Reviews

We've (wife & I) gone to various similar seafood restaurants and this is by far the best. Not only was the server great and attentive (didn't get his name but he was super tall) but explained and put up with our indecisiveness. What we ate/drank: The Hurricane Flight - We are not drinkers so these were strong for us.
You get 5 small Mason jar drinks.
4/5 tasted great.
The last one was too strong for us but not bad. Lobsta Pasta Great.
Solid.
Lobster was delicious and pasta hit the spot. Custom boil We cannot handle spiciness so we had zero spice in our boil but it had great flavor.
We also got a side of #2 spice (forgot the name) to dabble with our boil and that was super spicy for us but the flavor was AMAZING! Thank you Smashin Crab - we had an amazing lunch at yalls establishment.

Aw Clair -- we're so happy to hear as frequent seafood restaurant visitors -- you found Smashin Crab to be the best! From the service to the Hurricane Flight, to the Lobsta Pasta & Seafood Boil.
We look forward to serving you again real soon.

Wonderful time with my family.
Great food and atmosphere! Child friendly and the service was on point.
I recommend the calamari fries and lobster pasta.
The boil was plentiful and absolutely delicious.

Thanks so much for the wonderful review francisco! We are happy that you liked it.

Tried a couple new items this time and absolutely LOVED THEM !! I’ve had the seafood boil before and it was great, this time I tried the lobster roll, jambalaya balls, pecan pie and banana pudding for dessert.
The lobster roll was packed with buttery crab and tasted better then any other I’ve had, the roll came with some crispy and Cajun fries and coleslaw (I don’t usually like coleslaw but there’s is great) !! The jambalaya balls were recommended by our server Eric and they did not disappoint, highly recommend you try them if you haven’t.
The pecan pie was alright, I’ve had better and it was really soft compared to others.
The banana pudding is made in house, it’s creamy, not overly sweet and has the perfect banana taste.
Don’t be afraid to get out of your comfort zone and order something other than a seafood boil here.
Overall service was great, Eric was friendly and had great recommendations.
