I love a good seafood boil! This has honestly become my go to spot. They have good customer service and I enjoy how they make their boils. The place itself is clean and I appreciate the whole graffiti-esque route they took to enhancing their spot. They have a marker by the door to let you right your name or really anything just about anywhere in the restaurant. The restroom however was not the best; although it was clean, it smelled absolutely terrible. I couldn't even stomach it and had to leave without using it. I ordered the number 3 with all eggs and it was good! Sometimes they can be a bit heavy handed with seasoning which overpowers the taste of the dish so make sure you clarify everything when ordering. I recommend this spot if you haven't been yet just make sure you use the restroom before coming in! read more

This was a first time visit. Just down the street. Read Yelp reviews to decide. The place is clean and has plenty of ambiance. People have written on every inch of interior walls, lights, and paneling. Very cool and historic too. You order at the counter window and seat yourself. Self service on mints , napkins, and plastic ware. Lots of tables and booths for seating. Food was ordered then delivered to our table. Steaming hot and delicious. All the requested sauces were delivered to the table. Steamed oysters with real garlic and real butter sauce. Yummy! Egg fried rice delivered steaming hot and plenty to eat. Fried large shrimp with delicious hot sweet potato waffle fries. Fried catfish lightly crusted and flaky with plenty of home made fries steaming hot. Too much for us to eat so there were plenty for leftovers except the oysters. too good to leave. Prices are fair for so much quality food. Rice 10; fish and shrimp baskets 15; a dozen oysters 18. Total of $ 73 and I left a 10 for a tip for quality and quantity House specialties are steamed seafoods sold by the pound and include potato and corn in your selected sauce. I would definitely recommend this place and will come back when I can. Don't forget to bring a magic marker and write your name on the wall. read more

Permanently closed. Go to Krab Kingz across the street instead....so very good, lots of sauce, friendly staff, good seafood!!!

I did an online order, one pound of head on shrimp, half pound of crawfish, with a side of sausage, Cajun sauce, extra spicy. Was it spicy? No. Did I get a pound of shrimp? Also no. I weighed the shrimp when I got home and I got .68 lbs. was it delicious and tasty? No. Will I come back here again? No. Overly salted, not well spiced or seasoned... crawfish wasn't fresh. I got the standard one corn, one egg, two potatoes. It just wasn't good. read more

This is not a true southern crab boil, we lived in Sc for over 10 years and know a true east coast boil, but this is very delicious and a good price for the product. It IS however, much messier than a southern boil so make sure you are wearing casual clothing you don't care if stained by grease. We've gone several times and will do so again- dressed accordingly but ready to enjoy all the flavors! read more

I really love this place! its very peaceful and their sea food boils are very good!! my favorite food from this place is definitely their egg fried rice, its definitely the best fried rice ive ever tried, its rich and buttery in a way that makes you want to keep eating it!! I love this place and ive been coming here since early 2020 and its definitely one of my favorites seafood places to go to! the workers are also very friendly and this place is ALWAYS clean. read more

The food was delicious, we ate in the restaurant and it was interesting looking around at all the different signatures on the wall. I did have to send my food back due to being allergic to corn and it was corrected quickly and renewed. read more

Small restaurant business. I'm a fan of seafood. I have been to New Orleans, great seafood there at a low price. So I'm kind of spoiled by the price and amount of food you get. Of course I know the price for shipping has to be in consideration being in Kansas City. I'd say a little pricey. But not by that much. First pic out of the bag was impressive. They use a rubber band to keep the lid close. Opening the lid you find a plastic bag. This took up space. So looks can be distracting. There was a fair amount of food. Drowned in butter, medium size diced garlic, your choice of seasoning, there's a few to choose. I chose Cajun of course, being a New Orleans fan. I found it a little too much salt for my taste. I did enjoy my meal. Seafood and BBQ/ finger foods, I love. If it isn't messy a little. You're not doing it correctly. So I enjoyed the fact, "It's messy." They do give you a bib and gloves for those who don't like licking the butter off your fingers. My taste in spice level isn't that of, " My mouth is on fire." But I like to sweat a little. Mild for me, Thank you. I did a walk in order to go. Service was speedy, but they weren't that busy either. I like, off the Country Club Plaza places. So if you're like minded. I would say give them a try. Support local small businesses. And decide for yourself. read more

