Which restaurants have them? Serving them fresh at good prices?

If I need to pick up some at Earp's and fry em myself I will. Been there lately?

A friend and I went to Crooks last Friday and I had the soft shell crabs. Served with carrot slaw, red cabbage slaw, & baked grits - the crabs were moist and delicious. Fantastic!

I was at Earp's the other day - Pretty sure he had them. (But it is late, so sleepiness has the recollection a bit fuzzy) The place was a zoo with holiday weekend preparations. They had a sign saying they will be closed on Mon.

Crooks Corner in Chapel Hill has them now - they do a great job with soft shell crabs. Yum.

I had Crook's soft-shell crabs last week. They were phenomenal.

Elaines is also serving them, I heard, as an appetizer.

I had them at Crook's last week and agree w/ Jeanne, yum.
$24 w/ 2 slaws and baked cheese grits.

A friend had them at Elaines and said they were tasty there too.
