Mini’s Crab & Shrimp takeout — Restaurant in Saint Petersburg

Steamed-to-order Cajun/garlic blue crabs, shrimp, conch, corn & sides!

The garlic shrimp & corn are a must & of course the crabs.

There are 2 styles: Cajun steamed whole crabs Garlic sauce crabs: steamed, shell removed, cracked in half, thrown into a wok with garlic sauce!

Note: Cash only! This place is a hidden gem. We live relatively nearby and never knew it existed. We tried it today and will definitely be back. It's take-out only. You place your order at a small window, and then come back to pick it up. There were a few people in line in front of us, it took about 10 minutes to get our food. It was still hot when we got back home to eat it. Other comments mention rudeness. We didn't experience any rudeness, or have any negativity. My guess is that there may be some language misunderstandings happening. Unexpectedly great place,...

not even a restaurant, they're just selling fish and you have to stand and wait around for someone to even notice you. They can at elastic the name so nobody else has to be lied too when they look this...
