My nephew brought food home from dinner and Mercy.....the catfish was seasoned to perfection! I pinched a piece before I popped it in the air fryer and bayyyybeeee, I was moaning the entire time!!!! Like WOW! It's hard to find really good catfish. You could tell the fish was fresh and nicely coated. While dining there they also had the oysters which were deemed amazing and hearty in size. Also said the service was quick and pleasant. She stated it's a little hole in the wall but a hidden gem. I will definitely have to check them out in action. read more

We were there the eve before the Big 12 Championship and had wanted seafood. Horrible service, the food was a D- and the iced tea might as well have been just tap water. Most of the staff we saw were on their phones and chatting with each other rather than serving customers. The people on either side of us weren't happy, either. I rarely ever leave a zero tip and there was no way I could leave even a penny after this horrid experience. read more

If you like seafood it is a good place to try. I personally don't like seafood and I tried the garlic parm chicken strips and they were honestly the best chicken strips I've had. The Cajun fries are very good too. Only thing is the service is not good. The workers will pretty much ignore you and not give you what you ask for unless you ask multiple times. They will sit around talking to each other without doing their job. The store itself is pretty nice and clean with a lot of tvs and there's a bar. read more

We've been here 4-5 times and this review is based on my last visit which was Oct 7, 2021. My best friends lucky because she lives so close to hear. We actually wanted to try out a different spot this time but after walking into a couple of other places near by and we were not really impressed so we decided to go back to where we know they have great crabs. They did not let us down. This day they were the best I've ever had! I'll speak for my friend as well because we kept talking about them for days afterwards! We got there at about 4:30pm and there were a few seats at the bar so we grabbed a couple and soon after the bar filled up. The bartender was friendly and made me a good couple of drinks throughout my time there and she got beer with hers. We both ordered snow crab and this place isn't cheap but it's totally worth it when you want to eat a delicious crab cooked to perfection! Out of my 5 visits here it was cooked to perfection every time so if yours isn't then I don't know what to tell you. You prob are just very unlucky or the cook didn't show up that day. Hopefully, they have more than one though because it's been cooked perfectly 5/5 times! I ordered 1 LB of snow crap, spicy Cajun with sausage, corn and potatoes! Do it if you like spicy get it hot! read more

I ordered the #2, it was awful for the amount of money I paid for it, I would never recommend it anyone, no flavor and under cooked.

Quite possibly the best crawfish you'll ever receive at a seafood boil spot in DFW when in season. With plenty of other menu gems like their grilled fish tacos, shrimp fried rice, fried catfish, signature cocktail drinks, etc... read more

Mr Crabs - Rockefeller Oysters were amazing! Beer was cold and cheap ! Great place ! - Seafood Near Me - Grand Prairie, Texas

I remember there was a time when this place was booming and packed no matter the day or time of day . I walked in the early afternoon and I was literally the only person in the place which I was excited about. My server seemed more interested in watching tik toks then serving me. I sat at my table for over 10 mins before she decided to walk over and get my order. After receiving my order the server never returned until after I was done with my meal, that annoyed me a little because I did want to order more. The food was good as usual , it just the ambiance of the restaurant felt all the way off. It Kinda made me feel like I should have gotten it Togo . Their the only place where I can get decent size clams which is what keeps me attending every Once in a while, otherwise I'd probably not come here anymore . I use to be a regular, and would be in there at least twice a week but after watching one of the servers pocket my bill money almost a year ago. I vowed to never come back again. I was in the area and really wanted some clams so decided to try my Luck. I paid for my meal with my card this time to avoid having my bill money stolen. I did like the fact if you're paying with a card you now have the option of paying for your meal from the table but scanning the QR code . I found that to be convenient. I gave 3 stars for the meal only . Service was uncomfortable. read more

My Mom wanted to eat here for her early Mother's Day dinner. The location had no wait time. We walked right in and were seated. The space was clean and not crowded. The waiter came within minutes of us sitting down. We ordered drinks and appetizers (hush puppies). We placed our meal order shortly thereafter and the food was delivered within 15 minutes. I ordered snow crab, shrimp, corn, potatoes, sausage, and boiled eggs- crab boil for 2 that I shared with my daughter. My Mom ordered the catfish basket with 2 pieces of catfish and fries. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals and had leftovers. The pricing was reasonable. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We enjoyed our dinner and will come back again. read more

