My son and I decided to try this because of the name! Once we found parking, it took awhile so be prepared, it was free parking though. We walked over, there was alot of people. We ordered fish and chips and shrimps and chips. We found a table to share, there were mariachis playing music live, food came out hot and very good. Fish was fresh and fries tasted good. Tables were clean, no problems with birds. We shared a small snow cone because it was huge, only $6. Definitely going back! We want to try the shrimp, potatoes and garlic bread platter!

Crusty Crab

We had read about the market here in San Pedro and had to come over from Long beach to try it out. Well the food is so so, apparently popular with the locals as it is packed as are most of the San Pedro Fish Markets, but it was not cheap, served on platters and paper, Messy without any redeeming taste. Not to mention very noisy

The price is reasonable, the service is good, the food is delicious, will come again.

I always enjoy going to Trani&#39;s for a meal. It&#39;s not just a meal. It&#39;s enjoying my limited time with family and friends that I don&#39;t see very often. It&#39;s an event!!! It&#39;s eating delicious food done right, then going around different tables to say hello and have a quick conversation and catch up with their lives. That porchetta dinner was so delicious and my pasta was aldente, the way I like it and eat it over in Italy. I always leave there feeling satisfied and loved. I&#39;ll be back very soon!!!

Each main dish tastes very good, the best thing is that the portion is super large enough to take home and enjoy another meal. Their Italian main dish is very special, and it would be better if seafood was added. The service was great and the environment was warm, they will move to a bigger environment (7 Pacific Avenue) in November, which will make Raffaello even better.

Very conveniently located next door to the USS Iowa, the Crusty Crab offers two options for dining. Indoors it is a non-descript casual cafe. Perhaps this is where the less satisfied customers have dined, or those feeling it too expensive. Outdoors diners eat huge shared seafood platters on picnic tables in a covered area overlooking the marina. There&#39;s a nice bar and sometimes strolling mariachis. It is all VERY casual, with everything served on styrofoam (the big negative), but it is fun. To do this, you must order the platters in the fish shop -- right where they are selling the fish on ice. We also ordered a plate of ceviche there to have while we waited. The platters include whichever seafood you choose, with grilled onions, peppers, tomatoes and big slabs of garlic bread. It is messy and tasty. One other option is to select a fish and have them grill it for you. Signs make diners aware that the outdoor seafood options can take up to 40 minutes when it is busy, but it is a nice place to sit and there are even arcade games nearby for the kids. Our food only took about 10. This is one of several adjoining restaurants.

I was pleasantly surprised. Service is not good, but food is good. Not fancy, but if you want good, simple fried seafood, this is it.?

Had lunch. Portions OK. Took a bit for food to arrive. Given 2pm on a Tuesday and only 1 other family in there. Swordfish I ordered took an extra 10 min after the rest of my family got there food. Was told they were cutting a new fish. It was fresh and cooked fine. Other family members had shrimp and tacos. All were good. Place is a bit run down as is the whole port. Too many loitering unpleasant people it seemed.
