It was great food was outstanding,service was kinda slow but it was still good.
Service was terrible and there really needs to be more communication between staff. Our waitress was very sweet though. The hostess didn’t seem to know what she was talking about, and it seems like they had no prior plan for their (reserved) larger parties. The staff was scrambled due to RESERVATIONS which should always be priority, and the wait times because of reservations should be discussed to customers. We were originally told 15 minutes, waited 40 minutes and were then told there would be an hour wait. (This was due to a reservation coming in [which they should have expected already??]).
Good crab legs. Fine service.
I had a disappointing experience at Salt Water Crab today. From the moment I walked in, things felt off. It took an unusually long time just to get a menu, which was frustrating right from the start. After finally receiving the menu, I struggled to get a drink order placed. While I eventually got my drink, the service took a nosedive from there.
The server never returned to take my food order, leaving me feeling ignored and unvalued as a customer. To make matters worse, the drink I received didn't have the slightest bit of kick to it, which was quite underwhelming.
Overall, my visit was far from satisfactory. I left feeling disappointed and unlikely to return. I hope the restaurant can address these issues for a better dining experience in the future.

Great food... Great Service
Been here twice within the past two weeks and have plans to return next weekend. The service has been good on both occasions and the food has been hot, fresh and delicious.
Review:
The interior is dainty and welcoming, though a bit cramped for my taste at first. Thankfully, there’s both a top and lower deck as you go further in, where you can relax, enjoy the sun, and people-watch while you eat. I was genuinely impressed the food came out hot and fresh, and the drinks were mixed perfectly and tasted AMAZING. The whole place has a super chill vibe. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!
They didn't rush us out! They are not small but have smaller separate spaces. Some places I've been way bigger but was rushed everyone. Cozy, hardworking good spirited, multi cultured, calm atmosphere. Yet elegant and Some of the not only esthetically pleasing but some of the best food I have ever had. Variety of seafood. I fo not even eat well I can't even remember what it's called but I had the cooked one. Andddddd was still full.
We visited the Saltwater Crab today for the first time and got 3 different boils which were all delicious! I can't wait to come back again!

The server Tawny is always the best. This was one of the first places my boyfriend and I have been to in Memphis when we moved here last year. We have had Tawny every time since then which I believe this is the fourth or fifth time we have been here. The food is great every time. I have had the shrimp seafood boil, the ribeye and now the lamb while my boyfriend always gets the salmon. The drinks are great too. We always love to come here and we are already looking forward to next time. Tawny is the best!!!

The tap beer special all day on Wednesdays is da bomb, it includes local craft brews! What could be better than that? I guess they could just give away food, but it's a business, that isn't a thing, don't be silly!