This place was really good, a good spot to grab some po boys, oysters, or just a really good drink. I came here on a weekday, it wasn't that crowded, lots of parking spaces in the front, it is next to a dentist place.I came in and was immediately greeted, and sat down pretty quickly. The employees were wearing mask, and they had paper menus for you to look at.Menus are easy to read, and when we ordered we got our food out pretty quickly. The gator tails were really good, I love the fried oysters, they were big and juicy, really delicious. The oysters Rockefeller were really tasty, it took me so long to eat it so the cheese hardened, but it was still really good. Let's talk about their po boys! Packed with meat! Realty delicious!! Our waiter was really awesome, he was really fast with everything, and a really nice guy. There is a lot of things that are market price, so when you come in make sure you look at their board it will tell you the prices of the Seafood items on that day! read more

I went last night on my birthday march 6 2025 I normally don't leave reviews to hurt a person's business but this was a horrible experience I ordered a seafood boil and first they left off my shrimp out of the bag I mentioned it and the young brown skinned guy told me that I didn't order them so after he finally went back to get them I noticed when he got back my corn wasn't in the bag then he had to check to see if I ordered corn which he found out I did sooooooo long story short I just didn't pay for it and left read more

I walked in, wasn't greeted at all even knowing workers saw me and my mother just standing waiting to be seated. It wasn't until I went to a worker and asked "do I seat myself" the worker tells me yea, just grab a menu and sit wherever. Then, I sit down with my mom over 10 mins, nobody came to acknowledge us, not even say they would be right with us, nothing. No drinks no nothing! It was a TERRIBLE experience! My mother and I just got up and left. This was my first time at this place and don't ever plan on coming back. To completely ignore customers, not saying at least "I'll be right with you" is bad customer service. read more

What an amazing Saturday out with my girl for our late anniversary dinner. We ordered the combo #3 with is Snow crab , King crab, sausage, 2 corn and 3 potatoes... medium Sloppy which is the house special sauce . We added and extra pound of crab and spicy sauce and garlic butter on the side. It was my first time having King Crab and it was just amazing it's not as sweet and has more texture than snow crab. It was cooked perfect and all the yummy crab goodness just slid right out of the shell. Johnathan was perfect he was very nice and helpful throughout all my random questions and never missed a beat. He seemed like a good young man and I always respect that for the younger generation. My only complaint is the music was super loud and only one Genre seemed to be playing which I liked the music but a bit loud for my taste. Plus not everyone likes the same music. Dang... I didn't get pics of the food... So I'll have to come back very soon. Lol Definitely recommend this place for dinner or watching a game, 13 TV's and a projection screen. Safety precautions are all followed except one man I saw not wearing a masks that worked here. read more

Met up with some friends for a birthday dinner and it was pretty cool. I tried the catfish basket and I also had a boil bag with an egg, sausage, and shrimp. The catfish was some of the best I've tasted. It was REAL catfish and seasoned to perfection and back. The shrimp was shrimp. It was good but nothing to really write home about. The sausage was definitely Eckrich, not andouille or anything close to it. Maybe they ran out and had to run to Kroger to get sausage, but it was a tad saltier than I would have liked. Definitely going back for the catfish though. Oh, and the waiter was cute and muscular with nice . read more

Went to give it a try for the first time while visiting home. I ordered the seafood boil with crawfish and shrimp. It was good with the house sauce but I ordered it medium. It was a bit spicy. So you might want to go down on the heat level. It was good and the service was great for suggesting what to order for pickup. read more

It was our first time going and of course a little hesitant but surprised. We order oysters -- delicious, gator bites -- surprised by how good they were and crab cake -- real crab meat , would have liked it plump instead of flat but not a deal breaker. I wanted the platter with fish , shrimp and fried oysters but they were out of fried oysters but brought regular oysters, which was confusing. We will be back to try the crawfish read more

The catfish here is good however, the servcice is not. Employee Sanai who answers the phone is very rude and costs this establishment to lose business by having terrible customer service skills and an attitude as if you slept with her man or did something personal to her. After taking my order and asking "is that it?", she then hangs up in your face before telling you how long your meal is going to take or saying anything. I nearly thought the phone got disconnected because I was not expecting her to not finalize the call with a salutation like a thank you and "your food will be ready in 30 minutes" for example. I actually called right back and told her to cancel my order because I did not want to be served food from a person that rude because there is no telling what she will do, such as taint the food of customers who are simply patronizing the business that pays her pay check. Put Sanai in the back on fries and not customer facing! Aint nobody got time for all that attitude and rudeness! read more

The crawfish boil they offer is pretty good. Seasoning is good and portions are large.

