Blue Point Crab House II

I have been buy crabs from here for about 10 years. This week I tried to place an advance order for Father’s Day. They told me they weren’t taking advance orders and I had to call back on Sunday (today). I called at 10:00, one hour before official opening time, and was told that they were sold out due to advance orders!!! I have never been so angry and disappointed about anything!!!

Such a waste of money … Consistently over priced for terrible quality. I can’t give them anymore business, after dozens of tries. No quality control. Money can be better spent at other crab houses.

I waste of gas stop coming a long time ago but this day I figured I would try them out again. They had a buy 12 med for $ 45 get 6 more free so I did got home, they was under cooked smelled bad wrong color, took them back cant get my money back so he cooked more and going to have the f … mind to tell me here you go and I add some more good ones for you, ok got back home to try a again I will not waste anymore gas going still some BS crabs and after counting he shorted me more then what the sale was … DONT WASTE YOUR GAS OR MONEY

Hadn’t been here in a while. Staff was very friendly as I remembered. I had a crabcake and fries. Crabcake was good but small and there were bits of shell in EVERY bite. Not cool. I guess I will keep this as a crab spot if I’m desperate. They do have a $ 2 crab nite but only in summer I think. Their crabs are $$$$$$ but they are the only crab spot in the area

Service is not so great, girl who answers the phone acts as if she’d rather be somewhere else… crabs are sometimes empty… you’re lucky if you get a good batch, don’t get so comfortable because you will eventually get a bad one. It’s a luck of the draw.

I’m looking for blue crabs for family gathering and luckily found them. They are the only ones selling near our area so even its 15 mins drive I did go for it. Took them 20 mins to prepare phone order and I picked up steam crab right on time. My relatives were very happy and told me to bring them the same the next time I visit them.
Kuddos to this place! Surely be back soon… :-)

The crabs were not seasoned and I got two very light crabs with no meat in the dozen. Disappointing.

Been going here for years. On a whim I wanted crabs. I ordered a dozen and a half «jumbos». I worked in the crab business for years and know when they sort crabs some establishments do this by weight. I look at the crabs and thought they looked small so I pulled out a ruler. These crabs were 6 ½″ point to point and light. Called to speak to manager and ask if these were jumbo what are small. (btw state law is 5 inches). No response. The only thing I would recommend would be a different crabhouse to get crabs. If you go here remember you have been warned. STAY AWAY!!!

Blue Point Crab House is a no frills carryout joint serving seafood, but specifically freshly steamed blue crabs. They always carry several sizes of crabs ranging from small to jumbo with reasonable prices. The crabs are always very good quality — nothing but full/​heavy male crabs. Even their medium crabs are pretty meaty for their size. Also, the seasoning is just right. Blue Point seems to use an old bay base with a few additional spices to permeate the crabs — not too salty or spicy.
Blue Point is the best for carry-​out crabs because of their Tuesday through Thursday $ 2 crab special. They offer a mixed bag of crabs, consisting of primarily medium with some small and large crabs for only $ 2 per crab. Some places around town may offer a comparable or better deal, but as described above, the quality is better than almost every other carry-​out place I have tried.
Get your blue crabs from here, you won’t be disappointed. If you want to avoid the wait just call ahead and place the order.

Had the $ 4 large friday special today. They were very heavy and seasoned perfectly. The crab pretzel was also amazing, definitely recommend getting one of those. Can’t wait to go back to get more crabs soon!

Maybe I went on an off day, but the crabs were an utter disappointment. The crabs lacked seasoning, despite the fact that I requested extra and extremely watery. I will stick with Reter’s Crabhouse.

Terrible customer service. Immature kids are running it and screwing around in the back and they mess up orders. Today, no one was in there but somehow it took 35 min for a crabcake platter. They should be embarrassed. A popular restaurant reviewer/​blogger was with me and had terrible words to say about the place. Also food is overpriced…

I’ve been to this location a few times when I’m in the area. (I typically go to their Westminster location). I have always had great service each time I’ve visited. They are friendly and their crabs are some of the best I’ve had. Only comparison is the Westminster location. :) The spice they use is great. Their «Large» are… LARGE! Very delicious. I certainly will not be going back to CJs, and will continue using their two locations in Westminster or here in Owings Mills.

This Blue Point Crab House is good enough to come again, though sometimes the waiting time can be extremely irritating and tests my already limited patience. The person at the front counter may tell you 10 minutes on your order, but it can take 20 minutes or when they ask, «when do you want them ready?» you tell them 20 minutes and it may take 35 minutes. This backwards timing could be due to the fact that they want everyone to have hot, fresh seafood.
It seems that on some days BPCH is short on staff, but they still give satisfactory customer service, as well as samples of various salads offered. I’ve seen macaroni, seafood, and potato salads among several others in the case. Also crabs, snow crab clusters, shrimp of different sizes, crab cakes, etc. BC has several dessert snacks like cupcakes and slices of cake. Finally, even a fresh lobster tank for your amusement while you wait and to pick your tail to be cooked.
The seasoning is regularly spicy, not over done and works well… I think it’s Old Bay… it makes my nose run after eating several. No complaints on the seasonings, but of course the sizes of the crabs differ everytime based on whatever excuse came along the line of the crab coming out of the water.
You compare and yeah… give them a ring…
