The food was good, the crawfish isn't as good as it used to be they taste dirty, or like decay. Majority of them are pregnant, so I just get the combo A which is good. Friendly service, and they are speedy. Clean environment. I wish they still served their tasty bread as their appetizer. read more

The Madden Crab - Combo A madden special, mild. extra Potato (3) - Seafood Near Me - Tupelo, Mississippi

We were pleased with the amount of food we got for the price. The crab, shrimp, sausage, oysters, and lobster tails were delicious. Our waiter was attentive and polite. He checked on us numerous times and never let our drinks go empty. The decor was a cute nautical theme and the bathrooms were spotless. It would have been five stars but the first two things I asked for off the menu they didn't serve anymore or they didn't have at lunch. read more

I've come here a couple times now with some coworkers. We always get the hush puppies which is great for dipping in the butter once the meal comes. We always get the meal D option and I usually sub out the crawfish for either more lobster or more snow crab. I will say the crab is hard to eat but the sausage and potatoes soak up the butter and seasoning which tastes amazing read more

The Madden Crab - a plate of crab legs and corn on the cob - Seafood Near Me - Tupelo, Mississippi

Food was great! Served quickly and nice and hot! Had dinner shrimp was way more than I anticipated! Cajun fries very good not spicy! Ordered hush puppies! Good as well! Service great! Place so clean was impressed! Complaint!!!! I hate eating with plastic utensils and styrofoam plates! Take out ok!!!! But restaurants inside I'll probably go back, maybe do takeout so I can use real utensils and plates! read more

We arrived around 4:00 p.m. on a Thursday. We didn't expect it to be busy at that time. There was only one table of people besides us. We didn't let that concern us since it was still early in the day. The server sat us in a booth. We asked to move because the seats were badly worn and very uncomfortable. We could feel the springs and torn covering. She moved us to a table with wobbly chairs, but it was better than the booth. The table, however, was right underneath a radio speaker that was playing constant commercials that were mostly static. We asked the server to either turn it down or change the station because it was very loud and annoying. She yelled to someone to fix the radio, but they never did. We endured the terrible static noise. My husband and son ordered two dozen oysters, and I ordered an order of calamari. The oysters did NOT taste fresh, and the calamari was rubbery with undercooked batter. We did NOT finish the food. We finished our two beers and water and left without ordering any main entrees. It was $58.00. Not worth it. Don't go. It was NOT good. The server also cleaned up tables with the bussing cart without washing her hands. Gross. read more

We both got the crab special which was 1/2 lb crab, shrimp, potatoes, corn ect. It was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Only minor grip is no real silverware. They had the crab crackers but not way to open the harder to open parts of the leg. The plastic forks didn't do the job. Wish they at least had the hard plastic pry tools. Again since it was cooks perfectly this wasn't a huge issue. Had they had those it would easily have gotten 5 stars. We will eat here on the next trip in the area. read more

All of our food was delicious! We ordered the appetizer Hushpuppies which were very tasty and our party had Combo C and Combo D which fed all 4 of us, but could have fed at least 2 more people!!!! Service was great as well. read more

This place never disappoints. 10/10 recommend getting steamed rice with your boil bag.

Worst meal we have had in Tupelo. Cheese sticks were bland, the marinara was spoiled. They brought out another one. The wings were stale. 7 in our party and the best thing on table was the tea. Don't know how gave this a 5 star rating. Mercy, $147.00 meal that couldn't be enjoyed by anyone. Snow Crab Legs Fried Catfish Basket Combination B Wings Chicken strips None of the above was any good. read more

Great food. Hot, fresh, generous portions with quality seafood. Service was stellar!

