A hole in the wall with lots of character. Service was good, two complementary head on shrimp for us to sample, but disappointed with how deep fried the grouper bites were. The Maryland crab soup should have been listed as a vegetable soup. The scallops, however, redeemed our meal they were fantastic!

Had the soft Crab sandwich. Delicious! The sample were great too. Love this place. If I didnt live 1000 miles away, I'd be here weekly. Seriously. This is probably 4th time visiting Shrimp Boat. Well worth it. The crabs were next table over.

Got there just in time for happy hour. Half off shrimp dishes and bar drinks. Steamed shrimp was amazing, seasoned heavy and perfectly cooked. Crab cake had a few shells but was tasty. Mussels could use more seasoning, but were cooked well. Will be coming back
