Well we were supposed to be at the Surfing Crab for all you can eat crabs as we have done many times before for up to 3 hours ( they claim to have a 2 hour time limit). We got there around 630. Didn’t get our first tray of crabs til 640-645 (it’s now 845 as I’m posting this driving away). At 825 ish I asked for more crabs, the waitress thought I was joking according to her, so when she came back with the check and I asked where my crabs were, she said “I thought you were joking.” She went to get more crabs but came back and said “they said you are over your time limit. Meanwhile the owner is getting drunk behind the bar and could care less. I used to think this was a cool place to go….i will never go there again.

Our large party visited The Surfing Crab in Lewes, Delaware on the evening of June 3, 2026, and we had an outstanding experience. The food was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. The atmosphere was lively, welcoming, and perfect for a fun night out with family and friends.

What truly made our visit exceptional was the customer service. Jeff, our waiter, went above and beyond to take care of our large group. He was attentive, friendly, professional, and made sure everything ran smoothly throughout the evening. Managing a large party is never easy, but Jeff handled it flawlessly and made everyone feel welcome.

If you’re looking for great seafood, a fantastic atmosphere, and top-notch service, The Surfing Crab is a must-visit. We will definitely be back!

Wow, this place has all you can eat blue crabs. For about $69, you can have as much steam crabs as you can eat! What a deal, and they are not small size. Just look at the picture.

If you are in the area, you have to check this place out! I can’t remember his name, but ask for the server that claimed that he looks like Daniel Craig! (But, I thought that he looks more like Sean Penn.) He is the best!
