We had an incredible experience at Rusty Crab Daddy! Our server, Spasa, was absolutely amazing — friendly, attentive, and genuinely memorable. She made the whole meal feel special with her upbeat personality and great recommendations. It’s rare to have a server who leaves such a lasting impression, but Pass truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend Rusty Crab Daddy, and if you get the chance, ask for Pass — she’ll make your visit unforgettable!

Once again back in St George and out trying new places. My wife and the rest of the group wanted seafood and this place has it all. When we arrived the lot was pretty full and we got the last 2 spots. Once we walked in we were greeted right away and a table was available. We were seated promptly. The table and restaurant were clean and comfortable it wasn't too noisy even though it was busy. Our server Bryden came over right away and got our drinks going. Shortly after we placed our orders. There was some confusion with wanting to sub out shrimp due to a shrimp allergy but we worked it out. It did seem off that you couldn't sub something due to an allergy but what can you do. I'm not a seafood person so I got some chicken and fries. It was ok but this isn't a chicken joint so I wasn't expecting perfection. The huge boils came out and were massive. There was plenty for everyone and nothing was left behind. Everyone really enjoyed all the different morsels and I don't think much was left. Overall the service was good as well as the food. We would definitely visit again.

I hadn’t had such an incredible boil in so long, and this place hit the spot. It was our first time here and not only was the food incredible, our server, Spasa, was very sweet and informative. She helped us order the perfect meal. Will be back!

Stopped in St George for a birthday weekend and celebrated at Rusty Crab Daddy. Spasa , our server, took great care of our crew. Even when one of the boils came out without class, she made it right so quickly. Thank you! A happy birthday was enjoyed! (Dont miss the beignets!)

We used to come here once a week and we love this place. The food is amazing, but today Spasa surprised us with the service. It was incredible. We'll love how she treated us. She's our favorite waitress because her service is wonderful and she's very attentive. We love how Spasa treats us.
