Anne Arundel Seafood: Fresh Seafood and Family-Friendly Dining in Pasadena, MD

What a great find! Food was delicious… fried perfection… employees friendly and helpful! Wish we had a place like this back home! I will definitely be back when in the area again!

The best place to go if you’re ever driving through Maryland. The staff is incredible. If you’re a newbie to eating crabs, they’ll notice and give you a little how-to on breaking them down. Flavor is immaculate. Can’t wait to return!!

Been a fan of Anne Arundel Seafood for 7 years now. The food is ALWAYS FRESH and DELICIOUS. The service A+ in a 'Welcome home' kind of way (that is pretty prolific for the area particularly for the package stores in Maryland ). They always make me feel like they authentically appreciate your patronage and that alone makes you want to swing around again. The set up is interesting as you can get literally any type of seafood you're looking for fried, steamed, & raw respectively! Dining room is comfortable but occasionally drafty in the cooler months. They can hold the title of BEST SEAFOOD RESTAURANT in Maryland pretty easily (Go! I promise you'll agree) You're welcome...

Crab and oyster quality was amazing. Loved the raw oysters on the half shell. Ordered potato salad but got macaroni salad which was also very good. Sandwich, salad and crabs need to be ordered in the other section. Seafood sampler missed an ear of corn but they fixed it right away. The corn was super sweet and loaded with butter. The price for a pitcher of premium beer was also reasonable. Will definitely return next time in the area.

Had a date night with my son last Friday. Food was excellent, had lobster tails, dungeons crab and crawfish...everything was steamed perfectly and the service was great!

My fav here is the mixed seafood sub. Squeeze some lemon over it. Sooo good! I got carryout. The sub was over stuffed with goodness! It was difficult to find the roll. Lol. Use two hands to pick it up and enjoy.

We've been meaning to try this after moving to the area last year. What a great no-frills seafood place. You seat yourself and grab some paper to cover your table. There is a room with raw items, that you can get steamed (crabs, crab legs, mussels, shrimp, clams, veggies, etc). We ordered a dozen raw oysters for $18. They also have beer by the bottle or on tap too. There is also another room where you can order fried/baked items and salads, and soups (crab cakes, fried oysters, hush puppies, etc). They have a service area with all the sauces, seasonings, vinegars, cocktail sauce, old bay, etc). Prices are great, everything is fresh, and very casual. Great spot to bring an out of town guest who wants to sample all the MD seafood has to offer.

Nice inexpensive place to get a seafood meal.. I mean compared to going out to a full scale restaurant! You can order a full meal or what we did was order individual seafood sandwiches or like a fried hardshell crab..or the stuffed shrimp with a crabcake and a coating around it and deep fried. They also have fresh shrimp, scallops, fish etc that you can buy by the pound and they cook it up for you. The reason for a 4 star rating on the food was that the batter they use to fry the seafood in is a bit over bearing for my hubby and I. But we just picked it off. And , except for how you want your shrimp cooked, as far as I know, everything is fried. It's not a full scale restaurant from what I could tell, like you go up and order everything, and you pick it up when they call your number. They have picnic tables inside that you can sit at, and some seating outside. I'm not trying to pick it apart...just trying to give a honest review. If you're looking for a full scale restaurant...it's not. But you also don't pay those full scale prices either!
