Wish this place was closer. The crabs and oysters were HUGE! The service was pretty good, and the outdoor seating on a nice, breezy day is a plus. Right when you park and get out of your car, you're going to smell funky sewage smell but it doesn't matter because you're about to get the best crab you've had in your life.

We dined here for the first time and we were a bit disappointed. The cream of crab soup was served in styrofoam containers and it was luke warm. It also had an odd taste to it and was mediocre at best. The crab cake sandwich was very small and served on a standard grocery store type potato roll. For the price paid , this was absurd. The shrimp salad was very good but also very small. In general, we did not have a good experience here and for the overall price, we could have done much better elsewhere. I gave a 2 star because the crabs for two combo looked very good and now we wished we tried it.

Absolutely no complaints! Awesome crabs, good corn, shrimp and wonderful service (Katherine was great) don't sweat it if you can't sit outside the view is cool from inside as well. Keep in mind You have to share tables but what better.... crabs and new friends. Great stop for crabs and things.

We came here on 09/05 to bring my mom's friend here because we love coming here for the seafood but Saturday's experience left much to be desired. We usually can just walk right in but there was a little bit of a wait which was a non-issue since I know the food is great. We get seated upstairs after about a 15-20 min wait. We wait longer than usually for a server to come over and when she finally does she says, they didn't tell me that I had this table. OK, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt since it was crowded. We started off with drinks and the tea & lemonade tasted like flavored water with a douse of sugar...no tea or lemonade taste....OK! Just bring me water from now on. We ordered an app which was the crab dip...worst crab dip I've ever tasted...it was very dry which is unusual for a place that specializes in crab dishes....OK won't order that again. Our entrees consisted of blackened catfish, oysters (yum), grilled cheese & lobster pasta. The only thing I could say is that I wish my food was hotter (felt like it had been sitting waiting to be picked up). My auntie said that the lobster pasta missed the mark with the lobster. All in all my experience here was less than stellar and if it was my first time here, I would never return but since I am a regular I will be returning just won't be sitting upstairs. Harris is a great place for seafood in Kent Island especially if your a steamed crab lover so check it out for yourself & maybe I'll run into you while your there.

Absolutely worth the drive from Northern Virginia! I'd never heard of Harris', but my friends said it had great reviews. So I hopped in the car for the hour ride for lunch! The restaurant is right on the water, and there is even a porch with seating that looks out over the water. The interior is decorated like the quintessential seafood restaurant. We all went with the bottomless Maryland crabs. For just under $40 we had unlimited crabs, a cup of soup, and two sides! Although there is a two hour limit on the crabs, we were completely stuffed before our limit was up. We were brought a giant tray of crabs, hammers, and buckets for our trash. Of course, this was a messy meal, but bibs and wet napkins are available upon request. There is also a role of paper towels on each table. Our waitress was awesome! She answered all the crazy questions we asked. She kept coming by to refill our drinks and empty our shell buckets. Harris' is the place to go for Maryland crabs!

After reading the yelp reviews we look a huge risk and drove over an hour to eat here! This place side not disappoint at all! Excellent service! Our waitress was very polite, gave us a couple suggestions and checked on us a couple of times. Everyone enjoyed their food, absolutely loved their crabs! And the view.... Wow, the view is to die for! So worth the drive!

This has been my family's and family friends' favorite spot to get Maryland crab for years now. It's a little bit of a drive to get here from MoCo, but it's worth it. I recommend walking off the food coma at the outlet mall 20 minutes away after your meal. We always try to sit outside on the 2nd floor deck if the weather is nice. It's got a view of the water and a nice breeze that you don't get when sitting on the 1st floor deck. Note that you can only get the steamed seafood on the 1st floor deck, though that's all you really need here. We always get the extra large or jumbo crabs here, because mediums are just not worth it for all that work. Though you'll probably get pretty full after just 2 jumbo crabs, you may want to go with the extra large. Don't forget to ask for the butter sauce to dip the meat it. We also usually get steamed shrimp with old bay and fresh oysters. And when you're all done, definitely get the nutty butty ice cream! They don't cake on the old bay like many places around Maryland do, which we like a lot. It makes the crab eating experience a lot less salty, which is something my non-Maryland friends complain about. I also know a lot of Koreans come here because the way they use less old bay seasoning - just FYI. In the end when you come here, definitely get the crabs if nothing else.

Planned this trip a month ago with my cousins and sister and the day turn out great even though it rained. This was our first time at Harris Crab house and the crabs were amazing and the service was exceptional. Kelly was our waitress and she was really nice and explained to us our options and and gave us plenty of time to decide and always came to check on us. Of course all of us went with all you can eat medium crabs and the two sides. Although the crabs were medium size there was plenty of meat in them and they were delicious. The place itself was very clean and it didn't have that seafood odor some seafood restaurants have. The decoration in the place was really cool and you could buy souvenirs and the prices were fair for crabs. Overall we had a great time and will be coming back again. And FYI even though it's all you can eat crabs there is a 2 hr limit but that is plenty of time cause we couldn't make it through a second tray. You'll be in a crab comatose.

I visited for the first time on labor day and was very satisfied! !!! I called ahead to be sure there wasn't a long wait time. The hostess told me there was no wait for inside seating but outside seating was 30 mins. We took the inside upon arrival. I was surprised it was so empty for a holiday but I guess everyone was at the beach. We ordered a dozen med crabs for $40. They were delicious!!! I've been thinking of them ever since! Lol they were hot and steaming on a tray brought to the table. When we were jus about done our food was brought out. I ordered pretty much a Po boy sandwich. Toast was a lil hard for me but thts jus personal preference. Lol oysters were fried just right. Hush puppies were really good. Overall I give it 5 stars!! Def worth the ride and money $$$ :)

We ate at Harris a few years ago and were excited to return. The outside deck provides wonderful background scenery for an afternoon of crab feasting. The all you can eat crab special used to be available on Sunday but now it only runs M-F. We lucked up and they offered it on the Sunday we visited. We paid $48 per person for 2 hours of unlimited medium crabs. The crabs while tasty were on the small side. You also get 2 sides and the Maryland crab soup. I enjoyed the brussel sprouts and hushpuppies. From what I remember it was cheaper a few years ago which was rather disappointing. If you have an appetite for crabs and can eat atleast a dozen it may be worth it considering the price of the all you can eat was the same as a medium dozen of crabs.

This place was recommended to me by a friend, since we were out of towners visiting the DC area. Since we were driving through Maryland we definitely wanted to have Maryland crabs, and what better than all you can eat crabs?! This place is hands down worth the drive. Great crabs in old bay seasoning and they even give you crab soup and two sides with the all you can eat special. I belive it was around $39 per person? Don't quite remember, but it's a sweet deal. Definitely have some good sweet tea as well. We sat outside and it was a hot day, but we got there in time for the sunset and it was cooling off. Great views by the water and an ice cream shop a few steps away. If I am ever passing through I will definitely stop here, even if it's off the path a little ;)

We took a seat at first floor. Nice view there, but deck is definitely better. Crabs and shrimps are very fresh and spicy, but claws and mussels doesn't worth their price. Cole slaw tastes good also. We ordered mini bucket and half dozen crabs for three people. However, waitress didn't tell us oyster was not available until bucket was served... I should say, just go for steam crabs in Aug...

Harris Crab House has taken the place of Cantler's as my favorite waterfront crab house. Located just a few minutes into the Eastern Shore, the restaurant is right on the water, and most of the dining room has a beautiful view of the water. There's a main dining room, and outdoor bar, and an ice cream shop. The menu is traditional Chesapeake fare and is well-executed. In addition, the prices are substantially better than at Cantler's. Example: Cantler's $31 soft shell dinner came with 2 crabs and frozen fries. At Harris, your $25 entree gets you not two but four soft shell crabs, hand cut fries, fresh vegetables, and cornbread. The crab cakes are excellent, and if you're there in-season, you'll enjoy local Chesapeake hardshell blue crabs which are well-priced. The extra drive definitely gets you some extra value. The food is always fresh and I've always had great service.

Classic Maryland crabhouse with fresh crabs and tons of seafood (fried and otherwise). Great location on the Bay with indoor/outdoor seating. Huge place, always busy even on weekdays. Great day trip from D.C.!

There are several places in this area for seafood. I was glad we picked this one. It's on the water so you get a nice view while you eat. The prices are reasonable for this sort of place. Some are market prices, but still a good selection to choose from. I got a steamed sampler for $17 and the portions were good. Our server was quick and thoughtful. They had an extensive beer selection if you don't mind it bottles. The draft selection was small. The tables and dining area was clean, despite all the seafood parts flying everywhere. The bathroom ... was gross. That loses a star from me.

My Yelp friends have gotten this one correct. The food here was quick and outstanding. We had fried clams, soft shell crabs, alligator bites and hush puppies. All were tasty and delicious! Easy place to get to on the way home from the Delaware and Maryland beaches and right on the water for a nice view.

So unfortunately this place was one of the worst serving experiences and salty-ist crabs we've ever had. Some of the crabs we had were clearly dead before they were cooked. Which left a sour taste in our mouths after the already slow and unattentive service. We had a great day at the beach and wanted some food after all the fun in the sun. Google all you can eat crabs and harris popped up. It sounded great. We got there at 7, were told to seat ourselves and promptly waited 15 min for our server to come over. We finally ordered our beers and 3 crab feasts. Then waited 10 min for the beer and 30 min for our first tray of crabs! We watched 1 table get their apps and entrees, and another table get their second tray of crabs before our first tray of salty crustations arrived. The worst part was that you could tell our server was ignoring our table. I'm not sure if she forgot or the kitchen got weeded, but we were only ever told they'd be out shortly. Nothing was done by our server to sooth the situation, and so by the time we got the crabs none of us really wanted to be there. But we'd had too good of a day, so maybe the crabs would save the service. And in some respect they did. They were big meaty crabs, but only after 2 or 3 the salt in their house seasoning was over powering. In the end the manager was trying to be nice but really, the evening was spoiled long before I called for his assistance.

Reviews seem to be hit/miss here but I can say we definitely had a wonderful experience. You can get seafood anywhere in this area but Harris was no doubt some of the best I've had in years. Softshell crab was killer and even the little things are VERY well made (corn, hushpuppies). It was the kind of meal I ate WAY too much of because I really enjoyed it. Sit out on the deck for a splendid sunset (see photos I posted). Only complaint is that they did not have any decent beers to accompany my excellent food! last note: honest sizing for crabs!

When people say "God bless America" I think of places like this. When I finished my meal, I told my SO that he should bring me back here for my birthday just because it was that good. I love unpretentious restaurants that are first and foremost about the food. Portion sizes are ridiculous- if you order any of the "platters" they automatically come with two sides regardless of whether or not its advertised. We didn't know about the insane amount of sides so we were like "apple sauce I guess??" because we were running out of ideas of what to get for sides. Get the hush puppies! I don't even like hush puppies and these were bomb-diggity. They even give you butter for the hush puppies like your arteries aren't hardened enough from the melted 4 oz container of butter they plop with your steamed seafood. I went about trying the hush puppies with the solid butter packets they provided and then realized they just gave me a half cup of melted butter why am I spreading butter on a hush puppy when I could just dump it in melted butter, AMIRITE GUYS? And they serve the "northern style" sweet cornbread which I am all about. Sweet cornbread all the way baby. I had the two lb snow crab platter because it was only 4 dollars more than the 1 lb deal. So good. I have not eaten snow crab for years and this was just off the hook. This is not the best snow crab I've had everrr but they were delicious nevertheless and at a decent price point. And the crab cake was fantastic! It's not jumbo lump but it is mostly crab with little filler. Shrimp was tasty, oysters were tasty, scallops were tasty. And the malibu bucket drink- wow! A little over 11 dollars- that's the price I pay for *one* drink in the DMV. I started to regret it after we were halfway done (it does have like 5 shots in it...)

If you're in Kent Island, this is a great place for seafood. Do note that not all the seafood is locally caught. I got the (1lb) Snow Crab Leg platter with two sides. I went with the hush puppies and corn on the cob. For a pound, you get two clusters. The crab legs were very meaty and can be pretty filling with the sides. However, if you are really hungry, it probably will not fill you up. The hush puppies are really good too. You can get it as your side, but they also offer basket portion. The corn was sweet and not overly buttery. Sit outside on the upstairs level. You get an amazing view of the marina, especially when the sun is setting. The server was friendly and attentive. They have All-You-Can-Eat crabs on weekdays.

Perfect place to stop and eat great food!!! We ordered raw oysters, mini seafood bucket, baby back ribs, and crab dip was amazing!! Our waitress, Barbara was very friendly. Price was fair $72 total. Definitely recommend this place! The oysters were fresh and had good size. I love their signature seasoning, it's similar to old bay. The mini bucket was perfect size for one hungry person but could feed two. It came with 2 medium crabs and I was able to order an extra 2! BBQ ribs were really tender but they could put a little less BBQ sauce, IMO. We sat down on the upper deck(outside).

We go to Harris Crab House once every year to feast on Maryland blue crabs. It's our go-to place because of their "all-you-can-eat" crab deal. Despite the "all-you-can-eat" deal, they serve pretty good blue crabs...and you can eat a lot of them. The restaurant is located right next to the water, so the view is pretty enjoyable. Eating crabs with beer in the hot weather is also fantastic. Unfortunately, their deal is getting less juicier and more expensive. For example, they used to serve shrimps with their deal and the deal was a lot cheaper. Now, the "all-you-can-eat" deal doesn't come with the shrimp, but with two cheap sides. They also charge $50 instead of $40 (not sure of the exact price). We've been going here for five years, so our "tradition" won't change any time soon. But if they keep jacking up the price... we might stop going. Definitely give it a shot.

I've been coming here for years. This is my #1 place to eat crabs. Most of the staff is friendly and attentive. I think I've had maybe one bad batch of crabs since I've come to this place (like 10 years now). My only complaint is the price of crabs this year. $75 for a dozen large seems a bit out there. I'm not sure if this is now the going rate for Maryland, hope not! Scenery, ambiance, and the food are great, you should check it out.

Outstanding meal! Stopped by here on our way back from Bethany Beach en route to DC. Alec, our waiter, was very friendly and gave great recommendations. Sat outside by the water and punished a mini bucket. We plan on returning before summer's end for the all you can eat crab feast.

I have never taken to expressing my dissatisfaction with any business publicly because I try to understand that each business is trying their hardest and sometimes people just have bad days. However, my experience at this restaurant cannot be expressed as any less than appalling. I am more shocked than offended in how an establishment can think it's okay to treat a group of customers the way they did. Their servers offended us from the beginning, making it obvious they did not want to deal with our large party. As a bigger group, I can sympathize with their hesitation, but at the end of the day we had contributed an enormous tab of $600+ so it was for their best anyway right? Our servers started off friendly, Mandy and Soraya. It honestly wasn't until we got our bill that we questioned why we were being charged for 4 extra crabs. The server curtly responded that what was delivered was charged but we all went around and held each other accountable for the number of crabs that were ordered and eaten. No matter how many times we did, those 4 crabs were never ordered nor delivered to our table. When we tried to explain this to Mandy, who was the one to take our order, she expressed clear frustration and went back to get her assumed supervisor. A supervisor would be assumed to be someone to quickly take care of the situation or at least try to professionally approach the customer. He rudely asked us "how can you all be sure how many crabs you ate?" ....how could we not be sure? Did we not personally crack them open? We tried to calmly explain to him again and he cut us off by rolling his eyes and scoffing and repeating their apparent mantra "whatever was charged was delivered". One of our members then questioned if he thought we were lying and he shrugged and when we asked if he wanted us to just pay for it out of frustration he replied "I guess not" and a sarcastic "have a nice nap" by slapping our corrected check back onto our table. Again, I have never EVER been pushed to write a negative review on any public site since I've worked in public service, food service specifically, for several years. But I have never experienced such treatment from any establishment. I would like to take a moment to praise the food, but suggest a revision in the management or at least training thereof of customer service. Disgusting.

Such a great hidden gem located right on the Chesapeake Bay. Small dive with delicious food and no pretense. The crab bisque is a must but calorie-conscious foodies check your food diaries at the door. Crab cakes have minimal breaking and are heavy on the meat. Menu has many options for all those shellfish lovers. Oysters, po boys, soft shells, and steamed everything. Only downside is that the menu needs to streamline itself. Tex-Mex fish tacos, alligator on a stick, and too many fried options of fried options.

Went here for Mother's Day with my mom, sister and the fam and to be polite, the service sucked. In fairness to them, every single person from the Eastern Shore was there to eat at the same time but they were definitely not prepared. Waited 90 minutes for a table (no reservations accepted) then one person at the table got their food 30 minutes before everyone else. Then the rest of us got our food, which was "OK" ( and I am being generous) except my sister, who never got hers! We asked 6 times and were told "it's coming"- finally got a manager who confessed it was never ordered. Thanks but no thanks! Defiantly will not be coming back.

Good food in a casual atmosphere. Service (Beverly) was excellent and friendly. Stopped in on a lark on our way from D.C. to Philadelphia; glad we did! Huge menu to choose from. I had the lobster grilled cheese and it was super tasty. Other items offered at the table (and enjoyed): soft shell crab po boy and the fried seafood platter. Would definitely stop in again if we're ever back this way.

Two waterman feasts and one steamed combo. Everything was really good including the service. The waitress even laughed at my dads corny jokes. They have an all you can eat crab night for like 30~~ bucks! Really good imo. I prefer this restaurant over this other restaurant in kent narrows.

Was in here after shopping into area and this was a damn good idea. My wife and I split the Malibu Punch Bucket and the three pounds of snow crab legs and a half pound of shrimp. BEST DECISION. It was well worth it and it was enough for the both of us. Dessert, oh dessert. I ordered the home made nutty buddy. YES IT WAS GOOD. The service was awesome and kept checking on us, but you know how people are when they eat, we are good until we are empty. All the staff were awesome. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area.

Phenomenal view outlasts the seafood. Tasty meal but suprising lack of knowledge of local fish by server considering the restaurant. Veggie soup had meat in it: party foul! Still. ..the views.

This place is *exactly* what we wanted. My husband wanted crab legs and shrimp for his birthday. Although this area is known for whole crabs--I knew we could find good legs too. We went on a rainy cold Saturday evening around 8 and walked right in--no wait. Aside from our appetizer coming out only minutes before our meal (not a big deal) I have nothing but positive things to say. We had the cream of crab soup sampler (excellent), crab dip (good), and the crab leg platter (2 lbs). Legs were hot, meaty, good size and fresh. We ate SO well!! Husband also had the nutty buddy and said even the ice cream tasted home made. Folks should be aware that small parties are typically seated with others at large tables. Not an issue for us but may catch some off guard. Fantastic spot-- we will definitely be back...with the whole family next time.

We find every excuse we can to stop by Harris's for some delicious steamed crab. I have always received great customer service here! The servers are very attentive and make sure you're taken care of. I really appreciate that they replace crabs that aren't very heavy or aren't up to par, no questions asked. Any time I've had a bad crab its been replaced with one twice its size. I'd also like to give a shoutout to Tee, the last server we had when we visited last weekend. She really went above and beyond and I don't generally see that much these days at restaurants. My boyfriend and I were very impressed and appreciated how attentive she was to our table. Overall, a great place to eat! Reasonably priced and perfect every time. I would recommend Harris's to anyone.

Was there yesterday and had a dozen crabs, crab cake (which was gone in a couple bites) and the popcorn shrimp. The food was great. Service was horrendous. The waitress barely came around and drinks took more than 15 minutes. We ordered iced tea - no alcohol. Place wasn't busy, she had a total of 3 tables. Won't be going back anytime soon.

Never heard of this place till a coworker mentioned the phenomenal seafood. I was tempted to order the Oyster Buffet but decided otherwise because it was too much food to have for dinner. I ordered a seafood broiled platter (scallops was large and juicy), came with a small cup of soup. Everything on the platter was very tasty and the seafood was very fresh. Our waitress, Stephanie was very attentive and promptly took care our request for additional sauces or refills.

Had aligator on a stick for the first time and to my surprise it was very good. Very well seasoned although everything else seemed over seasoned. My green beans had a lot of pepper and was a turn off. Crab dip was very oily not much for texture it was grounded very fine. Tuna steak sandwich was over seasoned as well, and apparently a medium rare looks a lot like medium well. By far the worst part was the service. Unbelievably slow. The waitress admitted she accidently drank my water when i asked for it a good 12 minutes after she took it to refill it. The 3 tables around us were also looking around and complaining about drinks. Overall there was no sense of urgency from any of the staff members. I like the laid back atmosphere just not when it comes to the service that I'm paying for. From getting seated to getting serviced very sub par.

Absolutely wonderful meal and service. The fried flounder was hot and flaky. More than I could eat. Fried oysters hot and delicious. Raw oysters were larger and clean. Homemade Nutty Buddie was huge and cold. Simply perfect meal.

We travelled from CA to WDC, rented a car and drove over the Bay Bridge. (not my favorite bridge) I overruled my spouse and selected Harris based on Yelp reviews. Sat down and consulted with our waitress Mindy on what to order. I got one crab cake with sides and my wife 4 medium crabs. The beer/iced tea came fine as well as my order and we waited and we waited. As an aside, the crab cake was just okay, cole slaw weak, hush puppies fair. We asked Mindy twice re the crabs. Others who came later got their orders. The place wasn't even that crowded. An hour later, We had not gotted my wife's meal. Finally we said no thanks, time to go. Then the manager shows up and offered to comp the crabs to go. I told him I don't need cooked crabs in the car with a hangry wife. Just pick another option.

My wife and I ate at Harris' a few years ago and had a much better experience. I remembered the crab cake being around the same size as a slow pitch softball. But as I discovered yesterday, it's now way smaller than a hockey puck. And they forgot my wife's side dish and our server disappeared for most of our meal. The stuffed oyster appetizer is really nice. But otherwise, mediocre food and poor service.

Traditional-style Eastern Shore crab house. The decor is simple, but the food is very good, and the prices are reasonable. During the season, I highly recommend checking out the oyster buffet, on Friday nights.

I got the soft shell crab, it was ok but small. Waitress was nice service was good.

I came here twice in one week. The food is really good but the service is horrible. I had the buffalo shrimp, which is amazing. The Brussel sprouts are to die for. The negative about this place was the service!!!! We had a party of 14 and two people didn't get there food until tons of complaining and over 30 minutes after everyone was finished eating. I think the manager handled it poorly and didn't come over to apologize. I would have given this place 5 stars if the service were better. Poor service and poor management will kill a restaurant.

Went to this place on 8/31/14 we had a server named Mia. She seemed like the most racist white server I've ever had. She was so attentive to the table next to us which were all WHITE! My table was mixed and she was rushing us. "Ok is that it?! Wtf? I wanted to change my sons order and she said it was too late to change the order..... I've worked at restaurants before and it's NEVER too late to change your order... We spent over $300.00 in that place and were never going back. If you are going there for the "all you can eat crabs" go on the weekdays And all crabs are not from Maryland they are imported from other areas. When you order fried they give it to you in a. Measly cup that holds like 10 fries. The only good thing here is that nutty buddy ice cream I suggest you try other crab spots before you go here.

Good crabs but crabby wait staff. A fine location but frustrating service leaves you cold. I would say the food here is quite good. The Maryland vegetable crab soup and the fried crabs are all great. The location on the water if you can get to sit on the upper deck is first class...even as the traffic whizzes by on the Kent Narrows bridge it's a lovely spot. The reason why I am giving this place a one star merely is the appalling service. After getting seated I had to wait 15 minutes for a ditzy waitress to come by and say sorry she had missed me. Then she did not serve us water. She brought out soup and then took about 10 minutes to return with crackers. I got up and got them myself otherwise the soup would have gotten cold. The other waiters seemed to be milling around but otherwise being unhelpful. When my entree finally came, I asked for hot sauce, but it took 10 minutes. It's a shame because the location is good but the service is spectacularly poor. For those of us used to attentive service in average restaurants, this place sucks.

Steamed shrimp was delicious, as well as the corn. Baked potato was good. Unfortunately, the salad dressings tasted store bought, and the cold slaw was slathered with too much mayo. But good overall.

AMAZING. I wish I lived in the area so I could eat here all the time. We stopped by this gem on our way home for a weekend getaway. Our server Laurie was super attentive and sweet. There were some things that they were out of but other than that everything was perfect. We all got the snow crab legs and steamed shrimp. Everything was to die for. Also, the portion sizes for the sides are huge! I got asparagus and I am used to 4 stalks max, my plate was overflowing with them. The cornbread that comes with the meals is also delicious. We will definitely be returning if we are ever in that area!

Harris Crab House is a fun place to come and eat fresh steamed crabs! It's an open air casual atmosphere and I like sitting in the lower level because of the water views. Bud lite, Coors lite, Miller lite, Yuengling, and Shock Top was on draft on this day and a pitcher of beer with the crabs is always good. The price of the pitcher was decent too and the all-u-can-eat crab special was $38 including MD crab soup and 2 sides i.e. hush puppies (one of my all time favorites here), corn on the cob, cole slaw, french fries, onion rings, broccoli... There's a variety of good seafood on the menu too as well as other foods for those who like other than seafood. You will find something good to eat here at Harris. Every time I have come here, the waitstaff has been excellent. We always have gotten our refill of the fresh batch of crabs at the right moment, and our drinks were continually coming. Last but not least, I want to commend the homemade nutty buddies for dessert. They are huge and so very good. I love this place. Harris and their steamed crabs make summertime in Maryland a happy and memorable event!

Seems like great fun people in a relaxing quite atmosphere ,lots of stuff to look at , disappointed that can't get fresh crabs from the bay there not in season..

Let me start off by saying I am already planning a trip back!! We got a seat upstairs out on the deck and it was a beautiful day. The crabs were heavy and awesome. I think they put something in there seasoning that makes you wanna come back for more! The crab seasoning is one of a kind for sure. I got the AYCE crab feast that comes with two sides for $38. I choose hushpuppies and fries. Funny because I LOVE hushpuppies and usually look forward to drawing them in butter and eating them with my crabs but this time the crabs were so good I forgot all about the hushpuppies LOL I didn't want to get full off of the hushpuppies but I did try a few fries. They were pretty good. Next time I am going to get corn and hushpuppies. I ordered 4 refills and each time there were 4 - 6 crabs on the tray DECENT SIZES every time. I saw quite a few people eating ice cream after they were done feasting on crabs, mussels, oysters BUT I was too full to try it. Maybe next time. HOWEVER, of course I made room for the good ol malibu rum punch to help all of those crabs I was cracking to go down :-) YYyyuuummyy! Try it! 5 STARS FOR HARRIS!!

I absolutely love this place, will be a place embedded in my heart, the food, the company, the memories. After a shopping splurge, came here on a date night with daddy and it was AWESOME! B+: Ambiance: your typical crab house, reminds me of Phillips, Ambers and so forth. I love that it faces the bay but we were there at night so we couldn't see. A+: Soft blue crab - oh goodness, it was battered and fried to perfection! Just the right amount of sodium for yours truly....sodium queen :) A- : MD Blue Crab Cakes - if it's blue and from MD, it's bound to good! However, they could have done a little better on the seasoning, more old bay? haha A+ : Alligator Tails - this was the HIGHLIGHT of the night, daddy spot this and we were just joking because neither one of us ever had alligator, I decided to be bold and ordered. Taste like tough chicken! The citrus flavor was very tangy! I love the flavor of the meat, dad loved it too! F: Homemade Nutty Buddies: Uhhh it's just a really giant ice cream drumstick, damn it. Overall, one of the best date night ever :) I shall be back!

Visiting from California, I'd give this place 4 stars for their prices. 1lb Crab Legs + 2 sides= $22 Lump crab imperial + 2 sides =$29 My friends ordered 2 dozen large blue crab for 3 people and it ended up being way too much! But I believe it was a good deal. Wine is served in a plastic cup :/ Hush puppies are edible but not great. All of our sides were delivered after we already started eating the crab which is weird. None of the hostesses or wait stuff were awful but not memorable either. I went with a big group who happened to be super fun, we wanted crab, and we got it. Tip: go for the crab and expect little from the staff. Ice cream next door is also cash only.

Rosemary C.

The main reason for the 2 star rating is there soft she'll crab has like no meat in it at all. For the $$ you pay, you'd at least expect to have a little more meat to eat. However their cream of crab soup is AMAZING. i would come back here for the soup definitely. Don't waste ur money on crab, oysters, clams. TERRIBLE!!! Shrimp was ok.

Harris Crab House was recommended to us. It reminded me of a seafood place on Cape Cod. You could eat inside or outside. We arrived around 3:30pm on a Saturday and the parking lot was full. We decided to eat inside since it was hot outside. Once seated it took our Server 15 minutes to appear. The Server at the next table had stated she would go get our S 10 minutes earlier. Our Waitress never apologized for the long delay. I also noted other tables seated after us receiving their drinks and food. We got the hush puppies - they were quite yummy. We also got broiled crab cakes. They were good; I was surprised we did not get a slice of lemon on the plate. At the end of the meal Sally stated she was working in 3 rooms. Maybe this is why she forgot to give us our check.

Crabs where small,cold,very little old bay and smelt like low tide and that's just the crabs.....I've had better service at Dennys We waited 2 hrs for a table of 12 AFTER the waitresses complained about not wanting to wait on us(who I personally would have left $0 too but my wife made me) it was by far the worst experience for my family...crabs in Florida are better then here.

Rob B.

One year does not a a crab house make, every season can be a different experience. Staff move, sometimes ownership, but Harris's has to be one of the most consistent crab houses on the shore. Unlike the rest the service at Harris's is over the top! I say this because at most crab houses you can die at the table. The crabs are awesome and I have NEVER had a reheat. When we have hit a bad patch, a mention to the server can get you a replacement. We tend to visit in the 3rd -4th week of the moon. Knowing the crabs will be heavier.

Leigh W.

I'm giving the four stars for the value for money snow-crab. $26.95 for 2 lb of snow crab cooked perfectly and served with drawn butter and one side. All the crab deals looked excellent value and lots of fun! It's a very casual crab shack environment (although there is seating inside upstairs) and most often packed in the summer. The rest of the menu is pretty standard fair and would really rate more a 2-3.

