I had the roasted crab here and it completely blew me away. The crab was perfectly cooked—juicy, flavorful, and packed with that rich garlic-butter aroma. Especially, the serve the dungeness crab fresh!! I saw them caught the live crab out of the tank

I didn’t know I needed a crab-based spiritual awakening today, but The Toasted Crab really said, “Sit down, bestie. Let us show you.”
First of all, the crab was so fresh I’m pretty sure it had a LinkedIn profile earlier that morning. Absolute celebrity vibes 🦀✨
The seasoning? Perfect. Like the chef whispered secrets to the crab before cooking it. A nice, respectful farewell.
The staff were delightful—10/10 would trust them to watch my emotional support water bottle. And the hush puppies? I would write poetry about them. I would mail someone a letter describing them with a wax seal.
If you're considering going:
GO.
If you’re not considering going:
Now you are.
The Toasted Crab has replaced several people in my life. I have formed attachments.

I ordered spaghetti and meatballs and clam chowder. Spaghetti didn't taste like one, not even close. Had 2 bites and that was it. Chowder was ok though. The wife had the manila clams and it was not good either. Won't come back or recommend to anyone.

I went for dinner and to start the person that greeted me looked like they were in a bad mood. I ordered a vodka soda with lime and got a vodka tonic. I sent it back and the lime I got with my drink was rotten. I asked the server which of the sauces was the best one on the Cajun side. He suggested one and I ordered. They also don’t allow half legs and half shrimp. The sauce was a white sauce that looked like a gross gravy. They wouldn’t send it back. The sauce was disgustingly gross. I ordered king crab legs so it was not cheap. The limes were also rotten and they didn’t have lemons. Do not eat here!!!!

We came here to eat boiled seafood, when we got our food we realized that there was a sausage in there with seafood, we asked if that was pork or not and we were told that it was pork and we don’t eat pork because we are Muslims. Then manager Khang called the waiter and asked to talk to us, during the call he was so rude, that we were more disappointed in this place, we will never come again and we don’t suggest anyone to come here

I had such a great experience at The Roasted Crab in Santa Clara! 🦀
I ordered the Seafood Boil Combo #3, and it was packed with crab, shrimp, crawfish, potatoes, corn, and so much flavor—it really felt like a seafood feast in a bag. Everything was fresh, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly.
I also tried the Shark Tank Cocktail (refreshing and fun), the Cajun Fries (crispy and my favorite snack), Shrimp Garlic Noodles (so flavorful and garlicky), and a fresh salad with a generous portion. Everything paired so well together, and the portion sizes were really satisfying.

This place is a scam. Me and my coworker came here recently and spent $240 for a seafood boil with two crabs and it only came out with 4 crab legs. When we brought it up to the waitress she said she would talk to the cook and walked in the back door for 2 seconds and turned right around and said she would fix it. I literally saw her talk to nobody and she knew she got caught trying to scam us. Save yourself a headache just go somewhere else.

Regrettably, the recent dining experience proved unsatisfactory, representing a significant financial misstep. The initial cocktail, a mojito, was improperly prepared, consisting of soda water, lime, and mint. Water service was delayed until the meal's midpoint. The iced tea presented an unpleasant flavor profile. The noodle bowl, ordered by my daughter, utilized spaghetti instead of the expected noodles. The crab boil, served in a diminutive portion, was insufficient for two diners. The crab itself was undersized, and the accompanying portion of potato was inadequate. Considering the $145.00 expenditure, a more generous portion size and improved service were anticipated. Furthermore, we were required to clear our table, and the check's delivery was delayed by over thirty minutes. The restaurant's occupancy was minimal, with only one other patron present.
