"When we lived in Abingdon from 2020 to 2022, Jac's had become our favored place to buy take out steamed crabs. The crabs were heavy reasonably priced. They sold sides such as fried clam strips snow crab clusters other seafood. We were always waited on by one or two woman. The food was always well prepared we enjoyed it. This year we ordered crabs for pickup along with steamed shrimp. They were no longer offering sides such as the fried clam strips. We do not live in Harford County any longer so we had specifically ordered from Jac's based on previous visits. The crabs were not bad but not great. Some were watery some were dry. They didn't seem fresh steamed although the crabmeat was edible and did taste good. The steamed shrimp had not had the back cut out before being steamed. Generally when cooking steamed shrimp the back vein where the shrimp excretes it's waste is removed that part is open when the shrimp are steamed. So all the shrimp were steamed with the dirty vein in tact, which then had to be removed cleaned out before the shrimp could be eaten. I ate one I could taste iodine so I knew they had been in a solution to keep them from degrading they were not fresh. I did not eat any more because I know the residue from that iodine solution would make me sick. Plus if I was tasting the iodine, I wasn't tasting the shrimp. I'm not saying I'll never buy from there again but since we purchased from there, I did go to a different steamed crab establishment not far from there this past weekend bought steamed crabs shrimp that were 100% better also reasonably priced. This used to be my usual go to for steamed crabs, so I think it will be again now. I don't know if Jac's is under new management or what, but there were no women waiting on us. Just one man that I saw when we picked up paid for our takeout order."

Both the crabs and the corn were delicious, moist and worth the price! But, what I enjoyed the most was the friendliness of the man who took my order. He was pleasant to chat with and he even brought my crabs to my car when they were ready. I had just gotten off of work and did a 16 hour day and was quite tired. I'm pleased to say that this brighted my ruff day and sent me off in a much better mood then I came lol. I meet so many rude people throughout the day. It's nice to meet the good ones once in a while.

I’m a new customer of Jac’s Crabs and these were some of the best crabs I’ve gotten since living in Maryland for over 5+ years. The seasoning was perfect and wasn’t spicy at all! The crabs were also meaty and sweet And the corn was soooo good! That was sweet as well, didn’t need any butter! I ordered a half dozen medium males, with corn on the side. They also have everything you need when picking up your order. I also ordered a crab knife and paper with my order. They had small containers of butter if needed in the cold case with other sauces as well as side dishes. And mallets if needed. I was able to place my order over the phone. The lady who took my order was so nice and answered any que...

"A restaurant in an absolutely beautiful.old building, the Martha Hotel. It's reaply more restaurant than grill, so if you make dinner reservations, bring something a step up from jeans to wear. The restaurant suggests business casual. The interior of the restaurant has panneled wood and traditional furniture, all very Old Virginia. There's a good looking small bar area too. We were seated by a fireplace. The food was ok, not great, My husband's Shepherd's Pie with sweet potato topping was just a weird taste combo with the sweet potatoes being too sweet for a savory dish, but the lamb was good in it and plentiful. My Cornish Game hen with wild rice was the smallest Cornish game hen I've ever seen. It needed a quick marinade in something acidic before grilling. The wild rice side didn't contain much wild rice and had little flavor. It was like banquet dinner food. Our wine was good and the baked goods were exceptional. The cheese biscuits the apple cake with vanilla ice cream were real treats perfect examples of their types. Our waitress was sweet but very overworked. We ordered about 15 minutes after we sat down and got our dinner 45 minutes after being seated. She did bring us our wine bread so we were ok with the very leasurly pace. It was as a busy Saturday night. I wonder if the teaspoon has gone extinct? We were brought larger dinner spoons with our dessert. (This seems to happen at most restaurants now. I questioned the waitress and she said they have five types of spoons, but she was in a hurry, thus the larger spoons. Why aren't they stocking the different spoons in wait stations teaching the servers to use them? This is a great place for dinner if you don't set your food expectations too high because of the beautiful old hotel it's in. Arrive early have a drink on the big porch or walk around look at the beautiful public rooms. Then order the safest thing on the menu some yummy apple cake for dessert."
