“ Took my son and his family(2 grandkids) and we had a wonderful meal and fun with the robot!! I had the catfish and shrimp. Absolutely loved it. Food was loved by all and have to mention the staff. So great. They were patient when water was spilled by a little one and made everything right. Please go and enjoy. ”
“ Crab was delicious and service was great. Harmony was our waitress and she was amazing! ”
“ Amazing dinner. We had calamari and oyster appetizer. Fabulous! Dinner, lobster, shrimp, king crab legs and ramen noodles. Over the moon delish. Highly recommended ”
“ Good service, great food and reasonable prices. Way better than anything Chesapeake has on their menu. But then again, Chesapeake is super lame for a seafood restaurant. If you like a beer with your dinner, they could use a little more variety. Will certainly go back next time I'm in the mood for a seafood boil. ”
“ This Rod aka Big Rod, aka non stop. I work here/ and love it. I had the best customer tonight (love them) we might be #1 in Springfield IL. At least top five. Guaranteed great service, clean, friendly, the food is amazing. Please stop by it is worth the tip "we got yall". ”
“ This place is a Springfield favorite. They don't skimp on the seasonings here. The seafood boil bags are loaded with spices that make your mouth sing. However if you're a corn and potatoes person plan to pay extra, they are no so generous with those. Prices at the yummy crab are comparable to others in this market and while there are always people there it's never over crowded. The tables are a little close so when it's a lot of people it's a bit uncomfortable but to go is an option. Two hips for the Yummy Crab! Hip hip!! ”
