This was my first time trying this place. I wasn't happy with my order. I got what I asked for, but the lobster tail was over cooked and rubbery. It was hard to pull it apart and the meat stuck to the skin. EVERYTHING was drowned in a butter sauce. The sauce was too much so I had to wipe the food off. The crab legs were overcooked as well. It was hard to break them open. The corn was overcooked; it was too soft. There was no crunch left in it. The casing in the sausage was so tough that the meat pushed out when I bit into it but the casing never separated. This is really the worst meal I have had, and it was not cheap. The staff was nice. That is the best I can say. I almost never leave a bad review, but the food was sooooo disappointing. read more

I love Krab kingz. Seafood boil, fried food, drinks, all of it is so delicious. The drinks are also good. The service is always top tier and the food is always fresh. They now have a lounge which is very nice if you want a place to chill and vibe with friends or solo. read more

I visited for lunch and had an awesome dining experience. The seafood here is delicious. I had the lunch special #2. It came with 7 Jumbo Shrimp, 1 Crab Claw, Potatoes, 1 Boiled egg, & A Sausage. It was amazing and more than filling. I had left overs to take home for dinner. You can choose the butter seasoning that you want. I had Cajun. The sauce gives the bowl an awesome burst of flavor. I mean the whole thing is just amazing. You will have to try it. The ordering process is simple. You go in and there's a huge menu on the wall for you to figure your purchase out. Then you get in line, order, then they will call you back up to the counter when your order is ready! It is not a huge space, but it adequate space for dining in. read more

JUST HORRIBLE. I spent about $60.00 on a seafood boil, with another dish of crawfish for my partner and I. All dishes were drowned in very very thick, grainy butter. Everything was swimming in it. I don't believe my stomach can take this much grease at once. Also, seafood boils are suppose to be a bit healthy and this dish, swimming in super thick butter that is caked on everything is far, far from healthy. Also, if you have acid reflux (GERD) this dish will be absolutely disastrous. It can cause an attack. I tasted a few shrimp pieces on the dish and I just couldn't go on. The flavor of the seafood is not there. This thick greasy butter sauce is simply not flavorful either. It's nasty. Everything has a thick greasy layer. This 'butter' destroys the taste of the meal. Also, Is this even butter? Butter has some flavor. This gooey mess has no flavor. The crawfish were also swimming in water (which you can't see per the pictures but when the plate is held the crawfish just slosh around in it) and caked up greasy butter. I've never seen that much water in a crawfish dish. It was yucky looking. It's like the guy pulled out the crawfish frozen over in ice and just cooked it in the tray and gave it out with the sauce poured into the water. This is a travesty. Honestly. I've lost my money. But you live and you learn. The portions were generous and I do give that to them, but the thick, flavorless, butter sauce that drowned out the flavor and made everything inedible was too much. Shame. THESE PEOPLE DO NOT KNOW SEAFOOD BOILS AT ALL. I CAN'T EAT THIS! UPDATE: My partner and I were able to salvage some of the seafood boil by wiping down Some of the pieces. We had to use almost an entire paper towel roll. (View the photos). That sauce was like goo. It clung to our fingers and the food and was sort of slimy and grainy. I do not believe that is butter. We refused to touch the crawfish dish. It was beyond disgusting. Again the photos do not capture how disgusting this dish looked. when the container was moved the water separated from the gooey sauce and you could just see the water sloshing around. It looked like dirty sink or sewage water. So we tossed it. We did not eat even one of them. read more

So this is dope!!! I watch crab boils on YouTube so I have been dying to try this place out for awhile now. RESTAURANT QUALITY: you walk in and immediately realize... sitting space is a whole other level of limited. Almost feels like it is encouraging you to go "eat this at home cuz we don't want to clean up this mess you bout to make" lol. It's about 5 tables along the wall and then just sitting space for your to-go order. Not very pleasant to be honest. The bar chairs in the middle of the floor makes you want to just go wait outside cuz it feels like a hospital waiting room. The staff is okay ... kind of a toss up on the attitude you may get tbh. I wish all staff just used the chic-fil-a rubric on customer service... then again everyone isn't getting an automatic Sunday off lol. (2stars) -limited space -cuztomer service FOOD QUALITY: AWESOMENESS!!! the food is great! You definitely get a bang for your buck. My plate lasted me awhile to be honest, because you are basically getting your own personal mini crab boil. It was full of flavor! Wasn't a big fan of the sausage though. It wasn't much uniqueness there. Just smothered in the butter. I was really happy with the turn out when it came to the flavor in the shrimp and crab but was a little disappointed with the potatoes. They were good but since they take up a lot of the plate, you'd expect those potatoes to be as fire as the crab meat tbh. They were tender but the flavor was a hit and miss. It would probably be good for them to have a crab boil dipping sauce to cancel out the hit and miss flavor of the potatoes. To be honest, my only take away is that I wish they advertised some dipping sauces to use. I seen a little thing of sauces, but I didn't know if they would be good or not since it wasn't brought to attention. My advice is that they look up this chick Belovely seafood crab boils and see what the heck she makes as a sauce because that sauce she is using makes me want to do my own crab boil and make my own sauce to use with it. (4 stars) -quantity -flavor -fridge life OVERALL- call your order in, expect to eat it at home, and make your own crab boil dipping sauces. Lol read more

