What People Are Saying…

Was a Conrad’s fan but decided to give dons a chance because too often my jumbo crabs would be missing claws(my fav part!) One time it was 7 claws. Anyway, this doesn’t happen at Don’s and the crabs are huge, heavy and delicious!

I bought 2 dozen large female and a dozen large male, the crabs were excellent and the size were spot on, perfectly season. Definitely worth the drive from Frederick, will be back again.
