Crab House was such a great find! The food is super fresh and high quality, and they don’t skimp on seasoning at all. Everything is really flavorful. They have a huge variety of seafood and options, so there’s something for everyone. Where else can you find AYCE lobster? Definitely a must-try here. It’s buttery, savory, and so good. I also loved the spicy shrimp and crawfish with Chinese peppercorns. It’s the perfect mix of sweet and spicy. The oysters were fresh and delicious too. Service was amazing as well. Our waiter kept checking in on us and made sure we had everything we needed, even asking if we wanted more food. Overall, such a great experience. I’d definitely come back!

Google Review: We came here for dinner and it ended up being a really fun night. The seafood kept coming and everything was really fresh and delicious especially the crab legs. There’s a good variety so you’re not stuck eating the same thing the whole time. Some of the dishes are prepared right in front of you which adds a nice touch. Service was great — the staff stayed on top of refills and made sure we always had what we needed. The vibe is lively but not chaotic, so it’s easy to relax and enjoy the meal. Definitely a solid spot if you’re in the mood to go all in on seafood. Dine in on a Tuesday during your birthday month with a group of 4 or more adults, and your meal is completely free - even the day before or after your birthday! It’s a great place for a group dinner when everyone’s in the mood for seafood.

I came here recently for seafood and had an amazing experience! I tried the $125 AYCE buffet with lobster ($90 without lobster), and the amount of food I got could've fed a much bigger party. I felt almost full just after the appetizers alone because the portions are quite large. They have a lot of options to choose from but my personal favorites were definitely the seafood boil classics like crab legs, and I also recommend their lobsters and mac 'n cheese. Customer service was also great, the servers and manager himself made sure all your needs are met. I'm definitely adding this to my go-to list for seafood in NYC.
