Crustacean Restaurant Reviews
Visited this place about a month ago while in Oakland. Went to San Fran because the person I visited raved about it. Awesome service the noodles were one of a kind and the crab was delicious!!!
The obeisance is no longer there meaning the lighting, chef outfits that all waiters and waitresses worn 25 years ago. No candles or flowers on the table. Now gratuity is included for two and not a large party. The cost was steep for two garlic crabs, two orders of noodles, one shared salad, one order of tiger prawns with noodles and two Cadillac Margaritas totaled $450.00; not to mention the elevator did not work and my disabled husband had to climb two flights of stairs....read full review
Absolutely outstanding seafood! Every dish was extremely fresh, perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The flavors were spot on and the service was excellent. Highly recommended!

Crustacean Restaurant, known for its delicious crab and garlic noodles, offers an impressive dining experience. While the food is not inexpensive, it is worth the cost. During restaurant week in San Francisco, diners can enjoy a variety of menu options, though tipping is discouraged. The roast crab and garlic noodles are must-tries, and the sea bass is also a popular choice. The interior may be a bit outdated, but the food makes up for it. The restaurant's crab is said to be as good as that of its sister restaurant, Thanh Long, without the need for a long journey. The garlic noodles are described as simple yet incredibly tasty, with some calling them one of a kind. The pepper garlic butter is also highly praised.
Awesome service and incredible food make this a standout spot, with many considering it the finest seafood meal of their lives. The manager exhibits consummate professionalism, and the staff provides prompt, friendly attention. Though it closes early, the restaurant has a mysterious charm that keeps guests coming back. The taste suits a variety of palates, and the crab remains delicious, just as raved about. Reservations are recommended for the best experience.
