Was really excited to finally come here but it was a let down. Food was good, but not spectacular. $70 for crabcake, soup, and two beers. Maybe just go for happy hour...

Angry Crab is the best. Be prepared for heat. Service could be better...

Do not sit in a booth if the person behind you keeps moving you feel the whole thing. This is ruining my birthday dinner right now. So fn pissed off right now
Tony XerriJune 17, 2013
This is the Red Lobster for rich bankers that don't know where to spend their lunch hour. Mediocre cocktails and our order was misplaced. The food was miles away from the prices. Not coming back here.

No veg options at all! I understand its a seafood restaurant but I was accompanying my bf & would also like to have something to eat. Even the salads have meat! Waiter suggested I get a few sidedishes

Hate to say it but the food was pretty bad and the service was worse. Should have know when we had no problem getting a day-of reservation.
