4.0 of 5 stars. If you're into steamed crabs, this is the place for you. We ordered a dozen extra large blue crabs and the waitress came back with the necessary tools: a brown paper table cover, mallets, a bucket,...

4.0 of 5 stars. Another great consistent lunch with a party of three. Both guests were from out of town so I recommended the Crab Cake, substitute Cole Slaw for fries. It went over extremely well. They were impressed...

4.0 of 5 stars. In town for business by myself and decided to take advantage of having a rental car and get out of the Inner Harbor area on my one free solo night. I had read reviews on this place, and seemed to be...

Disappointing experience--- mediocre to average crabs at best

I have been to Costas for crabs at least half a dozen times in the past few years and yesterday's experience was much less satisfying than in the past. We got 4 dozen of the 54's (which means $54 a dozen for a...

Yelp.com Review - by Sherry B.

5.0 of 5 stars. We consistently go to this "not-located-in-a-touristy-area" place to get the best steamed crabs every year. Ignore the slightly skeevy area they're located in (strip club down the street), and focus...

Yelp.com Review - by Dominic C.

5.0 of 5 stars. Probably the best place in the Baltimore area to get steamed crabs. I've eaten there several times and have not been disappointed.

the service & the food are outstanding

The food is as good as it gets. From the fresh salads, to the crab soup or burgers--you name it & it is awesome. I have been there many times & the service is always great! The crabs are always very good!

Yelp.com Review - by Asheley W.

5.0 of 5 stars. One of my favorite places to get crabs in Baltimore. The prices are usually more reasonable than some of the other big name crab houses but their food is just as good. Menu is full of other options if...

GOOD by Jessica L. at InsiderPages

Their crabs are some of the better ones I have had (I got the 35s). They are very dirty (the name MD gave for lots of seasoning). The only thing that I didn't like is when I asked for melted butter they didn't...

Yelp.com Review - by Sarah T.

4.0 of 5 stars. The atmosphere here is typical crab house, paper on the tables, nothing fancy at all. There's a "dinning room" side and the bar side, only difference I could see besides the obvious bar was table...

Great crab, interesting crowd

I stumbles upon Costa's driving around the coast of Maryland and was delighted to learn it's one of the top rated crab shacks around. The steamed crab was fabulous as was the Cream of Crab soup. The greek...

Can't Be Timid Here

Just roll up your sleeves (better yet don't wear any sleeves) and get at that sweet succulent crab meat. Ask one of the servers to show you the proper way to eat a crab or you'll spend the whole night there....
