    I stumbled upon this chicken joint after a local insider raved about it, claiming it served up the most finger-licking fried chicken in town. Being just a stone's throw away, I couldn't resist putting their claim to the test. Located on the east side of US one, right smack in the east-northeast of the curve, this joint caught my eye with its former KFC/Burger King/Taco Bell vibes. Not a car in sight at the drive-through, though, so who knows if they even have one? Stepping inside, I was greeted by a bustling crowd of about eight people waiting in line. Part of me considered bailing, but the tantalizing aroma of the chicken kept me rooted. The service was a mix of sluggishness and swiftness, probably because they had to whip up a fresh batch of chicken. When my turn finally came, it took less than two minutes to place my order and get my grub. Can't say that's slow; it was practically lightning-fast. One thing I noticed is that they do a roaring takeout business, more than dine-in. The joint itself has seen better days, but what about the food? I opted for the three-piece meal, featuring a succulent breast, a tantalizing thigh, and a scrumptious chicken wing. I also went for the classic combo of baked beans and mashed potatoes with gravy as my sides. First up was the thigh. With just one bite, my taste buds went wild with sheer deliciousness. It was piping hot, incredibly moist, and bursting with flavor. After polishing it off, I seriously contemplated ordering another ten. Next on the menu was the chicken wing. I wouldn't say this is the place to go for wings, but they were decent enough. And then it was time for the grand finale: the breast. Ah, there's nothing quite like sinking your teeth into a plump, juicy breast. As I reached for it, though, it was so scorching hot that it singed my fingers. But the moment I sank my teeth into it, my mouth was flooded with an explosion of savory juices. It remained juicy and piping hot till the very last bite. These breasts were no small fry; they were delightfully plump. The breading on the chicken was crispy and delectable, but as with any fried chicken, it left behind a bit of greasy residue. I must say, they outshine KFC, Popeyes, and any other fast food chicken joint. So, would I recommend you give it a go? Absolutely, but be prepared to exercise some patience.

    Two breasts and two sides.

    It had been over 30 years since I have eaten at Maryland fried Chicken, but that drought was about to end. Is the chicken as good as I remember it? Did they fool with the recipe? Will I be sadly disappointed at the fowl of my youth? I was not. I ordered the two breast with two sides meal and tore that up like I had not eaten in a week. The chicken was juicy. The skin was crispy. It was everything I had remembered it to be. In a world of unending change, it seems, it's amazing what food can do for the soul. No masks required but are encouraged. Stay safe.

    menu! delicious chicken and i love the okra the ladies at the counter are always so pretty and nice

    love the chicken and the sides! i got okra and fried rice the ladies are very sweet and it can take some time to get your food so you gotta be a little patient.

    So, once again I ordered a leg and a breast 2 pc chicken dinner today. After waiting inline and watching the lazy, slow, staff take and prepare orders, it's no surprise that I get a thigh and a breast..... don't know why I even go here anymore. Shame on whoever is managing this place for not lighting a fire under you employers asses...

    The chicken is very tender and moist. I have tried most of their sides and they are all good. You can't beat them for a great meal.

    *INITIAL REVIEW*…read more Today, my family and I celebrated Mother's Day given the fact one of my sisters and I would be too busy to celebrate it on the actual day. Ergo, we made a trip down to Vero Beach and had fun at both McKee Botanical Gardens and the Vero Beach Museum of Art (VBMA), both which got stellar reviews by me in the past. In between both locales, we were hungry and needed to eat someplace local. I had some suggestions, but my mom was in the mood for seafood. As a suggestion from reviews, The Crab Stop of Vero Beach was ultimately decided upon. I have to say, I am happy this restaurant was suggested because it is very good. Even though an address is provided, The Crab Spot of Vero Beach (which I will shorthand simply to Crab Spot for the remainder of this review) is located on the southside of the entryway into Royal Palm Place, one of the many extensions leading out into the water near US-1, but this one is known for the Royal Palm Park at the end. Initial display, decor, and ambiance has the stereotypical local dive bar look with elements showcasing they specialize in seafood, and the little bits of rustic flaws adds a bit of character for what they are. I would not expect such a look for a high-end restaurant, but this works for a local place on the river. The chairs squeeked, the table wobbled a bit in which the waitress fixed with some coasters, and the plates were chipped. No problem at all. There was even outdoor seating in the back bar-style which gives you a nice view of the canal that leads to the river. It was high sun, so we opted for the air conditioning. Now we move on to the food. I have to say that the majority of our food was really good, and when you adjusted to what you are eating, it was top-notch. Key word, however, is the "majority." The good: the hush puppies basket as you get 10 hush puppies that are lightly-seasoned with 1000 island sauce. If you eat one, it is probable you might think it is light on seasoning. However, they are small and finishing all 10 won't be a problem. The flavor builds with each hush puppy, which was smartly done compared to what most seafood places do: give you like two to five hush puppies of large size and high flavoring. The wings, however, used a hot sauce that was mostly vinegar. This ruined the wings for me, and if my stepdad ordered 20, he'd be eating the majority of them. Everything else was top-notch and delicious. Altogether, my family ordered the Fish and Chips, Mahi Sandwich, Fried Catfish Sandwich, Sea Scallop Snack Pack, and the Crab Cake Dinner. Details for each dish in the pictures. On a sidenote, the restroom was okay as in clean and stocked, but not the best-looking restroom I seen. Maybe the "character" could have not be extended to the restroom. Ultimately, I am giving Crab Stop four out of five stars. I do enjoy a good "mom n' pop" place as I prefer to support local and small, but since this is the only time I went, I can't justify a five-star rating until they prove to be consistent. I will be back as there is another park just south of this business that has geocaches that need to be found AND I may also try to hide a traditional letterbox here. But take note for a local seafood stop, this place is good to go.

    Drove all the way to the restaurant to be told they are out of Crab, Clams, Mussels, oysters! Fried…read moreclam strips and fish were options. How does a Crab/seafood place run out of everything. Poor management if they can't keep the main menu items in stock. Based on some other reviews, this is a common occurrence. We left without even sitting down.

    4.5!! We really…read moreenjoyed. After taking in a Sunday matinee movie..while we were in Vero....we wanted to visit American Icon. I don't super recall having one of their beers at the Stuart beer festival, so I was excited about 'retrying' it. First, the building is awesome. Read the history on it, but also hard to ignore the giant generator that the beer comes out of it....super cool visual. I like the vibe of the place overall, and the patio seemed really nice but since it was our first visit I wanted to take the inside 'all in', and glad we did. Ok..the beers.... Flight: 6 5 oz pours for $15. Reasonable enough.. We started here just to see what pint we each wanted: *Freedom Tourch Stout: I loved it. *Hazy IPA *Double Vision IPA: Really enjoyed it; just amped up the hazy a bit. *Hef: Decent (not a super fan of hef, but wanted to sample) *Lager: Decent, it's a lager: * Icon IPA I ended up with an Icon IPA as my pint, enjoyed! Ok..the food * We split 10 wings for $16. Naked with nashville hot and blue cheese on teh side. Really enjoyed, meaty. * We also split a burger..the fun guy (funghi). We upgraded to sweet potato fries. I thought it was delicious, and the swp instead of marshmallow fluff had a maybe sweet cream cheese dip (i don't care it was delicious!) :) Now they were out of a few beers that was my first pick (including the Saison) but I guess it was others picks too..hence why they were out! Definitely want to go back!
