Seafood In The Buff Wheaton — Restaurant in Maryland

I grew up in the area and as a kid I always saw this place and was curious about it. Now as an adult I finally got to try it for the first time and I wasn't disappointed. When I got there it was empty so my order didn't take long at all! The staff was very nice and they keep the restaurant clean so I was happy to see that. I got the combo with the two pieces of fried fish the crab cake sandwich fried shrimp fried clams and fried scallops and it came with two sides. I chose fries and hush puppies. The food came out hot with a couple of sides of cocktail sauce and tarter sauce and the fries were seasoned nicely but not over seasoned. Each piece of seafood was decent sized and I got like 8-9 hush puppies so they definitely didn't skimp on the food. The white fish wasn't my favorite but that's only because white fish is something I have to be in the mood for and usually I prefer white fish to be blackened instead of fried. The crab cake that I got was like 50/50 crab and filler but it wasn't terrible all things considered. My favorites out of everything in the combo were the shrimp and scallops so next time I will most likely order those by themselves. My combo cost $28.99 before tax and I think their pricing is fair considering the amount and quality of the food they give you. This is NOT a gourmet seafood restaurant. This is definitely a hole in the wall so expect that going in but if you are in the mood for seafood I definitely recommend giving this place a try. If you are looking for delivery you can order with them through DoorDash. I will be back to try more things...

I hadn't been to Seafood on the Buff in a few years. It used to be an okay place, but now it is awful. I should have walked out when it took almost 7 minutes to get waited on when I was the only person at the counter. I finally got a person to wait on me and then he had someone else take over, who I might add overcharged me and couldn't speak English. Was finally charged the correct price. I ordered the fried oyster platter. In the past the oysters were fresh, these we not. I ordered potato salad. I to this moment have no idea what I received, there were potatoes in it, but it was God Awful. The old potato salad was to die for, if you ate what I was given you would die. The same with the cole slaw, the old cole slaw was wonderful, this was horrible. Was of money, BIG waste of money and I drove out of my way for this mess. AVOID this place and save your money. If I could give them a negative -2 stars that would be more in keeping with the service and food. They should pay you...

⭐️⭐️ Amazing Food & Kind-Hearted People ⭐️⭐️

When we lost our 18-month-old puppy, the people at Seafood in the Buff Wheaton went above and beyond to help us. One gentleman noticed our distress and kindly stopped to let us know that he had seen our little guy the day before. This brought us so much relief after nearly 48 hours with no leads. When we visited the restaurant, another gentleman took time to assist us, letting us post a flyer and even offering us water. Thanks to their kindness, we found our puppy later that day and couldn’t be more grateful.

This evening, we returned for a celebratory dinner, and the food was just as exceptional as the service. The crabs were meaty, tasty, and worth every penny. We will definitely be supporting this restaurant in the future—not only because of the great food and fair pricing but because the people here truly have hearts of gold. God bless these hardworking individuals!...
