About 12 of us went on a Saturday night to celebrate a family birthday. They had a dj after 8 playing hip-hop and dance tracks. While the music was a bit loud for my personal taste, I enjoyed seeing people really enjoying themselves. The food was good and the service was adequate considering that it was busy. I and my group enjoyed themselves and we would go back again. We went to the Hillsborough Street location that was formerly Applebee's.

Food was great! Service was a little slow, but very helpful. Menu is pricey, but the portions are pretty large and definitely worth the price point. We were under a speaker that was loud but the staff was understanding and adjusted it when asked. Worth a visit!

The Crafty Crab was a very nice experience. I went yesterday and had the crawfish 🦞 and shrimp 🦐 combo with “The Boom” 💥 sauce. It was seasoned just right. Our server Tiara 👑 was very kind and gave great customer service. The only problem I encountered was that at least two of the shrimp 🦐 was overcooked. However, that corn 🌽 on the cob was on point and so was the crawfish 🦞, potatoes 🥔, and the eggs 🥚. I would go again. The food overall was delicious...
