Have they earned the name Saucy Crab? Of that there can be no doubt, their sauce's seem like they're not pre made and even if they are I don't care who made them they earn their check that day.
The menu is very traditional and classical as far as what you would expect from places like fish fries and crab shacks often found in places like Louisiana or as novelties in California sea areas.
However they seem to be under new management or the owner has been slowly adding certain items to the menu that are of an Eastern origin, not that I'm complaining.
I wasn't expecting to see fried rice on the menu and you can tell it was a recent addition because the menu could barely fit it, as well as having written in marker you can order some dishes with low main noodles.
Customer service is 2nd to none, the tables are nice and wrapped, and if you truly enjoyed yourself it has become tradition for people to write positive things or mention that they had a good time on various pieces of wood around the building, but please keep it related to wooden material as you can see in my pictures.
They also don't seem to mention it but they should really advertise that they have gator meat, it might not be a delicacy in places like Louisiana or Florida, but in Chicago that kind of meat is rarely found or on a restaurant menu.
The only thing they need now to give off a more exotic vibe and hybrid mix of a Louisiana crab shack with some Eastern noodle sprinkles, is the legendary classical traditional dish known as fried okra you get some of that in and I can promise, people will dip all the sauces in it.
I look forward to my next visit and...
Read moreDined here 2-19-2024 for an early dinner. The place was clean Nd the service was fast and accurate. Our server was the bald Indonesian guy I forgot his name but he did an amazing job. I ordered the lobster tail and headless shrimp, it came with 2 potatoes and 2 corn on the cob, I could have eaten all veggies with the pig seasoning alone. I also had a side of broccoli with my phone and the seasoning was phenomenal. The shrimp was a pound and I had a ton of it left over to take home. The lobster lacked a bit though felt like it shouldn’t have been cut in half just the meat pulled out of the shell. It felt like I was missing a significant portion or that it shriveled up during cooking. I also had their margarita, it came with margaritaville tequila and they only have that and Jose Cuervo as an option. If you order the margarita get it on the rocks with the strawberry and raspberry flavors mixed together. Also make sure you have a short sleeve shirt on as it gets messy. I would...
Read moreI'm from Chicago residing in Atlanta, Georgia. I visit family and college friends annually on my summer vacation. My mom and I were reluctant to patronize this establishment because of the reviews. I can honestly say, I REALLY ENJOYED the service, drinks, and DELICIOUS CRAB BOIL!!! Wibo (our server who'd just moved from Atlanta) was/is AWESOME!!!! He recommended one of the best crab boils and Amazing Margaritas (I believe the name of the beverage is Great Margarita). We promised Wibo (I hope I'm spelling his name correctly) that we'd return before I left for Atlanta. Not only did we return a second time, our female server was just as kind and informed my mom and me she'd let Wibo know we returned as promised. I'm looking forward to bringing friends and additional family members next...
