I never take the time to write a review, but after yesterday’s crabs I couldn’t shake the feeling of this happening to someone else. A friend and I ordered 2 dozen of crabs 5/25/2024 around 4:30 pm. They were priced $60 a dozen and were suppose to be #1 large males. What we received were cold crabs that honestly seemed like they had been sitting . They WERE NOT FRESH! Our first mistake was leaving , but honestly we gave them a benefit of the doubt and thought that maybe mid to bottom of bag would be mostly warm hot ones and all large #1s. Something seemed off when we arrived 12 mins after placing the order. We waited an additional 25 mins (mind you no one was in the store) also us waiting so long we thought we would be receiving steamy hot crabs but we saw no steam when we left and it’s NO REFUNDS! Once we got home and dumped all the crabs, you could in fact tell they weren’t fresh even just by the seasoning looking like it had been cooked hours or even a day ago. And once you opened them they smelled of ammonia. I am sooo pissed because that’s over $100 gone. We called and the owner was soo nonchalant. He didn’t even offer a voucher for new fresh crabs . You can tell by the pics I have attached. The pics literally were taken as soon as we dumped them out. Tell me those def do not look fresh.

We ended up trashing them and going to decaturs (are usual spot) where the crabs were steamy and the seasoning sat beautifully on top. I would NEVER do cockeye ever again.

I picked up a dozen live blue crabs (jumbos) today. I must say they were the biggest and heaviest crabs I've ever bought and I've been buying crabs for 40 plus years! Great service and an excellent selection of seafood! Definitely the place to buy crabs!

Most of my crabs were old. I asked for 2 dozen and he gave me more than that but the crabs have been cross contaminated so now I can’t enjoy them.
