Amazing service! Food is delicious and affordable!! Love how they have combos and cater to all customers!

My parents and I decided to go to Crabby Crabby. This is unique because they not only serve seafood but also Mexican food. I basically scrolled through the menu and they have Mexican items. They also do Taco Tuesdays. Haven't had seafood boil for a while and I love to revisit to consume them. Food is really good there especially sausages and crabs. I also had Cajun fries and they're really on point with the seasoning. Crab is really hard to cut especially with the tool to cut it since I'm not really familiar with how to use it. Quite pointy though which made me have to constantly strategize on how to cut it until my dad showed me how. We mainly came here for the seafood boil but perhaps, I should try one of their Mexican dishes as well as fried foods that come with fries. read more

I have to thank my food critic and friend RITA for recommending this place to me and treating me to a great lunch. Before we begin, this is place is not for non-crabby at heart"! Lol Nestled right off the DUMBARTON BRIDGE in Newark lies this great crab and fish casual restaurant. Mexican and Cajun specialties are highlighted. I must say I was pleasantly shocked. I had the Jumbo Coconut Prawns and they were excellent. You have to take a look at the wide array of seafood that this place has and what you get when you order the full meal, amazing. Looking forward to my next visit. Thank you Rita for the recommend and thank you Crabby Crabby for the excellent cooking and service. read more

I'm really disappointed with my experience here today. I placed a to-go order around 12 PM for a pound of shrimp, a super quesadilla for my husband, and tacos for my kids. I was told it would take about 15 minutes, which was totally fine. After about 20 minutes, I asked if I could add eggs to the order and was told my food was already coming out, so I said never mind. At 30 minutes, I checked again and was told it would be ready soon. Then after waiting 40 minutes, I finally asked again because I was confused about what was taking so long, and that's when I was told they didn't have cheese to complete the quesadilla. What upset me most was the lack of communication. I ordered 40 minutes earlier, someone could have told me much sooner instead of letting the rest of my food sit there getting cold. When I asked about it, the response was basically "Do you want a refund or something else?" with no apology or acknowledgment of the inconvenience. I ended up replacing the quesadilla with extra tacos, but after nearly 50 minutes of waiting, my shrimp and my kids' tacos were cold by the time we got them. I honestly started crying when they handed me the food( probably because I'm pregnant ) I had been looking forward to this meal all week, and the whole experience was just frustrating and disappointing. I've worked as a waitress for years, so I completely understand being busy and mistakes happening, but communication and a simple apology go a long way. That was really missing here today. read more

Finally decided to try this spot and was impressed. The service was quick and staff were attentive to our needs. The quality of the seafood is also good- additional $2 for fresh crawfish but I didn't mind. We got the crabby crabby medium and it was the perfect spice. This isn't your typical seafood boil spot, she does have that Latin taste to it, and it was delicious. We came right before the dinner rush and the inside of the restaurant was very clean. I forgot to take a before pic, but here's the after! read more

Great food. I ordered garlic butter sauce and it was delicious even with no heat. The portions are very good and price wise it is very fair. . I came around lunchtime and it was very busy so the wait was long. I had to go to the counter to get to go bags , and they never gave me my water. The place is well kept and the tables were arranged for easy access. The restroom was clean and well stocked. It is much better compared to the ones in San Francisco. I will be back soo read more

Made a reservation for a saturday night but walk in would have been fine - there were customers for sure but no wait at all. The service was great, they came by to check in, took follow up orders as well. The combo itself did take a hot second to come out, but it was piping hot when it did. My favorite was the shrimp, followed by crawfish, followed by lobster tail. The lobster was not tender. Garlic fries came out hot also, with LOTS of garlic on top (note: garlic not that cooked, so it had a bite, which I personally liked, but was unexpected). Overall the ambiance was good. They had many TVs up for sports showings. I love the form factor of seafood boil where you can get a little messy with it. read more

