Marc MayerMay 29, 2015Alright, listen. This is a temple to the simplistic beauty that is shellfish. It's juicy, perfectly presented goodness. Not to mention the friendliest crab spot in Brooklyn. No jerks allowed.
Rasheda EdnessFebruary 16, 2016This is my 3 time going and its was a nice amt of folks there. I enjoyed the tacos the most but my lobster roll was very good. The cornbread is too sweet, ol fashion cornbread is all I wanted
Josenny TorresApril 28, 2019Soulful seafood spot. The food is amazing. I recommend the crab tacos, crobster roll & 1/2 lb spicy steamed shrimp. So tasteful. Not good for crowds, since there aren’t many seats.
DevontaAugust 16, 2015Hands down the Crab Roll w/ warm garlic butter is the best! Soft. Seasoned. Delicious. $12
Briana WuagneuxNovember 22, 2014So friendly! Try the pear lemonade. The crab roll overflows with sweet, buttery goodness. Fun, creative sodas by Joia and Found are nice. Crab leg platter is also a treat.
MbaliApril 19, 2015The crab tacos are so so but I highly recommend the crab roll and cornbread! The Chesapeake crab chips are also tasty.
Byron WardSeptember 12, 2014Crab BLT with avocado is what dreams are made of. Gotta make sure you get the pound of Alaskan snow crab too. The legs are seasoned to perfection!
I usually get the snow crab platter, but the crab tacos, crab BLT, crab mac n cheese, and corn bread are not to be missed!!
Mara LecocqApril 5, 2015Awesome vibe, beautiful place, great simple food. Loved the garlic butter crab roll.
Jon Del RosarioJune 18, 2016This place is fantastic. Chill vibe and delicious food. Mac and cheese with or without crab is delicious.- UyennieMay 17, 2015crab blt: heck yes. corn bread: yums. crab taco: surprisingly delightful. crab roll: meh.
Yah-mari ColeFebruary 12, 2017The crab mac and cheese and cornbread keeps me coming back every time!
Bryan SwiftApril 13, 2019Basically everything is amazing. The honey corn bread is lovely. The crab mac & cheese is excellent.
Navneet AlangAugust 12, 2016Crab roll, chips and a beer is the ideal summer lunch. Staff/owners here are great too.
Jacklyn Grace LaceyJuly 24, 2014Fresh and tasty and full of extremely nice and enthusiastic staff. Welcome to the neighborhood, Crabby Shack!
Cole KennedyApril 24, 2015Nothing fried; they only steam and bake. So that delicious crab roll tastes like the beach, only without the heart-stopping grease! Win-win!
Kevin WilderApril 21, 2015So I just had the crab Mac and cheese, corn bread, and steamed potatoes. One word HEAVEN cool place in brookkyn
- Terri RJune 18, 2016Thoroughly enjoyed the crab roll, probably the best I've ever had. Definitely get the corn bread!
Sleepy BrowneFebruary 29, 2016The Crab roll and the lobster roll with the steam potatoes and lobster mac & cheese.
Jay BlessedDecember 20, 2014Visited for the first time last week and thoroughly enjoyed my 2 hour stay!!!
Jeff LagascaDecember 13, 2015Everything, Delicious with a capital D! Only want would for them offer Dungeness Crab.
Sasha МальчикJanuary 21, 2017Garbage/recycling sorting bins are farce and lie. All lined with black trash bags,so there's no recycling. Crab rolls are tasty, but amount of food for the price is quite small. Beer is way overpriced
Reuben DoetschMarch 19, 2017Amazing food and best customer service I have ever seen. Highly recommended!
Toi FreemanFebruary 3, 2018Love Love loved the food, the feel of the space and the staff was awesome as well!!
Michelle KNovember 8, 2014This my new favorite spot. The pound of crab legs with broccoli and corn was delicious!
Percy HolmesJune 25, 2015Nothing crabby about it, more like astoundingly good! The crab legs and Banana putting will make you slap your mama. I promise but don't actually slap your mama 😝
- Pat WorthyJuly 6, 2015Had the crab Mac n cheese, the worst, over cooked and dry. Crab cakes same thing, over cooked and dried out. Best thing was crab roll.
