Waterman ‘s Pride Seafood

Waterman’s Pride catered a crab feast on 8÷21÷15 at the Seven Oaks Senior Center. While the crabs were on the small side, they were full and heavy. The staff was attentive and kept the crabs coming. They did a great job clearing the shells and worked in a very professional manner. The additional food provided was rated delicious by everyone at our table.

I usually I’m pretty happy with Watermans however today there was a fill in from the Towson office named Emma H and she was disgusting. The worst attitude ever. Not only is her customer service awful and she was extremely rude, I witnessed her dropping someone’s order on the ground and put the crabs back in the bag and gave it to the customer. What the heck kind of professionalism is that? I am extremely upset with the service that I received today. It was so bad I’m not sure I will be back. Please handle this issue. ASAP. God Bless

This review is based on carryout dinner only, not the crabs. This little spot is in a shopping center on my way home from work, right by our go-​to Chinese carryout and the DBF’s fave chain Carrabba’s. It is carryout only.
I bought a Groupon for Waterman’s Pride the other day and decided to check out their seafood combo appetizer platter when I had a jones for some fried goodness. For $ 14 you get four fried shrimp, four crab balls and some fried clams. I also got an order of onion rings ($ 2.50). I enjoyed everything I ordered and it totally satisfied my craving, especially the shrimp and onion rings. I was surprised by the shrimp, nice large butterflied shrimp. Tasty. The crab balls were decently sized, smaller than a ping pong ball but they did contain some lump meat in each. The clams were good, not as crispy as I would have liked but I blame that on the nice steam they received in the box on the drive home in rush hour traffic. The onion rings were just right, crispy and yummy.
Service was great too; while my order was being assembled, the super nice girl behind the counter offered me some coleslaw, pasta or macaroni salad on the house. She said that they had had an event and it was leftover and they were trying to get rid of it. So I got to try their coleslaw for free, and as a bonus it was really good!
Note to Unilocalers looking for crabs, when you check in here you can get a free roll of paper.
This place has good food and a convenient location for me. I plan to come back to try other items on their menu in the near future.

After my previous experience, the owner sent me a message personally apologizing for our experience and offering to give us another try. It seems as if she made some changes with her staff. We gave them a shot and were much more pleased with the results this time. Just the way Baltimore crabs should be. :-)

This place has improved drastically since the last time we were there. We had crabs, steamed shrimp, and corn. The crabs were steamed nicely and seasoned well. The steamed shrimp were also steamed nicely and seasoned well. The corn on the cob was perfect!
The service was also much better than my first experience. I would recommend that you give them a try!

I’m not sure why this shop isn’t rated. And although I’m giving it a 2 stars, it’s definitely worth a trip.
So, this is why it’s getting 2 stars… the $ 1 crabs.
Having just moved to the Balt area, we are becoming crab addicts. Not just the meat, but the whole shebang of deconstructing the crab and beating the hell out of it with the crab hammer. But here’s the thing… we can’t afford $ 75 every few days for a dozen crabs.
So after my sashimi lunch, I ventured over to this shop to see what the deal was. The deal was $ 1 crabs. They’re small crabs. And I couldn’t figure out the size difference between them and the 12/​$ 18 crabs. But I decided I’d blow $ 10 on 10 of these chumpies and if I didn’t get a lot of crab meat I’d at least get the pleasure/​pain of hot moist crab spice getting into unknown cuts on my hands.
So I order them and wait… and wait… and wait. Seriously, I wait about 30 mins for these crabs. At about minute 20 I happen to ask if they’re cooked with spice or if I had to ask for it (because I note the 12/​$ 18 crabs are cooked with no spice). Oh, yeah, she tells me. They’re cooked with spice. Sweet.
I’m doing 70mph on Rt43 to get home and tear into these crabs. I. Am. Jonesin.
What an effin disappointment! I could have gotten a ticket for this BS.
They’re small, sure. I don’t care about that. But I wait 30 mins for luke warm pre-​cooked crabs that they threw dry spice onto. They were so bad, I wasn’t sure if they threw the crabs into a steamer or into the microwave. The meat was mushy and the crab spice didn’t stick to the crab. I NO UNDERSTAND!
So, that made me think… is this what their other crabs taste like?
