The weekend special seafood bag with juicy special (all of the above) sauce, mild is the best and addictive!!!! That is my go to meal! They have some good choices of variety drinks to try. The drinks special prices are reasonable. There are other good choices on the menu to try.

A dope seafood boil spot. The flavor was on point. Seafood was boiled to perfection. The only issue is that, according to “management,” they get their shrimp pre cleaned/unshelled. So the shrimp not being cleaned properly isn’t on them. I did get about 2 uncleaned shrimps (photo attached). However, the flavor and service were good. Management understood and offered a discount. Their drinks were cute and tasty. The ambiance was regular. It’s a chain, so you should definitely compare with like spaces. I do recommend!

Just had lunch here today, right when they opened at 12pm. It’s a Monday and wasn’t crowded at all.

Great spot for my birthday dinner. The large snow crab legs with pork sausage combo in garlic and butter sauce are amazing. Everything came out hot and fresh. The amount of food was so fulfilling and delicious. Will be back.

First time coming here. Have driven passed many times but always thought it looked small and unappealing. Boy were we wrong. Absolutely loved it! The food is fantastic and surprisingly affordable. Me and my wife split the $100 platter and had enough left for 2 days. Our server Brittany was fantastic as well. Definitely recommend.

We visited the Red Crab for dinner over the weekend, and to put it simply, we were less than impressed. Our table ordered the Red Crab special with clams and the weekend special. More than half of the clams were still closed and therefore, presumed unsafe to eat. The crab legs and the lobster tail were not easy to remove from the shell and just seemed like low quality for the price (a $5 up charge for a “large cluster” of crab legs—seriously?). It took a very long time to get our drinks and food and the weekend special wasn’t even prepared with the seasoning that was ordered. Our waitress was less than attentive and visited our table a total of 3 times. We would have brought up those issues with her, if she had actually returned to our table shortly after serving our meals. We had to ask another server at a nearby table to bring us shell crackers. By the time our waitress came back around, we had given up waiting and suffered through what we got. Based on this experience, I don’t think we’d return again.

I love red crab, but today I was not happy with my order. I ordered 1/2 pound of a small cluster snow crab legs and 2 eggs. I paid 20.00 for my order only to find out I received 1 snow crab cluster and 2 eggs. It is a small snow crab cluster at that. I doubt it is 1/2 pound.

Great place to dine in. Good atmosphere. Seats are pretty far away, keeping the social distancing. For food, we chose the family tray #A. Good portions for a group of two. The seafood was also very decent!!

My husband and I wanted to try something new. Although we live in the area we had not been to this spot. Very clean, modern, sleek, and gives you that Beach vibe. Our waiter was very attentive and friendly.
