All you can eat crabs in Keys or Miami Beach???

We have a large group of people who would like to eat at an all-you-can-eat crab house either near Miami Beach or anywhere in the Keys. Does something like this exist? Thank you.

I haven't seen one since the 1980s. Too cost prohibitive I imagine.

Just wanted to add, if you can find one, it will be cheap stringy crab. Your best bet is just purchase and cook crab yourself.

We have a kitchen so that is an option. Do you boil it? I've heard of people broiling it as well. I don't cook too much crab - I'm from Wisconsin - land of cheese and steaks.....

Are you looking for Stone Crab. It is not season for them. Joe's Stone Crab used to close when stone crab were not in season. They are open during the summer now but you have to content yourself with non-florida crab.

If this is for this summer, Florida lobster season will be here soon. LMF

Blue crabs may be available, at least they are in the central west coast of Florida.
GT, there is a restaurant in Ozella (between Homassassa and Crystal River) that still serves all-you-can-eat blue crab. "Pecks Old Port" has this available and they are great, and expensive.

I'd be interested any recommendations for a good, reasonably priced crab restaurant in Miami. We'll be there in late June and my son loves crab.
