    a bowl of boiled crawdads and corn
    Jessica F.

    As always, it was a delicious meal. Got crawfish, and they were, for the most part, a good size. Although it's not crawfish season, I was happy with them. The flavor was on point for the crawfish, corn, potatoes, and sausage. Service was quick and super friendly. They know they are good, yet they still care about their service and hospitality. I will keep coming back every time I visit Jackson. This place is also a BYOB kind of place.

    My first time at a boil let alone eating crawfish and it was an experience that I thoroughly enjoyed. Finding this place was easy yet difficult. The GPS will take you to some museum so be sure to turn into the right area. You just walk up to the window and order. Paper towels at your table. They give you containers and tubs with your food and an empty tub for your shells. I loved it. Very filling and no frills. Tasted great!

    So if you are looking for someplace fancy this ain't it. Now if you looking for some good eatin' without the high overhead...THIS IS IT!!! I'm from Indiana...so crawfish boils are rare. This place was such a treat. Biggest regret...we forgot our beer...'cause a cold beer to wash down this good food would've been perfect. So from the outside it looks like a shack...an extended shack...but its actually a really cool, clean spot. There are two lines...one for carry out and then one for those looking to eat at the location. Most of the seating is outside...but there is a small room for indoor seating. Decor is very southern with sports and various music albums. The menu is simple with shrimp, crawfish, crab legs, several combination plate offers, and tamales (which has to be purchased by half dozen). My table ordered the pound of shrimp, half pound of shrimp and the crawfish. All of us were satisfied. The corn that we ordered (it doesn't come with corn or sausage and must be ordered seperately) was amazing and went well with our food. The seasoning was on point. This is definitely a worthwhile spot to visit while in Jackson.

    "Krabby Plate"

    Tried Crawdad Hole for the first time today. I really wanted to sit in (or out rather) and eat but nobody was really up for crawfish so I enjoyed it from the comfort of my home. I read other reviews about how it's a literal "hole" in the wall & when I pulled up, it surely is. It's more of a shack with outside seating and apparently some indoor seating (I didn't go in) but I could see a single group of people sitting out on a picnic table enjoying their food. Ordering was easy. There's a white board right when you get to the window with their menu items and prices. I got the crawfish by the pound, of course, and the 'Krabby Plate' and also 1/2 dozen tamales for my mom. The Krabby Plate comes with what looks like a half cluster of crab legs, corn, 2 potatoes & sausage. It looked like a kids meal. The crab legs weren't that good (very basic) & the corn was awful--it tasted like it was spoiled if corn can spoil. However, the only reason I'm rating it 4 stars is because the crawfish was AMAZING! I guess that's truly what they're known more for. Spice level did not disappoint, seasoned to perfection, & a pretty decent size. It was so good I ate it in one sitting, which I never really do because to me, it gets old fast lol. But each bite brought new flavor; I would go again for the crawfish! (Oh & the tamales were good too per my mother )

    If there is better seasoned seafood I have never had it. The crawfish and crab were so good that I immediately planned my return trip for the next day. If it weren't for them being closed on Monday I would probably be there tomorrow. The sausage, corn and potatoes are so good. You don't need butter, cocktail sauce, just napkins.

    Great food great service. I came for a late lunch and was the only one there so the guys working talked with me for a while. Gave me a free pound of crawfish to go as well! Definitely will be back next time I'm in town

    Crawfish are too small and prices too high. 35$ for 5 lbs and a water are unheard of heard of

It was a good pick. I had the Weekend, juicy with medium seasoning. It was dripping off my elbows and BOGO beers is always a plus. The bartender was friendly and attentive. It was worth the short walk.

The meal plan to ight is the Boom Boom Shrimp appetizer which arrived promptly. 15 shrimp deep fried and tossed in Boom Boom Dunner is a shout out to the Shrimp Gumbo and a Shrimp Po Boy with another Sour drink. Too bad the second was smaller than the first. Lost a star here people. Waitress did not know anything about the Gumbos so no advice there. Decided to take my chances anyway.pointed this out and was brushed off so I kept the glass! (Approved by the way). Po Boy was delivered deconstructed which was interesting. 4 large shrimp dressed with maters and lettuce, mayo missing. Would liked to have had seasoned shrimp but thats a preference. Gumbo was goodish at best. Needed a bit more rice and some Cajun seasonings. Not sure about the waitstaff here though. Greeter was too busy in the tablet to know I was here but made her way to finally get me a table. Waitress was locked to the cross body purse and didn't offer any help on the menu choices. Finished off the meal with a Butter Coffee cake togo. All being said I think a 3.75 star is acceptable for what I got.

    I visited Mighty Crab in Jackson, Mississippi on Thursday, 06/04/26, around 9 PM…read more Originally, I had the intention to dine inside the restaurant. Unfortunately, the hostess indicated that the restaurant doesn't allow dine-in guests one hour before closing. I proceeded to go with the takeout option instead. At this restaurant, daily specials are offered. Since I came on a Thursday, I opted for the seafood boil deal that came with 1 lb of snow crab legs, 1/2 lb of shrimp, corn, and red potatoes. I customized the flavor as the "Mighty Special" - Cajun, Lemon Pepper and Garlic Butter all combined. For the spicy level, I chose "Hot." The total was only $36.99! This was such a steal, especially since the seafood boil bag was generous. When trying it, it was honestly so flavorful and palatable. The sauce literally made the crab legs, shrimp, corn, and potatoes beyond tasty. Mighty Crab serves satisfying seafood boils with mouthwatering bold flavors! This spot is definitely worth paying a visit to.

    I give one star because of the terribly unprofessional, disrespectful treatment I received from…read morestaff today. I called in my order of two bowls of steamed white rice, a half a pound of sausage, and 3 corn on the Cobb. The corn on the Cobb is currently advertised at $3.00 on the website. However the agent informed me that the price has changed and it was now $3.50 and she said this was an incredible amount of anger and attitude. I informed her that the restaurant was suppose to sell at the advertised price but that I would speak to someone about it later and as soon as I said that it sounded like she slammed down the phone. I heard nothing. I ended up calling back and she answered and before I could say anything she said someone else 'would deal with me'. When the other woman came to the phone I started to give my order and I mentioned the advertised price showed $3.00 and she cut me off and said 'no one would be honoring the price on the website'. As I was speaking to her the other female was in the background yelling and insulting me. I could hear her very well. I mentioned to the woman that I could hear her and she cut me off again and told me in so many words she 'didnt have time to address that and for me to continue with the order". I finished my order and she said one of the part owners was inside the restaurant but that the owners 'never spoke with customers' and "he's not going to discount anything for you'. WOW... Talk about being incredibly rude. I like the food here but the way they handled the price being different on the website was just to ignore it and go off on the customer who brought it to their attention.
