Dummy Crabby Opens Third Location In Tampa Palms & More 

The former location of Super Hot Asian & BBQ and Fushia Asian Bistro before that in the Shoppes at Amberly plaza in Tampa Palms is now the third location of Dummy Crabby, which has been a success in the Wesley Chapel Village Market since it opened a few months ago. 

Back in June, we told you about a new restaurant that opened in the Wesley Chapel Village Market on Bruce B. Downs (BBD) Blvd. at S.R. 54. 

That was the second location of Dummy Crabby, which has already developed a cult following of sorts for anyone who loves fresh seafood in those boil-in bags, especially the buy-one-pound-get-the-second-pound-for-free offer on snow crab legs. 

You get 1 lb. of snow crab free when you buy a lb. at the regular price of just $30.95. Dummy Crabby III also serves crisp sweet potato fries, ice cold beer & more. 

The original Dummy Crabby is located on W. Hillsborough Ave. in Tampa, but there is now a Dummy Crabby III, located in the space at 15317 Amberly Dr. previously occupied by Super Hot Asian & BBQ and by Fushia Asian Bistro before that in the Shoppes at Amberly plaza in Tampa Palms. 

Like the other links in this growing local chain, the newest Dummy Crabby also offers everything from clams, crawfish, scallops, black and green mussels, shrimp and even lobster tails and king crab legs in their seafood boils., all served with corn on the cob and potatoes. There also is a huge selection of lunch specials and combination meals, daily specials and raw and steamed oysters and wings. “Appetizers” include fried catfish, shrimp, scallops and oysters, three kinds of fries (French, Cajun and sweet potato), as well as a crab cake appetizer, mozzarella sticks and more. 

And, in addition to soft drinks, there’s also a variety of bottled beers offered. 

Dummy Crabby III is open every day from 11 a.m.-11 p.m. (until midnight on Thursdays). For more information, call (813) 447-4465 or visit DummyCrabby.com and tell them that the New Tampa Neighborhood News sent you!. 

Shake-A-Salad To Take Over For Island Fin Poké Co.? 

In other news, the owners of Shake-A-Salad, the popular salad eatery at the KRATE at The Grove container park in Wesley Chapel, have announced that they are reviewing a lease for the space at 6417 E. County Line Rd. (at BBD) that previously was occupied by Island Fin Poké Co., in the Winn-Dixie-anchored plaza. 

We mentioned before that a popular KRATE might be coming to the Island Fin space, but we couldn’t elaborate because it wasn’t a done deal or announced by the Shake-A-Salad owners (who also have a location on Little Rd. in New Port Richey)…until this recent Facebook post: 

“We would love to hear additional feedback from our neighbors in the Chapel and New Tampa, as well as from members of the LA Fitness next door on whether we would be welcomed in this area.”

Dummy Crabby Is Open, But The Price In The Neighborhood News Was Wrong!

PRICE CORRECTION FROM OUR DUMMY CRABBY STORY IN OUR JUNE 11 WESLEY CHAPEL ISSUE!

Silly name, but really fresh, tasty seafood. That’s how I can sum up the new Dummy Crabby II, which recently opened in the space previously occupied by Medilish Mediterranean (next to Fratelli’s Pizza Café) at 5325 Village Market (Bruce B Downs Blvd., south of S.R. 54).

Dummy Crabby, which is a much smaller restaurant than the similar Hungry Crab Juicy Seafood on BBD in New Tampa, also serves its clams, mussels, crawfish, shrimp, scallops, lobster tail and dungeness, king and snow crab legs in Seafood Boils, covered in a variety of spices and sauces, inside those boil-in-bags . I’m still not sure I understand why people love making already messy food even messier, but I will say that if you love truly delicious snow crab legs, get The Grand Opening special at Dummy Crabby. 

You’ll receive one lb. of snow crab free when you buy one lb. for what is still a super-low price of just $30.95! The amount mistakenly put in the June 11 edition of Wesley Chapel Neighborhood News was $19.95, but that is NOT the correct price and was due to a misunderstanding on MY part. All I can do is apologize to the owners and employees of Dummy Crabby and to any customers who saw the price and have visited Dummy Crabby anytime since the June 11 hit their mailboxes. Believe me, the snow crab is worth every bit of $30.95 per lb., much less that price for TWO lbs., so I hope anyone else who shows up thinking that the price is $19.95 will understand that the mistake was entirely mine and NOT the fault of the owners or employees of Dummy Crabby! 

And, as the co-owner Kevin promised, the crab legs are just so fresh & delicious! Like the original Dummy Crabby on W. Hillsborough Ave. in Tampa, the Wesley Chapel location also has a Special Noodle seafood dish, raw or steamed oysters, wings, beer and more.