10/10 find! I didn't realize Crabby Crabby was more than just a seafood boil spot, but was surprised to find out they also offer Mexican food. Pretty unique combo. We came in around 7:30 pm and it wasn't packed at all. We were seated right away and had our order taken quickly. We ordered 2 lb head-on shrimp with sausages, 1 lb crawfish with potatoes, and a side of Cajun fries. For both the shrimp and crawfish, we chose the Crabby Crabby mix (original Cajun, lemon pepper, and garlic butter) with mild spice. Everything tasted SO good. The sauce was not overly buttery or oily and tasted even better with the lemon juice. The Cajun fries were perfectly crunchy and even better when dipped in the Crabby Crabby sauce. Would recommend to friends and definitely saved in my collections as a go-to seafood boil spot! read more

First time coming to this place and will definitely be coming back! We planned our arrival before the stated busy period on their Yelp place and definitely beat the dinner rush. We were quickly helped and started our meal shortly after. Kiddos enjoyed their picks and I was surprised when the oldest ventured and tried many new things. Left with a long list of things we want to try and can't wait to tell friends about it. Very cute decor and clean and efficient service. Good for large groups or a solo date. read more

The biggest thing for me is the service and our server is super nice and very informative. He was telling us things we didn't even know about, like I did not know they had agua frescas, i got cucumber lime btw, I also ordered 2 lbs of FRESH crawfish because I love crawfish. You should definitely come try it out, It won't disappoint. There's also a really big shark on the ceiling and I love sharks so that's always awesome to see. read more

First time being at crabby crabby The staff was welcoming. Sat me down quick took my drink order. Brought drink order fast. The michelada was very tasty was not too salty gray flavor and not too think of the tomato juice. We ordered. Half crab and half shrimp. Because it was only two of us. We tried all three sauces together non spicy for my daughter. I loved the flavor. The only thing was it was too oily. Not sure if that is a normal thing in this type of foods. I haven't been to these type of restaurant for a while. Don't remember if need too much oils on them. Garlic noodles was my Favorite. Anything with garlic I loved. Good flavor and can taste the garlic read more

Louisiana boil and Mexican food is quite a combination but makes Crabby Crabby a hit lunch spot for those in the area or perhaps a feast of a dinner for those looking to celebrate by dining and drinking with the local sports game playing. Situated in a bustling local shopping center equipped with a grocery store, gym, gas station and other eateries as well as neighboring two other fully serviceable shopping centers, Crabby Crabby is crowded out yet stays relevant as the only seafood boil within a few mile radius. Given its proximity to the highway and bridge entrance/exit, this location is prime for commuters and can get a bit hectic during rush hour. But if you're coming off for a lunch break, you're in for a treat with their lunch special combos - one whole pound of seafood with the classic fixings of corn, sausage, and potatoes for less than $15! As you venture into the spacious parking lot and park in the seldomly taken spots in front of the shop, you'll encounter their wall of signs promoting their specials and deals. Taco Tuesdays are available here (2 bucks a taco), 49er game days are also a time to get BOGO bottle beers, and happy hour (5-7 pm) means half price draft beers. Whatever day and time you decide to come in, you can take advantage of the deal and fill up at a fraction of the normal price. The place is pretty spacious and has a few booths and large tables for medium to large parties. It's not a proper boil without the village (but of course it's perfectly fine to come as a village of one - you just better have the stomach to eat all that food)! As we were seated, the staff asked us for drink orders and handed out menus for us to peruse. The menu is pretty extensive as it encompasses a variety of seafood sold at market price, fried appetizers to soak up alcohol and for guilty indulgences, delicious hot entrees to accompany the shellfish and crustaceans, and Mexican cuisine classics. We came in specifically for their lunch special which itself has a few options allowing you to mix and match a half pound of shrimp with other seafood like mussels, scallops, crawfish or clams as well as other staples like garlic noodles and fries. As a party of three, we got three different lunch combos to get a taste of their mollusks. For each boil, you'll have the option to select your mix of spices/flavors and your level of heat/spice. For flavors, you'll have the option among Cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper or a mix of all three, which they've coined the "Crabby Crabby" mix. As a first timer, go with their signature mix! And as for spice level, you'll be able to go non-spicy, mild, medium, or hot. As heat novices, we opted for the mild and it was the perfect level for us. Upon placing our order, the staff passed out some limes and containers of salt and black pepper to be used to supplement our seafood catch. In addition, they handed out a bib and a pair of gloves per person. It was a fun experience in itself to don the getup, but it definitely was appreciated as we dove into the food with no remorse, completely protected from the splatter of sauces everywhere. It took just a bit of time for the boils to come out in plastic bags, smothered in the seasoning and spices. The seafood was cooked well and the flavors were spread out evenly. The over one pound bags were certainly loaded up and after consuming it all, we were certainly full to the brim. If you do end up needing to take the leftovers to go, they'll help you bag it up. Overall, Crabby Crabby is your local seafood boil offering delicious food at a great value nearly everyday of the week and almost all hours of the day. Its variety of catch is abundant and will certainly satisfy any craving but for those looking for something more terrestrial, they have tacos and burritos filled with some of your favorite beef, pork or chicken fillings. The setting is super casual (you'll appreciate the decorations) so it's likely not a place to host any formal gathering but for any party where it's customary to eat with your hands (finger licking and all), this is the place to be! read more