Highly recommend this place! What really makes a great seafood joint is nailing the sauce and freshness of the seafood. The sloppy Mr. Crabs house sauce is great - very good balance of spice, acidity, and flavors. We had the sausage and corn mixed with it too. Definitely filled my crawfish cravings and looking forward to be back. Ally who was the bartender definitely delivered on the drinks and had tremendous service! read more

I've visited this place twice in the past month, and I must say both times I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Ma taste buds were dancin' and my booty was wiggling in my seat! Oh happy day! The sloppy sauce is just that, Sloppy! The blended flavors of the sauce was so well balanced and delicious. The cajun fries are most def worth a try. I had the shrimp, snow crab, with corn, potatoes and sausage. read more

My experience here was wonderful!!!! It was a little slow when I came which what can you expect from a Tuesday morning crowd? However, I thought that was a good time to go because the cook in the back definitely was paying attention to the cooking everything which turned out to be SO GOOD! My boyfriend and I ordered the fried Mac & cheese eggrolls which had ham and other veggies in there which the flavor was very good. As the main entree, we ordered combo #1 which included 1lb crawfish, 1lb shrimp, 1lb clams, 1/2 sausage, 2 corns, & 3 potatoes for $38.99! It was a good deal to me between me and my boyfriend we finished it all but were stuffed! I definitely would recommend this place a lot. The server girls were SO SWEET & COOL and the restaurant was very clean considering they just opened last summer. read more

For boils in the area this place I think has one of the best if not the best signature sauce flavor. I realized it was because Mr Crab's sauce reminded me of the Hot & Juicy chain. The spicy level is also one that I don't think burns the mouth the most but it burns my fingers so I'm guessing is spicier than most other places. The only thing is most of the time they over cook the crab but the shrimp and crawfish are usually cooked well. Just a bummer since the crawfish is all frozen but is expected since it is out of season. You can substitute the crawfish in the combos for half a pound of shrimp but I feel as though they don't really give you the half a pound extra (or maybe the crawfish just take up a lot more room and it seems to be more). Their shrimp sometimes has a lot of poop and sometimes doesn't. Overall it is just too variable and the amounts of times I get over-cooked snow crab has been more than I wanted. It used to be my fav spot until twice in a row I had over cooked crab and my friends that went there in separate occasions also told me their crab was overcooked after I recommended this spot. Also last time I ordered I asked for shrimp sub instead of crawfish then called back right away to change it back to crawfish and even though they confirmed I still got all shrimp and over cooked crab. So I'm kind of done with this place and Red Claws is now my new to-go spot. Was borderline but I'm being nice & still giving them the 4 stars just because I really really like their sauce. However, the seafood just needs to be better quality and cooked better to be deemed the 5 star worthy. If there was a hot n juicy in Texas it would def drop to a 3 stars. read more

Dined with 25 people in the large room and our service was great! I ordered the Crab cake 10/10 Fried oysters 10/10 Fried catfish 10/10 Cajun Parmesan fries 10/10 1lb garlic butter head off shrimp 7/10 (Shrimp were way overcooked and sauce was watery) 1lb Cajun head off shrimp medium spice 7/10 (Shrimp were way overcooked but sauce was amazing) Mac and cheese egg rolls 10/10? (Don't eat pork and they have bacon but my family seemed pleased) Long Island iced tea 10/10 I'm definitely coming back but will ask them not to boil my shrimp to hell and to please devein them. read more