Our waitress Laurie was totally awesome! We went for a casual supper on the weekend of our 25th wedding anniversary. Laurie was so bubbly and made sure our meal was perfect. The popcorn shrimp appetizer, snow crablegs, hush puppies and corn were delish! Try the Nutty Buddy for dessert :)

Jason V.

Came here because it was the highest rated place. Staff was friendly and service was quick, but the food was not that special. Crab cake was ok. Steamed Alaskan crab legs were cold at the body (almost frozen still). I did enjoy the hush puppies and corn bread. Got a homemade nutty buddy for dessert. It was frozen to the point it felt like I was going to break my teeth biting into it.

We arrived on a hot Sunday early evening around 6:30. The parking lot was nearly full, but we were seated right away at a nice table within their large restaurant. I was disappointed by the service, as it took a while for anyone to acknowledge us. I found the waitress to be friendly, but not helpful to us first time customers. We ordered a lot of food and beer, including soups, appetizers, crabs, crawfish, hush puppies, and oysters. They all came out too quickly, and all at the same time. The MD Vegetable Crab Soup (red) was okay, but the Cream Of Crab soup was horrible and had to be exchanged for the other soup. The server didn't seemed surprised. The Alligator skewers weren't enjoyed by some, but I liked them. However the seasoning was way overpowering, and all I got a sense of was its chewiness, not its taste. The hush puppies were good. The crab meat was delicious, but the seasoning they coat them with is overpowering. I'll ask for it to be lightly sprinkled on if there's a next time. Pounding crabs is a lot of work for a mediocre reward, and after 3 I was tired of doing it. The oysters weren't very good or well presented. We had much better oysters elsewhere on our Chesapeake trip. They were out of crawfish, and didn't tell us until after our other food came. Overall, I felt like I was treated as a tourist, which I was, but don't automatically treat me as such. I was underwhelmed. At least the hush puppies were good.

Mark H.

Decided to stop here after a full day of crabbing. Since we only caught 6 crabs we bought them AYCE blues. First dozen were larges. Each 6 after got progressively worse. Small and then to what it seamed were reheats. The seasoning was wet and slimely on last batch. Two of us only went through 2 dozen total. And upcharge of 1.50 for side baked potatoes? When did potatoes get so pricey? Probably not worth returning. 3 stars because the waitress was very good at her job.

First experience with a Maryland crab house, and I loved it. Admittedly, I struggled in the beginning with my technique, and I still have a lot to work on, but it was so delicious and fun. We drove 45 minutes to get here, and 8 of us were accommodated to a cozy, corner table next to a view of the river. We order 18 Large crabs, lobster pasta, 2 orders of crab cakes w/ fried oysters, fried scallops, bucket of onion rings, crab dip, soft shell crab, 2 pitchers of beer, and some type of punch bucket. This was more than enough for 8 people....we all passed out on the car ride home. Everything was delicious. We'll be back.

Eliza B.

Amazing grilled rockfish! The snow crab legs were sweet and meaty. Hush puppies were crispy on the outside and caky on the inside, with just the right amount of saltyness. Our server, Beverly, was very friendly and offered great service. She was always on top of everything. We definitely plan to come back..again...and...again.
(5)
Rosemary T.

Had lunch on the outside deck since it was such a beautiful day. I ordered a beer and the fried rockfish sandwich. When it came to the table I was surprised to see two small tail pieces--dark oily fish and skin--breaded and fried... not the best cut of the fish to say the least! Kind of a disappointment after reading all the great reviews...

Anne L.

My friend took me here yesterday and I am definitely a fan. He and his family have been coming to this place for years. We had a dozen of the largest crabs they had. I believe they were the extra large ones. The Old Bay seasoning was just enough but not overwhelming. The crabs were definitely very meaty. We had a basket of hush puppies and an order of steamed shrimp and a pitcher of beer. We got there late afternoon on a Sunday and avoided the dinner rush. Definitely worth the trip from DC although it was an all day affair more or less. We finished everything we ordered and did not feel rushed. The staff is very friendly and we attentive throughout our meal.

Drove over the bridge because we wanted to sit out by the water. Got there by 1 pm so we could sit on the deck. The outside deck is open seating. You can sit inside and there are windows, but we wanted to be outside. It is very limited seating on the deck and only a few tables have an umbrella, so if you absolutely want to sit outside, you can go over to Fisherman's across the road. They have a lot more seating on the deck. Tammy was our waitress and was very attentive. We asked for only 6 crabs at a time and she was happy to do that. This way you are eating hot crabs. Also, the menu on the deck is limited so check the menu to make sure what you want can be served outside. We wanted onion rings and so we just ordered them inside and they brought them out. The cream of crab soup is good, but if you don't eat meat, you can't have the Maryland crab, it has beef in it. This is a problem for our daughter so just be warned. They only had medium and larges. We got the larges, which were on the small side, but very meaty and tasty and not a soggy one in the bunch. They are known for their homemade nutty buddys so make sure to get one of those.

Been coming here for years and it's normally been great. However, we had the worst experience this past Memorial Day weekend. Small crabs were being sold as mediums and when I asked the manager (said his name was Bob) about it, he was rude and obnoxious and acted like a total idiot. Don't know how the Harris family, who seem to run a great operation, can employ such a moron that obviously knows nothing about customer service. Somebody dropped the ball on that hire. As an fyi, I have caught and eaten crabs all of my life so I know that when a crab is barely above the legal keeper size that it's a SMALL no matter how you try to spin it.

I will start by saying that I was a tad disappointed. Maybe it was the hype, maybe it was my former attachment across the highway. Who knows. After an intense 3 hour workout, followed by hours of outlet shopping, we were ready to finally eat something! We all started with the clam chowder, and it was boring. I mean, what do you expect...It's clam chowder right? I immediately checked the restaurants website after tasting it, it states the following: "We encourage guests to try a sample of our soups as there are no refunds on soups." Hmm. Coincidence? Probably not. Oysters: Super huge and fresh! This was definitely the highlight of my meal. Definitely one of the freshest oysters I've had! Too bad the waiter did not know what kind of oysters they were.. :( Crabs: $52 / dozen (MP) Crabs were decent, the seasoning was kind of on the salty side, but they were still enjoyable and very fresh.

It's good the crab cake was good but not great. The Flounder was good also but bland needed some spice the same is true with the scallops. The view is great and the place is very clean. I probably should have tried clams and oysters.

(09/21/2013) Great place to get your crabs, Maryland-style. Not a fancy place, although maybe they're trying (a little too hard). Best to stick to the simple and classic fare. Steamed crabs here were the best we've had this season. The larges ($58/dozen) were dense and had very sweet meat; were lightly crusted in the house seafood seasoning (was mostly sea salt, paprika, not much heat) rather than the standard Old Bay or J.O. The non-pickers had a crab cake sandwich (pronounced "good") and the BBQ Shrimp (was wrapped in bacon and slathered in a sweet sauce) over cheddar cheese grits and a side of hush puppies (overly dense and bread-y). Had the homemade Nutty Buddy and Chipwich , both were good, but solidly frozen. Had to bite our way through our ice cream. The Smith Island Red Velvet was very good, moist, many layers, sweet. Service is serviceable, friendly enough. Location is on the water, next to the packing houses, view of the Bay Bridge and a fishing pier. Can be "quaint", can be a little trashy, depends on what you're looking for. Patrons are decidedly touristy (us included).

Ordered a dozen large crabs and feasted on these fresh crustaceans encrusted in old bay. Decently priced and meaty too. We also ordered a cup of crab soup, which was a bit too salty and a bit too dense. They could really water it down a bit for better consistency. We also ordered cole slaw, corn on the cob and french fries, which were all safely done well, but are difficult to mess up anyways. The finish was comprised of 2 ice cream cones. The stale waffle cone held a giant (when I say giant, I mean giant!) mountain of vanilla coated in hardened chocolate. The ice cream is really big so be sure to share it with 2-3 people. It was, however, a sad finale considering that it was super frozen, super big and tasted old.

Crabs GALORE! Literally stuffed myself with silly with sweet, succulent crab meat until I my hands were numb and my stomach could handle no more. Luckily, I was able to save a wee bit of space for some perfectly steamed peel'em jumbo shrimp (highly recommended!). Washed it all down with some dirt cheap margaritas and pitchers upon pitchers of beer, and called it a night. Really. Unbeatable. It's wasn't just how great the food was, but really the whole experience. Sitting out on the balcony on a lazy summer evening with the lovely view of the Chesapeake at sunset was the absolutely the icing on the cake. *note* Make sure you wear some dark or old clothes if you're going for the crabs. I warn you: it can get very, very messy!
(5)
Wendy C.

Holy Crabs! Large, I mean LARGE, succulent sweet steamed crabs. The Old Bay-like seasoning that are sprinkled on the shells is on the salty side, so you want to get just the right amount onto the crab meat to enhance its sweetness, without over-salting it. The crabs are priced by size. The LARGE we'd ordered are fairly meaty and big already, but there are 3 sizes above that (Extra Large, Jumbo, and Colossal) although not available on the day we went. Yes, I will be dreaming about colossally large crabs until I have a chance to return. We also had steamed shrimps; they were large and delectable, had the same seasoning salt as on the crabs. The famous nutty buddie dessert didn't make a fan out of me. The ice cream is frozen solid, too cold too hard to get a taste of. The restaurant is sizable yet cozy. Recommend you get outdoor seating on the upper level.....and enjoy the view.

Summer isn't summer without some crabs.... dozens and dozens of crabs. So what sets Harris Crab House apart? ALL YOU CAN FREAKIN EAT. For just under $30, Monday through Friday, you can get all the crabs you can eat + a half-pound of steamed spiced shrimp + corn on the cob. So it was, on our way home from the beach, that we swerved the short way off of Route 50 and stopped at Harris, located right on the water by the Kent Narrows bridge. Like the grand finale of every fireworks show, three of us capped off our camping trip in style... by feasting through four dozen crabs. Not counting the few hollow/nastified ones, I think we ate about 15 each. Dining on disgusting amounts of delicious sea critters just happens to be one of my special talents. I was actually surprised that any of the crabs had smelly hollow issues at all. Usually, when I've come to Harris, the crabs have been the freshest and meatiest, but this time there were a couple of bad ones in the bunch... it's forgivable though, because the remainder was of the fresh and meaty kind. The crab seasoning -- an in-house blend, not Old Bay -- was lip-stinging spicy. And I discovered that dipping the crab meat in vinegar actually tastes good! If you find you have room for dessert, their nutty buddies are yummy in a nostalgic ice cream truck kind of way. It's like a King Cone, only homemade. There's also an ice cream shop right outside the restaurant. Harris offers indoor and outdoor seating, and both have the authentic Maryland crab shack tablecloth known as the brown paper. Try to get a seat with a view of the water... it's Maryland culture at its finest. Though some will tell you to go to Cantler's Inn, I'm partial to Harris Crab House. The view is better, the place is roomier, and there's ayce. Just note... you need to have your full party with you to get seated. Also, if you'd rather feast at home, they do take large orders to go.

Overall: great crabs and corn, totally casual setting and super friendly,but a bit slow and disorganized, service ( eg meal came out in separate pieces, the 1 person in our group not having crabs waiting a long time for his food, the corn came way last). All along the waitress was super nice and friendly and we didn't mind. Great way to spend a summer afternoon!

(This visit was on Friday 9/7/12.) We walked in and got the impression that the staff wished we'd just walk back out again. It took us forever to wave down a waitress and get seated, and when we said we wanted to sit outside and see the water she just vaguely motioned us up the stairs to another set of hostesses who were busy giggling among themselves. If we weren't starving after a plane ride at this point we would have just walked out. The food itself was good, but nothing exceptional. I had crab cakes and an appetizer of the clams casino (I've heard of that dish, but never had it and was always under the impression that it was gone the way of the dodo and chicken cacciatore.) Our actual waitress gave us fine service, but the not-so-warm welcome left me unwilling to recommend this place.

Cant get enough of Harris Crab house place is open all year round! so not just a place for the spring/summer! Prices are good and food is fan freakintastic! Corn on the cob with old bay style seasoning on it is awesome! Pink Lemonade is off the hook Crabs were nice and meaty and not just filled with air, these things were pretty good! (Large size crabs) Shrimp was nice and tasty and not fishy like other places and pretty damn big! definitely happy this place is open year round!. Staff is supper friendly and attentive also which gets good ratings from me, plus the food is good. so all and all this place is top of the list for seafood.

Brought the family here with my parents during our visit from California. We enjoyed just about every appetizer on the menu as we wanted to try a variety of the seafood. We were very satisfied all the way around the table. Great place to visit as this is the third or fourth time we have been here and will return.

I suppose some people would find it ludicrous to drive nearly 90 minutes to have crabs, when there are perfectly mediocre crab houses a mere 30 minutes away. However, those people are obviously not foodies like my dear family. To my family, there is no distance too far for "good eats" (my dad has been known to go all the way up to NYC for lunch, then come right back home to Maryland)...and when prime seafood is the "entree du jour", not enough crazy $3 per gallon gas prices could keep them away (obviously, this was back in October). So, all the way from Rockville, I shlepped my hapless family (and extended family from LA and Taiwan), to Harris' for crabs. The "adults" (my parents, aunts and uncles) ordered from the menu, while the "kids" (my brother and 4 cousins) had the "all you can eat crab buffet". Now, when my family hears "All You Can Eat", we view this as a personal challenge to our family honor (lester k, I believe you will understand this like no one else will). It's not enough that we eat until the manager comes over as asks us to please leave...but we must eat to a point where an entire species is on the brink of extinction. So with this attitude - my brother and cousins attacked the "all you can eat" crabs, while I ordered from the a la carte menu for the older crowd. The 3 dozen hot fresh x-large crabs that I ordered for the "adults table" were meaty and hot and so incredibly sweet. Every crab was ladened with delicious and tender crab meat as only fresh Chesapeake Bay Blue Crabs can produce. The bucket of plain steamed cherry-stone clams were devoured a heartbeat, and my dad was scooping up the last remaining juices of the garlic mussels with empty shells. The oysters-on-a-half-shell were marvelously fresh, perfectly chilled and delicious. We ordered a side of hush puppies - and while everyone originally sneered at such a plebeian dish, the hot, sweet, crispy hush-puppies quickly lured my family into asking me to order another round. My brother and cousins faired a little less well on their "all you can eat" crabs. As often with these "all you can eat" deals, the quality of crabs were not up to the standard of the "adults' table", in that the crabs were small sized, and were not served steaming hot and fresh. Even still, my brother and cousins polished off 60 crabs, plus a plethora of sides (hush puppies, cole slaw, corn on the cob, potato salad, onion rings, and french fries) that the waitress kept bringing over in hopes of stanching the decimation of an entire crab colony. We ate until we were the last table remaining - and my brother and cousins could have still gone for yet another dozen or two, but at this point, my dad and uncles were ready for their next meal, and wanted to leave to hunt for more food. The wait staff was wonderfully funny and attentive. Our poor waitress did seem a little perturbed by the "kids table", as she nearly lost a hand when she took too long to set down a tray of crabs, but once our waitress realized that our two tables were not enough for one mere staffer, she had two other waitresses continuously checking up on us while she was running back for yet another round of crabs. So why the 4 stars? Because prior to our arrival - about 20 minutes before - we called ahead to get ourselves on the list. We had a large party (we had first called the day before, and they told us that they only needed a 20 minute warning to get us a table...and we took them at their word), yet, when we arrived, we still had to wait around for 40 minutes. Now, for some people this may seem normal, but my family doesn't wait - and we certainly don't like to wait for crabs. This has happened to me once or twice before here, so it really shouldn't be a surprise, yet it annoys me that when we pre-plan and call ahead to notify a restaurant that a large party is coming in 20 minutes (we were on the road, and let them know that), when they don't act upon it, and become "frazzled" when we get there! However, I do have to say, the wait staff was fantastic, and the view of the water with the setting sun couldn't be paralleled. My dad was so impressed (and he normally refuses to come back to any restaurant that has made him wait longer then 15 minutes), that he has stated that the next time he's in the mood for crabs - this is where he's coming.

First off, let me state that any bad choices in food are strictly my fault. Now, with that caveat out of the way Harris Crab House is an amazing seafood house, just on location alone! I always dread going to a seafood restaurant, mainly, because I know my bank account and credit card are going to take a big hit. The food here was by no means "cheap" but it was not unreasonable. We enjoyed mussels, clams, fried calamari, crabs, boiled shrimp, oyster platters and it came to a lot less than I had anticipated (dreaded). The calamari was excellent, crispy and not rubbery on the chew. The oyster platter was very good and the oysters tasted briny (in a good way) and sweet. The clams and mussels were steamed in garlic butter and damn near led to addiction. We ordered a second helping of mussels. The soft shelled crab was deep fried with a bread crust, which added to the flavor. We each had an oyster shooter followed by, what else, another oyster shooter. Vodka and oysters, helped make the sunset that much more fantastic. Now, to my caveat. KEEP AWAY from the all you can eat Ribs N Shrimp, it is a waste of stomach space. While the rib meat is of the baby-back variety, that quality is ruined by boiling them and then slathering them with a ketchup sauce. The shrimp were tasty, but we would have been better off ordering more clams and mussels, with lots and lots of the garlic butter sauce (screw the diet) and bread. I have already submitted my request that upon my return to the east coast Harris Crab House must and will be a food stop.

Stopped at harris again a few weeks ago. It was Monday around lunch and we really didn't know where else to go and had a couple hours until we got home. I have to say that the food was sooooo much better than on my last few visits. I really liked my soft shell crab sandwich and the fish tacos were delicious. The beer was still cold. I was so down on Harris before this visit, but they are back on my beach food stop list again. I like tradition.

Most of the reviews of Harris Crab House are spot on; if you are looking for a casual, seafood restaurant that specializes in crabs and local seafood, this place is your spot. My fiance and I decided not to order the regular Maryland crabs because we were in a little bit of a rush. Sara ordered a crab cake sandwich and I had soft sell crabs, my soft shells were decent but not stellar, slightly overcooked. Sara really enjoyed her crab cake sandwich so much so that I did not even get a bite. We also ordered vegetables as sides, broccoli specifically and I would not recommend anyone doing that. The broccoli that came out looked like mutant Broccoli that was tasteless. I had the hush puppies and they were good. Overall, the place was worth the stop but again think of hole in the wall seafood place, I do also agree with some of the reviews that the seafood was pricey than I thought it would be, so if you thinking this will uber-cheap hole in the wall this not your place.

We arrived on Mother's Day at 11:00 a.m. and were promptly seated (less than 5 min. wait) outside on the rooftop deck which overlooked the water and a drawbridge. Our server was in a great mood which also put us in a great mood! We inquired about the crab prices and ended up ordering a dozen of medium male blue crabs, a shrimp platter, a side salad, two draft beers and water. The salad came out first, very fresh (lettuce, cucumbers, grape tomato, & red onion) with the dressing on the side. They brought us the crabs next. Our server informed us that we were missing four crabs because "they felt that those were too light and they wanted to replace them with heavier crabs which were being steamed"! What restaurant does this? Most restaurants are like you get what you get - don't like it, don't come back. I was so surprised and pleased! The crabs were good, nicely seasoned. Some were better (heavier, fuller) than others. My rule of thumb is to always look at the "mustard" inside the crab -- if its bright yellow, its going to be a good crab. Some were yellow others brown and a couple were muddy and papershells. They said on their menu that they try to get Maryland Crabs, depending upon availability, but sometimes they get them from other places such as Virgina, the Carolinas and (I think) Florida. On the tables they have a box full of condiments - Crab Seasoning, Ketchup, Cocktail Sauce, Vinegar, Salt & Pepper, etc. I also asked for butter and some condiment cups which were brought out promptly. The steamed shrimp platter consisted of about 10 average size shrimp (I didn't actually count them), cornbread, and two sides of choice (we chose fries and coleslaw). The shrimp was perfectly cooked and seasoned, easy to peel. The cornbread was delicious and sweet. The slightly battered fries were hot and crisp and the coleslaw tasted (and may have been) homemade. If we didn't have to be back home [over the Bay Bridge] by 1:00 p.m. I would have stayed longer and ordered dessert. We packed up the leftover crabs and my son in law and husband finished them off when we got home. This restaurant is good for all types - small to large groups. All your party must be present to be seated. They have plenty of seating indoors and out. You do have to go up a flight of stairs to get to the main restaurant and if you want outdoor seating you have another flight of stairs to climb. They also have an small outside restaurant to the right of the main restaurant (they weren't open when we got there). Their menu has a large variety of options from seafood to steak. Reasonably priced. Our meal listed above cost $68 + tip. I thought that was pretty good for all we got. As I was leaving I stopped by one of restroom on the main floor to wash my hands. I thought it was kind of odd - its a room with two double sinks and separate stalls (completely closed in) in the back - one for Men and one for Women. It was just weird washing my hands with a guy in the bathroom. I guess I'm use to completely separate bathroom/sinks. Not really an issue, but thought I would mention it. Overall, this is a great place to go, its worth the drive - you should try it. Its right next to the Red Eye Dock Bar. I am looking forward to returning to Harris' Crab House very soon. When I do, I'll update my post.

Second year in a row I've come here with my office for an event. We rent out the outside area and it's just a great experience. The crabs are some of the best I've ever eaten. Juicy, full of meat, and just taste delicious. We also get the fried chicken -- which is also great. The breading is...I'm not sure how to explain. It's not super crispy, but the chicken is still yummy, and the breading doesn't TASTE bad, it's just not what you really expect for fried chicken. Steamed shrimp is yummy. Not too hard to screw that up though. The cornbread is AMAZING. I am usually not a fan of corn bread. I just hate super dry cornbread that needs massive butter to allow you to swallow. This corn bread is FANTASTIC. It's super moist and has almost a cake like texture -- also a tad sweet. It is nothing like a super dry corn bread that you can taste the corn meal (so if that's what you really enjoy, you probably wouldn't enjoy the corn bread here). It's easy to declare you could just have a meal of the corn bread here. And always end the meal with a GIANT homemade nutter-butter ice cream cone. It's HUGE. The staff are friendly and quick to refill drinks. (Again, I've only been here with large groups, so we usually have 2-3 waitresses devoted to our party, so this may be be a misconception t o usual dining). The one complaint I have is there are no "trash buckets" they put on the table for discarded scraps of crab. If you have 20 people crab picking at a table, some sort of bucket or ANYTHING would be nice to put the uneaten bits in. Creating massive piles in front you just gets messy. Overall a fantastic place to spend an afternoon eating amazing seafood. This is the real deal folks. This is the kind of place that serves real, delicious sea food.

Tehehehehe. I love this place. So much so that after I found out about it and my brother was coming down to DC for the Rally to Restore Sanity/Fear, I reserved a Zipcar to make sure he tried it. There's a place in CA that my family used to go to that was similar to this in terms of having a giant sheet of brown paper on the table as covering and let you go crazy in devouring the crabs, so it's like a trip down memory lane. First of all, the location is great, try getting there around sunset and a table by the window, it's gorgeous. Host and servers are very friendly and smile a lot. Get the crabs by the dozen - any more and it might get cold before you finish (large is usually good enough) - which is usually covered in just Old Bay (which actually makes it's fairly salty) and pound away with the hammer! POUND POUND POUND! It's so fun! I prefer to dip the crab meat in vinegar, not butter. It cuts the salt a little better. Sides: coleslaw, potato salad, and clam chowder all very good! Appetizers: they have alligator! Not a huge fan, but worth a try! Dessert: decent, nothing too special. To be honest, the food is actually a 3.5, but the location, people, and sheer fun make it a 4 =D

we had the waterman's catch and ordered extra hushpuppies.The crabcake was excellent....no fillers. Cole slaw made on site was fresh and good. Softshell, shrimp, scallops and oysters were really nice. The two of us shared this marvelous dish and then the hubby asked for a Nutty Buddy.

My parents threw the rehearsal dinner for my wedding here. The price was extremely reasonable and the service was excellent. We were given the upstairs room overlooking the water. A crab feast was an excellent way to bring everyone together. It is a very participative meal and allowed relatives from both sides to get to know one another. The marylanders helping the visitors how to pick crabs. I will definitely use Harris for my next large gathering.

My wife and I have stopped there several times over the last few years and it is everything you would expect out of a good non-pretencious restaurant. The cream of crab soup is fantastic and the crab cakes aren't too shabby either. Even when they are busy the service is always good and everything is always fresh and very flavorful.

Kathleen C.

This is a fine place for fun and crabs. The steamed crabs were very good for early in the season- sweet and delicate. The service was outstanding for our party of 10. Eight people ate the all you can eat crabs which are plentiful & served with 1/2 pound of steamed shrimp and fresh corn on the cob. Our waitress kept our drinks refilled and the crabs coming all evening. Usually all you can eat crabs are not very good and you are given a time limit, but not here. Check it out when you are crossing the Bay Bridge on your way to the Eastern Shore. Call ahead because they don't always offer all you can eat crabs.

Harris is the place for crabs. After reading reviews from two of my friends and the bounty of other reviews I decided I would give this place a go. I mean...ALL YOU CAN EAT CRABS plus 1/2 lb. of shrimp and all you can eat corn for $28.50 does not sound like a bad thing. Prior to our going, I warned my family that we needed to go in clothes that we wouldn't mind getting dirty, for those that have not been crabbing before you will get dirty. There will be pieces of shell flying once the action gets started. After a peaceful commute, straight on Rt. 50 for about an hour we were there. As we pulled in, a bus, a charter bus full of people pulled in as well. Seemed like a sign of a good place to go eat. We sat down took a look at the menu but already knew what we wanted. The waitress seemed to know as well. A few moments passed while we waited. To pass the time, my mother stepped out on the balcony and took pictures of the Bay and we enjoyed the view. Not too long after the waitress returned with a dozen crabs on a plastic plate with individual baskets of shrimp and corn for each of our party. We also had fries. We dove right in. The crab was house seasoned which was a bit spicy and salty(sort of Old Bay-ish). I enjoyed mine with the melted butter that the waitress provided readily. After about two and a half hours we were filled with crab, a bit of shrimp, a cob of corn, some fries and ready to go. The fries were unnecessary and frankly nothing special. I feel next time I will not order them. The shrimp that came with the crab feast provided a different texture and easier picking after all the crab cleaning. My hands were tired after those two and a half hours and there was no room for dessert.

Zagat says..."If you're "into crackin' crabs", "get down and dirty" and "dive right in" to crustaceans piled high "on paper-lined tables" at this "rustic", "unpretentious" Kent Narrows seafood house that's "all about sunny days on the deck with a cold beer" "watching the boats slide by"; P.S. "save room for their homemade Nutty Buddies." I would have to agree. This is a get down and dirty place to get crackin. I went last week with a big group of colleagues and the wait was long and the bar was tiny and SUPER busy. We sat outside and ate so much I am not sure how I walked out of there. We had onion rings, steamed shrimp and fried oysters to start. Then trays (and trays) of steamed crabs followed by corn on the cob, fries, hush puppies. This place is not fancy (the crabs come out on fast-food type plastic red trays and all drinks are served in clear plastic cups) and you WILL get messy (don't wear white or anything you would be upset with if it got ruined). And, go for a Chipwich or Homemade Nutty Buddie for dessert.

Harris Crab House was a great spot as usual. The only complaint would be not enough stomach to eat all of the seafood.

Denise W.

Went here for my Da's bday...it was OK. Definitely meant more for tourists. It is very casual with brown paper on the tables for a crab feast. It was cool and windy outside but people were sitting out there to eat and our table was right next to the door so we kept getting blasted by cold air everytime the wait staff went in and out. Our waitress was friendly and service was good for the most part until she got a very large table in another room and got diverted for a while, but no problem. The kid's ice cream must be scooped out ahead of time and put in a really cold freezer since it comes out hard as a rock...not ideal for the little one who wants to eat their ice cream. The crabs were good but the other food was mediocre. My food came out lukewarm and everything is in disposable plastic cups and plastic plates. I doubt I'll return. It's pretty loud in there which is to be expected in a crab house.

Diana N.

came here to pop my 2009 crab eating fest last week. well worth it!! the crabs were of decent size and only 1 of the 24 were inedible. we had about 4 people in our group and 2 dozen was justttt right. i know i know..."only 24??" but we also ordered a dozen raw oysters, corn, hush puppies...so it was a wide spread :) this place is kinda far...im sure there is somewhere closer to where i live but the ambiance and the service here was awesome! our server kat was at our beck and call and didnt roll her eyes when we wanted about 5 refills of diet coke or even when we spilled slimy oyster juice all over out table and needed a table cloth change. i def recommend coming here if u are coming with someone who has never eaten crabs, this is a great setting, especially when u are seated outside. not too pricey either about $30 for a dozen. cant wait to come back!

We went here a couple of Saturdays ago and completely forgot to write the review. 3.5 Stars from the group experience, but since I do not eat Seafood, I am rating this from how much my friends enjoyed the food and how much I enjoyed the non-seafood selection. From my experience I give this place 2 stars as the BBQ chicken (only non-seafood entree in limited area) was one of the worst entree I have eaten in a restaurant. The folks that do eat crab had a good time. They enjoyed the extra large crabs and mussles. They also enjoyed the cream of crab soup very much as it was extremely rich (a sample size was enough for them). Finally, my friend was extremely happy with his Shrimp which were oversized :) Remember if you sit outside near dock, you will have a limited menu with no fried food. Personally, if I were to make a trip out this way, I would go to Cantler's while my friends might wanna go here and my fiance would be impartial.

Stopped for lunch on recommendation. This is a brown paper on the table crab house. We didn't have crabs but tried some menu items. Service was fine but the server seemed like she was just going through the motions. NE clam chowder was tepid (a food safety issue), salty and a gelatinous mess. I give it an "F". The hush puppies were cold and hard as rocks. I give them a "D-." The corn bread muffin had the consistency and dryness of a brick. It too was cold. I give it an "F." My wife's steamed shrimp was fine. My crab stuffed flounder was way too salty. All in all we were disappointed. This place needs a kick in the behind.

Gabriel L.