My husband and I took my Mom here for Mother's Day. There was no wait because we had a reservation, but there were a lot of people outside waiting for a table, so if you want to come here, I highly recommend a reservation. The restaurant was fairly large, so it seemed like a good place for families and for smaller gatherings, like my table of 3. The servers were nice, but I will say we were barely checked up on and our drinks were never refilled. The servers were pretty busy, so it was difficult to get their attention when something was needed. The food was good, I especially liked the green mussels, but it took 40 minutes to get our food, and I was about ready to leave if it took a minute more. So even though the food was good, I don't think it was worth the wait. I could find another crab boil spot just as good with a shorter wait. Hoping it was just a long wait because it was Mother's Day. read more

Hidden gem alert: $12.99 seafood boils that satisfy. Popped in for a Wednesday girls' lunch and lucked out--weekday combos for just $12.99. We tried Combo 5 (shrimp + scallops, Cajun, medium), Combo 7 (head-on shrimp + clams, Lemon Pepper, mild), and Combo 8 (head-on shrimp + garlic noodles, Crabby Crabby mix, mild). The portions? Surprisingly generous. Each came with corn, potatoes, and fresh, flavorful seafood. Garlic noodles leaned soft and udon-like--still hit the spot. Crabby Crabby was the flavor MVP. Lemon Pepper didn't quite shine, but nothing disappointed. If you're after a seafood boil without the big bill, this lunch deal is a no-brainer. Go hungry. Leave happy. read more

Traditional Mexican flavors meet Cajun Cuisine! This Mexican Cajun Seafood Boil spot is a must-try and one of our favorites for seafood boil! Out of all the seafood boil places we've tried, this fusion of flavors is one of our favorites. While the spice levels are more mild, the flavors and seasonings are SO GOOD. So good, some of the people we were with like this place better than boiling crab! What we ordered: Molcajete Special (3 lbs. of seafood) includes: * Head-on Shrimp * Crawfish * Green Mussels * Black Mussels * Clams * (2) Corn on the Cob * (3) Red Potatoes * (4) Sausage pieces * (2) Aguas Frescas or Sodas * Sweet Potato Fries drizzled w/ condensed milk - Surprisingly this was really good! Service is great and the inside has a fun beach shack vibe to it complete with a large shark hanging on the ceiling lol. read more

Went here with my family over the weekend and luckily arrived right before the rush. We ordered Combo Deal #3, which came with a whole Dungeness crab, clams, mussels, shrimp, corn and sausages. We also added an order of hardboiled eggs (comes with 3). On the side, we tried the garlic noodles and fried oysters w/ sweet potato fries. Overall, everything was really flavorful and well-cooked - we're big seafood boil fans, so we can tell when it's done right. I also appreciated how clean they keep the place, which makes the dining experience that much better. We really enjoyed our lunch here and will definitely be coming back! read more

