I went to Robertson's Crab House last weekend and was extremely disappointed. My husband got the all you can eat Crabs, I ordered the Soft-shell Crab Dinner, and my three-year old son got the kids shrimp basket. Until now I have really enjoyed my experience at Robertson's. I have always preferred their food over Captain Billy's, and the short wait times. But my experience was just too bad to ever go back.
First of all, my son's basket contained 4 small-medium sized fried shrimp, and it cost 9.00. It didn't even fill him up and he is 3, I feel sorry for any older children that make the same mistake. My husbands crabs were awful, they were clearly flown in from elsewhere because there wasn't one over 4 inches in length. Every one was poor, and a few were clearly stuck in the pot dead because they came out smelling god awful!!! For 27.99, my husband ate 8 crabs before he was so disgusted he couldn't bring himself to eat anymore without hurling. After seeing this horrible display of steamed crabs I asked the waitress the size of the crabs they were serving to those that ordered them by the dozen and she informed me they were the same ones my husband was receiving. Then, to top everything off, my softshell crabs were fried so long that I almost choked to death when eating the legs.
I was a loyal Robertson's customer, but from now on I think I am going to stick to my local St. Mary's County Crab Houses that have never failed me!!!
