I was in town visiting my son and his fiancé, who wanted a seafood boil. So we came to Red Crab for all the deliciousness! Our server, Courtney, was the best! She made great recommendations on the family platter seasonings- this was honestly one of the tastiest crab boils I've ever tasted. We added a pound of crawfish to the boil to round it out completely. We had so much leftover that we snacked all the next day which was amazing. We had a blast and loved the food! Super messy, totally worth it! read more

On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the highest I give the food 5. You got more oil than of the actual seasoning blend. Service was ok. Our waitress was high and smelled like weed. read more

Red Crab Juicy Seafood - 5. Weekend Lobster Special - Seafood Near Me - Ocala, Florida

I will not come back.. they mixed up mine n my kids flavors and I could have been allergic to spice and end up in the hospital... they were playing music wit cursing and I had a child with me and the corn was old and my aunts potato was rotten read more

I've eaten at Red Crab before and used to enjoy it, but this last visit was a total letdown. The lobster and shrimp were both extremely overcooked--rubbery and dry. The lobster tail had barely any meat in it, like it had been sitting out or cooked down to nothing. The sauce, which is usually the saving grace, tasted completely different and honestly not good. It felt like a new cook or owner took over and just doesn't know what they're doing. For the price, I expected way better. Definitely not coming back unless things change. read more

This place is a gem. Great food. Perfectly cooked. A little pricey but you get what you pay for!! Definitely recommend

Good really good! Really really good! Service was good! Ambience was good! Eat here cause Good!

The seafood here is soo fresh and good! Everything was properly cooked and my shrimps were just the right texture. Portions are good and Cajun Sauce is great!! Our server was very hospitable, polite and friendly. Seating was great and we did not have a wait time. I love the drink I got but I cannot remember the name of it lol! Sorry. The restaurant was clean and comfortable as well! It's a good place to meet up with friends, have some seafood and drinks and chat for a bit. Check them out if you're in the area y'all! read more

Have been going for awhile- bit pricey, but usually worth it ( tab is round 150 with crab, drinks etc.). Ee will sit in, but we have been ordering pickup the last 4 times. Last night for st paddys- we wanted crab, so placed the usual to go. Got home and it was not in the pan as usual, buplastic bag. bag. The crab ( king and snow) was like rubber bands and the meat was gone. The potatoes werent fully cooked and the corn habturned to cream corn!!! I hope they make this right, I disappointed a few people on st paddy day dinner!!!! read more

Dang! Where has this place been all my life?! Came here solo because I was on a business trip in the area. I wanted something messy, buttery, seafood broil food and this was the first place that popped up on my Yelp. With their large parking, I was able to pull in with ease and it's hard to miss. I walked in and the host seated me immediately. I ordered a 1/2 garlic butter mild headless shrimp, with white rice and a Yuengling. The shrimp was piping hot when served. It was burning through my gloves but it was so delicious that I didn't care. Their white rice is definitely Asian because it was sticky (and I freaking love Asian white rice)! I complimented the manager at the end of my dinner because I was so happy with my meal. I wish this was a chain restaurant closer to home. Or maybe... I would make the drive out to Ocala again just for this. read more

