We were out fishing since early morning and were starving for lunch. Before we even entered the restaurant, Jerry was out there... greeting us and telling us all the great stuff he wanted us to try. True enough to his word, he brought out some samples of hisdishes that he wanted us to try: kale, stewed tomatoes, haddock bites, even the seasonal special: soft shell crab. He wandersoff to go talk to the other patrons, and then circle back to talk with us about his love of food. Super friendly service andthe decor is unique and cozy; you won't find a place like this very often and Jerry is a real treasure. The crab cake is a realwinner, huge portion size of sweet juicy crab meat with no filler. Probably the best tasting crab cake I've had in the DMV. Isit still a crab cake if it has no filler? Who cares, it's absolutely worth it. Wife had the fried shrimp stuffed with crabcakes. The fried shrimp had a very good firm texture and perfectly fried so the tails were edible too. The side of kale is notthe raw healthy salad it sounds like; it's cooked like collard greens. Stewed long with onions and bacon and it'sdelicious. Coleslaw is crispy and refreshing, light mayonnaise dressing without too much water. I'm always happy to see stewedtomatoes anywhere on a menu. Jerry's does it with loads of sugar and butter. Personally think there's too much sugar but Ican understand that other customers might enjoy it more that way. The soft shell crab was served with Jerry's homemade GeneralTso's sauce. Jerry explained he takes the carapace off because other places keep the carapace on to make it look like there'smore crab than there actually is; he just wants to serve the good stuff. The dark red sauce doesn't taste exactly like GeneralTso's, it's a bit sweeter and less savory but that strong sweet and sour flavor works with fatty fried soft shell crab all thesame. Keep working on it Jerry! Read more
Absolutely loved this place! We stopped in on our way home from a trip and didn?t know what to expect. The food was soooo good!... The owner was and his staff were so kind. He treated us and brought us free samples of his stewed tomatoes and cooked kale. Theyalso brought us rolls and fried haddock bites for free. We had the crab cakes and scallops for dinner. They tasted great! I wasnot disappointed at all. If you live in this area or are just passing through I highly recommend stopping in for a meal! Desertwas also a huge hit at our table. The flowerless chocolate cake was a perfect ending to our meal Read more

Just enjoyed a fantastic late lunch here. Reviews are consistent across various sites which led us here. Greeted by Jerry... himself. Cream of crab - delicious made with a bit of curry! Enjoyed oysters, shrimp and homemade key lime pie. Perfect. Chattedwith Jerry - friendly and fun. Unassuming place that is rockstar! We will be back! Read more
Great meal at Jerry's Place today. A quaint spot with a family oriented feel. There were plenty of pics of (I take) Jerry's... family on the walls. Our meal started with complimentary samples of haddock bites and warm rolls with butter. My meal consistedof the Mariner's platter (seafood variety), with baked potato and stewed tomatoes. Stewed tomatoes were a little sweet so Itopped my baked potato with them. The seafood was lightly breaded and seasoned just right. One friend had stuffed shrimp withcrab cake, baked potato and slaw. My other friend had haddock and junior crab cake with baked potato and seasoned kale. Ourserver provided excellent service. This was definitely a treat!! Read more
