Food always good , service was prompt and
Liked sitting at a table by window . Only downside
Very noisy hard to hold a conversation!
We have been going there regularly for at least 15 years. Literally 2-3 times a month.
I always buy Snapper or Hogfish and 2 dozen clams.
Last week I bought 2.5 pounds of snapper and 2 doz clams as they were closing. I rarely walk out spending less than $80.
I immediately came home and put the shellfish into a bowl and the snapper in the coldest part of the fridge.
The next day when I took them out to cook .80% of the clams were open. They were shot...read full review

The Crab Plant is a highly recommended seafood restaurant in Crystal River, known for their delicious low country boil and excellent crab dishes. This spot offers quick service and mouth-watering food, with the freshest seafood caught locally. The menu includes chowders, gator, frog legs, red shrimp, and more. Guests consistently praise the friendly service and suggest asking for recommendations to enhance the dining experience. The food was so tasty and quick. The salmon and lobster roll were absolutely awesome. Some of the best conch fritters ever had, very close to Key West conch fritters. Large portions, reasonable prices, quick and efficient service. Soup was seafood chowder and blackened red shrimp. Also had honey garlic shrimp grilled appetizer. Great spot on the water for some casual but delicious dining. Staff is incredibly nice. Drinks are amazing, and they do not water down their alcohol drinks. The restaurant has limited parking but is kid-friendly with a dedicated menu. It is important to remember that they are cash only, although they have a cash machine on hand.
