the food is SO excellent and it is the best crab on the west coast! I highly recommend the crab bisque, it is amazing! Definitely get the big bucket of crab, it's the best way to get LOTS of crab and lots of different kinds!

It was wonderfully casual, had great food, and the waitresses were very helpful & friendly. Who knew there were so many different kinds of crab?!!

The Big Bucket of seafooed, dumped on the table is AWESOME! The service was excellent, everyone was friendly and the ambiance is really comfortable. We will definately go back!

Always great service and food. We don't visit Pismo without visiting the Cracked Crab. Be sure to try the slipper lobsters - they are the best! We love the casual atmosphere and have fun eating off of the table. Service is always fast and friendly.

My boyfriend and I tried this place on a whim. And we were pleasantly surprised. The food was excellent. We had some of the best fish and chips we had ever tasted. We talked about the food all night long. We are looking forward to another great meal.
