Shrimp platter
Vincent L.

Start of with charbroiled oyster. You can get it 3 ways. Oyster is not 100% fresh but it is 150 mile from the coast. It doesn't taste fishy so it pass. Chef did a good job grilling the oyster, good flavor with the garlic and parmesan. Prices are pretty good. $25 for 12 so about $2/ oyster. Fried catfish and shrimp is excellent. Catfish is well seasoned and very crunchy. Good portion. Hush puppies are very crunchy on the outside too. The fish and hush puppies are still crunchy even you order to go. The red bean and rice taste a little weird. First several bite is sour. I don't know. Not ordering that again. Service is great, they always check in on you. You sit yourself and someone immediately come up and bring you drinks.

Hard shrimp, hard hush puppies, stale potato, what more could you want?

Sigh. Why. This review probably never had to happen but alas, here we are. First. Why. Why was the food so bad, careless, cold, and stale? Sal and Phil's used to be a restaurant that served delicious seafood, great sides and tasty salads and now... Not sure what that was. So let's be transparent, as usual, this was a takeout order and I ordered: Crabcakes with cocktail sauce and tartar sauce Salad with Italian dressing Shrimp basket with a baked potato and hush puppies Let's dive into it... The only good thing about this meal was the cocktail sauce and tartar sauce. Tasty, may be jarred, who knows. The crab cakes were horrible - cold and undercooked. They honestly tasted as though they were days old, being fishy and unseasoned. They were not crispy, they lacked anything resembling taste, and were just... wrong. The salad tasted like it was old, plastic, and was simply not fresh. The shrimp basket - guys, a baked potato is supposed to be baked, not microwaved over so that the inside is glassy and gluteny. The shrimp AND the hush puppies were hard and the shrimp were, for lack of a better term, ropey and stringy. These shrimp had to die for this meal. I feel bad for them. I am so disappointed, I don't even think you guys should get one star but here we are. Please, try and care about the food you actually send out. Good fish had to give up their little selves to be on plates so bad that it really was a fate worse than a bad fish fry. At this point I am trying to find the humor in this meal. Please, seriously, just do better. Thanks

I ordered 5 pounds of crawfish, 8 potatoes, 2 corn on the cob, and 4 sausages. My total ended up being $70.82, not in the least bit worth the price! Never in my life have a had a baby full of baby crawfish (literally babies), when I called and placed my order I wasn't given a disclaimer about the size of the crawfish or anything. Upon making it home I discovered a bag full of baby crawfish, not only were they super small, I had alot of crawfish heads in my bag, as if that wasn't enough ALL of the crawfish were OVERCOOKED! I called back and asked to speak to a manager and the female that answered the phone said ,"well that's because of the snow storm!" I haven't seen or heard of any other business selling overcooked baby sized crawfish to customers. I let the lady know that I still wanted to speak to the manager and she placed me on hold and hung up in my face. Unprofessional and rude. I immediately called back and the manager answered the phone, I told him that I ordered 5 pounds of crawfish and paid $70 only to get my bag and it be nothing but baby, overcooked crawfish in the bag. He was unapologetic and said that their was nothing he could do about the size, well how about warning people before they order? I asked what about my order being overcooked and mushy, he said ," for me to bring the crawfish back and he'd do his best to not overcook the new ones but the size wouldn't change." The other items were fine but, who's driving over 30 minutes for you to fix a order that should've been right in the first place? Just sad, save your money and go someplace else folks.

Jumbo Fried Shrimp
Dawn M.

