The Best Crab Restaurants Near Me in Brooklyn, New York

"If you love lobster, this is the place to be. Everything was extremelyfresh. we especially enjoyed the salt and pepper, fried lobster and raw oysters. Everything else was at least eight out of 10. The flat iron steaks spicy blue crab was 9 out of 10. The service was outstanding. I’m glad I don’t live close to here because I’ll gain 100 pounds. Overall this was a wonderful experience. I’m glad that I came."

"Went here with friends and the host was really helpful. He was very accommodating and made sure we were comfortable and had enough room for our motorized chairs. Since we were new, he explained the contactless buffet and how the menu worked. He combined two tables and left garbage cans to throw our trash away which was nice. The food was hot and beyond delicious. Staff was attentive and food kept coming: Seafood, chicken, fish, steak, rice...just yummi. Even the water was good. Only thing missing was dessert, but since we were in Coney Island, we had options. Yes, the price tag was high but its worth it ($90 seafood, $135 to include lobster) with a 2 hr time limit (it's more than enough). Will definitely visit again. 😋❤️"

"I would like to say I loved everything about this place from the person at the front desk that gives you a great introduction to the place down to the servers that go above and beyond to make sure your experience was worth the trip and price. It’s a buffet style dining experience with price ranging from $90 per person to $120 per person. The menu was vastly superior to most restaurants and they offered a great variety of food options. The atmosphere was very relaxing. I’d say make sure to visit on an empty stomach."

"I recently visited The Crab House NYC, and overall, it was a mixed experience. The food was okay, but I found it highly overpriced for the quality. It seemed like everything was being cooked at the same temperature, which left some dishes well-prepared while others fell flat — definitely a hit or miss. They offer a birthday special, but note that you need to come with at least three other people in order to eat for free, which isn’t made very clear upfront. On the positive side, the servers were excellent — attentive, friendly, and really added to the experience. Unfortunately, the inconsistency in the food and the high prices made it hard to fully enjoy the meal."

"It’s so good! I love the service the waitress was so nice to us and really paid attention to my shrimp allergy and took precautions. The atmosphere is really good and everything was really clean. Definitely a good spot if you love seafood and are looking for a good lunch/dinner."

"The prices were affordable compared to other places for sure! The house blend was our favorite flavor and it was so good! The service was also very on point and they were very attentive but not overly so. Would definitely come again!"

"Got the shrimp po boy with Cajun fries and it was delicious and a great value meal! Definitely enough to feed too. I especially liked the Cajun fries! Looking forward to trying more on the menu"

"We did the seafood boil with sausage. It was phenomenal and it's SO MUCH FOOD. Going to add sausage and turn the leftovers into jambalaya tomorrow. We will definitely be back. It's a take-away place, but the food is not to be missed."

"Great service and fresh food. The cornbread was HANDS DOWN MY FAVE!! 10/10 recommend! They have something for everyone. Liquor and rum punch as a beverage option. The Roll is a HIT!! They make homemade sauce as well! The chipotle mayo should be made in a bottle to go!! Nice crunch to the crab cake! Tacos have a nice flavor! So delicious! They have daily specials! Clean bathroom, and seating area both inside and out!"

"I was really looking forward to having lobster roll in the neighborhood so I stopped in. Fist thing that threw me off is the outrageous increase in their pricing. The lobster roll was once $20 but is now $34!!!!! It’s not only the price of the lobster roll that went up but all their items…. by a lot. I purchased 3 items and the total was $88 The crab and lobster rolls were just ok. The bun was barely buttered and toasted. The crab grill cheese however was good and filling."

"Shaking Crab (Williamsburg) was EXCEPTIONAL! It’s really all you need to thoroughly enjoy a quality seafood boil. Great and I can’t stress this enough: GREAT service/staff presence! They check on you thoroughly throughout your meal. Drinks were GREAT! Food was GREAT! (We went with the ‘Regular’ heat level which was still just enough & flavorful. For all of the key things that matter in a great dining experience, they check them off. Would definitely come again!"

"I was planning to go eat at the restaurant but ended up didn't go because I was sick, so I order delivery instead. Food came on time but somehow it leaked so bad outside the bag. I got Twin Lobster Tails: for the price, I feel it a bit higher price than another Cajun restaurant, plus it is kind of small. Snow Crab Legs: is good but I expected the sauce to be more spicy than oily. Overall, the food is good. I wish I could go to eat at the restaurant. It would be better."

