    Love this place when I'm craving seafood and need a quick bite. I usually get the fried shrimp basket with fries because their shrimp is so clean and delicious.

    Also, the way it's decorated is so cute :)

    Hmmm, learned about this place just today. It was my Mother's Birthday and she wanted some very low key, time with family at home and seafood. We wanted something close instead of going across town to a place that is very popular,,, I won't name. So we settled on this place, First off the woman taking the order didn't seem to friendly or helpful, she did a lot of pointing at the menu.
    Once we paid, she brought out a smile and thanked us. Figures,,, I was over that, NEXT
    Ordered the shrimp basket and Fish Platter, Shrimp was bland and fish was bland, fries soggy..The Coleslaw was dry, the hush puppies were decent. To steam Crab Legs you have to buy 2 clusters. Not one place I have ever been to does that. They will steam anything you want. With all that said. We will not be rushing back there for anything. 2 stars for the hush puppies. Looked at the prices of crabs, seem to pricey. Will take the trip to the Wharf, well worth it.

    Amazingly Amazing! This place is a goldmine.
    Family coming to town from NYC and wanted seafood. My daughter's friend recommended we check out JC Crab House. And we pleasantly did!
    We ordered combination fried and steam plates. EVERYTHING was cooked to protection! EVERYTHING was FRESH! Our table full of delicious assortment of seafood we took our time eating and talking. Within an hour of being there they sold out of their Extra Large through their Medium Male Crabs! (So order your Male crabs early)
    I'm headed back later this month to try their Male Crabs! I'll circle back then.

    Totally amazing seafood dinner, and great customer service! So glad I found the five star reviews on Yelp!
    We even chatted with some of the other customers who agree that the food and service are top notch! Looking forward to many more meals here!

    Visited here yesterday. I have been seeing signs around the shopping center indicating that they were open. I am actually happy to see a seafood restaurant in the area. I thought i would check them out. I ordered fried flounder and shrimp combo with fries. I liked the batter and the fry on the fish. I did not like the taste nor the consistency of the fish meat throughout. I liked the batter and fry on the shrimp. It tasted better to me than the fish. The combo came with fries and coleslaw which were fine. I think i will have to try the other items like shrimp fried rice and crab cake next time to get a better picture of their food quality. The customer service was good. They sell some seafood raw like lobster tails, shrimp, and oyster. Worth another visit. Bon Apetit.
