   We love going to the River Crab for dinner. A bit of a drive for us but well worth it. The staff is always welcoming. Food and beverages always done right. Our server Rhonda makes date night a special occasion. If we have a question about the beverages or food menu Rhonda knowledge helps us with our decision. Already looking forward to next time.

   Butter squash soup is so flavorful and the fish is always perfectly prepared. Waiter was Michael, polite, respectful not intrusive and answered all our questions. The River Crab is our neighborhood hidden gem.

   I love seeing the River up front and close, but for the life of me, could not remember why I chose to drive to the middle of nowhere for my birthday. Driving into the parking lot, I was still confused. The corner table was a bit small for our table of 7, but our server was there quickly. We ordered, then I remembered. The mocktail menu was just as creative as the cocktail menu - abd not all of them were sugar bombs of syrup. We ordered seconds on the oysters because they were so fresh and well presented and fought over the last bit of Brie. My hubby hates Brie and was fighting for the last scrap. The warm rolls with salmon pate were a treat. Next we enjoyed the dressing on the wedge salad and my daughter raved it was the best clam chowder she had ever had. The main dishes were so filling and delicious. My scallops with Risotto were perfect. Light, spongy, tasteful and delightful. The seasonal sweet potato risotto was a nice accompaniment. Hubby raved over his crispy duck. This is not a guy who raves. Ever. Sister scraped her plate clean of the burnt ends with roasted tomatoes, daughter didn’t want to stop eating her jumbo shrimp scampi but had no more room, mom went for her favorite fresh pan fried perch and dad loved his sole. They surprised us with their famous crème brûlée. Again, not something we would normally eat but we all LOVED IT. Job well done! Don’t overlook this long-standing gem.

   I was a little disappointed that the salad’s were Ala-cart when the meal was so expensive. However, the salad was worth it for the size of the serving. I guess it was more fair considering the size of it, to the price they charged $12.00. I got the New York strip for dinner included with potatoes and asparagus. The Asparagus serving was 3 spears. That felt a little sparse for the price of the meal. Again despite the sparse serving of Asparagus, I did enjoy my food. I enjoyed our server Melanie she was great. The hostess was wonderful, too very pleasant and made sure we enjoyed our service. We will have dinner there again.
