    We stopped here for a family dinner for my father-in-law's 75th birthday. Since he loves both seafood and the sea, this seemed like a great pick. The atmosphere and wait staff were great. The food was great, except our "seared" tuna dish came out well-done, which is not what we were expecting. The waiter got the manager, who explained that is more of what is served in Ireland when you get "seared", but he willingly obliged and brought us a whole new plate with the tuna medium rare and seared on the outside. The seafood sampler platter for two was great--some of the best calamari and mussels we've had. All in all a very nice experience and would definitely go back.

    We always enjoy Crabby Joes, even though there was an issue with some of the food this time, the manager treated us wonderfully. It’s when things (can & do) go wrong, that you really see how an establishment values it’s customers. Crabby Joes done it’s absolute upmost to make things right. Highly recommend this restaurant & look forward to dining there again soon.

    Went for lunch. Restaurant had just opened for the day; however, the hostess and wait staff were not organized and did not know what the days specials were. Food was merely ok - dishes simple and bland.

    Our second time to Crabby Jo's. We got to sit outside in the sun. Super service. Servings generous and the food is exquisite.

    Seated 15 mins and had to ask for menus. Lots of staff chatting to each other. Food was tasteless. Ordered fish and chips but it was a case of spot the potatoe in the chips- mostly hard chipping. Won’t be back.
