| - I was skeptical coming here with the mixed reviews I have been reading about the bad service and the quality of food. We decided to give it a try anyway. We ordered just what they are known for...Crabs! They had the $3/large crab special. Ordered 8pcs, 2 orders of white rice, and lobster bisque.
First off, we were greeted promptly and seated right away as soon as we walked in. That was instantly a relief since those were some of the issues of patrons here. We were handed menus and order was taken about 7 minutes later by our very friendly server.
Then our order came, as soon as I opened my first crab, it was love at first sight! It was meaty, full of crab butter, and steamed just perfectly!!! That just sealed the deal for us. Our server served all of our side dishes, limes, vinegar, drinks at one time so we never had to flag him for anything. We devoured and enjoyed our crabs dipped in spicy vinegar.
This place was truly above and beyond my expectations. Everything went smoothly service and quality of food wise. Although, I cannot speak for the other items they have for their menu since we only ordered what they are popular for, and that is their crabs. Yelp is a great source in our dining choices but it does not always determine the outcome of our dining experience. One customer might have a horrible time but it doesn't mean you will too. Sometimes people could be ordering items that are not really their specialty so you cannot really set your expectations high. I remember dining at a vietnamese restaurant that served one of the best Pho' but their Pad Thai was anything but great. So always give a place the benefit of the doubt and stick to the highlights of their menu.
We sure glad we did because we have just discovered a hidden gem next time we crave for blue crabs at a very reasonable price!
