Seafood was fresh and not overcooked at all. Scallops were large and tender, shrimp were cooked to perfection with the crawfish. The sausage had amazing flavor. Ordered the garlic butter with medium spice, but could not taste any spice. The spice was the only drawback to meal. Everything else was excellent!

had a reservation for 6 people at 4 pm. place was completely empty and hot and muggy. there was only one server(?) visible. menus and paper were brought to us, then after we were completely ignored for a good while. no silverware. no napkins. no water. keep in mind no other customer or table was in the establishment, and the only server/employee was in the back nowhere to be found. it felt like we were forgotten. after waiting several minutes, we left around 4:25 without being served. in my opinion just a bit unacceptable for us being your ONLY table in the restaurant.

First time here, and it didn’t disappoint! We went celebrating my daughter’s 13th birthday! A group of 8-10 people and we all agreed the variety of dishes we ordered were all AMAZING! The service was top-notch, too. Our server was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, including extra napkins and gloves (which came in handy!). The vibe is casual, fun, and family-friendly, perfect for a night out or celebrating something special. If you love seafood, Oh My Crab is a must-visit. Generous portions, unbeatable flavor, and great service. I’ll definitely be back! Rating: 5/5 Fresh. Flavorful. Fun. This place is a gem!

We came here mainly for crawfish, and they did not disappoint! Everything was customizable and we felt that it was worth the amount that we ordered. We did the mix of all 3 sauces - it was really good once it marinaded, but first off was heavy on the lemon pepper. Our server was very diligent in the set up when the food came and we appreciated his thoroughness from setting up our table to packing up leftovers. Overall, the food and experience met our expectations, we only wish that our server checked up on us more outside of taking our order, serving and bringing us our check. We would definitely come here again but be mindful of the varying service! Additionally, we really liked the decor inside and the music was boppin (2000s rnb).

This is a local spot that's great for families. I was pleasantly surprised by the food and the flavors—just a note, it is a BYOB establishment. We ordered the calamari and chose the mild seasoning, which was perfect. Do yourself a favor and avoid wearing anything that you might accidentally stain, as the place has a super casual vibe, and you’ll be eating with your hands (don’t worry, they provide gloves). I definitely plan to return.
