Once again hats off to the staff at King Crab. We were welcomed and quickly seated. Elvira P was an excellent and personal server who remembered us from our previous visit. Everything was delicious especially the Chocolate mousse cake. Can't wait until we are back in the area again for another meal at King Crab

I went for my birthday and the food/drinks were delicious. The waitress even put a candle in the green tea shot and sang happy birthday to me. This restaurant is great and I'll definitely be back

Came here for my birthday with my family (who can be tough critics) and everything was outstanding! Jon was the best server, so attentive and helpful and the food was so amazing. Everyone is already ready to come back! Had the best birthday, thank you.

I really enjoyed my experience. I was there for Chicago restaurant week and got mussels (appetizer), 1lb of Alaskan crab legs (entree), and a key lime pie (dessert) for $45. Drinks are about $10-13, decently strong. Servers are really nice, you can tell that there are people who work here out of passion for the place. There's a lot of good history to the place and it feels like somewhere that can stand the test of time.

Overall good but for as expensive king crab is and it's in their name, it's shouldn't come out with the shells soft and mushy.

Really good food I enjoyed the Norwegian salmon. The wait staff was impeccable and the atmosphere was very exciting and friendly. Great little bar up front

Thank you for allowing me to have such a big party!! The food was delicious everything I ordered was good I have nothing bad to say about the food. One of the waitresses was a little agitated It looked like she wasn't used to a party of 15 or more. One of the workers told us that we were able to go outside and smoke and where we could actually go. And once we started going out there they blocked it off. I was not happy with that at all. The pita bread chips and the cheesecake is to die for. Make sure you get that. Again the food was delicious!!!!! Looking forward to coming back.

The king crab are out of this world, our server, Daniel, was fantastic and made us feel relaxed and happy, and the atmosphere at King Crab House is is casual and easy! What a delicious evening out!
The crab, calamari, and oysters were all fresh and delicious. The filet mignon was not the best but it is a crab house and not a steak house. If you want good sea food I would recommend. The steak was above average. Would come back for seafood only.
This place was so small, the tables barely fit, it was not comfortable. No parking anywhere. The waitress disappeared for long lapses when we needed service. The crab legs were so skinny and bare, the dessert was frozen and they charge an automatic 18% tip. Not worth it. We did speak with the manager multiple times to let her know our dissatisfaction with the service and food, which is why she offered the free entree, but the food was not consumed and was taken away with the shells in the bowls.

This was our first time dining at this restaurant. We chose this restaurant for our date night in Chicago. The service was attentive, professional, and responsive. My fiancée really loved the water! It was very fresh! The food was as promised. The crab had great flavor. I do wish it would have stayed warmer longer. The steak was good as well. We would come back again when in the area!

All round very good, just little things that stopped me giving 5 stars. We had the basket. Shrimp were a little rubbery, and dining space between tables were quite close. Our table was against wall and seat was over a lip between service area and dining, so for just me was uneven, other side was fine.
