Great little place on LBI. My family always goes there for the crab legs. Great to sit inside and cool off and have a great meal. Menu is big enough for anyone to find something they like.

Not very good food, service or attitude. I ordered 3 jumbo lump crab cake sandwiches to go at 6pm. I was told they wouldn't be ready until 7:30pm. I initially called back to ask if I got it wrong and the girl meant 6:30pm and I was flippantly told no 7:30pm. We arrived at 7:20pm to pay hopefully pick up. I don't believe they even took the jumbo lump crab cabs out of the case to cook them until 7:30pm. However, they really looked not busy kind of empty for Ship Bottom Shellfish. The jumbo lump crab cakes weren't ready until about 7:40pm. There was also a very fishy smell inside. But, we took them home to eat, the rolls they were on were old, stale hard like rocks. Plus, the jumbo lump crab cakes weren't that jumbo or anything special kind of bland. Hardly any fries for my son with these little not so great generic brand of tartar sauce containers, and our cole slaw was also very bland. The pricing was high even for LBI. I've have had much better crab cakes in LBI at a lower cost with much nicer staff friendlier service. Of course being part of the TideTable Group all the publicity they've received lately, I'm sure they really don't care. No need to return or recommend to anyone.

The food was really good and the staff was friendly. You can eat outside or inside. Some parking spaces are available next to the restaurant

6/2022: The service at the counter was very pleasant and helpful. Keep up the good work. Ordered the soft shell crab sandwich to go for $23. The crab itself was simply okay and the fries were crispy and chunky. The bread buns for the sandwich was not good. I would not order this again, thus the three stars. The food coming out of the kitchen looked very mediocre. Enjoy what you can.
