"King Claw is inspired by the low country, viet-cajun style of boil-in-a-bag seafood that retains all the juicy flavor combinations of the sea. We then add our own unique blend of spices to seal the deal. You won’t find our flavor combination anywhere else. We prepare our seafood fresh to order and encourage our patrons to get their hands dirty with our signature seafood combinations. We firmly believe in bonding over great food and drinks with family and friends, and what better way than to dig right in with your hands? Come open up a bag, where the juiciness awaits you."

Six of us ate on a very crowded night. The staff worked hard and was attentive. The entrees were all good. For dessert we ordered a tiramisu and a crème brule’ The tiramisu was great. The crème brule’ was not. It tasted sour and we left it. We did not bring it to attention of server. We were hot, tired and left. I feel certain had we mentioned, the staff would have made it right. Go and order the entrees!
