Rustic crab house with a huge outdoor area featuring shaded tables and a kid-friendly playground creates a lively, casual vibe. Music plays loudly during lunch, and the back patio often hosts rowdy groups with speakers. Inside space is very small, emphasizing outdoor dining and a dive bar atmosphere.
