Those in a crabby mood in the USA these days, that is to say folks hungry for the aquatic crustacean delicacy at a bargain price, may want to head over to Captain D’s and grab a bib. The fast casual seafood restaurant chain is offering crab-centric meal deals at just $4.99 for a limited time through June 10.
Captain D’s Crab Lovers specials start with Seafood Stuffed Crab Shells, served with Batter Dipped Fish and Butterfly Shrimp. All of that comes with a choice of two side dishes and hush puppies.
There’s more in store, as a newly launched Grilled Crab Cakes meal is also on the bargain menu. It’s served on a bed of rice with a choice of two sides and a breadstick. A two-piece grilled crab cake appetizer is offered for $3.49.
“We know how much people love crab cakes, so our chefs created Captain D’s own recipe using Snow Crab seasoned with butter, onions and hints of garlic and peppers,” said Bob Kraut, chief marketing officer of the Nashville, Tennessee-headquartered company. “Just in time for some of everyone’s favorite gatherings like Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, and graduations, we’ve got delicious meals for everyone who loves crab.”
Additionally, Captain D’s is bringing back an all-time customer favorite – Fried Green Tomatoes served with D’s Dippin Sauce. And, to top it all off, Captain D’s new Key Lime Pie makes a sweet dessert choice.