When my daughter comes to visit from NYC, we always take her to wherever and whatever restaurants that she's craving for. She loves Cajun seafood, so I looked for a new one to take her. Last time we went to Cajun Bistro 7 (not again) and Cajun Crack'n (good), this time we tried Crabby Crabby in Newark. This one took the place of a sushi restaurant that we came years ago (pier 98?). It's in a big shopping center so there are plenty of parkings. The place is bright and clean, one thing we noticed is plenty of TV along the walls with football playing on Sunday night (49'er). My daughter and my wife wanted the combo #2, but since my daughter also wanted the garlic noodles, the nice pleasant, attentive server with a digital pad recommended combo #3 that comes with garlic noodles, better deal so we took it. For my son, fried catfish and cajun fries, and me, always Gumbo. For the prices, this restaurant has the best values for what we get over all restaurants we've been to. The service is excellent, pleasant, quick and attentive. The foods are amazingly tastier over all the others. The house original sauce is really good although medium spicy is too hot for me, but my wife and daughter like it even she's eating and drinking water at the same time with running nose, LOL. That $115 combo had plenty of seafoods for 4 but too much for 2. My son gobbles the catfish and fries in a flash, it's quite crispy and tasty. My Gumbo is watery but quite delicious, my wife had a taste and she drinks all the soup The cajun fries are crispy and excellent, the garlic noodles is flavorful and cooked just right unlike Cajun Bistro 7 soggy one. The kids need to go to Dublin for an Escape Room so we didn't have enough time to finish all the foods, we took them home for later. We're glad we found this place, unless there's any other cajun place to try better, we'll be back. read more

My wife just wanted a whole steamed lobster for Mother's day. Hard to find options around here, Red Lobster is gone, didn't want to try Ray's crab shack, Market Broiler doesn't sell whole lobster, decided to buy out instead of doing it at home. So, went with this place for first time and bill was over $100 for whole lobster, gumbo, garlic fries, and garlic bread. Granted they were slammed because it was mother's day. All the employees were hustling and doing their best. However, foodwise, everything was sad. We'll never be coming back. Lobster: ordered non-spicy and butter/garlic on the side. The whole lobster was in a bag full of cajun spice sauce. No butter/garlic on the side as the website states. Had to rinse the whole thing to get rid of most of the unwanted spice broth. Claws were ok, tail was good flavor just very small. Paying almost 3x for a full lobster vs. just the tail now seemed like a mistake. And in the future, advertice that you drench everything in cajun goo sauce please. Gumbo: Not bad, not memorable, a few large pieces of shrimp, hard to find the sausage but it was there, not spicy. Really the only thing it had going for is was not being overly salty. Garlic Fries: Fries were ok, giant vat of chopped garlic on the side, but what ruined them was the cajun spice sprinkled all over the fries. We ordered garlic fries, not cajun fries. They either screwed it up or this is what they think garlic fries are, which they were not. Garlic Bread: Not really bread so much as smaller versions of Olive Garden bread sticks. Now I see why they were only $3. Edible but boring, missing garlic and since they were round and smooth it was impossible to use some of the chopped garlic from the fries to make them better. This is not a seafood restuarant as much as a southern bayou/cajun place. At least Backyard Bayou has a suitable name. This place was a complete and utter disappointment and extremely overpriced. I would not recommend them to anyone. Definitely there's a market opportunity in this town for good seafood that no one is filling. PS I'm changing my review to 2 stars from 1 but only for the awesome staff and hustle. Food I was not impressed with. My expectation was just different than what was given. Still, that lobster was totally not worth $60. read more

Wow, what an amazing menu! Took the teen for his 15th bday and he loves seafood boil. We chose the seafood package #3 ($115) for our family of four. Service was great and the flavor combo of 3 sauces (crabby sauce) was so yummy, even at mild. read more

