Bleh........ Order wrong and overpriced. Service was pretty good though. Food prep wasn't her fault..... read more

Please have management contact me regarding my recent visit to your restaurant. We were visiting from out of town and tried to make reservations which they couldn't accommodate so instead we put our names on the wait list in person. First of all we waited 1.5 to be seated. Second, we ordered 2 sweet tea's to drink and was told they had 'run out' and would make more but never brought the second one out. After placing our food order- we waited 1 whole hour for it to be delivered!!!!!! When they finally started to bring out the food, the manager told us one of the wing orders they couldn't make because they ran out of that flavor. Now mind you the manager only came and notified us of the wing issue AFTER awaiting an hour to get our order to us. At that point we kindly said no thank you to an alternate flavor and my spouse ended up with no food. Furthermore, and order of chicken wings was brought to the table that we hadn't ordered and after we let the server know she attempted to get it off the table, I stopped her as said "well since you've already placed it on the table shouldn't you just leave it fo health reasons"? She did leave it and to add insult to all of the injury- those same wings still ended up on our final bill, despite the manager making zero attempt to rectify any of our issues they not only made no adjustments or offered any reasonable apologies but also left the wings no ordered on our bill? This experience was terrible for seafood that was average at best. I asked for the GMs contact info since the store manager was helpless. read more

Very good seafood. We had the crab cake basket with sweet potato fries and the shrimp basket with corn. Good portion sizes and delicious!

Food not warm. It's more of a bar than resturant. All fried food, and that is ok, but pretty poor service and food.

So good!! Soft shell crabs were perfectly prepared had beautiful lump meat. Thank you

The food was really good and fresh. I really enjoyed the service and environment! Will be going back for sure!

It was delicious, hot, and plentiful. I had the shrimp basket with Cajun fries (seasoning on the side which I also put on my shrimp). Husband had the fried oysters and coleslaw. The coleslaw was creamy and sweet like KFC. The hushpuppies would have been better if served with butter I think. They came out steaming hot too. It was clean and the staff was friendly. Hello buttered popcorn when your waiter comes over! That was a nice surprise. I'd go again. read more

The snow crab was over cooked. The service was horrible they did not bring anything to crack open the crab. The corn was soaking since noon. It took twenty minutes to bring a strawberry daiquiri to the table then we had to track down our absent server to pay the bill. I'm definitely not recommending or returning to this place. read more

We arrived late from Norfolk airport and first of all they had the full menu and also happy hour runs weeknights until 830 pm! This is a return to hometown and Twisted had soft shells . Everything was delicious. The Blue Motorcycle specialty was a delicious concoction! We're coming back! They are goood! read more

YES! This place is magic. So so delicious. I got the crab and shrimp boil with full seasoning and OH MY GOD. The seasoning butter was amazing and poured perfectly over everything. The crab legs were so soft and yummy and the shrimp was perfectly cooked. I was so happy and stuffed, man it hit the spot. I loved the free popcorn to start. The waiter was super nice and attentive. I would highllly recommend eating here if you're ever in Hampton- amazing! read more

My partner and I were in the area and looking for some seafood when I came across twisted crab. The food was really good, but our server KD made our experience great. Very attentive and super nice. Definitely recommend asking for her if you stop by. That girl needs a raise for sure!! read more

I really want to give it 5. But something's holding me back. Food was delicious. Husband and I both had crab legs and mussels. The sauce was delicious and spicy (the way I ordered it). It was soo good after I ate my meal, I brought it home with me so I could my husband's leftovers with it! Very nice sized portions. I really enjoyed it. There were a couple birthdays so it instead of doing their version of the Birthday song, they turned up the speakers and played 50 Cent In Da Club. It was cute. Certainly better than the guys across the street, wont mention their name. read more

So yummy. The sause was very flavorful. Food came out piping hot. They gave us gloves and a bib. A started with the gloves but soon took them off. I only wish they would sell thier sause. My family would this but I'm here on business so came without them. Do NOT wear anything nice or white. It will get messy but that's what makes it so good. read more

Not worth the wait. The good news is the food is good, but the portions are extremely skimpy. If there is no wait, then try for yourself. Service is slow. If there is a wait for seating plus the slow service, then you will have a disappointed time like me. Beware...... read more

If you're in the mood to spend a couple bills on what will later amount to explosive diarrhea, you're in for a treat! If looking at the splatter on the window shades don't immediately give you pause, be patient...you'll have ample opportunity to question things once the paper plates and plastic bags of sea beast arrive at your table. Shocked by the lack of feral cats outside...but it was dark and they were probably lurking closer to the dumpster. read more

Service was a bit slow at first but the food mad up for it. The bag was plenty of enough for two. Price is reasonable for the amount of food. read more

I really just wanted to try the fried oysters. It's hard to find good ones around here. The pic someone else posted of them looked realllly good. They breading was good...light and favorable HOWEVER....the oysters were tiny and overcooked. Tons of breading and very little oyster : ( So if you are looking for good fried oysters pass this place up read more

I haven't sat down and eaten here yet. I ordered take out, about 5 separate boils. Everything was delicious, hot, and correct. I plan on making a trip there one day soon, when I do I will leave another review read more

Very friendly staff when I came in to pick up food. The food was great and crispy after my 20 min drive home. They have a lot of options too. Highly recommend this spot. read more

