happy crab seafood

If you're cruising through Goose Creek, SC, and your stomach starts rumbling for some seriously good seafood, let me point you toward a local gem: Happy Crab Seafood. Tucked away at 117 Plantation N Blvd Ste C, this spot is all about delivering bold flavors and hearty portions that'll make your taste buds dance.

Now, let's talk about their fried baskets—because, honestly, they're a game-changer. The Fried Shrimp Basket is a fan favorite, serving up crispy, golden shrimp that are just the right amount of crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. If you're more into fish, the Fried Catfish Basket won't disappoint; it's seasoned to perfection and fried just right. And for those who love a bit of variety, the Fried Oyster Basket offers a delightful twist with its rich, briny flavor.

But wait, there's more. If you're feeling adventurous, their seafood combos are a must-try. Imagine a platter piled high with snow crab legs, succulent shrimp, and maybe even a lobster tail, all seasoned with your choice of garlic butter, lemon pepper, or their signature Cajun spice. It's the kind of meal that makes you want to roll up your sleeves and dive in.

And let's not forget the sides. From hush puppies to Cajun fries, each bite complements the main course, rounding out a meal that's as satisfying as it is flavorful.

Whether you're a local or just passing through, Happy Crab Seafood offers a laid-back atmosphere where the food speaks for itself. So next time you're in the area, swing by and treat yourself to a seafood feast that'll leave you planning your next visit before you've even left the table.

Day: Monday Weather: Sunny Time: Noonish Seating: Booth, inner wall & TVs available to watch. Not sure how long this happy crab place has been around but my uncle suggested that we go here for our birthday, that's both in February. Since we came around noon, we pretty much were able to sit where we wanted to. This location has a bar area too if you want to grab some drinks AND although I sat at a table booth I did order a beer while we waited. We ordered from the fried section: shrimp, oysters, and catfish. Then also ordered the: onion rings, hush puppies, and cajun fries for the side. Oh, and let me not forget the oysters ... my uncle ordered those too. Every thing was hot, tasty, & delicious! I will be back to order from the broiled section but there's other combinations on the menu too ... I recommend this place to anyone who's feeling like they want to enjoy some seafood. My uncle paid the bill so I didn't see the receipt but he was satisfied with the price range based on quality. I even got a cheesecake at the end of my meal with a candle because it was my birthday and the entire time the male server was helpful, knowledgeable and courteous!! Great service! Attaching pictures too! Happy crab did put a quality smile on our faces ... thank you ... until next time ... cheers

Didn't look big from the outside, but it's very spacious inside!! Looks like they even have live bands or some type of entertainment. Nice full bar! Parking outside was plentiful. I called in my order, be aware there is a $1 connivence fee to order online. Pick up time estimated was correct. Food was good. But not sure about the rice, tasted more like sticky rice than what I'm use to. Portion was perfect for two people. Asked for a side of melted butter, they were very accommodating. Over all they were very nice. Everything I needed was in the bag when I got home.

Oh man the Dungeness crabs are the bomb and the fried oysters are so good try the whiting too. And the seasoned fries oh my! Pace yourself or you'll hurt yourself and come out of the door buttered down but without a frown
