There are many exciting restaurants in the Greater Ft. Lauderdale and Hollywood area, but if you want seafood, particularly crabs, then the Rustic Inn is the place for you. This hotel favorite is located 3 miles (about 5 minutes) from the Hampton Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport North Hotel. Arrangements can be made with the hotel for complimentary shuttle service to and from this Ft. Lauderdale tradition.
The original Rustic Inn ™ Crabhouse began as a roadhouse saloon. As time went by, our hole-in- the-wall grew up, keeping with the demand for steamed crabs, linguini with homemade sauces and other popular dishes.
The World Famous Garlic Crabs ™ are known the world over. We invite you and your family to see what a legend is all about. Enjoy waterfront dining on our dock or in our main dining room. Visit our cocktail lounge and enjoy one of our original frozen drinks.
Dress casual, because you just might be cracking crabs on newspaper-covered tables using our wooden mallets. But don’t worry; wear one of our fashionable bibs. True- it is a little work to get the meat out, but the idea of eating crabs is to come to the Rustic Inn with family and friends, pick the crabs, eat, drink, and talk and have fun in a casual atmosphere. Sound like fun? It is!
Contact the Rustic Inn at 954-584-1637 or visit their website for a current menu and more. They are located at 4331 Ravenswood Road in Ft. Lauderdale, FL 33312.
