" I had dinner at Timbuktu last night for my birthday, and it couldn't have been better! The crab cake sandwich was outstanding, packed with crab and bursting with flavor. My friends had the seafood alfredo and the lobster tail, and they couldn't stop raving about them. The service was excellent, attentive, and cheerful. The ambiance feels familial, perfect for celebrations. I will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Timbuktu for the first time recently, and it was such a pleasant surprise! The crab cakes really are something special, meaty and flavorful. The waiter was exceptional, making sure our drinks were filled and that we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. It's a bit pricier than your average restaurant, but the quality of the food justified the cost. I will recommend it to all my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time at Timbuktu! My friends and I loved sharing all the seafood platters. The portion sizes are massive, we could hardly finish everything! The crab cakes are everything they've been made out to be. Authentic and delicious. Our server was very attentive but not too intrusive. The only downside was the noise level; it was a bit loud on a Friday night, but that didn't ruin our experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Finally made it to Timbuktu after hearing all the positive reviews! I loved my crab cakes, precisely as expected, full of crab without too many fillers. However, I did feel that the mashed potatoes on the side were a bit bland. The dining atmosphere was comfortable, though a bit crowded. Mishaps aside, I’d definitely visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try Timbuktu after hearing so much about their crab cakes. Let me tell you, they lived up to the hype! The crab cake was full of big pieces of lump crab and barely any filler. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere is really cozy, making it a great place for family dinners. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I must say that I was pretty disappointed with my visit to Timbuktu. Yes, the crab cakes were good, but I found them a bit overrated. The menu was nice, but the dishes lacked the authenticity I was expecting. Service was decent, but the wait for food was longer than anticipated. Maybe my expectations were too high! " (*Curated Review*)

" This is definitely a place to get your seafood fix! The crab cakes are wonderful, each bite a delightful blend of flavors. Staff was attentive, and the decor adds to that classic seafood restaurant vibe. The prices are reasonable considering the outstanding quality. I'm excited to return and try more of the menu!
