CRAFTY CRAB – Seafood
On NW 27th Avenue in Miami Gardens, dinner arrives knotted in a bag and lands on the table still steaming.

Pick mild, medium or fire. The rest of the card covers fried catfish, tilapia and oyster baskets, wings, calamari, raw and steamed oysters, cheese sticks, gumbo, hush puppies, coleslaw and cheesecake. Noon until ten, an hour later Friday and Saturday.
