Non-gluten free chicken, fries and beans
Hunter K.

The staff were super friendly. Unlimited refills in soft drinks! The prices overall were kind of high, but I get everybody's got a business to run. Very cool that the place was featured on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Nice to have a menu that is clearly labeled gluten free. The place was bustling for a weekday! Clean and plenty of indoor/outdoor seating room.

MAC AND CHEESE
Chyna Q.

This food was extremely overhyped. I ordered fried shrimp, fries, and mac and cheese. The shrimp was the best part. The fries were just okay (needed salt) and the mac and cheese was inedible and tasted like nothing but noodles and heavy cream. Nothing had flavor. We had spiked arnold palmer which was delicious, but for the sticky tables and long lines it wasnt delicious enough to make me come back.

LITTLE WHITE, COLE SLAW, FRIES
Kelly M.

Who doesn't want fried chicken!! Actually it was the pimento cheese grits that sold me, loved it! My little white (2 pc white meat chicken) w two sides was so tasty. The fried chicken was crispy and seasoned just right. The magical cabbage (ok, coleslaw) was out of this world. This is from a non-coleslaw eater. I enjoyed the vinaigrette dressing in the cabbage. It's counter service and the staff was as friendly as can be. It had a cute dining room that was fun , with pictures of Guy Fieri from "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives", of course a selfie was in order!

Grilled Chicken tacos with corn
Libby P.

Mom and I stopped for a quick bite. The place is adorable and the girls behind the counter were super nice. They had a taco special today. Mom got grilled chicken tacos with the corn. I got shrimp tacos with extra crispy tots. Every bite was absolutely delicious.

We got the 3 jumbo tenders. **be sure to check your heat** I got novice and my boyfriend got hot Nashville heat. All our sides were messed up so it took some time to fix those. I finally took a bite of my chicken and my eyes were watering. I confirmed two times that it was novice heat... it definitely wasn't. I couldn't eat mine so i brought it home, the next day, my boyfriend ate it and confirmed it was Nashville heat. There's no way to know as there's no stickers or anything- please learn from us and be a bit more bothersome if you think your heat level is wrong.

3 tenders with collards and pimento cheese grits
Bonnie Z.

Excellent lunch today! Order at the counter, grab your fountain drink and find a seat inside, outside screened area or outside. Featured on Diners Drive ins and Dives. Known for the fried chicken. I had the tenders with collards and pimento cheese grits. Choice of heat on the chicken. Mine were novice which had a perfect tinge of heat. My husband had the Motherclucker sandwich. He opted for novice spice as well. Huge pieces of chicken perfectly cooked. Super tender and juicy with a nice fried crunch. Two thumbs up from us

Some of the best seafood I have ever had! I came here with a…read moreparty of 4 on a Tuesday night during the fall and got sat right away, but I imagine this place is very busy in the summer. This place is a great value for all the seafood you are getting. My party of 4 split two shrimp dinners and we were all stuffed at the end, struggling to finish it all. They give you some shrimp to try when you get there which is a nice touch. It helped us figure out what we wanted. We needed up getting 1 shrimp dinners with the shrimp fried, and 1 shrimp dinner with the shrimp broiled. The fried ones were eh, not bad but nothing special. However, the broiled with butter ones were spectacular. If you don't like a TON of butter, you can ask for it on the side. We didn't know about this hack until after and I wish we had done it. Whatever you get here, you have to try the hush puppies!! The best hush puppies I've ever had. They also give you a soap bath for your hands after which is a very nice touch, as your hands get really dirty from all the butter.

There seems to be a more spacious feeling to the restaurant and the brick work is now a bit lighter in color. As always, the scallops were cooked to perfection as well as the salmon! This place always has a great vibe! I have written a couple of other reviews on Yelp or maybe it was Open Table for Crabdaddy's in the past and always 5 stars. I've been coming here for 30 years and never have had a negative experience! If visiting or new to the island put this on the list you won't leave disappointed. Strongly encourage making reservations as they're always busy! That's a good thing!

I've eaten here probably five times over the past year and a half and it rarely disappoints…read more Definitely an island stalwart. You can't go wrong with the crab soup as a starter. Any fish over angel hair pasta is exceptional. Their blackened fish can be hit or miss... had the blackened grouper last week and it was good, but a little heavy on the seasoning, at the expense of being able to taste the fish. And the bread pudding, my god, the bread pudding. This is one of my all-time favorite desserts and I would put Crabdaddy's bread pudding up against any other restaurant on the island. Service is usually excellent, too. Easily in my top five restaurants on SSI.

This place is one of St.Simons Island's hidden gems! Featuring a mix of seafood and American-style…read morecuisine with some southern flair, the food is quite delicious! I highly recommend their buffalo crab dip, a concoction that is a buffalo cheese dip served with fresh lump crab. You can really taste the crab in this dish. They don't skimp on it at all. The most clever thing that they did here, though, is to serve it with wonton chips. It's something that's truly unique, as most restaurants would serve a dish like this with regular chips. The wonton chips are a treat unto themselves, having great wonton flavor. However, when you combine it with the dip, it really takes it over the top. Highly recommend. For my entree, I had their Cajun Alfredo pasta. It is linguine served in a "Cajun-spiced Alfredo sauce". It is "served with tasso and smoked sausage", and you can choose to have it with either chicken or wild GA shrimp. In either case, once again, they do not skimp . You get a heaping portion of either chicken or shrimp, and the sauce is very tasty. It is just as described, an Alfredo sauce with a little Cajun flavor, though it is not spicy. It is served with no sides, but no sides are necessary as it is a hearty portion all by itself. Very delicious. The most impressive thing that I saw is that the owner is very hands-on. They have these new-fangled mobile electronic lamps, and the owner came by and noticed that ours wasn't quite working. He replaced it immediately himself. He was very friendly and chatted us up. He also went around and was serving and clearing tables himself. It seems that if you eat here, there's a strong possibility that you could end up meeting the owner! Meeting him was a very nice touch. The only thing that I had a hard time with here was choosing a dish because everything looked so good on the menu! Delicious food and great service. I strongly recommend this place!

The space looks great, and it was exciting to see them expanding into dinner service. I went in craving a good burger and ordered the Smashburger, upgrading to the truffle fries... and wow. Sooo good. The burger was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and everything you want from a smash-style burger. The truffle fries were absolutely worth the upgrade--crispy, indulgent, and hard to stop eating. Overall, a great first dinner experience post-renovation. We're excited to come back and try more of the dinner menu. Highly recommend checking it out!
