Cracked Crab, Pismo Beach

This is an AWESOME place to eat. What an experience! Great food dumped in the middle of the table for all to dive in and eat what they want. I can't wait to go back.

If you go, you must get the clam chowder and the fried king crab appetizer. Its a little pricey at $25.00 for just soup and an appetizer but you cannot beat the taste with a stick. Excellent food; do not miss it.

Love this restaurant. Always visit every chance we get. Have sent many of our friends. Great food & service!! Hope to visit again next month and have some of their great fish tacos!!

Yummy food, Very nice staff, kid friendly, close to beach and clean what more do you need at a restaurant!

In March, I got the chance to go to the Cracked Crab, my experience was awesome, the best service, the best crab, I would recommend it to everyone, its a bit pricey but worth every penny. Joyce from Maine

I ate at the Cracked Crab on my last evening at Pismo Beach. They had the BEST clam chowder hands down that I had while on my visit. Some of my family members had a great time with the bibs and the bucket meal. Tons of delicious food. Our waitress was great and the service was awesome. We walked in the door and two young ladies opened the doors for us and welcomed us in. Very friendly!! We observed how efficently and smoothly EVERYONE worked. This restaurant is a must!

The Cracked Crab is a wonderful restaurant. They feature fresh fish and shellfish. We had a great time in bibs cracking up a storm with mallets and tools. Everything was well prepared and delicious. The service was very attentive and friendly. The bucket meal was well worth the cost. This restaurant is tops in our book of great places to go for a good meal.

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!
