Customer service at its worst. This place started off on a sour foot when we greeted the hostess. Snarky attitude, jackhole manager "crabby Steve" missed out on a huge tip. We are visiting next week and definitely not spending our money at this un-wellcoming establishment. If I could give a zero, this place deserves. UPDATE: We walked over to La Cocina. They were welcoming and didn't cop an attitude. If you are looking for a a great experience with a gracious staff and good food, visit La Cocina. read more

Extremely rude. Older guy mansplained what open and closed hours mean when there were zero signs, talked down to us, and said that if we didn't have the proper wristbands we "obviously" weren't welcome there. Please don't support this white trash business. read more

Enjoyed a fun, casual lunch here with our big family on vacation! Be warned- you can not access this spot from the road (unless you are a guest at the resort) and it is cash only. If you are enjoying a beach day on 30A however and have bills on you, you are set for beautiful views, perfect casual seaside fare, and welcoming service. Our group of 10 came up from the beach and enjoyed drinks, including very delicious and unique margaritas, and had lunch. I ordered the crab cake sandwich. A generous and crabmeat forward crab cake done up almost like a burger with lettuce and tomato and some sort of mayo/remoulade/aioli. The sandwich was the perfect accompaniment to the view of the waves rolling in. I would note that the prices are definitely high for the kind of food you are getting. Clearly the seafood was high quality but the prices seem to reflect a much more elevated establishment. Overall, I will definitely be returning on my next visit, but would caution those driving in from the beach or who, like myself, never carry much more than $5 cash on them. read more

Quite a wait. They are doing their best with social distancing. Ordered a Grouper wrap with sweet potato fries. Wife got the Crab Cake Sandwich and a Piña Colada. The grouper wrap was good but a little undersized. The sweet potato fries were awesome. The piña colada was also really good although a touch sweet so I would definitely recommend getting the dark rum floater. Wife really enjoyed the Crab Cake sandwich. Overall the food was good with a great view. The wait was long because Coronavirus distancing and limited capacity, but what o her options are available at the moment. read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. The adult hostess and owner was incredibly rude from the moment we arrived. We felt like we were an inconvenience for wanting to eat at their restaurant. Worst experience I've ever had. Update...instead we walked to La Cocina...fantastic experience! Service was great and food was delicious. read more

Tried this restaurant for lunch since we are staying at High Pointe Condo. The California Chicken sandwich was delicious...highly recommend it. Also, big fan of their sweet potato fries. We are their several times during our vacation. Good food & service! read more

Busted during the mid day rush and everyone is freaking out running around, everyone was very rude even the manager (Steve) yelling at people to move out of his was and pushing people out of the way. Then we were putting the umbrella down and he comes running over yelling what are you doing when half the umbrellas were already down and yelled and told everyone to move. Then our waitress came around and wasn't very talkative and rude because we look young but all of us are 21 and work in the service industry. Our food took almost an hour for just burgers, when they finally came out she decided to tell us they ran out of lettuce and tomato. The burgers were so burnt they could of been used as charcoal. When we were all finished it took our waitress 20 minutes to come by and realize we had finished our food so she asked how to split it and it took her another 20 minutes to bring it. On the menu it clearly states if you are a minor theres an extra 15% but we aren't minors the waitress told us it's only 15% and told us to just pay it. If you have a rule you stick by I could show I.D. You can't just decided when you charge people 15% and when you don't. So she called her manager over and he didn't take anything serious and was laughing that's not how your treat customers. Would not recommend, food is horrible service is bad bring your own drinks to the beach so you don't have to give them any money. read more

Limited and poor menu choices, long wait to be seated and served and it was not even busy. Expensive, Not impressed.i

CHECK YOUR TICKET CLOSELY!! Read below... Bad Customer Service and super average food! I had read that in the reviews, but went anyways and regretted it and the $150 bill too. Yes you enjoy wonderful beach views, but you quickly forget that when your server is just rude and short. She seemed very bothered even to take our order. Our grouper sandwich had some weird bbq spicy sauce, not sure what it was on it that we all scraped off. She questioned us when we asked for cheese on our sandwich like we were crazy people. She said why would you want cheese on your sandwich? The food was so average. Not what I expect for a $25 sandwich. Plus, at the end, she came with an electronic credit card scanner and stood no lie 4 inches from my face to see what tip we were leaving her. She also already clicked on giving herself an automatic 25% tip. Thankfully i caught that and changed it to 20%. I have no problem giving a generous tip, but this service was so bad and then standing over me until i finished was crazy. Never will come back here again. Ruined our last day lunch at the beach. With so many wonderful restaurants on 30A, don't make our mistake. read more

Best place on the beach with beach bar and great food. Full liquor bar. Daily specials. Owner always on site. Beast bartender around. Great staff. Good fresh selection of seafood. Five stars. read more

Crabby Steve's - Seafood Near Me - Seacrest, Florida

I would've loved to of tried crabby Steve's bar and Grill but we just couldn't get there easily the navigation is impossible to easily get there last year on one of the condos on the beach read more

Crabby Steve's is one of our favorite parts of visiting 30A. Amazing food, service, and views!!

