Been here a few times now. Usually to celebrate a birthday in the family. The place is never overly busy which is nice. So no wait!! Our server was very good and very attentive to us. The place was clean and did not have any seafood smell to it. Sometimes you never know with a seafood boil type place. This time I got the catfish basket with fries. The pieces of catfish were very good. Could have used a little bit seasoning in the batter but overall good. It comes with 4 good sized pieces and a large amount of fries. The fries were a little plain and needed lots of salt and pepper. Overall good experience once again read more

First time at this establishment. Went on a Saturday about 3pm, wasn't extremely busy so server came quickly. Ordered the 1/2 lb. crab leg/shrimp/potatoes/corn, and sausage boil bag with extra 1/2 lb. Snow crab. We only asked for garlic, butter seasoning, I ended up asking for Old Bay seasoning to get some kind of flavor. The only complaint I had was the shrimp were cooked too much. They were tough. The restaurant was constantly being cleaned, and the bathroom was pretty clean also. I have to say that this business is quite big and there wasn't that many people there. I hope they get a lot busier than they were today, because they won't be open long if not. read more

The interior is so cool, almost like you're in a shipwreck with all the giant crabs and lobsters and see food attacking haha and don't forget the pirates! We were seated immediately. Our server came and took our orders. We ordered rice, French fries, fried oyster (it came with French fries so we didn't know and we had double French fries) We ordered dozen oysters, Peel and eat shrimp with potatoes, and finally my other pot we can use it as natural break. We rly enjoyed it. They def pretty good and worth coming back! read more

Just ate at hungry crab. It was awesome and Lela, the waitress was amazing. Highly recommend!

Oh I curse the day I tried sea food boil! Cause It's just so good!. I have gone to all of the sea food boils around UCF area and I believe Humgry Crab reigns supreme. I have gone about 6 times to Hungry Crab and here is my review: Service: 10/10. The max wait time when full was about 10mins. Once seated the waiters are fast and friendly and help you our if you have never done a sea food boil. Food: 8/10. I have gotten the Dungeons Crab, the Snow crab, the Shrimp and the Crawfish. My go to is the every day special 1 lbs of Snow crab and half lbs of shrimp for about 36$. I always get the hungry crab sauce. The food is delicious. My only reason why I dont give it a 10/10 is because sometimes the shrimp and crab is iver cooked. Which makes it harder to peel/crack their shell and pull. Overall, i believe its it worth going. I give it a solod 8.5/10 read more

The decorations may be a little over the top but the food and service is wonderfull. They do not make reservations except for large parties so there can be a wait. Lots of seafood and flavor options for their boils. Everyone in our group of 10 enjoyed their meal. read more

Hungry Crab - Menu - Seafood Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Hungry Crab is a casual spot offering delicious plates. First time visit for me, as I stopped by with family for dinner. They mentioned this place a few times, so I figured, why not try it. Our server was super friendly and attentive. Our drinks and meals arrived promptly. I went with the half pound combo as it was plenty of food for one. Their cocktails were on point too! Sadly, couldn't give it five stars as the dessert menu was lacking (only two options). Overall solid spot and worth the trip if you're visiting or new in town. read more

My husband and I love the Hungry Crab. We had not been in a while so, last night we decided to order and pick it up. I placed an online order. It was easy and simple, but I never received a confirmation email back. My husband decided to call and ended up placing the order over the phone. As soon as he hung up, we started driving to the restaurant as our order was going to be ready in about 15 mins. We got to the restaurant and as soon as I came in I was greeted by the host. Our order was ready for us to take home. I made payment and on my way I went. We were about to leave when our favorite server, Jing, was leaving. She saw us and came to say hi. Pickup experience a 10. This seafood restaurant is very chill. They always have good music playing. The staff is great and y heir food is amazing. read more

Have been here multiple times before, each time has always been great. The past few times the restaurant has been very busy, but waiting times aren't too long. We get the daily special of 1 lb of crab legs and 1/2 shrimp (no head) and it's the best deal! Food is always delicious, sometimes you have to work for your meat though. We got lucky today with some great meat pulls!! read more