I tried their seafood sampler (broiled crabcake, scallops, and flounders) and it was so-so. I do enjoy their casual atmosphere. Perhaps I should've tried their crabs instead because that's what everyone else was getting.

Loulou P.

Reasonable priced and not as crowded as MIke's in Annapolis. The crabs are perfectly seasoned and fleshy. Not that far from the bay bridge. A nice casual restaurant when you want to let your hair down.

Scott B.

Was here for business and wanted an old fashioned Eastern Shore tourist dining experience and that's exactly what we got (and I don't mean this in a negative way). Harris' has been around for a long time and knows how to please with excellent crab cakes and mountains of fresh crab. And the location, right on the water, can't be beat. My only disappointment was the crab dip which came in little bread bowls about the circumference of a silver dollar. The presentation is interesting, but it makes it difficult to share.
(3)
A H.

This is a great restaurant in a great location. It is also the more casual but good option, with the 2 neighbor restaurants nearby either fancy/more pricey, and a loud music spot. So Harris is "just right." I had a mix of a few items including I think flounder, a crab cake and scallops - each were really just perfect, and as they should be! The veggie sides were fresh, which is not always the case when the seafood is more the central item. And the view over the water can't be beat. This is also a great spot to stop between Delaware beaches and DC.

Sarah S.

Yay for my first review! I've heard about Harris for a long time now but refused to drive such a long ways for something I could eat at home. But I finally did it (probably because my dad was driving) and I was very, very satisfied with the crabs. It wasn't even peak season yet the crabs were heavy and filled with the delicious, sweet meat. SO YUM! The seasoning was a bit different than what I am used to...it almost looked like a mix of Old Bay (my friend whom I love) and coarse sea salt. It can get a bit too salty if there is too much on your fingers, but still oh so good. I was told that I HAVE to try the hush puppies, and the hype usually ruins it for me, but I wasn't disappointed! Don't even make me start on the sweet white corn on the cob...I'm getting hungry! When you order a pitcher of beer they'll bring out a cup of ice with it. Just drop the cup (with the ice still in it) into the pitcher...it keeps the beer cold without watering it down! What I WAS disappointed in: clams and shrimp. I just don't know what to say about them.... My family and I found a little ice cream place right next door...Harris Ice Cream or something. The ice cream was your typical stuff, but the scoops were GINORMOUS. I don't know if it's just because the people working there didn't know what they were doing, but it was all okay with me. Just get ready to roll up your sleeves and make sure to soak in the view of the bay while you're there (we finished dinner at sunset which made my experience all the more yummy). I definitely want to go back....now, who wants to drive?

D S.

This place was great! I took my mother and aunt there to celebrate my mother's birthday and I know we sat there for at least three hours! It was the best. The crabs were hot and full of crab meat. The half pound of steamed shrimp were good too( even though my mother kept stealing all of mine after she ate all of hers) The waitress( Stephanie) was very attentive and we did not lack anything . She was right there before our ginger ale was empty and had a full platter of hot crabs ready before our last crab was done. I highly recommend this place to the crab lovers out there. I will be back.
(5)
Laura J.

Fabulous. The service was the best I have had on the East coast since I moved here 10 years ago. If Stef happens to be your waitress - you are in for a real treat. She was friendly, attentive and courteous. The prices were much better than others in the area. I tried the cream of crab soup and it was great - added a little old bay and yum. Also had the mussels, oysters and the crab dip. Only issue we had was cutting the bread for the crab bowl. I will definitely be back again.

Let me preface this by saying, I am not exactly a foodie or really picky, but do like good food and go out to eat often. Long story short, Harris Crab House is OVERRATED. FIrst off, their wait times are NOT accurate. They told our party of four twenty minutes...we were not seated for an an hour and twenty minutes. We were seated upstairs, inside. Our appetizers were popcorn shrimp which was very soggy, rubbery, and not the least bit crispy. The portion was a nice size, though. We also had onion rings as an appetizer and they were nothing special. I had the bbq shrimp....(grilled shrimp, wrapped in bacon served on a skewer) and it was VERY salty, but pretty good. My husband had the scallops and bbq chicken combo, which was also ok. Another person had the soft shelled crab sandwich and it was WAY TOO fried and also soggy to the point it was almost unedible. Our other person in the party ordred the ribs and chicken combo and requested NO BBQ sauce (since he had been there before and did not like the BBQ sauce). It came with bbq sauce and it was promptly sent back. After about 25 minutes of waiting, the waiter came back and said all of the ribs and chicken already had bbq sauce on it. He settled for a shrimp salad sandwich and it was bland. The fries were cold on everyone's plate, except for the shrimp salad. The corn bread was very dry. The cole slaw was good....probably because it's not homemade! The nutty buddy is also nothing to write home about...it is big, though and can certainly be shared. I had to BEG our waiter to bring us water....maybe there is a drought that I am unaware of. All in all, not impressed. Will not be going back....

Harris Crab House is awesome. My husband and I found this place in March 2011 and we've been back MANY times. We're originally from Texas, so anytime our Texan friends come up to visit, we take them to Harris Crab House for an East-Coast-Crab-Eatin' good time. I can honestly say, the food has never been disappointing. We will always get a dozen steamed crab and we normally always get snow crab legs. Both are awesome and a must-get. As for appetizers, when Crawfish are in season GET THEM--not only are they delicious dipped in butter, but the experience alone of eating Crawfish is worth it. Also, the Cajun Mac and Cheese is incredible and something we've started ordering every time. A pitcher of beer is about $11, not too bad. Lastly, this is BY NO MEANS a fancy eating establishment. It's very low key--paper on the tables (eating Crab is messy business), plastic utensils, part of your dining experience requires crab mallets and sea-food knives, etc.--- all in all: an awesome, unforgettable and delicious dining experience.

justin p.

Great location right on the water. Good crabs and good oysters, and you have to love the homemade nutty buddies for dessert (be forewarned, they are big!). Can be VERY crowded at high season and the service isn't always the best. I've eaten here probably 2 dozen times, and only once was the service atrocious. But sometimes it can be inattentive (I drink a lot of tea and need a lot of refills!).

Christie W.

I was definitely impressed with Harris Crab House. Me and the boyfriend made a stop on our way home from the beach on a Tuesday afternoon. The decor is fun, definitely gives you the feel of an authentic crab house. Located right on the water just before the bay bridge. They have an upstairs and a downstairs dining area. We thought we wanted to eat upstairs outdoors on the deck, but after about 2 minutes of waiting for our server in the heat we opted to move inside. They have one of my favorite beers shock top on tap so that was a huge plus. We ordered 1/2 a dozen oysters, and 1/2 a dozen jumbo crabs. They were some of the meatiest and biggest crabs I have ever had. The seasoning they offer is one of the best I have ever had. It was spicy and salty and mmmmmm just thinking about it is making my mouth water! The prices here are some of the best around. They are less expensive than some of the competition. We finished our meal with one of their home made nutty buddies! They were delicious! I will defiinitely be making another trip out to Harris's Crab house before the season is over!!

We took my mom here for Mother's Day and had a fantastic time. The place was hopping and they had people directing traffic in the parking lot to make that easier. The main parking attendant was super helpful with getting us a space close to the door (my dad's in an air cast right now) and helped us back out later since we had 2 large vehicles parked on either side of us. They said the wait would be about 45 minutes (which I thought was very reasonable for mother's day!) and it actually didn't take quite that long. We were seated upstairs inside and had a decent view of the river from our table. Our waitress wasn't as attentive or fast as I may have preferred, but she also had tables outside so I was a little more lenient than I normally would have been. The food took a long time to come out, but again it was mother's day and when it did finally arrive it was fantastic so I'm not going to complain about the length of time we had to wait. Everything was hot and well flavored and came out just as ordered. The pricing was about what I would expect for seafood and I would definitely go back. I highly recommend to anyone on the western shore looking to take a quick trip over the bridge on a Sunday afternoon for good atmosphere and good food at a decent price.

I started a new job a little while ago, and it consists of a lot of traveling. I heard about Harris Crab House from yelp, and decided to give it a try while driving through. When I entered the building, there was a nice view overlooking the water; although the greeting from the employees was less than lackluster. I sat down and ordered some fried oysters and two blue crabs. My waitress was actually quite nice and helpful. The fried oysters were really good (first time having them) and the crabs were really tasty, lots of Old Bay seasoning. After finishing and still hungry I decided to get a small bowl of oyster soup. I also got a small sample of the crab chowder after talking to my waitress. The oyster soup was good, not great. The crab chowder is really thick and tasty; however, there were small bits of crab shell in it that made it kind of annoying eat (*Note: the waitress did mention the crab chowder was a hit or miss depending on who picked the crab). Overall it was a good experience, and I would definitely return if passing through.

come git some md blue crab. lots of em. they got all u can eat or on a menu. why should u go? great service. great food. great location jst for seafood--waterfront. the drawback? yah, ya hav to drive past the bay bridge but it is worth. check out their web too for all-u-can-eat-oyster early in the season. i missed it. we went for it but missed it. so we settled on crab. good crab and good corn. we got pint of beer and sat for little more than 3 hrs. yah. no hurry to leave soon. all u can eat. yah, guys can get chatty to when drunk. talking to people next to us. this and that. other than the fact it is too far, it will be worth the trip.

Nothing says Maryland like Maryland crabs and Old bay seasoning! Whether you're visiting, or live in the area- Harris' is a great place to go to experience it! If you get the all you can eat crab special, you get a corn on the cob and 1/2 lb of shrimp (the shrimp is delicious!). In my opinion, this is the best deal since you get all the crab you want, which is good since it they don't come with much meat. I read a couple other reviews that complained that it's a lot of work, so they gave Harris' less stars because of that. But c'mon, it's not the restaurant's fault. That's just how it is with Maryland crabs. It's just as much about the experience as it is about the taste. If you don't like to work for your food, try one of the other meals on the menu. They offer other entrees and sandwiches for the less adventurous people. But if you're looking for a Maryland experience, this is the place to go. Be prepared to get messy and the Old bay seasoning smell stays on your hands! But it's a lot of fun and the food is good!

On our way down from Philly to the Eastern Shore, we stopped various places for food/gas, etc. and asked where the best place for crab was and Harris's was unanimously recommended. True to the recommendations, the crab cakes and all other crab related foods were fabulous. We sat out on the top deck and had the real deal Chesapeake Bay experience. In fact, I stopped on the way back home to buy their crab seasoning and unfortunately left my wallet there and didn't realize it until I was back in Philly. Every single person that I talked to about getting back my wallet was so helpful and lovely and by noon the next day, the wallet had been FedEx-ed back to me, completely intact and at no charge, although I offered to pay. So the food and ambience were wonderful and the people who work there couldn't have been more amazing. Fabulous all in all!

Visited Nov 2012: it's casual, kid-friendly, moderately priced, and tasty. Service was good. On a nice day, you can sit with a view of the water.

stopped for dinner after a successful day at Dover Downs Casino. the food was across the board seriously good! Margi had cream of crab soup which she raved about. myself a half dozen raw oysters. i got Combo Crab basket with One Pound King Crab, One Pound Snow Crab, and One Half Dungeness Crab Served with Steamed Red Potatoes and Hush Puppies. Margi got the Stuffed Shrimp which the menu said was 5 but she took home 4 after eating about half the dish. we both agreed the hush puppies were the best we had everf eaten. we got Nutty Buddies to take home with us and they stayed frozen for the ride home. Our server, Kim, was attentive and friendly. a very nice experience!

My husband and I love this place. We ate 1 dozen Large crabs, and they were true to size. The crabs were heavy and tasted great! My husband had the peel and eat shrimp. We have been coming here for years and never had a bad meal. Save the best for last, they have the best homemade Nutty Buddies. This is a true crab house, so if your looking for fancy dining, this is not the place.

We hadn't been here in a couple of years - and decided to stop off yesterday for lunch en route from the beach to DC area. It was great! We were seated promptly. The service was courteous and attentive - we had Heather as our server - very nice and fun. Yes, you must wait a bit for your food to be delivered, but good food takes time! At our table there was Lobster Mac and Cheese (stunningly good), Broiled Crabcake with Fried Oysters (just spectacular), and Softshell Crabs stuffed with Crab Imperial (gotta love a crab stuffed with crab!). The sides - cole slaw, potato salad, onion rings and hushpuppies were all great (I don't even like hushpuppies - and these were really good!). Bottomless pink lemonades for the kids and ice-cold (albeit not bottomless :) Fat Tire on tap for the grown-ups. The food was really, truly great! The dishes tasted like they were individually and carefully prepared to order - not mass produced. We sat downstairs (inside with a/c) as opposed to upstairs (under awning - NOT air-conditioned). The atmosphere is fun with lots of things to keep you (and kids) visually entertained while you are waiting for food. We plan to make this a regular lunch stop when we go back and forth to the beach. Well done Harris Crab House!

Excellent food, quick service, and a casual/fun atmosphere. I have brought out of town family here numerous times with many a positive reaction. This is what you'd expect a good crab house to be. The restaurant is nothing special in appearance, but it is exactly the kind of laid back place you'd want to spend hours picking crabs in.

Mitchell L.

What can I say was bad about this place? Nothing! Actually, other than its odd, seemingly-in-the-middle-of-nowhere location, nothing! The food was fantastic, the service was great, and oh ya, the food was fantastic! Although the time I went, they didn't have any fresh blue crabs in stock, they had their blue crab house chowder which hit the spot on that cold night I went. The appetizers were great and came out quickly; their crab-stuffed rockfish was overflowing with stuffing and packed with flavor; the steamed crab legs of the different variety were fresh and clean tasting. I can't believe the amount of food we ate, and how delicious everything was -- and they didn't even have what I went for! I can't wait to go back, and the next time I'm in the area, I will be sure to FEAST on those blue crabs they're so famous for.

Foodlover B.

I am generous with the two stars. This place was awful. The crab soup was a thick glob served luke warm, it was nasty! The crab cakes had no flavor, had to sprinkle their salt all over it. The sides were fast food quality, nothing memorable. The employees were sitting down and just waved us to a table, they were so uninterested in being there. Such a bad vibe!

Clarence J.

Harris has a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and the food is excellent . . . although I was focused on the steamed crab and shrimp, so I only tried the corn on the cob other than that. But the lone person at our table who ate other things, including the "award-winning crabcake," was suitably impressed as well. (She said she wasn't quite sure about "award-winning" in this area, but it was definitely "an excellent crabcake with a good amount of meat.") The price is great and there's plenty of room in the place for large groups. I'll be back -- there's a HUGE menu, including alligator-on-a-stick, left to try!

Jennifer H.

Went there for dinner and sat in the open seating bar outdoors. It's really a great option if you're there for the steamed seafood only. There was no wait (compared to the 25 min restaurant wait). The food came out quickly (you can watch them steaming your food). Three of us ordered a dozen medium crabs for $35. They were meaty mediums and I was surprised at how filling they were. The crab chowder was also good but was super thick. It tasted much better than it looked.
(4)
G. B.

So here is the deal with Harris'. The place is basically worth 3 stars. If you are going to crack crabs and drink beer for hours, add a star. If you are going to sit on the deck, add a star. Otherwise the food is overpriced and the service is slow.
(3)
Craig H.

Always a great place to dine. We've checked out most all of the crab places on he eastern shore. Harris has great food and nice ambiance. You can whack your own crabs or have them put it in the best cream of crab soup around. The other entries from fried oysters to crab cakes are tops. My ownly complaint is the seating can be tight so go there for the food and hope for private conversatoin.

Very good crab check...with the important things....butcher paper on the table, a sink in the dining room, etc. Convenient to several Eastern shore towns, and not far from Annapolis. Recommended.

When in season, the all-you-can-eat crabs is a very good deal. Just for the crabs alone, it is a good value. However, they give you so many sides, corn on the cob, hush puppies AND.... fried chicken. I look forward to their friend chicken equally as much as the crabs. A must try. Waits can get long, 60-90 minutes.

Such a different type of place for me so everything was shocking haha. Interesting location! Plastic silverware and cups and then that rolled paper put on the table really gave a different atmosphere. Not bad by any means, but enough to make me remember the place haha. Of course....very copious amounts of crab legs and sides which put me into a food coma. I had to try their alligator appetizer which I've never had before and it was yummy. Haven't had alligator since then, but if anyone ever offered it to me, i wouldn't be afraid to try it. Really informal place with nice staff and good food. No complaints!

S S.

We had a beautiful evening. Johnny was our server and he was great. They have an all-you-can eat crab special for $28. You get medium crabs, half pound of steamed shrimps and corn on the cob. We should have opted for it but we ordered larger crabs for $65 a dozen. They weren't much larger than the medium. Our bill was well over $100 bucks. Overall it's a lovely location and we were pleased.

This was only my fourth time crabbin' so maybe my non-antenna eye is not as discerning as some born-and-bred Marylanders, but I found Harris' to be top-notch. The bf and I ordered a dozen large crabs (roughly $50) with the proper sides (hush puppies, corn, fries, onion rings?) while the couple we were with ordered all-you-can eat. And man did they. They also had a Belgian white called Shock Top and we crushed about five pitchers of that. Total damage: $165. Frick yeah!

Melissa M.

This was my birthday dinner. I loved all the food! We order lobster, a crab cake and crab legs-all were terrific. I have to agree with everyone about the hushpuppies, they are perfectly done. The potato Saldana was great too. We did not try dessert, as we were just way too full! The service was a little slow which is why I gave them 4 stars and not 5. Overall the food made the slacking service unmemorable. We will definitely go here again even though it is an hour and a half drive from where we live.

Be prepared to get down & dirty.....ok, get your mind out of the gutter damnit. Let me preface that it's nothing like having sex, but damn, eating crabs comes pretty close to it. Can we say orgasmic? Mmmmmm....delicious, juicy, tender, meaty, fresh NEVER frozen crabs!! Kudos to you if you can tell that it's not frozen. They weren't kidding when my friends said i absolutely must try Maryland crabs. Now I see what all the hype is about. The crawfish was pretty kick ass. Gonna have to pass on the oysters next time...who was i kidding? they were BLEH. A pitcher of beer & a dozen fantabulous season of mating crabs later..... no crab was left behind.. .. all that stood was butter that turned into good ole' solid fat. Uh...yeah...don't think i'll be dipping my crab in that tub of lard next time....it was great by itself and their special seasoning. Shit. definitely no room for dessert (HOMEMADE nutty buddies????) though I was heavily tempted...i was way too stuffed. And who can say no to sitting outside by the docks, watching the sun set, in perfect sense weather? mmmm.....

Super cute local place. We went here after a wedding so we looked super over dressed (this is the shorts and flip flops crowd). They have a great crab deal and they seem to have a lot of really local fried items. We got the crab cake and the soft shell crab entrees. Both were slightly too salty but we got a cheap pitcher of beer and so it went down well and we left happy. This place isn't super revolutionary but it is great for what it is.

Cesar P.

The wife and I found this place thanks to Yelp, after a trip to Annapolis. We figured if we were in the area we would find good crabs. Totally not disappointed. Excellent crab cakes with a good selection of beer. The hush puppies were delicious (my first time having them). The place wasn't too hectic (we went at the beginning of Spring, when the weather was OK, but not great) so it was a nice pleasant dinner. The place is a little hard to find, which would be my only complaint.

Crissie H.

I think that the atmosphere and location take the cake! Food was ok. Best bet is to order the CRABS. I ordered mussels in garlic-butter sauce. WAY TOO SALTY! and I like salt. Great place to take visiting guests.

I'm giving it a 4 star because it gave me a taste of home. I haven't had TRUE Maryland blue crabs in a long long time. It's a reminder of childhood. The first crack and bite of the crab meat - I was a kid again. So funny how certain tastes/smells can take you back in time! So thank you for that! One gripe I had was....they only had medium sized crabs available!! We were ready for the large/XL crabs - but we had to seriously work for the meat. I wanted to convert my boyfriend to loving blue crabs - but after that, dungeness & king crab still have his heart. He did say the seasoning was good! But he was still hungry afterwards. The scenery is beautiful - we were able to see the sunset on the water.

If you're looking for a nice quiet dinner by the water- this is not your place. If you're coming with family and or friends to have a relaxed dining experience with great food, excellent service and a dynamic view (water as far as the eye can see), you need to be at Harris Crab House! I went for my birthday last year and I am dying to go back! The seafood was excellent, enough said!

A dozen raw oysters, creamy crab soup and crab cakes. A great meal. It was happy hour so we got some nice discounts on apps and the Fat Tire draft was only $3.50. Service was good too.

My husband and I have been enjoying crabs at Harris for many years. Recently we decided to make the 1 1/2 hour drive out there for lunch. It was awesome as usual. We got a perfect table outside on the upstairs backporch. We sat in the gorgeous sunshine and watched the boats go by while we dug into our ginormous luscious crabs!! The service is always great and we're never disappointed with the food. Definitely a Top Fav!
(5)
Josie M.

Its a busy, cute and casual place where the friendly staff doesn't rush you. The crabs are very good. Okay, this is a non-food issue here, but I have to mention it. They do not recycle their plastic drinking cups. After an outside table leaves, they wrap everything up with the used butcher paper tablecloth, and throw it in a trashbag with all the food garbage. The garbage bags are tied together without any separation of recycled items; our table was right in front of the cans, so I couldn't help but watch this go on. The amount of plastic environmental waste this generates is enormous. This is completely unnecessary Harris Crab, and it really irks me.

Matthew R.

Right now, all you can eat LOCAL steamed crabs, corn on the cob, and 1/2 lbs of steamed shrimp for $29.95. I think the deal is good for Monday thru Thursday only. Go now! I mean right now! With the gulf oil gusher limiting crabs from the gulf, it won't be long before the local supply is running short and prices sky rocket. Get this yummy deal while you can!

1 hour drive to a picnic table with a little wooden hammer. I'm the opposite of a crab aficionado. I think I've had crabs like this maybe...2 or 3 times in my life. The crabs here were so good! We tried the other seafood...stick with the crabs, I didn't really care for anything else. I finally found a place in Maryland that has the best crabs! Go ahead and plan to spend part of the day here, there is an outlet mall just down the street. I have no idea if any of the other places are good for crabs. No 5 stars because the other seafood was not that great, and I saw a small dead rat in the parking lot while I was leaving...might wanna sweep your parking lot, Harris.

When my fiance and I are meeting up with my fiances Dad and Step mom we often meet at Harris Crab House. It is good, you can grab a table on the deck which over looks the bay. Crabs are good, not too big and not too small. We ordered shrimp, pretty happy with the shrimp. I for some reason had a craving for a hot dog. The hot dog tasted like a hot dog made at home in a pan of water. Would recommend this place. I like this area because there is also shops within walking distance. Beware pretty busy and parking is hard to get on the weekend.

Harris crab house was the recent destination of a family get together. We were told that we couldn't be seated until everyone in our twelve member party was actually there, they were slightly flexible on this which was great. Our group was sag downstairs at long tables covered with brown paper in a true crab feast style. The open room was very noisy but kind of lent to the 'there's something going on in here' atmosphere. The menu had many items including.g steaks,ribs,crabs,crab legs,shrimp,mussels,oysters,several types of clams among other items. There were many different items ordered by our group. I was interested in crabs but decided against them because of the price. I opted for the fried waterman platter,which for $28 had two sides,shrimp,oyst ers,scallops and a very nice sized, delicious crab cake! Everyone seemed pleased with their food but it was difficult to hear comments since it was so noisy. Things were a bit on the pricey side but considering the prime waterfront location,not surprising. The service was a little slow but everything eventually made it's wayt out. Our waitress did a thorough job of checking what was ordered was what actually made it to the table and had to make several adjustments. Drink refils were difficult and slow because of the crowd but once pitchers arrived at the table, this was solved. Although the service was a little slow, our waitress seemed to maintain a good attitude during our meal! Several Yelpers said that the nutty buddies were fabulous. Although I personally didn't get one I was told that the ice cream and toppings must have been combined before being sent to the blast freezer making them hard as a rock once they were served in a plastic bag. I would recommend Harris Crab House to any size wanting to eat seafood in a nice waterfront restaurant that tends to be rather loud.

Drove all the way from NoVA to eat here. Wasn't sure exactly what we were gonna order but alas after such a long drive we figured it was only appropriate to load up on MD blue crabs. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon with baby in tote. Parking seems like it's a bit of an issue since there were two guys positioned outside to make sure only patrons park there. We sat inside but in retrospect it might have been better to eat outside since the weather was fairly nice and less noisy, which means we might not have had to spend four hours switching off to lull the baby. The first batch was piled with tons of SALT, with a dash of seasoning ;) Seriously though, I think their seasoning is more salt than actual spices. The salt was definitely overpowering. Definitely not a place for people with high blood pressure!!! We asked for no seasoning since the table already had a shaker full of it...even so...they still had quite a bit on the bottom. Not sure if our special request had us waiting longer for more crabs but they all came out hot! Some crabs were large and some were a bit anemic but for the most part they were medium sized and meaty. At first I had to ask our waitress about the best technique and eventually I learned, but do yourself a big favor and YouTube "how to eat blue crabs" before going. At first, I wasted an inordinate amount of time trying to pick out every miniscule morsel of meat, but after several crabs you begin to realize you're only getting hungrier after all that work. Now I know why they give you 1/2 lb of shrimp and AYCE corn on the cob. I'm glad I did it and it was a neat experience to see how high we can pile up the crab carcasses but IMHO the juice isn't quite worth the squeeze. Snow crabs are just so much more rewarding for so little effort. Anyway can't wait to come back to do it again, but it'll probably be a while. Thanks for the fun experience and great service. Later we stopped by their dockside icecream shop, used a coupon from their website, and enjoyed their frozen chocolate covered softserved cones and two scoops of some atypical flavors. The icecream was okay, but the shop needs a facelift. The inside does not look inviting at all.

Great location. Mediocre crab cakes - which in Maryland means they were totally unacceptable for a restaurant. The service was slow. I like to take a break along the water as I travel to/from the eastern shore. I will not go back to this place. There are much better places in the vicinity.

Susan F.

Went here with some crab lovers. I am not a big seafood eater. I must say I was impressed with having a variety of non-seafood items on the menu. I ended up getting a steak...which was cooked a little more to my liking. It was better than I expected since I was at a place that specialized in seafood. The people I went with got the alligator appetizer and really liked it. One of them also got the all you can eat crab and really enjoyed that. The outside seating was nice... Oh and the dessert....I had a brownie cake with raspberry ice cream filling. I think someone could easily twist my arm to go back there just for a slice of that cake. Mmmmmm..... :)

My husband suggested that we go across The Bay for Sunday dinner and we invited two friends along. When we arrived there were several people in line and I thought that this was going to be a LONG wait and we waited only twenty minutes! Our server was great and had Fried Green Dill Tomatoes, Crab Bites and Crab Dip as our appetizers. Dinner was wonderful. Our dinner arrived quickly and was delicious and we definitely drive from Catonsville to Stevensonville again!

By far, Harris Crab House is my favorite place to go for hot steamed crabs! My group sat on the deck outside overlooking the water. The menu is limited for outside seating, but what we wanted was steamed seafood! I was the only one who had the crabs. While large crabs are priced at $48/dozen, you can order them individually, which I did. I'm a slow eater, so four or five is my limit. If you're a pro at crab picking, they have all-you-can-eat crab and shrimp on the weekdays. Two of my friends had whole lobster and two had steamed crab legs. Everyone raved about their meal. The lobsters were huge! And I thought my large crabs were larger than other places I ordered from. Our service was friendly and provided helpful choices to those debating over the snow or Alaskan king crab legs. It is a seemingly quick drive; just a bit past the Chesapeake Bridge. Highly recommended!

We have been driving to Harris' from Fairfax, Va since 1996. We loved the cream of crab soup and it was the reason for the long drive just for dinner! Unfortunately, our last 3 trips have been disappointing. The soup recipe has drastically changed for the worse! It was always thick with crab and now has less crab and more thickener. It's ok, just not worth the trip anymore. Along with the soup we would share the Watermans catch and an appetizer...not anymore. Hardly enough to feed my hubby much less both of us. Portions smaller as are the scallops & shrimp. Raise prices, don't lower your standards. Well, we have had a great 16 year run and now it has come to an end. Sad. Will miss my 2 favorite oyster shuckers.

This place could use a makeover....however, friendly service and decent food. I was planning to try the crab however didn't have the patience to crack them open nor find the stomach if I ran into any bad ones...so I ordered the broiled rock fish when I was told that it was local. fish seemed fresh...tasted bland though...at least it didn't taste fishy! The corn on the cob was surprisingly good for this late in the year...yummy with butter! And I had yummy hush puppies and cornbread. I tried a sample size cream of crab soup...and found it disappointing...little flavor...too much shell...and very flour pasty...no taste of sherry. It was so thick that it did not resemble soup! Glad I only bought a sample!! The view from the restaurant is the water on the right side of the bridge facing toward the west. Beer on tap is limited to American cheap beers.

Me. tray of hot steamed crabs, corn, and 1/2 lb steamed shrimp. Heaven on earth ... for $30. Sometimes I even order the cream of crab soup with an extra shot of sherry. Mmmm. In case you can't tell. I love this place. It's two levels and has great views of the bay. The servers are really nice and there's usually plenty of space to spread out and crack away. The AYCE is available M-F, $30 for AYCE crabs and corn, and 1/2 lb steamed shrimp. Prices for drinks are also pretty reasonable, but why fill your belly with liquid when you can be feasting on crabs!? Mmm, I think I might have to go again soon!

Two dozen large sized steamed blue crabs with just the right amount of spice and saltiness. Four cream of crab soup samplers. One dozen fresh raw oysters that just melts in your mouth. Three pounds of steaming hot snow crab legs. Half dozen corn on the cob. Two orders of onion rings. One order of hush puppies. One order of cole slaw. Four orders of Unlimited refills of soft drinks. 95 degrees heat wave with a slight breeze from the bay. One pack of Marlboro Lights. Evening dinner outing with the long time best of friends. All this for $200 = PRICELESS

I can't really vouch for the food here. I come for the soup. The crab soup. The cream of crab soup. I have found it to be, time and again, the best, creamiest, butteriest, crab lumpiest delight in all the Chesapeake. When I lived in Annapolis, any time I had visitors from out of town, I brought them here. Proudly.

crab cake was ok, but its not maryland crab meat. its imported. the large crabs are from louisiana, which is ok because you cant get jumbos in maryland. the stuffed shrimp was ok too. the crabs unfortunately were not complete full of meat. the crab house's atmosphere is to die for; this is what a crab house should be.

