Prepared seafood is not fresh, fish zapped in the microwave, very old crab cakes, served burnt, made with claw meat and brown weird seafood stuffing yuck! left them on the plate. No one asked if we enjoyed our meal. Cashier talked on the phone and never acknowledged me paying. Acoustics terrible, bring your earplugs or plan to yell across the table. NEVER AGAIN! Should have walked out when food was served. it was that bad, folks.

They have several options for seafood lovers. Four of us dined in And had combination dinners that included muscles, snow crab, lobster, corn on the cob and more!Kid-friendliness: I know it was very appropriate for teenagers and they have driven themselves and had 5 star treatment as well.

The food and service was great! Unfortunately, it was so noisy in the restaurant that we could hardly hear each other talk. The restaurant has a hard ceiling and the noise just reverberates. Some acoustic panels would good a long way toward reducing the noise level and making it a more pleasant experience.

This is an awesome seafood restaurant that is right on the water. Great views from anywhere in the restaurant. The grouper was incredible. The grilled shrimp was so tasty! I would recommend this place to everyone. Our waitress, Kelsey was awesome!

Had a very nice mojito. Our waitress was Kelsey. She was very good at guiding me through my food choices. Since I have gluten and dairy allergies, sometimes picking things I can eat is tricky. I had the grilled shrimp, which was fabulous-great seasoning-and potato salad and coleslaw. Will be back. The views are great and they were feeding the resident birds.

The food is forgettable. Service is average. I had the clam linguine with a side of little necks, and everything was tasteless. Clams were overcooked. My wife's jambalaya was meh. I saw some dinners plowing into buckets of crabs. They seemed to enjoy them.Parking: Cramped dirt parking lot

We love the Crab Plant. It is cash only, but they have a great outdoor seating area near the water. Tracy is our favorite server. ❤️
