“ We’ve been to The Mighty Crab three times now, and every visit has been fantastic! The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The atmosphere is fun and casual, perfect for getting a little messy and enjoying great seafood. Service is always top-notch — a big shoutout to our waitress Kelly, who made the experience even better with her friendliness and attention to detail. Definitely one of our go-to spots when we’re craving seafood. Highly recommend! ”

“ I had a wonderful dining experience. The atmosphere was cozy, with a relaxed vibe that made for a perfect evening out. The menu was impressive, offering a variety of fresh seafood options. I decided to go with the “Snow crab legs, and shrimp, which was cooked to perfection—flavorful, and paired beautifully with a light lemon-butter sauce. The sides were equally yoked. Came with corn and potatoes What truly made the meal special, however, was the service. Victoria, our waitress, was exceptional. She greeted me warmly and made great recommendations from the menu. Her timing was perfect she checked in just enough to ensure I had everything i needed without being overbearing. Her friendly demeanor and attention to detail added to the overall enjoyable experience. It was clear she genuinely cared about making my evening memorable. Thanks Victoria. 8/10 for sure ”

“ Want something delicious with lots of flavor? This place has it all! We had boiled shrimp and scallops Cajun flavor with garlic butter on the spicy side! Oh so good!!! Butter with the bread could use some garlic in it but otherwise, good! Restaurant was clean and service was great! ”

“ I've been a loyal customer of one of the long-standing seafood spots in town for years, but lately, the extended wait times—both to be seated and to receive food—have become increasingly frustrating. On a whim, I decided to give **The Mighty Crab** a try, and I have to say, it completely exceeded my expectations. I may have just found my new go-to seafood destination. From the moment you walk in, the customer service is nothing short of outstanding. On both of my visits, I was lucky enough to be served by Mariana, who is consistently attentive, respectful, and genuinely kind. You’re greeted warmly, seated quickly, and your food arrives much faster than expected—something that makes a huge difference when dining out. The food itself is absolutely delicious. I usually order the boiled shrimp with Cajun seasoning (hot), and unlike many places that just pile on extra seasoning without adding real depth or heat, The Mighty Crab gets it just right. Their seasoning has an actual kick that brings the dish to life—spicy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. I’m also really impressed with what they’ve done with the building. The transformation from its previous life as a Chinese restaurant to its current vibrant, coastal-themed design is nothing short of impressive. The space feels fresh, clean, and inviting. Every staff member I’ve encountered has been on point—professional, friendly, and clearly committed to delivering an exceptional dining experience. In short, The Mighty Crab offers a level of service and quality that’s hard to find these days. Highly recommend giving them a try—you might just find your new favorite seafood spot, too. ”

“ If you ask me about one of my favorite seafood places to eat in East Texas, I’ll tell you the same thing every single time. The Mighty Crab. So when my son said he wanted some amazing seafood for his 18th birthday, I instantly knew where to take him. He’s somehow never tried it with all the times I’ve been. It was really packed when we arrived and they already had some live music going, but the wait honestly wasn’t too bad. I ended up ordering 3 pounds of shrimp, with extra potatoes, corn on the cob, and eggs. I asked for the Mighty Special flavor, which is a mixture of lemon pepper, cajun, and garlic butter. It’s what makes the dish. We also got an order of dumplings and some of the best sesame chicken and noodles you’ll find in Tyler. The food came out in no time and we all started digging in. I already knew what I was in for, but my oldest had no idea the flavor he was about to experience. He explained it as one of the best flavor combinations he’s ever had in his 18 years of living lol. With every bite he took, I could tell he was becoming hooked. It might he hard to tell in the pictures, but there’s at least 2 inches of liquid gold (mighty special seasoning and garlic butter) at the bottom of the tray. As always, the service was great. I believe his name was Nick and the live music honestly sounded really good. Thank you for the great hospitality Hua Zheng. Your attitude and personality can light up a room If you haven’t already, go try this place asap and don’t forget to ask for the Mighty Special when it comes time to choose your flavoring. ”

“ We had gator bites for the appetizer. My husband got the "weekend special" which came with 1/2 lb snow crab, 1/2 lb lobster tail, and 1/2lb boiled shrimp (no heads) with boiled potatoes, corn, and broccoli in a Cajun broth. It came out in an airtight bag that you untie and pour on your tray. They also bring you a few utensils and a scrap bucket for your crab legs. You can also choose your preferred level of spice (Nonspicy, mild, hot, extra hot). I got the fried catfish basket with the Cajun fries. It was all so delicious! Overall, it was a great experience. They had such a fun atmostphere, great food, impressive entertainment, and friendly service. We recommend this location and will definitely be back! ”
