I love a good crab boil!! I have been craving them lately and after having this and then Dummy…read moreCrabby back to back, I can say with certainty that MMC has better quality crab legs and better flavored sauce. I got the 1/2 lb clams and 1/2 lb snow crab with medium spice MMC seasoning. The clams were not overcooked and the snow crab had plenty of meat in them and were easy to crack. Their hush puppies are my favorite! So crispy and slightly sweet. Our server Alex was awesome. Very attentive and made a great strawberry margarita. The ambiance was nice because we were the first customers to arrive when they opened. It was nice and quiet and we got top notch service.

The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and generously sized. Their Mr. and Mrs. Crab special sauce was absolutely incredible, genuinely one of the best seafood boil sauces I've ever tried. I was honestly surprised to see reviews saying the food was bland or lacked seasoning because, as you can probably see from the photos, our platters had plenty of seasoning. The restaurant itself was very clean, nicely decorated with a fun boat theme, and had a welcoming atmosphere. Our waitress was very kind, and the food came out quickly. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a solid seafood boil spot!

I was expecting it to be a decent sized restaurant. I was mistaken. It was very small. It reminded me of an old Chinese food restaurant. The 4 booths that were there to eat in house were either taken or just not cleaned yet. We decided to take our food to go. They had a special for boil combos B & C for $39.99. That is what we decided to get. The food smelled so good from the ride home, to when we opened it. We dumped all of the contents into a huge bowl. It was decent sized portions. The dummy crab seasoning was garlicky and delicious!! There was so much seafood. We couldn't finish it all that night. We did have the rest for dinner the next night. It was still so tasty!! The best part about it was that neither of us got sick the next day. We were worried. Previously we both got sick on a seafood boil from a different restaurant. This was also in a different state. Needless to say, we will be getting seafood from dummy Crabby again!!

Got the lemon pepper wings, hush puppies, clams, snow crab and sausage. The flavor of the crab boil is really good. Ask for it with extra thick sauce/seasoning. The hush puppies are seasoned so well and are super crispy. The lemon pepper wings were just ok. They have some kind of breading on them that makes them super crispy, but if you like naked wings, you might not be a fan. Also the seasoning didn't stick to the wings so they were kind of plain. The clams tasted super fresh, but the snow crab was a little lacking. They were kind of dry and definitely on the smaller side. The sausage tastes weird. Not sure if they were made of beef (I don't eat beef), but neither me nor my daughter liked it. The ambiance is fine. Just a few tables, nothing fancy. They play fire music though.

They have the entire menu above the counter, but also provide a paper m The menu is just what the name suggests: seafood and chicken, although they do have a burger and a Philly steak sandwich on the menu. I ordered the #10 Oysters & Shrimp. The man taking our orders asked if I wanted them fried regular or crispy. First time anyone has asked me that. I ordered crispy, with fries and hushpuppies. They serve everything in styrofoam to-go containers and while the place is not fancy, the food was great! My oysters were yummy and the shrimp were well seasoned.

After searching for fresh seafood in the retail/wholesale category on the Internet this little gem came up. The place was a classic hole in the wall find. When I got to the plaza, didn't see the name of the market so I asked around and found out it was around back of the building. I walked in one of the first things that I noticed was the place was neat, and I didn't notice that classic "seafood smell " we all know about. The two owners were very gracious and showed me around. I called prior to coming there and ask them for fresh whole grouper, snapper and lobster tails. Upon arriving, the owners proceeded to open up freezer cabinets and showed me an abundance of snapper and grouper varieties in the whole fish category. Looking at the eyes of the fish, you could tell they were super fresh, just the way us seafood buyers like them. I did have them fillet, scale, and butterfly some of my fish while I was there. I also purchased pre- frozen lobster tails had them the next night for dinner absolutely So tasty.. Here is my pro tip of the day : The afternoon I was there, I saw the sign they had a GROUPER FISH SANDWICH with fries and a drink for $10. (The only thing I'm missing is a picture). You cannot get fresh grouper w/ lettuce, tomato, and onion (on a bun toasted) with fries and drink for $10 ANYWHERE I KNOW OF (ask them for a bit of the homemade spicy hot sauce) tell them Jeff P. sent you "thank me later".

That said, the food itself is always on point. Service is really good too, so I'm only taking one star off for the lemonade.

But the real star of the night was definitely the honey hot jerk wings. The perfect balance of sweet honey, smoky jerk seasoning, and that slow-building heat was unreal. Every bite had layers of flavor -- sweet at first, then spicy, then that rich Caribbean-style seasoning kicked in and took it over the top. Honestly, they were so good they had me in a full food coma afterward. The kind of meal where you sit back after eating and just rethink your entire life for a second . You can tell the wings were made fresh and seasoned with care because the flavor was deep all the way through, not just sauced on the outside. Definitely one of the best wing flavors I've had in a long time, and I'll absolutely be back for more.

