Crackin' Crab Seafood Boil offers a unique and delightful dining experience. Despite the busy Friday night, the restaurant had a short wait for a table, creating a nice atmosphere. The attentive and friendly server ensured a pleasant experience.
The food was the highlight, with diners describing the seafood as "delicious." The "Goya" dish, featuring a half-pound of clams, crab, shrimp, corn, and potatoes, was a customer favorite, with the option to substitute pork for extra corn. The Cajun mild sauce provided the perfect balance of spice, not too overpowering.
The "market prices" on seafood pounds were not clearly displayed, but the staff provided a list that could be adjusted daily. Some diners felt the waitstaff's casual attire, akin to a fast-food sandwich shop, was a bit too informal for the dining experience.
Parking was a bit challenging due to the restaurant's popularity, but the overall experience was praised. Customers were impressed by the efficient service, with the server refilling drinks without being asked, making them feel welcomed and eager to return.
The unique presentation, with the seafood served in a plastic bag and diners using their hands, was initially described as a "weird experience." However, the quality of the food, including the excellent lemon pepper sauce, won over the diners, who found the messy but fun activity to be an enjoyable part of the experience.
