicest people. Fresh and delicious.

Looks can be deceiving. Be sure to stop in if you are passing through. Bare bones place, order at counter and eat outside. Excellent fried oysters and soft shells, dusted in corn and cracker meal plan and fresh fried. The definitely change their fryer oil often - no rancid or dark oil taste.Hush puppies, slaw and crinkle cut fries come with all platters, all tasty! Only thing we didn't like so much was the crab cake: very fine shredded meat, little on the fishy side.Cold drinks in cans/bottle in cooler, and Dessert is a candy counter. Great lunch stop or carry out. Fresh seafood also available, reasonable prices.

We stopped here on our way back to Virginia, and the food was incredible—hot and delicious! My husband and I both love seafood, and this place will definitely be our go-to from now on. If you’re ever in the area, I highly recommend visiting this restaurant!

Stopped by one day for some lunch and got a combo with fish, crab cake, oysters and shrimp w/fries, it was Delicious! My Husband and I sat right there and enjoyed it. We finished the rest later that evening. We’re from Delaware and ride down to Metomkin’s for lunch.

What a great road trip to have some fried seafood!! The food was so fresh. We got seafood platters, fish and chips and a fried shrimp basket. The place is nice and small and only outdoor picnic bench seating. They give u plenty of tarter sauce and ketchup to dip your crispy fries and even crispier seafood.. my favorites were the fish and the shrimp and the soft shell crab and I cant forget the hush puppies. I definitely recommend if you or in the area or traveling through..

Good food, fast service, local gem. Constant traffic non stop pick up orders and take out. Picnic area for outside eating and local stray cat for table side entertainment. Please be kind to the cat,she's really sweet.

Cool little spot! The lady was very friendly, and helpful. They did not have a bushel of oysters for sale, but they had plenty of other fresh seafood. Grabbed some shrimp and fries for lunch... Tasty!
