    Superior Crab is a seafood restaurant with a bit of a Mexican flair which makes sense as it is right next to Vallarta Mexican Restaurant. I'm not sure if the same people own both places but they do share a sign together and are both in the same building. I had read a menu online that apparently was no longer accurate which had indicated the burgers came with 2 sides which that is no longer the case so I got charged for my two extra sides. So I got a cheeseburger that came with their special sauce I didn't care for (I never seem to care for "special" sauces) and for the sides )I thought that came with the burger) I got a cup of seafood gumbo and mixed vegetables. I also did get a free bread pudding which was nice of them to do. The seafood gumbo was actually decent which is often NOT the case once you get outside of Louisiana although it certainly didn't quite taste like a Louisiana gumbo but it was full of shrimp. My mixed veggies were alright and a good sized portion. The burger had a smaller patty of meat and larger bun the that meat bun ratio was lacking. The flavor of the burger was on the more overcooked side to my taste and I wasn't asked how I wanted my burger cooked. My order also came with hush puppies which were actually quite nice and they had a bit of corn inside them. The fries were the biggest disappointment as they were lacking any nice crisp crunchy exterior so they could use some changes with how they are cooking those. Overall it was a mixed experience with some good and some less good. Service was friendly and took good care of me. Obviously sticking more to the seafood is probably a better idea here so I will have to make a return visit to see how one of the seafood options is. I do like to sample the burger in places that offer them though as that gives me greater insight into how the skills are in the kitchen.

    Great drink comes with patron in a customized bottle, the margarita is 3 different frozen flavors and very delicious

    Interior is really nice

    This place is brand new and worth a look see. I had mahi and shrimp. There was plenty of food and it was good if a little pricey. The waiter was attentive and the food came out quickly. The decor is really nice, we were all remarking about it. I was surprised this place was here and it wasn't very full for a Friday night, so I'm hoping this review gets them some more business.

    Nice and convenient location to get seafood. I ordered garlic mojo shrimp. Shrimps are cooked just right!

    Out for family dinner with daughter and son-in-law. Superior Crab had just opened a few months and decided to try it. The restaurant was new, clean, bright and nicely decorated. The Diablo Shrimp was very hot. Enough to have a red face. Perfect. The fried shrimp had medium batter and tasted delicious. The coconut shrimp was excellent. The rib-eye was perfect. The French fries were slim with a crisp outside and soft potato on the inside with a Cajun type seasoning. Those could be eaten by themselves as a meal. The service. Well Francisco (sp) was great. He was friendly, knowledgeable and attentive without hovering. The price was $17- $30/ plate. We decided we will be returning. It was very good.

    -waitress was very nice & helpful. -food was excellent. Tasted really great! -not overcrowded or noisy.

    The service was horrible. When we entered the building we stood at the front desk for at least 5 minutes before we were even acknowledged. Once we were finally seated, it took another 6 minutes for someone to take our drink orders. This was NOT due to the restaurant being busy. We could see the employees were laughing and joking in the back. The menus were wet and sticky. We had to ask for another one. It was sticky as well. We finally ordered appetizers and seafood. Our seafood made it out 1st, we had to remind her that we had ordered appetizers. The food was OK. The only thing that was fresh was the stuffed jalapeños and they were actually pretty good. We ordered 2 HOT and one extra hot, it was not spicy at all. They both tasted exactly the same. The margaritas were ok. They were definitely cheap tequila. They were $20. We had to ask for drink refills twice before we received them. They were never offered. Overall the food was just ok. It was definitely a family friendly atmosphere. The tables and menus definitely need some cleaning. And as you see on the sign with the daily specials....tips are only included on "some" tabs. It was included on ours. $35 on a $200 tab for horrible service.

One of the standout touches is the little shop inside, filled with all kinds of great finds--soaps, mists, lotions, and even kitchen accessories. It's a fun bonus that makes the experience feel a bit more unique. We came in with a group of 16, and they were able to accommodate us in a separate space across from the main area, which worked out really well. If you're planning a visit with a large group, I'd definitely recommend calling ahead. Major shoutout to our server--she handled splitting the check six ways like a pro. Everything came out correctly and fairly close together, which is no small feat with a group our size. I ordered the mahi sandwich, and it was delicious. The bun was perfectly buttered, and the fish itself was flavorful and well-prepared. They also offer a salad bar if you're looking for something lighter. Prices are on the higher side, but that's pretty standard for seafood. Some dishes were served whole--bone-in and all--which caught a few people in our group off guard, but to me, that's usually a sign of freshness. The food did take a bit of time to come out, but given the size of our party, it was understandable. Overall, I really enjoyed our visit and would happily come back.

As for the food, we opted for the fried shrimp because everyone had talked it up. The portion looked big, but most of that was the thick breading. The shrimp inside was tiny and unfortunately lacked flavor. It wasn't bad, just bland and overshadowed by the heavy coating. The restaurant itself is huge and perfect for large parties. I definitely recommend calling ahead. They offer TVs, a salad bar, and a full range of drinks--from cocktails to beer. It's very family-friendly. Prices felt a bit high for the portion sizes, but to be fair, seafood is always on the pricier side. They do offer non-seafood options too, which is nice for anyone in your group who isn't a seafood fan

It's the food folks go there for. The oysters were fresh and served in a simple appealing way. The fish was white and firm and delicious.

We did not like the 30 dollars worth of sweet shrimp. It does come in very generous portion if you like that type of flavor. Hush puppies were pretty darn good, light, nicely seasoned with good flavor. The Cole slaw was excellent. All portions were generous.
