We ordered the seafood in a bag (Seafood Boil) and we really enjoyed it. We got it with lobster, crab, mussels, potatoes, corn, and sausage. It was very pricey though. Our server didn't let me know there was a combo for this so I ended up paying individual prices for each item which totaled 167. I was pretty upset about that when I could have gotten the $90 combo. Our server also didn't give a bucket for the shells until I asked a different person. Next gripe is they didn't provide any utensils to open the lobster or crab so once again I had to ask then wait. All in all I'm going to say the service I received was terrible. I did NOT tip because of this. Food is pretty tasty though. I wish they would match it with good service.

Yeah... I am not a fan of this dining concept. I came here and had a cup of clam chowder. I was expecting a good tasting CC.... it was ok. The rest of the table ordered the bags of food and it was a hot mess. Yup, have no intention of coming back. Just to note, the gals/waitresses were very friendly.

Title: A Flavorful Seafood Adventure! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review: The menu at The Kickin' Crab offers an impressive array of seafood options. Being a seafood enthusiast, I was thrilled to see the variety of choices available. From shrimp and crab to crawfish, there was something for everyone. The ability to customize the spice level and flavor profile of my meal was a delightful touch, allowing me to tailor my experience to my own taste preferences. I opted for the seafood boil, which came with a combination of shrimp, crab legs, and crawfish. The presentation was visually appealing, with the seafood piled high on a large platter. The flavors were robust and perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of spice. The seafood was cooked to perfection, tender and juicy, and the accompanying dipping sauces added an extra layer of deliciousness. The service at The Kickin' Crab was attentive and friendly. The staff members were knowledgeable about the menu and took the time to explain the differe
