Reviews for Crafty Crab Seafood & Bar - Kenwood in Cincinnati, OH

Good and enjoyed. Not as good as places I?ve been similar that had fresh gently steamed in bag broccoli as option and they did... not get my order right or still put the mix seasoning not just garlic butter in my bag. Too much seasoning takes away from goodand overly salty Read more

The atmosphere and waiter was nice . The lemon pepper wings were amazing. My crab legs were not cleaned properly and they were... luke warm . The season on the crab legs was not flavorful. I ordered a frozen drink and the ice was not blended well so it hada lot of ice chips in it. Read more

I went to Crafty Crab with my sister in law this morning. The restaurant opens at 12, but the staff didn?t show up to unlock the... door until 12:02. We sat for almost an hour before our food was served because kitchen ?is taking a while to get ready?. Wetipped over 25% anyway because we used to work in restaurants and felt bad for the server. Then on my way out to pick up my kidsfrom school, my car was blocked by the ladder of their delivery truck. I waited patiently for them to deliver two loads beforeasking them to simply lift the back ladder so I can squeeze out- - to which I was told impatiently ?can?t you just wait?? Iexplained that I couldn?t, I had to pick my kids up, and was ignored. Then I asked the restaurant guys to ask the delivery guyto just lift the back ladder, which takes almost no time nor effort, the restaurant worker replied to me ?that?s not my problem,his delivery is for the owner, not for me. Go talk to the owner.? I then asked to speak to the owner, and was told ?she?s nothere, she rarely comes in.? I had to wait for two more deliveries before able to move my car and was late to pick my childrenup. For a restaurant that opens at 12, kitchen should be ready to serve at 12, not just unlocking and prepping. They held us upuntil after 1 to serve our food, then blocked my car and rudely told me that?s not their problem, go talk to the owner who?snever there? I can hardly see an establishment such as this stay in business for long. I would never go back again Read more

The Blue Crab and Head On Shrimp were fantastic in the cajun sauce. I have never had them prepared in a "wet" cajun. Reminded me... of a cross between Old Bay and Tony Chacheres in butter. The blues were pre topped and split in half. Taste was again on point,but not the Chesapeake Bay style a lot of folks might be expecting. The Oysters, unfortunately, did not agree with my belly.They were good, came with lemon, cocktail and a horseradish? like paste (another new one for me). They were VERY mild onsalinity. I'd likely go for a cooked version next round. I would love to try their full on crab boil. Unfortunately I was solo?. Hostess was amazing! Very attentive and friendly! Read more

Great seafood done in a steam cooking bag. It really brings out all the flavors of the lobster, shrimp, crab, or any other... shellfish along with the red new potatoes and corn on the cob! Wonderful place to kickback and enjoy a fresh seafood boil alongwith your favorite cocktail or beer! Read more

Solid seafood boil, quick and friendly service. Drinks are average. Fried shrimp was not great. I wish they had coconut fried... shrimp. All in all if you have a hankering for a seafood boil in Cincinnati this is the place to go, it?s what they are goodat. If you want anything else you should probably go elsewhere. Read more

A friend and I went for lunch today and to see if it was as good as we heard. We were not disappointed!! Customer service was... excellent and the Food was steaming hot and delicious. I had the blue crab boil and my friend had the fried shrimp basket, justperfect. Can't wait to go back! The only dings, I didn't care for the butter and they don't have Old Bay Seasoning. That said,still 5 stars!! Read more

We loved the crispness of the fried oyster, onion rings and the shrimp on the salad. The snow crab & shrimp boils are amazing. I... had the 1/2 lb with buttery garlic and the other order was 1 lb with The Boom! I have had better Key Lime pie. Read more
