We're out-of-towners and have had numerous opportunities to try crab cakes, as well as many other related dishes. We were very pleased to taste their crab soup and found it unbelievable with its giant lumps of crab in it. The picture shown reflects just that. Additionally, their crab cakes were beyond description. I made sure to tear my crab cake apart to see just how much filler would be hidden in it, and as you can see from the attached pics, very little to none. Again, the 🦀 chunks were awesome 👌. We highly recommend UC Uptown Eats for both locals and tourists. Also, try many of their other offerings on their menue. We loved meeting the owners who are always on-site to greet you. #Crab #Soup #Cakes #Chunks #Food

The best crab cake I’ve ever had! You can’t miss this place if you’re in the area. The JJ sandwich is everything that you could ever want and more in a sandwich. We also enjoyed the crab chowder and a peanut butter bomb for dessert. Everything was incredibly delicious. I’ll be thinking about this meal for a while!

This is a great little local spot with some of the best crab cakes I’ve had in a long time. They’re full of real crab meat, nicely seasoned, and cooked just right — crispy on the outside and tender inside. You can tell they care about the quality of the food.
The staff is friendly and welcoming, which really adds to the experience. It’s a small place with a comfortable, relaxed vibe. If you’re in the area and enjoy crab cakes, this place is definitely worth a try.