The place is easy to find, and there's plenty of parking nearby. I walked in and was greeted by the manager (or owner...I didn't ask since they were pretty busy). As mentioned, it's a small space with only a few tables, which wasn't an issue for me. Looking over the menu, the first thing that caught my eye was the wings, followed by appetizers, burgers, sandwiches, and a few other items. Of course, I had to go with the wings. I ordered nine wings drenched in Buffalo sauce (which is a great thing), along with fries and a soda. Just a heads-up: the wings are made to order, so it may take about 10 minutes for your food to be ready. That's perfectly fine with me because I love my wings piping hot and fresh out of the fryer. The wings were very, very good. Crispy, perfectly seasoned, juicy, fresh, and hot. I thoroughly enjoyed this meal. If you're in the area, give them a try! I'm honestly a bit surprised there are so few reviews for this place. Based on my experience, they deserve more attention.

It's a South African-style grilled chicken served with fries, and I always get the corn ribs on the side too. The chicken sits on top of a tortilla, which I use to soak up all the juices and eat with the chicken. Even though it's grilled, it's unbelievably moist every single time. It's packed with flavor, perfectly seasoned, and ridiculously juicy. I seriously cannot get enough of it, and I HIGHLY recommend everyone try it.

We tried this place about a year ago, and we had a completely different experience than before. I can honestly say, I won't be back. Not ever. Not even a chance. This place is filthy. The floors, the tables, the bathrooms (the worst I have ever seen), and even the napkin holders. I had immediate regrets upon stepping in based on the lack of cleanliness. The amount of flies swarming was alarming. The service was a zero. The girl working watched us order at the kiosk, the kiosk wouldn't let us pay, we tell her, and she says "oh it doesn't work." So we ordered with her even though she sat around watching us waste our time. I ordered a wing meal, told her I wanted the wings injected, and she said "we don't inject them. I will give you sauce on the side." The menu clearly says they inject wings, social media videos always show it, and also, my last visit there was also injected wings but she would give me no explanation other than "I will give you the sauce on the side." It was bizarre and I couldn't even get a "we don't do that anymore" from her. We ordered a chicken sando. The quality was horrible. Chicken tasted overly processed with bad texture. We also ordered a wing combo. The wings were flavorless. Absolutely flavorless. I ordered medium and there was zero spice. Not even a tad. Apparently they don't inject their wings anymore so there was no flavor in the wings. The quality was pretty bad. Also, the "sauce on the side" that the girl working promised me was not the sauce I ordered, it was the sauce she chose. The whole ordering experience was odd. Definitely seemed like someone who did not care about providing good service, good food, or a sanitary environment. We waited about 25 minutes for our food. About 3 people came in to get pickup orders while we waited and no one else. So we sat and waited while the flys swarmed our heads. The cashier never once tried to come out and clean the filthy tables. She even paused doing nothing for a restroom break, used the filthy restroom, came out with WET hands, and grabbed a napkin from the dusty napkin holder on the filthy table to dry her hands. Then still never wiped down the table caked with food debris. Absolute terrible level of cleanliness, care, and service. It ruined my appetite. After waiting that long, the Mac n cheese was ice cold. 25 minutes for Mac n cheese with a chill to it and no heat. I'm convinced they pulled it out of the refrigerator and forgot to heat it up. This place just had too many misses: a lack of quality, a lack of good service, and a lack of any sanitation standards. Never again. We didn't finish our food. We threw it away outside.

I stopped by House of Wings NYC in Tampa, and from the moment we walked through the door, the customer service was absolutely incredible. Before I even tasted a single thing, I was already impressed by how welcoming, friendly, and genuine everyone was. You can tell when a place takes pride in making people feel at home, and that was definitely the case here. Once I told them about my content and how I create videos for chronic illness warriors like myself, they were all in. They were excited, supportive, and wanted me to experience as much of the menu as possible. Y'all... when I say they spoiled me, they SPOILED me I got to try an Oreo milkshake, deep-fried Oreos, jalapeño poppers, and so much more. Then I ordered the loaded waffle fries bowl and a chicken sandwich. Now let me talk about that loaded waffle fries bowl for a second. That thing was HUGE. I'm not even exaggerating when I say I ate off of it for almost three days. The portion size alone had me sitting there wondering if they accidentally made enough food for a family reunion The chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious, and y'all already know I eat my sandwiches a little differently. I separate everything and eat it my way, but every bite was worth it. And those jalapeño poppers? Whew. Those stole the show for me. Number one item of the entire visit. Crispy, flavorful, and gone way too fast. The deep-fried Oreos were incredible too, and that Oreo milkshake was the perfect sweet finish. Overall, every single thing I tried was a 5 out of 5. Not one miss. Great food, generous portions, amazing people, and customer service that makes you want to come back before you even leave. Thank y'all for the hospitality, the laughs, and the experience. You will absolutely be seeing me again. That's Just How Life Goes... and of course, Just How Food Goes.
