Reviews for The Juicy Crab Montgomery in Montgomery, AL

Let me get this out first. If you are in Montgomery or somewhere close and if you love southern boil and seafood, please make it... a point and go eat at this restaurant, you will thank me later. Our experience here was fantastic. My sister took me here and Ican't thank her enough for that. The place is just lively and full of life. The servers are all energetic and seemed to lovewhat they were doing, which is great. The management must treat them right. The restaurant has a warm ambience and is reallyclean. The tiki hut at the entrance was a really nice touch and makes you feel at ease right away. The restaurant can host largegroups, too. Our server was Alexis and she was really pleasant. The menu has a mix of seafood and southern fried foods. Alsofeatures a kids menu. I ordered some raw oysters. They also have boiled and fried ones. Had been a minute I had tried some. Itwas pretty fresh and tasted amazing, buttery and creamy. My sister ordered the half pound shrimp(no heads) with cajun seasoning. Came in a large bag with potato and corn and was piping hot. I tried some and my god they were so good. The seasoning was justperfect. Southern taste at its best. I got myself the seafood combo with crawfish, black mussels and shrimp. Came in a largeplastic bag, too, piping hot, with whole potatoes and corn. I opted for the juicy crab special seasoning and wow, the flavors,they just exploded in my mouth. The seasoning was a perfect blend of butter, lemon pepper, cajun seasoning. It was just heaven.The crawfish and black mussels felt great. Although it was mid of July when we were here, the crawfish felt fresh to me. Thepotatoes and corn were other highlights. We truly enjoyed our experience here. It's a must visit in my opinion. So, what makesthis restaurant amazing; the happy and energetic staff, the amazing southern taste and the laidback ambience that makes you feelyou are on an island right in the middle of Alabama. It's amazing. We actually went back the Read more

This was so, so good. Our server helped us make some excellent choices. We had the catfish basket, popcorn shrimp, steamed... oysters, steamed corn, and hush puppies all of it was delicious. Read more

Tried Juicy Crab for the first time. Staff seemed a little inatentive as we had to interrupt two employees in conversation to be... seated. The menu is composed of fixed meals and a la carte fare. Prices are as you would expect but food is plentiful, justdon't expect to get out for less than $25 per person. I ordered the half pound shrimp, mussels and sausage, mild and juicy.Juicy, by the way is every seasoning. My companions split the pound of headless and pound of head on shrimp. The meal arrivedafter a short wait. You are presented with a waste bucket, bibs, and gloves to make the rather messy meal less so. I found theseasoning overwhelming, completely hiding the taste of the mussels, the shrimp less so but still more seasoning than shrimp. Mycompanions felt the seasoning was heavy but still good. All in all it was fine and will probably eat her again but don't lookfor it to become a regular staple on the dinner circuit as the dinner for three, with tip and no drinks, was $75. And remember,two people split an entree. Read more

My husband and I just had one of the best experiences at the Juicy Crab! Our food was hot and delicious , and our server, Jamya,... was awesome! She was very attentive to us and was so pleasant! Read more

The service was great; our server, Bella was friendly, prompt, and professional. I only gave three stars because my chicken... tenders were rubbery (it was a company luncheon). The fries were seasoned very well, the hush puppies were great, and the friedcalamari was okay. Read more

Sometimes you just want to release some stress and enjoy the atmosphere. If this is what you want, come to The Juicy Crab for... every day Happy Hour. I wasn't in the mood this time for seafood so I ordered the Juicy Special boiled eggs along with arefreshing $5.00 margarita. I enjoyed great company and had great service. Thanks Payton! You are the best???? Read more

Payton our server was excellent and very helpful. The food was good but we ordered the fried shrimp basket so we didn?t give a... lot of room for originality. Next time I would have the steamed basket which Payton tried to tell us to get. The lady in thebooth next to us got the steamed and said it?s her favorite to order. The hush puppies were very good and the mango lemon dropwas very yummy. Read more
