Reviews
My friends and I have this restaurant in our rotation of girls night out. We recently visited and while the food didn’t change… it’s always good- especially fried shrimp, the service by RAYE was over the top excellent. Very professional and even though Raye’s peers were talking and laughing and snacking- Raye never lost focus of her customers. She may not be there our next go round but we are thankful we had to experience one of best demeanors.
The food was amazing as always. Me and two of my girlfriends were super excited to dine as we often come here. Today we had a waitress who was OUTSTANDING. She laughed with us, especially when i has to turn my light on the phone, she was patient with us because we were ordering everything and just a all around amazing waiter. Raye when we come back we are definitely going to request you. By then I might have my nose pierced(lol inside joke)
Thank you Raye for being AMAZING
Nice place close to us. Honestly, the food wasn't over the top, and this is an area known for typical seafood near a large body or east coast water lol. It wasn't bad by any means but just not great. Start with my muscles and clams. Went with the Green Muscles which were good but keep in mind you have to order at least a pound total of the seafood, so I did half n half with clams. The clams were where it quicky went downhill at least for me. Most of the clams were barely the size of little necks, and better than half we're sitting in the Butter/Old Bay sauce in the pan. Literally no taste to them after that bath. She had snow crabs, and 3 if the legs barely had anything to them.
Loved the atmosphere and service was quick and polite.
We will go back, just to try something else, and of course have a few cond ones.
First time visit. We arrived about 1:30 pm on Saturday of Mother's Day weekend. We enjoyed fried oysters and the shrimp and crab. Our server was very good except a crab cracker should have been provided to us a little sooner. Enjoyed our meal.
So good. I got the boom sauce on the side just to control the salt content. I love that you can get shrimp without the heads and nothing was overcooked or rubbery. Lola took care of me. Will be back
This was definitely a good seafood boil bag. Our waitress was very helpful since it was my first time. I got snow crab legs and shrimp which came with potatoes and corn with the medium garlic butter seasoning. I would add sausage next time. I also got hush puppies and onion rings.
Definitely try one of the boils. The bartender could use some help cuz the drinks weren’t that great but the food was great.
Not sure how I felt about this place. The food was pretty banging. Loads of seasoning in our packs. But the parking situation is a bit confusing. Not from here so had to download and then pay even though it’s free. Service was a bit slow and a bit overpriced. But overall not a bad spot
I have to say Tiffany made my day! I was having a crappie morning dealing with a car dealership. When I walked into Crafty crab, I instantly felt welcomed, and Tiffany just made it extra extra better. Her service is awesome beyond words. My …
