Mike's Crabhouse Reviews

Great location on the South River in Annapolis MD area. Consistent quality and service.

Great service by Rochelle. The wait was a quick hour and well worth the atmosphere

Amazing crab cakes, good service and beautiful location!

Amazing food. The cream of crab was the best I've ever had.

The Crab Cakes are to die for, I had the crabcake sandwich and if it wasnt so far away I would've got a second one.

Water view from every table in the place! Friendly happy attentive staff. Seafood stuffed potato skin app. Delighted and stuffed me! Crab balls and creamed crab soup, both nothing but yummy crab. Only wish I lived closer to this place! 6 minutes from Annapolis. A must try while in the area! Ask for Emily!

I ordered from door dash.. you can go to any buffet and get the same quality. For less then 20 dollars I paid over 40 dollars not counting the third party that I don't blame them for.. bit the crab was not local.. the muscle and clams as well as the Shirmp were now fresh .. I could have pause half the price at acme and they would have steamed it too... Don't waist your money that are less then par .. and your local store cooks it better..

The crabcake sandwich was outstanding and so were the hushpuppies! Definitely recommend!

Great atmosphere delightful server and good food! Loved the chips!

Enjoyable, great food and service. It was nice being able to look out at the bay while eating out with friends.

Mike s has been our favorite restaurant for many years. We have celebrated many family and friend events there in the past.
Last week we were very disappointed in our experience. When we arrived at the hostess station, the two hostesses were not wearing their masks correctly. When we asked if they would fix them, they would not. Well, the younger hostess did not. She took our name and number saying it would be a 45 minute wait. After 60 minutes, we went back to the hostess station and were told they did not have our name or number. Also, their masks were not on right again. We were seated, then. But after a few minutes, we left. If we were treated like that knowingly, what might be happening behind the scene not knowing.
Needless to say, it will take a lot of time and thought before we return. If we do. Our whole party was very disappointed and saddened. We represented 3 families who have frequented Mikes often in the past. Very sad.
Come on Mike s, get back to taking care of your customers and their safety. You can do it.

Tara was our waitress and she did an awesome job. She was friendly, professional and attentive! The food was also delicious

Decent food and drinks but there is normally over 2 hour wait to get a table. The owners spent money putting in another bar outside but didn t do anything inside which looks very outdated. Staff is nice but the manager doesn t know how to run a restaurant efficiently which creates long waits.

They don t allow take out which makes no sense being on the water for boaters.

The country store is also very outdated and it is dirty. We stopped to get subs there and I didn t eat mine because I saw how dirty they were touching money and then my sandwich with no gloves or hand washing.

Had a group of 18 event. Thursday afternoon/evening not so crowded.

Love this place huge crabs n cocktails are really good

A true MD crab house. Thanks guys for the great crabs and service

Had a dozen large crabs. They were delicious! The outside deck is right on the water and the views are amazing!

The food is delicious!! I ordered the hadock fish sandwich and it was huge!! The prices are very good too. The servers are amazing as well!!

Don't come here if you're in a hurry. Be prepared for a long wait. The food is very good. Enjoy!

The best crubs that I ever eating. The Sea view is wonderfull and you feel like a home.

Best place to eat. Delish. The wait is worth the time.

Grest views, expensive everthing, food pretty good.

Crabs we're great but service a little slow, however, understandable since it was Father's day

I gave them one star because we went here for a family outing just to see the water and enjoy the weather. We got there and as a crab house they were out of crabs. Not a disappointment to me because I am not a crab fan but, my wife and daughter are so that was the first strike. We had asked for a table where we could see the water at check in. After waiting about 30 mins we were walk to a table that they thought was available but wasn't, ok fine but, then offered a table with my eight year old child by the bar, ok really! Second strike!! The third strike is when a customer who had been waiting after us came right in a got a table by the window and where you could see the water that we had asked for from the beginning while we was given a table no where near a window and almost in the back of the restaurant(ok I will say probably the middle) that could have been used in front of the TV as grandpa's rocking table(chair). Then when we went back to check in to ask for another table we was just looked at like what do you want us to do??!! Okay!!!! Well time to leave and I will spend my money else where. Go straight to jail you do not get to pass go!! Thank You Very Much!!!!!!!!

Great Crabs and crab cakes. Beautiful place on the water. Will definitely be back.

Had a great first visit and we will probably return for some more good food.

I enjoyed my shrimp and crabs at Mikes. Alex did a wonderful job of serving us. Alan, the manager was gracious and funny.

