Jerry's Seafood "Home of the Crab Bomb"

Stopped in here during a work trip due to the good reviews and a local recommendation. I was torn between the seafood platter and the "Crab Bomb" but since it seemed to be what they're known for, I have it a try. I'm glad I did! It was cooked just right, tasted fresh, and wasn't overloaded with seasoning. I also got the veggie of the day, scallion string beans, they were good too. I thought it was a bit of a high price for it, but there's so much crab, I felt it was a fair price after all. I'll be back to try the platter in the future!

Listen, I am extremely late to the game as I have been needing to try this restaurant for about a year. Decided to try them after a trip to the zoo. Was seated immediately, and my server was Mixy. When I tell you she is absolutely FABULOUS 👌. Found out she has been working for the restaurant for about 14 years. She is top-notch. Never forgot anything and was spot on with the recommendations. She never made you feel like she was rushing you to order or to wrap up your meal. She will be requested when I go back.

Let's talk about the food... soup phenomenal. I went with the crab bisque based on Mixy's recommendation. I loved it so much that I went back several days later for takeout. The restaurant is about 35-45 minutes away as I live in Virginia, but well be worth the drive. Also had the crab dip which I can attest to being delicious even when coming straight out of the fridge. The crab bomb was probably my least favorite item. Now, before you attack me for saying something about the most well-known item on the menu. I'm not saying the crab bomb is bad. I'm just saying out of all of the items ordered, I could leave or take it honestly.

My mom ordered the fried fish, and it came out golden brown and perfectly crispy. It unfortunately has a sweet cornmeal batter, which honestly we weren't a fan of. I would love it if there was another option.

Green beans smh don't eat those that's all I will say about that.

Lastly, the pound cake. My mother can bake, I can bake my grandmother made a bomb pound cake. Listen, that lemon pound cake that was served to me that day was so darn delicious, and I normally will say nobody can come close to my mother's or grandmother's pound cake. Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Trust me, you will thank me later.

Don't walk! Run to Jerry's and ask for Mixy! Sit a spell and enjoy all the yummy items on that menu.

We came for the crab bombs and we were not disappointed!! They were huge and filler free!! Fairly priced as well. The calamari was also a highlight and our server, Eddie, was very friendly and attentive!

If you are looking for all crab meat in a crab cake look no further. Came here the day after the snow storm and there was hardly anyone there so the wait time was little to none. Staff were great and food was Good Good!!!

Finally got to Jerry’s Seafood to get a crab bomb! It was a busy Sunday, but fortunately I was able to snag a seat at the bar so I could watch football. I had an old fashioned that was tasty…then got my baby crab bomb! I paired it with sautéed green beans and a baked potato and was very happy! It was just enough food that I didn’t feel stuffed and the crab bomb was perfect! Plenty of parking and the bartenders were lovely…in fact, a basket of bread was set next to me and I wasn’t even sure it was mine 😂

Oysters were fresh and delicious, lump crab cakes (fried and broiled) with no filler, warm rolls with warm butter. We had a large party and were seated promptly. Great experience here.

I've been coming to Jerry's since they were in Lanham. It was where I wanted to go for my high school graduation dinner in 1994. They have been consistently great. I've never had an issue or a meal I was not completely happy with.

Fresh crab is known for its tender, sweet, and delicate white meat. The flavor of crab can range from mild to slightly briny, depending on the type and preparation.

Ohhhh my! Best Crab cake I have ever had! NO FILLER! They got the right name “ Home of the Crab Bomb” I hope they never twerk the CRAB BOMB because it is truly the best! Restaurant is CLEAN, Service and Atmosphere was great as well! I will travel back all the way from PA to eat here again.

First time.

PROS: Service & atmosphere was excellent. Food was great, The Crab Bomb is defiantly all crab meat & no filler!

CONS: Kinda sucks that the dishes don't come with sides, thats separate. The crab meat on top of Cream Crab Soup is all the meat you get, still good tho. Only thing lacking was flavor. Had to add salt & Old Bay constantly while eating both dishes.

Loved this place, very good food. The Mariners Platter is a good sampler with a variety of items to try.

The lump crab cakes are broiled and loaded with real, juicy, and tender pieces of crab meat without all the fillers. The service was great, and the atmosphere was okay. It's extremely busy, so I suggest arriving earlier or being prepared to wait. The string beans with the garlic seasoning... DELICIOUS. The calamari were delicious, but I personally do not care for sweetened marinara sauce for them... having a choice of whether you prefer sweet or unsweetened would make things better. The sweet tea (the diabetic tea) is a treat, but ask for a glass of water just in case. Overall, this is worth stopping by.

Jaw dropping food that's loaded with flavor. If you're in the mood for crab, get the crab bomb, no questions asked. It's easily the best crab entree I've had and it's absolutely loaded with fresh crab and so delicious. We had the dip and calamari as well which was also incredible. Hats off to the staff, we sat in the bar because there was a two hour wait and they took excellent care of us.

First I want to say I love trying new restaurants -was looking up seafood in Bowie and found this one, drove 1hr . Arrived at 3:50 pm on Saturday,had to wait for an hour to get seated Really don't mind just headed back to the car 45 minutes later received a text message that my table was ready. We got seated and everything was great from there the waitress was amazing. Will be going back again ever if I have to wait for an hr.

This is
My first time eating at this restaurant. Our waitress (Erin) suggested that we try the crab bomb! Let me tell you how it exploded with pure crab lump , no filler cooked to perfection! The service, food and atmosphere was worth the hour wait. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Love it! Food is great! Customer service is wonderful. I'd give more stats if I could!!

I purchased crab cakes from this restaurant through Goldbelly and let me tell you; OMG those were the best non filer crab cakes I have ever had!!! Paid a lot for them but I will do it again and again! Nothing but crabmeat; no filers!!!

The food was very good. I wanted a little bit of everything so I tried the Mariner's Platter with steamed shrimp, fried shrimp, fried haddock, fried crab cake, fried oysters, and fried scallops. Their crab bomb and crab dip also were very delicious. Real crab meat 💯

Lunch with my co workers. Not to busy and enough wait staff. Food delivered in a timely fashion. Calamari was tasty, the marinara sauce was a little sweeter than I like but good. The prices have increased as with everything else. Nice sized crab & shrimp bomb and it did not disappoint. It would have been nice to have lunch portion & pricing. I would visit again.

It's a perfect crab bomb every time. It's a bit more than just a Maryland style crab cake. It's seasoned very well, and you have a choice of the 6 oz or the 10 oz versions. Not to mention, their other menu items taste good, too. Jerry's is always a good experience.
