tried this place. We had a great lunch. I loved the blackened tuna seasoned with cajun spices with a pineapple and mango salsa on a kaiser roll--I didn't need the roll. The attentive waiter suggested the basil vinaigrette on the salad of baby greens that came with the meal. YUM! The price was only $12. My husband had a tuna... more

We (6 adults) were in a hurry to leave for home. Stopped at Crab'sClaw and although it was packed our server (6:45am) was extremely friendly and happy. Our drinks were served with breakfast folllowing approx 10 minutes later. They were humongus portions and the food was great! We were out of ther within a half hour. Left a big tip... more

My nieces ordered the Mahi cakes after the waitress raved about them. My sister in law and I ordered the crab cakes after first asking and being reassured that these were "lump crab cakes containing mostly meat with very little filler." That is NOT what we got. The girls took one bite out of the Mahi cakes and said they... more

Bring your hiking shoes to climb the steep steps to the dining room. The food wasn't worth the climb and the service was even worse. Don't waste your time or money. more

the view and atmosphere were perfect and the menu sounded delicious but the food just did not live up to the descriptions. Very expensive and somewhat disappointing. more

AWFUL!

We went there with a party of 8 including a three year old and an infant. The service was very slow to refill drinks, bring appetizers or take care of the customers in any manner. The food did not arrive for over 1 1/2 hours and nothing special was ordered. The food arrived cold and very ordinary or less. This... more

Although we went in the off-season we would have expected a bit more variety in their offerings. Service was slow and we ended up paying for a coke and a beer, which were pricey at that. We can't comment on the food because we waited for so long we finally gave up. Not impressed. more

We are locals in this area and have not been to this restaurant in quite a while. We ordered the Carribean Oyster Rockefeller Special for $12. One person in our party looked at the dish and tried one of the oysters and it was way over cooked. The oysters we like the size of raisins and some you couldn't see.... more

My friend and I had lunch here... And even though the outside almost had us turning and leaving, we were SO glad that we didn't! The views were great, as was the service and food! We had a new server, but the bartender helped him out as it got busier... He recommended the Tortuga Dips, which were 3 different crab... more

I read the other reviews and can't believe we're talking about the same place! My husband and I went there for lunch in June and had a wonderful experience. Our waitress introduced herself and said she was there to provide us with excellent service and she did. We started with some conch fritters and a nice bottle of Spanish wine... more