We came on a very quiet Thursday and practically had the entire restaurant to ourselves. This was our first time and weren't sure what to expect. Wow. Wow. So flavorful! We ordered the combo #2 which came with the following: 1 lb King Crab Legs, 1lb Head On Shrimp, 1lb Crawfish Or Clams. Pick 3 Free Items: 1 Corn Or 2 Potatoes Or 4 Pc of Sausages. We decided to splurge on the easy peel shrimp (totally worth it!) and, of course, you can't do a seafood boil without crawfish. We went for the "Crabby Crabby" flavor, which blends all three of their signature flavors, original Cajun, lemon pepper, and garlic butter. It was amazing! Everything was perfectly coated in that mouthwatering sauce, bursting with flavor. Oh and of course we had to get an order of garlic noodles, yum.. My only suggestion would be to change the music. The EDM was an unusual choice for the type of cuisine. read more

I came here on a whim and left already planning my next visit. The seafood boils are absolutely fire--seasoned perfectly, super fresh, and generously portioned. It's that perfect mix of finger-lickin' good and bring extra napkins messy. So worth it. The vibe inside is fun, casual, and welcoming--perfect for a date night or a chill hang with friends. They've got great beer and wine selections, and the prices? Shockingly reasonable for how much you get. Love a place that gives you quality and value. I've only had the seafood boils so far (can't stop ordering them tbh), but next time I'm eyeing the tacos or maybe even a burrito--Mexican fusion meets seafood? Say less. Bonus points for the staff--they're attentive and on top of everything without being overbearing. And there's plenty of parking, which always seals the deal for me. read more

Party of 5 for dinner. Arrived at 4:45 and was greeted promptly and sat. Ordered a variety of things which were all good but I have had better. Lobster tail was a little over cooked. Shrimp were small compared to what we are used to go at other seafood boil restaurants. The flavors choices are good. Garlic noodles and gumbo were really good and I would go back for these. My brother ordered this secret menu bowl thing and it was $150 and I don't think it was worth it. read more

$12.99 for a pound of seafood?! Say less, I'm there. Came into Crabby Crabby for lunch after hearing about their amazing happy hour deals (11:30AM-3PM) and was seated immediately upon arrival. I ordered the happy hour Combo #3 (1/2lb head-on shrimp & 1/2lb crawfish) with an additional 1/2lb of king crab legs. Just a note - they do charge an additional $2 when requesting half pounds! The combos come with 2 pieces of corn, 2 potatoes, and 4 slices of smoked sausage. Whenever I come to seafood boil places, I always struggle deciding what to get (cause I love all seafood)... with prices & combos like this, I can get a little bit of everything, which makes me so happy!! I got everything with their specialty Crabby Crabby sauce at a medium spice level. At $12.99/lb I was kind of expecting the quality of the seafood to be lower, but I was so impressed with the freshness of the shrimp & the crawfish! None of them were mushy or overcooked, and the heads were delightfully sweet, not overly bitter or fishy! A 1/2lb of king crab gets you 1 leg, but my god was it worth it. Not overcooked, and had the perfect bounce you'd expect from king crab - all of the meat came out of the shells fairly easily as well! The sauce was the perfect compliment to all the seafood - spicy, savory, slightly sweet, and VERY garlicky (I can still taste the residual garlic in my mouth when writing this review)! I was expecting to be able to bring home leftovers, but by the time I came to, everything in the bag had been devoured, I guess I couldn't stop myself lol. The servers were also extremely attentive & friendly during my meal, constantly checking in to see if I needed anything. Eventually I think they could tell I was really busy enjoying my meal and left me to my own devices, which I was honestly very grateful for! Will definitely be back and spreading the word about this place! I heard they have great Taco Tuesday deals too, so I will be back to check that out :) read more