I was really impressed with Hungry Crab. I was in the mood for fried fish, and I was going to a movie nearby, so I figured I'd give it a try. I am so glad I did! I went with the fried snapper basket. Four pieces and fries for $14. Not a bad deal. The fish was delicious! Full of flavor and seasoning (my mouth is watering just thinking back on it). The fries were on point too (y'all know I'm the Fry Snob). I'm looking forward to trying more menu items, but it's going to be hard to pull away from the snapper! read more

The place itself is cute and great photo ops , however , it's the worst place we've eaten in Orlando for seafood . The oysters weren't bad but the red snapper was AWFUL , as was the coleslaw (inedible ) . We took one bite of each and left the entire platter there . Two tables near us complained they were going for burgers when leaving . read more

I'm the only person in my household that loves seafood so I usually go alone. The service was kinda slow as there were only a handful of people there. The crab legs were musty- was never able to get a full leg of the shell to dip. I'm not sure it that because they were frozen or if they were over steamed but it was lackluster. read more

Hungry Crab is such a FUN place to eat seafood at! I went with coworkers and they loved the food and the experience. We ordered the special: 1 lb of one of the proteins and 1/2 lb is free! It comes with 1 corn and potatoes, more than enough for 1 person. Oh! And we ordered it with ALL the spices We also ordered the coconut shrimp as an appetizer, which was delicious. Service was quick and very nice. We will be back read more

Hungry Crab - Special: 1 lb shrimp + 1/2 lb sausage - Seafood Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I came to the Hungry Crab in honor of Mardi Gras. Growing up on the Gulf Coast, I always did a huge boil for Mardi Gras, but since I came to Orlando, I couldn't find a place within the first few years, and then gave up. Well, I try and better myself every year, and this year I said no more! I was going to find a place for my hot, spicy seafood. I did some research, and decided to give this relatively new Hungry Crab location a try. Well thank goodness that I did. This place was incredible. The inside was very interesting, because it's nestled in the skeleton of an old Chinese buffet, but that left plenty of room for huge pirate ships and giant statues of Johnny Depp. Very cool space inside. Service was great. The mix 'n' match nature of the menu had us asking a lot of questions, but our server helped us navigate our way to the correct answer. That, and they kept the refills of excellent sweet tea coming the whole time. As for the food, oh man, it was very good. I forgot exactly what the menu item we ordered was called, but it was a combo meant for two people. It was moderately spicy boiled crab legs, shrimp, crawfish, clams, and mussels, along with some corn and potatoes as accoutrements. The seafood was all cooked pretty good. I want to go out of my way to say that almost all the boiled seafood I have had in Orlando, cough or Melbourne cough, ever has been severely overcooked. If you're an offending seafood owner and are reading this, please call up Hungry Crab and figure out what they're doing differently than you. Anyway, it was cooked good, it was seasoned good, and there was just the perfect amount of spicy, garlicky butter at the bottom of the bucket for you to sop up with the corn, the potatoes, whatever you want. So good. Overall, so this place is just dynamite. Maybe it's a chain, but they're a chain and other places are not for a reason. I plan on coming here every Mardi Grad like clockwork. read more

Bella was amazing!!! She helped our party of 15 all by herself. She didn't forget anything and she always recapped before she walked away. The food was awesome. Dungeness crab special was enough for my daughter and me to finish. The drinks were good, too. I had a Watermelon Cosmo and it was perfect. The huge crab fixtures are great photo backdrops. I will definitely return! read more

Pros: The ambiance is a lot of fun! It's semi-fish tank vibe provides a lot of fun things to look around at, including a giant Jack Sparrow! Service was nice. She prepared us well for our messy meal, and kept the drinks flowing the whole time. Food was excellent. We have a hard time finding good seafood in Orlando, so the good cook on these delicate little morsels was really a nice surprise. Cons: No cons. Just prepare to get messy. Thank God they give you a bib. Lol. Tips: I feel like you'll have a good experience no matter what you order, but try to get a combo, because it's fun to switch back and forth between things you're eating. Bring a hair tie. read more

Wonderful seafood boil!! Seasoning was outstanding and I ordered the sausage and shrimp boil. Comes with corn and potatoes. Honestly it was delicious and I would recommend and I will be back. read more