"Recently, I had a wonderful lunch with friends at Nick's Lobster House, a place with a rich history and unique charm. We enjoyed the freshest seafood and a cozy atmosphere on the outdoor terrace, which made the meal even more enjoyable. The service was top-notch — the staff were very attentive and welcoming. Having a photographer with us helped capture all the great moments. Everyone was happy, and I’m glad I made this day special for all of us. Some may say the prices are slightly above average, but the experience is definitely worth it. Thank you, my friends Khumoyun Akhmadjonov"

"This place is amazing!! Food was delicious, service was good, and atmosphere is perfect for date night! Lobster cream pasta was SO. GOOD. They give you so much lobster in there too. And the grilled octopus was hands down the best I’ve ever had. Couldn’t get enough of it!! It sucks there wasn’t that much :( I got the lobster tail pasta out of curiosity for their Valentine’s Day menu. It was ok. I do appreciate the whole lobster tail though. I honestly ended up just stealing from my boyfriend’s lobster cream instead 😅"

"Got the 2 seafoods shrimp head on/ snow crab and one free side being sausage. The fried calamari plate with lemon pepper fries. Ordered for pickup with getsauce.com at first I was sketchy but our order was completed fast and correct. My dad loves his seafood boil 😭 and I liked the calamari. It was a huge bag with potatoes and corn. The sauce was spicy and hot. 100 percent recommend my total came to $81 with charges for ordering for pick up. The seafood boil separately was $54. Good price."

"This place was amazing. Our server Paul I can't praise enough. He was so attentive and sweet. Made our first time a great experience. The food is definitely a 10 out 10. The shrimp basket was so good, drinks were tasty. The boil forget about it...... amazing. Thank you again to Paul our server for being so awesome. We will be back soon for sure."

"I came here to meet my party and there was no host. I went to the bar, and they were unaware of the reservation. I had to find out through my party. Once I was able to find my table, I noticed throughout my time there that a host never appeared to their stand. The server was not good. Although he had a pad, he still made mistakes. In addition, they ran out of mac & cheese, and there were no dessert available. The food was not good, bland, and overpriced. Plus, the drink was overpriced and served in small cups. I will not recommend nor attend this restaurant again. The ONLY good thing about the restaurant is the decor."

"Overall rating: 4.5 I’ve been two times for their happy hour. One of my friends is a regular & I don’t usually go out in the area, so it was a great new visit. I am absolutely obsessed with their mussels & curry. I wish I could buy a jar of that curry 🤤 The second time I went was about 2.5 weeks after. So I thought it was weird/ interesting that the second time I went, I had a 20% automatic gratuity to my bill bc the first time didn’t have it. Maybe I gave the impression that I wouldn’t tip? I’m not sure. But the first time I did, so overall confused. Maybe it’s because I’m quiet? Hm not sure. Will try again to see if I have a different experience. I really like the community. But maybe I’m too different."

"Nice breeze, free mini golf, but the food is mediocre at best. Mussels were not fresh, deviled eggs were the worst. Everything else was so so. We spent $240 total for 3 people (two adults, one kid). I will not be visiting again for the food. Maybe I'll stop by for drinks at night."

"My partner and I went here on Valentine’s Day and got the three-course prix fixe. The atmosphere was lively, the service was excellent, and I definitely want to come back in the summer season. There are multiple outdoor spaces and almost all the windows open fully. The cocktails and the food we had were great and overall nothing was too expensive."

"Cute little place.. BIG flavor!! I need to try everything on the menu.. the delicious Miso Ramen was just a start.. added the mussels for a little razzle dazzle 🤤 Went back again for the drunken Noodles... and it didn't disappoint! Was in the mood for fried fish... and got two chicken tenders as well... SO fresh so crispy!!! The Cajun fries are top tier...... So I went again! Finally got a seafood sauce option... not a 10! But not a 5 either 🤷🏾‍♂️ Let me tell you something... if you're not eating the Lemon Pepper Wings with the Garlic Butter Sauce... then your NOT EATINGG #ForkJab all thru this🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾"

"I ordered the snow crab legs and green mussels for delivery. They were still steaming hot when I got them. They are seasoned so well and had a lot of sauce. Delicious 10/10. I will order from there again. Edit: I ordered from there again and had the same exact thing because it was so good the first time. They do not disappoint! I wish I knew about this place sooner!"

"Try somewhere else…. Our very very first impression of this place was that it was very welcoming. The staff was friendly and restaurant looked good. It all went down hill after we ordered. Food didn’t take long to come out and It tasted good but then we realized 2 items we ordered were never delivered. We had to remind the waiter about it and then finally as we were finishing our whole feast, they delivered the last item. Mind you, we went on a week day maybe an hour after opening. It was not full. Only maybe 3 customers by the time we started eating the mail meal. We paid $6 extra for sausage but got literally 4 pieces of cut up sausage. It was roughly an inch thick. For 6 dollars we expected more than 4 individual inch thick cut pieces. It took so long to get the attention of our waiters after all that, one sat on their phone the entire time we were there, not very attentive. I don’t know. I just feel like the food and service doesn’t warrant the price. We left 20% tip per usual but don’t think we’ll come back. Staff was friendly and perhaps had it been a crowded Friday or weekend afternoon I could’ve understood. But it was not crowded at all. Just underwhelmed. Do not get the calamari. It’s not good. Seafood boil was ok but maybe make the trip out to flushing for a better experience."

"I tried this place for the first time last night and truly feasted! My friend and I shared the large size Royal Catch boil with snow crab, king crab, shrimp, corn and potatoes in the shaking spice. It was incredibly messy but they provide bibs and lots of extra napkins. We ate everything and all of it was delicious. The space is simple, there was no wait on a Friday night around 7:30pm, the servers were friendly and fast, and overall it was a great experience. I’ll definitely go back and try other menu items."
