    First let me begin by saying the Crab Spot is closed and no longer exists. There is a sign that tells you to go to another location. The restaurant at the “new” location has a completely different name. The food was ok. Not a place I’d go to again. I had dinner at the Crab Spot a few months ago. Totally different feel as well as difference in quality of my meal.

    This establishment was not open for business which was very disappointing after driving for 50 minutes to get there

    If I could leave a negative star, I would. Although our waitress was nice, the food was less than mediocre. The crab legs and shrimps were well over cooked, and the seasoning was bland... I could still taste the ocean on my food. They still advertised an all you can eat special that had been expired for months. Horrible restaurant with horrible cooks and poor management.

    Absolutely terrible service. It seems as if they are constantly understaffed. The food was good, but for the price and service we received it was awfully overpriced. Will not be back just solely off the service we did NOT receive.

    The music was way too loud!!! You couldn't hear the person next to you much less the waiter. The food order was wrong. I had hair wrapped up in my linen napkin. The waiter was waiting on too many tables at once so getting anything from him took a long time. The food was dropped off at the table with out any cocktail sauce, tarter saice, or ketchup. It took a long time to get some condiments from the waiter to start eating. The bus boy was walking around with ear buds in, couldnt here you ask him for help, and he couldnt bring you anything with out asking the waiter who was too busy also. I asked for a plate and was told to use the basket the food was served in. I am from Louisiana and was excited to try a restaurant who advertised New Orleans cuisine and eat seafood. But it was like eating in a bar with too loud of music playing. The band and DJ whad the music cranked up too loud for the small space. I was very dissappointed.

    My husband and I had reserved a table for 6:30 we didn’t get our food until after 7:30! Yes we waited a hour and no waitress came to our table . Finally we stopped a young man name Arthur and he took our order, he did apologize for us having to wait so long. He was really nice and we weren’t his table but he took care of us. Now I ordered the snow crab leg bag and my husband the red fish. My husband said his food was good but mine wasn’t. The crab legs weren’t fresh they had a very nasty after tases. The manager name Mike came out and replaced my food and our drinks. The food I received the second time was a lot better still not great. But I can’t say enough good things about the manager and Arthur they made what was about to become a bad night a very pleasant one. We also had the crab bites, now they were really really fresh and delicious. The band came later in the evening playing good music and I enjoyed them a lot. The selection of songs was right on point because there was a mixed crowd and everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. So at the end of it all we had a really nice experience at the Crab Spot and I would recommend going on a Saturday evening when there’s live music. The drinks were good but I wouldn’t recommend you ordering the snow crab legs if you know good seafood. The manager Mr. Mike went above and beyond to make sure we had a good experience. I will be returning for the crab cake bites and drinks and entertainment .
