Our food was delicious, the Mahi Mahi tacos were amazing! But even better than that was our service. Kayla was so sweet, attentive and on top of everything for myself and my two girls! Highly recommend!!
Delicious scallops and fries!
We visited in May of 2025 on a long road trip from Oklahoma. Kinzie was our server and she was as great as our food and experience! If we lived locally it would be our go to. We love to support local small businesses versus chains. Hubby even got his 1st tshirt on our trip and wears it frequently in Oklahoma.

Margie & Ray's Crabhouse and Restaurant offers a delightful dining experience with its renowned she crab soup, praised for its abundance of crab meat and thick, flavorful broth. The seafood restaurant is a local favorite, known for its fresh, affordable, and diverse menu options, including steamed, fried, and grilled seafood selections to satisfy all tastes. Customers appreciate the casual, laid-back atmosphere, attentive service, and convenient parking, making it an ideal stop for those visiting the nearby Sandbridge Beach.
Recent reviews highlight the cozy, no-frills, nostalgic charm of the place, especially when seated outside on the porch in good weather. The staff is friendly and attentive, often keeping drinks full without asking. The she crab soup remains a favorite, described as thick, sweet, and filling, often enough to be a meal on its own. Fried fish, including catfish and fish & chips, are cooked to perfection—crispy on the outside and tender inside. Steamed seafood dishes are also highly enjoyed. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed seafood meal. The restaurant can get busy, but that's because it's well-loved for its classic seafood and friendly environment. Seafood is unmistakably fresh, and the key lime pie is described as "to die for." The servers are friendly, and the overall experience is positive.
