THE CRABSTOP OF MIAMI SEAFOOD MARKET

I love going to little hole in the wall spots bc usually they're the gems of the city and the CrapStop of Miami was no exception! This place was recommended to us by a local.

A humble building featuring limited seating and an ordering counter, the Crabstop is a seafood joint that shares a parking lot with a short order sandwich spot.

We were greeted as we walked in and were given time to look over the menu. I decided on the crab and shrimp while my partner decided on the jumbo shrimp plate. We ordered a side of garlic rice bc it sounded 🔥 combos included a drink so we both got their homemade juices, a lemonade and a fruit punch/lemonade mix for myself. We recieved our food about 10 mins later.

Everything came out piping hot, steaming, and smelling delicious! Each plate included our entrees with potatoes and fried sausage, which reminded me of how my momma used to burn sausages for me in the morning 😊😊 The shrimp were a nice size and covered in sauteed garlic and butter 😍 My plate came with one set of crab legs and about 5-7 shrimp.

Although I feel there could've been more seafood, everything was tasty. There were more potatoes than anything and my only edit would be to season the butter that they coat everything in and use less. Once you get to the bottom of your plate, everything is soaking in a sea of lightly salted garlic butter which is not as heavenly as it sounds.

Also, the juice I got was entirely too sweet and I could not finish it.

All in all, service was super friendly, the food was delicious and served to us fresh, and we did get full! 😊 I would definitely give this spot another try!
