Pricey!First things first. After being in Danville for several months we finally decided to try out the Crab.It was a hot balmy day so walking in from outside was awesome, the air felt refreshing. We were greeted by a waitress who escorted us to our booth which was large enough for six people, very spacious. The cocktail menu was wonderful however we were there for only one thing and that was the seafood. The menu had items on top of items to choose from. We ordered the crab cakes as an appetizer, the catfish basket and the crab leg bucket. The crab cakes were a bit too spicy for my liking however the catfish was on point. It came with fries which was nice and hot and had a spicy seasoning to it. The crab bucket was a tad bit disappointing. For the price my wife received one cluster, three very small potatoes, and a small ear of corn wrapped in a plastic bag sitting in a bucket. The crabs were also spicy. Anyway long story short I paid about 80 bucks not including tip. Overall the place is spacious and clean, and the service was mediocre. The food was okay,we've had better. For the price I can honestly say I wasn't impressed, but it's something different for Danville. Will I go again you ask? I don't know it'll just depend on how bad I want some seafood. If you going for the experience then I say this is the place for you, nothing fancy but the food is okay, and trust me you will pay for it.

They have Great food there

Inside is very nice and decorated! We’ve eaten there about 10 times since they opened, and staff is always very kind and outgoingly fun. Have yet to have a bad encounter with staff or poor service.The reason my review gets 4 stars is because the sauce for the boil is a little over salted.On top of that… we’ve been going since they opened, like I said, about 10 times now. The Thursday special used to be $30 and they recently raised prices to $35. It would’ve been no big deal if it didn’t seem to be less shrimp in my bag tonight, and if they were still giving whole potatoes instead of cutting them in half. A bit disappointed in the price raise for, what seemed to us, less food!

clean and very friendly people. food was awesome and great prices

Have mercy! Beautiful location and the food was bangin'! We had a pretty diverse table of foods, and everyone loved what they ate. Go now!

Waitress did not introduce herself. The menu was deceptive to us. We ordered a meal but only got the fish and french fries. Cole Slaw was extra price. No condiments were offered and we had to ask for a fork to eat the coleslaw. The lemonade had a flavor of mold like the container may have needed to be cleaned. My suggestion would be to revamp your menu so it is understandable what you get on your plate. To us it was not a meal experience but a snack experience.

Expensive! Only seafood lovers should go....not many non-seafood options. Service was nothing to shout about. Very big place with beautiful decor minus the Christmas wreath that is still up in March. The shrimp boil was nothing like what I was used. Not worth the $$. Do not plan to go back.

Just not what I expected for the price you pay. I ordered the shrimp/scallop boil. It came with 2 small red potatoes, 1 half ear of corn, 6 shrimp & maybe 9 super thin scallops. I ordered them Cajun & hot the flavoring was on point.

The food was very hot and delicious. My youngest grandson even ate chicken and said this chicken is the best. Lemon pepper wings. Amazing, a bit too cool for me air conditioning but everything was great.

great food. and the service was exceptionally great