I was not able to find this on Yelp, so I am adding it for all. We ordered calamari for an appetizer and we have one twin that is allergic to seafood, so she ordered the chicken wings and the other ordered chicken tenders. My wife had the crab legs and shrimp (headless) boil - you can order it with heads on - and I ordered the Friday special: lobster tail, shrimp (headless) and snow crab boil. The calamari was decent and I didn't get a chance to try the hush puppies. Holy seafood boil, Batman! That right there is some really good food! We both got garlic butter sauce and I had the medium spice and my wife had mild. To. Die. For!! Seriously, I could eat here 2-3 times a week. The little mini lobster was decent, but the shrimp and crab legs? Just keep 'em coming!! Seriously, I can't say enough how good this was! My mercy, this is some great eats! Update: So we have been back almost every weekend since our first visit. I know it may sound crazy, but it's just that good! This visit we had the pleasure of having Sage, our server on our very first visit, serve us again. Just as she did on our first visit, she was fast and efficient and even found two little forks for digging the crab meat out of the legs. If you plan on going, ask for her section/tables. Another update: Red Crab Juicy Seafood: Alright, y'all...you have had at least a 2-week break from me rambling on about how excellent this place is - but that is over!! We purposely took a break just to remember what other food tastes like on our weekend nights out. We did some Chinese, we did some Mexican, some all-American breakfast places and tonight we circled back to see if 1) it is really as good as we believed it to be, and 2) we were just enamored with some place new and once we took a break it would just be "meh" when we came back. Seriously, the food here is just phenomenal. I mean the spice mix, the food freshness, the speed at which you are served - everything. We got the snow crab legs with shrimp boil, which comes with little corn on the cob and red skin potatoes, the twins got chicken tenders and wings and everybody loved it. It is not a fluke. This place rocks. And I would be doing our server, Sage, a huge disservice if I didn't give her huge props. She not only remembered us, but she remembered our drink orders, what we were having as entree's. She does an absolutely fantastic job each and every time. She ROCKS! Coronavirus Update: Red Crab Juicy Seafood: Carry Out version. To be fair, we live approximately 30-35 minutes away from the restaurant, so the food had cooled just a little, but we used the insulated bags from Sams Club to keep everything as warm as possible. That being said, AWESOME!!!! We got our usual order: 1 pound of shrimp, 1/2 pound of snow crab, garlic butter (one mild, one medium), 1 pound of sausage and an order of chicken tenders. Amazingly, everything stayed very warm and the flavors? Oh my, so delicious! It was almost like eating out...except we had our dogs hoping we'd drop something. Well done, Red Crab!! read more

Have been going here for years and will not be returning. Prices have gotten higher, and portions smaller. Why would I pay more than I used to for less food and seemingly lower quality crab? What all is in the photo is $40!!!!! read more

Red Crab Juicy Seafood - 4. Thursday Special - Seafood Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Pricey but worth it! The ambiance leaves a little to be desired but the seafood is fresh, hot, juicy and just gooooooood. Step one - pick your seafood or go with a combination. Step two - pick your flavoring. We picked all three choices! Step three - Pick your spice level. I got medium and it was tasty but not too hot. read more

Every single time we love this place more and more, the food is perfect and their service is exceptional

Actually 4.5 Skylar was a great waitperson accomodating & always there at all the right times. This young girl has the makings for a great career in the food & beverage industry. Clearly an up & coming superstar. Sean- See you soon! Great place with a full bar. Everything was sensational All foods a clear 10* except calamari was a 19* Downside no coleslaw, no salads Cajun fried not well seasoned. Frozen onion rings are a disgrace. Make your own, thin sliced with a crispy breading. Fried shrimp large & tasty. read more

This place is great. I got the snow crab, shrimp and clam with all the seasonings and medium spice. It was fantastic. The sauce is great and was Fantastic for dipping the potatoes in as well. I would recommend asking for more potatoes, you will be glad you did. The service was great and the ambiance was casual and nice. Not a quiet place but not super loud. All around great place to eat. Highly recommended read more

Red Crab Juicy Seafood - At Home Depot in Lady Lake - Seafood Near Me - Ocala, Florida

Fantastic Christmas Day dinner. Super quick service and waitress was very attentive. The low country boil was excellent. I will come back for sure. Our entire group was well satisfied. The atmosphere was bright and there were plenty of tv's to watch football! read more

Seafood restaurant located in strip mall. The pictures of the food on the window was enticing. Great draft beer prices! Ordered the fried oyster basket with Cajun fries as an appetizer. Lightly battered and fried to perfection! Good oyster flavor. Ordered the Low Country boil which I make at home. Ordered it in garlic butter sauce and hot with shrimp, sausage and snow crab. Not your traditional low county boil but interesting. You could literally see the garlic- on the shrimp, sausage and crab. Hot was just the right amount of heat. All was perfectly cooked. My only complaint was the snow crab were very skinny legs! And one knuckle had zero meat in it. Overall, good meal and I will return. read more