Yahoo! I had wanted to eat real Maryland blue crab since my son started the University of Maryland. His graduation was the finale of my long awaited adventure into the realm of the crab world. Not entirely a crab virgin... It was my first time for the blue crab. My son had told me that eating the blue crab was an experience... much more than just sitting down and filling up. I was warned that it could be difficult and even dangerous because the shells were sharp. The five of us ordered different plates and a dozen or so of crabs. The meal did not disappoint me. By the time we were finished there was "stuff" all over the paper table cloth. My daughter in law was beating the poor little dead crabs "to death" with the wooden mallet. I had just finished the fisherman's plate with fried oysters, fried scallops, crab cake and soft shell crab and oohh the hush puppies...mmm. I topped it off with a pitcher of beer...yes, just me ...the others drank too much the night before! The waitress was helpful and funny and was always there to re-fill the drinks. I have to say I followed my daughter in law's lead and beat some of the little buggers myself... good times. I want to make it perfectly clear...There was plenty to eat although it was a weekend and no specials are offered. I loved all of the food...I have to say though...a big deal is made of the Maryland crab cakes and as far as crab cakes go ...I guess these were some of the best. I just don't like crab cakes. My mom used to make Salmon patties that I liked better...same principle...different species. One interesting thing happened. When we were going to the car after shopping the boardwalk for tourist stuff...I noticed a man in a room under the crab house sorting the crabs. I asked how long he has been doing that. He asked "today? or forever?" He explained how he sorts the crab by size and for freshness, etc. I asked who he was and he said (his first name) Harris. "I'm the general manager." I thought to myself as we were leaving... now there was a man that probably could be out on a boat in the bay...sipping on martinis or whatever...but he spends at least 5 or 6 hours a day sorting crabs so his customers get the freshest daily catch served up by some of the nicest people around. No wonder it is one of the most successful crab houses on the Maryland shore...and I was pleased to have my virgin... blue crab... experience at his place!

From reading about Kent Island in various newspaper travel sections, Harris Crab House is one of the restaurants that consistently make the pages. Following the mentions, we decided to check out Kent Island and stop off at HCH for lunch. It's fairly easy to find (we drove up from DC) right off of Rte 50, Exit 41. The restaurant is situated right on the marina, over the water and is a part of a small strip of stores and bars. On arriving, they told us that there is both inside and outside seating, but that we can't order fried foods if we sat outside, which is what we wanted to do. They allowed us to order one basket of fried oysters anyway, so long as the majority of our orders were steamed. We then proceeded to order raw oysters, steamed clams and half a dozen steamed crabs. The crabs are not on the menu, but they're probably market priced. Pricing on our visit was $48 per dozen for "large" crabs and $68 per dozen for "extra large crabs. We also ordered beers and a banana daquiri (yummy!). Everything was good as expected, despite the lackadaisical service. In the end, there aren't many places where you can pound away at crabs right over the water.

We went on Thursday for lunch. First of all, our waitress Susan was delightful! She went over the menu in detail. We ordered steamed shrimp, crab cakes, and a fish taco. I had the crabcakes, which susan recommended fried. I must admit they were good along with the crisp fries. I can't wait to try them broiled. Next were the shrimp they were greatly steamed and flavored inside and out! In all the food was good and I am looking forward to going back soon! The ticket was 40 something dollars. I forgot to mention I had a pitcher of Coors light! It was 10.06 by itself.

I'm giving the Friday night Oyster Buffet five stars for a few reasons. The all-you-can-eat freshly shucked oysters are out-of-this-world delish. I love that the buffet is almost all-oyster. You can have them fried, steamed, stuffed, in a casserole...and the chocolate cake and blueberry pie were very good. The oyster buffet is offered only during the MD oyster season but I like to go to Harris Crab House for lunch throughout the year as well. The staff is friendly and efficient. Great place.

This is what the Chesapeake Bay is all about. Beer & seafood at sunset. However, I'm knocking it down a couple of notches for two reasons: One, the quality and flavors are only so-so. There are definitely better crab shacks around, from a quality-perspective. Two, it's definitely geared towards tourists, and the prices reflect that. However...if you're a quantity-over-quality type of person, I have to share a short story with you. So they were running this special the first time I went there. It was some sort of all-you-can-eat oyster fest...(it wasn't on the regular menu). The price was somewhere in the high-$20/low-$30 range...I forget exactly. So I got that. Seemed kinda pricy, but I love oysters. First they brought out a bowl of oyster stew. It was adequate...no complaints. Then they brought out maybe 20 or so raw oysters. Then followed that up with 2 plates full of steamed oysters. While I was working on the steamed oysters, they brought me a dozen more raw oysters. Mind you, I wasn't even asking for refills at this point. They were just bringin' 'em and dropping 'em off at the table. In fact, I was actually starting to get worried. I mean, this was a ridiculous amount of food! My friend was giving me looks like he was saying "what in the hell have you gotten yourself into, man?!?!" Then they brought out 2 plates full, piled high, of fried oysters. Shortly thereafter arrived a plate full of some sort of baked oysters with spices and breadcrumbs (sort of like Clams Casino, but with oysters instead). At that point, I called Uncle on the whole endeavor. I mean, seriously...this was outta hand! I was starting to feel incredibly self-conscious having all of these plates and mounds of food literally stacked on top of each other at my table. In total, it must've been several pounds worth of oysters. I thought that maybe the waitress had screwed up and thought that my friend and I had *both* ordered the Oysterpalooza. But nope, when the check came there was only one on there. I felt like I had stepped in for Adam Richman during a filming of Man v. Food by the time I left.

Have been going to Harris about twice/year for 10 yrs, as we often travel the route 50 corridor to the Eastern Shore. Their crab cakes and seafood are outstanding; however, the sides (cole slaw, etc.) are very generic, and things like the rolls aren't topnotch. But the waitresses (I don't ever remember having a waiter here -- but the cooks in the back are male) are lovely and gracious, and the ambiance, with a view of fishing boats and leisure craft, is fun for adults and kids alike. I don't get dessert here as waitress admitted everything is brought in frozen from a food service supplier. However, the cup of ice cream which accompanies the kid's meal which my youngest child gets has always been fine (tastes like Edy's or similar). I think Harris would be even better if they were to start serving more serious sides with fresh vegetables, but at the moment it's canned/frozen/food service quality. Stick with the seafood, avoid the potatoes, so perfect for you low-carbers!

Best Crabs, Corn-on-the-cob, and waterfront atmosphere on the shore and Annapolis hands down! Never a bad crab in the bunch!!! I recommend that you end your evening with a nutty buddy ice cream treat. You will be a happy camper.

I last ate here 4 + years ago and had a great meal - so maybe my expectations were a little high - but I probably will not return now. Ordered 6 oysters half shell, got a dozen - I said OK but then regretted. Served on melted ice - pool of water with ice floating in it, one feeble lemon slice ( for 12 oysters?), and they were not cut away so was scooping with my dinner knife ( this last item may be a regional style - but every good Oyster I have had from Whistler to NYC to Florida - is served with the Oyster cut away from the shell - season to your liking - and slurp! . Shell pieces in EVERY one! (bad schucking) So I was off to a bad start. I order the Fried Combination ( Waterman's Catch) - the Seafood was all quite good - that is what you are here for - but after the oysters - I really needed to be wowed. Perhaps a little greasy - but not over cooked - the most common of offences. But the Hush Puppies - ugh - I took one bite and asked the server if they were frozen - Yes, inexcusable. Cornbread - cold - probably also out of the freezer - in general no pride here. My solo dinner came to $40 ( bar separate due to business travel & that was another ordeal) and there were definitely much more expensive options ( I did not see something like a Dozen Crabs - only AYCE - I think that was like $38 alone - so how this gets only "$$" I do not know.

I was introduced to Harris Crab House by a friend. I've been coming to Harris for the past 3 months at least twice a month. The crabs a DELICIOUS. I will never buy crabs in the city again. The prices are great!

As a Maryland native, Harris Crab House has been the go-to destination for Maryland blue crabs for my family, friends and EVERYONE I know since I was old enough to say "cwab." Everything about this place says "authentic Maryland crabhouse:" The table cloths are disposable brown paper, there are rolls of paper towels on the table, crabs are dumped onto your table on trays, and the restaurant is ON THE BAY. There are two main dining rooms, one downstairs and one upstairs, and there's also an outdoor deck around the perimeter of the second floor. Both floors have wall-to-wall windows so you have a great view of the bay from wherever you are. What can I say about the crabs? They're Maryland blue crabs, and in peak season, they are exploding with meat. There's an all-you-can-eat menu on weekday afternoons, so check it out if you can make it during that time. My favorite side of all time is the hush puppies (fried corn meal) that you can dip into your butter. The crab soup is also delicious and not to be missed if you love soup as much as I do. Ask for some lemons at the end of your meal to squirt into your hands to help get rid of that strong but wonderful crab smell :)

I went here with my parents and some friends after we ran the Baltimore Marathon earlier that day. Needless to say, we were very, very hungry and Harris's delivered. Amongst the six of us, we had a dozen crabs, 2 dozen raw oysters, 2 dozen fried oysters, 1 dozen steamed oysters, 1 lb. of shrimp, 2 orders of garlic mussels and 2 lbs. of steamed soft shell clams. And oh yeah, a couple pitchers of beer. Sadly, only two of us actually ran the marathon, so the other four people with us were just pigs.

I tried this place based on all the yelpers review and I am glad we went. We had the Seafood basket, everything tasted great, the crabs were a bit small but hey it is a combo bucket; good variety and portion size; also tried the lump crab cake, very tasty. Based on what I read on Yelp we had to try the hush puppies; though I am not a fan of these normally, Harris' hush puppies are quite good and I recommend folks give them a try. Service was good and the food priced reasonably.

Ok, more from the Thanksgiving weekend. So, if its one's first time spending some quality time on the East Coast, one must have fresh seafood, right? I really love good seafood and I could really get used to living out here, especially because you can get such good food for so little money. For four of us, we ordered up the steamed bucket with the mussels, clams, shrimp and crab plus some extra crabs. And of course a couple pitchers of beer. Pound through the mussels and clams while they're hot. Peel the shrimp...and start busting up the crab right there on the paper covered table. Nothing in the world like fresh seafood. Just keep that crab coming... All for around $100 for the 4 of us. What a great time... I'll have to get back in the summer to enjoy some time on the deck.

Went their with 4 adults and 2 kids in late July expecting a great lunch. 4 adults ordered crab cake sandwiches. Bread was wet and service was extremely poor. We waited 20 minutes to replace wet bread. Waitress needed to be reminded 3 times. Ketchup on table was empty and took 10 minutes for waitress to replace. Horrible food and service. Prices were expensive. I will NEVER go there again.

If you love to eat crabs, this is the place to go. I have been twice already. The second time, we came here on our trip back from Rehoboth, DE. No good crab houses there. We were able to be seated right away. And they still had Jumbo crabs if we wanted. We went with a dozen and a half large crabs. They came out almost right away. Steaming hot and fresh with Maryland style old bay seasoning. Of course we ordered a pitcher of beer with our meal. Delish is all I have to say. 18 crabs between the 3 of us. We did well. A little pricey but it was well worth it. Also ordered the desert, apple pie ala mode? It was pretty much frozen. Pretty hard to eat. So I do not suggest ordering dessert next time. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience I would recommend to my friends

Wow...just wow. I personally am an avid seafood lover and fresh seafood off the Chesapeake Bay....it can not get any better than this. From the soups to their main entrees it was quite phenomenal. Of course great seafood comes at a great cost so if you're looking for a place to eat and don't mind dropping the big bucks, this is the place to be.

One of the best crab houses in Maryland (AKA The Land of Crabs)! Spacious, old-school crab house right on the banks of Kent Island (not to far across the bridge). Always the best quality crabs at competitive prices. All other dishes are of the freshest quality and definitely don't sleep on the Hushpuppies! If you get a chance, try to sit at the upper level. On a warm, sunny day the staff open the massive windows and you get a great view of the Bay and a much welcomed breeze. P.S. If you still have room after your meal check out the ice cream shop on the dock. It's a nice way to end a great meal. Bring cash though, they don't take credit/debit.

Erin R.

My first venture to Kent Narrows brought us to Harris Crab House. We started off with the cream of crab soup. I mean, cream of crab paste. The soup was far too thick in my opinion and didn't have much meat in it so to speak. For entrees, I ordered a half pound of shrimp. I suppose it was a true half pound, but only seeing 6 shrimp in a basket for $13 was disappointing. A dozen crabs cost us $75 and while they were good crabs, I again felt over charged. Maybe there is a crab shortage? Maybe I'm spoiled by Ocean City $30 all you can eat buffets? Maybe I'm being crabby.

Crabs were delicious, fresh, and meaty! We did order the large and I felt they were a bit pricy but you do get what you paid for. I was stuffed! The crab ball appetizers were also yummy! Barley any fillers and mostly all crab meat. The service was great and attentive. The huge hype of the nutty buddy's was too much. I didn't think it was that special. Will return just for the crabs.

Christine J.

The experience I had here was fabulous! Every time I go it never fails to impress. The atmosphere is casual, and the service is excellent. I recommend the mussels, fish tacos, crabs, calamari and of course! The hush puppies! Try going during happy hour and save lots of money! It's a great place to go after a trip to the beach and a warm summer day to relax on the deck. 5 star all the way!

Food was ok. Extremely loud place but I guess that's expected in a crab shack atmosphere . Prices were fair.

AJ D.

Took advantage of the all you can eat crab special with 2 sides. Not bad for 30 something dollars (i think that was the price) where in a dozen crabs is 45bucks. Do do the math, if u can eat 20 crabs in one sitting, like yours truly, then its totally worth it. Outdoor sitting definitely makes it more legit. Crabs were nice and meaty! Definitely worth the hour drive and the 5 dollar bridge toll to get here LOL.

Delicious! Try the stuffed oysters imperial- so good! Everything we got- crab cakes, oysters, even the vegetable side, cornbread and slaw was wonderful. Well worth it!

Great place for food of the sea. Crab is the lay of the land but the other fish options are good too. Here's the deal... I ordered the Captain Bill's Favorite. Fish, scallops, crab cake and crab soup. It was good but if you're looking for that culinary experience you'd get from a five star bistro, this isn't that place. Don't get me wrong, the food is good, but nothing to pack home in a doggie bag. I would love to come back in the daylight hours to see the view.

Dan S.

Harris crab house was a recommendation from a buddy who said if you are looking for atmosphere and good food , visit it. We did and it didn't disappoint. The views were spectacular and the food was tasty. The crabs seemed like work so I ordered the fried soft crabs, thumbs up! My wife ordered the crab cakes and we both tried the cream crab soup which was excellent.. Hope to be back some day..

Our normal spots were busy, so we decided to go here. BIG MISTAKE ! They were steady but not real busy for a 6pm Sunday evening. Ordered two specialty drinks which were OK. Ordered two surf n turf meals with two sides. The waitress quicly points out that there are UP-CHARGES to get a side salad as a side and another UP-CHARGE for a baked potato with the steak entree !!! The salad arrives in a plastic shell shaped dish that had a toddlers handful of lettuce, The blue cheese dressing was homemade and was blended with lots of dill (green specs) and very little blue cheese crumbles, (they should really see Kentmoor if they want to make a nice homemade blue cheese dressing). The entrees arrive in a decent time. The crab imperial had NO creamy sauce, and was served in a little foil crab looking tin. The Steak was black as the grill was really hot, but cooked as I had ordered it (med rare). The food lacked seasoning the all the paper cups for food service is very off putting. It definitely felt like a tourist trap and there is good reason the other restaurants were swamped and this one was not!! LAST BUT NOT LEAST - their cleaning procedures (or lack there of) are NASTY and disgusting! A family of 6 had crabs at their table, spilled butter and vinegar all over the table. Once they left, the waitress rolled up the brown crab paper and carried it 30 feet to the trash can, carefully holding the bottom since it was dripping and was very week. She returned to the table tok one paper towel wiped up the remaining liquid and quickly put down more crab paper. Maybe a little disinfectant would be nice!

Beautiful view, good service. Since I don't eat crabs, I cannot comment on the crabs. The tomato pasta was okay, the noodles were overdone and it was cold. 50% of the 8 that went got sick and had to run to bathroom 4-5 times that evening. I usually dont like the overwhelming smell of seafood, but it was nicely ventilated and clean. I would try this place again, but def tell them to make the pasta extra hot.

I feel obligated to review this restaurant. From the moment we walked in it was everything I wanted in a seafood joint by the water. The food was fantastic (the local oysters especially) the beer was cold, the sunset over the bridge was fantastic, the crab cake was awesome, service perfect....everything I wanted. Quality seafood is not cheap these days. It's just a fact. If you want cheap, go to red lobster and have some crap. This place is a real treat.

Friend # 1 - "It's ginormous." Friend # 2 - "And it's so hard." This refers to the homemade Nutty Buddies. If you're a fan of dessert and Nutty Buddies, this is the place to get it. The ice cream is almost healthy tasting - a lot less "cream" and a lot more "milk". Some of the other items to get at this restaurant: - Shock Top Beer - tastes like Blue Moon; also served with an orange - Fat Tire Beer - Belgian Wheat Beer; little bit bitter - All You Can Eat Crabs - roughly $33 a person (depends on the market). There is a caveat noted on the menu that the restaurant does buy their crabs from other locations that are not within the Kent Island, MD location. yelp.com/biz_photos/jDsyâ€¦ - Cajun Mac & Cheese - pretty good. Described on the menu as "Savory Mac & Cheese with Crawfish, Shrimp, Scallions and Roasted Red Peppers and Bacon with a Blend of Smoked Gouda and Sharp Cheddar" for $12. Sounds pricey... but gosh darn, it's how Mac & Cheese is done. It tastes mostly like Crawfish and Shrimp with a little bit of Macaroni and a lot of cheese. With the cheese - it does taste salty, but still fully worth your money. yelp.com/biz_photos/jDsyâ€¦ TIP: Check In Special on FourSquare. $5 off with a $10 purchase with American Express.

Sat 8/24/13 4:30PM $68.00 dozen large jimmy crabs $5.25 homemade nutty buddi and a whole lotta fried appetizers... First and foremost, the 5th star is for our waitress, Danyelle. Her service was immaculate. We ordered two bowls of soup, fried oysters, a basket of fries, a basket of hush puppies, and a Cajun mac 'n cheese. The only thing that was not to our liking was the Cajun mac 'n cheese...we found it a bit salty and the bacon flavor too overpowering. And now for the crabs, they were excellent.! About 67% of them were packed, fully with meat. And those of you who know the real deal, I cannot wait return and feast on them when they are 80-90% packed right before winter. Make sure to get a nutty buddi for dessert or one for the car ride home...

Disappointed in our visit here. The food was mediocre and the service was slow. The oysters were good, however the clams were terrible and the calamari was barely acceptable. For a seafood place, I expected better. We went during a swing time so I don't know if they don't provide good food during less busy times or what.

Great place over looking the Narrows. Easy on and off from 50. Great happy hour, casual dining, great for parties upstairs too. Great prices on everything, especially crabs. And try their frozen Sunday cone for dessert! The reason only 4 stars, lots of stairs. Not easily accessible if handicapped.

I thought this place was great for a casual meal. We went for a business lunch, and we got in and out pretty quickly. Everyone seemed happy with their choices. I had the shrimp platter with fries and hushpuppies. Pretty generous portions and everything was good. The one less star was for the service. It was terrible but just lacked any sort of personal interaction. (They weren't that busy and the person who seated us asked me "how many" on the way out - I was waiting for my group).

Wicca D.

What a disappointment. We were stuck in a dark corner while the rest of the restaurant was full of light. My husband ordered steamed crabs. The only size available was medium. He said they were below average, small, tasteless, lukewarm and didn't seem fresh. The corn on the cob was mealy and hadn't had the silk removed. Also served lukewarm. My daughter had king crab legs - they were the best, probably because they were frozen and sent from Alaska. She wanted a baked potato, but the restaurant ran out while we were waiting for our food. They brought potato salad instead, which got one taste and was left to sit. Our friend had catfish, which was oily and very fishy and mushy. I had rockfish which smelled as if it had not been near water or a rock in a very long time. It had a strong fishy taste and I ate a few bites. It was served with fries, which were obviously straight from the school cafeteria school of fries. The fries were also lukewarm, dry and stale. I ate 3. My biggest hope is none of us have food poisoning. I give this restaurant the lowest rating ever of any place I've eaten. If there was a way to do no stars, I would. 4 times ugh.

Harris Crab House, is a must for any seafood lover, either make it a day trip or on your from / to the beach this is a great stop for crabs and other seafood. Fresh from Maryland's liquid treasure chest, crabs here are locally caught and steamed in house. One of the best deals during the summer months is their all you can eat deal. Medium to large male crabs, corn on the cob and hush puppies, all for less than $40, that's not a bad deal, when a dozen of extra large can be triple that at times. Crabs are seasoned well and not too overly salty. Their hush puppies are what you would expect when ordering them, and the corn, when in season is picked locally and sweet. Sitting in their massive open first floor, or opt for their 2nd level indoor / outdoor seating, either way you will be able to relax and enjoy the scenery. If it gets too late though the Red Eye Dock bar becomes the only thing you'll hear if you're sitting outside, that's including the person across from you at the table, :-). With just right prices, and a larger selection of fresh seafood, than most places west of here, Harris Crab House is a great stop and a must to try if you love seafood. 4 stars!

We were looking for a down and dirty crab house, the sort of place where they use brown paper as a table cloth and mound the crabs up in the middle of the table for you to have at it. If your looking for the same, then this is the place for you!!! We were in Laurel for my college graduation and we made the trek over here for a celebratory lunch afterward. Well worth the hour or so drive. Harris Crab House is located just on the other side of the bay bridge toward the end of one of the piers. We were initially concerned there would be a long wait, but we were seated immediately even though the parking lot was packed with cars and there was a decent size crowd mulling about in the parking lot. We ordered a couple of apps to share (boiled shrimp, hush puppies (yum) and some other stuff I can't remember. What was memorable was the two dozen large crab that we ordered!! These kept us busy for well over an hour and by the time we were done our table looked like a crab massacre had occurred. Prices seemed reasonable and all in all I definitely think we would pay a return visit.

One of the best crab houses I've been to in the area! Friendly staff, casual environment. Raw oysters were heavenly. Crabcakes were good, but not really well seasoned (hey, I'm from New Orleans so it may be perfect for others). The garlic aioli was divine! Great as a dipping sauce for the calamari and I used it on the crabcake too! I will definitely be back.

Erin C.

How can you go wrong with a sunset meal on a Friday night complete with crab and other seafood goodness?! You can't. Not at all. Harris Crab House did not disappoint. We decided to not do the AYCE crab and instead just ordered 2 large crabs each. They were filling and more than enough for us. We also ordered the popcorn shrimp and the bbq shrimp. Both were delicious and SO MUCH food! The service was great and the laid back atmosphere was perfect for outdoor dining. Go and enjoy!

stopped in for a quick crab cake sandwich and a beer on my way to the airport in Baltimore. Overall a nice clean place that dishes out some very good crab cakes. Would have loved to had more time to go through the menu a bit more and will make it a point to return the next time i'm in the area.

Pretty good. I wanted seafood, and I'm nostalgic for the cheap places from my childhood in Savannah, GA, and Lowcountry SC: no frills fried/steamed seafood places right by the creeks with super-fresh seafood. This is the closest I've found to that in 20 years. (The ones in SC and Georgia all either closed or went too upscale when the local fishing fleets went away. Fried frozen imported shrimp suck.) My girlfriend and I ordered a dozen crabs, hushpuppies, and coleslaw. All were good. Crabs weren't local due to a slow season (cold spring weather, I assume), but they were fresh from Louisiana. (Not completely fresh: I think one of mine was dead when they cooked it.) They're steamed and generously doused in Old Bay. Hushpuppies are smaller than what I'm used to, so the centers are a little drier than I like, but they were good, and the coleslaw is above average. Atmosphere is a little touristy and a madhouse for Sunday lunch. (Granted, we were there on Memorial Day weekend. I'm guessing a weekday trip would be nice.) Interior is a bit kitschy, but not bad - nice touch of mostly using old oyster cans. Service was friendly but harried, but I think that was mostly from hitting them at the end of Memorial Day weekend. For a weekend meal, I'd recommend going very early; second-best bet would be getting there very late like we did (around 2:30 p.m.) The nutty buddies are a cool idea, but I can't say they're particularly good - pretty tasteless ice cream and chocolate. Get one to share just to check that box, but I wouldn't bother with them on a subsequent trip. I'll be back in the fall for oysters.

Best crab house in Maryland! Definitely try and sit outside, upstairs so you can overlook the water while you eat! Their cream of crab soup is amazing! Huge chunks of crab in every bite! And their crabs are always fresh and huge! Raw oysters are fresh and yummy as well! Definitely save room for their huge hush puppies!

Thank you Brandi and all of the Harris Crab House staff for making my 55 birthday so memorable. We arrived Friday afternoon after calling all week to make certain they had crabs. They did and were thrilled. We were seated by the window which had a view of the floating ice since the temps were so very cold. We were greeted by Brandi who was so charming. The perfect mix of friendly and great service! We has the Crab Feast which was $32 per person. Mostly female crabs, 1/2 pound of shrimp and corn. Corn was not great for me but hubby liked it. One of the things I really liked about the service was how they served the crabs. The first time we got 12, then 8 then 6 then 8...I know, I know...we really enjoyed them. The fact that they did not bring them out by the "dozens" meant they were always hot which was great! Add a pitcher of beer for $11 and we were in heaven for a few hours. So much so we went back twice over the weekend. Later Friday night, they had an Oyster Feast. I don't care for Oysters so I enjoyed the ambiance, Brandi's service and a couple glasses of wine. On Saturday night we went back for more crabs. Although they did not advertise it, they had another crab feast with females only. Again for most people it might have been a disappointment but hubby prefers females so we were thrilled to pay only $32 each again for AYCE. Add to that they changed the TV to a great BB game (Michigan V Michigan State) and it was a great time. Thank you to Barbara the other "B" who was our waitress on Saturday night! We will see you all again in a few months!

I ran out of stars! This place is delicious ! I'm a self-proclaimed crab snob and Harris Crab House is right on the money! First time trying crawdads and couldn't stop eating them. We wound up inhaling 3 pounds! The nutty buddy was delicious home made ice cream that kept itself together without dripping down all over itself. Someone had mentioned in a previous review that the crabs were only from Maryland . Well that's not the case in the off season. They come from Louisiana during the winter, there is no crabbing in Maryland in the winter months. During the regular season they are pulled out if the Chesapeake waters. I must say I do enjoy a Lousiana crab more so than Maryland or Jersey. Even the Texas crabs are delicious . They are pulled out of the warm Gulf waters ... The service was fantastic. Our waitress Steph came to our table and wrote her name on the brown paper cover. Which is a clever idea if the icy cold beer causes A temporary lapse in memory! I wasn't really happy with the fact that I couldn't buy a t shirt as the end of our evening . The two girls cashiers said that they already closed out the register. I thought that was pretty crappy of them. Why couldn't they get a manager to sell me one then record their sale tomorrow? I think that was pure laziness but that's just my opinion. Overall , I do reccomend and I will be returning next month in April . This time I will get my shirt early!

Get a pail of cherrystone clams and a cup of oyster stew! Our waiter was friendly and offered great suggestions. And even though it was a very busy New Year's Day with a full house, service was quick and good. There are better views at other places nearby but the food here is better.

AMAZZZZZING!!!! The creamy lobster soup was so good!!! And there was a good amount of lobster in it. I ordered the crab cake with veggies. It was the best I've had in the DMV area. The only bad thing was that the asparagus was overcooked. Service is friendly and attentive.

All you can eat crabs in a restaurant with a nice view to the river...Yes, you can't go wrong?! We had lots of fresh crabs, tasty shrimps and corn on the cob. We tried the crabs with some spicy seasoning and without it. Definitely we prefer the seafood without seasoning (the European way), just boiled with salt. it's more authentic. The waitress was super nice and helpful.

An old favorite - with good reason. We called around, and they had the best prices on crabs. We got some of the best extra large crabs I have had all year, the shrimp were jumbo and delicious, the king crab legs were monstrous, sweet. and delicious. The bucket of rum drink was tasty, but with all the ice not quite as amazing a deal as the "32 ounce" description makes it sound... But still a good drink. Also, amazing service - could not be happier unless it was closer to my house!

I really enjoy Harris Crab House. If we are going crab-picking, it is our back-up to Kentmorr, but it always is delicious. You can get a crab feast for $30 (at least in December 2011!). Most recently, I took my mother there and didn't get the crab feast but opted instead for a cup of the Maryland Crab Stew and the oyster po' boy sandwich. Both dishes were excellent. The crab stew had 3 whole crab claws in it (which granted, was startling to pull up on my spoon -- so look out and don't bite the claw!) and lots of other crab meat. The soup was also good because you can taste the vegetables and they don't put too much Old Bay in it like other places. The oyster po boy was delicious also! The oyster were succulent and had just the perfect amount of fry on them -- crunchy and light. The roll was buttered and slathered with a nice tangy tartar sauce. My mother got a broiled platter that included a cup of soup, broiled flounder and scallops and a crabcake. She enjoyed it all! The service was also great. This is not a fancy place -- the tables are covered in paper and the soup comes in styrofoam cups with plastic spoons. The sides are also a bit underwhelming -- the coleslaw I had was odd -- it had cubes of cabbage. I just didn't understand it. The hushpuppies were oblong so more fried than dough. They also only have Pepsi sodas (I prefer Coke!). But other than those minor gripes, this place is a real winner! :) Great for a taste of the Eastern shore -- the menu seemed to have a lot of variety and good options.

