    Famous lemonade
    Hannah M.

    Wow wow wow! I cannot recommend this place enough. You wouldn't know it just by looking at the outside, but this has got to be the best crab boil in the St. Pete area - there's quality AND quantity in every order. Fifteen years strong, this location has been providing crazy good flavor in multiple Tampa Bay/St. Pete locations. This location in particular has more parking than space inside. It made it easy to get a spot in line right away, and there was two fans keeping us cool. The couple running everything also happened to be from my mom's home country - so cool! Someone else recommended getting their "famous lemonade" for $1.99, and let me tell you, it's the BEST lemonade I've ever had. DON'T skip out. After some intense deliberation, my mom and decide to go with combo #11: 2 Snow Crabs 12 Shrimp 6 Sausages 12 Mussels 3 Corn 8 Potatoes For $41.99 First of all, what a steal! I only got medium spice, but whatever is in their garlic sauce made everything taste out of this world, even after a fifteen minute drive home with the takeout container. While we wanted to finish everything, the potatoes got the best of us at the end. Some side notes: you can't sit down to eat here, and there definitely isn't the staff capacity to cater to large groups on a walk-in basis. The menu is a little hard to fully grasp upon first site because of how many options there are and how spread out it is across the wall, but take your time and find the combo that's perfect for you!

    I am SO loyal to Krispy Krab. Since I moved back here after school, this is the only place I will go to get seafood trays. There's a lot of crab places in St. Pete, but the others don't compare. Krispy Krab by far has the best garlic sauce/crab juice flavor. I'm not a person who's huge on spice, but there's just enough kick in their mild sauce that makes it perfect. Not too much, not too little. They have the option to get your order spicy as well. Now it's not any kind of fancy establishment. Expect your typical crab shack setup, but it is pretty quaint in there. If you're there at a busier time, like the weekend, and there's a line, you will be standing outside. I have gone around 5/6pm on weekdays and haven't had to wait long. Prices and portions are reasonable. Rarely do I ever actually get crabs (I typically get what's pictured), but when I do, those are great too.

    This is the #1 with garlic blue crabs, potatoes, shrimp, corn and sausage.

    I'm from Georgia and love to get seafood while on vacay. Stopped at the Krispy Krab to get their infamous blue crabs. The place is small so as soon as you enter you're at the counter to order. There were many people inside so it was kinda hot, there is no organized ordering process so we asked one another if they had placed their order to make sure we weren't jumping the line. Placed my order for a #1, paid and sat in my car until I thought it was ready, wasn't told a specific time. Food- if you like spicy garlicky this is for you, it wasn't bad but I prefer garlicky, buttery and lemony. There was a lot to eat and I was able to share with my husband. Again, it wasn't bad so I'm pondering a revisit.

    I love a good hole-in-the-wall restaurant and I was super excited to try this place as I usually am pretty loyal to Crafty Crab. Unfortunately won't be coming back. The quality of the crab and shrimp was so poor I didn't have much desire to finish it all. The sauce is okay -- it's extremely acidic with lack of salt to balance it out. Prices were cheap which drew us there, but was very eh overall.

    Spicy shrimp with potatoes, Boiled peanuts, corn bites and crab cakes (lemonade to wash it all down not posted:)

    So delicious!!! Everything was fresh, hot, and fast. Regular customers were friendly and helped me with suggestions of their favorites since it was my first time. The woman that took my order, possibly the owner was sweet and took care in her food. Hidden local gem. 100 percent will be back.

    Crab cakes and hush puppies
    Laura W.

    The owner (?) is super friendly and kind. I just really wish the food was better. The sauce on the seafood and broccoli is just SO SO salty and the spices in it just were kind of strange together. The crab cakes and hush puppies were okay but I would not order them again.

    1. Combo - 1 Snow Crab, 12 Shrimps, 6 Sausages, 4 Potatoes, 2 Corns
    G G.

    What a shame, I enjoyed the food but despite asking the owner it was too spicy for my wife and the potatoes where really hot. I couldn't eat them. The owner said "not spicy" I wish they could hold the spice and just give garlic butter. There is another popular place seafood place that will just give garlic butter. Best we stick to them.

Their whole fried snapper is one of our favorite fish, and Hookin' serves a generous serving, perfectly tender and sweet, in a light crispy layer of coating, on a regular soft bun, with lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Their Fried Wahoo is also well-prepared. We got fried, and it was tender and fresh. Both fish came with a heaping serving of hot crispy fries. You could also get either fish blackened, and you could add various veggies as sides. We ordered our food and also picked it up ourselves at the bar. Hookin' can get crowded, especially when they have a live musician, and parking can get pretty tight. It's just off I-275 at 22nd St, in St. Pete Fl east of Gulfport. They keep their social media pretty up-to-date, but we didn't track down a "regular" webpage.

The restaurant keeps things simple, offering each fish prepared in only three different styles. Tedie chose the "Florida Man" preparation (broiled), while I selected the "Dirté."(fried) The fish appeared to be either red or gag grouper. Interestingly, she preferred mine, while I found myself enjoying hers a bit more. The cucumber spaghetti side was refreshing, though I think it could benefit from a bolder flavor profile. It's something I'll likely recreate at home with a bit more seasoning. The Cajun fries were well-executed and made for a satisfying accompaniment. Overall, I'm glad we gave this place a try and would recommend it to others. In terms of value for the money, I'd rate it a solid 7 out of 10.

The food and drinks are worth trying, but the portions and service could definitely use some improvement.
