Delawareans are fortunate to live so close to the Delaware Bay, Chesapeake Bay, and Atlantic Ocean, which means we’ve got prime access to some of the best seafood sources in the country. In the winter, though, most restaurants change up their menu and crabs, one of the most iconic foods of the First State, can be hard to find. That’s where Lestardo’s Crab House, in New Castle, truly shines – they’re home to the tastiest, biggest year-round crabs in Delaware.

Lestardo's is a hole-in-the-wall in New Castle that's known for having the most delicious year-round crabs in Delaware.
