Crawdads on the River is a popular restaurant that offers a variety of menu items and a picturesque river view. The menu features dishes like the cod sandwich with fries, jambalaya, burgers, seafood simmer, surf and turf skewers, fish and chips, and chicken and fries, all of which have received positive reviews from customers. The fries and crab cakes, however, were noted to be a bit too salty.
The restaurant's location on the docks provides a pleasant atmosphere, with some customers enjoying the lively ambiance of the big parties and loud environment. The outdoor seating is perfect for families, especially kids who love watching the water and wildlife. The food is praised, particularly the surf and turf skewers and fish and chips, though some find it pricey. The beet salad and nachos plate received mixed reviews.
Service has improved, with some reviewers highlighting excellent and polite staff, like Gabriel, who made their experience memorable. While drinks are pricey, the river view and people-watching are unbeatable in summer. Despite minor issues, the overall experience at Crawdads on the River remains positive, with many customers eager to return, especially those with out-of-town guests or young children.
