Reviews for Smashin Crab in San Antonio, TX
The Smashin Crab has the flavor you didn’t know your seafood needed. The overall price for the amount of food, as well as the... included drinks for some of the group selections, is perfect for a family or friend outing. We ordered char-grilled oysters tostart and The Magnolia boil with a margarita flight. There are different spice levels available but if you don’t mind a smallkick 3 is the way to go, and I’m usually on the wimpier side (0). I’ll be adding this to my ‘must-have’ list wheneverI’m in San Antonio! Read more
This place is so amazing!! Our server Justin recommended ‘The Magnolia’ which included the margaritas! Definitely a good... spot to have some great food, drinks, atmosphere, and a great server! We will definitely be back. As Justin said best, “TheBest Seafood in San Antonio”. Read more
My go to for one totally awesome crab boil! I really enjoy the food shopping with the great vibe of this location. The servers... are always on point and the staff is very friendly. My favorite crabs to order are the King, Dungeness, and Snow. I normallyorder the Trinity sauce which is perfection to the boil. It's always a bonus that they have Abita Purple Haze which is one ofmy favorite beers. Great eating and fun that the whole family can enjoy. Yes, it's pricey, but it's crab and that's expected.Highly recommended!! Read more
Feels like a hidden gem! It wasn't full but had a good sized crowd. We ordered a huge platter of food didn't think we could... finish but did with 7 adults and 2 kids. We also ordered an appetizer that had fried calamari, fish, shrimp, and hush puppies.Food was really good the seasoning was on point for sure. One thing that I thought was a bit silly is they charge for butterwe're already ordering a huge amount of food don't know why that can't be complementary. All in all a good experience but beprepared to pay a pretty penny. Read more
We passed by this place while going to our hotel, so we decided to give it a try. This is my first seafood boil restaurant where... no sides comes with the seafood. You have to pay for each corn, potato, and sausage separately. They are very pricey. We went ona Saturday evening and there was a 30 minute wait. The boil seafood, fried catfish, and shrimp was good. The red beans and ricewas nasty. I would eat here again if I’m in the area. Read more
Food pretty good. Shrimp overcooked, hard to peel. Ciara was very friendly. Our order drink was taken n appetizer was suggested... before we even looked at our menu. A little too rushed. Dirty rice not our favorite. Redfish had a good flavor but was very dry.I didn't like it served on my sweet potato fries. Made it hard to eat. We also requested a bowl plate something for our butteredLobster tail. Again, difficult to eat from the bag. I think they could improve on the way they serve their dishes. Noteverything should be in a papered basket. Enough said. Read more
First time here and we had a great meal. Service was outstanding. The fried basket was really good. Dipping sauces were good... too. My only complaint would be the I was given 2 tiny clusters of snow crab along with 3 regular size ones. If you pay over 30bucks a pound you should get some meat with it, not just shell. Then you have to pay extra for corn, potatoes, and sausage.Other than that, it's worth going. Read more
It was a good looking place from the outside prior to walking in, with plenty of outside seating. The manager " Derrick "( we... did not know this walking in) was at the door looking area at the guess outside. Our waitress was named " Treasure " I calledher " Destiny " just because lol. We ordered our choices of food. It arrived, the family noticed the amount of food was alittle lighter than normal as in " Short " not the same " amount " Treasure took this situation to Derrick, who Promptly cameto our table, gave a look at the amount of food in the bowl. He offered the reasons as to why it was so, & said he would takecare of the situation. We ordered a lobster ???? tail roll $$$$$. As well. At the end of the day. The food was good. Treasure& Derrick get BIG THUMBS ???????? ???? ???? ???? UP from my family and myself. The food was good, & we will return. Read more
