The restaurant is very lovely and I enjoyed my stay here! The only thing that disappointed me was the pasta. It was pretty bland and was not salty enough. The dungeness crab was very tasty and the clam chowder soup in the bread bowl was amazing as well. The view from our table of the ocean was beautiful and the atmosphere of the restaurant is lively and really neat! The bathrooms are kept clean and the floor are clean as well. Totally recommend this place for a date night or even with friends 🙂

Crab house is known for its garlic crab that’s served on a hot skillet at your table. Which is definitely a good option. If you get the chance I would also try the fried and the garlic noodles. The garlic noodles and the crab were my favorite.

This was an unforgettable experience. It was the weekend and the restaurant was extremely busy but we got seated at a reasonable time. Our waitress was wonderful. She was attentive and super nice. She provided excellent customer service. There was a comfortable, happy ambiance around the place. The food was top tier. We tried the famous crab chowder bread bowl and it was worth the hype, so good withlol chunks of crab meat on top. Highly recommend trying it. Actually, everything we tried were fresh and super tasty. Well seasoned. Seafood lovers, this is a must experience. The view was amazing, watched the sunset and the bay, depending where you’re seated. The experience surpassed my expectations. We will definitely be back when we return to the area.

Oh Yesss!!! Had to Go Back to My City to Geta Delicious Juicy Fresh Crab Sandwich. I had been craving one for some time and now I live in the North Valley. Every Crab Place Around Has Shrimp, Chicken, and Lobster Po Boy style sandwiches but No Crab. So, I waited until I visited my city where all the fresh seafood is abundant and enjoyed my delicious lunch with family at the Crab House. And it was my first time there and they did not disappoint. Everyone was pleased. Food, Service, Atmosphere all were On Point. Which Led To an Excellent 1st time dining experience…Thank You Crab House!!!

Luckily had reservations here as it was full and there was quite a wait by the time we left. We had a nice window seat and were able to open the window as the late afternoon sun was very warm so the breeze off the bay was refreshing and our waiter, who was amazing, thanked us for opening it.

If you want to enjoy a nice seafood meal, with great views over the harbour and seals, whilst enjoying the warmth of an open fire, then this is your place!

This place can definitely be recommended. We had lunch here, and when we left, there was already a line of people waiting to get inside. My mom and I shared the seafood combo and seafood pasta. Both were really good. Service was good and really fast, we waited maybe 15 mins at most for our food. After we were finished, the table was cleared immediately and wiped off for us. The food was expensive but that is to be expected for crab, also you can see the prices before going in. The only downside was the bathrooms. There were only two women’s restrooms, and there was a bit of a line to go.

Average. The beer was the highlight…which was disappointing. The sizzling seafood combo was over salted (complete fail). Small prawns, small mussels…the Dungeness crab was pretty much tasteless. I’ve had spider crab before (delish)….this was my first time trying Dungeness crab I was very disappointed. Yes, it’s Pier 39 which is an experience, but the service here is poor (we had to call for crab claw crushers and bibs) and I felt this was more crab by numbers.. than a seafood restaurant that actually respected the seafood.