Started out for dinner at Krazy Krab and the colorful sign for Crazy Crab caught our eye. We decided to give it a shot for dinner. Our food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. The Cajun spice wasn't too spicy. We ordered Hot but next time would probably do extra hot. Everything in the bag was flavorful and cooked just right! This isn't a formal place - it's super casual. They don't currently have any servers, but they were delivering the food to your table. Make sure you use the bin and gloves- you'll be glad you did! read more

Honestly the taste is close to a 5 stars almost perfect, portions are good as well. The reason why I gave it 4 stars and not 5 is because it is quite pricy but it is worth it to be honesty! read more

I ordered garlic butter mild seasoning #1 combo and all I got was garlic. Shrimp literally taste like just shrimp. No seasoning at all. Like I'm headed to get something to season this food with.

There are not too many Cajun seafood boils in the KC area, and Crazy Crab is my least favorite on the list. This is my second time trying this location and both times I was not impressed. The service is great and quick. Once I placed my order, It took less than 10 minutes for my food to arrive at the table. The food arrives nice and steaming hot. I ordered the shrimp (head on) with 1/2 lbs of sausage. You get a choice of 3 sauce flavors and if you would like to add an extra kick to your meal, you do have the option to select the spice level. I opt in for the hot all mix sauce flavor. I was most disappointed in the sauce. It was extremely bland, not even a hint of flavor. The spice level is not up to par than other Cajun boils that I've been to. I would have thought my second time would be better than my first. However, this most recent visit reminded me of why I didn't enjoy Crazy Crab the first time. read more

Great place for Friday night Fish Fry. Lots to choose from. We had fried shrimp and friend had fried catfish. Will go back to try the crab. Casual, clean and the food was tasty and reasonably priced. read more

Tested this place out as I was in KC. The food smelled amazing. You def can tell when its fresh vs. frozen. For being frozen the snow crab was the best. I definitely would come back for those. Out of the flavors medium garlic butter love the chunky garlic cuts. The mix extra hot was the best out of the two. Even if that was no where near extra hot. Its takeout only due to road construction and covid. But I would love to experience the dine in ambiance as well. Friend got the fried oyster basket. Was not impressed, maybe because the oysters are not in season. A true seafood place would suggest something different. read more

I will give them a 4 star because the food is amazing, I love seafood and the sides, although I like them I wish they have more flavors to select from. everytime I have gone in there, there is always a wait and rightful so. the staff is friendly and diverse also very good at suggesting what to order. The spice levels are great. I personally always take friends or just my S/O and I but I always get the seafood combo which comes with crab legs, shrimp, corn, potatoes and egg. the food is soo good so I will happily pay what they ask for but I do not think they are reasonably priced. read more

I finally tried the city's "HOT NEW" seafood restaurant - CRAZY CRAB that had Social Media buzzing for the last few weeks. I must say that I wasnt terribly impressed. I ordered shrimp (head off) extra eggs & sausage Garlic Butter/Mild and a #7 combo that includes the crawfish, shrimp, potatoes, and corn - All Mixed/Hot. I added an extra 1/2 lb of crawfish hoping for the best. Soooo looking at the 1st order (Shrimp) it looked and tasted as if it was simply covered in butter. I barely tasted a hint of garlic. So we lose a star here. Now comes the #7 with the Crawfish. I wasnt impressed by the presentation. It looked as if all the seasoning was on TOP of the crawfish. But hey, its Kansas City, I can't expect Louisiana crawfish in the Midwest unless I cooked them myself. But hey a girl can dream right? I tried the shrimp first, not terribly bad but I was looking for that kick from the "ALL MIXED/HOT" sauce. Well ummmm it's been appx 24 hours later and I'm still waiting on it to kick in. But we aren't going to take a star yet. They are new let's give them a chance right..... soooo here's the make it or break it point. The CRAWFISH. My FAVORITE Seafood dish ever. I'm a Louisiana girl . I was ready to pinch the tail and suck the head and be in total seafood heaven and sadly that didnt happen. So here went the other star... I am literally looking at the season on my crawfish (which I'm not accustomed to) and I go to eat the crawfish tail and tadaaa there was NO flavor. I had to take the meat from the tail and rub it over the crawfish itself (that's where the seasoning was) in order to get some seasoning on the tail. I will say the boiled egg and corn were good. But $67 later and with allll the hype on Social Media, I was expecting so much more. The remodel from Chubbys to Crazy Crab is nice. The service wasnt terribly bad. The telephone number isn't listed anywhere on the business page on Social Media or the webpage that's not completely up and running as of Sunday 1/29/19. I found the telephone number by looking at other reviews and someone posted the menu displaying the number. You are unable to order online nor over the phone despite what the website says. To quickly compare it to the seafood restaurant across the street (I won't mention the name out of respect), I wouldn't count them out yet. I believe if they step up their game just a little bit, add a little bit more to their menu they will still be in the running. #SeafoodJunky #CrawfishLover #LouisianaGirl read more

