About Crab House

Crab House offers a beachy, casual atmosphere with a top-tier playlist. The food selection includes a variety of seafood, such as crab cakes, snow crab legs, shrimp, and the Lobster Roll. The portions may be small, but the quality is excellent. Many guests praise the outstanding service from the hostesses, servers, and management, with some mentioning staff like Lila who provided amazing service. The restaurant is very clean, including the bathroom, and provides a family-friendly environment. Popular menu items include the crab all you can 4-8, which is highly recommended, and the beer tower for cold drafts. Guests also enjoy the sweet corn clam chowder and the fun atmosphere, making it a favorite spot for summer visits and special occasions. Visitors from other places, like Pittsburgh, often find the crab cracking experience memorable, especially during all-you-can-eat crab meals. While some recent guests found the atmosphere louder and the menu more drink-focused, the restaurant still remains a good choice for seafood lovers. The crab Pretzel and Crab Louie salad, once favorites, have been scaled down or replaced, and some dishes may be drowning in butter, but overall, Crab House continues to be a lively, family-friendly spot with ample parking and wheelchair accessibility. Recent reviews highlight the food as awesome with quick service and decent-sized crabs, and the salmon cooked perfectly. Many guests enjoy the crab cake, finding it hard to find such good crab cakes elsewhere. However, some visitors were disappointed with the texture of the crabmeat, describing the crab cake as overly shredded, and felt the hush puppies and coleslaw lacked flavor. Despite these mixed reviews, Crab House remains a popular destination for good seafood, heavy and well-seasoned all-you-can-eat crabs, and attentive staff.

Tonight we dined at the Crab House and had Lila as our waitress. She was polite and we received amazing service! We will continue to dine here each summer during our vacation. The food was excellent! Especially the Lobster Roll!

we go to the crab house ever year for all you can eat crabs. crabs are always full and cooked perfectly. The service is always top notch. highly recommend

We tried the buffet. It’s really hard to find a seafood buffet in Rehoboth and this is the only buffet I could find so I was excited. Overall I was very pleased. The buffet had a great selection and some things were hit or miss (only 1-2 items) but overall I was pleased and would come back again for the buffet. Seafood bisque was delicious as well as the scallops and shrimp. All of the food was fresh and hot. I’m glad I stopped by.
