Cantler's Riverside Inn

Couldn't be happier with our experience. Wait wasn't bad (Sunday night at 8pm) and spent the extra time watching the crabs and walking the docks. Fresh seafood cooked to order, piping hot when it came out. Great service and atmosphere. Hands-down the best old bay seasoning. And shout-out to Kaitlyn who was the sweetest waitress and went above and beyond. Can't wait to eat here again

Cantler’s is always a great time. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and you can see the water from the restaurant. Dress is casual. We had the Medium crabs while there and they tasted like Chesapeake Bay crabs to me. The wait staff were all kind and helpful, and available. The crabs were good, the Key Lime Pie was yummy, and the coffee was decent.

A true Maryland style setup right on the water. Great views and good food. I got the captain lou’s platter. The crab cake was good but the rockfish was tough. I wish I would have gotten the broiler vs fried so my mistake. The soft shell crab was good and the fries were crisp. My wife got the lump crab imperial which was very tasty. The veggies were cooked just right. We were going to get the all you can eat (Maryland) crabs but we decided that we wanted to go other places for our date night. I would go back for the Maryland blue crabs. Great atmosphere or vibe.

Oh boy is this place good. This is the way crab should taste. Amazing! Their clam strips are delicious, they are not some overpriced frozen reheated concoction, these are have breaded. So much flavor. This is a must stop. Their soup is so rich and flavorful. Very creamy. My one small complaint is the Boston cream cake doesn't have enough Boston cream for my tastes.

I’m always going to be team Cantler for the best crab house. I’ve never had a bad meal here. The service is wonderfully basic (the waitresses come and throw all the seafood you order efficiently and know that your hands are covered in seafood juice and old bay.) and they replace any dead seafood. I will continue to come back whenever I’m in the neighborhood.

For a rainy day the place was packed, we seated on the porch side and was a great view. Staff very friendly and work quick to get ur order. Stopped for a quick bite to try crab cake it was tasty kinda pricy for the one you see on the pictures, it comes with bread I choose not to get bc my goal was only to try the crab by itself. Great for large groups.

River front restaurant. Friendly staff, good quality of seafood. You can dock your boat by the restaurant if you come by boat. The reason I gave only 4 stars is because the large size of crabs that we ordered aren’t the large size we were expecting. The price for large is $100/dozen and medium is $65/dozen. I felt being ripped off for the crab size. They seemed to be more like medium size. 1 of them is either over cooked or dead crab before it was cooked because the meat is mushy. A couple of them are missing claws and light weight. So we returned 2 of them and got 2 replaced with the same medium size. I was convinced that the crabs we got were medium size because the couple next to us confirmed that they ordered medium size and the crabs they got were actually larger than any of our crabs. We probably should’ve returned all of the crabs and asked for the correct size or adjust the price to medium size price. We were happy with the mussels and shrimp. My boyfriend said the key lime pie was good. I can’t have dairy so I didn’t taste it.They get the dessert from local bakery in Annapolis. Note: The picture of the crabs I posted looks larger than in person.
