The Crab Claw is an independently owned restaurant located in St. Michaels, Maryland. Initially a clam-shucking business in the 1950s, the establishment expanded to include a seafood eatery in 1965. [1]

The restaurant, a casual dining establishment, is located on the Miles River. [1] They serve beer, including their own Crab Claw Ale. [2] They rely heavily on Old Bay Seasoning in their food, a local spice blend. The skipjack H.M. Krentz departs from the restaurant's dock on daily excursions. [3]

The Crab Claw was featured on Food TV's Fabulous Summer Fun [4] and in Paula Deen's May 2010 issue. [4] It was awarded "Best Maryland Crab Cakes" by Southern Living Magazine. [4]
