    My family and I had the pleasure of dining at the Storming Crab restaurant in Springfield, MO yesterday, and we were absolutely blown away by the incredible experience we had there. If you're a seafood lover like us, this place is an absolute must-visit! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm and friendly smiles from the staff, creating a welcoming atmosphere that set the tone for the rest of our time there. The restaurant's interior is cozy, with a nautical theme that instantly transports you to a coastal paradise. Storming Crab boasts an impressive menu filled with an array of mouthwatering seafood options. This was our first time here and we were hooked as soon as we walked in. Our excellent waitress, Ashley, warmly welcomed us and introduced us to a culinary flavor explosion - the seafood bread that would forever alter our dining experience. The garlic-infused, buttery, and delightfully cheesy crab bread was nothing short of a revelation. Its taste was SO good we had to order more. After finding out it was our first time eating there, Ashley gave us a recommendation to select one of the dinner combos. First, you choose your combo of seafood, that all come with sausage, potatoes, and corn. Then, you choose your boil flavor from their 5 options of flavors. Finally, you get to choose the spice level, so you can have it as mild or as fiery as you desire. For our appetizer we indulged in a half-dozen of the freshest raw oysters available. These pristine shellfish arrived on a chilled, circular platter, nestled on a bed of ice. Alongside them were carefully presented accompaniments, including wedges of zesty lemon, piquant horseradish, fiery Tabasco sauce, and a tantalizing seafood cocktail sauce, enhancing the oyster experience to perfection. We opted for the "#6 Dinner combo," a delightful medley of snow crab legs, shrimp, sausage, red potatoes, and corn. We decided to add a pound of crawfish and black mussels, along with a half-pound of extra sausage, that were all seasoned to perfection with their signature crab house Cajun sauce. we went with the mild spice level, and it was just the right amount of kick to elevate the flavors without overwhelming our taste buds. Each seafood item was impeccably cooked, tender, and succulent, making it a seafood lover's dream come true. What truly sets Storming Crab apart is their unique dining experience. Forget about traditional utensils - here, you're given bibs and gloves to dive into your seafood feast with your hands. It's messy, it's fun, and it adds a delightful element of novelty to your dining adventure. The portion sizes were incredibly generous, and I was thoroughly impressed with the value for money. The Storming Crab Feast could easily satisfy even the heartiest of appetites. To top it all off, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and eager to ensure that every aspect of our dining experience was exceptional. In conclusion, Storming Crab in Springfield, MO, is a seafood lover's paradise. With its inviting atmosphere, delectable cuisine, and unique dining concept, it's a dining experience that you won't soon forget. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving some mouthwatering seafood, Storming Crab is the place to be.

    Food was good. Had the boil with shrimp, lobster, and snow crab. Lobster was a little overdone but good. Service was good.

    Dinner Combo #7 with an order of Green Mussel (crab house cajun + garlic butter seasoning with medium heat)
    Anonymous L.

    Storming Crab is a quick cajun fix in 417-land. Finding decent cajun-seasoned seafood is difficult out here in the Midwest, but Storming Crab was a nice surprise! We ordered the Dinner Combo #7, plus an order of Green Mussels, with Crab House Cajun and Garlic Butter flavors and medium spice. The 3 of us finished every single bite of the platter! We asked for Super Hot spice on the side to dip our seafood in and it was a good level of spice. We'll come back to try Sam's Special next time. The only con is the sauces are VERY oily. If you LOVE garlic, get the garlic butter seasoning; otherwise, it may be too much for other's. For starters, we ordered a half order of Raw Oysters and they gave us complimentary Seafood Bread. The Raw Oysters came with Tabasco, a marinara sauce, and ginger-wasabi. It tasted fresh and tasted best paired with Tabasco, marinara, and a hint of lemon, but the ginger-wasabi had too much kick. Though every bite of the Seafood Bread was great, it's very oily and heavy. We'll definitely be back to try more of their menu!

    Never again. Not even almost Cajun food. It's like their only ingredient is garlic. SoMuch Garlic. However, our waiter was very nice.

    I don't know if the owner (could be whoever served us!) reads these, but we visited the evening of…read moreFebruary 10th, 2024. The young woman working was the only one behind the counter, and she was not only taking orders, some complicated, making suggestions, making all of the orders, SERVING the orders to tables, and bussing everything alone. The line at some points curved beyond the door. I'm not sure for the solid hour we were there enjoying our treats did she have a minute to herself. For that, we tipped handsomely, but she deserves a raise. The dairy free ice cream was excellent. Super smooth, not too sweet, very creamy, and stayed solid, which is hard to find all of those attributes in dairy free ice cream together. I had an Ed's Sauce slush, but instead of just oat milk ice cream, I swirled it with pineapple whip. Altogether, it tasted like a tart Smartie. Pretty good but cloyingly sweet. My partner had a cinnamon, graham cracker, and pretzel shake. It was excellent. Our friend had the Jimmy Eats Swirl bowl, which is essentially a concrete/blizzard. They hand mix their concretes without a blender, which is so impressive. I still can't believe she handled that much of a crowd entirely alone with such complicated orders. Anyways, the ambiance is super chill, imagine Digital Bean from Lizzy McGwire meets Tokyo cat Cafe, but no actual cats. Next time I'm in Springfield again, will be returning for sure. Bonus: They have a buy a meal/take a meal program where you can leave some cash with a digital receipt and someone who needs a meal can take one to redeem for a hot meal. Bonus Bonus(!): the bathroom has a bidet!

    Shout out to Tyler, smiling and energetic owner, who creates 'Craft Soda' delights in a food…read moretruck!! Not sure if it's a new concept, but a definitely a thirst quenching treat! Order a 24oz. drink Cup for $~4 or 32oz. for ~$6. Overall rating 4.0+ for my experience, appreciating Tyler's entrepreneurship and variety of soda delights and cookies. Celebrating a Bday, the kids wanted to have a special treat, so Fizz's was the choice for a quick outdoor stop. Craft Sodas are a mix of base soda (Coke, Dr. Pepper, Sprite, Root Beer, Lemonade), plus mixing fun flavors, and then soft ice cream for a float. Thumbs up for the James River RB float, and also many other drinks to choose. We added a fresh cookie (Snickerdoodle or Chocolate Chip) to make a dessert combo ... 'sweet' treats to celebrate! Give Fizz's (parking lot by Ace Hardware on S. Campbell) a try and sample one of Tyler's creation if you want an inspired soda and some new flavors. Enjoy!

    If you've ever been to the western states (Utah, I'm looking at you) then you'd know exactly what a…read morecraft soda and cookies shop is and how it works. Think Starbucks but instead of coffee as your base, soda is the base. So you can add all kinds of toppings, cream, syrups, etc. And they serve cookies, too. Now, soda is already sweet as it is! So add on syrups and it's A LOT. If you're new to this concept, stick with a diet soda if you're adding syrup and/or toppings. If you're just adding cream to it, then regular soda would be fine. But hey, if you think you can handle the sweet, go for it! My favorite that I've tried so far is the 417, but make it diet. It's a diet Dr Pepper, cream, and vanilla. Basic, but tasty. It's like a creamy vanilla Dr Pepper. And since it's diet, it isn't overpowering sugar on sugar. I've tried the Bear Trap, and it is good, but the cherry flavor is weird. I think it's because it is a cherry syrup and not a Cherry Coke. I think if it was a Cherry Coke with cinnamon, vanilla, and cream it would be fantastic! They also have Red Bull concoctions, if that's your thing. I haven't tried any of their cookies, but maybe next time I go I will. Overall, a fun treat and unique experience. Go check it out!
