The Crazy Crab

Not many options on actual menu; can do broiled fish and mashed potatoes safely. But honestly food was bland and two of our party had to send theirs back bc it was inedible. Not worth it.

If you have celiac, this restaurant is not for you. Menu items are inconsistently marked gf, and the manager is clueless about proper gf kitchen process and ingredient sourcing. Almost every dish served it’s topped with bread crumbs with a high probability of cross contaminating the entire line. Our normal procedure with a new restaurant is to order a small sample for Nima testing. The manager assured us that they pulled her crab sample from a fresh box, fresh gloves, and used a dedicated boiling pot. This is as simple as it gets giving us confidence that the food would test clean but unfortunately the test failed ruining another dinner for my wife and me. I believe the staff did the best job they could given their complete ignorance but I also believe with their current process, it’s impossible for this restaurant to provide a safe experience. Stay safe, and find other alternatives.

The menu online shows a lot more gluten free options than what they actually have, and was a bit deceiving. When we got to the restaurant, there were only a handful of things labeled on the menu, and when I asked about the things that had been labeled online they said they were not actually gluten free. I tried to order a sandwich, since they had a gf bun listed on their menu, but was informed that they no longer have a gf bun option and could only do it bunless. I opted for the Shrimp & Grits, one of the very few things labeled, which was good but disappointing as it was not what I had hoped for.

They only have shared fryers, so fries and chips are not gluten free. The rice also contains gluten.

This was delicious. Great view with outdoor seating. Several options marked and more available that weren’t marked. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. And they have a small playground to keep kids entertained. I would definitely recommend.

Food is really good. Not many options are GF. Wait staff could answer some questions and were willing to ask the kitchen what they didn't know. Enjoyed shrimp and grits with no reaction.

Many items on menu marked as gluten free. Ordered the two 6oz lobster tails with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. Lobster tails came covered with a bread crumb mixture. I had to wait another 15-20 minutes for them to make a fresh meal for me while my husband ate his meal. Food was good once it arrived but it appeared the kitchen wasn’t reading orders as the table next to us also had the wrong food. Be careful - check it before you eat.

I’ve never been this disappointed with a restaurant that had five stars on this app before. I ordered blackened Maui Maui with rice, veggies, and mashed potatoes. We ordered to go so that might have been the problem but we clearly stated gluten free for an allergy multiple times and it was added on the ticket. Once we got back home, the rice...which was actually orzo also had pasta mixed in. The vegetables came in a separate container and after eating those we found the same orzo at the bottom of the container.

Pretty good! I had the mahi mahi and it was pretty tasty. The waiter mixed up me and someone else’s food at first, but she fixed it and I had no problems. Gluten free items are marked on the menu, and staff is very accommodating.

Waitress was sure to tell me that they would boil everything separately.

There were many gluten free options on the menu! They were clearly marked as GF on the menu as well. There was a lot of great options!

I am dairy free as well and our server was quick to help find options! She had plenty of knowledge and showed me exactly what she put in for my order to ensure that it would meet my dietary needs.

We visited for lunch and ordered the Lowcountry Shrimp Boil (1/2 pound crab legs and 1/2 pound shrimp, plus red potatoes, smoked sausage, and corn on the cob). Great flavor, but so much work to peel! We also got the Shrimp & Grits. This was some of the tastiest shrimp & grits we’ve ever had - so much more flavor and variety than most.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waitress was knowledgeable about menu options, including cross contamination and fryers. I had the crab boil and did not get sick.

Celiac friendly?

Celiac here. Great gluten free options and very knowledgeable staff. Had the low country shrimp boil and it was amazing. One of the best meals we had here this weekend. Highly recommend.

Ate lunch today. It was GREAT. I had a turkey club on GF bread. My side's were red potatoes & corn on the cob. I added honey mustard dressing to sandwich & on potatoes. I can't do dairy either. Very happy with my meal. The server was not well informed. We purposely went at a slow time so I could talk to her without her being rushed. very kind lady....Linda.
