If I can give this place more than five stars I would. Firstly, the owner attended to us himself. He was an excellent host and extremely friendly for that matter. Everyone loved him at Crabby's, and honestly he himself alone made the experience excellent. The food was great, especially for the price. I got the rib eye steak with garlic shrimp and it was all cooked just the way I like it. Also, the lime margarita was HUGE for the price and tasted fabulous. Also, make sure to get the oysters (crabby style)!!! You will not regret it. To top it all off, the music was sooo good. I had a lot of fun there with the owner and the music. Honestly, if I lived here, I feel as if I would go to Crabby's at least once a week. Thank you to the generous staff for the amazing food!

I truly felt the warm welcome as soon as I stepped in the door. The food was really tasty. I almost always have leftovers but everything was so tasty that the idea of reheating felt wrong, so I ate it all. 😋 ☺ Aside from the price differences on the menu, it was a great experience! I will definitely be back again 😃😉

This establishment or business whatever you call it is handles things so unprofessional. The supposed called owner drop a chip platter all over my clothes and personal belongings. Then tried to blame my wife but everyone clearly saw she did it. Once we called her out she wanted to cover our tab and this that. Didn’t want to replace my items she damaged and to top it off she tried to lie in the beginning. As a business you should want to run a honest business and not lie. Top it off I ate a foul tasting oyster I even spitted it out. Food -10 out of 10 , service -10 out of 10. Definitely won’t be coming back here ever again. I don’t like giving bad reviews because I’m a business owner myself but this is not okay. Just some of the grilled garlic fillet and not impressed at all. Fish tastes super fishy not in a good way, rubbery, and not cooked fully.

Everything we ordered was delicious! Especially the shrimp. I asked if they can make me shrimp with sausage and potatoes and they had no problem. Came out delicious! I’ll be coming back here more often!

The service was excellent. They are very attentive and care about your food experience. The chef went above and beyond. He came out to greet me and asked how I would like to eat my salmon. Not many places do this. And that little extra touch is key. The flavors were magical and couldn't be more pleased with their service. The chocolate cake was bomb. I'll definitely be back and definitely recommending to friends and family.

We orderd 1lb of shrimp boil only one corn also order 1/2 they said they didn't have enough corn for the half order dont didn't make sense. Asked waitress for surgery for my ice tea never brought it. And was very pushy never going back also don't recommend at all.

I wish I could give this place a 3.5 to 3.9 on the star chart. And i say this with a positive view. We came to this location to enjoy a quick bite during a tight 1-hour lunch frame. The list of menu items was many. Possibly, one would say more than needed, but bravo! Lots to choose from. The drink list was great, mimosas veer cocktails, I was delighted. The atmosphere was delightful. Cozy warm, simple, and inviting. The food was all right, we didn't order anything big, just a fish taco. 4 drinks, one taco a delicious plate of guacamole and chips, the bill was 30$. Not bad for a quick lunch and good food and an interactive host. Missing? It's a small mom and pop location. It's friendly and quiant. As I said great for a quick lunch and something simple.
