    My friend and I are regulars at Ugly Crab and have been for a while. We usually order the Super Seafood Combo and it never disappoints--until this most recent visit. We noticed right away that something was different. The sauce, which is normally rich, buttery, and full of flavor, tasted noticeably off--it was more watery and lacked the usual punch. On top of that, the seafood didn't seem as fresh or high-quality as it normally is. It just didn't feel like the Ugly Crab experience we've come to love. We're loyal customers and will absolutely continue to support this place because we've had so many great meals here. But we were honestly shocked and disappointed by how far off this visit felt compared to what we're used to. Hoping it was just a fluke and things are back to normal next time.

    The food was decent so that was at least worth the 1 star even though it still wasn't made properly. I called in a Togo order on the 20th around 7 pm and first of all it took about 10 minutes to place the order because from what I was told when arriving, he was the cook and didn't really know what he was doing. I gave him my number several times for my order and he kept asking if it was xxxx in which I would reply no again. I finally asked to speak to the female who pulled up my transaction history and I told her I wanted EXACTLY what I order everytime I come in which is pretty often. She said she could see what that was and told me how long it would be and the price. It was a couple of dollars more than normal but inflation seems to always be on the rise so it's whatever. I pick up my order to find out instead of my normal 3 piece corn (which i always pay extra for) wasn't in the bad and she only gave me 1. I called back and asked to get my missing pieces and she argued with me for what seemed like a total of 5 minutes over the corn trying to tell me I didn't ask for it when I specifically said I wanted all my extras as usual including the potatoes, corn and sausage. She said I didn't order the extra corn and it doesn't come with it which I then questioned how I've been able to get it each time then and why did my order come to more money for less food? She had no answer. As i stated previously, i have a specific order I continuously purchase so I know the quantity I should receive for what I pay. When I got home and started dishing out the food, the quantity seemed much less than normal so I decided to weigh it. Sure enough, I didn't get what I paid for and I got about 8 mini pieces of sausage for the ridiculous upcharge. Half of the black mussels either didn't have anything in them or they were so small you could barely get a taste. Not only that but my son hates spice so I get the garlic sauce which is an additional $5 which they charged me for yet it was still spicy. This was a HORRIBLE experience. I would definitely recommend watching out for this location if not all as they are scamming people out of the food which is probably saving them millions. I will definitely NOT BE COMING BACK.

    This place was saucy and seasoned! And dare I say buttery. It was so good! Crab Rangoon with a side of seafood boil! I really enjoyed eating here, the seafood boils were fun to eat and tasty and had no issues! The restaurant was clearly popular and kept a steady number of guests. There's dine in and take out. Ambiance was fine, the attention was paid to the food!

    I am not a novice in terms of seafood boil- we ordered for the garlic butter sauce & I am not quite impressed BUT love the size of their dungenees crab. I enjoyed the fried food more- crab rangoon & their fries! Space is clean, quiet & service is okay.

The black bean burger is delicious, and you can customize the toppings and cheese on any burger or chicken sandwich. Sides include edamame, tater tots, fries, fruit, and a side salad. The sauces, like the salad dressing, are made fresh in house. Sauces include country gravy, buffalo, sweet heat, ranch, and honey mustard. I always order a sauce or two for dipping g my tater tots or fries. The salads are much better than the usual fast food or fast casual restaurant. Always fresh ingredients and the dressing is made daily, in house. Several varieties of salad and they are all excellent. Shakes are excellent! Very thick so you will need the extra large straw. The employees are very friendly and service is fast. The dining room is always clean and the booths are solid and comfortable.

The one important thing I would say, is that when you place an online order, they don't mark which dish is which.

I had a bowl with sweet potato noodles, some veggies and the Korean crispy chicken. The flavors were good, but the thing that struck me was that some of the items were essentially cold and others were lukewarm, but none of it was really hot. I think it's an inherent property of what they do. They never "grill" or warn all these items together. It would be much better IMO if all the items were stir fried or thrown on a grill quickly together to warm up the dish and meld the flavors. That said the Korean crispy chicken was flavorful and the noodles were a highlight, and seemed to be like Thai glass noodles I've had before. My dining partner got a bowl with the same noodles, some veggies and the salmon. She really like the salmon, and said her bowl was good. The restaurant was clean, the workers were very welcoming and helpful on informing how to pick bowl items, etc. Parking was very easy. Of course they accept all the standard forms of payment, including tap to pay, etc. Overall, if you like interesting yet potentially disparate flavors together in the same bowl, you will likely enjoy BIBIBOP. We had already eaten a few bites when I remembered to take the pics (Apologies).

They have a pretty extensive beer list here, and many of them are local choices. For appetizer, we got the couscous Mac and cheese balls. These are pretty close in nature to arancini, but with more cheese. My main course was their weekend dinner special, with prime rib accompanied by white cheddar mashed potatoes and roasted asparagus. The prime rib was absolutely amazing, nice and tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes were also great and are a very smooth consistency. For dessert, of course we had to get a pizookie! The triple chocolate delivers on its name. Served hot, it is well worth the wait after two courses of deliciousness. They have TVs around the bar area that have sports on. At the time, basketball and nascar had the most coverage. I wish they had the closed captioning on, since that makes it easier to tell what goes on if you're not right at the bar. The bathroom is kept clean there. My boyfriend and I are sure to come back on the weekday special going on, with select entrees and pizookies for $13 - what a deal! Hopefully this is sooner rather than later!

Finally someone came over. We ordered teas & an appetizer of flaming saganaki. We found it very tasty. For entered I ordered the Greek meatball sandwich. My wife got a cup of egg lemon bowl ( which is a soup she loves) & Keftethes ( with beef meatballs). I found the fries god & the meatballs & bread decent but the sauce was a little off to me which greatly reduced my enjoyment. It was just ok. My wife thought the soup was a bit thin but overall god with a strong lemon flavor. Her entree the meatballs were good, the green beans were cold & the roasted potatoes were decent. Overall she was meh. We ordered desserts to go. Baklava, Galaktoboureko ( custard in philo dough) & Oreo cake. Wife thought the baklava had an overpowering cinnamon taste which hurt it. The Galaktoboureko was basically sugar cream pie with philo crust. I thought it was ok but wife thought it should have been thinner. She also believes the to go containers aren't sufficient for these desserts due to the sugar syrup. The "Oreo cake" had one cookie to the side & was dry. When we gave the waitress our gift certificate she said they would take that off when they rang up the bill. She came back & the gift certificates were not taken off. I pointed this out to her & she went back to talk to whoever is running the register. When she came back she said she has no idea what's going on but they gave me a $50 bill to credit the $50 in gift certificates. My amazing wife surmised that they credited someone else's bill & gave us the $50 to make it right for us. Bottom line is all the staff we interacted with were friendly but the restaurant is very disorganized. Food was just ok. Can't say we were impressed.
