Horrible service, crabs came out re-steamed with dry seasoning. Huge let down.

10 of 24 crabs were spoiled/dead before cooked. Disguisting quality for $$

I ordered carryout and was so disappointed I will never go back! Their medium crabs are probably not even legal. When we got the crabs back to the house to eat and started taking the crabs out of the box we noticed that some of the crabs were just shells. I think what happened was they took some of the crabs off the "All You Can Eat" tables that weren't eaten and put them in the box. We called and complained and they apologized and gave us better crabs and didn't seem too surprised that we complained. Why not just give us the crabs we ordered the first time? There is a lot of competition so don't waste your time here.

Stopped in mid-September. 'Mama' had started her seafood chowder at six that morning (it was noon), and offered a sample. It was divine, and we got a pint for lunch, as well as their crabcake sandwich. Mmm-mmm! We went back and got a quart, and 5 more crabcakes to take with us. Atmosphere is, well, a crab shack, not set up for a 'dining experience'. Prices were expensive, but worthy of the food we got. I see they are closed for the season (November now). Hope they'll be open next March!

Ordered a dozen LARGE to go. Checked the bag and the ones on top were large however, the ones underneath were barely large enough to call small. Some were 3 inches point to point. When I called them, they told me that they decide the size by the weight. WRONG!!!! The Dept. of Natural Resources sets the size limits based on point to point of the crab, weight has nothing to do with it! No claws were on any of the crabs...none.

Speaking of the Dept. of Natural Resouces, I saved the receipt and crab shells and reported them. Officer was dispatched, took the information and will investigate.

When I called Bahama Mama's, they basically told me tough. The owner states no refunds, no exchanges. So I called my credit card company and disputed the charges. Large were $59 a dozen, smalls were 19 a dozen.

THIS IS FRAUD!!!!!!

Also ordered the Cream of Crab Soup...no crab was found in the soup at all. A bland paste with lumps of corn starch and flour was all I got. Also told "Tough" by the owner when I questioned it. Unless it is eaten inhouse, they cannot do anything about it in so far as a refund goes. Strange since this was the one on 78th street that is CARRY OUT ONLY!!!!!

I will call OC Chamber of Commerce in the AM on them.

At least the shrimp were fresh but steamed "spiced" shrimp does not mean steamed shrimp cooked with onion. Spiced means OLD Bay seasoning.

Do yourself a favor, go to Higgin's crab house or Fenwick Crab house and save yourself the hassle. At the very least, go to McDonalds...their Filet-o-fish is better than what they have and you know what you are getting there.
