I’ve tried this restaurant a couple of times so far. Raw foods, especially crab and shrimp, is not to everyone’s liking, and two people I was with only had the cooked foods as raw shellfish is a health risk for anyone who can’t take the risk (eg pregnant or with autoimmune deficiencies). I didn’t like the spicy crab, just too much spice/sauce overtaking the crab itself. I love the soy marinade though, it’s light yet flavorful. I am really getting accustomed to the texture of the raw crab so I intend to return again. I would love to try the salmon bowl. Staff is friendly and accommodating, I had to change the amount of people for my reservation once at arrival and they accommodated me without a huff or puff.

First time in New York and stumbled across this place. As a Korean, I found the soy and spicy crab to taste better than home. A really pleasant surprise!

Place itself is very nice! We got the soy marinated seafood platter and we loved it, came for the crab but ended up loving the shrimp! My boyfriend and I shared the platter and we were so full after our meal. I would def stop by again and try other items on the menu as well !

Went to Rice Thief for their raw marinated crab and ordered the half & half. I received two soy crabs, two spicy crabs, seaweed, and rice. This place did not disappoint! The food was delicious and the staff were very kind and attentive. I cannot wait to return to try out more items on the menu!

Truly one of my favorite restaurants with the best raw marinated crab. I also love their raw shrimp, abalone, basically all their seafood. Their stews are also really good, particularly the abalone congee. If you have a large enough party (and appetite) I recommend the seafood tower. They also give you gloves so you don’t get your hands dirty 🧤