I made my first visit to Sal And Phils for an early dinner Saturday evening. Place was pretty much empty given it was 4:15, so I seated myself. Waited about 5 minutes and my server, Emily B., brings me a menu and takes my drink order. I ordered the jumbo fried shrimp entree and picked the coleslaw and hushpuppies as my two sides. Didn't take long for my order to come out but the shrimp were fresh and hot. They were bigger than I anticipated, despite the menu calling them jumbo. I've learned lately with supply chain issues to just go with the flow as restaurants are trying hard to meet customers' demands. Shrimp were seasoned well and not over fried. The hushpuppies were good but got hard once they cooled off. The coleslaw could have been good but it had way too much pepper on it. I love black pepper but this was too much for me. I could only stand three bites of it before I called it quits. Service was good and I can see myself making a return trip to try other menu items.

garlic sauté shrimp
Amira J.

i am throwing this restaurant my 5!! i was overall really impressed with the quality of food & excited about the comfortable ambience. SHOUTOUT TO PRESTON!!! came here on a late thursday night with a friend who loves this place. (it was my first time) & honestly was so so happy about how everything tasted. we started off with the charbroiled oysters with garlic & rosemary which were literally delicious! to die for, i could eat these for breakfast lunch & dinner! then! i ordered the sautéed garlic with a side of green beans. this dish was perfect for my tastebuds because i didn't have to add any additional flavor everything was just melting in my mouth. my friend ordered a boat of crawfish, & these were nice size & delicious !! had so much fun eating here i will be back to get crawfish & more delicious seafood

Delicious shrimp!!

I had lunch here on Sunday October 20th. As usual, the service was excellent, and the meal was delicious! Keep up the great work.

Stuffed flounder. Everything was horrible.

This was our first time in The Mighty Crab and we are in love with it. Personnel were very nice,…read morewelcomey and friendly. The food was incredible and prices are very reasonable. The lobster, shrimp and sauces were boom Interior was very cute, my husband said it smells cleanness We will be back for sure!! 9 out of 10.

I visited Mighty Crab in Jackson, Mississippi on Thursday, 06/04/26, around 9 PM…read more Originally, I had the intention to dine inside the restaurant. Unfortunately, the hostess indicated that the restaurant doesn't allow dine-in guests one hour before closing. I proceeded to go with the takeout option instead. At this restaurant, daily specials are offered. Since I came on a Thursday, I opted for the seafood boil deal that came with 1 lb of snow crab legs, 1/2 lb of shrimp, corn, and red potatoes. I customized the flavor as the "Mighty Special" - Cajun, Lemon Pepper and Garlic Butter all combined. For the spicy level, I chose "Hot." The total was only $36.99! This was such a steal, especially since the seafood boil bag was generous. When trying it, it was honestly so flavorful and palatable. The sauce literally made the crab legs, shrimp, corn, and potatoes beyond tasty. Mighty Crab serves satisfying seafood boils with mouthwatering bold flavors! This spot is definitely worth paying a visit to.

Great location, you can have a conversation at your table. Very open and well spaced tables…read more Comfortable seating. The original restaurant, to me, was better and food more flavorful and tasty. Tres Leche Vanilla and Chocolate were really good. The menu was impressive and a little pricy. The ribeye steak was cooked as requested but not a good steak taste. In addition, scallops and shrimp were brought after the steak had been served. We requested no crab meat on the fish due to dietary requirements. The server asked if it was still okay to add the mushroom gravy sauce. We said yes. The fish was topped with shrimp that wasn't asked if that was an acceptable substitution. There was no mushroom sauces. The vegetables and potatoes were less than desirable.

Met up with some friends at Eslava's for dinner Tuesday night. My first time at the new location…read moreand my first time ever eating dinner there. I like the dining area. More refined then the last location. Still a casual vibe but it's easy to also dress up and not feel out of place. Everyone else ordered the seafood pasta but I got the seafood combo. I picked snapper and scallops. Came with vegetables, wedge potatoes and a side salad. My side salad was made great due to the comeback dressing. That was some of the best comeback dressing I've had in a while. The snapper really gave tilapia vibes. It was slightly over-seasoned to me. My scallops were cooked just right but didn't have much flavor to them. But I liked them more than the snapper. The veggies were ok. Nothing to write home about. The potato wedges were pretty good. I asked for some feta dressing and that made the difference. Overall, I enjoyed dinning there. Service is good and food is decent.
