LuvLe DevineApril 18, 2017The food is really good here I love the ribs and shrimp in garlic sauce. They are just about always running a deal on groupon so you can check them out.
Chris VitaleSeptember 27, 2015The best grits I've ever had in my life. Same with their amazing Bloody Mary's! Opens at 7am 7 days a week too! You can't beat the service either! Highly recommend. Highly.
Keisha BerrySeptember 24, 2014The crabcake is absolutely amazing! It's huge and the price is unbeatable! On Wednesday and Friday it is 10.50 and it comes with fries. Normal price is 13.95!
Sofi MoncayoSeptember 7, 2015I had the crab mac and cheese, hubby had crab cakes and steamed crabs. Absolutely amazing. Best service, wonderful atmosphere, great food, and super clean.
Erika McKenzieJune 8, 2015The one on the dock is open....the crabs had too much salt seasoning. The food was good and portions reasonable. They do add an gratuity in with the bill. All you can eat crabs are Mon-Thu only.
Christina MoshDecember 3, 2011Crab cakes were awesome and i would go back for them, but the other seafood not so much. Management straight up told me the seafood, except the fish, is frozen :(- J.D. GreenJuly 14, 2012Tried breakfast and it wasn't bad, nice quiet atmosphere. Home fries great and the pancakes too well done.
Great food and fun atmosphere. Our waitress, Doris, was maybe a little senile, but she was a darling.- Ange FraFebruary 14, 2013Crab cake specials are now Monday and Friday! ALL the seafood is fresh not frozen!
B PeezNovember 9, 2022I usually don’t leave bad reviews but this place wasn’t good at all. Crab dip was mostly mayo and cheese no crab could be spotted. I also got the fish and chips. Not fresh at all really fishy!!!
Totally revamped inside. Some of the same great staples plus new items. More upscale crab-shacky now.
Richard StringerApril 14, 2019TERRIBLE! They don't tell you until they bring the check, but they don't allow separate checks! The manager got in my face when I tried to talk to him. I had to pay $450 bill for entire party myself!