Be prepared to get down & dirty.....ok, get your mind out of the gutter damnit. Let me preface that it's nothing like having sex, but damn, eating crabs comes pretty close to it. Can we say orgasmic? Mmmmmm....delicious, juicy, tender, meaty, fresh NEVER frozen crabs!! Kudos to you if you can tell that it's not frozen. They weren't kidding when my friends said i absolutely must try Maryland crabs. Now I see what all the hype is about. The crawfish was pretty kick ass. Gonna have to pass on the oysters next time...who was i kidding? they were BLEH. A pitcher of beer & a dozen fantabulous season of mating crabs later..... no crab was left behind.. .. all that stood was butter that turned into good ole' solid fat. Uh...yeah...don't think i'll be dipping my crab in that tub of lard next time....it was great by itself and their special seasoning. Shit. definitely no room for dessert (HOMEMADE nutty buddies????) though I was heavily tempted...i was way too stuffed. And who can say no to sitting outside by the docks, watching the sun set, in perfect sense weather? mmmm.....

Super cute local place. We went here after a wedding so we looked super over dressed (this is the shorts and flip flops crowd). They have a great crab deal and they seem to have a lot of really local fried items. We got the crab cake and the soft shell crab entrees. Both were slightly too salty but we got a cheap pitcher of beer and so it went down well and we left happy. This place isn't super revolutionary but it is great for what it is.

The wife and I found this place thanks to Yelp, after a trip to Annapolis. We figured if we were in the area we would find good crabs. Totally not disappointed. Excellent crab cakes with a good selection of beer. The hush puppies were delicious (my first time having them). The place wasn't too hectic (we went at the beginning of Spring, when the weather was OK, but not great) so it was a nice pleasant dinner. The place is a little hard to find, which would be my only complaint.

I think that the atmosphere and location take the cake! Food was ok. Best bet is to order the CRABS. I ordered mussels in garlic-butter sauce. WAY TOO SALTY! and I like salt. Great place to take visiting guests.

I'm giving it a 4 star because it gave me a taste of home. I haven't had TRUE Maryland blue crabs in a long long time. It's a reminder of childhood. The first crack and bite of the crab meat - I was a kid again. So funny how certain tastes/smells can take you back in time! So thank you for that! One gripe I had was....they only had medium sized crabs available!! We were ready for the large/XL crabs - but we had to seriously work for the meat. I wanted to convert my boyfriend to loving blue crabs - but after that, dungeness & king crab still have his heart. He did say the seasoning was good! But he was still hungry afterwards. The scenery is beautiful - we were able to see the sunset on the water.

My husband and I have been enjoying crabs at Harris for many years. Recently we decided to make the 1 1/2 hour drive out there for lunch. It was awesome as usual. We got a perfect table outside on the upstairs backporch. We sat in the gorgeous sunshine and watched the boats go by while we dug into our ginormous luscious crabs!! The service is always great and we're never disappointed with the food. Definitely a Top Fav!

Josie M.

Its a busy, cute and casual place where the friendly staff doesn't rush you. The crabs are very good. Okay, this is a non-food issue here, but I have to mention it. They do not recycle their plastic drinking cups. After an outside table leaves, they wrap everything up with the used butcher paper tablecloth, and throw it in a trashbag with all the food garbage. The garbage bags are tied together without any separation of recycled items; our table was right in front of the cans, so I couldn't help but watch this go on. The amount of plastic environmental waste this generates is enormous. This is completely unnecessary Harris Crab, and it really irks me.

Right now, all you can eat LOCAL steamed crabs, corn on the cob, and 1/2 lbs of steamed shrimp for $29.95. I think the deal is good for Monday thru Thursday only. Go now! I mean right now! With the gulf oil gusher limiting crabs from the gulf, it won't be long before the local supply is running short and prices sky rocket. Get this yummy deal while you can!

I used to drive from D.C. to Kent Island just for the She Crab Soup that used to be served at the first restaurant to the right of the bridge. It was amazing . I hope they are all still as good.

1 hour drive to a picnic table with a little wooden hammer. I'm the opposite of a crab aficionado. I think I've had crabs like this maybe...2 or 3 times in my life. The crabs here were so good! We tried the other seafood...stick with the crabs, I didn't really care for anything else. I finally found a place in Maryland that has the best crabs! Go ahead and plan to spend part of the day here, there is an outlet mall just down the street. I have no idea if any of the other places are good for crabs. No 5 stars because the other seafood was not that great, and I saw a small dead rat in the parking lot while I was leaving...might wanna sweep your parking lot, Harris.

When my fiance and I are meeting up with my fiances Dad and Step mom we often meet at Harris Crab House. It is good, you can grab a table on the deck which over looks the bay. Crabs are good, not too big and not too small. We ordered shrimp, pretty happy with the shrimp. I for some reason had a craving for a hot dog. The hot dog tasted like a hot dog made at home in a pan of water. Would recommend this place. I like this area because there is also shops within walking distance. Beware pretty busy and parking is hard to get on the weekend.

Harris crab house was the recent destination of a family get together. We were told that we couldn't be seated until everyone in our twelve member party was actually there, they were slightly flexible on this which was great. Our group was sag downstairs at long tables covered with brown paper in a true crab feast style. The open room was very noisy but kind of lent to the 'there's something going on in here' atmosphere. The menu had many items including.g steaks,ribs,crabs,crab legs,shrimp,mussels,oysters,several types of clams among other items. There were many different items ordered by our group. I was interested in crabs but decided against them because of the price. I opted for the fried waterman platter,which for $28 had two sides,shrimp,oyst ers,scallops and a very nice sized, delicious crab cake! Everyone seemed pleased with their food but it was difficult to hear comments since it was so noisy. Things were a bit on the pricey side but considering the prime waterfront location,not surprising. The service was a little slow but everything eventually made it's wayt out. Our waitress did a thorough job of checking what was ordered was what actually made it to the table and had to make several adjustments. Drink refils were difficult and slow because of the crowd but once pitchers arrived at the table, this was solved. Although the service was a little slow, our waitress seemed to maintain a good attitude during our meal! Several Yelpers said that the nutty buddies were fabulous. Although I personally didn't get one I was told that the ice cream and toppings must have been combined before being sent to the blast freezer making them hard as a rock once they were served in a plastic bag. I would recommend Harris Crab House to any size wanting to eat seafood in a nice waterfront restaurant that tends to be rather loud.

My husband suggested that we go across The Bay for Sunday dinner and we invited two friends along. When we arrived there were several people in line and I thought that this was going to be a LONG wait and we waited only twenty minutes! Our server was great and had Fried Green Dill Tomatoes, Crab Bites and Crab Dip as our appetizers. Dinner was wonderful. Our dinner arrived quickly and was delicious and we definitely drive from Catonsville to Stevensonville again!

By far, Harris Crab House is my favorite place to go for hot steamed crabs! My group sat on the deck outside overlooking the water. The menu is limited for outside seating, but what we wanted was steamed seafood! I was the only one who had the crabs. While large crabs are priced at $48/dozen, you can order them individually, which I did. I'm a slow eater, so four or five is my limit. If you're a pro at crab picking, they have all-you-can-eat crab and shrimp on the weekdays. Two of my friends had whole lobster and two had steamed crab legs. Everyone raved about their meal. The lobsters were huge! And I thought my large crabs were larger than other places I ordered from. Our service was friendly and provided helpful choices to those debating over the snow or Alaskan king crab legs. It is a seemingly quick drive; just a bit past the Chesapeake Bridge. Highly recommended!

Drove all the way from NoVA to eat here. Wasn't sure exactly what we were gonna order but alas after such a long drive we figured it was only appropriate to load up on MD blue crabs. We arrived on a Saturday afternoon with baby in tote. Parking seems like it's a bit of an issue since there were two guys positioned outside to make sure only patrons park there. We sat inside but in retrospect it might have been better to eat outside since the weather was fairly nice and less noisy, which means we might not have had to spend four hours switching off to lull the baby. The first batch was piled with tons of SALT, with a dash of seasoning ;) Seriously though, I think their seasoning is more salt than actual spices. The salt was definitely overpowering. Definitely not a place for people with high blood pressure!!! We asked for no seasoning since the table already had a shaker full of it...even so...they still had quite a bit on the bottom. Not sure if our special request had us waiting longer for more crabs but they all came out hot! Some crabs were large and some were a bit anemic but for the most part they were medium sized and meaty. At first I had to ask our waitress about the best technique and eventually I learned, but do yourself a big favor and YouTube "how to eat blue crabs" before going. At first, I wasted an inordinate amount of time trying to pick out every miniscule morsel of meat, but after several crabs you begin to realize you're only getting hungrier after all that work. Now I know why they give you 1/2 lb of shrimp and AYCE corn on the cob. I'm glad I did it and it was a neat experience to see how high we can pile up the crab carcasses but IMHO the juice isn't quite worth the squeeze. Snow crabs are just so much more rewarding for so little effort. Anyway can't wait to come back to do it again, but it'll probably be a while. Thanks for the fun experience and great service. Later we stopped by their dockside icecream shop, used a coupon from their website, and enjoyed their frozen chocolate covered softserved cones and two scoops of some atypical flavors. The icecream was okay, but the shop needs a facelift. The inside does not look inviting at all.

Great location. Mediocre crab cakes - which in Maryland means they were totally unacceptable for a restaurant. The service was slow. I like to take a break along the water as I travel to/from the eastern shore. I will not go back to this place. There are much better places in the vicinity.

Susan F.

Went here with some crab lovers. I am not a big seafood eater. I must say I was impressed with having a variety of non-seafood items on the menu. I ended up getting a steak...which was cooked a little more to my liking. It was better than I expected since I was at a place that specialized in seafood. The people I went with got the alligator appetizer and really liked it. One of them also got the all you can eat crab and really enjoyed that. The outside seating was nice... Oh and the dessert....I had a brownie cake with raspberry ice cream filling. I think someone could easily twist my arm to go back there just for a slice of that cake. Mmmmmm..... :)

We have been driving to Harris' from Fairfax, Va since 1996. We loved the cream of crab soup and it was the reason for the long drive just for dinner! Unfortunately, our last 3 trips have been disappointing. The soup recipe has drastically changed for the worse! It was always thick with crab and now has less crab and more thickener. It's ok, just not worth the trip anymore. Along with the soup we would share the Watermans catch and an appetizer...not anymore. Hardly enough to feed my hubby much less both of us. Portions smaller as are the scallops & shrimp. Raise prices, don't lower your standards. Well, we have had a great 16 year run and now it has come to an end. Sad. Will miss my 2 favorite oyster shuckers.

This place could use a makeover....however, friendly service and decent food. I was planning to try the crab however didn't have the patience to crack them open nor find the stomach if I ran into any bad ones...so I ordered the broiled rock fish when I was told that it was local. fish seemed fresh...tasted bland though...at least it didn't taste fishy! The corn on the cob was surprisingly good for this late in the year...yummy with butter! And I had yummy hush puppies and cornbread. I tried a sample size cream of crab soup...and found it disappointing...little flavor...too much shell...and very flour pasty...no taste of sherry. It was so thick that it did not resemble soup! Glad I only bought a sample!! The view from the restaurant is the water on the right side of the bridge facing toward the west. Beer on tap is limited to American cheap beers.

Excellent crab cakes! Enjoyed grilled salmon and steamed spinach and broccoli too. It truly was prepared in a healthy manner, and I appreciated it. My expectations were low, so my deal was such a delight. Enjoyed walking around the dock area too.

Me. tray of hot steamed crabs, corn, and 1/2 lb steamed shrimp. Heaven on earth ... for $30. Sometimes I even order the cream of crab soup with an extra shot of sherry. Mmmm. In case you can't tell. I love this place. It's two levels and has great views of the bay. The servers are really nice and there's usually plenty of space to spread out and crack away. The AYCE is available M-F, $30 for AYCE crabs and corn, and 1/2 lb steamed shrimp. Prices for drinks are also pretty reasonable, but why fill your belly with liquid when you can be feasting on crabs!? Mmm, I think I might have to go again soon!

Yahoo! I had wanted to eat real Maryland blue crab since my son started the University of Maryland. His graduation was the finale of my long awaited adventure into the realm of the crab world. Not entirely a crab virgin... It was my first time for the blue crab. My son had told me that eating the blue crab was an experience... much more than just sitting down and filling up. I was warned that it could be difficult and even dangerous because the shells were sharp. The five of us ordered different plates and a dozen or so of crabs. The meal did not disappoint me. By the time we were finished there was "stuff" all over the paper table cloth. My daughter in law was beating the poor little dead crabs "to death" with the wooden mallet. I had just finished the fisherman's plate with fried oysters, fried scallops, crab cake and soft shell crab and oohh the hush puppies...mmm. I topped it off with a pitcher of beer...yes, just me ...the others drank too much the night before! The waitress was helpful and funny and was always there to re-fill the drinks. I have to say I followed my daughter in law's lead and beat some of the little buggers myself... good times. I want to make it perfectly clear...There was plenty to eat although it was a weekend and no specials are offered. I loved all of the food...I have to say though...a big deal is made of the Maryland crab cakes and as far as crab cakes go ...I guess these were some of the best. I just don't like crab cakes. My mom used to make Salmon patties that I liked better...same principle...different species. One interesting thing happened. When we were going to the car after shopping the boardwalk for tourist stuff...I noticed a man in a room under the crab house sorting the crabs. I asked how long he has been doing that. He asked "today? or forever?" He explained how he sorts the crab by size and for freshness, etc. I asked who he was and he said (his first name) Harris. "I'm the general manager." I thought to myself as we were leaving... now there was a man that probably could be out on a boat in the bay...sipping on martinis or whatever...but he spends at least 5 or 6 hours a day sorting crabs so his customers get the freshest daily catch served up by some of the nicest people around. No wonder it is one of the most successful crab houses on the Maryland shore...and I was pleased to have my virgin... blue crab... experience at his place!

I'm giving the Friday night Oyster Buffet five stars for a few reasons. The all-you-can-eat freshly shucked oysters are out-of-this-world delish. I love that the buffet is almost all-oyster. You can have them fried, steamed, stuffed, in a casserole...and the chocolate cake and blueberry pie were very good. The oyster buffet is offered only during the MD oyster season but I like to go to Harris Crab House for lunch throughout the year as well. The staff is friendly and efficient. Great place.

From reading about Kent Island in various newspaper travel sections, Harris Crab House is one of the restaurants that consistently make the pages. Following the mentions, we decided to check out Kent Island and stop off at HCH for lunch. It's fairly easy to find (we drove up from DC) right off of Rte 50, Exit 41. The restaurant is situated right on the marina, over the water and is a part of a small strip of stores and bars. On arriving, they told us that there is both inside and outside seating, but that we can't order fried foods if we sat outside, which is what we wanted to do. They allowed us to order one basket of fried oysters anyway, so long as the majority of our orders were steamed. We then proceeded to order raw oysters, steamed clams and half a dozen steamed crabs. The crabs are not on the menu, but they're probably market priced. Pricing on our visit was $48 per dozen for "large" crabs and $68 per dozen for "extra large crabs. We also ordered beers and a banana daquiri (yummy!). Everything was good as expected, despite the lackadaisical service. In the end, there aren't many places where you can pound away at crabs right over the water.

Brian S.

Two dozen large sized steamed blue crabs with just the right amount of spice and saltiness. Four cream of crab soup samplers. One dozen fresh raw oysters that just melts in your mouth. Three pounds of steaming hot snow crab legs. Half dozen corn on the cob. Two orders of onion rings. One order of hush puppies. One order of cole slaw. Four orders of Unlimited refills of soft drinks. 95 degrees heat wave with a slight breeze from the bay. One pack of Marlboro Lights. Evening dinner outing with the long time best of friends. All this for $200 = PRICELESS

Penguin S.

I can't really vouch for the food here. I come for the soup. The crab soup. The cream of crab soup. I have found it to be, time and again, the best, creamiest, butteriest, crab lumpiest delight in all the Chesapeake. When I lived in Annapolis, any time I had visitors from out of town, I brought them here. Proudly.

crab cake was ok, but its not maryland crab meat. its imported. the large crabs are from louisiana, which is ok because you cant get jumbos in maryland. the stuffed shrimp was ok too. the crabs unfortunately were not complete full of meat. the crab house's atmosphere is to die for; this is what a crab house should be.

Tamika H.

We went on Thursday for lunch. First of all, our waitress Susan was delightful! She went over the menu in detail. We ordered steamed shrimp, crab cakes, and a fish taco. I had the crabcakes, which susan recommended fried. I must admit they were good along with the crisp fries. I can't wait to try them broiled. Next were the shrimp they were greatly steamed and flavored inside and out! In all the food was good and I am looking forward to going back soon! The ticket was 40 something dollars. I forgot to mention I had a pitcher of Coors light! It was 10.06 by itself.

This is what the Chesapeake Bay is all about. Beer & seafood at sunset. However, I'm knocking it down a couple of notches for two reasons: One, the quality and flavors are only so-so. There are definitely better crab shacks around, from a quality-perspective. Two, it's definitely geared towards tourists, and the prices reflect that. However...if you're a quantity-over-quality type of person, I have to share a short story with you. So they were running this special the first time I went there. It was some sort of all-you-can-eat oyster fest...(it wasn't on the regular menu). The price was somewhere in the high-$20/low-$30 range...I forget exactly. So I got that. Seemed kinda pricy, but I love oysters. First they brought out a bowl of oyster stew. It was adequate...no complaints. Then they brought out maybe 20 or so raw oysters. Then followed that up with 2 plates full of steamed oysters. While I was working on the steamed oysters, they brought me a dozen more raw oysters. Mind you, I wasn't even asking for refills at this point. They were just bringin' 'em and dropping 'em off at the table. In fact, I was actually starting to get worried. I mean, this was a ridiculous amount of food! My friend was giving me looks like he was saying "what in the hell have you gotten yourself into, man?!?!" Then they brought out 2 plates full, piled high, of fried oysters. Shortly thereafter arrived a plate full of some sort of baked oysters with spices and breadcrumbs (sort of like Clams Casino, but with oysters instead). At that point, I called Uncle on the whole endeavor. I mean, seriously...this was outta hand! I was starting to feel incredibly self-conscious having all of these plates and mounds of food literally stacked on top of each other at my table. In total, it must've been several pounds worth of oysters. I thought that maybe the waitress had screwed up and thought that my friend and I had *both* ordered the Oysterpalooza. But nope, when the check came there was only one on there. I felt like I had stepped in for Adam Richman during a filming of Man v. Food by the time I left.

Have been going to Harris about twice/year for 10 yrs, as we often travel the route 50 corridor to the Eastern Shore. Their crab cakes and seafood are outstanding; however, the sides (cole slaw, etc.) are very generic, and things like the rolls aren't topnotch. But the waitresses (I don't ever remember having a waiter here -- but the cooks in the back are male) are lovely and gracious, and the ambiance, with a view of fishing boats and leisure craft, is fun for adults and kids alike. I don't get dessert here as waitress admitted everything is brought in frozen from a food service supplier. However, the cup of ice cream which accompanies the kid's meal which my youngest child gets has always been fine (tastes like Edy's or similar). I think Harris would be even better if they were to start serving more serious sides with fresh vegetables, but at the moment it's canned/frozen/food service quality. Stick with the seafood, avoid the potatoes, so perfect for you low-carbers!

I last ate here 4 + years ago and had a great meal - so maybe my expectations were a little high - but I probably will not return now. Ordered 6 oysters half shell, got a dozen - I said OK but then regretted. Served on melted ice - pool of water with ice floating in it, one feeble lemon slice ( for 12 oysters?), and they were not cut away so was scooping with my dinner knife ( this last item may be a regional style - but every good Oyster I have had from Whistler to NYC to Florida - is served with the Oyster cut away from the shell - season to your liking - and slurp! . Shell pieces in EVERY one! (bad schucking) So I was off to a bad start. I order the Fried Combination ( Waterman's Catch) - the Seafood was all quite good - that is what you are here for - but after the oysters - I really needed to be wowed. Perhaps a little greasy - but not over cooked - the most common of offences. But the Hush Puppies - ugh - I took one bite and asked the server if they were frozen - Yes, inexcusable. Cornbread - cold - probably also out of the freezer - in general no pride here. My solo dinner came to $40 ( bar separate due to business travel & that was another ordeal) and there were definitely much more expensive options ( I did not see something like a Dozen Crabs - only AYCE - I think that was like $38 alone - so how this gets only "$$" I do not know.

Wish this place was closer. The crabs and oysters were HUGE! The service was pretty good, and the outdoor seating on a nice, breezy day is a plus. Right when you park and get out of your car, you're going to smell funky sewage smell but it doesn't matter because you're about to get the best crab you've had in your life.

We dined here for the first time and we were a bit disappointed. The cream of crab soup was served in styrofoam containers and it was luke warm. It also had an odd taste to it and was mediocre at best. The crab cake sandwich was very small and served on a standard grocery store type potato roll. For the price paid , this was absurd. The shrimp salad was very good but also very small. In general, we did not have a good experience here and for the overall price, we could have done much better elsewhere. I gave a 2 star because the crabs for two combo looked very good and now we wished we tried it.

We came here on 09/05 to bring my mom's friend here because we love coming here for the seafood but Saturday's experience left much to be desired. We usually can just walk right in but there was a little bit of a wait which was a non-issue since I know the food is great. We get seated upstairs after about a 15-20 min wait. We wait longer than usually for a server to come over and when she finally does she says, they didn't tell me that I had this table. OK, we'll give you the benefit of the doubt since it was crowded. We started off with drinks and the tea & lemonade tasted like flavored water with a douse of sugar...no tea or lemonade taste....OK! Just bring me water from now on. We ordered an app which was the crab dip...worst crab dip I've ever tasted...it was very dry which is unusual for a place that specializes in crab dishes....OK won't order that again. Our entrees consisted of blackened catfish, oysters (yum), grilled cheese & lobster pasta. The only thing I could say is that I wish my food was hotter (felt like it had been sitting waiting to be picked up). My auntie said that the lobster pasta missed the mark with the lobster. All in all my experience here was less than stellar and if it was my first time here, I would never return but since I am a regular I will be returning just won't be sitting upstairs. Harris is a great place for seafood in Kent Island especially if your a steamed crab lover so check it out for yourself & maybe I'll run into you while your there.

Two waterman feasts and one steamed combo. Everything was really good including the service. The waitress even laughed at my dads corny jokes. They have an all you can eat crab night for like 30~~ bucks! Really good imo. I prefer this restaurant over this other restaurant in kent narrows.

Absolutely worth the drive from Northern Virginia! I'd never heard of Harris', but my friends said it had great reviews. So I hopped in the car for the hour ride for lunch! The restaurant is right on the water, and there is even a porch with seating that looks out over the water. The interior is decorated like the quintessential seafood restaurant. We all went with the bottomless Maryland crabs. For just under $40 we had unlimited crabs, a cup of soup, and two sides! Although there is a two hour limit on the crabs, we were completely stuffed before our limit was up. We were brought a giant tray of crabs, hammers, and buckets for our trash. Of course, this was a messy meal, but bibs and wet napkins are available upon request. There is also a role of paper towels on each table. Our waitress was awesome! She answered all the crazy questions we asked. She kept coming by to refill our drinks and empty our shell buckets. Harris' is the place to go for Maryland crabs!

After reading the yelp reviews we look a huge risk and drove over an hour to eat here! This place side not disappoint at all! Excellent service! Our waitress was very polite, gave us a couple suggestions and checked on us a couple of times. Everyone enjoyed their food, absolutely loved their crabs! And the view.... Wow, the view is to die for! So worth the drive!

This has been my family's and family friends' favorite spot to get Maryland crab for years now. It's a little bit of a drive to get here from MoCo, but it's worth it. I recommend walking off the food coma at the outlet mall 20 minutes away after your meal. We always try to sit outside on the 2nd floor deck if the weather is nice. It's got a view of the water and a nice breeze that you don't get when sitting on the 1st floor deck. Note that you can only get the steamed seafood on the 1st floor deck, though that's all you really need here. We always get the extra large or jumbo crabs here, because mediums are just not worth it for all that work. Though you'll probably get pretty full after just 2 jumbo crabs, you may want to go with the extra large. Don't forget to ask for the butter sauce to dip the meat it. We also usually get steamed shrimp with old bay and fresh oysters. And when you're all done, definitely get the nutty butty ice cream! They don't cake on the old bay like many places around Maryland do, which we like a lot. It makes the crab eating experience a lot less salty, which is something my non-Maryland friends complain about. I also know a lot of Koreans come here because the way they use less old bay seasoning - just FYI. In the end when you come here, definitely get the crabs if nothing else.

We took a seat at first floor. Nice view there, but deck is definitely better. Crabs and shrimps are very fresh and spicy, but claws and mussels doesn't worth their price. Cole slaw tastes good also. We ordered mini bucket and half dozen crabs for three people. However, waitress didn't tell us oyster was not available until bucket was served... I should say, just go for steam crabs in Aug...

Planned this trip a month ago with my cousins and sister and the day turn out great even though it rained. This was our first time at Harris Crab house and the crabs were amazing and the service was exceptional. Kelly was our waitress and she was really nice and explained to us our options and and gave us plenty of time to decide and always came to check on us. Of course all of us went with all you can eat medium crabs and the two sides. Although the crabs were medium size there was plenty of meat in them and they were delicious. The place itself was very clean and it didn't have that seafood odor some seafood restaurants have. The decoration in the place was really cool and you could buy souvenirs and the prices were fair for crabs. Overall we had a great time and will be coming back again. And FYI even though it's all you can eat crabs there is a 2 hr limit but that is plenty of time cause we couldn't make it through a second tray. You'll be in a crab comatose.

I visited for the first time on labor day and was very satisfied! !!! I called ahead to be sure there wasn't a long wait time. The hostess told me there was no wait for inside seating but outside seating was 30 mins. We took the inside upon arrival. I was surprised it was so empty for a holiday but I guess everyone was at the beach. We ordered a dozen med crabs for $40. They were delicious!!! I've been thinking of them ever since! Lol they were hot and steaming on a tray brought to the table. When we were jus about done our food was brought out. I ordered pretty much a Po boy sandwich. Toast was a lil hard for me but thts jus personal preference. Lol oysters were fried just right. Hush puppies were really good. Overall I give it 5 stars!! Def worth the ride and money $$$ :)

We ate at Harris a few years ago and were excited to return. The outside deck provides wonderful background scenery for an afternoon of crab feasting. The all you can eat crab special used to be available on Sunday but now it only runs M-F. We lucked up and they offered it on the Sunday we visited. We paid $48 per person for 2 hours of unlimited medium crabs. The crabs while tasty were on the small side. You also get 2 sides and the Maryland crab soup. I enjoyed the brussel sprouts and hushpuppies. From what I remember it was cheaper a few years ago which was rather disappointing. If you have an appetite for crabs and can eat atleast a dozen it may be worth it considering the price of the all you can eat was the same as a medium dozen of crabs.

This place was recommended to me by a friend, since we were out of towners visiting the DC area. Since we were driving through Maryland we definitely wanted to have Maryland crabs, and what better than all you can eat crabs?! This place is hands down worth the drive. Great crabs in old bay seasoning and they even give you crab soup and two sides with the all you can eat special. I belive it was around $39 per person? Don't quite remember, but it's a sweet deal. Definitely have some good sweet tea as well. We sat outside and it was a hot day, but we got there in time for the sunset and it was cooling off. Great views by the water and an ice cream shop a few steps away. If I am ever passing through I will definitely stop here, even if it's off the path a little ;)

Harris Crab House has taken the place of Cantler's as my favorite waterfront crab house. Located just a few minutes into the Eastern Shore, the restaurant is right on the water, and most of the dining room has a beautiful view of the water. There's a main dining room, and outdoor bar, and an ice cream shop. The menu is traditional Chesapeake fare and is well-executed. In addition, the prices are substantially better than at Cantler's. Example: Cantler's $31 soft shell dinner came with 2 crabs and frozen fries. At Harris, your $25 entree gets you not two but four soft shell crabs, hand cut fries, fresh vegetables, and cornbread. The crab cakes are excellent, and if you're there in-season, you'll enjoy local Chesapeake hardshell blue crabs which are well-priced. The extra drive definitely gets you some extra value. The food is always fresh and I've always had great service.

Classic Maryland crabhouse with fresh crabs and tons of seafood (fried and otherwise). Great location on the Bay with indoor/outdoor seating. Huge place, always busy even on weekdays. Great day trip from D.C.!

Absolutely no complaints! Awesome crabs, good corn, shrimp and wonderful service (Katherine was great) don't sweat it if you can't sit outside the view is cool from inside as well. Keep in mind You have to share tables but what better.... crabs and new friends. Great stop for crabs and things.

There are several places in this area for seafood. I was glad we picked this one. It's on the water so you get a nice view while you eat. The prices are reasonable for this sort of place. Some are market prices, but still a good selection to choose from. I got a steamed sampler for $17 and the portions were good. Our server was quick and thoughtful. They had an extensive beer selection if you don't mind it bottles. The draft selection was small. The tables and dining area was clean, despite all the seafood parts flying everywhere. The bathroom ... was gross. That loses a star from me.

My Yelp friends have gotten this one correct. The food here was quick and outstanding. We had fried clams, soft shell crabs, alligator bites and hush puppies. All were tasty and delicious! Easy place to get to on the way home from the Delaware and Maryland beaches and right on the water for a nice view.

So unfortunately this place was one of the worst serving experiences and salty-ist crabs we've ever had. Some of the crabs we had were clearly dead before they were cooked. Which left a sour taste in our mouths after the already slow and unattentive service. We had a great day at the beach and wanted some food after all the fun in the sun. Google all you can eat crabs and harris popped up. It sounded great. We got there at 7, were told to seat ourselves and promptly waited 15 min for our server to come over. We finally ordered our beers and 3 crab feasts. Then waited 10 min for the beer and 30 min for our first tray of crabs! We watched 1 table get their apps and entrees, and another table get their second tray of crabs before our first tray of salty crustations arrived. The worst part was that you could tell our server was ignoring our table. I'm not sure if she forgot or the kitchen got weeded, but we were only ever told they'd be out shortly. Nothing was done by our server to sooth the situation, and so by the time we got the crabs none of us really wanted to be there. But we'd had too good of a day, so maybe the crabs would save the service. And in some respect they did. They were big meaty crabs, but only after 2 or 3 the salt in their house seasoning was over powering. In the end the manager was trying to be nice but really, the evening was spoiled long before I called for his assistance.

