I went to Ocean Crab and I will say this--the owner is very nasty…read more There's a little skinny Chinese guy (the owner) who acts like no mistakes can be made and he is NOT a man of his word. I ordered food and what I asked for was not even in my order. So I called to let them know. He told me when I come back I could get another plate or something else and I wouldn't have to pay, especially since I live far. When I got there, his whole attitude switched. He got aggressive and said, "why would I tell you that? nothing is free." I didn't even get to eat my food. Now let's talk about the atmosphere. Ever since they started playing loud music in there, it's just not the same. It's NOT kid-friendly at all. It's supposed to be a restaurant, but the mixed vibe is off. It turns into something else at night and honestly, it doesn't feel safe. If you go later when it's crowded, just know what you're walking into. Don't look at nobody wrong, don't drink too heavy, don't bump into anyone--because it can turn into a fight real quick. The ONLY positive thing I will say is Sandra the bartender--A+. If you do go, go to her. She's really good at what she does. But overall, the service, the attitude, and the environment is not it for me.

I wish I would have gotten 2 since only 1 piece of fish came on the sandwich. I chose Flounder & it was amazing the staff was friendly also! They gave us free lemonade & sweet tea. We also had the chicken, potatoes & mac n cheese that was good. I will definitely go back when I am in town. Parking was available directly in front of the establishment. .

I've been wanting to visit here for a loooong time, and randomly decided to try this place out. So…read morehere's the thing, the shrimp was very tough maybe over cooked? Both the fried shrimp and the shrimp in the salad were overly cooked. Sorry to say but the seafood salad which is usually my favorite thing to order at seafood restaurants was NOT good, don't waste your money or time. The crab legs were very sizable and full of flavor, I mean it's what you would expect nothing too out of ordinary. I would definitely come back for the crab legs and I saw the blue crabs were $18 for half dozen, which is the most affordable I've found in the city! But the cooked food, I don't think I'll try the shrimp again, I am eager to try the fried fish, hopefully that won't be disappointing. Three stars for me!

I got half a bushel and 1.5lbs of shrimp. My shrimp were sooo mushy that I had to throw more than half away. The ones I could eat broke in half, and almost melted in my hands from how mushy it is. I just pray I don't get sick. Seriously disgusting. My crab were similarly cooked as well. I hope my husband and I don't get food poisoning from the cook on this food. The owners and management of this restaurant should be ashamed of themselves for the quality of food they're producing. If your reading this, I beg of you not to visit this establishment. Lesson learned. Will never return here. I rather eat gravel then return here.

What a horrible experience. It was very unfortunate. My friends live in the area and were raving…read moreabout this place. However, we were all disappointed. As soon as we walked in we thought it was going to be a great experience. We were greeted by the friendly hostess. Then our waiter came over and took our orders. There were 6 of us. 2 of our friends were already seated 15 min prior to our arrival and ordered their food and drinks. However, by the time we ordered our items they still were waiting on theirs. We ordered drinks and simple meals such as chicken tenders and fries. We waited 45 min for our drinks and an hour for our food. Then when we received the food it came out in carry out containers and was cold. We told the manager and she finally brought out our hot food. The chicken tenders were well seasoned but because of the wait we did not enjoy our food. The drinks were weak and we tasted absolutely no alcohol. We asked for the manager and waited for her for 20 min. She never came to the table and the waiter ended up removing the food from our bill and just charged us for the drinks. The ambiance was decent. It was a large space but relatively empty. They had loud music coming from the roof top. We saw a huge roach coming out of the door of the restaurant as well. Unfortunately, I won't return. I hope that they will improve on their service substantially.

We ordered 4 piece fish boat with cheese grits and cabbage and the fish and shrimp platter with cabbage and yams; both came with cornbread. Everything was delicious, excited for my leftovers the next day delicious. The homemade tartar sauce was a must to take a side home with our leftovers. The portions were ample. The cornbread was the only thing that didn't wow me, wasn't bad but I have had better. Our server was attentive, courtesy, and timely; she was a pleasure. I look forward to visiting here the next time I am in that part of VA.

Ambiance: The spot is historic and well kept. It was clean and we were able to find street parking. Service: The service was friendly, patient, and informal. We came on a Wednesday around noon, so it wasn't too crowded. Our waitress was attentive. Food: The food was good overall, with some standout items and some leaving more to be desired. We started with the clam chowder soup. We found it to be a bit tangy, but it got the job done. We also go the fish dinner with buffalo sauce (on the side). The fish was really good. However, the mac and cheese was grainy. The flavor of the mac and cheese was good, but the flavor is subjective. I also got the oyster po boy sandwich. I was serviceable. It didn't knock my socks off, but I have no complaints. I did enjoy the sauce that came with it. The french fries were fluffy, in a good way. The cornbread was textbook and solid. I didn't wow us, but it was a sizeable portion. Conclusion: Overall, my curiosity has been satisfied, but I didn't get the wow factor. I would consider coming here if I had a strong craving for a fish dinner.

It turns out we had been here before, and I'd completely forgotten the experience until we arrived…read morelast Thursday around 7 or 8 o'clock. The parking lot is small, and there is a pothole in the alley near the parking lot entrance that will bottom out an SUV. Apparently, there is additional parking, but we didn't see it in the dark. The restaurant is cozy, Hawaiian-themed, and clean. We were seated within moments of entering the host's periphery, and received menus and ice water within minutes. I had the poke bowl last time, and I remember it being chilled and gently flavored. The avocado and spicy mayo did a lot of the heavy lifting. It was filling and very healthy. My partner enjoyed the Ipanema Sandwich last time we visited. This time around we snacked on the fried halloumi (fried cheese and mint yogurt dip) and Lumpia, taquito-type beef rolls, with sweet and sour dip. We absolutely demolished the coconut cream pie for dessert. The pie was so delicate and lovely that even my partner enjoyed it, a typical coconut detractor. I recommend Little Nickel to anyone looking to try something unique and ambitious that veers from the well-trodden culinary path. The staff here were courteous and helpful, the restaurant was clean, and the food was firing on all cylinders.

The grilled chicken was juicy, the toppings were fresh, and the pickled onions added the perfect tangy bite. Every bite was delicious. We also tried the steak and fries, and the steak was cooked perfectly. It was a generous portion, tender, and topped with a flavorful chimichurri-style sauce. The fries were crispy and the perfect side. To top it all off, I had one of their frozen drinks, and it was so refreshing--the perfect pairing with the meal. If you're looking for a casual spot with great food, generous portions, and a fun tropical atmosphere, this place is definitely worth checking out. I'll definitely be back.
