Crabs and shrimps were over cooked hard to pill and crab meat was extremely difficult to get out of the shell maybe because I came an hour before closing on a Sunday night the cook must’ve been tired boss 😝

My oysters had no flavor, they taste like they'd been soaked in water. The rest of the food was good

My husband and I visited Crafty Crab for the first time to try their shrimp and lobster, and the food was genuinely delicious.
Fresh seafood, great seasoning, and a pleasant overall atmosphere — we really enjoyed the meal.

The only thing that felt uncomfortable was that the waitress kept walking around our table and watching us almost the entire time. It created a feeling of being observed and made it a bit hard to fully relax and enjoy our dinner.

Other than that, the restaurant left a good impression, and we would come back — we’d just appreciate a little more personal space next time.

I met a friend here for dinner, my first time. I've been waiting to have dinner here for a long time. The atmosphere was perfect, until a birthday party was sat right next to us and then it became very loud. We could barely hear each other talk. We left shortly afterwards.

Overall the food was delicious. I will be back in the future and hopefully we will not be sat next to a party group.

Good food but mostly fried. I would be interested in some healthy options like boiled shrimp, baked fish, etc. Servers are very nice I will be back.

I ordered take out on 9/19/2025 and picked up around 330.
Firstly the lobster was not cleaned and still had the poop line. I asked for no spice sauce on the side. The lobster was clearly sauced and then dropped back to boil in just water. I'm not sure if it was someone else's order that neve came to pick it up or what but it was the furthest thing from fresh. It was dry, stringy and crumbly, the crab legs appeared to have had the same thing happening to them.
The corn was very soft, so were the potatoes, indicating they're also old and overcooked. One egg was perfect they other was busted when it was boiled and tasted like water.
Overall I paid $60 for some extremely crappy seafood. 10 out of 10 for absolutely do not recommend. It was first and last time eating there! I'll stick with Mr and Mrs crab when it comes to a Brandon boil spot!!!