Reviews seem to be hit/miss here but I can say we definitely had a wonderful experience. You can get seafood anywhere in this area but Harris was no doubt some of the best I've had in years. Softshell crab was killer and even the little things are VERY well made (corn, hushpuppies). It was the kind of meal I ate WAY too much of because I really enjoyed it. Sit out on the deck for a splendid sunset (see photos I posted). Only complaint is that they did not have any decent beers to accompany my excellent food! last note: honest sizing for crabs!

Mike G.

Was in here after shopping into area and this was a damn good idea. My wife and I split the Malibu Punch Bucket and the three pounds of snow crab legs and a half pound of shrimp. BEST DECISION. It was well worth it and it was enough for the both of us. Dessert, oh dessert. I ordered the home made nutty buddy. YES IT WAS GOOD. The service was awesome and kept checking on us, but you know how people are when they eat, we are good until we are empty. All the staff were awesome. Definitely check this place out if you're in the area.

When people say "God bless America" I think of places like this. When I finished my meal, I told my SO that he should bring me back here for my birthday just because it was that good. I love unpretentious restaurants that are first and foremost about the food. Portion sizes are ridiculous- if you order any of the "platters" they automatically come with two sides regardless of whether or not its advertised. We didn't know about the insane amount of sides so we were like "apple sauce I guess??" because we were running out of ideas of what to get for sides. Get the hush puppies! I don't even like hush puppies and these were bomb-diggity. They even give you butter for the hush puppies like your arteries aren't hardened enough from the melted 4 oz container of butter they plop with your steamed seafood. I went about trying the hush puppies with the solid butter packets they provided and then realized they just gave me a half cup of melted butter why am I spreading butter on a hush puppy when I could just dump it in melted butter, AMIRITE GUYS? And they serve the "northern style" sweet cornbread which I am all about. Sweet cornbread all the way baby. I had the two lb snow crab platter because it was only 4 dollars more than the 1 lb deal. So good. I have not eaten snow crab for years and this was just off the hook. This is not the best snow crab I've had everrr but they were delicious nevertheless and at a decent price point. And the crab cake was fantastic! It's not jumbo lump but it is mostly crab with little filler. Shrimp was tasty, oysters were tasty, scallops were tasty. And the malibu bucket drink- wow! A little over 11 dollars- that's the price I pay for *one* drink in the DMV. I started to regret it after we were halfway done (it does have like 5 shots in it...)

If you're in Kent Island, this is a great place for seafood. Do note that not all the seafood is locally caught. I got the (1lb) Snow Crab Leg platter with two sides. I went with the hush puppies and corn on the cob. For a pound, you get two clusters. The crab legs were very meaty and can be pretty filling with the sides. However, if you are really hungry, it probably will not fill you up. The hush puppies are really good too. You can get it as your side, but they also offer basket portion. The corn was sweet and not overly buttery. Sit outside on the upstairs level. You get an amazing view of the marina, especially when the sun is setting. The server was friendly and attentive. They have All-You-Can-Eat crabs on weekdays.

Perfect place to stop and eat great food!!! We ordered raw oysters, mini seafood bucket, baby back ribs, and crab dip was amazing!! Our waitress, Barbara was very friendly. Price was fair $72 total. Definitely recommend this place! The oysters were fresh and had good size. I love their signature seasoning, it's similar to old bay. The mini bucket was perfect size for one hungry person but could feed two. It came with 2 medium crabs and I was able to order an extra 2! BBQ ribs were really tender but they could put a little less BBQ sauce, IMO. We sat down on the upper deck(outside).

We go to Harris Crab House once every year to feast on Maryland blue crabs. It's our go-to place because of their "all-you-can-eat" crab deal. Despite the "all-you-can-eat" deal, they serve pretty good blue crabs...and you can eat a lot of them. The restaurant is located right next to the water, so the view is pretty enjoyable. Eating crabs with beer in the hot weather is also fantastic. Unfortunately, their deal is getting less juicier and more expensive. For example, they used to serve shrimps with their deal and the deal was a lot cheaper. Now, the "all-you-can-eat" deal doesn't come with the shrimp, but with two cheap sides. They also charge $50 instead of $40 (not sure of the exact price). We've been going here for five years, so our "tradition" won't change any time soon. But if they keep jacking up the price... we might stop going. Definitely give it a shot.

I've been coming here for years. This is my #1 place to eat crabs. Most of the staff is friendly and attentive. I think I've had maybe one bad batch of crabs since I've come to this place (like 10 years now). My only complaint is the price of crabs this year. $75 for a dozen large seems a bit out there. I'm not sure if this is now the going rate for Maryland, hope not! Scenery, ambiance, and the food are great, you should check it out.

Good food in a casual atmosphere. Service (Beverly) was excellent and friendly. Stopped in on a lark on our way from D.C. to Philadelphia; glad we did! Huge menu to choose from. I had the lobster grilled cheese and it was super tasty. Other items offered at the table (and enjoyed): soft shell crab po boy and the fried seafood platter. Would definitely stop in again if we're ever back this way.

I have never taken to expressing my dissatisfaction with any business publicly because I try to understand that each business is trying their hardest and sometimes people just have bad days. However, my experience at this restaurant cannot be expressed as any less than appalling. I am more shocked than offended in how an establishment can think it's okay to treat a group of customers the way they did. Their servers offended us from the beginning, making it obvious they did not want to deal with our large party. As a bigger group, I can sympathize with their hesitation, but at the end of the day we had contributed an enormous tab of $600+ so it was for their best anyway right? Our servers started off friendly, Mandy and Soraya. It honestly wasn't until we got our bill that we questioned why we were being charged for 4 extra crabs. The server curtly responded that what was delivered was charged but we all went around and held each other accountable for the number of crabs that were ordered and eaten. No matter how many times we did, those 4 crabs were never ordered nor delivered to our table. When we tried to explain this to Mandy, who was the one to take our order, she expressed clear frustration and went back to get her assumed supervisor. A supervisor would be assumed to be someone to quickly take care of the situation or at least try to professionally approach the customer. He rudely asked us "how can you all be sure how many crabs you ate?" ....how could we not be sure? Did we not personally crack them open? We tried to calmly explain to him again and he cut us off by rolling his eyes and scoffing and repeating their apparent mantra "whatever was charged was delivered". One of our members then questioned if he thought we were lying and he shrugged and when we asked if he wanted us to just pay for it out of frustration he replied "I guess not" and a sarcastic "have a nice nap" by slapping our corrected check back onto our table. Again, I have never EVER been pushed to write a negative review on any public site since I've worked in public service, food service specifically, for several years. But I have never experienced such treatment from any establishment. I would like to take a moment to praise the food, but suggest a revision in the management or at least training thereof of customer service. Disgusting.

Such a great hidden gem located right on the Chesapeake Bay. Small dive with delicious food and no pretense. The crab bisque is a must but calorie-conscious foodies check your food diaries at the door. Crab cakes have minimal breaking and are heavy on the meat. Menu has many options for all those shellfish lovers. Oysters, po boys, soft shells, and steamed everything. Only downside is that the menu needs to streamline itself. Tex-Mex fish tacos, alligator on a stick, and too many fried options of fried options.

Went here for Mother's Day with my mom, sister and the fam and to be polite, the service sucked. In fairness to them, every single person from the Eastern Shore was there to eat at the same time but they were definitely not prepared. Waited 90 minutes for a table (no reservations accepted) then one person at the table got their food 30 minutes before everyone else. Then the rest of us got our food, which was "OK" ( and I am being generous) except my sister, who never got hers! We asked 6 times and were told "it's coming"- finally got a manager who confessed it was never ordered. Thanks but no thanks! Defiantly will not be coming back.

This place is *exactly* what we wanted. My husband wanted crab legs and shrimp for his birthday. Although this area is known for whole crabs--I knew we could find good legs too. We went on a rainy cold Saturday evening around 8 and walked right in--no wait. Aside from our appetizer coming out only minutes before our meal (not a big deal) I have nothing but positive things to say. We had the cream of crab soup sampler (excellent), crab dip (good), and the crab leg platter (2 lbs). Legs were hot, meaty, good size and fresh. We ate SO well!! Husband also had the nutty buddy and said even the ice cream tasted home made. Folks should be aware that small parties are typically seated with others at large tables. Not an issue for us but may catch some off guard. Fantastic spot-- we will definitely be back...with the whole family next time.

We find every excuse we can to stop by Harris's for some delicious steamed crab. I have always received great customer service here! The servers are very attentive and make sure you're taken care of. I really appreciate that they replace crabs that aren't very heavy or aren't up to par, no questions asked. Any time I've had a bad crab its been replaced with one twice its size. I'd also like to give a shoutout to Tee, the last server we had when we visited last weekend. She really went above and beyond and I don't generally see that much these days at restaurants. My boyfriend and I were very impressed and appreciated how attentive she was to our table. Overall, a great place to eat! Reasonably priced and perfect every time. I would recommend Harris's to anyone.

Was there yesterday and had a dozen crabs, crab cake (which was gone in a couple bites) and the popcorn shrimp. The food was great. Service was horrendous. The waitress barely came around and drinks took more than 15 minutes. We ordered iced tea - no alcohol. Place wasn't busy, she had a total of 3 tables. Won't be going back anytime soon.

Never heard of this place till a coworker mentioned the phenomenal seafood. I was tempted to order the Oyster Buffet but decided otherwise because it was too much food to have for dinner. I ordered a seafood broiled platter (scallops was large and juicy), came with a small cup of soup. Everything on the platter was very tasty and the seafood was very fresh. Our waitress, Stephanie was very attentive and promptly took care our request for additional sauces or refills.

Tracey E.

I came here twice in one week. The food is really good but the service is horrible. I had the buffalo shrimp, which is amazing. The Brussel sprouts are to die for. The negative about this place was the service!!!! We had a party of 14 and two people didn't get there food until tons of complaining and over 30 minutes after everyone was finished eating. I think the manager handled it poorly and didn't come over to apologize. I would have given this place 5 stars if the service were better. Poor service and poor management will kill a restaurant.

Had aligator on a stick for the first time and to my surprise it was very good. Very well seasoned although everything else seemed over seasoned. My green beans had a lot of pepper and was a turn off. Crab dip was very oily not much for texture it was grounded very fine. Tuna steak sandwich was over seasoned as well, and apparently a medium rare looks a lot like medium well. By far the worst part was the service. Unbelievably slow. The waitress admitted she accidently drank my water when i asked for it a good 12 minutes after she took it to refill it. The 3 tables around us were also looking around and complaining about drinks. Overall there was no sense of urgency from any of the staff members. I like the laid back atmosphere just not when it comes to the service that I'm paying for. From getting seated to getting serviced very sub par.

We travelled from CA to WDC, rented a car and drove over the Bay Bridge. (not my favorite bridge) I overruled my spouse and selected Harris based on Yelp reviews. Sat down and consulted with our waitress Mindy on what to order. I got one crab cake with sides and my wife 4 medium crabs. The beer/iced tea came fine as well as my order and we waited and we waited. As an aside, the crab cake was just okay, cole slaw weak, hush puppies fair. We asked Mindy twice re the crabs. Others who came later got their orders. The place wasn't even that crowded. An hour later, We had not gotted my wife's meal. Finally we said no thanks, time to go. Then the manager shows up and offered to comp the crabs to go. I told him I don't need cooked crabs in the car with a hangry wife. Just pick another option.

My wife and I ate at Harris' a few years ago and had a much better experience. I remembered the crab cake being around the same size as a slow pitch softball. But as I discovered yesterday, it's now way smaller than a hockey puck. And they forgot my wife's side dish and our server disappeared for most of our meal. The stuffed oyster appetizer is really nice. But otherwise, mediocre food and poor service.

Went to this place on 8/31/14 we had a server named Mia. She seemed like the most racist white server I've ever had. She was so attentive to the table next to us which were all WHITE! My table was mixed and she was rushing us. "Ok is that it?! Wtf? I wanted to change my sons order and she said it was too late to change the order..... I've worked at restaurants before and it's NEVER too late to change your order... We spent over $300.00 in that place and were never going back. If you are going there for the "all you can eat crabs" go on the weekdays And all crabs are not from Maryland they are imported from other areas. When you order fried they give it to you in a. Measly cup that holds like 10 fries. The only good thing here is that nutty buddy ice cream I suggest you try other crab spots before you go here.

Prairie S.

Good crabs but crabby wait staff. A fine location but frustrating service leaves you cold. I would say the food here is quite good. The Maryland vegetable crab soup and the fried crabs are all great. The location on the water if you can get to sit on the upper deck is first class...even as the traffic whizzes by on the Kent Narrows bridge it's a lovely spot. The reason why I am giving this place a one star merely is the appalling service. After getting seated I had to wait 15 minutes for a ditzy waitress to come by and say sorry she had missed me. Then she did not serve us water. She brought out soup and then took about 10 minutes to return with crackers. I got up and got them myself otherwise the soup would have gotten cold. The other waiters seemed to be milling around but otherwise being unhelpful. When my entree finally came, I asked for hot sauce, but it took 10 minutes. It's a shame because the location is good but the service is spectacularly poor. For those of us used to attentive service in average restaurants, this place sucks.

Steamed shrimp was delicious, as well as the corn. Baked potato was good. Unfortunately, the salad dressings tasted store bought, and the cold slaw was slathered with too much mayo. But good overall.

AMAZING. I wish I lived in the area so I could eat here all the time. We stopped by this gem on our way home for a weekend getaway. Our server Laurie was super attentive and sweet. There were some things that they were out of but other than that everything was perfect. We all got the snow crab legs and steamed shrimp. Everything was to die for. Also, the portion sizes for the sides are huge! I got asparagus and I am used to 4 stalks max, my plate was overflowing with them. The cornbread that comes with the meals is also delicious. We will definitely be returning if we are ever in that area!

Harris Crab House is a fun place to come and eat fresh steamed crabs! It's an open air casual atmosphere and I like sitting in the lower level because of the water views. Bud lite, Coors lite, Miller lite, Yuengling, and Shock Top was on draft on this day and a pitcher of beer with the crabs is always good. The price of the pitcher was decent too and the all-u-can-eat crab special was $38 including MD crab soup and 2 sides i.e. hush puppies (one of my all time favorites here), corn on the cob, cole slaw, french fries, onion rings, broccoli... There's a variety of good seafood on the menu too as well as other foods for those who like other than seafood. You will find something good to eat here at Harris. Every time I have come here, the waitstaff has been excellent. We always have gotten our refill of the fresh batch of crabs at the right moment, and our drinks were continually coming. Last but not least, I want to commend the homemade nutty buddies for dessert. They are huge and so very good. I love this place. Harris and their steamed crabs make summertime in Maryland a happy and memorable event!

Hope L.

Let me start off by saying I am already planning a trip back!! We got a seat upstairs out on the deck and it was a beautiful day. The crabs were heavy and awesome. I think they put something in there seasoning that makes you wanna come back for more! The crab seasoning is one of a kind for sure. I got the AYCE crab feast that comes with two sides for $38. I choose hushpuppies and fries. Funny because I LOVE hushpuppies and usually look forward to drawing them in butter and eating them with my crabs but this time the crabs were so good I forgot all about the hushpuppies LOL I didn't want to get full off of the hushpuppies but I did try a few fries. They were pretty good. Next time I am going to get corn and hushpuppies. I ordered 4 refills and each time there were 4 - 6 crabs on the tray DECENT SIZES every time. I saw quite a few people eating ice cream after they were done feasting on crabs, mussels, oysters BUT I was too full to try it. Maybe next time. HOWEVER, of course I made room for the good ol malibu rum punch to help all of those crabs I was cracking to go down :-) YYyyuuummyy! Try it! 5 STARS FOR HARRIS!!

Crabs where small,cold,very little old bay and smelt like low tide and that's just the crabs.....I've had better service at Dennys We waited 2 hrs for a table of 12 AFTER the waitresses complained about not wanting to wait on us(who I personally would have left $0 too but my wife made me) it was by far the worst experience for my family...crabs in Florida are better then here.

I absolutely love this place, will be a place embedded in my heart, the food, the company, the memories. After a shopping splurge, came here on a date night with daddy and it was AWESOME! B+: Ambiance: your typical crab house, reminds me of Phillips, Ambers and so forth. I love that it faces the bay but we were there at night so we couldn't see. A+: Soft blue crab - oh goodness, it was battered and fried to perfection! Just the right amount of sodium for yours truly....sodium queen :) A- : MD Blue Crab Cakes - if it's blue and from MD, it's bound to good! However, they could have done a little better on the seasoning, more old bay? haha A+ : Alligator Tails - this was the HIGHLIGHT of the night, daddy spot this and we were just joking because neither one of us ever had alligator, I decided to be bold and ordered. Taste like tough chicken! The citrus flavor was very tangy! I love the flavor of the meat, dad loved it too! F: Homemade Nutty Buddies: Uhhh it's just a really giant ice cream drumstick, damn it. Overall, one of the best date night ever :) I shall be back!

Visiting from California, I'd give this place 4 stars for their prices. 1lb Crab Legs + 2 sides= $22 Lump crab imperial + 2 sides =$29 My friends ordered 2 dozen large blue crab for 3 people and it ended up being way too much! But I believe it was a good deal. Wine is served in a plastic cup :/ Hush puppies are edible but not great. All of our sides were delivered after we already started eating the crab which is weird. None of the hostesses or wait stuff were awful but not memorable either. I went with a big group who happened to be super fun, we wanted crab, and we got it. Tip: go for the crab and expect little from the staff. Ice cream next door is also cash only.

The main reason for the 2 star rating is there soft she'll crab has like no meat in it at all. For the $$ you pay, you'd at least expect to have a little more meat to eat. However their cream of crab soup is AMAZING. i would come back here for the soup definitely. Don't waste ur money on crab, oysters, clams. TERRIBLE!!! Shrimp was ok.

Harris Crab House was recommended to us. It reminded me of a seafood place on Cape Cod. You could eat inside or outside. We arrived around 3:30pm on a Saturday and the parking lot was full. We decided to eat inside since it was hot outside. Once seated it took our Server 15 minutes to appear. The Server at the next table had stated she would go get our S 10 minutes earlier. Our Waitress never apologized for the long delay. I also noted other tables seated after us receiving their drinks and food. We got the hush puppies - they were quite yummy. We also got broiled crab cakes. They were good; I was surprised we did not get a slice of lemon on the plate. At the end of the meal Sally stated she was working in 3 rooms. Maybe this is why she forgot to give us our check.

One year does not a a crab house make, every season can be a different experience. Staff move, sometimes ownership, but Harris's has to be one of the most consistent crab houses on the shore. Unlike the rest the service at Harris's is over the top! I say this because at most crab houses you can die at the table. The crabs are awesome and I have NEVER had a reheat. When we have hit a bad patch, a mention to the server can get you a replacement. We tend to visit in the 3rd -4th week of the moon. Knowing the crabs will be heavier.

I'm giving the four stars for the value for money snow-crab. $26.95 for 2 lb of snow crab cooked perfectly and served with drawn butter and one side. All the crab deals looked excellent value and lots of fun! It's a very casual crab shack environment (although there is seating inside upstairs) and most often packed in the summer. The rest of the menu is pretty standard fair and would really rate more a 2-3.

Our waitress Laurie was totally awesome! We went for a casual supper on the weekend of our 25th wedding anniversary. Laurie was so bubbly and made sure our meal was perfect. The popcorn shrimp appetizer, snow crablegs, hush puppies and corn were delish! Try the Nutty Buddy for dessert :)

Jason V.

Came here because it was the highest rated place. Staff was friendly and service was quick, but the food was not that special. Crab cake was ok. Steamed Alaskan crab legs were cold at the body (almost frozen still). I did enjoy the hush puppies and corn bread. Got a homemade nutty buddy for dessert. It was frozen to the point it felt like I was going to break my teeth biting into it.

We arrived on a hot Sunday early evening around 6:30. The parking lot was nearly full, but we were seated right away at a nice table within their large restaurant. I was disappointed by the service, as it took a while for anyone to acknowledge us. I found the waitress to be friendly, but not helpful to us first time customers. We ordered a lot of food and beer, including soups, appetizers, crabs, crawfish, hush puppies, and oysters. They all came out too quickly, and all at the same time. The MD Vegetable Crab Soup (red) was okay, but the Cream Of Crab soup was horrible and had to be exchanged for the other soup. The server didn't seemed surprised. The Alligator skewers weren't enjoyed by some, but I liked them. However the seasoning was way overpowering, and all I got a sense of was its chewiness, not its taste. The hush puppies were good. The crab meat was delicious, but the seasoning they coat them with is overpowering. I'll ask for it to be lightly sprinkled on if there's a next time. Pounding crabs is a lot of work for a mediocre reward, and after 3 I was tired of doing it. The oysters weren't very good or well presented. We had much better oysters elsewhere on our Chesapeake trip. They were out of crawfish, and didn't tell us until after our other food came. Overall, I felt like I was treated as a tourist, which I was, but don't automatically treat me as such. I was underwhelmed. At least the hush puppies were good.

Decided to stop here after a full day of crabbing. Since we only caught 6 crabs we bought them AYCE blues. First dozen were larges. Each 6 after got progressively worse. Small and then to what it seamed were reheats. The seasoning was wet and slimely on last batch. Two of us only went through 2 dozen total. And upcharge of 1.50 for side baked potatoes? When did potatoes get so pricey? Probably not worth returning. 3 stars because the waitress was very good at her job.

First experience with a Maryland crab house, and I loved it. Admittedly, I struggled in the beginning with my technique, and I still have a lot to work on, but it was so delicious and fun. We drove 45 minutes to get here, and 8 of us were accommodated to a cozy, corner table next to a view of the river. We order 18 Large crabs, lobster pasta, 2 orders of crab cakes w/ fried oysters, fried scallops, bucket of onion rings, crab dip, soft shell crab, 2 pitchers of beer, and some type of punch bucket. This was more than enough for 8 people....we all passed out on the car ride home. Everything was delicious. We'll be back.

Eliza B.

Amazing grilled rockfish! The snow crab legs were sweet and meaty. Hush puppies were crispy on the outside and caky on the inside, with just the right amount of saltyness. Our server, Beverly, was very friendly and offered great service. She was always on top of everything. We definitely plan to come back..again...and...again.
(5)
Rosemary T.

Had lunch on the outside deck since it was such a beautiful day. I ordered a beer and the fried rockfish sandwich. When it came to the table I was surprised to see two small tail pieces--dark oily fish and skin--breaded and fried... not the best cut of the fish to say the least! Kind of a disappointment after reading all the great reviews...

My friend took me here yesterday and I am definitely a fan. He and his family have been coming to this place for years. We had a dozen of the largest crabs they had. I believe they were the extra large ones. The Old Bay seasoning was just enough but not overwhelming. The crabs were definitely very meaty. We had a basket of hush puppies and an order of steamed shrimp and a pitcher of beer. We got there late afternoon on a Sunday and avoided the dinner rush. Definitely worth the trip from DC although it was an all day affair more or less. We finished everything we ordered and did not feel rushed. The staff is very friendly and we attentive throughout our meal.

Drove over the bridge because we wanted to sit out by the water. Got there by 1 pm so we could sit on the deck. The outside deck is open seating. You can sit inside and there are windows, but we wanted to be outside. It is very limited seating on the deck and only a few tables have an umbrella, so if you absolutely want to sit outside, you can go over to Fisherman's across the road. They have a lot more seating on the deck. Tammy was our waitress and was very attentive. We asked for only 6 crabs at a time and she was happy to do that. This way you are eating hot crabs. Also, the menu on the deck is limited so check the menu to make sure what you want can be served outside. We wanted onion rings and so we just ordered them inside and they brought them out. The cream of crab soup is good, but if you don't eat meat, you can't have the Maryland crab, it has beef in it. This is a problem for our daughter so just be warned. They only had medium and larges. We got the larges, which were on the small side, but very meaty and tasty and not a soggy one in the bunch. They are known for their homemade nutty buddys so make sure to get one of those.

Been coming here for years and it's normally been great. However, we had the worst experience this past Memorial Day weekend. Small crabs were being sold as mediums and when I asked the manager (said his name was Bob) about it, he was rude and obnoxious and acted like a total idiot. Don't know how the Harris family, who seem to run a great operation, can employ such a moron that obviously knows nothing about customer service. Somebody dropped the ball on that hire. As an fyi, I have caught and eaten crabs all of my life so I know that when a crab is barely above the legal keeper size that it's a SMALL no matter how you try to spin it.

I will start by saying that I was a tad disappointed. Maybe it was the hype, maybe it was my former attachment across the highway. Who knows. After an intense 3 hour workout, followed by hours of outlet shopping, we were ready to finally eat something! We all started with the clam chowder, and it was boring. I mean, what do you expect...It's clam chowder right? I immediately checked the restaurants website after tasting it, it states the following: "We encourage guests to try a sample of our soups as there are no refunds on soups." Hmm. Coincidence? Probably not. Oysters: Super huge and fresh! This was definitely the highlight of my meal. Definitely one of the freshest oysters I've had! Too bad the waiter did not know what kind of oysters they were.. :( Crabs: $52 / dozen (MP) Crabs were decent, the seasoning was kind of on the salty side, but they were still enjoyable and very fresh.

It's good the crab cake was good but not great. The Flounder was good also but bland needed some spice the same is true with the scallops. The view is great and the place is very clean. I probably should have tried clams and oysters.

Ate the cream of crab and crabcake bites... The cream of crab is very very chunky- flavorful but I like mine a little more smooth. The tarter sauce with my crabcake bites was delicious... Looking forward to trying some actual crabs next time...

(09/21/2013) Great place to get your crabs, Maryland-style. Not a fancy place, although maybe they're trying (a little too hard). Best to stick to the simple and classic fare. Steamed crabs here were the best we've had this season. The larges ($58/dozen) were dense and had very sweet meat; were lightly crusted in the house seafood seasoning (was mostly sea salt, paprika, not much heat) rather than the standard Old Bay or J.O. The non-pickers had a crab cake sandwich (pronounced "good") and the BBQ Shrimp (was wrapped in bacon and slathered in a sweet sauce) over cheddar cheese grits and a side of hush puppies (overly dense and bread-y). Had the homemade Nutty Buddy and Chipwich , both were good, but solidly frozen. Had to bite our way through our ice cream. The Smith Island Red Velvet was very good, moist, many layers, sweet. Service is serviceable, friendly enough. Location is on the water, next to the packing houses, view of the Bay Bridge and a fishing pier. Can be "quaint", can be a little trashy, depends on what you're looking for. Patrons are decidedly touristy (us included).

Wow...just wow. I personally am an avid seafood lover and fresh seafood off the Chesapeake Bay....it can not get any better than this. From the soups to their main entrees it was quite phenomenal. Of course great seafood comes at a great cost so if you're looking for a place to eat and don't mind dropping the big bucks, this is the place to be.

One of the best crab houses in Maryland (AKA The Land of Crabs)! Spacious, old-school crab house right on the banks of Kent Island (not to far across the bridge). Always the best quality crabs at competitive prices. All other dishes are of the freshest quality and definitely don't sleep on the Hushpuppies! If you get a chance, try to sit at the upper level. On a warm, sunny day the staff open the massive windows and you get a great view of the Bay and a much welcomed breeze. P.S. If you still have room after your meal check out the ice cream shop on the dock. It's a nice way to end a great meal. Bring cash though, they don't take credit/debit.

Erin R.

My first venture to Kent Narrows brought us to Harris Crab House. We started off with the cream of crab soup. I mean, cream of crab paste. The soup was far too thick in my opinion and didn't have much meat in it so to speak. For entrees, I ordered a half pound of shrimp. I suppose it was a true half pound, but only seeing 6 shrimp in a basket for $13 was disappointing. A dozen crabs cost us $75 and while they were good crabs, I again felt over charged. Maybe there is a crab shortage? Maybe I'm spoiled by Ocean City $30 all you can eat buffets? Maybe I'm being crabby.

Crabs were delicious, fresh, and meaty! We did order the large and I felt they were a bit pricy but you do get what you paid for. I was stuffed! The crab ball appetizers were also yummy! Barley any fillers and mostly all crab meat. The service was great and attentive. The huge hype of the nutty buddy's was too much. I didn't think it was that special. Will return just for the crabs.

Christine J.

The experience I had here was fabulous! Every time I go it never fails to impress. The atmosphere is casual, and the service is excellent. I recommend the mussels, fish tacos, crabs, calamari and of course! The hush puppies! Try going during happy hour and save lots of money! It's a great place to go after a trip to the beach and a warm summer day to relax on the deck. 5 star all the way!

Food was ok. Extremely loud place but I guess that's expected in a crab shack atmosphere . Prices were fair.

AJ D.

Took advantage of the all you can eat crab special with 2 sides. Not bad for 30 something dollars (i think that was the price) where in a dozen crabs is 45bucks. Do do the math, if u can eat 20 crabs in one sitting, like yours truly, then its totally worth it. Outdoor sitting definitely makes it more legit. Crabs were nice and meaty! Definitely worth the hour drive and the 5 dollar bridge toll to get here LOL.

Christa G.

Delicious! Try the stuffed oysters imperial- so good! Everything we got- crab cakes, oysters, even the vegetable side, cornbread and slaw was wonderful. Well worth it!

Great place for food of the sea. Crab is the lay of the land but the other fish options are good too. Here's the deal... I ordered the Captain Bill's Favorite. Fish, scallops, crab cake and crab soup. It was good but if you're looking for that culinary experience you'd get from a five star bistro, this isn't that place. Don't get me wrong, the food is good, but nothing to pack home in a doggie bag. I would love to come back in the daylight hours to see the view.

Dan S.

