Rigatoni’s Famous Crab Cakes

Horrible in deplorable service. Worker need to go back to school to learn proper etiquette.

Feel that it’s a bit overpriced, but the taste and quality is great.
The crab pretzels are the best!

WOW just WOW!
Phenomenal crab cake, ciabatta roll was soft (toasted as I asked for toasted, still soft) amazingly good.
Get the sauce that is their specialty– horse radish, mayonnaise, spices.
Just get it!

Sooooooo Good if I lived here in Delaware I would probably eat here all the time. The workers there are kind as well.

I love crabcakes. Lots of crabmeat and little filler. This is what Rigatonis is. I got the double six oz crabcake platter with potato salad. The place is clean, and it had a sit in area. The platter was delicious!!! The crabcakes were nicely broiled, potato salad a little too sweet for my taste. The star was the crabcake! I will return. The menu also has meal options for you to prepare these tasty crabcakes at home!!!

I can’t speak for the bad reviews, I can only speak for myself… my mom, sister and I went here on a limb (looking for the better wine deals) and my sister and I had the combo supreme. I also got the stuffed mushrooms, my sister had the stuffed shrimp. my mother got the mushrooms and shrimp… I was blown away… to say that these crab cakes have fillers in them is a bunch of bull crap. no fillers what so ever all crab meat. Ifk what the special sauce is but its so good. Everything was cooked to perfection. Its one young lady in there. slim, caramel complexion, sweetest approach and warming smile… she needs a raise. My order was delayed. she handled me with no hesitation… We’re in the car now raving about this place on instagram and Facebook. Forget the bad reviews and get in a car and try them out. I live in philly and will making another trip here.

Like many others have mentioned, I found Rigatonis Crab Cakes on a trip to Total Wine. I question the «famous» in their store name as I was totally disappointed in the crab cake they serve.
I’m aware they have a full restaurant in Delco
as I’ve been there before years ago. I forgot how disappointing these so called great crab cakes were.
Great crab cakes are comprised of jumbo lump crab and very little filler. These were packed with filler, NOT crab. Not panko bread crumb filler to just hold the cake together but some weird bread pudding like consistency filler. These are not great crab cakes. Unfortunately, the crab cake chains in the area aren’t much better. I love a great crab cake and the best I have found is in downtown Swarthmore at Occasionally Yours which offers them special on the first Friday of the month. Those are what great crab cakes taste like, not these.
I also had a Caesar salad which was good. The wonderful woman at the counter suggested the sesame ginger dressing and it was delicious. In fact, I was impressed with all the folks who worked there. Awake, alive, friendly and customer service driven — a pleasure compared to the zombies working at Total Wine.

For a small local place, the crab cakes are very delicious. The restaurant is set up like a pizza shop. You order at the counter to eat in or take out. They bring the food to you if you eat in. If you order to go, they call the number on your receipt when your order is ready.
My fiancé and I tried the place out the first week it opened. We each ordered a crab cake platter since they are known for their crab cakes. We also ordered a cup of soup each since it was cold out. The portions were small but the crab cake was very good. It was full of crab and not fillers.
The soups were amazing! I had a crab chowder and it was full of crab, not too creamy and great seasoning.
The second time we came, I ordered the crab cake sandwich. The brioche bun was a little too much for the 6 oz crab cake. I had to gut out the bun. That allowed me to enjoy the crab cake more.
The next day my sister came to visit and wanted to try it. This time we ordered the crab balls. Definitely not as good as the crab cakes. It was full of fillers and not a great way to introduce my sister to it.
My fiancé and i will definitely be back to give the rest of the menu a try.

Gray tasting crab cakes at a reasonable price. You would think with crab cakes so good that they are on the harbor.
