What Joe P likes about Crafty Crab Brandon:
Great seafood broil restaurant. Choose your seafood in half pound or full pound sizes. Choose from four seasonings and three spice levels. They also have great, large raw oysters. Good cocktails and friendly service. View all feedback.

What Sam e doesn't like about Crafty Crab Brandon:
The staff was very nice, no complaints on service. We all got fried shrimp and catfish and it had to be the blandest breading we've ever had. Its like they put no salt or pepper or anything in it at all. The sauce was pretty good so at least you can dip it. Just wish it had some flavor. View all feedback.

Crab specials give plenty of food for 2. Choose your spice level and type and it all comes out in a boil bag. Excellent quality seafood.
