About The Boiling Crab

The Boiling Crab offers a unique and delicious seafood dining experience. Customers can enjoy a variety of seafood boils, including crawfish, crab legs, and Dungeness crab. The Cajun sauce is a popular choice, though some may find the Dungeness crab to have a strong scent. The restaurant also serves sides like lemon pepper fries and oysters. Customers appreciate the quick and friendly service, as well as the option to package leftovers. The hand washing station is a convenient touch, and the cozy seating area often results in minimal wait times.

The Whole Sha-Bang sauce is a highlight, with customers praising its awesome flavor. The restaurant's basic eating philosophy, where the food is delivered in clear plastic bags to the table and everything left on the table is tossed out, is appreciated by many. The waitstaff is described as extremely patient and knowledgeable, with multiple workers checking on customers throughout their meal. While the prices are high, as is common for crab places, the overall experience is considered worth every penny, with the seafood boils, especially the lobster combo, satisfying cravings. The friendly atmosphere and fun vibe make it a great spot to relax and enjoy a meal, whether indulging in a fried shrimp basket or a Dungeness Crab combo with garlic sauce.
