Absolute trash and poor service. The lady with the tattoos who took my order had a dead face on the entire time and seem like she did not want to be there. The crab leg and shrimp were disgustingly mushy. The sauce was okay. I understand all these seafood come frozen but these were just bad. Went here expecting a decent meal but nope.

Great food! Got the chicken wings one time & they tasted like they'd been sitting out all day before they were cooked . But I know how hard food service is & sometimes you'll accidentally let something bad go out the door unknowingly , but I presented them again after that & the same thing . Other than that , the food is awesome

  • Mary Younger

The lady I met there was nice, but the food really upset my stomach. This is the third time that I have had crab this week and I have never had an upset stomach from eating it. It was also really thin poor quality crab and hard to get the meat out of. I spent $40 and am not going to finish my dinner. More

WOW ,Under New Mangement ,I love the food here, I have lived in Tampa my whole life and this restaurant has had consistent quality of phenomenal mind blowing food despite what menu you order from; Authentic Chinese food . My favorite restaurant in Tampa by far, even their service is superb.

I ordered take out today.The food tasted ok but about a good 30 minutes after I finished my stomach began hurting. I'm been going to the bathroom ever since. My stomach hurts so bad it's almost midnight and I can't sleep my stomach is killing me and I'm back and forth to this bathroom.

Amazing little gem in Tampa! I went there with my friends and we absolutely loved it. The customer service at the window helped us choose the right amount of food, and recommended the sauces. Overall, the food was great, great location, fantastic atmosphere.

The seafood is high quality- no mushy shrimp like you get at some of those big chains. Great price and service. The food is so fast like 10-15 mins. A nice little seating area too with napkins, bucket, and they have plastic gloves. This is a hidden gem!

  • Lashabra Plunkett

The best seafood that I have ever had in life. Seafood is my favorite thing to eat. The Cajun and Garlic butter 1/2 ibs shrimp with no head and 1/2 ibs crab legs were very well worth it!!! Spent about $30, I can’t wait to go back tomorrow!!!

  • Maria Smith

I called the store to inform them of the food that they sent to my home instead of owning that maybe there is room for improvement I was only given excuses. I did not want to go back-and-forth with the merchant so I hung up the young ladies

  • Wendy Abad

I don't usually write reviews but I had to this time. I was back in Florida for a couple of days and me and my girls wanted to get seafood. I have no idea how we stumbled across Happy Crab but it is truly a hidden gem. I have been back home

I went on Friday with my mom. We had two shrimp and crab trays, one butter garlic with no spice, and one with all the seasonings and mild spice. Both trays were perfect (hence, no pictures because we devoured them ). The staff was super

  • Latisha Turnbull

Me and my fiancé tried this place for the first time yesterday. Now I can honestly say that the seasoning in itself was very good. We sat inside and ate our food. The young Chinese lady that took our order was nonchalant and didn’t seem to

The customer service is wonderful and I absolutely love the Happy vibes. They made the restaurant look amazing with all the decorations. And the food is out of this world yummy. Im a spicy lover but for those who don't like the spice they

Its a small place in a slightly rough neighborhood, but the food was delicious. Its worth the trip. There are only around 5 tables. It wasn't busy when I went, but there was always at least one person ordering food. I ordered the Special

HORRIBLE!! That the only word to describe it. From the service to the food was bad. Went there Saturday 3/13, a group of 4. We ordered oysters for our appetizer, our food and drinks. Our entire arrived first. Then our drinks. Opened the

Absolutely delicious!!! Great quality crab and the flavors are out of this world delicious. Highly recommend! I ordered through Uber eats which I wasn’t too sure about but everything was perfect. Hot food, no mess, packed to perfection.

  • Melissa Burnham (www.CoiledCrystal.com)

For the same money you can sit in a nice restaurant. The $33 crab legs had 1 claw and it tasted a bit fishy. The sauce is really good but the seafood itself was suspect. The shrimp with heads were mushy but the headless were firm and

  • Intimate Coley

The food was good best seafood around and its fresh! Customer Service was great she made sure I knew what I was getting and answered all my questions. Absolutely worth the money hands down; most definitely will be back.

  • frederick furmam sr.

My cousin and I were visiting from out of town. This place is the best. You can put the sauce in a cup and I'll drink it, and this will be my go to place everytime I come home. Shout out. Go big red "HHS"

1. At 10:15 PM on a Friday night, they were the only crab spot that was open till 11 pm like the google hours stated! 2. It was well lit with light and very nice and clean inside, even the bathroom.
