Harris Crab House - Grantsville

Harris Crab House is still serving up fantastic, fresh steamed crabs! It had been quite a while since we last visited this restaurant, as we’ve moved away from the DC area. We were pleased to find that it remains at the top of its game when it comes to fresh, expertly prepared steamed crabs. Our waitress was attentive and genuinely aimed to provide excellent service, which she certainly did. We also ordered fried onion rings as a side; they arrived hot and crispy without being greasy. Overall, it was a wonderful evening with a lovely view of the water as a backdrop.

I recently experienced some of the worst service and seafood I've had in a long time. The mussels had a foul odor. I wouldn't recommend this place, even if it were free.

I was recommended the special oyster duck pot pie, but I ended up being quite disappointed. It was dry and lacked flavor, making it hard to identify the key ingredients. The crab cake was served at room temperature and was mushy. The soup wasn’t hot either. I have generally enjoyed my experiences at Harris’, but tonight may have been our last visit, especially considering we spent $84 for two people without any alcohol or dessert.

We made the trip down here from Allentown for the Friday Oyster Buffet. Visited Thursday for the locals special, half dozen oysters and a Poor Boy. Coupled that with a few oranges crushes, an apple mule and the best vegetable crab soup I've ever had. Deep rich base, plenty of crab all without that overwhelming punch of old bay (they have their own crab spice, perfect blend and we brought home a container). Back on Friday for the oyster feast and we weren't disappointed steamed, fried, buffalo, bacon cheese, charbroiled, Rockefeller along with cream of crab and vegetable soup and a bunch of other goodness. The hit with us fresh sucked. Sweet, briney and the perfect temperature. We had planned this trip for more than a year, so worth the wait.

Absolutely fantastic seafood! Every dish on the menu is mouthwatering. I really enjoy dining here. Our server, Liz, provided outstanding service, and the entire staff was both friendly and knowledgeable. If you're in Kent Narrows, Maryland, or just passing through, make sure to stop by Harris Crab House. You won't be disappointed! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