I finally decided to check out Crabby Crabby after passing by it nearly every day and seeing it blow up on TikTok lately definitely piqued my curiosity. Located in a busy shopping center with plenty of parking, it was easy to get in and seated. We were greeted by Sebastian, who also ended up being our server for the evening. Super friendly and helpful--when I mentioned it was my first time, he was more than happy to walk me through his top recommendations (even though I had already done my usual menu research ). I always appreciate hearing the inside scoop from the staff. We went big with our order: Combo Deal #2, which includes 1LB King Crab, 1LB Crawfish, and 1LB Shrimp (no heads, easy to peel), along with corn and sausage. We opted for their signature Crabby Crabby sauce--a flavorful blend that was mild but packed with taste. We also added fried catfish, garlic noodles, and Cajun fries. Here's the breakdown: King Crab: Fresh, meaty, and totally worth it. Shrimp: Cooked just right--easy to peel and delicious. Crawfish: Some pieces were great, others a bit off--but not a deal-breaker. Sausage: Meh, could've skipped this. Garlic noodles: Absolutely top-tier. Rich, garlicky, and addicting. Fried catfish: Hot, crispy, and flavorful with a moist interior. Cajun fries: Great texture and seasoning. Corn: Simple but sweet and a great sidekick to the seafood. The total came to about $130, which felt reasonable for the amount and quality of food we got. The interior gave off fun beach-aquarium vibes, complete with a big shark hanging from the ceiling--definitely a cool touch. Shoutout to Sebastian for being super attentive and checking in throughout the meal. Service like that always adds to the experience. All in all, Crabby Crabby lived up to the hype. I'd come back just for the garlic noodles alone. read more

How did it take me so long to try this?! Someone advertised Taco Tuesday on IG so I thought I'd give it a try. It's the cheapest dinner I've had out in....well, ever. They offer carne asada, al pastor, and pollo asado for $1.99. There are other meat options at regular price. The tacos were overloaded with the most flavorful meat. On a separate visit I tried the lobster with crabby mix, mild and easy peel shrimp with Cajun, medium. Both offer so much flavor and the perfect punch of Cajun seasoning. Both come in plastic bags. Each order comes with bibs, lemons, and salt and pepper. Gloves are available on request. Their garlic noodles are fire and the claim chowder soup is amazing. The sausage is a tad spicy. Potatoes and corn are cooked perfectly. They have beer, wine, agua frescas, and Pepsi products. The atmosphere is loud with music playing throughout. There are multiple TVs playing various sports. The restaurant is large with plenty of room for groups. Parking is a large shared lot. Staff is super friendly and attentive. Tap to pay is available. read more

I gave it 4 stars, but if we're being real--it's more of a solid 3.5 for me. The inside is cute with a fun fisherman vibe, and there's a giant shark hanging from the ceiling that'll definitely keep the kids entertained (and maybe make adults do a double take too). The service was friendly and checked in often, which was great because they did forget a couple of things--but hey, at least they were around to fix it quickly. Food-wise, it was better than my first visit! We got the weekend specials that come with 1lb of Dungeness crab, head-on shrimp (I paid a little extra for easy peel because I like my seafood without a wrestling match), and a choice of clams or green mussels. The mussels were massive and meaty, and the clams were honestly my favorite. The kiddo got chicken tenders and lemon pepper fries--the fries weren't bad! We also grabbed a super burrito to-go, which was just okay. Not bad, not memorable. Now the real MVP: that Crabby Crabby sauce. Super flavorful, and they hook you up with plenty of lemons and protective gear so you can go full beast mode without ruining your clothes. We also shared some garlic noodles--flavor was on point, but the noodles were a little soggy. Not a dealbreaker though. Overall, it's a fun spot, the portions are generous, the price is fair, and the staff is genuinely nice. I'd definitely go back, just keeping my expectations somewhere between "good" and "almost great." read more

I really liked Crabby Crabby. They are my current favorite shrimp boil spot!

