I had an amazing experience at the Oh My Crab restaurant—everything from the ambiance to the flavors was exceptional. The fresh catch was cooked to perfection, bursting with rich, savory taste that left a lasting impression. The warm, coastal decor made the place feel both elegant and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed evening out. What truly made the visit unforgettable, though, was the outstanding service. Our waiter was incredibly kind, attentive without being intrusive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. It was a meal—and a night—I won’t soon forget.

Absolutely delicious seafood at a great price! We got the family combo with the garlic butter sauce and it was divine! The best part is that the food wasn’t overly salty like in many other places — everything was perfectly balanced. We were really happy with the whole experience and will definitely be back!

We were their first customers! We tried out some of their appetizers, a seafood boil and the honey cake. For the appetizers, the fries were really crispy and hot, and the ketchup was nice and chilled to pair with it. The grilled calamari was cooked well, and we liked the vegetables they paired with it. Just our personal opinion, we love spice and would’ve liked a spicier sauce for the calamari, but it was still good and garlicky. The two crabby seafood boil was pretty good. We had a few more critiques on this one. We are from the south, so we are used to sauces that have a stronger mix of powdered spices that create thicker consistencies that stick to the shells. I think this one was more oily than we are used to, so we had to really scoop up the garlic to hold the flavor to the shrimp and crab. The honey cake was super good. We are not into sweets, so this was a good balance of sweet for us where we still were able to finish the whole thing. Overall, the food was a 4 out 5. Would for sure come again to try many other things! The service was a 5 out of 5! They were super sweet and very attentive to whatever we needed. Since we were the first ones in, they were setting up a bit still, but they turned on music and everything after a bit and it was very cute in there. I love the set-up!

A must try spot! For my birthday I wanted to try a seafood boil and let me tell you this did not disappoint. Exceeded my expectations and Emil was just great. Definitely recommend the calamari and both the oh my family pack and the 2crabby.

This is the third seafood boil restaurant that I come to, and I have to admit that this is by far hands-down the best place the service was amazing. The food was perfect on time not too crowded. Everything was just great around. I will be coming back. I found my seafood boil spot for good.!!

We visited Oh My Crab and were absolutely delighted! Our waiter Elmir was incredibly polite, attentive and professional. He explained the dishes in detail, helped with the choice of seafood and took into account all our wishes. The dishes were served quickly and the service was top notch. Thank you very much for such hospitable service! We will definitely come back again.

Delicious food (I would get the level 3 spice, wasn’t too bad and way more flavorful), snow crab mussels and shrimp were our favorites. Incredible service too, clean with an extra sink, definitely coming back!
