Where can I find the best Crab Legs?

[DisDarling]

I was curious what restaurant on property has crab legs. Does anyone know if Orlando or Kissimee has a Joes Crab Shack? Thanks!!

Anyone?

There is one in Celebration, Florida. I love the crab legs at Fulton's...and can't wait to have them when we celebrate our special 25th anniversary dinner there in September.

Joe's Crab Shack is in Celebration on Hwy 192, just outside of WDW property. Enjoy!

On property, Fulton's in DTD has great seafood including crab legs.

Thank you!!! I just ate at a Joes Crab Shack last weekend in IL, and I LOVED it!!! So who is better, Joes or Fultons? Happy early Anniversary- ours is 15 years on 9/14 and we will be in MK that day!

Fulton's is definitely more upscale and therefore more expensive than Joe's. If it is an anniversary thing - I would pick Fulton's. Just my opinion.

And happy anniversary!

On our February trip this year I had crab legs at Coral Reef and we were on the dining plan. There were yummy I thought but I hadn't had them in over 20 years. Hope this helps.

Just had the Crab Legs at Fultons in April on our trip...they were Awesome...very very good service there too...much more romantic than Joe's...all of which are closing here in michigan for some reason...must be the economy...

We just ate at Joe's Crab Shack in Celebration during our trip a couple of weeks ago even though we were staying on property. It was our 1st time there and we really enjoyed it. The prices were pretty good, too.

Hmm....we've done Joe's in Downers Grove, IL and it was good. However, Fulton's is much better. It is also much more expensive...but we think worth it. Our anniversary was actually in May but we couldn't get away then with kids coming home from school (and the one graduating college)...plus my dad ended up in CCU on our 25th anniversary. We like going in September anyway--less crowded and free food.
Happy Anniversary and have a magical time at the MK on your special day.

There is a Joe's right around the corner from the DTD Hotels...Take Hotel Plaza Blvd North (main road between hotels) to the end (traffic light). Turn left Joes is on the left about 1/2 mile down.....It is a very good Joe's, we have eaten at about 4 different ones....its one of the best....

A few good rest. right in that area.....a grocery store in the crossroads shopping center...

What the hey, do both....Joe's for the fun and Fultons for the anniv. celebration!!!!!

Sorry to hear Joe's is closing in Mi, we go to the one in Ann Arbor when in the area......love the shirts!!!

They have been removed from the Coral Reef menu for now.

As maj42169 pointed out, you can't be certain there will be crab legs on the menu at Coral Reef. So don't make that your plan.

I am a big seafood lover, and crab in particular. I am from the Pacific NW, and we get some of the best crab in the entire nation. That said, Fulton's Specialty, the Crab Claws, was the BEST CRAB I HAVE EVER HAD. We split the crab claws meal, and shared their caesar (which I have to say was also one of the best caesar salads I have ever had, and asked for the recipe, which the chef wrote down for me personally!), and dessert, and it was amaaazing. So great in fact, we splurged big time and went back a second night in a row and got one full crab claw meal EACH so we wouldn't have to share (it is SPENDY, this meal, and we were at the end of our trip so low on funds, but it was worth it!!).

Our next trip will be this coming December, and we cannot WAIT to hit Fulton's and have the crab claws again. If you want crab, you simply MUST go to Fulton's!!

I will add as a final note that the service we got there was also stellar. We are not the best about speaking up about really good or really bad experiences to management (we should be better), but it was so great, we took a manager aside as we were leaving and made a point of mentioning it. And since we went two nights in a row, I can attest that the food and service were not a fluke--both nights were memorable and well worth the money!
