Been coming here since it’s been opened and over the years the quality of service has declined immensely.
Came in with my family to celebrate a special occasion . . We arrived at 8:04 , front desk said they were no longer taking dine in customers , dine in apparently closes at “8:00” , front desk refused to seat us for being 4 minutes after 8:00.

Very unprofessional! We’ve been loyal customers and always order the family pack without issue.

Crab in a Bag offers great value with generous portions like Catfish and sausages. Despite some small disappointments, the friendly host Tatiana gives excellent recommendations, making it a worthwhile visit. The isolated location may deter some, but for a first-time experience, it's a good choice with attentive service from the host and cook. Customers have praised the food, especially clam chowder, which was described as the best ever, and the snow crab with butter garlic, served with ice-cold beer, creating a stellar dining experience. However, there have been reports of unprofessional service, including long wait times and rude staff, especially during busy times. Overall, the restaurant is known for tasty food and friendly service, although some encounters have been disappointing.
