I really wanted to like Crazy Crab because everyone was really nice. The owner, the hostess, the waitstaff were all really friendly. We were expecting a long wait for really amazing local seafood. We got the long wait. But the meal was disappointing. It took about 30-40min to get seated. No issue with that. It's busy and it's popular. We're former restaurant workers on vacation so we are pretty patient. Once we got seated we ordered and it was over an hour before we got our food. It looks like they were having computer issues. It would have been good if someone came over to let us know there were issues. But parties who came in after us were paying their checks when we just got served. Again we were fine with waiting for great local seafood. It har wasn't great. I ordered the sea scallops. I only get fried scallops when I know they are fresh and delicious. The scallop dinner was $35. I got about 6 small scallops. I guess fried meant pan fried and not breaded like I thought. They were mediocre at best. My husband gave me some of his fried scallops from his platter. Baked potato was ordinary and house side salad with some wilted lettuce was sad. I was really disappointed. My son got the fried oyster platters which was decent. Hubby got the fried captains platter and he said it was good but not worth the money. The prices are like a prime rib place but the food is absolutely not. If you are charging those prices you also shouldn't be using plastic disposable ramekins. The atmosphere is a lot of loud locals and a few were really drunk. That's not an issue if it's a casual and moderate priced seafood joint with drinks and a view of the water. The prices just don't match the atmosphere. We waited a long time after we got the food. The staff was super busy. We got 2 coconut cakes to go and when we got home we were disappointed to see that they definitely weren't house made even though they were on the specials board. We were just there for waaaay too long and spent waaaay too much money for a mediocre experience. We arrived at 6pm and it was nearing closing time when we left. No reason to complain because they were so busy and clearly having computer issues so we didn't want to wait any longer. I really wanted to like the place but I'm afraid next time we visit we won't be back.

Went there on Friday, 07/12/2024. I had the Captain's Crab Cake Platter - came with two good-sized (fried) crab cakes and two sides (I got the fries & cole slaw). The crab cakes were wonderful; delicate and flavorful. They were so good in fact that I did not even use the tartar or cocktail sauces that came with them. I just enjoyed the crab cake as it came. The fries tasted like they came from fresh potatoes and were flavorful and not too salty - just right. The slaw was good - nothing fancy there. A good, serviceable slaw. I used that for 'palate cleansing '. My sister ordered the same platter, with onion rings and hush puppies for her sides. She said the hush puppies were very good, as were the onion rings; but she did advise to eat the onion rings sooner rather than later, as they cooled off quickly, and didnt taste as good after cooling off. The staff at The Crazy Crab is always professional, courteous, and attentive. Our waiter tonight, Layla, was the BEST! She was patient and knowledgeable, in addition to the above-mentioned professional, courteous, and attentive. I recommend The Crazy Crab heartily. You'd be crazy not to dine here!

Awesome place to stop by and dock your boat if you are cruising the bay or just out for the day. There is an option to stay for the night and hook up to electricity for a very cheap price per foot. The Seafood is always fresh and delicious!

Dinner was delicious. Glad we made a 5pm reservation, as the restaurant filled shortly after our arrival. Staff was courteous, kind and prompt. Food was DELICIOUS! I had pan seared scallops, the boys got flounder and blackened chicken Alfredo. We all left full and happy :) will definitely be back.

It's nice to be able to go somewhere and sit outside and have a water view. Even better when you can put your pups near the table because they are like children.
The food is good and the staff was very accommodating and courteous.
While there are very few places to eat in the area, it's nice to see they don't take it for granted.
