It’s my 3/4 th time back….They are just the best! I just need fresh steam crab and lobster and they can do it to perfection! The owner was so nice, he even got me a free soup and shrimps. Thank you again.

Rather to please. We ordered a boatload of food. One crab, one lobster roll, 4-piece raw oysters, 6 piece fried oysters w/fries. One of the raw oysters in our ordered smelled bad, we brought it up, they seemed remorseful, apologized profusely, and insisted on 4 more raw oysters, on them. After a few minutes, we changed our mind and asked them to get them. They said, no problem. They brought out 6 fried oyster! On the house! Their seasoned curly fries are excellent. After all that food for 2 people, we swing by on the way back to our hotel, we got another order of their succulent fried oysters. They're juicy and have an effervescent quality to them. We asked for the order with out fries that normally come with them. They doubled the oysters! Love these guys! They're a humorous group!

I had the 2 Item Combo for $20. Had shrimp and Calamari. Food was served up quick and hot. Food was good and they had a small seating area.

Tried The Crab Station at Fisherman’s Wharf. The quantity was good, but the overall quality wasn’t quite as high as some of the other seafood spots nearby. The clam chowder was a bit underwhelming — not as rich or flavorful as others in the area. However, the food came out quickly and the service was efficient, which is great if you’re short on time. Overall, a decent stop for a quick seafood bite while exploring the Wharf.

Fried combo with shrimp and calamari was okay—crispy and fresh, but not especially memorable. At $20 before tax, the portion felt small for the price. Feels like it’s mostly geared toward tourists. Might try somewhere else next time.

This was our second place to eat while visiting San Francisco.

The staff were lovely and the outdoor street dining was a lovely experience.

We ordered crab roll and an order of chowder. Both were good but the crab roll was a clear winner. Ask for extra lemon!

Crab Station #2 has the best Dungeness crab. Cooked perfectly and they crack shells. We had the fastest crab for only $55.

Amazing value and their homemade cocktail sauce is an unsung winner. I love fried clams. The crab station has a vast array of fresh seafood fried just right.

But the value! If you ask for no fries, they give you a very large basket over flowing with goodness!! The serving size is enough for two people, or one very hungry harbor seal.

I’ll definitely be back.

The lobster roll was cold, dry, and mostly imitation crab. Barely any real lobster and way overpriced. Definitely not worth ordering.

I ordered 1 fish and chips and 1 shrimp and chips. I was very disappointed. Fish and fries looked like it came out of a frozen package. Not coming again.
