The Dancing Crab - Menu

Food was amazing!!! Perfectly cooked. Trust me, I know when seafood is over cooked. They definitely make sure to cook to perfection. Service was also amazing! Ask for Gypsy she is the BEST waitress and her service is amazing!!!

Visited this location for a birthday dinner and it was so/so. They didn’t have any blue crabs but they did have my 2nd FAVORITE Dungeness crabs. The food was okay. They have a good amount of specials that will not hurt your pockets. We were able to catch happy hour and those drinks were strongggg. I loved that for US!

This place was amazing! We were driving by on a Friday night and decided to stop in, and we’re so glad we did! The food was incredibly flavorful. You definitely have to try all the sauces mixed together for the boil; it was fantastic! The fried shrimp as an appetizer was also excellent! Samantha, our waitress, was outstanding! View menu

I’m not usually a fan of seafood restaurants, but this place really surprised me! It has a lively atmosphere, delicious food, and friendly service, plus some fantastic lunch deals. I absolutely love the chowder! The lunch combos offer generous portions, and the variety of seasoning options really enhances the experience. I had a wonderful time and can’t wait to visit again when I'm in Altamonte Springs.

I stopped by for a late lunch on a hot day and was greeted by a refreshing blast of air conditioning. They have a fantastic Happy Hour with 2-for-1 cold beers from 12 PM to 6 PM every day. The crab legs with their custom seasoning were delicious, and I also tried the fried shrimp appetizer. The shrimp were large, and the batter was light and crispy. I definitely plan to return for dinner. The decor is really cool, and the music adds to the great dining experience.

The food is tasty, but the seafood portions are disappointingly small, with the shellfish being particularly lacking. Whatever you do, don’t order the lobster tails, as you'll likely feel insulted by the size—I've seen crayfish that are larger. The portion sizes in relation to the prices are simply unacceptable. We visited twice to give it another chance, but it was just as disappointing the second time around. It's best to steer clear of this place; you'll be much happier elsewhere. View menu

The customer service was decent, and the staff seemed friendly. However, the fried food was either overcooked or prepared in old oil, with some pieces look nearly burnt. The seafood was bland and lacked any real flavor. We couldn't finish our meal and ended up throwing it away. While the food wasn't terrible, it wasn't enjoyable either. The restaurant is just average; it’s neither great nor awful. The prices were reasonable for what we received, but I wouldn’t choose to dine here again.

We visited for lunch on April 9, 2022, and it was an incredible experience! From the moment we arrived, the hostess greeted us warmly and showed us to our seats. Our server, Jasmine, was fantastic—she took the time to explain the menu and drinks in detail. She was attentive and always ready to offer assistance. A big thank you to Jasmine! The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered a family combo that included a little bit of everything, and it was finger-licking good! I will definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to bring my whole family back very soon!

The seafood boil was super salty and the potatoes were a bit hard(I’ve definitely had wayyyy better on the east side). I also got wings, which were nearly burned. The sweet potato fries were great. Oh, they also mixed up my boil with someone else’s so I had to drive back to the restaurant for a swap and wing remake. When they saw the wings and felt one they were like, “Oh! It is hard”. Too much of a hassle for salty and burned food. The ladies that greeted me were very sweet and friendly even though it was really hot in the establishment. The AC was broken that day. View menu