Harris crab house was a recommendation from a buddy who said if you are looking for atmosphere and good food , visit it. We did and it didn't disappoint. The views were spectacular and the food was tasty. The crabs seemed like work so I ordered the fried soft crabs, thumbs up! My wife ordered the crab cakes and we both tried the cream crab soup which was excellent.. Hope to be back some day..

Our normal spots were busy, so we decided to go here. BIG MISTAKE ! They were steady but not real busy for a 6pm Sunday evening. Ordered two specialty drinks which were OK. Ordered two surf n turf meals with two sides. The waitress quicly points out that there are UP-CHARGES to get a side salad as a side and another UP-CHARGE for a baked potato with the steak entree !!! The salad arrives in a plastic shell shaped dish that had a toddlers handful of lettuce, The blue cheese dressing was homemade and was blended with lots of dill (green specs) and very little blue cheese crumbles, (they should really see Kentmoor if they want to make a nice homemade blue cheese dressing). The entrees arrive in a decent time. The crab imperial had NO creamy sauce, and was served in a little foil crab looking tin. The Steak was black as the grill was really hot, but cooked as I had ordered it (med rare). The food lacked seasoning the all the paper cups for food service is very off putting. It definitely felt like a tourist trap and there is good reason the other restaurants were swamped and this one was not!! LAST BUT NOT LEAST - their cleaning procedures (or lack there of) are NASTY and disgusting! A family of 6 had crabs at their table, spilled butter and vinegar all over the table. Once they left, the waitress rolled up the brown crab paper and carried it 30 feet to the trash can, carefully holding the bottom since it was dripping and was very week. She returned to the table tok one paper towel wiped up the remaining liquid and quickly put down more crab paper. Maybe a little disinfectant would be nice!

Beautiful view, good service. Since I don't eat crabs, I cannot comment on the crabs. The tomato pasta was okay, the noodles were overdone and it was cold. 50% of the 8 that went got sick and had to run to bathroom 4-5 times that evening. I usually dont like the overwhelming smell of seafood, but it was nicely ventilated and clean. I would try this place again, but def tell them to make the pasta extra hot.

I feel obligated to review this restaurant. From the moment we walked in it was everything I wanted in a seafood joint by the water. The food was fantastic (the local oysters especially) the beer was cold, the sunset over the bridge was fantastic, the crab cake was awesome, service perfect....everything I wanted. Quality seafood is not cheap these days. It's just a fact. If you want cheap, go to red lobster and have some crap. This place is a real treat.

Friend # 1 - "It's ginormous." Friend # 2 - "And it's so hard." This refers to the homemade Nutty Buddies. If you're a fan of dessert and Nutty Buddies, this is the place to get it. The ice cream is almost healthy tasting - a lot less "cream" and a lot more "milk". Some of the other items to get at this restaurant: - Shock Top Beer - tastes like Blue Moon; also served with an orange - Fat Tire Beer - Belgian Wheat Beer; little bit bitter - All You Can Eat Crabs - roughly $33 a person (depends on the market). There is a caveat noted on the menu that the restaurant does buy their crabs from other locations that are not within the Kent Island, MD location. yelp.com/biz_photos/jDsyâ€¦ - Cajun Mac & Cheese - pretty good. Described on the menu as "Savory Mac & Cheese with Crawfish, Shrimp, Scallions and Roasted Red Peppers and Bacon with a Blend of Smoked Gouda and Sharp Cheddar" for $12. Sounds pricey... but gosh darn, it's how Mac & Cheese is done. It tastes mostly like Crawfish and Shrimp with a little bit of Macaroni and a lot of cheese. With the cheese - it does taste salty, but still fully worth your money. yelp.com/biz_photos/jDsyâ€¦ TIP: Check In Special on FourSquare. $5 off with a $10 purchase with American Express.

Sat 8/24/13 4:30PM $68.00 dozen large jimmy crabs $5.25 homemade nutty buddi and a whole lotta fried appetizers... First and foremost, the 5th star is for our waitress, Danyelle. Her service was immaculate. We ordered two bowls of soup, fried oysters, a basket of fries, a basket of hush puppies, and a Cajun mac 'n cheese. The only thing that was not to our liking was the Cajun mac 'n cheese...we found it a bit salty and the bacon flavor too overpowering. And now for the crabs, they were excellent.! About 67% of them were packed, fully with meat. And those of you who know the real deal, I cannot wait return and feast on them when they are 80-90% packed right before winter. Make sure to get a nutty buddi for dessert or one for the car ride home...

Disappointed in our visit here. The food was mediocre and the service was slow. The oysters were good, however the clams were terrible and the calamari was barely acceptable. For a seafood place, I expected better. We went during a swing time so I don't know if they don't provide good food during less busy times or what.

I really enjoy their crabs. It is one of the best in Maryland that I have tried. Their crabs are very fresh and not too salty. It is cooked just right. I love sitting outside on the patio looking over the water on a nice breezy day. Make sure you save some room for Nutty Buddy!

Great place over looking the Narrows. Easy on and off from 50. Great happy hour, casual dining, great for parties upstairs too. Great prices on everything, especially crabs. And try their frozen Sunday cone for dessert! The reason only 4 stars, lots of stairs. Not easily accessible if handicapped.

I thought this place was great for a casual meal. We went for a business lunch, and we got in and out pretty quickly. Everyone seemed happy with their choices. I had the shrimp platter with fries and hushpuppies. Pretty generous portions and everything was good. The one less star was for the service. It was terrible but just lacked any sort of personal interaction. (They weren't that busy and the person who seated us asked me "how many" on the way out - I was waiting for my group).

Wicca D.

What a disappointment. We were stuck in a dark corner while the rest of the restaurant was full of light. My husband ordered steamed crabs. The only size available was medium. He said they were below average, small, tasteless, lukewarm and didn't seem fresh. The corn on the cob was mealy and hadn't had the silk removed. Also served lukewarm. My daughter had king crab legs - they were the best, probably because they were frozen and sent from Alaska. She wanted a baked potato, but the restaurant ran out while we were waiting for our food. They brought potato salad instead, which got one taste and was left to sit. Our friend had catfish, which was oily and very fishy and mushy. I had rockfish which smelled as if it had not been near water or a rock in a very long time. It had a strong fishy taste and I ate a few bites. It was served with fries, which were obviously straight from the school cafeteria school of fries. The fries were also lukewarm, dry and stale. I ate 3. My biggest hope is none of us have food poisoning. I give this restaurant the lowest rating ever of any place I've eaten. If there was a way to do no stars, I would. 4 times ugh.

Harris Crab House, is a must for any seafood lover, either make it a day trip or on your from / to the beach this is a great stop for crabs and other seafood. Fresh from Maryland's liquid treasure chest, crabs here are locally caught and steamed in house. One of the best deals during the summer months is their all you can eat deal. Medium to large male crabs, corn on the cob and hush puppies, all for less than $40, that's not a bad deal, when a dozen of extra large can be triple that at times. Crabs are seasoned well and not too overly salty. Their hush puppies are what you would expect when ordering them, and the corn, when in season is picked locally and sweet. Sitting in their massive open first floor, or opt for their 2nd level indoor / outdoor seating, either way you will be able to relax and enjoy the scenery. If it gets too late though the Red Eye Dock bar becomes the only thing you'll hear if you're sitting outside, that's including the person across from you at the table, :-). With just right prices, and a larger selection of fresh seafood, than most places west of here, Harris Crab House is a great stop and a must to try if you love seafood. 4 stars!

We were looking for a down and dirty crab house, the sort of place where they use brown paper as a table cloth and mound the crabs up in the middle of the table for you to have at it. If your looking for the same, then this is the place for you!!! We were in Laurel for my college graduation and we made the trek over here for a celebratory lunch afterward. Well worth the hour or so drive. Harris Crab House is located just on the other side of the bay bridge toward the end of one of the piers. We were initially concerned there would be a long wait, but we were seated immediately even though the parking lot was packed with cars and there was a decent size crowd mulling about in the parking lot. We ordered a couple of apps to share (boiled shrimp, hush puppies (yum) and some other stuff I can't remember. What was memorable was the two dozen large crab that we ordered!! These kept us busy for well over an hour and by the time we were done our table looked like a crab massacre had occurred. Prices seemed reasonable and all in all I definitely think we would pay a return visit.

One of the best crab houses I've been to in the area! Friendly staff, casual environment. Raw oysters were heavenly. Crabcakes were good, but not really well seasoned (hey, I'm from New Orleans so it may be perfect for others). The garlic aioli was divine! Great as a dipping sauce for the calamari and I used it on the crabcake too! I will definitely be back.

How can you go wrong with a sunset meal on a Friday night complete with crab and other seafood goodness?! You can't. Not at all. Harris Crab House did not disappoint. We decided to not do the AYCE crab and instead just ordered 2 large crabs each. They were filling and more than enough for us. We also ordered the popcorn shrimp and the bbq shrimp. Both were delicious and SO MUCH food! The service was great and the laid back atmosphere was perfect for outdoor dining. Go and enjoy!

Pretty good. I wanted seafood, and I'm nostalgic for the cheap places from my childhood in Savannah, GA, and Lowcountry SC: no frills fried/steamed seafood places right by the creeks with super-fresh seafood. This is the closest I've found to that in 20 years. (The ones in SC and Georgia all either closed or went too upscale when the local fishing fleets went away. Fried frozen imported shrimp suck.) My girlfriend and I ordered a dozen crabs, hushpuppies, and coleslaw. All were good. Crabs weren't local due to a slow season (cold spring weather, I assume), but they were fresh from Louisiana. (Not completely fresh: I think one of mine was dead when they cooked it.) They're steamed and generously doused in Old Bay. Hushpuppies are smaller than what I'm used to, so the centers are a little drier than I like, but they were good, and the coleslaw is above average. Atmosphere is a little touristy and a madhouse for Sunday lunch. (Granted, we were there on Memorial Day weekend. I'm guessing a weekday trip would be nice.) Interior is a bit kitschy, but not bad - nice touch of mostly using old oyster cans. Service was friendly but harried, but I think that was mostly from hitting them at the end of Memorial Day weekend. For a weekend meal, I'd recommend going very early; second-best bet would be getting there very late like we did (around 2:30 p.m.) The nutty buddies are a cool idea, but I can't say they're particularly good - pretty tasteless ice cream and chocolate. Get one to share just to check that box, but I wouldn't bother with them on a subsequent trip. I'll be back in the fall for oysters.

Best crab house in Maryland! Definitely try and sit outside, upstairs so you can overlook the water while you eat! Their cream of crab soup is amazing! Huge chunks of crab in every bite! And their crabs are always fresh and huge! Raw oysters are fresh and yummy as well! Definitely save room for their huge hush puppies!

Get a pail of cherrystone clams and a cup of oyster stew! Our waiter was friendly and offered great suggestions. And even though it was a very busy New Year's Day with a full house, service was quick and good. There are better views at other places nearby but the food here is better.

AMAZZZZZING!!!! The creamy lobster soup was so good!!! And there was a good amount of lobster in it. I ordered the crab cake with veggies. It was the best I've had in the DMV area. The only bad thing was that the asparagus was overcooked. Service is friendly and attentive.

Thank you Brandi and all of the Harris Crab House staff for making my 55 birthday so memorable. We arrived Friday afternoon after calling all week to make certain they had crabs. They did and were thrilled. We were seated by the window which had a view of the floating ice since the temps were so very cold. We were greeted by Brandi who was so charming. The perfect mix of friendly and great service! We has the Crab Feast which was $32 per person. Mostly female crabs, 1/2 pound of shrimp and corn. Corn was not great for me but hubby liked it. One of the things I really liked about the service was how they served the crabs. The first time we got 12, then 8 then 6 then 8...I know, I know...we really enjoyed them. The fact that they did not bring them out by the "dozens" meant they were always hot which was great! Add a pitcher of beer for $11 and we were in heaven for a few hours. So much so we went back twice over the weekend. Later Friday night, they had an Oyster Feast. I don't care for Oysters so I enjoyed the ambiance, Brandi's service and a couple glasses of wine. On Saturday night we went back for more crabs. Although they did not advertise it, they had another crab feast with females only. Again for most people it might have been a disappointment but hubby prefers females so we were thrilled to pay only $32 each again for AYCE. Add to that they changed the TV to a great BB game (Michigan V Michigan State) and it was a great time. Thank you to Barbara the other "B" who was our waitress on Saturday night! We will see you all again in a few months!

stopped in for a quick crab cake sandwich and a beer on my way to the airport in Baltimore. Overall a nice clean place that dishes out some very good crab cakes. Would have loved to had more time to go through the menu a bit more and will make it a point to return the next time i'm in the area.

I ran out of stars! This place is delicious ! I'm a self-proclaimed crab snob and Harris Crab House is right on the money! First time trying crawdads and couldn't stop eating them. We wound up inhaling 3 pounds! The nutty buddy was delicious home made ice cream that kept itself together without dripping down all over itself. Someone had mentioned in a previous review that the crabs were only from Maryland . Well that's not the case in the off season. They come from Louisiana during the winter, there is no crabbing in Maryland in the winter months. During the regular season they are pulled out if the Chesapeake waters. I must say I do enjoy a Lousiana crab more so than Maryland or Jersey. Even the Texas crabs are delicious . They are pulled out of the warm Gulf waters ... The service was fantastic. Our waitress Steph came to our table and wrote her name on the brown paper cover. Which is a clever idea if the icy cold beer causes A temporary lapse in memory! I wasn't really happy with the fact that I couldn't buy a t shirt as the end of our evening . The two girls cashiers said that they already closed out the register. I thought that was pretty crappy of them. Why couldn't they get a manager to sell me one then record their sale tomorrow? I think that was pure laziness but that's just my opinion. Overall , I do reccomend and I will be returning next month in April . This time I will get my shirt early!

All you can eat crabs in a restaurant with a nice view to the river...Yes, you can't go wrong?! We had lots of fresh crabs, tasty shrimps and corn on the cob. We tried the crabs with some spicy seasoning and without it. Definitely we prefer the seafood without seasoning (the European way), just boiled with salt. it's more authentic. The waitress was super nice and helpful.

I really enjoy Harris Crab House. If we are going crab-picking, it is our back-up to Kentmorr, but it always is delicious. You can get a crab feast for $30 (at least in December 2011!). Most recently, I took my mother there and didn't get the crab feast but opted instead for a cup of the Maryland Crab Stew and the oyster po' boy sandwich. Both dishes were excellent. The crab stew had 3 whole crab claws in it (which granted, was startling to pull up on my spoon -- so look out and don't bite the claw!) and lots of other crab meat. The soup was also good because you can taste the vegetables and they don't put too much Old Bay in it like other places. The oyster po boy was delicious also! The oyster were succulent and had just the perfect amount of fry on them -- crunchy and light. The roll was buttered and slathered with a nice tangy tartar sauce. My mother got a broiled platter that included a cup of soup, broiled flounder and scallops and a crabcake. She enjoyed it all! The service was also great. This is not a fancy place -- the tables are covered in paper and the soup comes in styrofoam cups with plastic spoons. The sides are also a bit underwhelming -- the coleslaw I had was odd -- it had cubes of cabbage. I just didn't understand it. The hushpuppies were oblong so more fried than dough. They also only have Pepsi sodas (I prefer Coke!). But other than those minor gripes, this place is a real winner! :) Great for a taste of the Eastern shore -- the menu seemed to have a lot of variety and good options.

Ordered a dozen large crabs and feasted on these fresh crustaceans encrusted in old bay. Decently priced and meaty too. We also ordered a cup of crab soup, which was a bit too salty and a bit too dense. They could really water it down a bit for better consistency. We also ordered cole slaw, corn on the cob and french fries, which were all safely done well, but are difficult to mess up anyways. The finish was comprised of 2 ice cream cones. The stale waffle cone held a giant (when I say giant, I mean giant!) mountain of vanilla coated in hardened chocolate. The ice cream is really big so be sure to share it with 2-3 people. It was, however, a sad finale considering that it was super frozen, super big and tasted old.

Always amazing, when my family comes down, this is always the place they want to go. This place is the bar i compare all other crab houses to and nothing has come close yet.

Crabs GALORE! Literally stuffed myself with silly with sweet, succulent crab meat until I my hands were numb and my stomach could handle no more. Luckily, I was able to save a wee bit of space for some perfectly steamed peel'em jumbo shrimp (highly recommended!). Washed it all down with some dirt cheap margaritas and pitchers upon pitchers of beer, and called it a night. Really. Unbeatable. It's wasn't just how great the food was, but really the whole experience. Sitting out on the balcony on a lazy summer evening with the lovely view of the Chesapeake at sunset was the absolutely the icing on the cake. *note* Make sure you wear some dark or old clothes if you're going for the crabs. I warn you: it can get very, very messy!

David W.

An old favorite - with good reason. We called around, and they had the best prices on crabs. We got some of the best extra large crabs I have had all year, the shrimp were jumbo and delicious, the king crab legs were monstrous, sweet. and delicious. The bucket of rum drink was tasty, but with all the ice not quite as amazing a deal as the "32 ounce" description makes it sound... But still a good drink. Also, amazing service - could not be happier unless it was closer to my house!

Great atmosphere, good food. Very satisfied. Good prices too. Lots of choices for kids. Great for non seafood lovers too! Loved everything about it. Will be back

Holy Crabs! Large, I mean LARGE, succulent sweet steamed crabs. The Old Bay-like seasoning that are sprinkled on the shells is on the salty side, so you want to get just the right amount onto the crab meat to enhance its sweetness, without over-salting it. The crabs are priced by size. The LARGE we'd ordered are fairly meaty and big already, but there are 3 sizes above that (Extra Large, Jumbo, and Colossal) although not available on the day we went. Yes, I will be dreaming about colossally large crabs until I have a chance to return. We also had steamed shrimps; they were large and delectable, had the same seasoning salt as on the crabs. The famous nutty buddie dessert didn't make a fan out of me. The ice cream is frozen solid, too cold too hard to get a taste of. The restaurant is sizable yet cozy. Recommend you get outdoor seating on the upper level.....and enjoy the view.

Stopped at harris again a few weeks ago. It was Monday around lunch and we really didn't know where else to go and had a couple hours until we got home. I have to say that the food was sooooo much better than on my last few visits. I really liked my soft shell crab sandwich and the fish tacos were delicious. The beer was still cold. I was so down on Harris before this visit, but they are back on my beach food stop list again. I like tradition.

Summer isn't summer without some crabs.... dozens and dozens of crabs. So what sets Harris Crab House apart? ALL YOU CAN FREAKIN EAT. For just under $30, Monday through Friday, you can get all the crabs you can eat + a half-pound of steamed spiced shrimp + corn on the cob. So it was, on our way home from the beach, that we swerved the short way off of Route 50 and stopped at Harris, located right on the water by the Kent Narrows bridge. Like the grand finale of every fireworks show, three of us capped off our camping trip in style... by feasting through four dozen crabs. Not counting the few hollow/nastified ones, I think we ate about 15 each. Dining on disgusting amounts of delicious sea critters just happens to be one of my special talents. I was actually surprised that any of the crabs had smelly hollow issues at all. Usually, when I've come to Harris, the crabs have been the freshest and meatiest, but this time there were a couple of bad ones in the bunch... it's forgivable though, because the remainder was of the fresh and meaty kind. The crab seasoning -- an in-house blend, not Old Bay -- was lip-stinging spicy. And I discovered that dipping the crab meat in vinegar actually tastes good! If you find you have room for dessert, their nutty buddies are yummy in a nostalgic ice cream truck kind of way. It's like a King Cone, only homemade. There's also an ice cream shop right outside the restaurant. Harris offers indoor and outdoor seating, and both have the authentic Maryland crab shack tablecloth known as the brown paper. Try to get a seat with a view of the water... it's Maryland culture at its finest. Though some will tell you to go to Cantler's Inn, I'm partial to Harris Crab House. The view is better, the place is roomier, and there's ayce. Just note... you need to have your full party with you to get seated. Also, if you'd rather feast at home, they do take large orders to go.

Overall: great crabs and corn, totally casual setting and super friendly,but a bit slow and disorganized, service ( eg meal came out in separate pieces, the 1 person in our group not having crabs waiting a long time for his food, the corn came way last). All along the waitress was super nice and friendly and we didn't mind. Great way to spend a summer afternoon!

(This visit was on Friday 9/7/12.) We walked in and got the impression that the staff wished we'd just walk back out again. It took us forever to wave down a waitress and get seated, and when we said we wanted to sit outside and see the water she just vaguely motioned us up the stairs to another set of hostesses who were busy giggling among themselves. If we weren't starving after a plane ride at this point we would have just walked out. The food itself was good, but nothing exceptional. I had crab cakes and an appetizer of the clams casino (I've heard of that dish, but never had it and was always under the impression that it was gone the way of the dodo and chicken cacciatore.) Our actual waitress gave us fine service, but the not-so-warm welcome left me unwilling to recommend this place.

Wow Great Seafood, If you're ever stuck in traffic on the Kent Island bridge you have to try out this place, right on the water.

Cant get enough of Harris Crab house place is open all year round! so not just a place for the spring/summer! Prices are good and food is fan freakintastic! Corn on the cob with old bay style seasoning on it is awesome! Pink Lemonade is off the hook Crabs were nice and meaty and not just filled with air, these things were pretty good! (Large size crabs) Shrimp was nice and tasty and not fishy like other places and pretty damn big! definitely happy this place is open year round!. Staff is supper friendly and attentive also which gets good ratings from me, plus the food is good. so all and all this place is top of the list for seafood.

Overall experience is definitely a 5! Crab imperial, crab cakes, tater tots and corn bread was so darn delicious! I wouldn't recommend the ribs though; they were a bit overdone and dry. Beautiful deck!

Brought the family here with my parents during our visit from California. We enjoyed just about every appetizer on the menu as we wanted to try a variety of the seafood. We were very satisfied all the way around the table. Great place to visit as this is the third or fourth time we have been here and will return.

I suppose some people would find it ludicrous to drive nearly 90 minutes to have crabs, when there are perfectly mediocre crab houses a mere 30 minutes away. However, those people are obviously not foodies like my dear family. To my family, there is no distance too far for "good eats" (my dad has been known to go all the way up to NYC for lunch, then come right back home to Maryland)...and when prime seafood is the "entree du jour", not enough crazy $3 per gallon gas prices could keep them away (obviously, this was back in October). So, all the way from Rockville, I shlepped my hapless family (and extended family from LA and Taiwan), to Harris' for crabs. The "adults" (my parents, aunts and uncles) ordered from the menu, while the "kids" (my brother and 4 cousins) had the "all you can eat crab buffet". Now, when my family hears "All You Can Eat", we view this as a personal challenge to our family honor (lester k, I believe you will understand this like no one else will). It's not enough that we eat until the manager comes over as asks us to please leave...but we must eat to a point where an entire species is on the brink of extinction. So with this attitude - my brother and cousins attacked the "all you can eat" crabs, while I ordered from the a la carte menu for the older crowd. The 3 dozen hot fresh x-large crabs that I ordered for the "adults table" were meaty and hot and so incredibly sweet. Every crab was ladened with delicious and tender crab meat as only fresh Chesapeake Bay Blue Crabs can produce. The bucket of plain steamed cherry-stone clams were devoured a heartbeat, and my dad was scooping up the last remaining juices of the garlic mussels with empty shells. The oysters-on-a-half-shell were marvelously fresh, perfectly chilled and delicious. We ordered a side of hush puppies - and while everyone originally sneered at such a plebeian dish, the hot, sweet, crispy hush-puppies quickly lured my family into asking me to order another round. My brother and cousins faired a little less well on their "all you can eat" crabs. As often with these "all you can eat" deals, the quality of crabs were not up to the standard of the "adults' table", in that the crabs were small sized, and were not served steaming hot and fresh. Even still, my brother and cousins polished off 60 crabs, plus a plethora of sides (hush puppies, cole slaw, corn on the cob, potato salad, onion rings, and french fries) that the waitress kept bringing over in hopes of stanching the decimation of an entire crab colony. We ate until we were the last table remaining - and my brother and cousins could have still gone for yet another dozen or two, but at this point, my dad and uncles were ready for their next meal, and wanted to leave to hunt for more food. The wait staff was wonderfully funny and attentive. Our poor waitress did seem a little perturbed by the "kids table", as she nearly lost a hand when she took too long to set down a tray of crabs, but once our waitress realized that our two tables were not enough for one mere staffer, she had two other waitresses continuously checking up on us while she was running back for yet another round of crabs. So why the 4 stars? Because prior to our arrival - about 20 minutes before - we called ahead to get ourselves on the list. We had a large party (we had first called the day before, and they told us that they only needed a 20 minute warning to get us a table...and we took them at their word), yet, when we arrived, we still had to wait around for 40 minutes. Now, for some people this may seem normal, but my family doesn't wait - and we certainly don't like to wait for crabs. This has happened to me once or twice before here, so it really shouldn't be a surprise, yet it annoys me that when we pre-plan and call ahead to notify a restaurant that a large party is coming in 20 minutes (we were on the road, and let them know that), when they don't act upon it, and become "frazzled" when we get there! However, I do have to say, the wait staff was fantastic, and the view of the water with the setting sun couldn't be paralleled. My dad was so impressed (and he normally refuses to come back to any restaurant that has made him wait longer then 15 minutes), that he has stated that the next time he's in the mood for crabs - this is where he's coming.

First off, let me state that any bad choices in food are strictly my fault. Now, with that caveat out of the way Harris Crab House is an amazing seafood house, just on location alone! I always dread going to a seafood restaurant, mainly, because I know my bank account and credit card are going to take a big hit. The food here was by no means "cheap" but it was not unreasonable. We enjoyed mussels, clams, fried calamari, crabs, boiled shrimp, oyster platters and it came to a lot less than I had anticipated (dreaded). The calamari was excellent, crispy and not rubbery on the chew. The oyster platter was very good and the oysters tasted briny (in a good way) and sweet. The clams and mussels were steamed in garlic butter and damn near led to addiction. We ordered a second helping of mussels. The soft shelled crab was deep fried with a bread crust, which added to the flavor. We each had an oyster shooter followed by, what else, another oyster shooter. Vodka and oysters, helped make the sunset that much more fantastic. Now, to my caveat. KEEP AWAY from the all you can eat Ribs N Shrimp, it is a waste of stomach space. While the rib meat is of the baby-back variety, that quality is ruined by boiling them and then slathering them with a ketchup sauce. The shrimp were tasty, but we would have been better off ordering more clams and mussels, with lots and lots of the garlic butter sauce (screw the diet) and bread. I have already submitted my request that upon my return to the east coast Harris Crab House must and will be a food stop.

Most of the reviews of Harris Crab House are spot on; if you are looking for a casual, seafood restaurant that specializes in crabs and local seafood, this place is your spot. My fiance and I decided not to order the regular Maryland crabs because we were in a little bit of a rush. Sara ordered a crab cake sandwich and I had soft sell crabs, my soft shells were decent but not stellar, slightly overcooked. Sara really enjoyed her crab cake sandwich so much so that I did not even get a bite. We also ordered vegetables as sides, broccoli specifically and I would not recommend anyone doing that. The broccoli that came out looked like mutant Broccoli that was tasteless. I had the hush puppies and they were good. Overall, the place was worth the stop but again think of hole in the wall seafood place, I do also agree with some of the reviews that the seafood was pricey than I thought it would be, so if you thinking this will uber-cheap hole in the wall this not your place.

Second year in a row I've come here with my office for an event. We rent out the outside area and it's just a great experience. The crabs are some of the best I've ever eaten. Juicy, full of meat, and just taste delicious. We also get the fried chicken -- which is also great. The breading is...I'm not sure how to explain. It's not super crispy, but the chicken is still yummy, and the breading doesn't TASTE bad, it's just not what you really expect for fried chicken. Steamed shrimp is yummy. Not too hard to screw that up though. The cornbread is AMAZING. I am usually not a fan of corn bread. I just hate super dry cornbread that needs massive butter to allow you to swallow. This corn bread is FANTASTIC. It's super moist and has almost a cake like texture -- also a tad sweet. It is nothing like a super dry corn bread that you can taste the corn meal (so if that's what you really enjoy, you probably wouldn't enjoy the corn bread here). It's easy to declare you could just have a meal of the corn bread here. And always end the meal with a GIANT homemade nutter-butter ice cream cone. It's HUGE. The staff are friendly and quick to refill drinks. (Again, I've only been here with large groups, so we usually have 2-3 waitresses devoted to our party, so this may be be a misconception t o usual dining). The one complaint I have is there are no "trash buckets" they put on the table for discarded scraps of crab. If you have 20 people crab picking at a table, some sort of bucket or ANYTHING would be nice to put the uneaten bits in. Creating massive piles in front you just gets messy. Overall a fantastic place to spend an afternoon eating amazing seafood. This is the real deal folks. This is the kind of place that serves real, delicious sea food.

I am a local, this place caters to tourists and tourists alone. Locals do not go here. Why? Let me count the ways... 1) Expensive 2) Shit Quantity 3) Carters to tourists 4) Expensive 5) Caters to tourists If you are a tourist, you are in luck! This place caters to you.

we had the waterman's catch and ordered extra hushpuppies.The crabcake was excellent....no fillers. Cole slaw made on site was fresh and good. Softshell, shrimp, scallops and oysters were really nice. The two of us shared this marvelous dish and then the hubby asked for a Nutty Buddy.

