Rustic Inn Crabhouse - Fort Lauderdale

Besides the Golden Crabs, the food here was just ok. The Golden Garlic Crabs, however, are to die for . They are the best crabs I’ve eaten, by far!

There are several things that make this a special place besides the food. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. You can't help but get into the banging of the mallets and celebrations. It's good to have hand cleaning facilities close to the tables because even the neatest eaters need them. It's a little pricey, but well worth it.

We just happened on this place and how lucky for us. A real down to earth place with a wonderful atmosphere. We both dined, she had wine and desert. The cost was good $85 for one meal we shared) but when you weighed out the food we had it was ok. We will definitely go here each time we are in town. Don't miss it!!!!!!!

The food is the best. I love batting down the crabs on the newspapered tables. It's just fun and delicious fun. A bit pricey but the quality is well worth it. One of my favorites is the garlic crabs. I have had them there and taken them out. Well, not on a date, but out! Ha. Great fun! Great food. Great place!

Atmosphere is very nice. There are 4 areas to choose from; the barge, dock, indoor dock and the main restaurant. Service was very fast and very attentive. Servers know how to make their customer feel at home. Very nice for celebration such birthday party, etc. It's been there a long time and it's still the favorites for generations. And they do takes outs too. There's a lot varieties of crab to choose from. A place not to be missed if you are visiting Fort Lauderdale, Florida. More info in there website:rusticinn.com.