The crab legs were overcooked, making them hard to pull the meat out of the shell. The rice is bland, both fried and white. Everything we had needed salt. The place itself is set up and decorated super cute. The tilapia was good. The majority of the food just didn't quite live up to our expectations/hopes, sadly. read more

Very impressed with first visit. Nicely prepared seafood and at very reasonable prices. read more

The Madden Crab - Experience - Seafood Near Me - Tupelo, Mississippi

I feel their prices are deceptive. They hand write a second digit on the end of a price in bold white. They use a black sharpie on a black background in a dim atmosphere. When the waitress was asked she confirmed the single digit prices. Waitress was Asian with not a strong grasp of the English language. Food was good, but I feel they are misleading, if not scamming the public read more

The Madden Crab - Yeah hard to see the extra digit. - Seafood Near Me - Tupelo, Mississippi

Found this seafood spot when visiting a friend in Tupelo. Gave it a try and the outcome was great. Our server was very knowledgeable and attentive. Get the combo meal, it's the best deal. We got combo C and catfish basket. Make sure you choose Madden seasoning, was told that's what everyone choose. Price is good and they give you a lot of food for the price you paid. Will definitely come back again next year. read more

Madden crab has yet to disappoint us in any aspect. We usually get a random appetizer and the combination B and that feeds us both. When we want something cheap and familiar, we go here. Very friendly service and clean environment. Make this your "go-to" Tupelo restaurant! read more

Very good food even under these take out only orders. I got Combo B and was really pleased with the food and the price. Will definitely go back next time in Tupelo. read more

This was my first time experience here. I really enjoyed the food, it was as good as any we had at the beach last week. I ordered the shrimp and snow crab legs. They both came with corn and potatoes in a bag. The mild seasoning was really good for me. I will be going back. The waiter was very friendly and so was hostess. If you love seafood, I recommend this place. read more

Interior is really nice and the food was good. Menu was kind of complicated for me but it could just be that I'm dumb.

Tupelo is in dire need of a great seafood restaurant...and this is not it, unfortunately. The building is old and tired, smelled musty- would never know it had been newly renovated. Almost all staff were Asian, which I have no issues with but found it curious. And then after researching a bit, I understood why- this was formerly an Asian buffet. So. Anyway, ordered the shrimp boiled combo, which had so much grease, I understood the need for the gloves and bib supplied with it. Trying to hold on to the slippery devils and peel them without the shrimp (overcooked, btw) shooting off the table was a feat! lol! The red potatoes were actually good...but the corn was overcooked and saturated with the grease from the shrimp boil. We asked for drawn butter, hoping to resuscitate the shrimp, but when the server dropped the "drawn butter" off, we stared at the bright yellow imitation butter flavored oil and decided to just eat the shrimp sans "butter". We also ordered a side of onion rings, which, actually, were very good. Go figure. read more

Bring back Chinese place close it down. It was expensive and food not that good I may come back never know

Delicious meal! Shrimp and crabs were cooked just right, and loved the Madden's special blend of sauces! Great service and the decor makes you feel you are on the water. Highly recommend! read more

This place is horrible. I ate one oyster and I threw up I got half of a pound of crab legs and there was NO MEAT in a single one. Worst seafood place read more

The food is cold when you get it and when I got the catfish plate it was as hard as a rock and my dad got the crab it was a huge bucketful of crab and it didn't even have claw crackers.I will never be back ever again. read more

Hush puppies and crab cakes were frozen not fresh and super greasy. The wait time for our entree was almost an hour. The combo was good but not worth the wait. Manager was the hostess, unimpressive in both areas. Never again and would not recommend. read more

I do not recommend this establishment. We came in around 7:30pm and left around 8:30pm HUNGRY WITHOUT FOOD and HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED. First thing we noticed was our hostess complaining and going on about how they were slammed unexpectedly and that she apologized for the 3 minute wait and explained how they were soooo busy. 3 minute wait is not busy in our opinion. Then, Laken, our waitress comes to our table asking for our drinks. We tell her our drinks and she automatically forgets them and asks us all to repeat them, which okay I understand brain mess ups, no worries. 20 minutes after ordering we all finish our drinks, then almost another 20 minutes go by and we still have yet to see Laken. At this point I'm getting ready to get up and ask for refills at the bar. I finally see Laken and she has the nerve to apologize and complain about being so busy. (She is managing 3 other tables other than us. Seriously?) I get over it with our drinks being refilled finally and an additional cup of soda even though working customer service I've learned never to do that. Now, it's almost been an hour since we ordered our food. I haven't seen Laken in 15 minutes since she last stated she would check on our food with some more complains and apologies. My family and I came to the conclusion that we were done waiting after a full hour that is place is the worst. Never will be back. Do not recommend unless you want to have terrible service and wait 1 hour for food. read more
