Fantastic Barbeque, and Big Fresh Steamed Crabs! 5 Stars!!!

by EdwardFeldman90 at Citysearch

My family, and I moved from Texas to New Jersey due to my job. We have eaten at many of New Jersey's fine restaurants, Some good, some so-so. We were sitting in a restaurant talking to another couple when the subject of Barbecue came up. My Wife was stating, since we moved to the East coast, we haven't eaten a decent southern meal. The couple recommended Rascals. They said they ate the beef brisket, and it was so tender, that they didn't need a knife!!! In Texas we know Beef brisket! Well we had to give it a go. Saturday evening we packed up and drove 1 1/2 hrs to eat at Rascals. I got to say....it was worth the trip!!! There was five of us, we LOVE it! The service was great, the place was very clean, and most of all the barbecue was amazing. I haven't had such good Q since I left Texas!!! My sons had fresh steamed Jumbo crabs. They were so big, they filled up, and took the rest home. I must say.....If you are ever in Delaware.....try Rascals, you will feel like licking the plate!!!

• Pros: Owner is there everyday. Super nice staff. Great food!
• Cons: I live over an hour away!

Great Casual Family Crab House!!!

by EdwardFeldman at Citysearch

My Family, and I have been dinning at Rascals since 1981. I remember this because the first time we ate there was my son's Birthday. He wanted crabs, so we treated him to his first time eating crabs! He was a very happy 10 year old that day! My friends,and co-workers also love Rascals. It is a wonderful family run business since 1965. Recently nine of us from work, the American Cancer Society, met there, and had a blast. We ate BBQ ribs, pulled pork, Steamed shrimp, and of course BIG heavy Louisiana steamed Crabs!!! I can honestly say the waitstaff are very efficient, and helpful. They have a very nice casual atmosphere at Rascals. I highly recommend Rascals for fresh seafood, and smoke BBQ.

• Pros: Smoked BBQ, Fresh Seafood, Crabs Year Round.
• Cons: Highly addictive!!!

LADIES WATCH OUT FOR THE TRASHY WAITRESS THERE!!!

by Sunrise74 at Citysearch

Our family has been going to Rascals for about 14 years. The food has always been great and we have never had a problem until recently!

My husband calls there almost every week, goes there with our kids, to pick up take out.

Recently a bleached blond waitress named "Chrissy" who works there took it upon herself to take my husbands phone number off their caller ID to find out his "status". Even after he told her he was married and not interested in her she continued to taunt him with her unwanted sexual advances!!!

We have told the owners about this and to our she surprise she still works there!

It's obviously not the family place it used to be.

• Cons: UNWANTED SEXUAL ADVANCES
