Every single bite was delicious. Really. No shells in the crab cake-and it was not all stuffing but real crab picked out of shells, not from a can. It was also crispy instead of soggy, like everywhere else. Fried oysters were Perfect-not too done but perfectly crunchy. We kept the garlic lemon butter that was on the mussels & dipped crab legs in it (we would have bathed in it if allowed). Our server got a little flustered when a slew of customers came in but she rallied. Wonderful!!

King Crab House has become a favorite for us. The food is always on point, and the service is great. Not sure what took us so long to try here, but this is our fourth time in a year. Great Crab, excellently prepared steaks, good cocktails and quite a lot of food for what you pay. Be prepared to be full when you leave.

Always love coming to this place! They are warm and inviting and the food is great. Sadly, they didn't have my Dungeness crab this time. Hopefully they will, next time we go back! As always, thank you King Crab for your hospitality!

This was my first and last time eating at this restaurant. I had been searching for a great seafood restaurant with jumbo king crab legs and was so excited about this one that someone recommended me to try. I was told that it was expensive but well worth the price, so I trust this person's judgement and make a reservation. My son took me for my birth month and we were both very disappointed in the food. The lobster tails were kinda tough and the crab legs were dry. We were both super hungry because we were saving our appetite especially for this great meal, only to be left disappointed, dissatisfied and still hungry. We left without saying when asked how disappointed we really were because we didn't want to cause a scene in front of the customers. But I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. I would hope that the restaurant would try to make things right with us by offering a refund of some sort.

My husband‘s dish came out and a bug crawled right off his plate and onto our table. They replaced the food but other than that they didn't apologize or do anything to make it up to him. And they really didn't seem surprised about it.

Just a few blocks away from the bustle of downtown, King Crab House is worth the short commute from wherever you are in Chicago for a delicious offering of seafood! We had the King Crab Legs special and couldn't have been more happy with the choice. If you are in the area, King Crab House is a must visit!

This was our first time visiting. The food and drinks were delicious. Service was on point. One thing I noticed that they just need to clean up the ceilings and walls are a little bit. I did see some webs.

John was really attentive and very sweet. He suggested a few drinks and talked to us a bit as we enjoyed the music. We will defly be back!

Great spot to get high quality seafood at reasonable prices. The owners are very present and lovely and really care about their restaurant! And you can't go wrong with the jumbo Alaskan king crab legs. They are worth it!

We have driven out several times now to enjoy King Crab and the all you can eat Snow Crab. Both were fantastic and the service was excellent. Definitely worth the drive from the suburbs! Thank you!

My experience is always awesome here at King crab house. The people are always super kind and welcoming. Daniel remembers us and the food is always fresh and amazing! Most restaurants slack on seafood to be honest but here our food is always clean and delicious. I appreciate that! I love this place

Food was beyond our expectations. Definitely a hidden seafood gem in the city. I've seen this place for years and finally got around to visiting. Glad we did. We're definitely going back.

Service and drinks were good, the seafood boil flavor was bland, the shrimp and crab legs were overcooked.

Discriminatory against those who don't drink. Do not encourage restaurants that require you to drink alcohol to get a special.
