Walking into The Blind Pelican feels like stepping into a coastal culinary dream—and the menu reads like a love letter to Southern seafood indulgence. I kicked things off with the Buffalo Shrimp, perfectly crisp with just the right spicy kick, followed by the rich, creamy Crab Dip—decadent and addictive. Gator Bites and Frog Legs? Bold, savory, and surprisingly tender—an adventure in every bite.

Salad lovers aren’t left behind. The Spinach Salad is fresh and vibrant, while the Caesar comes classic with a tangy punch. But the She Crab Soup? That’s where they flex their Southern roots—velvety, briny, and unforgettable.

Raw bar fans will swoon over the Peel & Eat Shrimp and the glistening Oysters, served by the half dozen. And for those with an appetite? The Snow Crab Legs—available in both 1/2 and full-pound options—are a sweet, juicy mess worth getting into.

Main entrées are where The Blind Pelican truly shines. The Maryland Crab Cakes are golden and packed with lump crab. Ted Williams Shrimp—lightly grilled, succulent—pairs wonderfully with their Lobster & Shrimp Cavatappi Pasta, a creamy dream with just enough seafood decadence. And don’t sleep on the Filet Mignon or the homey Shrimp & Grits—Southern comfort at its best.

Fried options bring the crunch: Shrimp, Scallops, Grouper, and Oysters, all golden-fried perfection. Sandwiches like the Lobster Roll and Shrimp Po Boy deliver rich, handheld satisfaction.

Sides range from creamy Mac & Cheese to those irresistible Sweet Potato Waffle Fries. Cap it all off with dessert—Cinnamon Bread Pudding and Triple Chocolate Cheesecake are standout favorites.

The Baked Oysters section is a gem, especially the Diablo and Buff n' Blue varieties. And for the little ones? A full kids’ menu ensures smiles all around.

The Blind Pelican doesn’t just serve food—it serves flavor-packed memories.