Okay, so I feel like I need to write this review because I caught a major attitude in the store Friday night and I'm sure they're talking about it like it was all me. But check it. We started going to KrabKingz early in the game. Like, before COVID. And we would have still been going there, even after if we hadn't gone to another place and seen how big the crabs were in comparison. Plus, it's always just hard to get what you need from there. Anyway, Friday night we decided to try it again and here we go. We first tried to order on DoorDash. We can't because there's no way to select what kind of sauce you want. We think it's probably our bad that we can't find it, but we are committed, so we call up there to try to figure out what to do. No one answers the phone. *sigh* So, we decide to take the first L and just go ahead and order online on their website and go pick it up. Do you know how much NOBODY wants to get up, put on clothes, and DRIVE 20 minutes up there after we're all settled in at home?! Order on website, easy breezy, but I forgot eggs. so, halfway into my drive someone calls and says my order is ready. "This is great!", I think. I ask her, "can you please add the eggs that I forgot to my order. I will pay for them when I get there." She said no. I can only add them when you get there. OK, but I just ordered over $100 worth of food and you think I'm going to stiff you over some $2 eggs? But I'm already on the way AFTER I DIDNT WANT TO BE so whatever. I might as well wait even longer after I get there for the eggs that you could easily add, but nah. *eye roll* Remember, when I said we ordered from the website? Well, I used my card on Google pay. When I get there, the lady tells me I can't have my food unless I have the same card. Ma'am. I did not know this. I just drove 20 minutes to get here and I don't think I have it. However, I do have another card which I am holding in my hand, so can we just use this one? Nooooooo. No, I can't. So, the lady suggests that I call home and get someone to send me a picture of it. That was very nice, but I just already don't want to be here and now this is pissing me off 10 times more than it needs to be. I could have had DoorDash. I could have been at home. Now I'm scrambling to find a credit card when she is holding one that she could use in her hand. It took all the strength that I have in my body not to leave right then and drive to Juicy Crab because at this point I am OVER IT. I don't even want this anymore after all this hassle. But, I found the card in my car and I was able to get the food that I had paid for in advance and had a receipt for. But I was so mad that I forgot the eggs. And then I remember that this exact reason is why we stopped going there. There is always something. There is always just some minor inconvenience that is enough to aggravate you, but they are very intent on instituting and following their own rules and procedures, even to the detriment of the customer. And the food is still only slightly better than just okay. read more

I placed my order online and the automated system said it would be 45-1hr long wait before i received my food but shortly after i submitted my order, i got a notification that it was in route to me!!! That made me happy! The food wasn't as hot as i would've like it, but it was delivered so i didn't expect too much. I put it in the oven before eating it and it was really good!!!! I'd def try it again! read more

Not fancy but family. Not pricey in my opinion because it's seafood. For all you get, it's pretty dang good. Fresh fried is all I have tasted. Not "overrrr"fried and rubbery. Catfish was awesome. Made 2 meals from one take out! That'll do it. Will return again. Thank you read more

Krab Kingz Memphis - Seafood Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Got to finally try this place for the first time today. Been hearing good things about them from others for a while now. After my first visit...I was not disappointed! First of all, walking in the aroma hits me. It makes me feel like I've walked into a little seafood shack down at the pier. The scents of seafood and spices hooked me right away. The gentleman behind the counter has to be one of the coolest and nicest guys I've met in a while. Supercool. His recommendation was spot on also. My wife and I decided to stay and eat, but the entire time we were there...people kept coming through ordering and picking up "to go" orders! I really hope these guys do well and stick around for years to come. It's refreshing to have a killer little spot to grab some crab and shrimp boil from. This area has been missing something like this for quite a while! read more

The hype was REAL! If you're on social media I'm pretty sure you've been seeing the Krab Kingz posts about coming to Memphis. To be honest I thought it was spam at first I about them being in Texas but I just couldn't see Memphis. Thank God I was wrong! As I've said more than a few times I'm a proud midtowner, I don't like to drive far. My s/o is always a good sport so we made the trek out to Bartlett(gasp) Great location, nice parking well lit. It's not the biggest location but I felt seating was pretty good for a small busy place. The staff was moving quickly but definitely on their job! We both ordered a #3 krab boil and I added a fried lobster tail. We left stuffed! They give good bang for your buck. They give you the seafood bibs but they look so goofy to me and really don't stop you from being covered in butter! They don't have crab crackers anymore because they grew legs and walked out... but that never stopped anybody from getting down with some crab legs. Money well spent and I'll see them again when they start Uber eats lol read more

Good food, service was great and the Atmosphere, was great. I will Certainly return when I am craving.

