I came here today to eat lunch with my friends and attempted to order the two for one special. As I ordered, I emphasize, I would like the two for one special for the martini the service provider who was the heavyset light skin guy brought me my drink. Which I then asked if he could bring my second drink he then proceeded to tell me that the martinis were not included in the two for one special. I emphasize how I was unaware and I would like the two for one special with whatever drink I could get pineapple flavor. He emphasized there are no returns and I would need to order a completely new drink. After I told him that was unfair due to me, not knowing that prior to ordering my drink, I will not be paying for something that I did not consume after I was under the impression that I was getting something else. Then caught a very nasty attitude and in fact, his negative energy infected me I could no longer spend the $70 that I wanted to spend on rocking today. Granted the Asian lady was pretty helpful in this situation. I had a horrible experience today.it read more

I ordered the combination A: As far as price I thought it was reasonable. I got My Oder to go. The Garlic butter mild seasoning had just the right amount of hot tangy taste for me. I recommend depending on your spice level I would start at mild before getting the spice level increased. Location was decent parking adequate. I recommend if you like crabs. read more

Rocking Crab - Crabs corn shrimp potato and sausage. - Seafood Near Me - TEMPLE TERR, Florida

This is such a great change for our family tradition of having a crab boil. Being able to just sit and enjoy without running around, cleaning after others was such a relief. The waitress was able to ensure our party of 15 was taken care of and made sure everything needed was provided. This hit my crab craving and gave our family something new to look forward to. The steamed oysters with the sauce was great and sopping the sauce with saltines was the popper. The kids meal came with a small cluster of snow crab and about 8 extra large shrimp. The Friday-Saturday special came with 2 corn and 2 potatoes, 1/2 pound cleaned blue crabs and snow crab with a 6oz lobster tail. Oh la la so good. The place was clean organized and the ambiance was perfect for all ages. read more

Delicious food and great service. Olivia behind the bar was awesome - super attentive and gave the best suggestions

This placed is loud and ghetto, the staff is very unprofessional. the owner has the nerve to want to bar you from her restaurant, because of your honest opinion. which is everyone right to feel how they feel and be able to speak it. its call freedom of speech and choice. be careful what you say while you're dining you may get barred from the placed . read more

Review: Avoid the Rocking Crab on 56 in Temple Terrace I want to share my horrifying experience at the Rocking Crab on 56th in Temple Terrace. Last night, my cousin, three friends, and I (five of us total) decided to visit for happy hour because we've enjoyed their food in the past. However, the night turned into an absolute nightmare. When we entered, we were greeted--not by a staff member--but by a man named Bill, dressed in a mechanic's uniform that said Boulevard Tire Center with the title "Roadside Assistance Agent." He stood behind the host stand, asking how many people were in our party. Naturally, we were confused and laughed, thinking it was a joke. One of my friends asked, "You don't work here, so why are you behind the booth?" He insisted he did, but we waited several minutes for an actual employee. Finally, the manager, an Asian woman named Jenn, came to the front and confirmed that Bill would seat us. Reluctantly, we followed him to the table. After we sat, our actual server arrived, and we asked if Bill worked there. The waiter told us, "No, he's just a regular who they let do whatever he wants." This was already bizarre, but things only got worse. During our meal, Bill came over to our table, initially joking around, but then made offensive and inappropriate comments. He told one of my friends that he enjoyed watching women "suck meat out of crab legs." He then directed derogatory comments at my cousin, calling her a "carpet muncher" because she had a hoodie on and her hair wasn't done. He also insinuated that my cousin and I were in a romantic relationship, making crude remarks about her "eating my private parts." We were appalled and told him to stop and leave us alone, but he kept apologizing in a backhanded way, repeatedly calling her a lesbian. One of my friends eventually had to tell him to go away, which he briefly did, but he soon returned, saying he would leave us alone because my friend "threatened to fight him." The chaos continued, and at no point did any staff member check on us. Bill answered the restaurant's business phone and took orders, acting as if he worked there. When we finally reported the situation to Jenn, the manager, she offered a half-hearted apology and didn't seem to care. Instead of addressing the issue professionally, she tapped Bill on the back of the head at the bar and pointed to our table, making the situation even worse. Bill became enraged, stormed over to us, and started yelling, demanding to know "who told on him." Bill then began shouting that he wanted to fight someone if we didn't tell him who had spoken to Jenn. This man, who does not even work there, stood over us--five small women--yelling aggressively and unbuttoning his shirt as if he was preparing to physically fight. We were absolutely terrified and feared for our lives. At this point, we grabbed our things and left. We couldn't even finish our food or get it boxed up because of how unsafe we felt. As we exited, Bill followed us outside, yelling and demanding to know if we were going to pay our tab. Again, where was the management? Jenn looked terrified but did nothing to de-escalate the situation. This experience was beyond unacceptable. Allowing a random customer like Bill to act as staff, harass diners, and then threaten violence is outrageous. Jenn's inability to control the situation and failure to protect her customers were inexcusable. I don't feel safe ever returning to the Rocking Crab, and I would never recommend it to anyone. The food was fine, but that hardly matters when you fear for your safety. Save yourself the trouble and go elsewhere. read more

Did not care for my food! Too much sauce n seasoning takes away from the fresh taste of seafood,

I loved this place. I just ordered a pound of crawfish and two draft beers. Less than 15$. Crawfish were excellent and service was very good. If you love c fish. Try it, you won't regret. read more

This was my first time coming here and the food was solid for the most part. The fried tilapia was fried to perfection and it was good. The cajun fries were amazing. A little spicy but that's kind of the point. As for the cheese sticks, they were just okay. I will definitely go back read more

Very poor customer service Facebook post advertisement says Happy hour Monday thru Friday 3pm-7pm and I also got verbal communication from the waitress that drinks where half off then the bill comes and someone who's not the owner argued with me that I was incorrect when the waiter offer the happy hour special...definitely won't be back since someone of no management skills or customer training wants to argue about $5 that's not there money. Rating is actually negative zero read more

Was not impressed. Took out a lunch special and realized at home that the corn was missing! Everything is triple wrapped in plastic, way too much packaging. Shrimp tasted ok but the sauce was super greasy, even the mild is quite spicy. read more
