Crazy Crab recently opened a location in Glen Bernie, and a friend and myself decided to come check it out, as they have an AYCE seafood boil option.
The restaurant itself is new, and you can tell. It's large and spacious, with plenty of seating for large groups, a huge bar area, and lots of TVs perfect for watching sports. The music is good, although weirdly they don't feel compelled to pay for the premium subscription, so be prepared to listen to commercials.
The drinks are reasonably priced, and they have HH every day except Saturdays. Go ahead and get the Too Shelf LIT. One is enough to get you there.
As mentioned before, we decided to do the all you can eat seafood boil option. Everyone in your party must pick this option. For the starters, we got the crab balls, catfish, and lemon pepper wings. Each of the items were good and tasty.
We got the crabs, mussels, shrimp, scallops, and snow crab for our seafood boils. For 2 people, they provided quite a bit of food on each round. 4 clusters of crab, a number of shrimp/scallops, 2 corns, 3 potatoes, and 3 sausages came along with each boil. We tried both the Crazy special sauce, and Cajun/garlic butter mix, as well as the Fire for the spice level.
The "sauce" is WAY too oily. All of the oil overpowers whatever flavor may be in the oil. We didn't like it at all. The fire spice level was good - not too hot and tolerable. If you're not a fan of heat, but still want a little kick, I would stick with the medium or hot.
Unless they reformulate the sauce, I will not be back to Crazy crab. The 3 stars are for the stellar service, AYCE deal, good drinks, and nice atmosphere. Not sure I would recommend this spot to friends, but again, I'll definitely come back if they change their sauce.
