Very clean and nicely put together place! Immediately and the whole time we were there the man taking orders was friendly, silly and super helpful. Ended up finding out he was the owner. He was nothing less than amazing and a complete sweetheart. Now the food, price point is very fair, flavor is top notch! We tried 4 appetizers and would get them all again. Hush puppies, edamame(omg the flavor on these!) Calamari and the spring rolls. Then the main course, we got the $150 large family meal and combo A to include more shrimp and crab clusters. We mixed all 3 sauces and we were fully satisfied with out tasetbuds! Best crab broil hands down I've been to in the twin cities. We will be back! This place is a hidden gem and the owners energy matches their food, they take pride in what they serve and treated every customer the same. This place deserves all the recognition for a great dining experience and flavor.

This place has the best Cajun. I am from the south and this place brings me back. The crayfish are record keepers. Cheers to the chef!

We loved everything about our experience last night at The Luscious Crab! Our server was so kind and helpful. We are fresh seafood newbies, and he took the time to tell us how to most easily prep, open, and enjoy each item in our ginormous mound of awesome Cajun fruits de mer. We ordered the mild to start with and it had just the right amount of heat for us even through we're not the stereotypical "black pepper is spicy" types. It was worth every penny, and I highly recommend this wonderful place. We'll be back, and we'll most likely bring friends next time. Très Bon mes amis!Dietary restrictions: No food allergens are specified on the menu, but there was clearly no gluten, dairy, or soy in the sauce and spice on the platter of awesomeness. There may have been sugar in there somewhere, but I doubt it.

Don’t waste your time and money here, the food is not the best quality. I ordered the shrimp po-boy sandwich with cajun fries and it was VERY MID. Food came out piping hard which made it difficult to enjoy. As soon as I tasted a fry, I asked the owner “are these cajun fries!?” and he said yes. mind you the fries looked regular regular with ZERO seasoning, so that was a lie. After some time, the owner comes over and asks “everything OK, right?” ….If he was CONFIDENT in the food he was selling he would’ve asked in a different approach. Also, it was 6:00pm, and it was very empty, that should’ve been the first red flag from the jump, literally it was one other couple in there. In conclusion, you’d be better off else where.Parking: there is Parking outside of the restaurant on the main drag.

Was in town for the night and was looking for a seafood boil. Found this on Google and was quite shocked that all the reviews were five star so we had to check it out! This place did not disappoint!!! The food was so delicious from the garlic edamame to the chicken wings, the hush puppies and most importantly the delicious seafood boil. Combo A add Lobster is a winner.. Will definitely be back!
