The food is wonderful! The staff is incredible! We eat there often for lunch, and will continue to do so.Kid-friendliness: There are so many good things that children can eat. My granddaughter loves the waving cat statue near the front door!

Tried it 3 times and it was not worth the price. Caused me to go buy my own setup and I now make my own. Way better than any place in Lexington.

Way too much butter - YUCK!! The butter used is a very low quality mixture of oil and water, and there is about a pound of butter per pound of seafood. Cajun flavoring isn’t Cajun, it’s a touch of seasoning salt. Worst meal, not edible.Parking: Empty parking lot as folks aren’t going.

The first thing you notice is the cleanliness! It's been open for 2 years but looks brand new! Staff is polite and friendly. The food is absolutely amazing! Prices are great to bring the whole fam-damnly. Oh, by the way, the restrooms look like a 5 star hotel!Definitely worth the drive.

Had a good experience the first time I ate here but tonight's meal was not the best. My girlfriend ordered a drink and it came overflowing onto the table and it also did not taste right. We ordered wings as appetizers and they did not come tossed in the Buffalo like we asked. We split the Dungeness crab legs and every piece of meat was brown/black. The waiter asked how everything was and we told him our concerns and he said it was the suppliers fault. I would have rather spent my money on child support for a girl that I didn't want to be with....

We got Godzilla sushi roll and the perfect platter seafood boil hot. Everything was perfect. Food was delicious, service was amazing and atmosphere is great. Our friends got the hibachi plates and they really enjoyed their food. Definitely recommend.

Me and my husband love eating here! The employees are always so sweet and friendly, the atmosphere is super cool! It definitely makes you want seafood. I always get the chicken fried rice and shrimp with extra yum yum sauce and it's so good!

The boil i ordered was ok but the potatoes and corn weren't cooked long enough or in the seasonings. I love boils as i get them from Chicago but this doesn't come close to how it should taste. Disappointed for something i wanted to try so bad. The business is very clean and presentable. Staff were very pleasant and attentive.

Three of us shared a combination dish that was steamed in a bag and delivered to the table to be opened by the waiter. It contained King Crab, Crawfish, Shrimp, Potatoes, Corn on the cob, hard boiled Eggs all in a medium spicy broth. DELICIOUS and FILLING!! We really enjoyed the meal .. and it was easy to eat because all of the needed tools were supplied. It also helped that the King Crab was slit lengthwise for us in the kitchen making the whole opening process really easy. Great service by people who cared and a friendly goodbye by the staff when we left. Very nice experience.

I have mixed feelings about this crab house. It's a strange mix of crab boil and teppanyaki cuisine. The service was good. One thing that was disappointing was the fountain drink assortment. There was a strong cleaning chemical taste to everything we ordered from water, sweet tea and soda. When I advised the server there seemed to be no concern. The food was good. We got a crab boil bag of two pounds of crab. If I was an inspector from weights and measures I'd say it was more like one pound. I've never seen two snow crab clusters run a pound a cluster. The seasoning was good. We ordered the old bay and butter. Always a safe choice. Overall it was good. Not great but good.

Best seafood I've had in a good long time since they took Joe's crab shack out of Ohio. The catfish was beautifully fried. The portion was huge! 4 filets and a very large amount of fries. Refills were filled promptly. Waiter was so nice and sweet. Very pleasant experience. If we should chance that way again we'll stop in.

Not very busy Wednesday evening. Maybe 10 customers and 5 were us. A lot of food provided but was a little pricey.Food was good, and was served a little different than we were use to. Not much english spoken, but they repeated your order back to you to confirm.
