    When do they have live music ? Do I have to call and reserve a table for a birthday dinner?

    They have live music after 5 pm Friday night and Saturday night. I was told mariachi plays for Sunday brunch. They take reservations for party's of 6 and more. Also the stage is really close to the tables so I might be loud for some people.

    Friday imitador from 7pm to 9 pm Saturday norteño from 5 to 11pm

Small restaurant but great flavors!

    Extremely Disappointing Experience at Crab IslandUnfortunately, our experience at Crab Island was…read moreone of the worst dining experiences we've ever had. This was supposed to be a special day as we were celebrating our 8th anniversary on our way to Glen Ivy Spa. We were looking forward to a nice boiling crab dinner, but the entire evening was ruined from the start. We were told we could walk in and sit anywhere, only to be told the available seating was reserved. Our server appeared very inexperienced and struggled with basic menu questions, orders, drinks, and customer service. Our sodas took about 10 minutes and were flat and overly syrupy. We were also told that if we were to order sushi, it could only be from the front page of a four page sushi menu. The seafood boil was extremely disappointing. The seasoning was overwhelmingly garlicky rather than the lemon-pepper flavor we requested. The shrimp were mushy, the crab legs were unusually small and difficult to open, and the sausage and other ingredients tasted old and overcooked. Service continued to be a major issue. We had to repeatedly ask for utensils, napkins, and crackers, but instead of getting what we asked for, we were handed scissors. The restaurant was nearly empty when we arrived, yet we were frequently ignored while the server focused on phone and new walk-in orders. We also had to beg for basic items like water and butter. The lemon pepper seasoning we asked for were a couple lemon wedges with a teaspoon of salt and pepper in a small plastic to go container. The most concerning part was the restroom situation. The women's restroom was being worked on, so my fiancé was directed to use the men's restroom, where she nearly stepped in human waste on the floor. We quietly informed the staff, who seemed to address it, but the entire situation was extremely unsanitary. At the end, we waited again for our check and discovered we had been charged $5 for a small side of butter that had taken approximately 20 minutes to arrive. When we politely questioned the charge, the situation became uncomfortable, with the owner and another employee coming out to discuss it rather than simply resolving the issue. We remained respectful throughout the entire experience because we understand what it's like to work in the service industry. Unfortunately, the food, cleanliness, service, and overall experience were simply unacceptable. We even felt sick afterward.We have never left a zero tip before, but this was the first time we genuinely felt the service warranted it. Not sure if this place changed owners, but the reviews went from good to horrible, and we are not the only ones with bad food experiences. We are still paying for it, our stomachs have been sour from the food, into the next day, which ruined our Glen Ivy spa day for our anniversary. Do your mind and body and favor a don't not go! Sadly, we cannot recommend this restaurant. For us, it was less "Crab Island" and more "Crap Island."
