keep on driving by! The outside of the place stunk of rotten seafood. Nasty. I got the AYCE crabs, small, hollow, mushy, I only had about 5 crabs that had a good texture, some were cold as if they were reserved, I had some I didn't eat and I opened them just so they couldn't reserve them. I looked around when going to the bathroom and I think I was the only one eating crabs, maybe the snow crab legs are better? I believe this place cooks dead crabs. I suggest sticking to places that deal with steamed crabs only. My husband got the prime rib and 1/3 of it was a big hunk of fat on the end. When leaving a couple pulled in and asked how our meal was and they were getting the AYCE crabs, I told them how it was and suggested not getting the crabs and try the snow crabs. The service was good and fast. I will not go back and wont recommend.

I went here on a co-worker recommendation for somewhere to go for AYCE steamed crabs, but I will certainly never go back and on Monday I am calling the health department to put in a complaint on this restaurant. Service started off bad, it took two hours to get through 3 trays of steamed crabs. Not because they were piled high with crabs, no, it was because there was only maybe 12 or 15 crabs per tray for 3 guys, then it took another 15-20 minutes to get another order. On top of that we noticed that some of the crabs were not very good and smelled odd, but we chalked it up to bad luck since the others tasted fine and we tossed the bad ones aside. We finally asked the waitress to bring us double orders, which she gladly did. A bit later we had a big pile of crabs and everything seemed to be finally going well. Then we started noticing that for every one good crab there were 2-3 rotten crabs! I'm not talking about a mild off smell like the earlier ones, these were stinking, runny, brown, totally and utterly rotten crabs. It was so bad that it caused all three of us to top eating. Never in my life have i had such a horrible experience, the owner of this establishment should be ashamed. I really hope that I don't get sick and end up with food poisoning from the crabs that I did eat! Rt 30 Seafood is terrible! Do not ever go here!
And in case you don't believe me, go to the PA Dept of Health website and look at all the violations this place has, it wasn't even in compliance with the heath dept code last year! https://www.pafoodsafety.state.pa.us/web/inspection/publicinspectionsearch.aspx

BEWARE!!!! Crab was room temperature and soggy. Service was slow. The waitress accused a neighboring table of eating the AYCE and was going to charge them $31.95. The lady insisted that she did not have one bite. They insisted she was caught on tape by the owner. The owner refused to come to the table. The lady said if she is shown the video of her eating the crab she would pay. The restaurant refused to show her the video. I would never come back. Are you kidding me? Where is the customer service.
