    First off let’s start with the food the seasoning and amount you give for half a pound wasn’t a half a pound in the seasoning wasn’t good at all very blend to me. The service was OK. The waiters was nice . And it was very quiet in there not too much going on, but I lost it with John the waiter. When he demanded a tip after his service . He had an attitude. Wasn’t very helpful at all I to call other ppl over for help when he was spacing out .

    Overall, great! The food was fantastic! Our server was very attentive. The ambience was average, but not the best for a date, which I was on. Great if you want to go with friends or family. My only concern was they didn't provide gloves to break up the seafood. Still though, I would go back!

    We wouldn’t be going back. They have the table covers over the garbage cans . The sinks are filthy if you are a germaphobe - this is your worst nightmare.

    It was a really nice restaurant. The service was outstanding. The staff was amazing. It’s just the food was not the best, they just sucked and the portions. the food was not the greatest. The seafood tasted old, and we felt like we didn’t get what we paid for. Also, the sausage that they used tasted nasty and wasn’t even chopped up. I know for a fact it wasn’t the amount we paid for. It looked like two little turds that weren’t chopped up looked like they used them to charpen a knife. But I’m not trying to bash or hate on this place it’s just my experience, what I like to always say go experience it for yourself . Cause it could’ve just been a bad night for the place idk but the food was not good and the portion sizes were bad .

    Such a fun restaurant! The atmosphere is cute and casual, the food was delicious, the service was good, the noise was minimal, and the crowd wasn’t bad at all for a Saturday night in the city! I highly recommend The Angry Crab for a unique dining experience!
