    When I tell you their crabs are so delicious and fresh!! I absolutely love this place, I haven't came across a seafood place that has better deals on crabs yet! The owner and the workers are always so kind and pleasant to me... I also love how I can call and place an order for my crabs and when I get there they are all ready and packed most places don't do call and pick up, it's always first come first served.. I travel from southwest Philly to get crabs.. I highly recommend

    I drove from Jersey to get their crabs. Such good service, food is amazing and the establishment is very clean. I can’t speak enough of how friendly they are.. I’ve been a repeat customer for the last three years.. Call ahead and they’ll have it ready the time you day you’re coming.. Buy two dozen get on free. The crabs were so meaty, cooked in beer and very delicious.

    Stopped in last week for the first time. Staff was extremely friendly. I love great customer service. Crabs were amazing I got them cooked in beer ( chef kisses) they even gave me a few extra crabs in bag. I’ll definitely be back.

    Okay, considering Chester seafood spots are extremely limited I'll be generous & give Kim's 3 stars. Service is okay. There are no menus to order from. This was my 3rd time eating here & again I'm not impressed. My food was over priced as is everything in the store. I'm attaching some pics of my last purchase looks are deceiving; there was a large amount of margine NOT butter in the bottom of the platter.. There was no flavor to the crabs or shrimp. These pics & review is from my experience 2 days ago & i still haven't finished the platter (see before & after pics) had this been a platter from anywhere else it wouldn't have survived an hour lol. Buy at your own risk!

    Overall, it is a decent seafood restaurant. Prices and portions are really good. However, options may be limited compared to other seafood places (like tartar sauce, hush puppies, etc.), but that might not be their focus, as they do offer platters.

    Kim’s is my neighborhood seafood spot that I always get my fresh whitting fish. The sauté crabs are delicious . I also had the steamed salmon patter. It was a bit salty for my taste but it was a lot! The salmon is fresh and the piece was huge. The owner had some good music on and me and my mom was jamming in there. Very cool friendly business owner. He even gave us a few free crabs. I would definitely go back.