So much for southern hospitality. Don't go here if you are looking for good service. Owner is so rude and brings to life the "crabby" in crabby Steve's. read more

We were in Florida for 1 whole week, 7 days. so how many were we there you would ask? well every single day, every day. it was fabulous very much loved when you are on the beach and feel like a soggy beach towel and you just want to eat with out dealing with people judging you for looking like a wet dog you go here. the food was stellar, immaculate. a dad favorite was the seared tuna sandwich and swordfish wrap also the fries.......... THE FRIES..........PERFECTION. super super super fantastic. Crabby the man went off. read more

Crabby Steve's??? More like Crabby Everyone upon departure! I've never walked into an establishment in such a good mood and departed in a such a bad mood solely as the result of one waiter. I'm a lifetime Rosemary Beach visitor (stayed at highpoint 7 years straight) and have made a number of visits to Crabby Steve's but unfortunately my most recent visit will be my last. Upon arriving with two small children, we were given a hard time regarding our request for a table that could accommodate our group, and then our waiter seemed to get pleasure out of being outright rude. When all sat at a new table after his aggressive commentary he would have to deal with Crabby Steve if we got that table .. it only took a few more commenrs from him to make us all get up and leave... There are just too many wonderful places to visit on 30A to waste time at Crabby Steve's. Lighten up! read more

This restaurant is for resorts guests ONLY!!! This is not a place for visitors to the area. Access to the restaurant is almost impossible. And don't be fooled, very limited seafood items, and very average food. Service was definitely "crabby." Sadly, what we thought was to be a fun lunch was a disaster. Don't waste your time. read more

Don't expect to be able to access this place. GPS takes you to a private property with a locked gate and no code to get in.

Very displeased with the service. Staff is not polite. My husband and I were on our honeymoon and stumbled across this place on a walk down the beach. After waiting several minutes in the sun, we went to the bar to grab two drinks to take back to our beach spot. We were rudely turned away for not having our ID's. My husband and I are clearly not underage and did not carry our wallets with us since we were at the beach. We merely packed some cash for our beach attendants. We noticed that other adults and individuals at the bar were not asked for ID. There were no signs posted that we could see saying that ID was necessary. While I know it is a requirement and understand the liability and legal issues, I would have appreciated a sign or just a reminder that they were going to check before waiting and wasting time. read more

Great lunch spot on the beach - Heard best drinks on the beach but either way solid great view and anything is great on the beach. I had steamed shrimp. read more

Great view. Awesome service and friendly staff. Perfect sunset spot. Prices were decent for the area. We will be back!!

Crabby Steve sure does have some crabby staff members. Food and drinks are great but service is bad. We've been coming to this cute little bar for years. We've had great service but July 2020 staff members need an attitude check. I know this Covid stuff sucks but stop using it as an excuse. We know what "social distancing" means, you don't have to tell us 10 times. If the bartenders were friendlier, the tips would be a lot better. read more

Great drinks and view. Terrible food. My friend ordered the BBQ pulled pork sandwich and I ordered the shrimp cocktail. The sandwich was very soggy with bland pork. My shrimp were tiny and NOT fresh. Very fishy smell and taste. read more

Food is very good. Drinks can be weak. Service can be hit or miss. Grouper wrap was good - surprisingly spicy.

You can't get to this restaurant. It's in front of a gated resort. Drove around for 20 minutes trying to find it. Finally just gave up.

Fantastic food! We are here on recommendation of a friend for the grouper sandwich. Out of this world food, spectacular service and amazing view of the beach from the top of the dunes. Awesome service as well. Best meal experience we'be had in 4 days here at Rosemary. Don't leave it off your list!!! read more

There was a very long line for to-go orders. It was basically one-in/one-out for to-go orders, which seemed extremely inefficient. I waited in line for about 45 minutes. When it was my turn to come in and place an order, a large group that was staying at the resort walked in front of me and started to place an order. So it was now going to be another 15-20 minutes before I could order. I finally got frustrated and left. Very disappointed. read more