Omg!! There's a new seafood place in town. I had my eyes on them since they broke ground. Wow!! They're finally open, but wait let's wait until the crowd calm down first then I will give Mr. Crab a try. I've been craving for crawfish since the end of the crawfish season and I found out that they're still serving fresh crawfish so great I've been wanting to give it a try. As we walk in we were promptly sat down and given our menu. The smell of the cajun aroma made my mouth drool and can't wait to feast my cravings away. Our waitress came and we ordered fried okra, fried mozzarella cheese stick, mac & cheese eggrolls, fried catfish basket, seafood sampler boil (consist of crabs, crawfish, clams, shrimps, corn, potatoes and sliced sausages). Wait!! To satisfy my cravings let's add 5 additional lbs of crawfish on top of that... make sure it's spicy all the way . We ask our waitress to make sure the crawfish was fresh because they were charging $10.95/lb which I didn't mind paying for fresh crawfish. The waitress walked out of the kitchen with baskets in her hands.. Wow!!! I can't wait to give it a try. Fried okras and fried mozzarella cheese sticks tasted like every other place I've been. The Mac & cheese eggrolls were a bit different. It tasted ok. Fried catfish was good, so that earn Mr. Crab an additional star... Oh!!! She's bringing us our seafood!! I can't wait to put my fingers onto those crawfish to satisfy my cravings. I ate the first crawfish it had a weird taste to this... this isn't fresh crawfish is it? I questioned myself. I ate the second one still taste the same like dead or frozen crawfish. Ok wait a minute she told me it was fresh and I had to ask her again. She told me that it was fresh and that they get fresh crawfish delivered every AM. I did tell her that I didn't like the taste of it and it doesn't taste fresh. I ask her if she can take it to the kitchen, she then tells me that the owner will come out to speak to me. Minutes later I saw him walking out towards the bar. He was asking her something and she pointed towards my direction. I sat there trying to finish my fried catfish but the disgusting dead crawfish taste was lingering in mouth. He then walked back into the kitchen and he did that several times. According to my observation customer service is pretty much horrible. Crawfish horrible, charging people $10.95/lb for dead or frozen crawfish.. Not Coming Back nor recommending this place to anyone!!! read more

Now ROSE from MR CRABS is stating the lady doesn't work there but she mentioned what I wrote on the back of my receipt (every word) so SHE DOES work there. Maybe I should screen shot the picture I took and post it along with the message VENESSA sent to me and everyone will see that it's the exact same thing. The professional thing for a buss to do is just apologize for the experience. Not go back and forth on Yelp. And I've never had the crawfish. I'm just reading what's on the other yelp reviews. Geesh! Did you guys follow up and send them nasty messages as well for stating that your crawfish was either frozen or dead?? I don't give a bad review unless the experience is bad. Please review my Yelp. ‍ UNPROFESSIONAL VENESSA S. And to add insult to injury I just received a private message from Venessa S. Who used foul language and also let me know she was working in the restaurant that night. I'm totally offended by the tone of her message. I couldn't respond back to her directly because she blocked me. Who does that? I would think a respectful owner, manager, or even worker would not write a customer a message cursing at them. This only confirms why I'll never go back to this place. And I will let everyone know about my experience via online (I'm a food blogger for DFW) and all of social media. However, i just hope they stop selling dead or frozen crawfish. That's not a good look if you plan to stay open. And please stop having your friends and family post reviews for you. PEOPLE PLEASE SCROLL all the way down and read the REAL REVIEWS!!! read more

This was our first time coming here and we would come back. Our waitress (Michelle) was very nice. The food was very flavorful. They were short staffed so orders did take a little longer to come out. Overall, it's was good and I would eat here again. ******* Went again last night and we enjoyed our food. We ordered the shrimp & clam boil. We've been doing to all of the new crab shacks that popped up in the Arlington/Grand Prairie area and I think this one is our new favorite. The staff : Our drinks stayed full, our server was friendly and suggested items we should try. The restaurant : Is clean, the bathrooms were clean. Happy hour specials on drinks is pretty decent Most important--The food: I've tried the crab, shrimp, and crawfish. The food had been very good. I love their "sloppy" seasoning the best. Out of the other crab shacks, I like their spice blend better than the other places. Get a little extra on the side! Price : Average for a crab shack. Not overly priced like the competition near by. Check them out read more

We originally were planning on going to Crab Station but they didnt open until 12PM so we decided to give this place a try since it was opened at 11AM. To be honest I did have high expectations for this place so I only ordered a pound of crawfish and cajun fries but the crawfish had really good flavors and it was a lot better then I thought. I would like to come back and try the shrimp and clams next time. read more
