Happened to be in the area and stopped in for dinner. They were running a restaurant week special so I was able to try the lobster bisque, old bay pot, and bread pudding. I wasn t disappointed. Plenty of food and worth the money.

On a trip to New Jersey to see an ill friend, I stopped in to the Crab s Craw Inn for drinks and an appetizer. The place was packed on this Saturday in the middle of April. Two top tables were pushed against the bar, making patrons feel like they re actually sitting at a bar. The drinks were good, the appetizers mediocre. A dude was up on a stage singing rock songs, and playing an acoustic guitar. Wow, did I miss entertainment during the time of Covid. Crab s Craw was fine, not special, but it served its purpose.

The food was ok. Your typical bar menu. Still can't figure out why they refused to seat us out of the sun when we were the only ones at their 11 table patio. They literally said it was impossible to move 2 chairs to the table in the shade. They are very lacking in hospitality.

I went in today to purchase a gift certificate for my father. I was sorely disappointed by the service during my less than 5 minute transaction. Maureen, the hostess I presume, seemed annoyed and inconvenienced that I was there. She was huffing and puffing about everything around her. Molly, the other hostess, did not seem to be in a much better mood. The restaurant was not all that busy, at 1:00pm on a cloudy day. As a host/hostess, you are the FIRST impression of a restaurant or establishment. With many other seafood restaurants in the area, I wish that I had purchased a certificate elsewhere. I hope that my father does not have the same experience.

Awful.

Our waitress was amazing, she went above and beyond, even though she was on training.
I didn't like my food, asian tuna sandwich was plain, dry and flavoreless, couldn't eat it.
My husband liked his food. He ordered crab legs. I tried them, they were delicious.
The place is overpriced.

(Service= 5 + pricing= 1 + food=2.5)/3 =3

I have eaten dinner at this restaurant over the last five years three times I think it's a very good restaurant and the food was pretty good I would recommend it to a friend or anyone who's looking for a seafood restaurant down by the shore.

Classic

We expected more from this restaurant

We expected more from this restaurant
The service was very good. The food was not. My baked potato was barely warm and very dry, like it was from the day before. We both had scallops. Mine were broiled and okay. My wife's were Newberg and very sandy.
I feel a restaurant of this caliber should do much bettrr.

Crabs claw went way downhill. Went last night for a birthday dinner. Food was awfully, grizzly steak, horrible scampi, overcooked fish and mushy vegetables. Service was terrible. Our waitress was inattentive and careless. We were so embarrassed to have brought guests there. Never again.

Walked in and there was live music playing. One guy singing he was awesome playing great familiar music. Was seated right away and Brandon came over to take care of us very soon. The local beers on tap were excellent. The atmosphere felt relaxing and at home. We both enjoyed our Meals one with salmon the other a triple crab steam pot. Again, excellent service I would recommend this place to anyone. I will return. BTW, this is where I came to celebrate my 60th birthday after kayaking on the bay with my daughter.
First time I was ever here

Some of the best sea food around but i wish they had different combinations because not everyone wants sausage and corn with crabs or shrimp when you get the steamer bucket and if you ask for mashed potatoes on the side instead of corn and sausage its an extra charge

Food was great, and the area is nice, however, Server was pretty bad, forgot all our our salads and gave us the wrong drinks, we are good tippers so it hurt all the more when we gave 20% to some one undeserving.

Disappointing food. After 3 hours I m still re-tasting. Low quality and high priced. One of the only games in town so waiting lines are out the door. The place itself is sweet both inside and out, but they won their reputation with a different recipe than the one they have now.

one of the prime seafood restaurants at the shore. however they have other great selections besides seafood. no matter w JFK at your taste, all the food is outstanding and service is great.

My family went there for lunch after a memorial service for my dad who passed away. Can honestly say the food was good, I had the fish tacos, prepared well, good portions, and the service was excellent. The historic pictures were nice to look at.. Would definitely go again..

DELICIOUS! For our anniversary, we split the crab steamer pot and each got a flight of beer. Finished up with a nightcap outside. Lovely evening. Thanks Sandy and Jacob for a nice time.

Yummy

Having been to the Crabs Claw twice in the last month, I ordered the same dish, the seafood provencale. This last time (Sunday night) was very disappointing. The sauce was totally different and the amount of seafood was less than the first time. This has not been the first time I haven't been pleased with this restaurant. It seems a hit-or-miss with the quality and abundance of food.

Food here is so delicious. Always great atmosphere and always have live music which is very nice. The staff is nice but a little slow. The only thing that I don't understand is a small piece of cheesecake was $7 which is absolutely ridiculous. It was great cheesecake just very overprised.

Someone I know went to this restaurant. Was upset by the service so let the wait staff know who proceeded to post it on Facebook to "shame her". once I complained to their Facebook page the owner commented on my complaint saying that "no one wanted to hear my personal issues". No customer service and very rude.

High priced for normal food with small portions Fl...

High priced for normal food with small portions Flavors of soup & seafood was bland or overkill on the salt. Let s just say we wish we wish we spent that money else where.
Service was great but if you want to pay for good sea food I m sure there are better options.
