Captain Leonard’s Seafood does not disappoint! The steamed crabs are fresh and perfectly seasoned, the local fried oysters are incredible, and every dish is top-notch. Easily one of the best seafood spots in Southern Maryland — worth the trip every time!

Well I'm going to tell it today,Captain Leonard's is a well kept southern maryland secret. Outstanding service, great tasting seafood and a south county laid back feel. Don't let the exterior fool you this place is were you go to get crab happy madness. When you want to get away from the chain seafood give these guys a try.

Out of towners, recommended to check this place out by our hotel clerk. She told us it was where the locals went for good seafood. She was right!!! We were beyond happy with every aspect of this experience! Service was wonderful, atmosphere is quaint and homey, the price was incredibly reasonable …the food….omg the food!!! Crab cakes are quite possibly the most perfect classic representation you will ever get! Sweet potato wedges were such an amazing surprise, they were so good!!! My husband got a half dozen crabs and was in heaven. Can’t wait to make another trip over there to try again!!!!

Just a great local Seafood Shack!! We're from Ohio, and friends said we HAD to come here for some Maryland crabs and seafood. Well, absolutely so glad we did!! The soft crab chowder was really good, had some shell in it, but delicious none the less !! Soft shell crabs were really good too. And listen, the Crab Balls... You have to get some!! Make the trip, now I know why so many great comments from "locals" haha!!!

We happened upon this amazing seafood gem after visiting my sister in law in the hospital. Let’s just say we will be back! The atmosphere has definite southern Maryland charm, very clean and the service is excellent! All of us had different appetizers and entrees, and we were each exclaiming how delicious everything tasted. I enjoyed cream of crab soup, fresh local oysters on the half shell, delicious fried catfish with cajun seasoning, and a perfectly backed potato with butter and sour cream. Our server, Nicky, was beautiful inside and out, shared the restaurant’s history with us, answered a myriad of questions, was super polite, professional and personable. My husband and his sister, who are our family’s expert fried oyster chefs, remarked over and over about the quality and perfection
