The server, host was Tony and he was congenial, knowledgeable about the menu and had SUPER customer service. The ambiance and atmosphere was nautical with a real crisp and modern lighting and color scheme. We ordered the fried cod, mango salad, fried calamari, grilled oysters, crab rangon ....the entire meal was abolutely fresh. The grilled oysters might have been able to sautee the garlic a little more to carmelize before topping them on the oysters. But everything was so impressive. It was my husband's birthday and we showed the id. Our drinks were complimentary. I recommend this lovely seafood extra wonderful restaurant...they also have seafood boils with a pick of the sauce along with meatier choices like the pork ribs. We will definitely be back to try the other great food since we were not able to eat any more food...but we would have if we could have...
I've been to the restaurant several times with friends and it hasn't disappointed. Good and attentive staff providing service with a smile to patrons. Fresh, well presented meals and drinks available for purchase. The place has a bar, and indoor booth/table seating available. The restaurant is clean and well kept. They have happy hour specials and simple to follow regular menu. FREE Parking in a lot option available outside the place. Recommend.
Okay they have improved in the area of the cocktails thank God and the boil remains consistent and I believe they have expanded their menu overall. Oh did dessert the flan not so good. I will start going here more. And the amount of food for the pricing works. We like the direction for the neighborhood.
Food is delicious and ambiance is good. Bathroom is really clean which is a big plus for me for any restaurant that I go too.
Went back to this restaurant, and the service, drinks, and food were just as good. Will go again. The crab mac and cheese was super filling, two people ate; but couldn't finish it. The fish tacos were fresh and light. Added a pic of part of the $$ meal order. The crab mac and cheese was super filling, two people ate; but couldn't finish it. The fish tacos were fresh and lite. Really like the crab Rangoon. The salad was crisp and yum. The Pina coladada was good, it on the sweet side. The store manager and staff are super friendly. Food was good and well prepared. Place clean and vibing.
Food was delicious. Crab Rangoon was fresh, bright, and delicious. Blue crab boiler, added snow crab cluster. Food was amazing. Service was excellent. I will be back!
Still very good food, with some good drinks to try. I personally love mostly everything I purchase. The customer service is amazing. They care about the customer concerns and needs. The place itself is an amazing place for entertaining and just hanging out with family friends etc. I come to Baby Crab every time I get a chance for some delicious seafood food. I do love that they keep changing up the menu items and that they have really good deals as well. That means there is something for everyone. Those who may have an allergy, or whoever just don't like seafood. So in the end it becomes an affordable place to dine, while saving you a trip to find a place like this in the city. Happy Yelping!
GO HERE OMG YOU WON'T REGRET IT!!!!! I was debating to write a review because... if this place sounds too good, it'll be overcrowded with customers, and I won't be able to get a seat. EVERYTHING here tastes so unbelievably fresh. I don't understand why this place is not overcrowded yet, I really don't. I've had their crab ragoons, fried rice, and snow crab legs YUM!!!! Everything is fresh, as if the crab was alive just a second ago. IT was fully cooked when I got it, don't you worry. The day I become allergic to seafood is the day I will die, because I love this place so much. I never had a favorite restaurant before. Let me tell you. This is my favorite restaurant of ALL TIME!
Eexcellent mussels and the crab cake was good. Inwould come back again for the mussels and special cajun seasoning it was so good.
Don't walk, run to this place! I will warn you- the prices here are high but the experience is totally worth it. I've tasted the crab leg bake and a bibimbop here. Complimented with some Prosecco. Both have been amazing and so fresh! I can't wait to come here for a special occasion. Staff and ambiance are great too!