Tried the fired blue crab to see if I might like to revisit for a full lunch/dinner. It was delicious and seemed to be 2-4 crabs, not the one I expected. Price was about $5.50 with tax. Will definitely return for dinner with my wife. Note, this appears to be mainly takeout, as there are only a few tables - essentially no 'atmosphere'. read more

Krab Kingz is my fav seafood spot in Memphis! I recommend going way BEFORE closing but the service, food, & drinks are fye!

Absolutely great!!! Food was amazing, staff was friendly and helpful, place is charming and cozy! So happy I gave with place a try! I was on my way to another crab place when I drove by and stopped randomly, and so glad I did. I got the #2 and wow! Everything was cooked perfectly. Flavour was on point. I will definitely be back! Only critique I have at all for the place would be there are no crab leg crackers. I just moved to Memphis and don't have anything unpacked yet. So eating was a little bit of a challenge when I brought my leftovers home.(at the shrimp at the restaurant) read more

Krab Kingz Memphis - Seafood Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Absolute worst seafood experience I've ever had! I was excited to try them for the first time and given that I was purchasing what I thought would be a healthy option was totally the opposite. All of my platters were DROWNED in the butter sauce. I thought it was extremely odd that I placed my online order which indicted 35-40 minutes prep time. It wasn't even 15 minuted later that I received the order ready notification. It was exactly 10 minutes. I checked my order confirmation time against the order ready notification. Mind you my food was Luke warm upon arrival. Anyone knows that made to order boiled seafood is not ready that fast and packaged within that small window of time. Now I see how it was prepared that quickly.... they simply dumped all this sauce on top. I just wasted $108 because there is no way that I can consume this. read more

My sister and I are in town for a wedding. We were in the mood for seafood and saw the awesome reviews about this place. We ordered the #2 platter which included 2 snow crab clusters, 13 shrimp, an egg, sausage, and potatoes for $28.99. We added Cajun butter and this food was to die for! The food came in a to-go container but there was so much. It was ready in 5 min after we ordered. It was my sister's first time eating crab legs and she is hooked! This place is in Houston, TX and Memphis, TN. The owner wants to bring it to Miami, Orlando, and Atlanta. Love this place and highly recommend it! read more

I will never go back!! read more

Sit back and enjoy this review. I am a avid seafood lover and was SUPER excited about trying out this place while visiting Memphis. Food:I order a #3 (see menu) and a fried Lobster tail(my first time YAY). Total came out to about $52. I had lemon pepper and Cajun seasoning. SALTY! SALTY! SALTY! We were a party of 5, with also one TO GO order. 2/5 people had fried shrimp-SUPER SALTY. The rest of us had seafood boils. Mine wasnt the worst bc the cajun season helped balance it, but everyone with lemon peppers was a MSG horror. My fried lobster tail which was small for $14 was about 80% salt. the sausage was the BEST thing on my plate. We were going to let it GO, and just eat what we could and leave , but with the high level of disappointment with the food AND the customer service, we were HEATED at this point. Service: The girls who took the orders were young and clearly not well reversed in customer service. They were polite, but non nonchalant and seemingly unbothered by our complaints. Someone in our party spilled pop by the front entrance and we told them MULTIPLE times and no one came to clean it up for over 30+ minutes. I actually got up and cleaned it with some napkins, but it still was liquid everywhere. We had to keep telling people who entered to watch out. It wasnt until we spoke with a manager that she had to have one of them clean it up. (Can you imagine someone slipping and falling because of your lack of care, smh -LAWSUIT) Finally, after we had had enough, we asked for a manager, who asked us to meet her outside, which i thought was strange but I guess to keep other customers happy it makes sense. She was again, polite but not well versed in customer service or professionalism. She even stated that they are trying to get lemon pepper removed from the menu due to all the complaints -__- (i Cant ) Never did we get an apology for the experience, however she did ask what she could do to compensate. Only 1/5 of us had even put a dent in our meal, so we wanted some form of a refund. She left and said she would see what she could do, after about 10-15 minutes, she was leaving out the door and I had to stop her and ask what the outcome was, she was like oh they didnt help you guys out ... WHAT?! She took the receipts and then went to call the owner.. She then came back in after calling the owner to tell us that he said there's a no refund policy (we know, there's a sign on the table) but they could remake our food. I believe she knew that to begin with, so could have saved us so much waiting time and stated that in the beginning. The cook Marquez did come out with me a new fried lobster tail and stated he wanted to make us happy and remake all the food. HE was the BEST service that we had received throughout this entire experience. THANKS to him. They remade Everyones meals over ( we just didn't get a sauce on them but on the side) which we agreed was better than the 1st round, but still nothing to write home about. We all have had better. If you're not an avid seafood lover and just want the salty basics, you might like this place. Im not sure if Memphis just has a low threshold for quality seafood being that this place has 4 stars, but we were NOT impressed. Adjust your seasonings, change the batter consistently, PLEASE do some official customer service training with your staff and management teams. 2 stars- 1 (all the food was remade and we were able to keep the old food). Another star for the cook who came out to speak with us directly, and bc the portions size of the food and the sausage was good ) Im writing this with the hopes that you all can really improve and do better business. read more