All around an awful experience. Walk in and stood at the hostess stand for several minutes while two employees just stared at us. Apparently they aren't sitting families, you order at their take out counter and seat yourself. The best part of the meal was how fast food came out. But the server just slammed the food down on the table, didn't ask if we needed anything or say a word to us. I ended up going back up to the counter to ask for some ranch and again, the employee didn't say a word and tossed a kraft ranch packet on the counter in front of me. I ordered the lemon pepper wings, the wings came out breaded with a cup of the lemon pepper seasoning in the basket.. very weird so I poured the seasoning on the wings and tried to toss them myself. As I went to take a bite of the wing, I noticed it had little hairs baked into the breading, I found hair on every single wing. When I tried to alert the staff they didn't care, didn't take the wings back, offer to make me anything else just left the wings sitting on the table the entire meal. My husband got a boil bag and he seemed to enjoy it, a lot of food but he said everything was cold. Overall, a really disappointing experience, we will not be back nor would we recommend to anyone. read more

Worst place to go, customer service worst ever... waited for 2 hours and no one services .... Very poor and dirty

I ordered crab legs and shrimp on the lunch menu.. Some of the crab legs were almost hollow. The cluster was small and flavorless. Shrimp was decent in size, but flavorless. Corn on the cob tough ( like the frozen corn) and flavorless. Your food is served in a clear plastic bag on top of a silver tray. This and a hard boiled egg on the lunch menu for $22.00. Don't waist your money! read more

Seafood in Missouri? That's a pretty tough find to find something like that in the middle of the country that also happens to taste good. Coming from California, I needed my seafood fix. This place was able to pull it off and satisfy me. Being one of the only Cajun boils, I had to give this a try. I got a combo between a pound of the clams and a pound of the shrimp. For the sauce, I got a mild sauce that was a mix of Cajun, lemon, and garlic butter. As the food came out in a bag, you opened it to get smacked right in the face of a nice Cajun aroma. With your senses all heightened, you end up finding yourself basically with a bag of seafood drenched in oil. It was so much that it ended up giving me a stomach ache from how much there was. The bag came with potato, corn, and an egg. The egg didn't go well with the meal and seemed out of place. The corn was probably the main star out of the meal as it was nice and juicy. The seafood was average as the shrimp shells were stuck onto the meat so as you were trying to peel, you were basically tearing off pieces of shrimp (aka overcooked). The clams were fine, quarter of them were broken so you get the occasional small pieces of shell that you may be chewing on. Overall, the food was decent and satisfied the occasional craving. The staff were very welcoming and always came by to strike up a conversation. If I could, I'd give a 3 to a 3.5 out of 5! read more

Me and a friend went for our birthday seafood feast. I was wary but I was pleasantly surprised. The service was great, restaurant was clean and there was no wait on a Saturday pearly evening. Snow crab and shrimp were delicious I was disappointed in the blue crab. My friend had the fried catfish and shrimp. He said it was wonderful and that the breading was light and not overly crowd. My only regret is that I didn't mention how disappointed I was at the blue crab. We did leave full and happy. read more

My first visit here when they first opened was great. I got a big, beautifully messy bag of tasty and spicy shrimp, crab legs, corn, egg, and potatoes. However, upon a second and third visit, it appears as though they've downgraded to vegetable oil or some low grade oil which drowns out all the seasoning and is of course disgusting. I have included a picture of the oil I removed from my bag of crab legs and shrimp. The seafood is fine but everything is completely ruined by being drowned in tasteless oil. Eating here is like living through the BP oil spill. read more
