THE WHOLE SHABBANG! I would argue that this place is probably the best boiling crab place. Let me explain. Same quality of product, way more parking lot than other boiling crab spots, and much bigger, thus, less wait time! And now before …

This seafood restaurant is a place that you go with good company. It is fun to share all the freshly made food. Make sure to get there early, and have everybody in your party in line with you, or you won't get seated.
