The Boiling Crab offers a flavorful and juicy seafood experience, making it a great option for enjoying seafood with family or friends. The restaurant serves a wide variety of seafood, including snowcrabs, crawfish, and mussels, which are often large in size. The menu features choices like the Sha Bang Bang Shrimp and the snow crab leg boil with corn, potatoes, and sausage. One popular dish is the catfish, which comes with French fries and offers a choice between Cajun or lemon pepper seasoning. The food is priced slightly higher due to the quality, but many customers find it well worth the cost.
The staff is welcoming and knowledgeable, providing great service, with some reviews highlighting attentive servers like Mia. The manager, Tyler, is noted for his friendliness and for checking in with guests. Overall, the restaurant is a great choice for seafood lovers, offering a delicious and memorable dining experience, although parking can be tricky as it is on the street. Additionally, it has just one spacious and hygienic unisex bathroom. The prices seem fair for the portion size and food quality, making The Boiling Crab a highly recommended spot for a satisfying meal.
