    King Crab Special
    Kiana G.

    I don't ever usually order King Crab Legs but I figured I'd give it a try since I seen they had a "special". I legit received 1 leg and for 43.99 that's very expensive for just 1 leg. I was expecting at least 3. And the website did not specify how much you would be getting so that's a little misleading to me. I also ordered the crab combo special, it was decent. For both specials we did the house blend and spicy. It was seasoned well but the portioning was disappointing.

    I sat a the bar for a quick bite to eat, the music playing was good. I swore I wouldn't come back after I haven't seen the previous bartender. Today, was not bad the drinks were good as well as the food.

    Receipt !

    Update they had roaches and still blamed me! Mind you I already got my money back! But they literally admitted their establishment had roaches but somehow this particular roach did not come from them? who ever runs this place is a joke!

    Food was good considering it was an hour before closing. Snow crab 10/10. Wings 10/10 even though they forgot my honey. Shrimp 7/10. Sweet potato fries 5/10 better with BBQ sauce . The DJ played until the very last minute of closing which I enjoyed.

    I been to this restaurant before but, this is my 1st review. I was here for Line Dance class to meet up with a few friends. I was sitting at the bar and waited to be serviced as it was 1 maybe 2 bartenders that were working. I was finally able to place my order. The food for some reason took so long to come out. The other bartender was cleaning up around the bar area and attempted to throw a glass bottle into the trash however, it hit the rim of trash can and glass was flying everywhere. Luckily, it did not hit us at the bar but, that was totally unacceptable. Everyone at the bar area shouted that almost hit us with disbelief. I exited the restaurant shortly after.

    You can see the moisture on the top, the soggy onion rings, and no parchment paper or anything to protect the food.

    I've been going to this Crafty Crab since it opened. I've never had a complaint. Tonight I ordered two Shrimp boxes, one with Fries, the other with Onion Rings. My treat. A Girlfriend picked it up. She started eating her food in the car bcuz she had to bring mine to me. She said my fries were soggy, and the shrimp were just okay. Instantly, I got upset bcuz I treated you, and now you're talking about the food? I felt that way until I got mine. Once she dropped it off, I looked at the plastic container with no ventilation, my food was damp from the condensation, Onion Rings soggy, and the shrimp that were normally crispy were slighted, not as crispy as they usually are. Normally, I get my food in a card board box, with holes and parchment paper to absorb some of the grease. I called to speak to a Manager and told her of my concern, and she asked me to bring the food back up there. I asked if she was serious. It was raining "cats and dogs" which was why I treated my friend and had her pick it up. I was speaking to a " "Charney" who told me that they had recently switched to the plastic boxes and there was ventilation holes. There is not and you will see in the picture as you can also see the moisture on the inside of the box. This Crafty Crab is manned by a bunch of youngsters who know nothing about customer service. With NOT JUST CRAB being up the street, and manned by a younger staff, they are way more PROFESSIONAL. Because of Charney's lack of professionalism, I've always chosen Crafty Crab over Not Just Crab. Not anymore. I will now go to Not just Crabs or Wings and Things further up the road. I hope it was worth it. I was so upset, I wrote a review and posted pictures. They got their last order from Me.

    I came here last year and had my first seafood boil! The shrimp, potatoes and corn were absolutely fantastic. Wow!! The sauce was so delicious, I could not stop wanting to smack my fingers. I came here in the middle of the day and the person I was with ordered crabs that we shared but they were really small. Our waitress was well meaning, but she forgot our bibs, gloves and bucket. Overall, it was alright. If I were to go again, I would focus on just the shrimp and other ingredients and not get their crabs.

    I will never be back to this place I guess the first time was a fluke and I should have listened to the reviews. I asked for sausage in my boil instead of broccoli. When I told the waitress she came back and suggested I pick the broccoli out so she could take it back to the kitchen. EXCUSE ME WHAT? I just sent the whole thing back and told them to take it off the bill. Cause what were they gonna do with the broccoli? Serve it to someone else? Lemon drop made with tequila. Slow service. Never again.

    Totally delish Snow Crab and Headless Shrimp
    Ryen E.

    We decided to get take out from here today. It's always fun to try a new crab boil bag. Totally impressed with Crafty Crab. The location is easy to find. Pickup service friendly. Menu is easy to read and order. The half pound headless shrimp and half pound snow crab legs combo was delish. Select whatever seasoning you want. I usually add a side of potatoes to the bag. What a special treat to enjoy!

    The seafood boils are always well seasoned and delicious. The other foods are mainly fried.

To me, that meant that it was a for sure sign that the food would be great! We had a very friendly server, another added plus. I'm a Charleston girlie so I was trying not to compare our seafoods and luckily I didn't have to... my boil was good, a little salty but delicious nonetheless. I had a mocktail that was equally tasty. This is for sure a spot that many celebrate their birthdays and other celebrations; we saw several. And to top it off, the staff does a whole production of singing "Happy Birthday" and they even offer a cheesecake slice to the birthday girl/boy! The R&B playing in the background forces you to dance and sing along as you eat (I loved that it reminded me of eating seafood with my family back home). If watching sports is your jam, they have several televisions tuned in to sports coverage. The restaurant is very spacey featuring different seating options for various party sizes. We sat across from the bar which was full of guests enjoying their dinner and drinks too. I definitely plan on coming back whenever I visit again.

Eh bc the food was just that and the prices were like yowza for the quality received. It's a Sunday night, dinner time, busy but no wait. Took a few minutes but got the drinks. Skipped appetizers and got straight to dinner. Kids cheese burger was truly on point and for $10 the best deal. Kids fried shrimp not bad. Wife's "fresh caught salmon" was ok, nothing special. My fish and chips...imo a disaster...breading to cod ratio was about 3:1...meaning so much batter, hardly any fish, it was a turn off. Maybe the original location is the hidden gem, but the other options in this shopping center I'd consider before dining here. Reminds me of like an upscale red lobster...but none of the delicious cheddar biscuits! I don't know, maybe we hit it at an off night, but it wasn't good nor the prices charged in relation.

She said she wanted crawfish and calamari so I did a quick Google search of something local that had decent reviews. We ordered a pound of King crab and 2lbs of crawfish and 2 boiled eggs in our boil. The king crab was $78 a pound (must be fire right?!) NO! It was overcooked and salty. The crawfish tails were about a nickel to quarter size. Looks like the pack you get for 999 frozen at Wegmans but they are priced for $1699 a pound here. No eggs but they have two extra potatoes. No one spoke when we walked inside although there is a stand at the door.. I had to speak first to ask if we get sat or seat ourselves... Our server barely spoke... didn't give us a name.. we first ordered the garlic bread which came out dark, brown, burnt and hard with a dipping sauce of liquid garlic butter... Not what I expected so I sent it back. She pretty much stayed away from the table the entire time. I ordered a drink as well... I heard the drinks were good here, but this was not the case tonight. I spent $195 on food we didn't eat, but I did not feel like going back-and-forth with the server considering she was already absent so I just took it as a loss paid my tab and now I'm writing a review instead. Safe to say I will not be going back. I truly hope other people read this review and decide to go somewhere else unless you like to complain. For the price this experience is laughable but not in a funny, more of a laugh so you don't cry type of way... Like literally I feel like this whole night was a joke, but it wasn't. It was a very expensive unpleasant unsatisfying meal with their mandatory 18% gratuity so