This is my second time at Krab Kingz, but first time at this location on Stage. I strongly feel the same way the food as I did with my first experience, underwhelmed. I don't taste seasoned seafood albeit I see lots of paprika, but still unseasoned and underwhelmed. I do like that it's relatively affordable! The customer service is superb. I'm really a fan of how they provide everything from moist wipes, toothpicks, gloves, and a plastic handkerchief. The food is rather luke warm and the butter isn't buttery. I'm not sure why the butter is not a melted consistency. It's like a glob Type of consistency. I'm curious as to why the butter isn't melted I wanted to be sure I was giving this place a fair review. My search for really good seafood continues!! read more

Was hoping it would be better but just 3 stars for me. My friend and I went and ordered 2 separate meals. I ordered the surf & turf fries (philly steak & shrimp). The steak was salty and grainy maybe. It left a weird coating on my tongue which I didn't care for. My friend ordered #3 I believe. She said it was really flavorful. However, she mentioned the butter was too thick for her liking. It was closer to a creamy consistency than oily. Both were good portions in my opinion. The young ladies working were very pleasant and friendly. The place is clean with ample parking. I'm not a crab fan so I was just there to support. I may go back & try the fried shrimp. You have to give ur drivers license in exchange for metal crab crackers read more

I've tried Krab Kingz before but I must not have chose the right sauce. While visiting in-laws during the holidays, we went back and got Cajun garlic butter which was kind of spice but I loved it. We substituted more corn for the sausage. Since it was the holiday they were giving away popcorn and mimosas or sangria. The platter was plenty of food for two. I would go back. read more

On a Sunday night I was tryna figure out what I wanted to eat and I decided on seafood! So I took my butt to the car and jetted to Bartlett. It was packed in here and the people in front of me took so long to order but okay...so I ordered crab legs, shrimp all that and some fried blue crab (do not recommend, hard to eat for me at least/ain't no meat in it but it wasn't nasty) I got my food to go! Wait was bout 20-25 mins so I went to Krispy Kreme and came back (pitiful I know) but my food was ready when I got back. I get home and my food was looking delicious and delicious it was!! I tore it up and I had no complaints bout the $45 I spent. I'd definitely will be back to get some more. read more

Bartlett really needed a great seafood place, and this is it! The food is cooked perfectly! The shrimp were cooked, but not tough. The crab is spot on and you can tell they are freshly steamed and not sitting in water. The sausage was surprisingly very tasty! It's better than traditional store-bought sausage. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is because I asked for the butter on the side and it came on top. The employee did not offer to assist in correcting my order error, but justified the butter on top by saying that's the best way to eat it and the way "we" serve it. Unfortunately, not everyone wants their seafood covered in butter. Otherwise, great place! Just wish the customer service was better. Hopefully this is just growing pains. Defiantly try it out! read more

Today is my daughter's 18th birthday. She requested a seafood broil, so I took her to Krab Kingz. We ordered snow crabs, shrimp and sides for three totaling $63. Good deal. CSR was courteous. We were told about 15-30 minutes. We went to the car. Only a few minutes passed and I received the text it's ready. Too fast I thought. We live close by. So, it only takes maybe about 6 minutes to make it home. Setup the table, plate the food, bibs and gloves on... I crack open my 1st snow crab leg and it's very cold. I ask my daughters to crack theirs open and test it, the same, very cold. I'm livid. We're at the table, hungry and ready to eat. The presentation of the snow crabs and shrimp was nice, but it was not ready to eat. Only the sides were hot and ready. I'm highly disappointed that I had to figure out how to heat and warm up the snow crabs and shrimp without messing it up. It's annoying. Especially, when in the midst of celebrating a birthday on a time frame. It ruined the meal, moment and excitement. I'm not sure why this happened, but it's unprofessional. read more

I haven't eaten my food yet but the smell of butter and seafood smells has me in my feels right now. Now is the sitting arrangement kind of small yes which hopefully with people eating here more they will move to the old grand buffet building because this place is going to be off the rails when people find out about this place. Should you come here and try it out well if you don't want to pay for Red Lobster generics let try it out for damn sakes. read more
