I had intended to go to the Black Marlin, which is a restaurant next-door to Carolina Crab. David the host was most welcoming and sat me at a table. Once I looked at the menu and heard David’s recommendation for the crabcake I decided to stay and I’m sure glad I did. I lucked out with the server— Sam as in Samantha was most accommodating and one of the best servers I’ve ever known.I ordered the she crab soup with Sherry, which was thick creamy and calorie free. Sic. Followed by the duo of crabcake and scallops —both of which were delicious. I highly recommend Carolina Crab to anyone seeking a excellent seafood meal in a casual environment with superb service.

Great service, good portions and prices, and delicious seafood. The Alaskan crab was amazing, and we also loved the fried okra appetizer!

David was such a charming host. Hooked us up with other Midwesterners for a delightful lunch time conversation. He also wrote down several noteworthy activities to try while on the island. Loved the crab cakes & hushpuppies. Morgan, our server, was attentive & delightful!

Such a great vibe! We came after our dolphin tour. The greeter was super friendly and gave us a whole list of recommendations for our trip to HHI. Our kids tried crab for the 1st time and our server made a great recommendation for Snow crab. They even taught them how to crack it. Highly recommend! Kids were happy with fried shrimp and buttered noodles. Their cole slaw is one of the best I've had.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu with great options, and crayons and activities to kill time.

Everything about our experience was 5 STARS! The food, our server, Keernan , the atmosphere, but most importantly, the Main Man, the Hostest with the Mostest…. Mr. David. He offered more than just a walk to a table. He shared his heart, his love for people, and his passion to make peoples experience top notch! If for no other reason you choose to go here, please do it to meet a human who GENUINELY LOVES people. You won’t regret choosing this place!

This Resturant and the staff are without a doubt the BEST experience we have had EVER in a Resturant. I would give them 10/5 star review if I could. David at the front desk Kiernan our server, and all of the food runners. The ownership has something figured out. As a business owner myself I was taking notes. So much joy, positivity and genuine people on this staff. Not to mention the food was fabulous. Very talented kitchen staff as well. Seafood boil, pasta, crab cakes, all amazing. It’s a good thing I’m not a local or I might spend my entire paycheck here. Will definitely be coming back!
