The food wasn’t good seasoning and flavor wise at all. They didn’t communicate prices correctly, so they made me pay more for what I asked for. I’m not from here, so it was truly a disappointment to come here for the first time and be so digested. Wouldn’t suggest this to anyone!!!

First time at Boiling Crab and it was a great experience! Kari, our waitress, was amazing she explained everything to me and helped me pick the perfect order, which I really appreciated since it was my first time. The food was great, but honestly the French fries were the best part…. super crunchy, even better than Popeyes! Definitely coming back.

Food was excellent and drinks were tasty.
If you looking for spice, flavor and deliciousness then this is a great spot. Service was also wonderful and friendly.

Despite not having the blue crab at the moment, which was NOT their fault due to their supplier dropping out, it was sooooo good. I hadn't been to the East Coast in almost a decade and all I wanted was some fresh seafood... these guys gave me what I needed to call it a successful trip! One of the gals even gave me a step by step on cracking into my Dungeoness Crab because it was bigger than I had expected 🤣 so worth every penny!

Bring your appetite and, I would suggest, some clothes you don't mind getting a drop or two. Lots of food and quickly flowing to your table.

Outstanding Experience

This was my second time visiting the restaurant, and once again, I had a fantastic experience! From the moment we walked in, our server Amiya greeted us with a warm smile and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Her service was truly outstanding, friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. She offered great advice and suggestions from the menu, and everything we tried was absolutely delicious, from the food to the drinks.

Her dedication to making our visit enjoyable did not go unnoticed. Amiya is truly an asset to The Boiling Crab, and her exceptional customer service made our evening even more special.

I've already recommended this place to my family and friends, and I’ll continue to do so. Thank you for another wonderful visit. 10 out of 10!

You get “nickeled and dimed” for what other places include and the wait staff disinterested or perhaps over tasked.
