The place is always empty and service is a little strange but the food is good. The house sauce is really good.

Went last night to celebrate three birthdays and the service and food was excellent. We had one pound of the headless you peel large shrimp, crab legs, corn, potatoes and sausage. Everything tasted great, we really enjoyed the restaurant atmosphere and friendly staff. Thanks for a nice evening!

Just not a fan of the way the seafood is cooked/steamed.We did a T5 meal of blue crab, snow crab, sausage, potato and corn.It was watery and had too much oil/butter.We requested Old Bay seasoning, but it didn’t really taste of it.It ended upsetting my kids stomach and he threw up.I guess we much prefer a different style of steaming/cooking.We gave it a shot and probably won’t do it again.

We have driven by this restaurant many times so I wanted to try it. I don't usually leave bad reviews, but having said that here goes.We went at 7:30pm on a monday, the place was empty.There was one man at a table and a couple at the bar.The servers did not speak very clear Engish, but were very nice.When our food came it was a real disappointment. My crab cakes were mushy and the onion rings were greasy. My husband said his shrimp and fries were ok. However he had to take a tums when we got home.We will not return nor recommend this place to anyone!!!There are much better places to eat in Auburndale and Winterhaven.

It's a fun, casual environment great with friends or family. We did big family boil; the crab and potatoes and mussels and clams were great, shrimp and crayfish was a little work (to remove shells) but good, and the corn on the cob was a little over cooked. This beer select was a little limited and the fun drinks were good.

My friend took me here for my first seafood boil and I have to say this place was great! The shrimp, snow crab, and blue crabs were well seasoned and tasted fresh. Service was very friendly and were great on refills. We went in around 4 on a Monday so it was pretty slow. The fried catfish was well seasoned and battered as well. If you’re in the area I highly recommend!

Stopped in cause this place looked yummy. Had some great seafood. I love crawfish.. there's were a little hard to open, but still yum. I got medium sauce, but it tasted mild. Should've gotten hot! It filled me up. Not disappointed.

We love coming to The Twisted Crab. Every time we eat here we get great food and service. It’s a very quiet restaurant. The music is never too loud, there’s never too many people. We love to get their combo dinner to share. We recommend to all friends and family whenever they are in town.
Great food, service, and atmosphere. There wasn't a bunch of people, the music wasn't blaring loud and had a very nice date night here for a good price. Crab legs, shrimp, and hush puppies were delicious. Give it a try, I'll be going back anytime I'm in the area from now

Only minor details like lighting could be improved in some areas but can't beat draft beers for 1.99 from 4 to 8. We were a table of five and we ordered two meal combos the T1 and T4. The sauce we chose was really savory highly recommend the garlic butter and the calamari had a nice crunch.

The food is good here but the atmosphere is off somewhat, in that the space lacked some color. Lighting was adequate but the entire mood felt dim. Probably for lack of color. The restaurant staff were friendly, the food tasty, and good portions. If not for the atmosphere rating of a two, I would like to have given this restaurant four stars. If you enjoy seafood you should still dine here, because even if the colors seemed dull to me, you may find the decorations lively.Parking: The parking lot at this location is large, with plenty of space between vehicles.Kid-friendliness: I dined here with nephew and his family, he has four children and they enjoyed coloring, the children menu selections, and the entire experience. This is a family friendly restaurant!
