Reviews for The Juicy Crab Hoover in Hoover, AL
Shrimp seems like the primary offering. Cajun seasoning seemed to over power the shrimp, but was good. Overall experience was... enjoyable. Save your money and skip the mixed drinks, 2/3 ice in a small glass. I will go back and try some of the otherselections. Read more
This was the worst service I have gotten from the minute we walked in I felt like a inconvenience to the staff. She ended up... sitting us by the bar and the bartender was our server. The 3 of us all ordered crab and she only brought us one cracker and onebutter. When we went to pay she picked up our cards and came back and threw the checks on the table and left. We wanted to talkto a manger but the entire staff went and hid in the kitchen we waited about 5 minutes and left. It was such a shame because thefood was fantastic but if definitely wasn?t not worth it because the wait staff is that terrible. Read more
The food was excellent, the seafood was perfectly cooked and the sauce was phenomenal! If you order a combo, it?s enough to... serve about 2-3 people so you get plenty of food. The wings were also perfectly cooked. Looking forward to eating in therestaurant, it looks great inside. Read more
This place is a JOKE, substitutions are not allowed on the combo menu items. The Talapia taste like processed fish. Voiced our... concerns to the manager Corey and he was unbothered. Let?s not mention the unpleasant music full of profanity degradingmusic! We should have run we pulled up and was immediately seated . Also should you decide to take advantage of the freebirthday offer, make certain your party is 6 or more. I selected a one star because that was the least star to select to providea rating . Our visit deserves 1/2 stars! The 1/2 star is for the corn First and very last visit. I personally see the restaurantbeing short lived Read more
It was Cinco De Mayo 5/5 and due to the crowds at the local Mexican restaurants forced us to look elsewhere for dinner. It was... not crowded at the Juicy Crab with just a few cars in the parking lot. When we entered the bar was closed to customers butdrinks were available. Luckily they had just gotten their liquor license on 5/4 the day before. Perfect timing. I ordered a GoatIsland Blood Orange Wheat beer and a chilled glass arrived but the can was warm. The server asked me if this was all right butafter accepting it this way I regretted it. I still can?t understand why the beer wasn?t chilled? My wife ordered Mr. Pibb butreceived Fanta root beer instead. I tasted it and it was indeed root beer. The server told us this was all they had but themanager came over and said they had Dr. Pepper. The menu doesn?t state it and the manager?s explanation was the server hadsimply pressed the wrong selection. Once the new soda arrived it wasn?t Dr. Pepper but we?re not sure what it was but at leastit wasn?t root beer! We ordered cheese sticks for our appetizer. For our entrée?s my wife ordered popcorn chicken with sweetpotato waffle fries while I ordered the Juicy Crab number 1 combo consisting of sausage, shrimp, potato, and corn. It was goodand spiced right. I felt there was fair amount of food for the money. I should have used the bib and the plastic gloves theygave me but this is my fault as it was all over the front of my shirt and I had to wash my hands before we left. The popcornshrimp were all right and better the day. The sweet potato waffle fries were crispy and better than some places we?ve been. Ourwaitress was friendly and semi attentive. I am not sure when we?ll return here as there are a lot of other Seafood restaurantsin Birmingham and surrounding areas we haven?t tried yet but this not a reflection of this restaurant?s food or service.

Came in here not knowing what to expect. Coming from Omaha Nebraska and wanting to try something new. I was very pleased with... the menu options for sausage and shrimp juicy style mild they were so good. The wait staff ?ARII?was amazing really took thetime to help me decide what to eat. Food came out fast and hot. Read more
