I found this small, owner run seafood restaurant on google. The description of the unique garlic butter sauce and the pictures peeked my interest. The owner/chef was very hospitable. I order the snow crab legs. I meant to take a picture, but it looked and smelled so delicious that I couldn’t wait to dig in. It was AMAZING! I will definitely be coming back again.

It's a typical restaurant. More conveniently for a take out restaurant although they do have some seating available. I don't think they are consistent on their opening times. I called during the time that they were scheduled to open and there was no answer. I called an hour later around 130 and the person that answered said that they were now open. The food was good though. I don't eat much so I got the 6 colossal shrimp with corn and egg no potato. I will eat here again. They just need to stick with a time and stand by it. A lot of business can be missed because of the inconsistency.

I went to Savannah GA with my sister due to the passing of one of her friends. I am the passenger enjoying the ride. My sister Medinah visited this restaurant last year and has been telling me about it since. So my first time visiting was on 10/18/2025.The food is delicious seafood cooked to order so be patient with the chef! I got the fried crab rice with fried whiting fish and shrimp plate.I also got a remoulade sauce that I shared with my sister that I added to my rice it's not needed but it adds more flavor and is bussing! My sister got a garlic crab clusters with garlic shrimp corn and potato plate. She gave me a garlic shrimp which is delicious! We also tried the pineapple lemonade which is delicious! They are closed on Sunday and Monday check the schedule. This restaurant is top tie

Ordered on DoorDash and they cancelled. Ended up ordering from taste my garlic crabs instead. It was so good 😩😩😩 I will try to give this place another shot again one day.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lauren Harleston · Dec 2021

Best garlic crabs/seafood spot in the south!!! The savory garlic butter flavored sauce clinched to the snow crab is the absolute best taste ever. Snow crabs cooked to perfection. My favorite fried Dish would be the whitening. Crispy and flaky just how I like it. The fries were hot, fresh and seasoned just right. Of course, I had chef racks signature garlic sauce drizzled on top to my liking. Deliciousness ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Traveled many places none compares to this taste.
