The Twisted Crab Auburndale

I usually love the food but today the crab salad with cheese was spoiled and the stuffed mushrooms were cold. A bit disappointed as it was the first time I took a friend to experience it.

Good variety. I like the crablegs and cold shrimp.

Food was pretty good
I liked it because it was closer to home 🏡

Place looked clean and tidy and the servers were friendly. Unfortunately, the food was not the greatest. Some dishes were cold, others stale and some flavorless. Also, the variety of food was not as wide.

Food had good flavor other buffet places may have more of a variety but I would visit again.

Nice looking place. The buffet and seating area were very clean and the waitress was very attentive. The food, however, is another story entirely. The sushi was decent, and the buffet had lots of options. That being said, a few of the hot items I got were not, in fact hot, the crab rangoon tasted rancid, and a lot of the items didnt have much flavor.

It was fun to try once, but I don't think we'll be back again.

Had a lovely meal with a friend last night. Got home was fine. Woke up at 2am sick! Food poisoning no doubt. Would never return.

I ordered coconut shrimp, fries & ice tea & my friends ordered regular shrimp & fish baskets. My tea was weak & not great. We were the only customers there but it still took forever to get our food. My fries came but no shrimp. Everyone else got their orders but my coconut shrimp did not show up until everyone else was almost finished. Then the coconut shrimp was NOT like coconut shrimp I had ever seen. It was breaded & stuck together with a honey like substance poured on top. I said, “That’s not what I ordered.” She insisted it was coconut shrimp but it wasn’t. I said I couldn’t eat that but she said that’s what I ordered & that’s their coconut shrimp & offered no substitute. I tried to eat it but I had to take all the goey sweet coating off it. There was no coconut on it. So, I didn’t eat much. We will never go back to this restaurant.

It may look like nobody is there and it was pretty empty but don’t let that deter you from going. The food is absolutely phenomenal and the amount of food you get for the price is incredible! Definitely will be coming back.

We are from out of town and when we pulled in, 5pm on a Sunday, we only saw 2 cars and were concerned. Read others reviews and started the truck to leave then decided to just stay. It was dead/ we were the only ones inside but it was good having the place to ourselves, walked my 3yold nephew around while we waited on our food. Lots of call in / pick up orders.

Now the food... I been to tons of seafood places bein born n raised in Florida... but this ish here!!! ??? had the snow crab, headless shrimp and lobster tail with twisted sauce mild with potato and corn... everything was delicious and cooked the right amount. Crab legs snapped easily and meat pulled out easily, lobster was amazing... everything tasted fabulous!!! Highly recommend!

The place is always empty and service is a little strange but the food is good. The house sauce is really good.

Went last night to celebrate three birthdays and the service and food was excellent. We had one pound of the headless you peel large shrimp, crab legs, corn, potatoes and sausage. Everything tasted great, we really enjoyed the restaurant atmosphere and friendly staff. Thanks for a nice evening!