My entire group absolutely loved this place! We got to the restaurant a bit later in the evening, but they were still very helpful and had great recommendations! We ordered a couple T3 meals, a T1 meal, and then some of us had fried baskets. Everything was delicious and I don't think we had any leftovers at all. The crab was very soft and one person said it was the best crab they had ever had. I would absolutely recommend this place if you like seafood! read more

This is the perfect example of a good idea poorly executed! Food was really, really good! Service however left a LOT to be desired. It was extremely slow and once we did actually get food, every single order in our party was incorrect or missing items. Not one order was served correctly. Some waited over an hour just to have send back their entire meal back and wait almost another full hour to get their original order. Some people got their paper plates and plastic silverware while others did not. Yes I said PAPER PLATES!!! Not a single drink was refilled at the table during the entire evening. I honestly have NEVER in my life experienced such poor performance from restaurant staff. When we spoke to the owner we first complimented him on the food and then explained calmly how bad the service was. He was less than sympathetic and offered a 10% discount. I pressed him for a deeper discount and no gratuity but he refused. So needless to say we will NOT be returning to this establishment. read more

Excellent! The service is great and the crab legs are even better! I had the snow crab with sausage, corn on the cob, potatoes, and shrimp. It was perfect! read more

I've been here 3 times and was never disappointed. The managers/owners are really down to earth and reasonable people. Each waiter/waitress I've had has enhanced my experience by ensuring a comfortable environment. It was about time Hampton got a nice and affordable Cajun spot. Great music. Great food. Great atmosphere read more

This place is great. Service is fast and the staff is very friendly. If you don't use the bib and gloves they give you, you will need a shower afterwards . . . but, it's worth it!!! Shawanda was really friendly and made sure i was taken care of (food and drink). read more

This was an unexpected surprise to my taste buds! Friendly and helpful service. We enjoyed the following items on the menu: ** calamari basket w/ Cajun fries (well seasoned calamari and not over cooked, fries were pretty good also) ** fried shrimp basket (large plump perfectly golden fried shrimp) - not over seasoned w/fries. Cornbread-very good ** shrimp boil (1lb w/ heads off) seasoned w/ garlic butter; mild spice w/ potatoes - - - absolutely will order again without hesitation! **mussel boil (largest mussels we have ever seen) Cajun seasoning; medium spice w/corn. Delicious; yet I think it would have been even better w/ the garlic butter seasoning instead (will try it that way next time around) & cornbread. Quick service, friendly staff, delicious food and cozy atmosphere all were this a great experience. Would definitely recommend trying and we are certainly going back! read more

If I could rate them a 0 I would, I ordered some food and only got one boil!!!! I call them and say something the first girl says "oh we just handed it out" I said let me speak with the manager she says "oh we never got that order..oh I see it now" like what it's the lies for me!! They're big nasty liars DONT GO THERE!!!!!!! Trust me !!!!! read more

Awesome restaurant. I've eaten a lot of shrimp and crawfish in south Louisiana and Mississippi and the twisted crab is some of the best I've had. If you get the low boil make sure you put on your bib because your going to make a mess. read more

This is a pretty great spot with ample parking! I love that they have tons of booth seating and a full bar! The staff was very attentive and polite, so that was a plus, and she gave me FREE popcorn! I order the shrimp appetizer and it was enough food to be a complete meal. It came with (8) deliciously fried shrimp with the most delightful light batter, not the typical corn meal batter. The fried shrimp also came with a side! For my entree I ordered crab legs with the garlic seasoning medium, it had a nice kick to it and I was glad I didn't get the hot option. Everything was amazing, except the "butter" to dip the crab meat, it tasted like cooking oil or something aside from "butter" and it didn't have any flavor at all. The "butter" was a huge disappointment. read more

This place will throw you off lmbooo in an instant we sat down and got served popcorn lol that had to be funniest thing ever, but foreal foreal this place surprised me I wasn't expecting the food to be that flavorful but it shocked me super spicy and I love it my friend was trying to keep up nose watering and coughing I was weak, but we definitely throwing down would highly recommend this place but slightly on the pricy side but if it's two of you get the combo because that is just enough food for the both of you. read more

Alright! This place food is pretty good. Just like the standard seafood boil places that are popping up every where. I had the garlic butter shrimp and crabs with a side of sausage. Really good. Seafood was fresh. Place is pretty nice on the inside. The only gripe I had was I didn't have a server. The hostess ended up serving us because whoever our server was was nowhere to be found. I like the place and plan on giving them another chance since the food was good. read more

Customer service was very poor. I sat at my table for nearly 20 minutes as servers continuously walked past my table. I informed the hostess that I had been waiting but she wasn't any help. I went to the manager who finally helped me get service. In addition to, the food wasn't fresh. Favor lacked and the presentation was poor. I'll stick with Shaking Crab in VA Beach. read more

Called ahead in this age of COVID and was told they were not too busy, arrived and seated immediately. To start, the staff was very pleasant!! Our waitress Jeniah, I hope I spelled it right, was on point. The Resturant looked fairly clean and stylish. Sadly, we got the ghetto vibe from some of the clientele. Cursing and very animated at the table with no one addressing it. Our order arrived hot and tasty. The wings were very good, sweet potato fries were kinda bland, Cajun fries were good and the shrimp was okay. I think I would give it a try again but not pressed. read more

Tried this place out and left very pleased. The service was excellent as was the food also. Wasn't crowded or loud and made for a enjoyable(but messy) date night with my wife. The simplicity of the menu was a plus, however might pose a challenge for a family with picky eaters. Overall one of the most enjoyable dining experiences I've had in a while! read more
