First time visiting Big Mikes Crab House and Grill with my wife and kids and I have to say even before the rest of the review I was already kind of partial to their cool name. When we first arrived inside the restaurant we were asked by the waitress if we would like to sit inside or out and we chose to sit outside since it was a nice day. Once at our table our waitress took our drink order and it was quick to come. Also I must mention that our drinks were cold and full of ice which you wouldn't think would be a big deal but when you are used to going to restaurants where they treat ice like it is some kind of precious commodity its nice for a change. It was also nice that there were other choices on the menu especially since my son is not fond of most kind of seafoods. We ordered the loaded hush puppies for our appetizer and they were covered in crab meat and awesome. The crab cakes, scallops and steamed shrimp that my wife, daughter and I had were great and cooked just right. My son and I had the "broasted" chicken as well which was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and tasted superb. The waitress was great, she was polite and quick. I only wish I could remember her name because whenever I have good service I like to include the wait staff's name in the review to give credit where it is due. Last but not least I visited the inside of the restaurant before leaving just to give some props to the guys cooking the food also which was well received by them both. Thanks Big Mike's it's hard to find good seafood when your not near the shore but you satisfied the craving. We will be back.