All I can say is Delicous. I am a seafood lover and there is nothing better than a flavorful crab boil. The snow crab legs had a hint of sweetness that mixed well with the spices. I love that you can get 1/2 LB of certain items. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the food items and made excellent suggestions. The food came out fast and hot and I ate until I couldn't eat anymore. And it's all reasonably priced. The waiter was great with food questions but not so much with drink questions. I think he was too young to drink LOL The bartender(I didn't catch her name) came over to our table when she saw us asking the waiter a lot of questions about tequila that he couldn't answer. She was nice and answered all of our questions then came back with a great drink. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

We stopped by on the way out of town and we're so happy we did. We ordered our food, drove to a park around the corner and chowed down. We started with a dozen medium steamed oysters (no raw allowed because of the virus) and it was the best thing ever! Perfect sauce, spices, texture and a sorry of lemon. Boom! We should've ordered four dozen. Halfway through the dozen we tried the fried oysters and the fried onion rings. These were a huge mistake. They were both gross as all hell; just nasty tasting, so we tossed them and finished the steamed oysters. I say again, BEST THING EVER! Them we moved into the Tuesday special (I think you call these, boiler bags?). A half pound each of snow crab legs, shrimp and crawfish in a bag. This was great but again... Steamed oysters: BEST! THING! EVER!!! We'll be back. read more

We came for the fresh seafood, and we weren't disappointed! We had steamed seafood, which comes to your table in a big bad that you open and pour onto a huge platter. They provide gloves and bugs to help you stay clean, but we needed more than that! They had friendly and effective servers and the food was prepared to order, so it was piping hot and perfectly cooked. It was a great experience, we're glad we stopped. read more

Red Crab Juicy Seafood - Weekend special - Seafood Near Me - Ocala, Florida

I love this place! The food is so good and the people have good energy! I call my food in a lot an pick up. I've never had a bad experience here! The green mussels are so meaty and fresh tasting! read more

Been wanting to try this so 2 of us went this evening, definitely mixed feelings! Growing up in New England, having lived in California, spent lots of time on Atlantic and Pacific coast, and well familiar with seafood! Tonight I ordered the bag with crab legs and clams! Never in my life have I seen miniature clams and crab, and the corn (horribly over cooked as were the miniature clams,)and potatoes! Not saying I didn't get enough to satisfy the menu description, but 1. To taste the clam, which getting a taste of anything was difficult because of the greasy overpowering sauce ( and mine was not spiced) you had to eat at least 3 at a time. 2. The crab legs were so thin you could not use the cracker provided. That would have been ok if you had a metal fork to work the shell off, or of the legs were sliced! The server, who was very attentive, was able to find a crab pick , somewhat helpful, but in all my years of crab have I ever had problem! 3. Everything was swimming in the broth, which was greasy, not bad taste wise, but not what I expected. I was thinking more a low county boils, a crab pot ...the type of seafood mix where after everything is steamed together it is drained when serving ... it was an experience, never to be had again! Fried had fried oysters, tried one, not sure if it was the breading or cocktail sauce but very vinegary..fries were good. Would I go back, yes, many things on the menu for this seafood lover, but the bag experience is a no no.... read more

Food tasted really good! Service was prompt and fine with a smile. My order was a call in and pick up. No waiting and still hot when I got back to my hotel room. Definitely recommend!! read more

Amazing!!!! The food and the service were top notch. Our server SKYLAR was the best! Great personality and very attentive. Our food was delicious. Mixed all sauces together with crab, shrimp and sausage (came with egg, potato and corn). Also got fried shrimp basket. Tarter sauce and cocktail sauce were delicious. Recommend asking for a spoon to get all of the juice out of the bag it is that delicious! Restaurant was clean! read more

Yes, it is pricey but the quality of the seafood is excellent. Husband and I went for lunch and were not disappointed.

I had the headless shrimp and snow crab in a bag with juicy/mild sauce and it was perfectly cooked and delicious. My first time having seafood like this. My husband had the fried shrimp basket and enjoyed it as well. The place looks better than expected on the inside. Nice decor, soft lighting, and good service. We went with another couple and all were happy. read more
