Absolutely a great place to get a lobster roll or their signature clobster roll. Their seafood is tasty! Also — they have one of the best pina coladas I've ever had in Crown Heights (and probably in Brooklyn).

I’m so thankful to read these bad reviews and to think I was planning to order for my mothers birthday dinner from here, but after all these horrible reviews I would never step a foot in here or spend a dollar here. You want good seafood head over to Randazzo’s clam bar in Sheepshead Bay and if you want good soul food head over to Vera’s on Sutter ave. This place shouldn’t even be in business no more.

We went here for lunch/dinner. I had the major seafood dinner with scallops, shrimp and lobster. It was great.

Everything about this place was bomb. Customer service, vibe, music and food. I got invited here for a local dinner date and I enjoyed the mac and cheese, fried 🍤 shrimp and 🥦 broccoli. I did get to taste the 🍤 Shrimp & 🦀 Crab Combo which was very delicious. Everything was great, I was so indecisive due to the wide selection, however I will be returning for more‼️‼️‼️Don’t sleep on the beverages because they hit. I enjoyed the Froze and Pina Colada. Pina Colada was my fav. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'm from Boston, so I love a good lobster roll so I said let me give this place a try. They give very little lobster meat that was tough, overseasoned and on a hot dog bun for $37.02. No thank you

I know lobster rolls in NYC are always pricey, but what they serve here is tiny and still way overpriced. The portion was so small it felt more like a snack than a meal. On top of that, they make it more complicated than it needs to be — too many extras and gimmicks when all people want is a simple, well-prepared lobster roll that actually lets the lobster shine. I just don’t get the hype.
For what you’re paying, you expect quality and value, and neither was here.
If you want to try a real lobster roll in the city, maybe try Luke’s Lobster — the rolls there are straightforward, authentic, and actually taste like what a lobster roll should be. The Crabby Shack just doesn’t deliver. I won’t be back.

Keep getting text messages every week to support this place, so I decided to do it today but never again. I try using their website but I can't order the food bowl because I'm required to exclude one item for me to add the item.
So I ended up using Uber eats to place the order for pickup. Order the chicken bowl with extra shrimp.... I only get shrimp

Lady owned and operated for 11+ years. The food is incredible! If you want healthy options like fresh crab or shrimp bc you're doing a keto/gluten-free thing, or maybe you want a taco or some lobster Mac and cheese.... chowder.... a salad...or a lobster roll... or a lobster + crab roll.... or a chicken + rice bowl.... or a maybe you're just interested in their tasty frozen beverages.....there is something for you. They also have great hot sauce that you can buy. Can't recommend enough.
The food was good, but small portions for such high prices. A very small cupcake size Mac and cheese was $11(I wish I would have known how tiny it was before ordering). I also found a few shells in my Lobster/Crab Roll. It was not pleasant to bite into.

What happened to this place … it’s terrible waste of money . $50 for 5 shrimps and a peace of a cluster this is beyond disrespectful I will no longer spend a penny in this place no wonder it’s always empty . They raised the prices and made the orders smaller .

Delicious, the crab roll is really good. But I do wish they would use a real lobster roll bun and not a hot dog bun. Either way it was still fire. Mac and cheese was great too.
food was TERRILE .. i had hair in my macaroni
