Once we finished our crab soup it was all down hill for the rest of the meal… Our entrees were flavorless and what little shrimp either of them contained the shrimp were overcooked and tough The waitress never asked how our meals were even though most of the poorly prepared entrees were still on the plate What the restaurant lacked in atmosphere they made up by way overcharging on the drinks; $15.50 for a single Woodford Reserve on the rocks, $10.00 for a light pour on the non-house Sav Blanc If you’ve never tried the Crab Trap you are not missing anything; stay away, stay very far away!!

We have been coming here for years and always look forward to sitting at the bar and having a great meal and service. Unfortunately, the bartender was more interested in passing his friends white claws as they sat at the bar (they obviously were not 21) than serving us a drink. Once we finally got waited on, the drinks were horrible and the food was terrible. We even overheard one of the other bartenders talk about “how stoned” he was! Anyway, what used to be a go to on our list will sadly become a stay away. It’s a shame.

We had the fried and blackened shrimp, which were both delicious, and a gin and tonic to go with it. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly service, and a good spot to grab a meal while on the island. The folks next to us had the crab soup and raved how good it was. Will come back and try that next time.
(For those who plan, this place doesn’t take reservations. We got there right at 5:00 and sat right down. When we left close to 6:00 the place was packed and had a wait.)

Disappointed with food and service. 15$ quality for 50$. Many better options in SSI in the price range. With all due respect!

The crab cakes were very soggy. When our order was ready they failed to Leyland us know so it sat for aometime.
Rude managers and service because I got nasty food and they have the audacity to say they have been cooking it for years. That’s not how customer service works. You don’t try to argue you try to make it right. Then the manager tells me I don’t need to be calling the store and complaining so I guess they don’t want our feed back If you’re the owner I’ll look into your staff and the way the food is being prepared.

Fabulous meal. We were in search of some local seafood and we found it at the CRAB TRAP on St Simons Island. We were staying on Jekyll but had exhausted all opportunities for seafood on Jekyll so decided to go off island for the night. My husband ordered the seafood platter and everything from the fried oysters to the fried fish and shrimp were excellent. The dish was served with fries and Cole slaw. I ordered the fried shrimp and it was perfection. You can tell that the restaurant caters to locals, so with that said, you know the food is perfectly cooked. we highly recommend this restaurant to all visitors to the Golden Isles!

Great seafood, especially the fried oysters and decided to go with the crab chowder which was amazing.
Once we finished our crab soup it was all down hill for the rest of the meal…
Our entrees were flavorless and what little shrimp either of them contained the shrimp were overcooked and tough
The waitress never asked how our meals were even though most of the poorly prepared entrees were still on the plate
What the restaurant lacked in atmosphere they made up by way overcharging on the drinks; $15.50 for a single Woodford Reserve on the rocks, $10.00 for a light pour on the non-house Sav Blanc
If you’ve never tried the Crab Trap you are not missing anything; stay away, stay very far away!!