Patrons should be asked if they've eaten there before as the menu needs to be explained. I wasn't expecting my food to be served whole (in the shell with eyes) in a "steam-in", blown-up plastic bag. It was my first time there & felt self conscious. It was super difficult to eat, messy & just not good. Not the food. Not the experience. Had I been informed about my selection, I absolutely would've either chosen something else or opted not to eat. The service was adequate & the ambiance was very quiet. Not busy at all & maybe I should've taken that into consideration before ordering. I love seafood so I hope this is constructive criticism to improve. read more

Not bad, your typical crab joint if anything. Nothing extremely out of the ordinary or special. I will say that the drinks were pretty nice and the service was excellent as well as we were checked on several times throughout the night. The waiter gave us the suggestions as far as what's good and we just took our time consuming drinks while enjoying the company. So it was actually a decent place to go and check out. Like I said it's another crab joint so I wouldn't be pressed to go back again unless I'm in the neighborhood and it makes sense. read more

I've passed this place driving a million times but finally tried it for dinner. The outside is potentially misleading given that it's just in an old shopping strip. But somewhat to my surprise I really enjoyed the seafood boil for dinner. The seafood was fresh and they have a lot of different combo options as well as flavorings and spice levels. Everything was delicious. Service left a little to be desired. However for a quick, local seafood dinner this is a great option and I would definitely come back read more

Food: is always good what I like about this place is that they always have e special on the crab legs. And their drink menu is pretty good. The potatoes in the bag are ny favorite. The Hush Puppies I don't recommend they were super dry. Service: is definitely fast and good can't complain. Ambiance: is large place and very active place. read more

I had eaten at home so i didn't get to experience the "Ambiance" or whatever. The service.. was okay, now the FOOD. Mannn, dont even waste your time. i had gotten a side of spicy sauce, and yall might as well had given me a tub of SODIUM, when i tell you it was just.. SEASONING and OIL. They didnt even have the audacity to mix the seasoning and oil TOGETHER. So not only do i have a salty over-seasoned seafood boil, but i have a have a salty and oily sauce on top of that. AND IT ISNT EVEN SPICY, oh how i am very disapointed, Also, those little plastic bibs/aprons you give us are a potential health hazard and one could choke themselves. Are we so serious right now? One Fucking Star. You could do better hungry crab read more

Wow, this restaurant in Orlando, Florida, was so good, and my family and I had a feast here. The waitress was so sweet and took very good care of us.

Our little niece had chicken nuggets she was happy with her dish . I highly recommend when traveling to Florida to pay them a visit. read more

Not much to say. Food quality was below average, order was not correct, and service was terrible.

Food was amazing, but the service sucked. We had multiple waiters passing our table and would not acknowledge the guest unless you hollered for them. Our drinks did not get filled up and we had to constantly ask for a waiter to get the bill. We waited a total of 45 minutes to get our bill paid. Not impressed. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE AND PAY CASH. THEY STEAL YOUR CHANGE! The server intentionally did not give me back any lose change. I questioned the female (definitely a foreigner & had a foreign accent... possibly Asian) stated they do NOT give out change to customers. They always round up or down to the nearest dollar. I let her know it is illegal to intentionally give the customer less money than they are owed & that I will be reporting it. I advised her of legal ramifications, and all of a sudden, she wanted to give me my change. I will be notifying multiple news agencies about this. I was going to leave a $10 tip until I saw that she didn't give me the loose change that I was legally due to get. She didn't even tell me that she shorted me on my money back. That's POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE! So, instead of getting a $10 tip, I only gave her a $4 tip (my bill was about $25 subtotal). I almost didn't leave a tip since they stole my money, but I decided that she did provide me a service, so I should give her something, but not nearly what I was going to give her. Also, the server accidentally knocked over my friends drink of soda and did NOT apologize that it spilled onto BOTH of us. She simply moved us to a different table. Now, on a good note, the shrimp today was seasoned pretty well, tasted good, and was the perfect temperature. I liked it. Too bad they just lost my business because they intentionally stole my few cents. I have been going here regularly for a while, but not anymore. Oh, lastly, we got there about 12:10 today and were the first customers there today. The entire time we were there, they were not very busy at all. And until one specific group of customers arrived, it was pretty quiet. The ambiance was nice. The decorations the theme was 100% on target for being a seafood restaurant. The women's restroom was clean. The water to wash your hands was cold. No hot water at all! I will say that every time I have been to this restaurant, it has ALWAYS been clean! It's probably one of the cleanest restaurants I've been in. As far as being a clean restaurant, I'd give them 5 stars. Overall, they only get 2 stars because they stole my money! They are NOT ethical or professional, in my opinion. read more

