Lots of flavor and very juicy. The patty needed a little salt but otherwise it was good. The sweet potato fries stole the prize though. Man are the spectacular. Perfectly cooked and seasoned to perfection with just a little salt. The atmosphere is good. Very casual. It's not full service so if you run out of your favorite soft drink, then that's on you! It is free refills. So get up and go get more. I'd definitely recommend this place. I believe the chicken tenders are better than the burger, but the burger isn't anything to sneeze at either.

Not only was the food great but I just love the setting of this place. There is a small film area, lots of board games to have a cute board game night and even a backyard with live music!! As for food, I got the truffled grapes and a bahn mi with a side salad. All items were tasty and I felt very healthy after that meal!! The sauces/dressings they use are so tasty and really elevate the sandwich/salad. I wish they added a little more honestly! My only issues with this restaurant are they run out of some sides very quickly. My friends and I went at peak dinner time (5/6pm) and they didn't have a lot of sides left! I was really looking forward to trying the fries but I guess that means I just have to go back again! My other comment is the price. I spent roughly $12 for the sandwich and $6 for the grapes. As good as they were, the portion size for the price was a little bit unequal. I was still hungry after :( However, I do still highly recommend this place and would definitely want to go back (especially when they got a movie play!)

That personal connection aside, Crabby's delivers an experience that feels both elevated and welcoming. It does lean towards being a bit more expensive, but the quality of the food and the care in presentation make it worth the splurge. I ordered the gnocchi marsala with chicken, and it was nothing short of heavenly. Pillowy gnocchi paired with a rich, savory sauce that lingered beautifully. Mrs. K. chose the salmon pancetta, which arrived as a work of art on the plate, perfectly cooked and elegantly presented. She enjoyed it very much, savoring each bite. And of course, we couldn't resist ending the evening with a crème brûlée: creamy, infused with vanilla, and topped with that satisfying caramelized crust that cracks just right under the spoon. Crabby's is the kind of place where you go not just to eat, but to celebrate, to linger, and to enjoy the finer side of dining in Joplin. It's polished without being pretentious.

Paired them with fries and their fries were super tight too. I am a pretty good eater and I got 5 wings and fries and that was a good sized meal. I was full but not stuffed. Service was great! Waitress was around checking on us and they had a dual wait staff to make sure we had someone always checking on us. The place is wide open inside and has a sports bar feel on one side and the other side is more dining room feeling. We had TVs to watch all the live games.

Had a group of people doing their fantasy draft and seemed like there was plenty of room to do that. Our server Cassandra came over, helped us with all the beers on tap and answered menu questions for us. Decided to order the 5 piece garlic parm and a 5 piece suicide sauce. Note that you cannot order two sauces with the 10 piece, you have to order two 5 piece orders. The prices for a 5 piece seem a bit high at $8.50 though. Wings came out very quick and were cook pretty close to how I like them. The skin wasn't too crispy, was just right. The meat easily came off the bone. I appreciated the amount of actual parm that came on the garlic parm, but I was missing that garlic punch to complement it. If you're looking for heat, maybe ask for an extra side of suicide sauce. I didn't find it to be much hotter than a typical buffalo style sauce. Having said that, the flavor of the sauce was tasty and I would 10/10 recommend for flavor, but lower your heat expectations.
