"Blue Crab offers solid, fresh and no frills seafood right on the water, where kids can watch all the boats go by while snacking on fried shrimp and the like — the fried seafood is a star here. Usually live music on the weekends, adding to a fun atmosphere. See also, Lakefront restaurant Felix’s." - Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
