Alright, 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 Edness

This 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 Torres

Soulful 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.

Percy Holmes

Nothing 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 ????

Briana Wuagneux

So 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.

Devonta

Hands down the Crab Roll w/ warm garlic butter is the best! Soft. Seasoned. Delicious. $12

Byron Ward

Crab 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!

Mbali

The crab tacos are so so but I highly recommend the crab roll and cornbread ! The Chesapeake crab chips are also tasty.

Nikki

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!!

Nothing fried; they only steam and bake. So that delicious crab roll tastes like the beach , only without the heart-stopping grease! Win-win!

Crab Mac-n-Cheese is the way to go, you guys. ????

Garbage/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

Can’t go wrong with the Clobster Roll !