We arrived on Mother's Day at 11:00 a.m. and were promptly seated (less than 5 min. wait) outside on the rooftop deck which overlooked the water and a drawbridge. Our server was in a great mood which also put us in a great mood! We inquired about the crab prices and ended up ordering a dozen of medium male blue crabs, a shrimp platter, a side salad, two draft beers and water. The salad came out first, very fresh (lettuce, cucumbers, grape tomato, & red onion) with the dressing on the side. They brought us the crabs next. Our server informed us that we were missing four crabs because "they felt that those were too light and they wanted to replace them with heavier crabs which were being steamed"! What restaurant does this? Most restaurants are like you get what you get - don't like it, don't come back. I was so surprised and pleased! The crabs were good, nicely seasoned. Some were better (heavier, fuller) than others. My rule of thumb is to always look at the "mustard" inside the crab -- if its bright yellow, its going to be a good crab. Some were yellow others brown and a couple were muddy and papershells. They said on their menu that they try to get Maryland Crabs, depending upon availability, but sometimes they get them from other places such as Virgina, the Carolinas and (I think) Florida. On the tables they have a box full of condiments - Crab Seasoning, Ketchup, Cocktail Sauce, Vinegar, Salt & Pepper, etc. I also asked for butter and some condiment cups which were brought out promptly. The steamed shrimp platter consisted of about 10 average size shrimp (I didn't actually count them), cornbread, and two sides of choice (we chose fries and coleslaw). The shrimp was perfectly cooked and seasoned, easy to peel. The cornbread was delicious and sweet. The slightly battered fries were hot and crisp and the coleslaw tasted (and may have been) homemade. If we didn't have to be back home [over the Bay Bridge] by 1:00 p.m. I would have stayed longer and ordered dessert. We packed up the leftover crabs and my son in law and husband finished them off when we got home. This restaurant is good for all types - small to large groups. All your party must be present to be seated. They have plenty of seating indoors and out. You do have to go up a flight of stairs to get to the main restaurant and if you want outdoor seating you have another flight of stairs to climb. They also have an small outside restaurant to the right of the main restaurant (they weren't open when we got there). Their menu has a large variety of options from seafood to steak. Reasonably priced. Our meal listed above cost $68 + tip. I thought that was pretty good for all we got. As I was leaving I stopped by one of restroom on the main floor to wash my hands. I thought it was kind of odd - its a room with two double sinks and separate stalls (completely closed in) in the back - one for Men and one for Women. It was just weird washing my hands with a guy in the bathroom. I guess I'm use to completely separate bathroom/sinks. Not really an issue, but thought I would mention it. Overall, this is a great place to go, its worth the drive - you should try it. Its right next to the Red Eye Dock Bar. I am looking forward to returning to Harris' Crab House very soon. When I do, I'll update my post.

Tehehehehe. I love this place. So much so that after I found out about it and my brother was coming down to DC for the Rally to Restore Sanity/Fear, I reserved a Zipcar to make sure he tried it. There's a place in CA that my family used to go to that was similar to this in terms of having a giant sheet of brown paper on the table as covering and let you go crazy in devouring the crabs, so it's like a trip down memory lane. First of all, the location is great, try getting there around sunset and a table by the window, it's gorgeous. Host and servers are very friendly and smile a lot. Get the crabs by the dozen - any more and it might get cold before you finish (large is usually good enough) - which is usually covered in just Old Bay (which actually makes it's fairly salty) and pound away with the hammer! POUND POUND POUND! It's so fun! I prefer to dip the crab meat in vinegar, not butter. It cuts the salt a little better. Sides: coleslaw, potato salad, and clam chowder all very good! Appetizers: they have alligator! Not a huge fan, but worth a try! Dessert: decent, nothing too special. To be honest, the food is actually a 3.5, but the location, people, and sheer fun make it a 4 =D

My parents threw the rehearsal dinner for my wedding here. The price was extremely reasonable and the service was excellent. We were given the upstairs room overlooking the water. A crab feast was an excellent way to bring everyone together. It is a very participative meal and allowed relatives from both sides to get to know one another. The marylanders helping the visitors how to pick crabs. I will definitely use Harris for my next large gathering.

My wife and I have stopped there several times over the last few years and it is everything you would expect out of a good non-pretencious restaurant. The cream of crab soup is fantastic and the crab cakes aren't too shabby either. Even when they are busy the service is always good and everything is always fresh and very flavorful.

Harris is the place for crabs. After reading reviews from two of my friends and the bounty of other reviews I decided I would give this place a go. I mean...ALL YOU CAN EAT CRABS plus 1/2 lb. of shrimp and all you can eat corn for $28.50 does not sound like a bad thing. Prior to our going, I warned my family that we needed to go in clothes that we wouldn't mind getting dirty, for those that have not been crabbing before you will get dirty. There will be pieces of shell flying once the action gets started. After a peaceful commute, straight on Rt. 50 for about an hour we were there. As we pulled in, a bus, a charter bus full of people pulled in as well. Seemed like a sign of a good place to go eat. We sat down took a look at the menu but already knew what we wanted. The waitress seemed to know as well. A few moments passed while we waited. To pass the time, my mother stepped out on the balcony and took pictures of the Bay and we enjoyed the view. Not too long after the waitress returned with a dozen crabs on a plastic plate with individual baskets of shrimp and corn for each of our party. We also had fries. We dove right in. The crab was house seasoned which was a bit spicy and salty(sort of Old Bay-ish). I enjoyed mine with the melted butter that the waitress provided readily. After about two and a half hours we were filled with crab, a bit of shrimp, a cob of corn, some fries and ready to go. The fries were unnecessary and frankly nothing special. I feel next time I will not order them. The shrimp that came with the crab feast provided a different texture and easier picking after all the crab cleaning. My hands were tired after those two and a half hours and there was no room for dessert.

Zagat says..."If you're "into crackin' crabs", "get down and dirty" and "dive right in" to crustaceans piled high "on paper-lined tables" at this "rustic", "unpretentious" Kent Narrows seafood house that's "all about sunny days on the deck with a cold beer" "watching the boats slide by"; P.S. "save room for their homemade Nutty Buddies." I would have to agree. This is a get down and dirty place to get crackin. I went last week with a big group of colleagues and the wait was long and the bar was tiny and SUPER busy. We sat outside and ate so much I am not sure how I walked out of there. We had onion rings, steamed shrimp and fried oysters to start. Then trays (and trays) of steamed crabs followed by corn on the cob, fries, hush puppies. This place is not fancy (the crabs come out on fast-food type plastic red trays and all drinks are served in clear plastic cups) and you WILL get messy (don't wear white or anything you would be upset with if it got ruined). And, go for a Chipwich or Homemade Nutty Buddie for dessert.

This is a fine place for fun and crabs. The steamed crabs were very good for early in the season- sweet and delicate. The service was outstanding for our party of 10. Eight people ate the all you can eat crabs which are plentiful & served with 1/2 pound of steamed shrimp and fresh corn on the cob. Our waitress kept our drinks refilled and the crabs coming all evening. Usually all you can eat crabs are not very good and you are given a time limit, but not here. Check it out when you are crossing the Bay Bridge on your way to the Eastern Shore. Call ahead because they don't always offer all you can eat crabs.

Nothing says Maryland like Maryland crabs and Old bay seasoning! Whether you're visiting, or live in the area- Harris' is a great place to go to experience it! If you get the all you can eat crab special, you get a corn on the cob and 1/2 lb of shrimp (the shrimp is delicious!). In my opinion, this is the best deal since you get all the crab you want, which is good since it they don't come with much meat. I read a couple other reviews that complained that it's a lot of work, so they gave Harris' less stars because of that. But c'mon, it's not the restaurant's fault. That's just how it is with Maryland crabs. It's just as much about the experience as it is about the taste. If you don't like to work for your food, try one of the other meals on the menu. They offer other entrees and sandwiches for the less adventurous people. But if you're looking for a Maryland experience, this is the place to go. Be prepared to get messy and the Old bay seasoning smell stays on your hands! But it's a lot of fun and the food is good!

On our way down from Philly to the Eastern Shore, we stopped various places for food/gas, etc. and asked where the best place for crab was and Harris's was unanimously recommended. True to the recommendations, the crab cakes and all other crab related foods were fabulous. We sat out on the top deck and had the real deal Chesapeake Bay experience. In fact, I stopped on the way back home to buy their crab seasoning and unfortunately left my wallet there and didn't realize it until I was back in Philly. Every single person that I talked to about getting back my wallet was so helpful and lovely and by noon the next day, the wallet had been FedEx-ed back to me, completely intact and at no charge, although I offered to pay. So the food and ambience were wonderful and the people who work there couldn't have been more amazing. Fabulous all in all!

Visited Nov 2012: it's casual, kid-friendly, moderately priced, and tasty. Service was good. On a nice day, you can sit with a view of the water.

stopped for dinner after a successful day at Dover Downs Casino. the food was across the board seriously good! Margi had cream of crab soup which she raved about. myself a half dozen raw oysters. i got Combo Crab basket with One Pound King Crab, One Pound Snow Crab, and One Half Dungeness Crab Served with Steamed Red Potatoes and Hush Puppies. Margi got the Stuffed Shrimp which the menu said was 5 but she took home 4 after eating about half the dish. we both agreed the hush puppies were the best we had everf eaten. we got Nutty Buddies to take home with us and they stayed frozen for the ride home. Our server, Kim, was attentive and friendly. a very nice experience!

My husband and I love this place. We ate 1 dozen Large crabs, and they were true to size. The crabs were heavy and tasted great! My husband had the peel and eat shrimp. We have been coming here for years and never had a bad meal. Save the best for last, they have the best homemade Nutty Buddies. This is a true crab house, so if your looking for fancy dining, this is not the place.

We hadn't been here in a couple of years - and decided to stop off yesterday for lunch en route from the beach to DC area. It was great! We were seated promptly. The service was courteous and attentive - we had Heather as our server - very nice and fun. Yes, you must wait a bit for your food to be delivered, but good food takes time! At our table there was Lobster Mac and Cheese (stunningly good), Broiled Crabcake with Fried Oysters (just spectacular), and Softshell Crabs stuffed with Crab Imperial (gotta love a crab stuffed with crab!). The sides - cole slaw, potato salad, onion rings and hushpuppies were all great (I don't even like hushpuppies - and these were really good!). Bottomless pink lemonades for the kids and ice-cold (albeit not bottomless :) Fat Tire on tap for the grown-ups. The food was really, truly great! The dishes tasted like they were individually and carefully prepared to order - not mass produced. We sat downstairs (inside with a/c) as opposed to upstairs (under awning - NOT air-conditioned). The atmosphere is fun with lots of things to keep you (and kids) visually entertained while you are waiting for food. We plan to make this a regular lunch stop when we go back and forth to the beach. Well done Harris Crab House!

Excellent food, quick service, and a casual/fun atmosphere. I have brought out of town family here numerous times with many a positive reaction. This is what you'd expect a good crab house to be. The restaurant is nothing special in appearance, but it is exactly the kind of laid back place you'd want to spend hours picking crabs in.

Mitchell L.

What can I say was bad about this place? Nothing! Actually, other than its odd, seemingly-in-the-middle-of-nowhere location, nothing! The food was fantastic, the service was great, and oh ya, the food was fantastic! Although the time I went, they didn't have any fresh blue crabs in stock, they had their blue crab house chowder which hit the spot on that cold night I went. The appetizers were great and came out quickly; their crab-stuffed rockfish was overflowing with stuffing and packed with flavor; the steamed crab legs of the different variety were fresh and clean tasting. I can't believe the amount of food we ate, and how delicious everything was -- and they didn't even have what I went for! I can't wait to go back, and the next time I'm in the area, I will be sure to FEAST on those blue crabs they're so famous for.

Foodlover B.

I am generous with the two stars. This place was awful. The crab soup was a thick glob served luke warm, it was nasty! The crab cakes had no flavor, had to sprinkle their salt all over it. The sides were fast food quality, nothing memorable. The employees were sitting down and just waved us to a table, they were so uninterested in being there. Such a bad vibe!

Clarence J.

Harris has a great atmosphere, friendly staff, and the food is excellent . . . although I was focused on the steamed crab and shrimp, so I only tried the corn on the cob other than that. But the lone person at our table who ate other things, including the "award-winning crabcake," was suitably impressed as well. (She said she wasn't quite sure about "award-winning" in this area, but it was definitely "an excellent crabcake with a good amount of meat.") The price is great and there's plenty of room in the place for large groups. I'll be back -- there's a HUGE menu, including alligator-on-a-stick, left to try!

Jennifer H.

Went there for dinner and sat in the open seating bar outdoors. It's really a great option if you're there for the steamed seafood only. There was no wait (compared to the 25 min restaurant wait). The food came out quickly (you can watch them steaming your food). Three of us ordered a dozen medium crabs for $35. They were meaty mediums and I was surprised at how filling they were. The crab chowder was also good but was super thick. It tasted much better than it looked.
(4)
G. B.

So here is the deal with Harris'. The place is basically worth 3 stars. If you are going to crack crabs and drink beer for hours, add a star. If you are going to sit on the deck, add a star. Otherwise the food is overpriced and the service is slow.
(3)
Craig H.

Always a great place to dine. We've checked out most all of the crab places on he eastern shore. Harris has great food and nice ambiance. You can whack your own crabs or have them put it in the best cream of crab soup around. The other entries from fried oysters to crab cakes are tops. My ownly complaint is the seating can be tight so go there for the food and hope for private conversatoin.

Very good crab check...with the important things....butcher paper on the table, a sink in the dining room, etc. Convenient to several Eastern shore towns, and not far from Annapolis. Recommended.

When in season, the all-you-can-eat crabs is a very good deal. Just for the crabs alone, it is a good value. However, they give you so many sides, corn on the cob, hush puppies AND.... fried chicken. I look forward to their friend chicken equally as much as the crabs. A must try. Waits can get long, 60-90 minutes.

Tasty food. Well-priced. Meh location (that bridge is a time-killer). Nice staff but they were very slow on the bill. Big restaurant. The crabs are done nicely. The sides are just okay.

Charles V.

Such a different type of place for me so everything was shocking haha. Interesting location! Plastic silverware and cups and then that rolled paper put on the table really gave a different atmosphere. Not bad by any means, but enough to make me remember the place haha. Of course....very copious amounts of crab legs and sides which put me into a food coma. I had to try their alligator appetizer which I've never had before and it was yummy. Haven't had alligator since then, but if anyone ever offered it to me, i wouldn't be afraid to try it. Really informal place with nice staff and good food. No complaints!

S S.

We had a beautiful evening. Johnny was our server and he was great. They have an all-you-can eat crab special for $28. You get medium crabs, half pound of steamed shrimps and corn on the cob. We should have opted for it but we ordered larger crabs for $65 a dozen. They weren't much larger than the medium. Our bill was well over $100 bucks. Overall it's a lovely location and we were pleased.

Courtney R.

This was only my fourth time crabbin' so maybe my non-antenna eye is not as discerning as some born-and-bred Marylanders, but I found Harris' to be top-notch. The bf and I ordered a dozen large crabs (roughly $50) with the proper sides (hush puppies, corn, fries, onion rings?) while the couple we were with ordered all-you-can eat. And man did they. They also had a Belgian white called Shock Top and we crushed about five pitchers of that. Total damage: $165. Frick yeah!

Melissa M.

This was my birthday dinner. I loved all the food! We order lobster, a crab cake and crab legs-all were terrific. I have to agree with everyone about the hushpuppies, they are perfectly done. The potato Saldana was great too. We did not try dessert, as we were just way too full! The service was a little slow which is why I gave them 4 stars and not 5. Overall the food made the slacking service unmemorable. We will definitely go here again even though it is an hour and a half drive from where we live.

If you're looking for a nice quiet dinner by the water- this is not your place. If you're coming with family and or friends to have a relaxed dining experience with great food, excellent service and a dynamic view (water as far as the eye can see), you need to be at Harris Crab House! I went for my birthday last year and I am dying to go back! The seafood was excellent, enough said!

Rich F.

A dozen raw oysters, creamy crab soup and crab cakes. A great meal. It was happy hour so we got some nice discounts on apps and the Fat Tire draft was only $3.50. Service was good too.

As a Maryland native, Harris Crab House has been the go-to destination for Maryland blue crabs for my family, friends and EVERYONE I know since I was old enough to say "cwab." Everything about this place says "authentic Maryland crabhouse:" The table cloths are disposable brown paper, there are rolls of paper towels on the table, crabs are dumped onto your table on trays, and the restaurant is ON THE BAY. There are two main dining rooms, one downstairs and one upstairs, and there's also an outdoor deck around the perimeter of the second floor. Both floors have wall-to-wall windows so you have a great view of the bay from wherever you are. What can I say about the crabs? They're Maryland blue crabs, and in peak season, they are exploding with meat. There's an all-you-can-eat menu on weekday afternoons, so check it out if you can make it during that time. My favorite side of all time is the hush puppies (fried corn meal) that you can dip into your butter. The crab soup is also delicious and not to be missed if you love soup as much as I do. Ask for some lemons at the end of your meal to squirt into your hands to help get rid of that strong but wonderful crab smell :)

I went here with my parents and some friends after we ran the Baltimore Marathon earlier that day. Needless to say, we were very, very hungry and Harris's delivered. Amongst the six of us, we had a dozen crabs, 2 dozen raw oysters, 2 dozen fried oysters, 1 dozen steamed oysters, 1 lb. of shrimp, 2 orders of garlic mussels and 2 lbs. of steamed soft shell clams. And oh yeah, a couple pitchers of beer. Sadly, only two of us actually ran the marathon, so the other four people with us were just pigs.

Rick S.

I tried this place based on all the yelpers review and I am glad we went. We had the Seafood basket, everything tasted great, the crabs were a bit small but hey it is a combo bucket; good variety and portion size; also tried the lump crab cake, very tasty. Based on what I read on Yelp we had to try the hush puppies; though I am not a fan of these normally, Harris' hush puppies are quite good and I recommend folks give them a try. Service was good and the food priced reasonably.

Shawn S.

Ok, more from the Thanksgiving weekend. So, if its one's first time spending some quality time on the East Coast, one must have fresh seafood, right? I really love good seafood and I could really get used to living out here, especially because you can get such good food for so little money. For four of us, we ordered up the steamed bucket with the mussels, clams, shrimp and crab plus some extra crabs. And of course a couple pitchers of beer. Pound through the mussels and clams while they're hot. Peel the shrimp...and start busting up the crab right there on the paper covered table. Nothing in the world like fresh seafood. Just keep that crab coming... All for around $100 for the 4 of us. What a great time... I'll have to get back in the summer to enjoy some time on the deck.

David B.

Went their with 4 adults and 2 kids in late July expecting a great lunch. 4 adults ordered crab cake sandwiches. Bread was wet and service was extremely poor. We waited 20 minutes to replace wet bread. Waitress needed to be reminded 3 times. Ketchup on table was empty and took 10 minutes for waitress to replace. Horrible food and service. Prices were expensive. I will NEVER go there again.

If you love to eat crabs, this is the place to go. I have been twice already. The second time, we came here on our trip back from Rehoboth, DE. No good crab houses there. We were able to be seated right away. And they still had Jumbo crabs if we wanted. We went with a dozen and a half large crabs. They came out almost right away. Steaming hot and fresh with Maryland style old bay seasoning. Of course we ordered a pitcher of beer with our meal. Delish is all I have to say. 18 crabs between the 3 of us. We did well. A little pricey but it was well worth it. Also ordered the desert, apple pie ala mode? It was pretty much frozen. Pretty hard to eat. So I do not suggest ordering dessert next time. Overall, a very pleasant dining experience I would recommend to my friends

Denise W.

Went here for my Da's bday...it was OK. Definitely meant more for tourists. It is very casual with brown paper on the tables for a crab feast. It was cool and windy outside but people were sitting out there to eat and our table was right next to the door so we kept getting blasted by cold air everytime the wait staff went in and out. Our waitress was friendly and service was good for the most part until she got a very large table in another room and got diverted for a while, but no problem. The kid's ice cream must be scooped out ahead of time and put in a really cold freezer since it comes out hard as a rock...not ideal for the little one who wants to eat their ice cream. The crabs were good but the other food was mediocre. My food came out lukewarm and everything is in disposable plastic cups and plastic plates. I doubt I'll return. It's pretty loud in there which is to be expected in a crab house.

Diana N.

came here to pop my 2009 crab eating fest last week. well worth it!! the crabs were of decent size and only 1 of the 24 were inedible. we had about 4 people in our group and 2 dozen was justttt right. i know i know..."only 24??" but we also ordered a dozen raw oysters, corn, hush puppies...so it was a wide spread :) this place is kinda far...im sure there is somewhere closer to where i live but the ambiance and the service here was awesome! our server kat was at our beck and call and didnt roll her eyes when we wanted about 5 refills of diet coke or even when we spilled slimy oyster juice all over out table and needed a table cloth change. i def recommend coming here if u are coming with someone who has never eaten crabs, this is a great setting, especially when u are seated outside. not too pricey either about $30 for a dozen. cant wait to come back!

Mukur H.

We went here a couple of Saturdays ago and completely forgot to write the review. 3.5 Stars from the group experience, but since I do not eat Seafood, I am rating this from how much my friends enjoyed the food and how much I enjoyed the non-seafood selection. From my experience I give this place 2 stars as the BBQ chicken (only non-seafood entree in limited area) was one of the worst entree I have eaten in a restaurant. The folks that do eat crab had a good time. They enjoyed the extra large crabs and mussles. They also enjoyed the cream of crab soup very much as it was extremely rich (a sample size was enough for them). Finally, my friend was extremely happy with his Shrimp which were oversized :) Remember if you sit outside near dock, you will have a limited menu with no fried food. Personally, if I were to make a trip out this way, I would go to Cantler's while my friends might wanna go here and my fiance would be impartial.

Stopped for lunch on recommendation. This is a brown paper on the table crab house. We didn't have crabs but tried some menu items. Service was fine but the server seemed like she was just going through the motions. NE clam chowder was tepid (a food safety issue), salty and a gelatinous mess. I give it an "F". The hush puppies were cold and hard as rocks. I give them a "D-." The corn bread muffin had the consistency and dryness of a brick. It too was cold. I give it an "F." My wife's steamed shrimp was fine. My crab stuffed flounder was way too salty. All in all we were disappointed. This place needs a kick in the behind.

Gabriel L.

I tried their seafood sampler (broiled crabcake, scallops, and flounders) and it was so-so. I do enjoy their casual atmosphere. Perhaps I should've tried their crabs instead because that's what everyone else was getting.

Loulou P.

Reasonable priced and not as crowded as MIke's in Annapolis. The crabs are perfectly seasoned and fleshy. Not that far from the bay bridge. A nice casual restaurant when you want to let your hair down.

Scott B.

Was here for business and wanted an old fashioned Eastern Shore tourist dining experience and that's exactly what we got (and I don't mean this in a negative way). Harris' has been around for a long time and knows how to please with excellent crab cakes and mountains of fresh crab. And the location, right on the water, can't be beat. My only disappointment was the crab dip which came in little bread bowls about the circumference of a silver dollar. The presentation is interesting, but it makes it difficult to share.
(3)
A H.

This is a great restaurant in a great location. It is also the more casual but good option, with the 2 neighbor restaurants nearby either fancy/more pricey, and a loud music spot. So Harris is "just right." I had a mix of a few items including I think flounder, a crab cake and scallops - each were really just perfect, and as they should be! The veggie sides were fresh, which is not always the case when the seafood is more the central item. And the view over the water can't be beat. This is also a great spot to stop between Delaware beaches and DC.
(4)
Sarah S.

Yay for my first review! I've heard about Harris for a long time now but refused to drive such a long ways for something I could eat at home. But I finally did it (probably because my dad was driving) and I was very, very satisfied with the crabs. It wasn't even peak season yet the crabs were heavy and filled with the delicious, sweet meat. SO YUM! The seasoning was a bit different than what I am used to...it almost looked like a mix of Old Bay (my friend whom I love) and coarse sea salt. It can get a bit too salty if there is too much on your fingers, but still oh so good. I was told that I HAVE to try the hush puppies, and the hype usually ruins it for me, but I wasn't disappointed! Don't even make me start on the sweet white corn on the cob...I'm getting hungry! When you order a pitcher of beer they'll bring out a cup of ice with it. Just drop the cup (with the ice still in it) into the pitcher...it keeps the beer cold without watering it down! What I WAS disappointed in: clams and shrimp. I just don't know what to say about them.... My family and I found a little ice cream place right next door...Harris Ice Cream or something. The ice cream was your typical stuff, but the scoops were GINORMOUS. I don't know if it's just because the people working there didn't know what they were doing, but it was all okay with me. Just get ready to roll up your sleeves and make sure to soak in the view of the bay while you're there (we finished dinner at sunset which made my experience all the more yummy). I definitely want to go back....now, who wants to drive?

D S.

This place was great! I took my mother and aunt there to celebrate my mother's birthday and I know we sat there for at least three hours! It was the best. The crabs were hot and full of crab meat. The half pound of steamed shrimp were good too( even though my mother kept stealing all of mine after she ate all of hers) The waitress( Stephanie) was very attentive and we did not lack anything . She was right there before our ginger ale was empty and had a full platter of hot crabs ready before our last crab was done. I highly recommend this place to the crab lovers out there. I will be back.
(5)
Laura J.

Fabulous. The service was the best I have had on the East coast since I moved here 10 years ago. If Stef happens to be your waitress - you are in for a real treat. She was friendly, attentive and courteous. The prices were much better than others in the area. I tried the cream of crab soup and it was great - added a little old bay and yum. Also had the mussels, oysters and the crab dip. Only issue we had was cutting the bread for the crab bowl. I will definitely be back again.

Robyn W.

Let me preface this by saying, I am not exactly a foodie or really picky, but do like good food and go out to eat often. Long story short, Harris Crab House is OVERRATED. FIrst off, their wait times are NOT accurate. They told our party of four twenty minutes...we were not seated for an an hour and twenty minutes. We were seated upstairs, inside. Our appetizers were popcorn shrimp which was very soggy, rubbery, and not the least bit crispy. The portion was a nice size, though. We also had onion rings as an appetizer and they were nothing special. I had the bbq shrimp....(grilled shrimp, wrapped in bacon served on a skewer) and it was VERY salty, but pretty good. My husband had the scallops and bbq chicken combo, which was also ok. Another person had the soft shelled crab sandwich and it was WAY TOO fried and also soggy to the point it was almost unedible. Our other person in the party ordred the ribs and chicken combo and requested NO BBQ sauce (since he had been there before and did not like the BBQ sauce). It came with bbq sauce and it was promptly sent back. After about 25 minutes of waiting, the waiter came back and said all of the ribs and chicken already had bbq sauce on it. He settled for a shrimp salad sandwich and it was bland. The fries were cold on everyone's plate, except for the shrimp salad. The corn bread was very dry. The cole slaw was good....probably because it's not homemade! The nutty buddy is also nothing to write home about...it is big, though and can certainly be shared. I had to BEG our waiter to bring us water....maybe there is a drought that I am unaware of. All in all, not impressed. Will not be going back....

Harris Crab House is awesome. My husband and I found this place in March 2011 and we've been back MANY times. We're originally from Texas, so anytime our Texan friends come up to visit, we take them to Harris Crab House for an East-Coast-Crab-Eatin' good time. I can honestly say, the food has never been disappointing. We will always get a dozen steamed crab and we normally always get snow crab legs. Both are awesome and a must-get. As for appetizers, when Crawfish are in season GET THEM--not only are they delicious dipped in butter, but the experience alone of eating Crawfish is worth it. Also, the Cajun Mac and Cheese is incredible and something we've started ordering every time. A pitcher of beer is about $11, not too bad. Lastly, this is BY NO MEANS a fancy eating establishment. It's very low key--paper on the tables (eating Crab is messy business), plastic utensils, part of your dining experience requires crab mallets and sea-food knives, etc.--- all in all: an awesome, unforgettable and delicious dining experience.

justin p.

Great location right on the water. Good crabs and good oysters, and you have to love the homemade nutty buddies for dessert (be forewarned, they are big!). Can be VERY crowded at high season and the service isn't always the best. I've eaten here probably 2 dozen times, and only once was the service atrocious. But sometimes it can be inattentive (I drink a lot of tea and need a lot of refills!).

Christie W.

I was definitely impressed with Harris Crab House. Me and the boyfriend made a stop on our way home from the beach on a Tuesday afternoon. The decor is fun, definitely gives you the feel of an authentic crab house. Located right on the water just before the bay bridge. They have an upstairs and a downstairs dining area. We thought we wanted to eat upstairs outdoors on the deck, but after about 2 minutes of waiting for our server in the heat we opted to move inside. They have one of my favorite beers shock top on tap so that was a huge plus. We ordered 1/2 a dozen oysters, and 1/2 a dozen jumbo crabs. They were some of the meatiest and biggest crabs I have ever had. The seasoning they offer is one of the best I have ever had. It was spicy and salty and mmmmmm just thinking about it is making my mouth water! The prices here are some of the best around. They are less expensive than some of the competition. We finished our meal with one of their home made nutty buddies! They were delicious! I will defiinitely be making another trip out to Harris's Crab house before the season is over!!

We took my mom here for Mother's Day and had a fantastic time. The place was hopping and they had people directing traffic in the parking lot to make that easier. The main parking attendant was super helpful with getting us a space close to the door (my dad's in an air cast right now) and helped us back out later since we had 2 large vehicles parked on either side of us. They said the wait would be about 45 minutes (which I thought was very reasonable for mother's day!) and it actually didn't take quite that long. We were seated upstairs inside and had a decent view of the river from our table. Our waitress wasn't as attentive or fast as I may have preferred, but she also had tables outside so I was a little more lenient than I normally would have been. The food took a long time to come out, but again it was mother's day and when it did finally arrive it was fantastic so I'm not going to complain about the length of time we had to wait. Everything was hot and well flavored and came out just as ordered. The pricing was about what I would expect for seafood and I would definitely go back. I highly recommend to anyone on the western shore looking to take a quick trip over the bridge on a Sunday afternoon for good atmosphere and good food at a decent price.

I started a new job a little while ago, and it consists of a lot of traveling. I heard about Harris Crab House from yelp, and decided to give it a try while driving through. When I entered the building, there was a nice view overlooking the water; although the greeting from the employees was less than lackluster. I sat down and ordered some fried oysters and two blue crabs. My waitress was actually quite nice and helpful. The fried oysters were really good (first time having them) and the crabs were really tasty, lots of Old Bay seasoning. After finishing and still hungry I decided to get a small bowl of oyster soup. I also got a small sample of the crab chowder after talking to my waitress. The oyster soup was good, not great. The crab chowder is really thick and tasty; however, there were small bits of crab shell in it that made it kind of annoying eat (*Note: the waitress did mention the crab chowder was a hit or miss depending on who picked the crab). Overall it was a good experience, and I would definitely return if passing through.
