    This was probably the only Jamaican joint I've never been to on the Eastside, until yesterday. Upon reading their menu I honestly more interested in their unique burgers and other offerings instead of the typical fare. However, I went with the Brown Stew Chicken and Oxtail. The taste was just ok - didn't blow me out the water. The rice was hard and I wish I had extra "juice" to soften it up. I also kept getting big bites of ginger and the seasoning buds. I probably won't be back to order the Jamaican fare but, would try their other menu options.

    I had the Jerk Chicken, Beef Patty, and Oxtails it was really good! I recommend it to anyone who loves authentic Jamaican food!

    Jerk Chicken (cooked correctly, NOT burnt up), rice and peas, collard greens, plantains, and a corn muffin comes with it! All yummy!

    Really good food here. This place is in a plaza kinda between Chick-fil-A and Church's Chicken. Some of the best jerk Chicken in the area. Highly recommend it.

    Sooooo if I can make the time out to make a review it's worth it ... this place is actually the best Jamaican food you can ever get no cap , they are cheap as well say if you want curry or brown stew etc 12 for a space but oxtails you paying $21 man get you a plate I couldn't even finish cause I wanted to write a review and they let you taste it and what I tasted was the oxtails and brown stew chicken ... I mean 9/10 I wanna cry I love it here

    Used to be my favorite restaurant to go to. Their oxtails aren't as flavorful and they constantly turn their phone off.

    Came here a few days ago. The set up is nice but the oxtails had zero flavor and tasted about a day or two old.

    So as a New Orleans native I was certainly skeptical of this seafood because it isn't Cajun or…read moreCreole at all. The place seemingly doubles as a stock trading and training post somehow (you have to see it to understand). Needless to say my expectations were very low...I've never been more surprised by a place. While not exactly Cajun, it is seriously amazing. The shrimp are THE best shrimp I've tasted outside of the Gulf Coast. The catfish was crispy and fresh throughout. The hush puppies were cooked at the edge of crisp but maintain moisture more like cornbread than I'm used to and now that may be the only way I want them. The broccoli was fresh and buttery. Also the egg rolls are one of the best deals on the Eastside. I believe I've taste every seafood place on the Eastside and this place has the best FRIED seafood for sure. My wife and I split a (2) Fish and 5 Shrimp plate and we were both too full. The pieces they use are colossal! Only drawback is they use FROZEN crawfish, as many do when it's out of season, but it makes me question if they ever use fresh crawfish when crawfish is in season. Overall this is the best place for miles, and light years better than generic places like "Juicy Crab."

It's a hole in the wall and you wouldn't really notice it. However, I have heard great things about the restaurant through word of mouth. Upon entering the restaurant, it's a very plain aesthetic and it smells a bit fishy. It just looks like a old school fish market. They have too large freezers with crab legs and the like on the side. They have shrimp, scallops and more displayed in the middle counter where all the employees are located behind. Basically you have to pick out your own food and then tell the employees and you can either take it home and cook it yourself or they can cook it for you. I chose for them to cook it. They give all types of options for how you can have it seasoned and flavored... garlic butter, Cajun seasoning, old bay, etc. it's all pretty great stuff! When I completed my order (which was one snow crab leg, 1/2 shrimp, sausage link, corn and potatoes) they gave me a number and said 30 minutes. When I returned about 30 minutes later the food was nearly done. Once I got my food it smelled like heaven! Sooo fresh and flavorful! Everything smelled and tasted so sooo good! I will definitely be back!!

I visit occasionally, and hadn't seen very many flies flying around; on this particular visit, I saw several--however, the door was opening and closing many times. The service is great and wait times are typically 20 minutes. You may select your seafood, sides, and seasonings to make your own seafood delight! Whatever you decide, it's fresh and seasoned well. I had 1/2 lb shrimp (peeled and deveined), broccoli, eggs, and noodles with lemon pepper, Old Bay, and butter seasoning. The medium spice is definitely kicking! I am sure I'll return; it's a stop whenever I'm in the area. Hopefully, the flies are gone!

While I want to support Mr. Crab as it appears to be a Black owned business, their plate looked nice but the legs were horrible. They were overcooked, so no snap in the shells and therefore, I had to peel them open to scrape the meat out. I had a piece of corn and potato with it, which again, looked good, but was barely better than bland. Lastly, I ordered catfish. That wasn't bad really. It was maybe a 6.5 to 7 in taste and texture. I don't have a picture, but I had catfish from the same competitor once before and I would rate their catfish two points higher without pause. Overall, disappointing, Mr. Crab. Very disappointing. * I posted the same review on Google maps but, when I found my review, the pics weren't there. WTF Google? Anyway. I saw people mention staff and environment, and I agree. Super clean place and friendly staff. I did wait a good 45 mins so, I would order ahead if you want to eat there.

My salad was awesome. My lobster tails were steamed just right and seasoned excellently. I will definitely be back.
