I’ve been ordering from Mr. crab for years but I just tried this location for the first time. I tried sautéed crabs for the first time and they did not disappoint. I might go back tomorrow. They were that good! Happy to have him in the Overbrook area.

I enjoy the seasoning on the crabs, but the service is horrible. If you are open until 8pm change the time. If you have to pray, change the time. This is the second time I went to pick up my food and was told I need to hurry up so he could pay. This time he close and left my food on the gate for anyone to take. I try to support, this is what I get. Could of had a regular. Smh never have I ever given money to be treated so poorly.

I pass by this place several times a week and never noticed people coming in out. I was skeptical to try.I ordered flounder platters and a snow crab/mussel platter for carry out. The fish was well seasoned and fried super crispy without a heavy breading. I didn't need any condiments on my fish (that's how good it was). Even the coleslaw that came with it had a good flavor. The crab & mussels were cooked and seasoned well also.I think the prices are a little high, but at least you are paying for good food. I waited exactly 23 min for my order (the estimated time I was given was 20). I only noticed one person cooking and taking orders, and a few people had come in to order or pick up while I was there. Give yourself enough time to wait or oder online.I will be back to try some of the other menu options!

I purchased extra large crabs. when I got home they looked like medium sized crabs and tasted like they were sitting for days.I love to support my own people but this was not

I had the #12. Hot & delicious! Loved it because it wasn’t overly seasoned. FYI the corn on the cob is frozen, not fresh. I still enjoyed it.Place is clean. Small amount of seating but if you choose to eat in, there are two flat screen tvs tuned to a sports game.I’ll definitely return when I want a seafood platter.There was one gentleman taking orders & he was pleasant & polite. Be sure to close entry door after you enter & there won’t be a problem! Close the door, this isn’t a barn.

Best crabs i’ve had in a while hands down. Seasoned perfectly and cooked to order. Super fresh. Reminds me of Maryland crabs. Owner and his wife was very nice. Support this black owned business ❤️.

My experience was not the best. I so happened to be riding by and said let me call and ask my question since I'm driving. I believe the owner was not having a good day because he was truly unprofessional. He told me all my questions will be answered right on his website if I have any questions go straight there. Which my answer was not there, the reason of my call. When I came into the establishment he told me if I can read I can read his menu and place an order. So that let me know this is not where I want to spend my money. I than requested a refund and he told me since I ordered online, which is where I was directed to go, he doesn't know how to give me a refund. I try my hardest to support black businesses but the first impression is always the best impression. For me to be spending my money at a new establishment and receive this type of service blew my mind. I never got what I actually wanted so I never took the food.
