I really enjoy going to this restaurant while vacationing in Clearwater Beach. The staff is always so nice and Rachel was our waitress today and she was great! She was professional, had perfect timing on everything and the food was fantastic! I had the fish tacos and the raw oysters, which were very fresh and tasty. And prices are fair I believe for being on the beach(some places will hike them up, but not here;) I also have to thank the bartender(sorry, did not catch your name:( But you started the great service by making our drinks strong & YUMMY!!! I also love how all of the staff work together to bring out the food, clear the plates...it’s not just left up tp the server!
Thanks for another positive experience at your restaurant Crabby’s staff!

We tried most of the places at Clearwater Beach close to South end of the beach and the fries definitely were on top of the list! I enjoyed the Buffalo Chicken that they grilled and blackened for me. My husband thought the Maui Maui tacos were fantastic! Rachel was our waitress and she was very attentive and helpful. Little tidbit I didn’t know was if you catch any fish on the beach you can bring your catch to Crabby’s and they will cook it for you and serve with fries for a reasonable price!

We went deep sea fishing on the dock beside the restaurant and took our fresh fish to Crabby’s. They cooked it and served it to us along with fries and coleslaw for $10.95 per person. We were so excited about this and it was so delicious. The service and the atmosphere were amazing! We will definitely be back.

We ate here 3 times on our week long vacation. The mahi mahi sandwich at Crabby's was better then a very expensive restaurant I ate at in the past. The sandwich at Crabby's not only tasted better, it was also resonably priced. I also enjoyed the fish tacos. I had the dirty banana drink, which was great, My mom had the fettucini penne and shrimp and also loved it. We will definetly be visiting Crabby's again on our next visit. Our server Michael was very attentive and even took a picture for us.

I don’t leave a lot of reviews but I had to take the time and let you know about the food in this particular restaurant
RUN!!!!!! Worse food ever!! It has been awhile that I had such horrible food normally I would tell the waiter but didn’t want to ruin the rest of the night . Waiter was very nice not his fault . But not at all what I would expect from a known seafood restaurant . I didn’t even go crazy on what I ordered !!! Buffalo shrimp and Mac and cheese ..... shrimp was so sweet and it wasn’t the sauce not sure t kind of shrimp they were but yuck!!and Mac and cheese was cold!
my husband had the buffalo chicken sandwich with cole slaw chicken he said was good but to much buffal I sauce ruined it and omg worse cole slaw ever ! How can u mess up on cole slaw . Only good thing I can say the live entertainment and service was great I only suggest Drinks at the place

My wife and I had dinner there with two other couples on a Wednesday night when they were busy and were pleased to get seated quickly. The sun had just gone down and the view with the afterglow of the sunset was great. The food was a bit slow in arriving and was good but not great. Not a bad place to eat but there are others in the area that are better.

My family and I are here currently, had Fabio as a waiter and Steve as the manager and we hands down had one of the best experiences! We come to Clearwater Beach every year and eat, Fabio stuck out to us. He really went above and beyond more then I can express. He even told my daughters if they could make bags on the first try he’d buy them an apple juice. My kind of waiter! Steve equally was great to chat with and made us feel comfortable. Thanks guys and we will see you again soon!

The night of 10/6/2021
For starters both greeters at the door did not greet us or say hi we had to be the one to start the conversation. They found us a table and Charlie was are waiter. Charlie was attentive and made sure we had drinks and was very nice. The main reason i am sending this review was to say that the food was really good. There is a place that is advertising that they have the best Crab legs on the beach but we disagree. We have had crab legs 3 different places and by far Crabbys has the best. The place with the advertisement was the worst this is just my wifes and my opinions. My steak was very good maybe a little salty but still good. The only reason i can't get a 5 dot review was because of the first encounter with the restaurant not very inviting to start but when at the table it was a great evening.

We went to this restaurant because I had read they had a gluten free menu. They do not, but they did have plenty of gluten free things. Their grouper tacos were great and you can get them grilled instead of fried. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Rachel was super friendly.

We visit Clearwater Beach almost yearly and always make a point to eat at Crabbys (there’s more than one all up and down the beaches). The food is fresh and the prices are in line with other restaurants in the area. This last visit we stopped there the first afternoon to kick off our trip with a drink and water view at the upstairs bar at the main Clearwater Beach location. Zoe was tending bar and we instantly became friends. She’s friendly, attentive and fun to talk to. We went back another day and she not only remembered us but remembered what we drank!
For breakfast, lunch, dinner or just drinks Crabbys is a good choice!

Crabby's was near our hotel and we came in for dinner. We planned to eat on the patio outside and started there, but then the weather suddenly became threatening. Our very personable and friendly server quickly moved us under shelter, so we lost the view but stayed dry. The service was excellent, the food very good, the drinks refreshing and the live music (singer with guitar) just right. The steak fries were done perfectly, crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside, just as they should be. Despite the rain and wind we had a great time there.

Wife and I had a busy day so dinner was late for us. My wife read the recommendations for the area on Trip advisor and selected Crabby’s.
Service started slow but picked up quickly. Wife had the mahi-mahi tacos and loved them. She had a side of sidewalk corn which came out cold so the waitress brought her a new one and she enjoyed the warm one.
I had the loaded chicken which was two breasts topped with a bbq sauce, bacon, grilled onions, and cheddar. Excellent! However my two sides were lacking. Corn was bland and not sweet and I didn’t like the oil the french fries were fried in.
Nayeli was our server and did a good job. The other employees were friendly.
We recommend this place.

We went both for breakfast and dinner and both meals were incredible. Our server Michael was excellent, going above and beyond to make our experience at Crabby’s the best. We will definitely be coming back again. The crabby eggs Benedict breakfast and their crab and spinach dip were two favorites.

The food was great and the service is better. We had Garret Janson as our server and he did a hell of a job! He was able to bring me waters as fast as I can drink them because I got ripped last night and water is what my body needed today. The gator bites were good and so was the Alfredo chicken tenders and fries in the portions are pretty big.

Every year we go on vacation to Clearwater and we have to stop in by Crabby's for breakfast. Garrett was very attentive and made sure our food came out hot and to our liking. I highly recommend this restaurant and ask for Garrett
