We enjoyed food from the Blur Crab last night for the first time. We made a takeout order online. Crabs, crab cakes, and sides. Everything was very good — and happily the order was ready for pickup when we got there. Flawless and tasty. 15 min parking out front was a huge bonus.

Crabs, shrimp, clams, kids pasta, hush puppies, and excellent service. This was our first visit and a great experience!

Great experience, we had children with us and Blue Crab got us in very quickly! Our server was wonderful last night. She was a young lady from Kazakhstan and she gave us fantastic service and was on top of everything! The food came out quickly as well which was helpful since we had small children with us. This might sound weird but my husband says that the seltzer water was the crisp-est he’s ever had. He’s forcing me to share this. My only feedback is that there should be another vegetarian option as my husband didn’t have much to choose from. Thanks for a lovely dinner!

The menu changed slightly from the last time we were here, but it was still excellent! Lots of people around us were getting crab legs, or blue crab and they looked very good. Fried chicken is a really nice surprise- crispy skin, and very juicy! Definitely a great spot in Bethany!

A few days ago I was invited to a birthday celebration at the Blue Crab. The host and hostess great u at the door. We had a table for 8 with a waiter named Brad. The food was excellent and the crab soup was great. Brad was very attentive and we all enjoyed the place. We would definitely visit again. The parking lot is not free. You pay at a meter $3.00 an hour. Again thumbs up for Brad

Great restaurant experience! All you can eat crabs for $59, which unfortunately seems to be the going rate for those right now. Crabs were all number one jumbo males and cooked to perfection. Lesser restaurants will substitute females and number twos because they are cheaper. They came with the best hush puppies I ever had and fried chicken was pretty good as well. I will definitely be back and recommend this place to others.

Drinks were good, especially this “orange crush” things they have. Atmosphere was fine as well, staff was friendly, and location is right on boardwalk.. only complaint is the food.

Slow service, waitress acted as though it was a problem to get our food or drinks. Soup came out luke warm. Cobb salad did not include all listed toppings. Kid’s food was old and dried out. Maybe their crabs are good, but we didn’t order any because we were so displeased with our experience. Try somewhere else first, make this your last resort.

We almost did not come because of some of the reviews… so glad we did!!! Oysters were perfect… both raw and charbroiled! The bourbon crush… so good. My husband got the captains platter and loved it… the crab was amazing…. the corn… very good! I got the fisherman’s stew and so much seafood… I could not finish… was very good… my only complaint is we were too full for key lime pie… service was great! Thanks so much!
