What nikki v likes about Crazy Crab:
This restaurant is absolutely delicious! The owner is incredibly sweet and caring, and the portion sizes are huge. My husband and I ordered one combo and couldn't finish it all, even though he's a big guy. If you're a fan of garlic, definitely try the spicy garlic noodles - they're a must-have. Overall, the owner and staff are so welcoming and friendly, they'll leave you with a smile on your face. View all feedback. What Sumena D doesn't like about Crazy Crab:
There is nothing exceptional about this restaurant. The clams are lacking in meat, the shrimp is decent but the sauce is overly sweet, and the chicken wings and calamari are too tough. View all feedback.

This local seafood spot offers a varied experience that leaves patrons with differing opinions. While some dishes, like the spicy garlic noodles and popcorn lobster, impress with rich flavors and generous portions, others, such as the shrimp and mussels, fall short. Customer service has also garnered mixed feedback, with some praising the owner's attentiveness, while others lament long waits and staff shortages. The casual atmosphere accommodates a hands-on dining experience, perfect for seafood lovers ready to embrace delicious, albeit messy, meals. Though not without flaws, this restaurant shows promise and deserves a visit.
