The Best Crab Cakes In The Atlantic City Area

Our Undisputed Winner is:

Bobby Chez

You can get it one of two ways from BobbyChez.com

Breaded and without the breading. I’ve had both for years. Both are great. I prefer with the breading.

Runner-Up — Chef Diane — Angeloni’s II Restaurant & Lounge

And, also one of my favorite crab cakes of all-time … the Chef Diane recipe, from Angeloni’s II Restaurant & Lounge.

They are formed perfectly, with no fillers. Taste and texture are fabulous.

You can still get these delicious broiled crab cakes at Angeloni’s.

Steve & Cookies — Margate, New Jersey

Everything that Cookie does is first class all the way.

They are delicious. Cookie also offers them in a fabulous crab cake sandwich alternative.

Either way, you can't go wrong. Cookie never skimps on the quality of all products and ingredients.

Dock’s Oyster House — Atlantic City, New Jersey

The Dougherty Family are synonymous with seafood for more than 100 years. You can't go wrong. These crab cakes feature high-quality ingredients and a whole lot of TLC.

They are very light and also satisfying. You can enjoy one that is served over a fresh piece of flounder. Big wow factor here.

The Knife & Fork Inn — Atlantic City, New Jersey

The Dougherty Family has made our ���Best Crab Cakes” list twice.

They make a perfectly formed jumbo lump crab cake, served with Red Pepper Coulis.

It is sheer perfection, taste, texture, and attention to detail is at the highest level of excellence.

The Crab Trap — Somers Point, New Jersey

These mini crab bites are absolutely fantastic. They are served as an appetizer, However, I often pair them with a bowl of the best crab bisque soup in New Jersey and it makes a perfect entrée.

You get 5 mini crab cakes with every order. The flavor is fantastic.

BONUS — Here Is A Special Crab Cake

This is my Mother, Shirley Freeman Hurley wonderful crab cakes.

The recipe is more than 70 years old.

The photo above, a look at my late Mother's crab cakes, as interpreted by my Sister Karen, who is a magnificent chef.

These are objectively delicious and so sentimental to me. They are not light. They are pan sautéed, hearty and bursting with flavor.
