Customer Reviews
I ordered pickup for lunch today. The fish and chips and shrimp po boy were absolutely delicious! The breading on both the cod and shrimp was light, crispy and well seasoned. The po boy came on a real french roll which is the best way in my opinion. My husband and I were very impressed by the quality, taste and value! We will definitely be back!
A great place to grab crabs to go. They offer an outdoor seating area with benches. I ordered a dozen medium crabs, cream of crab soup - small, 1-lb steamed shrimp (small), fries and 1 ear of corn. It was a to-go order. The crabs were a good size with plenty of meat but lacked seasoning (see photo). They could've used more old bay or JO. The soup was very thick, more of a crab dip consistency than soup, but it tasted great! The old bay sprinkled on top was a bit heavy handed, which made it salty. I didn't mind it, but would've preferred the old bay on the side for me to sprinkle my own amount as I see fit. The fries were good but were cold by the time I got home. They had a crunchy-like coating so I'm not sure if they're gluten free. I personally wouldn't order fries to-go the next time. T
The food is amazing! We looked at the menu online and ordered over the phone. We got a fried oyster platter with a side of mac and cheese, a brisket sandwich, a stuffed shrimp sandwich, and cream of crab. Everything was absolutely excellent! Sea King's mac and cheese is quite possibly the best I've ever had! Highly recommend it if you visit. The cream of crab was also a highlight.
I drove here from DC and will always come here for their crabs. Ordered online and was impressed with the customer service and quality of crabs. Positives: 1) You can order crabs based on size/ sex/ origin. So if you only want small/female crabs from Chesapeake, they can do that. 2) customer service was excellent. I ordered the wrong platter online and called the phone number. The lady tricked tracked down my order, made the changes, and had the new order ready for pickup. 3) great specials at the restaurant too
Worst all-around experience, wish we could give a negative rating. This was our second time trying out Sea King Seafood Market and we should have learned our lesson the first time. We first went to Sea King last year when we moved to Ellicott City, called in a dozen of steamed crabs and a pound of shrimp over phone. When we arrived to pick at the discussed time they said we were late and they didn't have the order ready. Being new to the neighborhood, we waited for the order. Food was nothing to write home about. Fast forward to today, we decide to give it another go. Employee was not knowledgeable and had to call over, I guess the manager, to answer simple questions. We asked about the extra large crabs, at $93 a dozen, and were told that they sell a mix of extra large an
