Red Crab Juicy Seafood restaurant at 425 E. Eau Gallie Blvd. in Melbourne, is now permanently closed.
A sign posted on the restaurant’s door on July 24 read, “Electrical issues, closed today.”
Then, on Aug. 1, the company announced the Melbourne location’s closure in a Facebook post, stating: “Due to unfortunate circumstances, we have decided to close down our location here in Melbourne. We want to express our gratitude to those who supported our business and to those patrons who made this journey a wonderful experience. We hope that you can support our other Red Crab locations and once again we thank all our patrons.”
Where can I find other Red Crab Florida locations?
What started as a single seafood restaurant known for their crab boils, the company is now a multi-state chain operating in 14 states, with several Florida locations.