Bartenders were pleasant, the owner was the biggest jerk I ever met in my life. So much that my husband walked away but I was determined his bad attitude wasn't going to stop me from having a daquari on the beach but I do hate I contributed any money to his establishment. He truly lives up to his name, crabby Steve. When I say I have never met someone so rude in my life. So I'll tell you how this played out.. my husband and I walk up and there is a sign that says wait to be helped. So we waited, and waited. No one came. The bar had two people sitting as it so we walk up to the bar. Suddenly an older msn appears and says excuse me what are you doing ? We said oh we just wanted to get a drink at the bar. He says, can't you read? It says wait to be helped, so we go back to the sign and wait where there is no one else waiting. A very nice waitress walks by and says, do you guys need help and we say we just want to get a couple drinks at the bar, she says sure no problem, you can just go up and have a seat. Next thing we know, crabby Steve is in our face asking us what we are doing. I said well this waitress just told us to have a seat at the bar. He says don't listen to her she works for me. So we go back to the sign and wait. My husband leaves. 4 people walk past me while I wait. 2 kids 2 adults and they go straight to the bar. At one point he told me I could leave. read more

Forget crabby, owner is incredibly disrespectful and rude. Can not recommend. Entitled and does not welcome travelers. Proceed with caution if you aren't a local. read more

We loved the service and food here. Glad to know Steve isn't so crabby! Loved the spicy tuna salad, fish sandwiches, kids menu!

I have never been treated so poorly from a restaurant much less any establishment. As soon as we walked up from the beach to be seated for lunch a man approached us to be seated and because we asked for a table where there was the least amount of sun the man replied what's wrong with this table in a sarcastic voice? We stated well we just walked a ways to get here so we prefer to be out of the sun, then he proceeded to argue the point so I said well we are your customers and requesting the other table that had some shade so can you please ask if we could have the table? The place was not even busy mind you. He replied just because you are the customer doesn't mean you get your way! Turns out he is the owner and I see why this is called Crabby Steve. He needs anger management as well as etiquette classes. read more

Very Florida Keys like if you know what I mean. Kinda funky, gorgeous gulf views and excellent food and drinks. Little challenging to get to but worth it. Grouper is very fresh! read more

Wellllllll...we knew this was a beachside restaurant, but the pictures online appear to show some sort of indoor seating - nope. All outside. And the older gray-headed guy that about knocked out our daughters allowing a surfer to butt through, well...my husband said he's "dog-sh*t" like the store bought guacamole we ordered. Anyway - don't waste the steps. Head on over to anywhere but Crabby Steve's....where the food and drinks suck and the service is worse. And no oysters - so do not believe the online pics!

I had the grilled shrimp wrap with a side of cole slaw Delicious and the shrimp were perfect! So fresh Would love the recipe for the slaw! read more

I ordered the grill cheese and was not allowed to substitute fries for chips even though I offered to pay extra. #mybosswontallowme

Food is ok, nothing special. Grilled oysters are a good appetizer. Has some alligators outside that are fun for kids.

Our favorite beach lunch spot when we visit the area. We don't mind the wait during busy season. Specials board is yummy, and kids are always happy with their food. Love the staff and particularly love when we get to see Steve. It's nice to know that the owner has no qualms helping the staff when orders need to be taken or tables need to be bused. read more

This used to me me and my family's favorite restaurant to visit, but we recently went and the owner was very rude to us. I do not recommend this place, unfortunately. read more

Crabby Steve's is the best beach bar if you are staying in Waters Edge. The drinks are great and the food is even better. Enjoy yourself and see if you can meet Mr Crabby Steve! I recommend the Cat 5 pina colada!!! read more

You can only access via the beach. Every other way is gated. Besides that, cool spot. Nothing fancy.

We have lived here for 4 years, and walked by this place many times while strolling the beach. It closes in the off season and busy during peak season. Today was the sweet spot for eating lunch here. Spring break over, and summer crowd not here yet. We made the walk down from Inlet Beach, got seated right away as not very busy. Service was great, drinks were good. Food????? Well, left a little to be desired. We ordered the grilled gulf shrimp for an appetizer. They were bad, not freshly grilled but obviously cooked a few days ago and somewhat warmed up, chewy and gross. The coleslaw had a funky fishy taste to it and I had to spit it out in my napkin. Ordered chicken wings, which were ok. Ordered the $30 lobster roll that was the daily special. It was lobster (I think?) mixed with Mayo, mushy tomatoes and limp lettuce on a .... HOTDOG bun. 2 bites and I couldn't eat it. The french fries that came with it were good. Hot and crispy crinkle fries. Yum and thank goodness because it was all I ate. I think they need to stick with bar food, things they can throw in a deep fryer and stop with the very expensive menu items they can't pull off. Again, each had a drink and ordered food.... Bill was $129 for 2 lunches that were pretty inedible. Was a let down for us, but now we know we weren't missing anything special. Wonderful waitress . read more