3.5 stars but I rounded up. This restaurant is very clean and the service was great (given it was empty on a Tuesday lunch). I went with my family and we order almost $200 worth of seafood so we were able to try quite a few varieties of seafood. Mussels, clams, shrimp, crawfish and crab. While we enjoyed the sauce it did get a bit too salty after. I upgraded my crawfish to fresh vs frozen for a few dollars more but a lot of my crawfish was soft (ie not fresh) and small for being in season right now. I suppose I should've tried some of the frozen one? read more

I will never return to this establishment again, thanks to the MANAGER on Feb. 6th Friday night @5:30pm We were celebrating my mother-in-laws 71st birthday with a party of 15 at 7pm. My sister-in-law knows that EVERYONE is usually late so she sent out reservations with a 6pm reservation time anticipating everyone arrival at around 7pm or so. However my mother-in-law and my mother are extremely prompt have been all their lives, so therefore we showed up to the restaurant around 5:30pm. My mother-in-law, her husband, my mother, myself and my husband ALL road together. Therefore we didn't discover the REAL reservation time until arriving and checking in for the table. So with time to spare we asked for the 5 of us to be seated to order apps and maybe a few small bites before the rest of the parties arrival and we would close out and begin a new tab. This is where the problems began. The manager told us because we were a party of 15 originally that he would charge us gratuity for the party of 5 as well as gratuity for the party of 15 once we all arrived. We tried to explain to him that we were hungry and just wanted to sit the 5 of us NOW, order and then close the tab before the original reservation. He then repeated he would HAVE to charge us gratuity twice because of our original size party and original reservation. I have been working in the restaurant/hospitality industry for over 20 years and I didn't understand why he thought this was proper customer service. We went back and forth with him trying to get him to understand that we didn't mind being charged gratuity for our party of 15 at 7pm, but if we're ONLY 5 at this moment then how could he think that was correct and proper to then charge us gratuity at this time. With no success or solution we decided to cancel the entire reservation, and it was not until we asked him to cancel our reservation that he suddenly had a change of heart and was NOW willing to seat us and not charge us gratuity twice. However at this point we were no longer interested and just felt like this restaurant did not deserve our MONEY based on their initial service from the MANAGER himself. We left politely and enjoyed or dinner elsewhere. THEY NEED A LESSON ON CUSTOMER SERVICE STARTING WITH THE MANAGER. WILL NEVER RETURN BACK! read more

We LOVE crabby crabby and have been coming for years, they used to not be so crowded and every time we came we had an odd fear they would be permanently closed. They changed owners a couple years ago and now have an interesting blend of traditional Cajun broil and Mexican food. The interior was also redone into more of a broil theme and there are plenty of TVs to watch the game. You still get to dump the bag on the table and make a big mess and every orders comes with a bib and gloves. The thing I love is they are ultra ultra consistent, the broils are always made to order so your seafood is freshly prepared. There are other Cajun broils where the crawfish or shrimp are cooked to mush from sitting in a giant pot a long time. Fried catfish and fries: We always get this and our little hack is not getting potatoes with our seafood and using dipping the french fries in the cajun sauce instead. The fish comes super super hot so be careful, we break it in half to let them cool down faster. Just writing this making me hungry for them. Shrimp + Snow Crab with Corn and Sausage: We'll get this medium or mild depending on our mood, it's always satisfying and hits the spot. If they forget utensils for the crab you can ask for scissors and a crab shell cracker, if you are advanced you can use parts of the crab to pick out meats from other parts. They have a rare taco here made of beef intestine I haven't seen anywhere else, these are prepared well and tender and look great with the distinct mini rings from slicing the intestines. They have combos and specials that save $$$ so you can check the placard near the door or the posters on the outside window. They also do takeout if you want to get the super spicy version and sweat privately at home. read more

The food was actually really good and everyone enjoyed what they ordered. The only issue was that they completely forgot my mom's food, so the rest of us were basically done eating by the time hers came out about 15 minutes later. All they offered for the inconvenience was a free drink. What made it more frustrating is that they automatically add a 15% service charge and say it's for more attentive service, but we honestly experienced the opposite. Good food, but the service definitely needs improvement. In the end after I made the point he gave us her food on the house but I just would have rather had everything come out good the first time. Probably will not be coming back read more
