    Shrimp are hidden under the fish portions. I took half the rice and veggies with me. Tasty!
    Clark B.

    Never heard of this chain before. We tried them out in the days before the grand opening and just after they got their beverage license in place. My coworker and I ordered mixed platters. He went with the fried version. I had the fried rice, 4 piece tilapia and shrimp. Everything was really good and far too much food. My friend barely ate half his plate and an employee actually approached and asked if there was anything wrong. Nothing at all actually, except it was twice as much food as he needed that night. They've got lots of good options. Wish them well in their opening. I'd go back.

    Awesome place! Cool atmosphere with all the neon. Service by DAE at the bar was top notch. She was in top of everything, also so funny and personable. We had the wings (good), crab Rangoon (good), and got a boil (shrimp, king crab, and lobster along with sides). All tasty. Not crazy expensive either. We will definitely be back.

    Seafood boil

    Food - excellent Service - Fast, my (2 orders of seafood boil) was ready to pick up in 7mins! Ambience - clean and staff are welcoming. dining there.

    Our food was really great ! We got snow crab legs and shrimp in our boil. The flavor was delicious. Our waitress Jonel was so kind and sweet. She made our experience amazing. She was super attentive and was so sweet to our toddler.

    Amazing beignets

    Really wanted catfish & shrimp po boys on excellent rolls!!! Fried oysters were excellent and had a crispier coating than southern style lightly coated oysters. I will definitely order again. Don't expect heavy old bay or cajun season to hide the flavor of the seafood. Hushpuppies are hard to get right and the texture was just right . Will order again. Saved beignets that were not greasy like some in a nearby town to south colo springs and the powered sugar was just enough and didn't cake up. Very good COS beignets, but cafe du monde is my fave. Going to go back for seafood combos and specials. Guntersville Lake state park lodge , and seafood shacks between Panama City and New Orleans near the panhandle are my favorites! This rusty crab is excellent and you should try it today!!! Service was friendly, fast , helpful with recommendations and accurate with complete order. Lots of seating for families, extended families, company galas or team building, band meetups in rear room or main dining room area with large comfy benches and spacious tables. Enough room for a large band or sports teams and families for a banquet , too. The air fresheners witb the to-go boxes were a nice touch . Some folks don't want the seafood smell lingering in their vehicles.

    1/2 completed seafood boil, forgot to take a picture sooner

    Brought our crab loving daughter here as a surprise meal. Service was amazing (thanks Abby). We got grilled oysters on the half shell and a custom boil with crab legs, shrimp and lobster. Medium spice. Absolutely amazing and enough for us to feel exceptionally full. We usually go to Juicy seafood but this might be our new go to. Everything was fresh, flavorful and delicious. Can't wait to come back

    Good atmosphere, my server 'Lovely', was very nice and professional. I'm a big fan of Catfish, creole, seafood boils and this place had everything. I found out they just opened Feb 2026 and still working out Social media and what not, so I thought I would leave a review. Food was good, I got the fried oysters to start, the basket of catfish and the Cajun shrimp pasta to go. All was very good. They have a special priced lunch menu till 3pm, which I thought was a great deal! I've lived in the 80906 since 2015, new places are hard to come by. I recommend checking them out, great food and service! Gonna leave some pics of the menu and Lovely behind the Bar!

    Shrimp Special with Snow Crab legs.
    Christian C.

    Good was outstanding. The Shrimp Special with Snow Crab legs and the Rusty Crab seasoning was tasty, cooked at the right temperature and served quickly. This will be my crab boil place in CS from now on!

    This place is amazing. Finally some competition for the only other good boil place in town. They were worth the 40 min drive across town. The vibe the lighting the furniture all new all great ! The food BIG Fresh and flavorful The waitstaff hands down the BEST. When it got slow our waitress actually walked my son around and introduced him to the rest of the staff who were all incredibly nice to him as well despite his bored 3 yo energy. Thanks rusty crab daddy see you again soon !

    Shrimp pasta with garlic bread
    Sharolyn A.

    The food was great! My husband said the shrimp pasta was fire! I ordered the boil bag containing snow crabs and Dungeness crab and the crab daddy sauce is the best

    We tried this new seafood restaurant just a few days into their soft opening. While a few things aren't completely ready/available, we got what we needed and were completely happy with the service, flavors, prices, and quantity. The Cajun shrimp pasta had just the right amount of kick, and the seafood boil ordered with extra sauce and spicy was perfect. Looking forward to coming back after the grand opening.

I would love to shout out our waitress, however, I don't know her name. But she was the perfect balance of attentiveness and understanding that we were probably on a first date with how much we kept talking. She was really sweet on taking our orders, and checking in on us. For drinks my day got an old old-fashioned, which I ended up trying- and it was pretty good. I personally got the Cosmo and it was decent. I'm generally more of a gin and tonic, but it was still delicious. For food, we got the fried mac & cheese, balls, and crab stuffed mushrooms. Both had such a great flavor. And I think our favorite was dipping the bread from the crab, stuffed mushrooms in the garlic mixture at the. For entrée, my date got the halibut. And honestly, the sauce was amazing. For my lobster rolls they were both very fresh and delicious. But honestly, I could not eat both. Overall, this was such a great place for our first date, and I would honestly be back for more of the food and the best service. The only knock a star was truly for price point.

Drink orders were taken right away, and everyone received their drinks except my fiancé. He eventually just ordered a different drink instead. We placed our food order around 7:15, but the appetizers came out one by one instead of together, which already set the tone for the night. Our main courses didn't arrive until around 9:00 PM, almost two hours later. On top of that, two of our dishes were completely forgotten and had to be re-rung and brought out even later. We didn't plan on spending over two hours at dinner, but at that point we didn't have much of a choice. The food itself was actually very good, but not for the price. For a party of 7 where everyone only had one drink, our bill came out to over $1,450, nearly $210 per person. At that price point, there really isn't room for this many mistakes. It was also very obvious that the restaurant was understaffed. One woman was running the entire top floor by herself, taking orders and making drinks. That's not fair to the staff or the guests. Overall, the potential is there, but the service and staffing need major improvement, especially for such an expensive dining experience.
