This place is meh, we were excited to try the lobster roll after seeing it on TikTok. It really was not what I expected from my past experience of a lobster roll. I was looking for a warm buttery toasted bun lobster roll and got the complete opposite. Cold hard bread, shredded lobster mixed with a mayo tasting spread, not the greatest.

Food was not fresh. Got food here on Saturday. Got a crab sandwich. Me and my wife were excited for this sandwich and looked up reviews everywhere and picked this place. We are sea food people and love crab. It was not edible. We both took one bite and left it for the birds. Was a shame and a waste of food.

I dined here twice on the week of 8 - 14 January 2024. I'm no expert on seafood, but I enjoyed the crab sandwich and beer on Tuesday, and returned on Thursday for the lobster roll, and some raw oysters. Regrettably, one of the oysters was a bit off; I accept this as a risk with any raw seafood. For a SF tourist venue, the prices are reasonable, and there are a few non-seafood items on the menu, for picky eaters. The proprietors hale from Hong Kong, and friendly and engaging when they aren't too busy. I'd gladly return on a future visit to the area.Parking: It's Fisherman's Wharf; you should plan to arrive on foot.
Considering I’m from Maryland the food was good. Definitely needed some seasoning. The Dungeons Crab and shrimp was fresh but some seasoning needed. My wife had the Clam Chowder in Sourdough Bread Bowl. It was very good. My son had Corn Dogs and curly fries. He was content. Not enough seating. Only outdoor seating and it was 48 degrees out by the water. I wish I had gotten the Lobster Roll. Everyone was saying how good it was.
Best service around! Super friendly and the chowder was to die for!

This place speaks chinese. They give off street food vibes. The food is not very pricey. Calm chowder worth my money. If they heated up the lobster sandwich it would have been better.
As fresh as it gets when it comes to seafood. Right on fisherman’s wharf, so you can expect a crowd on weekends but during the week it was empty with a lot of curb side seating. $32 was more than reasonable for the loaded lobster roll I ordered. Really tasty and a great alternative to the same kind of sandwich you can get in many other places. The accept card but definitely appreciate cash.Wheelchair accessibility: Seating right on the sidewalk.

Was on a mission to get a lobster roll. Had decided to try one from here. It was tasty, but to my surprise I enjoyed the crab roll more.

Overall: 7.5/10 "The Crab Station" is definitely a perfect spot if you're in a need for something quick and delicious. I ordered the "Mix Item Combo" which came with (Jumbo Shrimp, Calamari and a side of Curly Fries, The food is definitely fresh and delicious, only down side I've encountered was that my food was on a bit heavy on the salt side. Aside from that there's plenty of other delicious options to try. When it comes to there service there very friendly to new comers. Just be aware that when you do come by, either try to come before or after lunch rush because it does get a bit hectic due to other connected restaurants. So plan accordingly.

Crab cocktail tasted ok, the "fresh" oysters was really tasteless ( worst fresh oyster i ever tasted). The probably washed them or something... When asked from where they Source them. They looked confused.....
