“ First time trying this place even. Though ice lived in the area for a little over 20 years. I always hear about this place and it was my sister's bday and she wanted seafood. We got there late and we're lucky they had a dozen crabs left they five you the option of spicy or not spicy seasoning ( I chose to buy them cooked but you can opt for uncooked) the guy behind the counter was not super friendly but not rude. He answered my questions patiently (which was nice since we came about an hour before last order can be taken). They text you when your order is ready and have it packed up nicely. And we got a bonus crab and lots of legs for being the last order of the night. The seasoning was good and spicy. Crabs and shrimp both delicious. And the shrimp had a sweetness to it. Everything seemed fresh. It was just me and my sister but I ate 5 to 6 crabs...so happy ....I've been craving crabs for a while now. ”
“ crabs were good but they don't use regular old bay. they use "crab seasoning" and it's too salty. crabs should be with old bay 100% of the time ”
“ 8/9/23 I had a craving for blue shell crabs today and found a spot that did me well. I'm skeptical when it comes to buying steamed crabs since I cook my own; but Jae's did an excellent job. I ordered a dozen large spicy male crabs. The claws and legs were full of meat and flavorful. If you're looking for steamed crabs without the disappointment, check out Jae Seafood . I purchased early in the day around 1130-noon, the quality and service was great. Facts: I walked in placed my order, asked the price ($47), and was told 25 mins. I received a text when done and it was worth the wait. This business has a new customer. Yes, I measured the crab and each one was about the same size. ”
“ Was on a drive home and searched for blue crabs lead me here. Was worth the detour. Did not know what to expect but they were fresh and heavy. 10/10 would recommend. ”
“ Was all over the place looking for some crabs this past Mother's Day and found this place after an exhausting search. I'm no crab expert and I can't speak for the rest of the menu, but I was told that the crabs were good. Hot, and well seasoned. The owner, Tommy is hilarious. Talked me into buying the last dozen Super Jumbos he had, but also ended up throwing in a few large. Just a couple of those supers were enough for a meal ”
“ I discovered this place a few years back when it first opened. As a crab lover I was so happy to find a spot within a few miles of home to get on of my favorites. They never disappoint!! The crabs are excellent and always spiced to your liking. The staff are a young bunch of good guys working their butts off to make it happen. ”
“ Love This place and the Seafood Never Had A Bad Meal From Them I don't eat seafood often but when I do this place is one of my go to if I don't want to travel to far into town ”
“ Even pre-Covid, there doesn't appear to be any seating. It's a seafood market that specializes in prepared combos. You can find around 15 seafood combos on their website, everything from dungeness to shrimp to snow crabs. The combos feed about 2-3 people and the higher priced ones range from $40 to $50. The veggies that come on the side needs a little revamping. The broccoli doesn't seem to pair well with the corn and the potatoes, and the garlic butter soaked into the corn too much. Or you can order steamed and seasoned blue crabs. If you need to order for dinner, you should call by around 3pm and be ready to pick up within 45 minutes or so. You can't place an order in advance. ”
