Capt Zeak's Crab House and Seafood: Reviews & Ratings

Called ahead to order crabs for Father's day! They were ready at scheduled time. Had crabs cleaned and sautéed. Cost $8.00 extra for the whole dozen. Well worth it! Crabs were split, cleaned, and ready to eat. They are sautéed in garlic butter and old bay. Now, I can never eat crabs any other way. My husband also got oysters shucked. I believe that was an extra $12.00. But also worth it. They are served over ice with lemons in a nice tray. Everything was so fresh!

I ordered a snow crab steam pot with jumbo shrimp. Only complaint is the order didn’t include Jumbo shrimp like I ordered more like large but everything was delicious! Would definitely recommend and be back!. I also got seafood salad which I ate in the store. Very tasty

I’ve been searching for seafood restaurants that sell good quality crabs, cleaned snd seasoned. I happen to see a friends post on Facebook and to my surprise a tray of crabs cleaned and seasoned with garlic butter. I had to try it. I am super glad I did because I have since ordered at least 8 more times! I’m hooked. You can order online and even select a time. I get the XL crabs they are nice and meaty! The service is good. I found my place.They have a nice menu of various seafood options! A must try. Thanks Captain Zeaks!

I’ve been going to Captain Zeaks consistently for about a year or more now. I am always raving about their body make crabs with garlic seasoning! Very meaty and flavorful. If you haven’t tried the crab sauce in your butter, you’re missing out! SO GOOD!! My order is always prepared when I arrive. The staff go above and beyond to ensure their customers are happy. Please always speak up if you are not satisfied as they will most certainly rectify the issue. I would like to call out Shy specifically. She always takes my order with a smile, very well spoken and attentive. Thank you to the entire Captain Zeak’s team that makes it happen Monday-Sunday. You have a loyal customer 100%

I go here for nice heavy meaty crabs and they sometimes have good deals. They have everything you need to eat blue crabs. Everything down to the delicious dipping sauce to the spicy seasonings. They have different seafood delights. Every kind of seafood to feed that need. The staff is exceptional and the employee Ken Ken took care of my husband and I. He definitely on his job,he deserves a raise fr fr. But anyway I definitely recommend this place. Very good
