    KICKIN COMBO #2 (1lb crab, 2lb shrimp)
    Moriah G.

    We tried Kickin Crab for the first time instead of our usual spot and overall it was decent. We ordered Combo #2 with 1 lb crab and 2 lb shrimp, Kickin' style, mild heat. The seafood itself was good, but the flavor leaned very tomato-forward, which was unexpected for a seafood boil, and there wasn't much spice at all--even at mild. First let me tell you - ask for a tray! We arrived before the rush, but service felt slow once the restaurant picked up. Our server was clearly busy and moving around a lot, but we didn't get drink refills and weren't checked on again until we were basically finished. Not a bad experience overall, just not quite what we were expecting flavor-wise or service-wise. We might try it again, but it didn't beat our usual spot.

    Good food, service was great, we felt bad because I forgot the name of the guy that served us. Pleasant vibes in the place, lots of TVs to watch the games. Had dungeness crab special with the "kickin it seasoning" or all of the above, I'd recommend. The spice level is also up to you. Sorry guys the crab didn't survive picture taking, but it does come with sausage corn and potatoes. We also tried some raw oysters, their clam chowder and calamari. Which were all enjoyable.

    The staff are very friendly here. You are greeted as soon as you enter. The place is neat and clean. I was dining alone and became overwhelmed with the menu choices because it offers a lot. Timmy was my server and he was able to guide me on the best selections for my appetite. He was really good with constantly checking if I was okay. The food was soooo delicious. I like my food spicy but the medium spice level was just right. Oh and the food comes out fast. I was highly satisfied with my visit.

    We absolutely love this restaurant. Great food, price, service, staff. Love it and couldn't recommend more!

    The food is amazing--service is great and always enjoy ourselves when we eat at The Kickin Krab.

    Great service, the atmosphere is real right. The food was as delicious as I expected it to be. Everyone is saying good things about this place for a reason. Try it for yourself and you'll love it.

    Omg!! This place has disappointed me - I went in and asked for the free crawfish ( signs says leave a review get 1 free pound) .. they not only argued that I should have gotten it when I left the review - the guy said because I didn't give them 5 stars - i couldn't get it.. I have no words .. a review doesn't mean automatically lie- it means give your opinion

    The food was pretty fresh and the seasoning was really good. I suggest getting all the seasonings mixed.

I will say it wasn't deveined so there is work to do, i thought the charge for headless might include it but it doesn't. There was 2 large snow crab clusters and they were easy to crack and pull out the meat. They had the perfect amount of spice. Two pieces of corn and two potatoes came with it as well as two sausage which was all delicious. I can't comment on the taste of the shrimp as i don't usually eat it but my husband said it was good except for the work required. We also tried the hot chicken and ordered medium and it was almost too hot to eat. This is compared to my crab meal which was ordered hot it was almost like they switched it around but i checked the receipt and it wasn't ordered that way. I would say if you want the chicken maybe go w mild. It wasn't super busy when we arrived but we got there when it opened. They play pretty good music but it's a little loud. Tables all draped w plastic tablecloths which are handy w the mess. They do have a handwashing area you can use and even though you get gloves and a bib if you need it and bathrooms were clean.

Our food came out pretty quickly even though there was a crowd. We ordered some Sausage, Corn, Shrimp, Crawfish and Potatoes with mild sauce. Soft Drinks are like 4.25 but, you get refills. Everything you need is at the table. Paper Towels and the plastic gloves and Bibs. I think, it would be nice if, they had a self serve Drink Station verses flagging down someone to help. It's pretty expensive, it was like $95.00 for everything! Loud country music was playing and there were lots of families all around. Restrooms are clean too. Check out the Red Claw Crab Shack if your wanting a clean environment, high prices, semi good service, loud country music and tasty Seafood.

Amy let us know what's best on the menu and the space level that my mother wanted was probably a bit too spiced but she didn't listen to Amy and of course needed another drink to calm her down, lol. The crab was sweet and we asked for our shrimp to be cleaned for a small price (you can have it cleaned and headless). We also ordered egg, potatoes, and sausage which is sold separately. Must visit! They also have lunch hours! Ambience was lowkey and soft music. Also, she gave my partner a slice of cheese cake so the love was real here!

With that being said, it's good for large parties. The ambiance felt light, airy and modern. We came here for mom's birthday because she loves seafood and I heard good things about this place so we decided to try it out. They don't take reservations, but when we got there, we got seated almost immediately. We passed by the long bar in the front and were seated in the back area where they had another smaller bar. We ordered calamari because we always have to have calamari at a seafood spot. It was delicious. It had a little kick to it. I had seafood enchiladas. It was flavorful and my plate was completely clean. I didn't try my parents or husband's food, but they ordered the Santa Fe tacos, fried catfish tropical style with fried okra, and grilled redfish with sautéed spinach. For dessert, we had the croissant bread pudding. Mmmm that was decadent! I'm glad we all shared that. Totally recommend if you're a seafood lover. They have so many items on the menu to choose from. On the menu, you can also choose the type of fish you want, how you want it prepared, and the sides for that particular plate, which is what my mom and husband did with their catfish tropical style with fried okra and the redfish with the sautéed spinach. There are 7 types of fish to choose from and 5 ways it can be prepared, plus 8 regular sides and 5 premium sides. If I'm doing my math right, that means 455 possible plates. Incredible!
