What a great establishment! Jumbo Crab was busy and short staffed the day we went but our experience was still great! They were courteous, friendly and fast. The food and service were both great! We will be going back!

Went here as was close to the hotel I was staying at. I was pleasantly surprised. The place was very quiet, only a few tables. The seafood boil for 30 was delicious. Cajun medium spice was perfect. Great price on beer and wine. Highly recommend.

were the only people here for a while and were hesitant. Let me tell you- this was an amazing meal. Probably the best I ever had. The drinks were incredible ( the June bug was my favorite.) so much food for the price. We took a lot home as well. Server was so sweet.(jay) Had an amazing time and can’t wait to be back .

Food was really delicious, and staffs was very accommodating. We picked the 'All of the above' seasoning, and it was so amazing.

I have been there customer for almost 4 years. I always enjoy my order taste and smell fresh. Great customer service. Clean place. For pick up your order will be ready within 10 minutes. Always ask him for their daily special. You can order extra sauce on the side. My favorite sauce is the jumbo special With extra seasoning.

Ate there for my brother's surprise 50th and the staff were kind and attentive. Food was hot, fresh, and amazing! 1st time there and will definitely return!

Absolutely delicious! We did a medium spice level on the Cajun seasoning on the Blue Crab and Snow Crab. It was the perfect level of heat for us. If we ordered again, we'd just do the Snow Crab just because there's so much more meat than the Blue. The boil came with corn, red potatoes and broccoli. We ordered the hush puppies to start. 10 small hush puppies came out piping hot in a basket with a side of ketchup. Crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. Well seasoned and tasty. There was only one other couple in the restaurant. So, we were skeptical about what was 'wrong' considering the empty dining room. There is nothing to explain why. Food was on point. Beers were ice cold and only 4 a piece. We'd definitely go again and hope more people do, too. Staff was lovely.

I had the crab leg and shrimp combo and absolutely loved the flavors! I had them with the Jumbo Crab Special seasoning, and I'm glad that I did. They were a tad spicy but not too much. Very flavorful. The vegetables that came with them paired nicely as well. The restaurant wasn't very busy and the service was great! The environment was good for the type of food served. Aprons, plastic gloves, and paper towels were provided to help keep you clean . I will be back!
