About this business

We specialize in local seafood from the coastal Carolinas and Virginia. We deal with small distributors and are confident in the quality of the seafood. We know the harvesters, and the exact areas spurring the seafood that we serve. We take it very seriously, and if we can't get a delivery, we are more than ready to drive all night to pick up product to serve the next day. We've done it before and we'll do it again.

I have been to Kings Crab before with family and absolutely loved it. Today, I was deflated by our experience. We were unable to even get past the front lines without utter disgust secondary to the poor character that was instantly presented and turned us off to this establishment by the hostess. She was extremely confrontational and less than accommodating. I am disappointed and will not return. Management, your hostesses see your guests first. Choose wisely.

Sidewalk dinner on a lovely evening. Had lobster and soft shell crab tacos. Delish! And affordable evening!

Mediocre food.... I had oyster stew, Caesar salad and the crab cakes.. the oyster stew was thick with cream and flour and had little flavor. The Caesar salad had absolutely NO taste at all...none. The crab cakes however tasted good. Would not go again

Great food, great service, wobbly tables. We'll be back once more in a few months and if the tables aren't fixed we'll pull out and head somewhere else from now on. Don't appreciate having to fold up napkins and menus to keep the tables straight. Floor needs a good pressure washing.

I've been there several times in the past and everything had been excellent but the past 2 times have been horrible. They got a new steamer last year and ever since then the food has been overcooked and full of water (I always order the Dreamy Steamy Bucket). When you tell them the food is overcooked and soggy they act as if they don't want to bring you more. They question you as if you don't know what you're talking about. I won't be back.

The seafood bucket for 2 was perfect size. My only complaint was server wasn't very attentive. I had to go to bar to get a refill. Overall good food!!
