The food is spectacular. The service is good. Nicole served us; she’s incredible with her suggestions and her hospitality. Some friends told us the place wasn’t going to be luxurious, but the food is luxurious; even the smallest detail is exquisite. For me, that’s all that matters. And the place is beautiful. If I go out to eat, I want luxurious food; everything else is relative, but I must emphasize that the place is lovely and has a very family-friendly feel.

First time here and they were very accommodating especially with 2 toddlers and a stroller. Our server Armando was nice, friendly, patient and attentive. All his recommendations were on point. All the food we ordered came out fresh and delicious, and drinks were refreshing. I recommend the shark attack cocktail since the mojito and the strawberry lemonade were served in a small glass. Anastasia, their photographer, also takes photos of your party and even provides one small complementary pic. The rest of the photos are available for purchase, if wanted. We had a great time and hope to return soon.

Food is tasty. Bisque was delicious. Crab meat salad wedge was filling. Crab meat was served chilled and tasted ok.
Took a few minutes to get acknowledged by server. Also overheard another server telling some customers they could not choose the table they wanted because there was a rotation of seating chart…
Once server came to get order he was quick and attentive afterwards.
I first went to the restaurant when I was 11 years old in the early 80s I’ve since moved away a long time ago, but still find my way back there every once in a while.

We had a wonderful lunch at Rustic Inn Crabhouse at 4331 Anglers Ave in Fort Lauderdale. We were two people and enjoyed dining on the porch, which had a very pleasant and relaxed atmosphere.
We ordered the crab sampler with potatoes, paired with an Italian Pinot Grigio, and everything was absolutely delicious. The seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked, and the portions were generous.
The service was efficient and friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, the atmosphere, food quality, and service made this visit truly memorable.
It’s a perfect place to celebrate a birthday or enjoy a family gathering, especially if you love great seafood in a welcoming setting. Highly recommended!

Crab platter is sooo good! I’m a huge crab lover so it was everything I could ask for. Fried calamari and new England clam chowder were great too. My husband had the warm lobster roll and key lime pie and he liked both. We celebrated my birthday day and it was a really fun environment

SOLID Four stars. The queen crab legs were the clear standout…easily the best thing on the table and worth coming back for. The garlic Dungeness crab was good and flavorful, just not on the same level. Service and atmosphere were both fine, nothing special. Overall, it was a solid meal, but there’s definitely room to step it up.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 — Birthday Perfection at Rustic Inn Crab House
My husband surprised me today for my birthday and wow — what an amazing experience! Messy and perfectly delicious! From the moment we arrived, Freddie treated us like royalty. I even got a souvenir mallet to take home (best birthday favor ever ).
The vibe is mega casual, unpretentious, and down-to-earth — exactly the kind of hidden gem you want yo visit again and again. And the food… my goodness, the food! Fresh, delicious, and seasoned to absolute perfection. We had the crab sampler and devoured every last bite. And as if that wasn’t enough, stone crab season is back — and they’re perfect!
We washed everything down with a couple of beers and then the entire restaurant broke into the Happy Birthday song. Ended the night with what can only be described as a slice of heaven, aka their key lime pie.
A lovely, memorable evening. Rustic Inn is a whole vibe — 10/10 recommend!

We had a really nice dinner here with friends. The waiter was really helpful and paid attention to our needs. The food was very good. Pricey, but good. We had the gator and frog leg appetizer! It was interesting !

Excellent seafood. Went for dinner and had to wait for 5 minutes but was seated efficiently. Server kept pushing crabs, but we were not interested. She had good knowledge of the menu and made other recommendations. Grilled fish platters and BBQ platter were delicious. Service a little off, but it was very busy, so not a problem. Seafood is excellent. Worth the trip.

I enjoyed their food and ate in the back outside by the water. I came for their Tuesday special which is the fried fish sandwich served with fries or potatoes, coleslaw, and includes ice tea or soda for $9.95 plus tax and tip if you choose served till 2:45pm. I was only disappointed because my server wasn’t attentive enough and forgot about refilling my drink when it became empty and also forgot to serve the coleslaw with my food. Otherwise then that everything else was good.
