Had a 45min wait on a busy Saturday night. But well worth it for an awesome pot of crabs ($30/pot enough for 2+ppl). Make sure your waiter gives you a pot of water to wash your hands!
A lovely time at CrabShack with great foods and service. I wouldn't recommend the pot of crabs ($30) because they are a lot of work for little reward. Go bigger crabs with larger legs.
Cajun fish a tad dry. But delicious clam chowder and fettuccine - use of wholesome seafood stock. Pair them with the house white and you won't go wrong. Great atmosphere.
Waited for 1.5hours for a table for 8.. And it's worth waiting...The two pots of 1kg Paddle Crab it's delicious.. ($50 a pot)
Everything. I particularly liked The Welly Burger but honestly everything I saw looked delicious. Very popular place.
They have 3 different types of crabs (Scottish Dungeness, Blue Swimmer and Jonah Crab Claws ) - each with different types of flesh
Awesome ambience, service and food. Crab pots and clams were very comforting. Delicious. Our new place to take visitors.
Be prepared for a wait / check if crab is available. A decent place for a casual chow. Prices are reasonable but check the printed menu - they differ from the online version. Kids eat free on Sundays!
The seafood here is decently priced and delicious and homely.
OMG! Even for a non vegetarian , the veggie burger is AMAZING! Layers of veggies instead of a mixture. You won't be disappointed.
Pretty good seafood options . Great location on the waterfront
Unfortunately no Nelson crab available but the prawn , calamari and cajun fish save the night..overall awesome dinner..burp! :)
Appetizers and fish sandwich were excellent. Great location with friendly staff .
Get the corn chip platter and ask for extra crab dip . It's the best.
1kg swimmers crab is a must!!
Amazing selection of crab and the service was outstanding!!
Decent seafood as a chained restaurant . Clams and tacos were ok
Deep-fried mac and cheese if you want to carbo-load!
Terrible beer selection . Excellent pots of shellfish .
Crab with Pale Ale
chicken wings !
Awesome better seafood . But not 1st date place !!!!!

The best Paella !
Great service - food a bit average :-(
Little bit of Montauk in Wellington :)
Not worth the wait. Many other better places around: foxglove, avida, arbitrageur, etc.
