Bobby Chez

Would have received 4 stars if not for the awful attitude of the people behind the counter. Went in on a Sunday and purchased a chicken and 2 crab cakes. The girl behind the counter was unfriendly when we walked in and when I asked for tartar and cocktail sauce for the crab cakes rolled her eyes. I’m already paying $ 8 for each crab cake and did not ask for it with a side of attitude. In the future will probably go to Wegmans for the chicken and skip the crab cakes.

I am torn on this review because we like the food so much. However, there is often no rhyme or reason to how crabcakes are be prepared. We are fans of broiled crab cakes but it shows up only sporadically and we were told by staff the cherry hill location has it more regularly and they (mt. laurel) location is often at mercy of what cherry hill location ships to them. For example last week the crab cakes showed up in empty crab shells. I found several broken shells in meat. What is most confusing is that when broiled crab cakes show up… they sell out in just few hours (every time). So if your running a business and you see something sell out why not keep it coming. Makes zero sense to me. Did I mention food was outstanding.

This place has great seafood. I’m never disappointed. It’s a little on the high side though. But it’s totally worth it. Awesome crab cakes! What would have given them five stars? Personally, I don’t think two people is enough to serve customers on a Sunday. Also, Sierra Mist, Orange Crush, Cola and water are the only options for refreshments. Everyone is different but I must add that if you serve oysters you should also have hot sauce available. But overall I would recommend this place.

The food is good but very overpriced. Service at the counter was not very friendly.

Excellent crabcakes, the fried fish and shrimp are great and I love the chicken tenders too but the side dishes are hit or miss. Mac n cheese? Not good but others are great, see what looks good that day. Some items are overpriced for what they are but I usually just stock up on crabcakes

Went for lunch and the $ 5.99 mini crab cake special. The crab cakes were small but steamed to have a good balance of crab and filler. Meal came with fries and slaw. There were a lot of fries. The meal was hot as they cook it right then and there. Usually it is par cooked for take home. I think with the size of the cakes, they should reduce the amount of fries and add an additional cake. Drink is not included. Overall it was good and I would recommend it.

Always great every time we go! Always get crabcakes and clams, this time tried the chicken croquets– very good– but — would rather have seafood– Service was great. the girl at the counter was so friendly and professional.

I really should write two separate reviews but here is the average rating as a result of my mixed experience.
The crab cakes were very good. The chicken croquette meal was also very tasty and very reasonably priced. The kids loved the mac and cheese balls.
The problem was the fried oysters. 2 pieces for a meal which includes fries for $ 9.99. A bit expensive relative to everything else. That itself is not an issue. But they must not have been fresh, since they made my husband sick.
So stick with their more popular items. You have to be careful with seafood since it goes bad quite easily.

I stop here often on my way home from work — food is par-​cooked and you finish at home. The instructions they give are spot on & everything comes out perfect. Everything I’ve tried has been high quality, fresh and absolutely delicious. Try the oysters, they’re gigantic! Also love their crabcakes, shrimp, fried clams, shrimp puffs… I could go on and on.

Set out for Bobby Chez because it’s Friday during Lent. Ordered the crabcakes, BBQ Salmon, garlic mashed, macaroni and cheese, spinach and long hot peppers. Everything was delicous, and everyone enjoyed the meal. The crabcakes are pure crab-​no filler, with a nice crispy coating. The mac n cheese was perfect as was the garlic mashed. The garlic mashed were smooth, creamy, fresh and had real pieces of roasted garlic cloves. The spinach was fresh, not overcooked and spiced with garlic and pepper. Friendly, super helpful service from the man behind the counter. Delicious! Thanks Bobby!

Did not like at all! They pride themselves on having the best crabcake… however it was not good at all. I ordered the mini crabcake and it had chunks of crab it in, yet it was very salty and very fishy. And they cost almost $ 3 each!!! Also ordered the lobster mashed potatoes, which went right in the garbage. They were so fishy smelling and tasting. Also ordered the soup special of the day which was a potato cream soup. The was a little watered down but tasted good.
Will definitely not go back to this place. Food was terrible, service was poor (bad attitude and complaining while ringing me up), and prices were high! Such a waste of my money!

This review is for the Mt Laurel location… The crab cakes are really good, but the prices. wow and the service/attitude-lousy.Went to BC last night (after work) and ordered $ 75 worth of food for MIL B-Day/Mom’s day celebration. The prices are high and the portions seem smaller-​got gypped on an order of scallops (4 scallops for $ 9-​it $ 2.25 per scallop) 3 were pretty huge and one was puny– and I mean Mrs Paul’s frozen nugget size-​puny. The FIRST TIME I mentioned it to the counter person all I got was a shrug. When again I called him on it, «Hey dude seriously-​for this price shouldn’t they all be at least the SAME size»? The response was snarky, «What do you want me to do-​cook another one»? I should have said yes, but at that point I had paid the bill and had 5 hungry people waiting at home-​so I left. Told my groom and joy that next time we’ll go to Wegman’s and order prepared foods-​prob get more bang for the buck and better service.

Bobby Chez des nt email daily specials anymore and it is difficult to access this information. Are they getting ready to close their doors?

Joyce, I can’t remember ever getting any emails from Bobby Chez, even after registering for them for a second time…
I’m not too worried about it though. It’s not like their menu ever change. And the savings would be minimal. Especially since their prices are great already for what they serve. Anyplace else would charge twice the amount for the crabcakes.
Their workers used to go out of their way to not have to heat your food up, but I haven’t had that problem in quite awhile. I guess they realized that they’re more of a takeout place than anything… Plenty of people are stopping in for lunch or on their way to the beach or shopping, rather then taking their food home to heat up for dinner.
It’s a Chik Fil A type of experience when you go there… The service is always polite, and you actually recieve what you ordered… Hot, edible, and satisfying…

They have the best crabcakes ever. I also love their potato salad. The staff is always friendly and helpful. We always get our food to take out. It comes with directions for heating it at home. I have also had their chicken pot pies and mac and cheese balls with marinara. I like everything on their menu.

Crabcakes — AMAZING! Real chunks of crab!!!
Lobster Mashed Potatoes — made my day
Baked Mac and Cheese Balls — pretty good but not sure if worth the calories.
Thank you Zagat!
