    Crab Leg's, Mussel's, Corn and Potatoes.
    Kim B.

    Delicious! Good portions and always served hot & fresh. The butter sauce is interesting. A little too spicy even the mild.

    The place is located in a plaza with easy in and easy out with plenty of parking. Overall there was plenty of seating and can accommodate large parties. The main dining was clean. The staff was pleasant however not ambitious. Menu is pretty straight forward with lots of options from wings to boils. The boil was good and flavorful. A couple pieces of corn and about 4 potatoes with your seafood choice.

    Dripping with sauce everywhere...and I loved it! We dined in and the manager was awesome to let us sit in an exclusive section away from the party of 20. She also replaced my drink that I spilled across the table as soon as I got it. Thank you! I got the shrimp and crab legs bag with the bomb sauce--garlic, lemon and Cajun mix. Comes with potatoes and corn and I added eggs. Listen! So good, seasoned very well but not salty. The meat was tender and easy to get out of the shells. I've had the crab hut many times, sorry to say but this is better in taste, texture and the atmosphere was a bonus! Will be back for sure when I'm ready for some seafood.

    My boyfriend and I tried Crafty Crab on a Tuesday night. When we arrived there wasn't a wait and we were seated immediately. The interior of the restaurant is very very nice. They have a good menu with a variety of options. It is expensive, but I expected that for seafood, and the prices are fair for what you get. I ordered a seafood boil with a pound of snow crab and a half pound of headless shrimp, garlic butter for the sauce. It came with potatoes and corn in it. My boyfriend did the catfish. The food was great. My boyfriend enjoyed his catfish very much. My food was excellent. All of the seafood was fresh and plentiful, and cooked to the perfect level of doneness (I find that many restaurants overcook shrimp and crab so that made me very happy). The potatoes and corn that were inside were so good in the sauce. The sauce itself was delicious, it had a deep flavor and the spices were balanced really well. I ordered mild spice and it was perfect for me. They give you gloves and a bib to wear and let me tell you, you're going to need them. They also leave a roll of paper towel on the table which you also definitely need. The waitress was very attentive and kept our drinks full and made sure we were happy with our food. I recommend it, and we will definitely return!

    I got the lobster poboy and sweet potato fries carry out. I paid $22 and i feel like there was barely any lobster in the sandwich, although the flavor was good. I enjoyed the sauce they put on it. The sweet potato fries were really good as well. I was halfway through my meal before i remembered to take a picture. I was still kind of hungry after eating this and it doesn't take too much to make me feel full.

    So happy this place finally opened. We have been looking for a comfortable place for our date nights. Everything was wonderful. Small seafood platter was so good the out cat actually nibbled on done leftovers. Great atmosphere very relaxing. We will be back for Monday lunch soon. Snow Crab Legs really goodHeadless Shrimp were a mess but so were the crayfish. Finger food at is best. Loved everything. It's great to be getting some great new places in Eastpointe.

    First impressions was roomy and clean, customer service was very good. Food came out, and a timely manner and hot and fresh very flavorful l. Definitely would recommend 4.5 only because bathroom need work and extra cleaning (walls,doors)

    This place was great. Great food and service. It's pricy but then again it's seafood.

I ordered the ribeye this time but have tried the filet, an chatobriegn a few times and both of those are delicious. My woman loved the scallops. The lobster cargo is amazing as well. They have a nice musician playing good music while there and the feel is an old-timey vibe which is really nice. Made me feel like the Godfather.

    Total 70's vintage. Dark, bricky, loud, cramped dining experience. This place has been here…read moreforever. PROS: Great 70's vibe. 70's menu. Excellent 70's style service too. Nice bread basket. Handmade table-side Caesar salad $17 for four servings. Good French onion soup, chops and lobster tail. The sour cream for the baked potato contained fresh cut chive. Delicious. CONS: Weird parking, seating cramped like sardines. Saturday evening dining room was LOUD! Could barely converse. Food is expensive: Tomahawk steak $90+. Ribeye $55+. New York Strip $50+. Most everything was ala carte. Disappointed that the Sander's hot fudge cream puff did not contain hot fudge anywhere near the taste and quality of the old Sanders recipe. Cream puff was stale too. A strong seafood smell permeated the entire restaurant. SUMMARY: Mr. Paul's Chophouse is a REAL restaurant for those special occasions. Total East side. Food is very good but not "great". Eat here for the old school vibe. Kudo's to the owners that keep it going.

After reading a…read morelot of the mixed reviews of places in St. Clair Shores, we opted to stop at Mike's for lunch figuring that at least we would have a great view. We were not disappointed at all! Here's what we noticed: - It was a beautiful sunny Fall day so we opted to sit outside. They were using an abbreviated Fall lunch menu. - My wife and I split both the Mike's perch meal and the Maurice salad. The perch was breaded with Panko crumbs, a little heavier than I've seen at places in the past, but it was still really tasty. The fries were seasoned well and the coleslaw was good but a little sweet. The Maurice salad was very good too. - Service was very good, although the server told me they didn't charge extra if you use a credit card and that was clearly inaccurate because it was stated on the bill that we received that the cash price was (~3%) less. - The atmosphere was great, the view wonderful, and the overall decor is totally crammed full of pictures and nautical paraphernalia...very quaint. - Prices are a little higher than some other places, but not surprising given the water front location. Bottom line: We would definitely go back, especially in summer.
