Best crab meat in the area

by BillDouglass at Citysearch

My wife and I frequently drive down from Stroudsburg because they have the best crab meat we have ever found. We get the cold lump crab with drawn butter for dipping.

We always start with the Broiled Clams for an appetizer. They are different and delicious.

  • Pros: Great lump crab meat, no shell

For the money we spent, Never again!!!!

by jfroger24 at Citysearch

First of all, the New England Clam Chowder had so much rosemary in it, the taste was way off also had a brown tint to it. My wife and I ordered the broiled dinners, You have to be kidding me, they were way over cooked, small portions, and completely flavorless and way over priced!! The baked potato she ordered was black in the middle. The raw oysters had pieces of shell in them, the steamed clams where overcooked and not steamers at all, the chef needs to go to new england and see the difference between clams on a halfshell and steamers!!!!!! The best part of the night was gettting the check to leave, oh and actually paying over two hundred and fifty dollars for four of us to eat, what a joke!!! If your going to advertise as a five star restaruant and charge prices like that, heres a tip, fire the damn chef!!!!!! and get your portions and food fresh and up to par. Very big dissapointment, we will never be back!!!!!

  • Pros: Parking
  • Cons: Food, prices oh did i mention the food sucked, way overcooked and small portions.

Not worth time or money

by kanto1 at Citysearch

This restaurant wasn't very good at all. Waitress kept talking about "how crazy it is in there" (the kitchen I guess) to excuse slow service. Waited a long time for drinks and food. My broiled seafood combo was so bland - just two shrimp, three scallops, some fish and some crabmeat in water - should have been lemon butter but had no flavor at all. Veg medley was frozen. I could have made better than this at home. The prices were far more than the quality of food warranted. Seafood is much better at the Stoned Crab.

  • Pros: Seated right away
  • Cons: everything else
