    I really enjoy this place for their amazing seafood boils! On this visit, I decided to switch things up a bit. I went for steamed oysters, 6 piece lemon pepper wings, and a catfish basket. My family chose a variety of different dishes too! The wings were pretty good, but I think I might skip the oysters and fish next time, as they didn't taste as fresh as I hoped. [[HIGHLIGHT]]On a positive note, the service was great, and the atmosphere was as lovely as always![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Very clean inside. Laid back relaxing atmosphere. Our waitress was super friendly, and check on us often. The crab fries were amazing. The scallops were a good size. The rest of the food was pretty good also.

    By far my favorite Craft Crab location. The food is always spot on. The service is always timely, friendly and welcoming. This location is spacious and typically decorated as any other location but the music and vibe here is something special. This is a regular, weekly spot for my fam and definitely a must whenever I'm in town visiting.

    The tenders were crispy & fresh. The service was very cordial. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere was quiet with very few people.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    This is THE SPOT on a Saturday when you trying to get away from Life‼ Chill, Vibe, and ask for the waitress named DYNASTY AKA "D"-

    This place is the BEST place to be on a Saturday with the BEST DJ's in Duval, ALL THE BARTENDERS are on POINT! Ask for DYNASTY AKA "D" she has THE BEST customer service and always deserves a TIP more than the usual tip. #CrafyCrabIsAWholeVibe #BlessThisPlaceForever Im just saying! The BEST Games on all BIG SCREEN TV's‼ Brotha's and Sista's! Bring ya money.

    Service and meal were exactly what we expected. Mild was not spicy it was mild. Our server Trent was absolutely awesome. He was able to answer all questions and make great recommendations. The meal was delicious. If you like crab boils, this is one of the good places. I gave it a 4 star because I expected mild to have just a little kick and there was none. Flavors were good but no spice. Get the mixture sauce. It will not disappoint. Next time I'm going for spicy. Yes!

    JAZ was our Waitress and she was excellent! The food was so delicious. Barbara had half lb. of crab legs. I had one of the specials of the night: crab legs, sausage, shrimp, potatoes, and corn on the cob. We had three sides, Cole slaw, onion rings, and hush puppies. BAM! It was delicious. I had some kind of blue drink- the name escapes me right now and Barb has a glass of white wine. I would definitely come back and highly recommended this place. A DEE JAY just set up a few minutes before we left. The decor: was way too cool. It's hard to believe that this place is a chain restaurant. I can't wait until me next visit. Housekeeping note:thankful that they provided bibs, plastic gloves and a whole roll of paper towels at each table.

    Found this place while shopping at the Regency area. It seems small but easy to see from main road. The outside looks new. The inside is well put together. You will be seated when you walk in the door. We were seated almost immediately. Our server got our drink order in almost as fast. The prices are what you expect for a restaurant that specializes on crabs. The menu does have average priced other options. The music playing was relaxing r & b or old hip hop. That was a nice change. The food had a nice taste. The portion size was a bit smaller than expected. They do offer a military discount. They have a digital jukebox on the wall. Anyone can change the music playing at any time.

    Music was great, food was full flavor. Bartender looked like he was having a great time and it was his birthday. T was our waitress and she was sweet.

    It's really nice place if you're like seafood. Yummy food and good beer. I've been there just once so this is my own opinion.

Though the parking lot was busy, I was sat immediately and noticed they were not too busy on a Friday night 7:30pm - likely an indicator of the experience to come. Kaitlyn was very friendly in greeting and throughout the meal. She was obviously the only bright spot on this experience, since you see the star rating. The soda lacked carbonation in the coke, so I mentioned it tasting off to me. I switched to an Orange Fanta, and that too lacked carbonation. Ended up just eating my spicy crab combo with no drink. Which thankfully, spicy is no where near spicy at this location. Medium at best if you order spicy. Genuinely let down, especially since it is ONE cluster for $38.99. Definitely felt this was a skip, and then was shocked when the bill came... As a party of one, I was charged automatic gratuity of 12%, which is bewildering to me. Larger parties? Totally get it! But a party of one, which I was shocked but they do list on the menu of prices. I almost tipped 20% on top of the bill, until I was looking into why it was higher than I expected. Additionally, $4.99 for a soda that doesn't even have the syrup and carbonation properly calibrated?! Wowza, what a letdown for $50+ for dining alone. If you are in Jacksonville, you are surrounded by lots of good seafood places. Big crab? Personally, a pass for me.

We ordered the crab and shrimp dip, which was yummy. For my main meal I got the fried basket with fried shrimp and calamari. It wasn't amazing. The calamari was definitely overcooked. My dad also got a fried shrimp and instead of telling him that they ran out of something they just added hush puppies without telling him, which was strange. The waiters were nice though, but overall wasn't super impressed with the food. The seafood platter seemed to be the star of the show for my group!

    Went to Food truck Friday to catch up with Mr.Lavender aka The Gumbo Man. This wasn't my first…read morevisit for sure but it is my first yelp review. The Gumbo man serves many classic NOLA staples from Gumbo, Po Boys, Boudin balls, and much more. The service is always friendly and with a smile or joke. The upside is that the food is absolutely amazing, the downside, because the food is so good, you may have a bit of a wait if the line is long. Best bet is to check his Facebook page for his location and try to make it before everyone else does. Today, I ordered my favorite, a shrimp po boy and also a large pepper jack boudin ball. The po boy is classic, French bread, lettuce, tomato, pickles, mayo, and overly loaded with very fresh shrimp. I always eat a bunch of shrimp off the sandwich before I take a bite because it's that loaded! The boudin ball was a first for me. It was a crunchy outside, and a hot smooth inside packed with flavor and goodness. I will definitely be getting this again. He never disappoints from food, drinks, to deserts The Gumbo Man has you covered. Make sure you go find him. The food is more than worth the wait, if you have to. For that real deal NOLA cuisine look no further. Enjoy! PSA-This not a restaurant, but a food truck to stop any confusion.
