Capt. Billy's Review

The food was excellent and worth the price that you paid... You will truly enjoy this place if you are a seafood lover..

Great service. Very attentive. Great atmosphere. Very clean and fresh

Bought 2 dozens they were nice size and heavy. Definitely recommend them to all lovers.

Great food & service. Busy on Saturday, but no wait for a table inside. 15 min wait for a table outside by the water.

Have been to Captian Billys many man6 times in the past. With the pandemic the menu was disappointing.

Service was ok.. Food was amazing. Needs work on their customer service.

I have been here many times before but today the cabs were all mushy. Ask the waitress what was the issue she stated that maybe they were at the bottom of the pot. She didn't even try to correct the issue. I paid for my crabs abd left. Will not be returning. The couple next to us had the same issue. The worst crabs ever. I think they were from the day before

I have been going here for over 50 years but this was my last time.some wore mask and some did not. Not worth the drive.

Crabs we're great and reasonablely priced for early season

First-rate ambience and super friendly service. The food was fresh and enchanting. Will clearly recommend this place to others. Convenient rates and big meals. Great work.

The view is exceptional. Your right on the water & is so beautiful to sit and look at the scenery. It's something about the ocean that gives you a calming affect. You just feel so relaxed & at peace.You almost forget why your there. The waitress was very friendly & attentive to my dinner selection. She checked on me throughout my stay. The food was good I had a crab cake & shrimp with 2 sides. And the lemonade was really good. Taste home made. I do plan to return to try those twin lobster tales.

Good food on the water with a nice family atmosphere.

Had a great meal, great service and waterfront view. Celebrating my wife's birthday with family

Great food and amazing setting. Service was a little slow but acceptable.

Wonderful Service Great food service was great kind people very nice atmosphere I would recommend it highly to friends

My girl friend bought me to this place last year.And it has become one of my favorites.Good customer service.Great food and the hard shell crabs are just right.We made several trips there after.

Awful. Greasy soft shell. Ran out of green salad. No more

The king crab was delicious and perfectly cooked and it came in great quantity. The location is also quite nice!

Great customer service, great seafood, great hush puppies.

We went here with a group of people for work and the boss paid for it so I think the price is perfect. The food was excellent. Atmosphere very much what you'd expect a nice Crab House. You can also pull up to the restaurant via a boat as well as car.

The setting on the waterfront was beautiful over looking the water peaceful and the food was great.

It's ok, but my waiter had a large group inter and just left us and my Oysters were over cooked

The food, cleanliness and service is still the best and has not changed from over the 30 years of going there. Nice atmosphere along with Billy daughter keep you going back. Connie

I've been going to this place since I was a little kid. Best memory of this place (aside from the delicious food): when I was a very young child, my family celebrated my great-grandmother's birthday here. Somebody at the restaurant (most likely at the request of one of my uncles) put a pie in her face! It was over 20 years ago, so some of the details were fuzzy, but I still have the mental image of Nanny smiling with a face covered in Cool Whip, and everyone howling with laughter around her.

We ve been coming here for the past 30+ years. Always a great experience due to the wait staff and tasty food. Prices are reasonable and menu selection is quite good.
On our most recent visit - ordered a dozen crabs and hush puppies. Small and medium crabs were all that was available. Majority of them full of meat, cooked appropriately, and proper size. We ordered another dozen that arrived in less than a minute. Just as good as the first batch. Wait staff visit often to check up and empty buckets. We were seated inside, next to window, in a booth. Can be a bit cozy for folks carrying a few extra pounds. Table and chair location may be a more comfortable spot.
We will be back. New generations of family to enjoy the seafood.
Great location nearby the 301 bridge and easy to get to.

The seafood here is spectacular. However the service is extremely lack luster. Ignored upon walking in(not busy) Waitress was not attentive for our almost 2 hour meal of picking crabs. Butter/drinks/beer had to keep an eye out just to find her. Also, table of 4 people 17% gratuity automatically added. I usually tip 20% however this waitress service and attitude was not even worth the 17% we were forced to pay.

Good food Great environment
Awesome waiting staff

Good fast service. Seafood platter good with plenty of food.

Snow crab legs and steamed shrimp are a winning pick at Captain Billy's. However, I was impressed with the crab cake, and the jumbo fried shrimp are rather delicious... Honestly everything was quite good, especially the corn fritters(which seem to be the best of all the local crab houses recipes) and somehow we managed a few bites of lovely dessert after the feast. The carrot cake and peanut butter chocolate... cake? Trifle? Not sure what, but it was decadent. Not wild about the fruit punch drink but it was at least pleasant enough to enjoy, next time I'll try the hurricane or another drink instead. Good service and a lovely setting, we will certainly be back soon!

My first visit to a crab bar. Very funky and fun. Loved sitting right on the water. The crab selection was great: Blue crab, snow crab and shrimp platter was awesome and easily fed 4 of us. My Mother-in-Law wanted to take us there since she took my husband when he was around 4, so it was a bit nostalgic for us. Prices were pretty reasonable. Under $90 for 4 people including 5 drinks, a huge crab/shrimp sampler plate with sides and a plate of BBQ ribs.

The crabs are really meaty. The shrimps are overcooked though. Great place overall!!

Excellent seafood on the water! So glad Yelp led us there!!!!

Friendly guests and staff
The steamed crabs were good!

My first time there and with my Senior Group from my Church and we all had a really really great time there and can't wait to go back for some more of their awesome seafood, all of them!!

Terrible service, kept getting the order wrong or not bringing it out at all. The cream of crab soup only had cream, NO CRAB!

Food is fabulous. Due to storms, they were late going to get crabs which sucked since that is what I wanted! I had to settle for snow crab legs and shrimp. All needed more seasoning and they don't remove the veins or the shells so be prepared to work. You get a large amount of food!

I love the food and the price, they also have a great atmosphere.

Food was good but spiders were everywhere in ceiling and around light fixtures and neon signs

Had a wonderful time with my husband for my birthday. Great waitress and good food.

Delicious! Best crab cake I've ever had! Looking forward to going back!

I ordered a dozen blue claw crabs. They were delicious. The only downside was that not all the crabs had claws! Great place.

It was busy but not so noisy that we couldn't hold a conversation while we ate. The food was great. The crabcakes were awesome and I had a really nice view of the water.

Great Seafood and a little busy on a Friday night .

I give it 2 1/2 stars. Market price scallops were greasy and baked potatoe to me seemed reheated.

Not able to acommadate food allergies so not able to rate.

Great place with a friendly staff and great crabs! They have a variety of seafood options to choose from. They have great drinks and also offer dessert. You can choose to eat inside or outside and enjoy the view. Haven't been let down yet from this place

Always nice to come back to my Native State and enjoy my favorite food and one of my old eating spots!

Great views and seafood. A nice place to stop if your driving South and don't like taking I-95. We stopped on the way AND back from New York to Williamsburg and it was great.

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I CELEBRATE MY BIRTHDAY THERE EVERY YEAR!! The food is great and so is the scenery.

Casual atmosphere on the Potomac River. The lump crab cake was tasty!

Awesome crabs but the deck (with a great waterside view) could use some bug zappers

Great crabs and seafood. Service was also good and always asked if we needed more.

Great service, great seafood! I have visited this restaurant a few times. Never disappointed. Great views and a good menu. Something for everyone. Highly recommend!
