Chico do Caranguejo Praia — Restaurant in Região Geográfica Imediata de Fortaleza

We arrived early and saw how the waiters to clean the beach. they just hide the leftovers the small metals under the sand, for hurt their children. After that, we choose a chair. and just a couple minutes after, the adjacent chair start smoke. In Brazil, is forbidden smoke even in outside restaurant, is only allowed on outside restaurant with smoker area. therefore anyone waiter stopped the smokers. After that, one angry waiter kick me off the chair, without explanation, only saying the chair will be cancelled. we went to another chair, and, after a few minutes other adjacent chair start an illegal smoke. Again, no waiter stopped the illegal smoker. And, when I'll pay, the waiter ask me to put my credit card before he select the final price. I explained that is illegal, and I only put me credit card after the final price written. The waiter became very very angry, and he started offend me, but selected the price before I put the card. Of course, this is a terrible place, with terrible managers and terrible waiters. You will see many illegal things per second, you will be offended and they really will don't...

The place it’s huge and full of entertainment when shows are on but we was a group of 7 and we went in the most famous day, Thursday to eat crabs. We ordered crab, expense as you can find for cheaper and the most expensive dish: Lobster with prawns and vegetables. The broccoli was off and I could smell from miles away, the colour was yellow/white not green and fresh and it got mixed with the rest of the vegetables. The lobster was grilled, hard and no taste at all. I’ve asked the waiter to check and he took it one brócoli to the kitchen and claimed that the chef said that he used vinegar which isn’t true! Not happy with the nonsense excuse I’ve called the manager that as soon as approached the table could smelled and she removed the platter, apologised and embarrassed for the waiter’s lack of interest in resolve this issue that could have given food poison, she didn’t even offer the same dish but removed the charge of the bill! Not a happy meal, the place it’s great, lots of seats but I would think twice in going to places that owns only reputation! Disappointed as we was really hungry and...

Awesome food, place and good quality for the price. Tried their grilled lobster and caranguejo. Both were awesome in taste, fresh seafood and cooked perfectly. We ordered grilled lobster... It was a huge portion for 2 persons. 4 medium sized lobster with loads of veggies( carrots, green olives, brocolli, peas capers) and prawn rice. This accompaniment of prawn rice had about 10-15 medium sized prawns and it was very tasty. Good place to relax a day with beautiful beach view under the coconut trees... It's a dream. Another thing is, local vendors keep selling cooked prawn/lobsters in a basket and you can take them even though you are in this restaurant. Havent tried them but many people were tasting them. Overall, beautiful place with good food. For 3 units of crabs(caranguejo- crabs which has meet only in their legs than body) and lobster we paid- 30+190R$. I found this reasonable for the quality...
