I have been to other The Juicy Crab locations like in South Carolina and Texas, and this is the reason why I’m giving this branch a 3-star rating. I ordered the Crawfish, Shrimp, and Sausage boil, with the Juicy sauce. The boil comes with 2 pcs of small red potatoes, and slice of 1 corn. 1. The flavor for the juicy sauce is lacking. it’s not “POW” like the ones I’ve had in South Carolina or Texas (their sauces have diff. names). The flavor is mediocre; not memorable. 2. Although I’m not a big potato fan, other locations have at least 4 small potatoes in the boil, and they’re prices are of the same range. 3. It only has 1 slice of corn, while in other locations it has at least 2 slices of corn. Because I like corn, I ordered an extra side of it, which they put in with the boil. 4. The service is a bit slow. I was sitting at the bar which is not full. but the bar extends from indoors to outdoors. So maybe it was quite a spot to handle for a bartender. Because if I reckon correctly, there was only 1 bartender (who was very nice) that night. 5. They place has a DJ. Love the choice of music. Made the place fun; but the music volume was just too loud for my liking. My rating excludes the DJ (and music volume) and the bartender. I also did not mind the potatoes and corn because I don’t know if the reason for small amounts of potatoes and corn is due to inflation. I’m solely rating the place for its flavor because it’s mediocre compared to other branches and other restaurants I’ve been to that serve seafood boils.

The juicy crab was very good. The music was very loud, as most of these crab places are. So sit in the back where you can hear each other. I went off the boil and had fried fish. Large portion and cooked perfectly. Our waitress, Amber, was fabulous . Friendly and attentive. Price was along the lines of the other crab joints. It's a bit cheaper. I don't get where the hard-boiled eggs get in the mix. Go.

Very nice place with great staff and better sea food. We had the boil and it was delicious. Sad we don't have a restaurant like this back at home. Definitely we'll visit again whenever we come back.

To be frankly honest, I was driving down international Drive after just arriving in Orlando from Missouri for the Special Olympics USA Games and I was just trying to find a unique and interesting place to eat. I didn’t even use TripAdvisor to find this place but I’m sure glad I stumbled across it! Stephanie did a wonderful job helping me decide what to order and provided prompt service throughout the meal. I had the Dungeness crab legs with a side of coleslaw. BRILLIANT TASTE with great seasoning (even the corn and potatoes were excellent! Loved the music and overall atmosphere as well! A++++ Might have to eat here again before the week is over!

My wife and I stopped in for lunch here after attending the Titanic Museum. The place doesn't look like much from outside, but we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of food and service. Staff were friendly, The food came quickly and yet was hot and tasty. The price is certainly not a bargain (especially the drinks - with soft drinks at $3.50) but it didn't seem too unreasonable either for seafood. I wouldn't say that the place knocked our socks off, but we also left feeling that it was a nice lunch and had no real complaints.

Went there and ordered the Dungeness Crab Legs - very juicy, full of meat, easy to crack with my fingers - My wife had fried Shrimp - very good size Order plate with 2 corns but didn't get it Pretty Windy but table clips held down paper For 2 clusters - was a pretty good price definitely would go back

The Juicy Crab on East Michigan St. has unprofessional staff working there. I placed an order to go when I arrived. There was a doordash driver waiting before me, who was told their food would be ready in 5 minutes. Then, the attendee cashier asked me to hold on; which, I did. Then, there were two females who walked in. It appeared the attendee knew them because she left me standing there to converse with the two females and make sure they were seated. Then, when the attendee finally took my order, I asked for a dry rub of lemon pepper, no butter, and no heat. The attendee ended up leaving the front and 20 minutes or so had passed and we were still standing there. The staff focused on making sure the guest who was seated were treated and served with courtesy. Then, one of the employees, not in uniform and with bedroom slippers on walked into the kitchen and grabbed food and left-back out of the side door. Then, more time passed, and an employee finally came to ask us what we were waiting on after she avoided us while serving guests who dined in. All in all, I ended up receiving mild lemon pepper, when I asked for no heat. I will NEVER return to this location with their horrible customer service.
Adenis was an amazing server. The food was fantastic. We had an amazing time. They brought so much food we could have fed 2 more people and the price was absolutely fair for the amazing quality and portion size. We would definitely come here again.

Me and my wife stopped here for their oysters and were not disappointed. The big bonus was cheap buckets of beer. We usually go here to get our fix of oysters.

So delicious!!! Shrimp lobster crawfish chicken strips it was all good! If you like spice the medium is probably good or you can order extra mild juicy if you don’t care for much spice. It was all so good! I also had a rum drink and it was delicious and lots of liquor. We highly recommend this place for a good chum type boil!

We were seated quickly on a busy night. Our server was Angelique who was very friendly and took great care of our party of 7. The food was served quickly and was delicious!! Several of us had the seafood boils and two had the fried baskets. Everything was fresh and hot when served.
