Clemente's Maryland Crab House – Seafood
The rhythmic tap of wooden mallets on brown-paper-lined tables sets the tempo at this lively seafood haven, where the air is thick with the savory aroma of Old Bay and the spirit of a coastal summer. Heaping platters of blue crabs, steamed to a vibrant crimson and dusted in spice, invite diners to roll up their sleeves and dive into a messy, joyful feast of sweet meat and melted butter. It is a place where the unpretentious charm of the shore comes to life, turning every communal table into a celebration of sun-drenched days and authentic Maryland tradition.

What diners are saying
Diners rave about this waterfront gem in Sheepshead Bay, celebrating its cozy atmosphere and beautiful outdoor seating right by the marina. Standout dishes include the "ridiculously delicious" lobster ravioli with real meat, tender black pasta, and Maryland blue crab seasoned with Old Bay and garlic butter. While some found certain items bland or the fries too skinny, guests consistently praise the attentive, friendly service and fresh seafood like fried flounder and calamari.