I want to eat with my son. It was a light rainy day when we were done we paid the bill. The total is $84.11. The man explained that because it was raining he was having issues with his register and that it only charged my card $78.99. I told him that was fine if he wanted to swipe it for the additional five the money was there had it in holding my wanting to swipe it again for the full total amount. I showed him my bank account and showed him that it was taken out. He was arguing with me. Saying it just says pre-authorized and then I'm gonna get my money back I said sir this is how it normally goes. If you buy a soda it'll say on your card it's pre-authorized. He went back-and-forth with me a few times finally, I took my card back, not realizing that he already swiped my card again. told the waitress he's taking the five dollars and change that I owe out and the rest is for tip. I thought the situation was done I went to pick up my other son from school so then get another charge for $50 after I left and nobody would answer the phone so I called the police and met them back at the restaurant and told him how he stole from me called my bank so the officer could hear that both transactions were done at different times yet nothing could be done all the manager said it was for me to dispute the charges, and the cop said he couldn't arrest him for theft that he told the manager the way he's doing his practices at that location is not good. You can't just go charging people twice. The manager even admitted that he charges people twice cause his machine is messed up and tells them that if it does go. through to come back and he'll refund, but if I was to eat and run out on my I would get The manager literally did a reverse dine and dash and was able to get away with even though he admitted he does this often if you're gonna go to this take cash cause he's gonna steal from you read more

Family time is always the best time and I had such a fun time celebrating my sister in laws birthday this weekend @hungrycrabseafood .This is not polite Dining. This is kick back a few beers and dig in eating. Juicy, messy, spicy, use ALL the napkins kind of good. We got crab legs, head on shrimp and crawfish. Extra potatoes and corn is a must. The corn gets all in your teeth and makes you look uncivilized but who cares. It's so yummy. Head on shrimp is the ONLY way to go. If you don't like it, wimpy, wimpy, wimpy! The staff was great and the whole place was really fun and inviting. We'll be back! read more

Hungry Crab was a pleasant surprise. I'll be honest, when we first sat down I wanted to get up and leave because the ambience is TACKY. Like something out of an 80s National Lampoons film sort of tacky. They even have a completely pointless robot that takes longer to program than it does to bring you to your seat. It did not bring us food.. perhaps that has changed? Anyway, once I got over my snobbiness (fear not, my hubby made sure I knew how much of a snot I was being), my nostrils makes sure I knew what was really up. The drinks are wonderfully cheap but small and on the sweet side. However, the mass of steaming and exceptionally seasoned seafood you get in your boil is really something not to miss. I was able to put my snobbiness aside, wrap a plastic bib around my neck with pride, and dove into that spicy, juicy mess of seafood pleasure. Moral of the story- don't be a snob like Ashley. Listen to her hubs and give the seafood boils a shot because they are worth the 68 napkins, two toothpicks, and fingernail cleaning after! read more

Place is spacious and has fun decor! Came in on a Tuesday with my family for blue crab. When it was time to put in our order, we were all disappointed to only then be informed that they didn't have any (refer to happy hour menu-- considering they even have an "all day blue crab special", this would've been a kind heads up early on lol) Our raw oysters to share arrived oddly positioned, so the natural juice from the oysters were basically nonexistent. The oysters had no taste to them (our server said they're from Texas Gulf) aside from "fresh" and only the topping/s you put on it. They did add a generous amount of lemons without us asking, which I also used for my main dish later on. I had 1 pound of snow crab (which is 2 clusters) boil with garlic butter and mild. The snow crab was meaty and the sauce was delicious-- pretty much what you would expect from a seafood boil. Hopefully the next time I get to try this place again, they'll have some blue crab hehehe read more
