This place was one of the few places we can say we enjoyed eating while being here. My family and I are from Cali and Dwight made everything smooth. He made sure we got what we wanted and suggested his best dishes. The food was delicious. Everyone left happy and had good things to say about him! Great attitude, great customer service. Thank you Dwight!

Good service . The drinks were very good. I had the rum runner it was perfect. We got the boil with 1 lb king crab and 1/2 pound headless shrimp add potatoes and corn. Started with a half dozen raw oysters. Everything was great. Will definitely be going back.

This 5 star moment is solely for Charles and his stellar customer service! This past weekend while Holiday shopping we stopped at this location for a quick bite and drinks. Due to the holiday traffic the restaurant was moving a lot slower than previous experiences. When we expressed that we still hadn’t been assisted after 10 mins of being seated, he quickly jumped in to aide the server for our section. He even went above taking our order with drink recommendations and friendly conversation to redirect the tone of our night! His follow up even after our server became available was top tier! With his help, we enjoyed our food and beverages plus we still made it to our movie on time! Thanks again Charles! Regarding the restaurant in general, it is our go to location for seafood boils as they are constantly delicious. The drinks are worth the price and the vibe is pretty chill as the location is tucked in a corner of the food court. I would give it a solid 4 star on the average visit.

Every time I come home, I stop at crafty crabs. I usually go to the Bowie location but this was in Arunel Mills mall near the food court. I normally dine in but I waited at the bar with my brother for our carryout order. The boom boom sauce is absolutely amazing! It is a mixture of the all their sauces: lemon, garlic, cajun! Trust me when I say your seafood boil will hit differently! I ordered a pound for me and my sister in law. The bartender was super nice!!!!! She was polite and courteous. I will definitely visit this location again.

Flavorful food. Very tasty. Clam Chowder is a must try. Very prompt and warm welcoming service. Our server Charles was a very nice, positive guy with that warm spirit my credits to him. This place has a lot to offer for local experiences. Highly recommended. The only thing I would love to suggest, is to pay more attention to overall cleanness / especially chairs/.

This seafood restaurant is in a busy, popular area, so I expected some wait time. However, my experience varied depending on the time of day. On a Saturday evening, the wait for my food after being seated was much longer than expected, which was frustrating. In contrast, when I visited on a Saturday afternoon, I was seated and served quickly, I had to send back my oysters and scallops because they arrived cold. Once my meal was corrected, everything was great! The food was flavorful, the portion sizes were decent for the price, and overall, I enjoyed my experience. Despite the inconsistencies, I would definitely return.