My boyfriend and I went there about a month ago on a Friday night so we knew it would be busy. We were told it would be a 5-10 minute wait inside and a 45 minute wait outside, so we decided to wait for a table inside. The hostess came back 10 minutes later and took us to a table and said our waiter would be right with us. We sat there for 30 more minutes and not a single person stopped to see if someone had come by to take our drink or food orders. Mind you I saw 15 or so if not more workers walk right past our table and make eye contact but never said a word. My boyfriend got up and went to the hostess who followed him back to see where our table was and said she'd go get our waiter right away, well 15 more minutes went by and no one came so we got up and left. I'll never eat there again even though I never have.

Food is good but if it's a busy night in Annapolis and you dont want to find out about their irregularities in seating policies the hard way, go someplace that takes reservations.

View is great, service is good, crabs are delicious!

Great place to eat seafood (especially crabs) and enjoy the scenery, service is good they do there best to accommodate you. I enjoy this place so much you midas well call a regular.

Great service, great crabs. The specialty cocktail "fireworks" is pretty and tasty. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the price is on the high side

Prices are reasonable food was fantastic service was amazing

Love this spot, Crabs, Food and drinks are great. Atmosphere is great so.

Quintessential Maryland crab house. Steamed crabs, crab cakes, softshell sandwich. All great. With the food legit, the marina and riverfront setting all take the experience to the next level.

Love Mike's..for a quick beer with friends or outside on the deck for crabs..staff is always friendly. Food always good!!

I wouldn't even give this place 1 star. Out of our whole group (6 people) none of them liked anything that was ordered. Bland, tasteless food. Horrible service.

Great place to eat with a nice view of the South River.

Come all the way from Baltimore to celebrate my daughter s birthday and the service was soo poor. Dillon was our waiter and made us wait soo long to get any type of service. We had to call someone 4 times to get anything. He kept forgetting to bring food to the table. I did want to get food but was afraid that may take another hour. I asked for the manager and he was no better. Had to call someone to get him to come back for a response. So of course I know nothing was said to the waiter. I had better service from the inmates at the facility I work for. Will never return.

Eating delicious, piping hot crabs with friends and family while sipping perfectly blended cocktails and looking out on the water back got to be my picture of perfection where seafood is concerned. While I rarely get anything besides crabs and seafood appetizers (raw, steamed or other), I can share that the crabs are always large, full of meat and almost too hot to touch when they come out to the table. And, yet, they are never overcooked or waterbombed! The atmosphere is casual, beautiful and welcoming, and the dining staff contribute greatly to this effect.

Please try out Mike's but keep in mind that you might want to make a reservation on weekends and holidays arrive with the knowledge that the parking can get cramped during crowded periods. There is a spot they keep available for large events.

Reasonable prices, good seafood will definitely go back

Colleen made our experience the best..Our office team were happy about the overall service.

The crab legs are delicious and the way to eat them very original, as well as the seafood ...

Ok so Mike's Restaurant and Crab House food was amazing and the staff there were amazing as well. After we ate we went out to the back deck and took some amazing pictures. We will go back again next summer.

Absolutely awesome food but unfortunately I have to take away a star because they are so heavily dependent on Plastics.

The service was terrible. Yes we had a large party but our food should have been served before the party thatvwas seated way after us. My sister had to hunt down the waitress to figure out why we didn't have our food. Once we got the food, it was all cold. All that money for cold food and terrible service. I'm good on this place. Won't be coming back.

The wait was incredibly long. 2 hrs for a setting for 12. 2x6 tables. They had plenty of seating space, social Distancing outside, but didn't have the staff to support them. We ended up inside, 2 different waitresses for the 2 tables, no big deal, but 1 server was much more attentive and faster. We were done with our meal and ready to go about 30 mins for the other table.very sad.

The food wasn't bad, but there was to salt or pepper available other then the small packets that came in the plastic utensils they gave you. Very cheap way to go. Sad as well.

Excellent food & great view of the water while eating!

A nice Saturday afternoon to be outside. Stopped in Mikes. The food was great, atmosphere was great, bar servers were excellent. I would definitely recommend Mike's.

So good been going here for all of ten years and every visit is always a eventful time.

The food was delicious! Would've rated it 5 stars but the portions were kind of small.

My favorite place for seafood the hush puppies are amazing with the honey butter

Just Okay: but hard shell crabs tasted re-heated, ( i.e., steamed, then reheated in microwave), oysters on the half shell & crab imperial tested like farm raised, pateurized shellfish. Mike 's is not what it used to be!

Quality seafood and the crabs are good when they're available. Mike's has a tendency to stop serving crabs well before close, or before the time previously stated. This seems to be more of a staff decision based on how busy the restaurant is or whether the kitchen is trying to break down and clean

Great views but very long wait on a weekday between meals (~1.5 hrs wait before we had food... Thank goodness for the tiki bar!).
