Food was delicious and served promptly. The mango-pineapple cooler went well with the spicy crawfish. Mussles and oysters were fresh and tasy.

We had such a great time last time we went we decided to go again on a date night. We reserved a table for two at 4pm. They weren't ready for us until maybe 4:10 for cleaning. Our food came fairly quickly. The food tasted great like last time. I still prefer the medium than mild house sauce. It tasted better although very spicy. Problem we had this time was the crab. A lot of the meat was missing and it was mostly empty in the middle. Last time we finished the same amount and we were at just the right amount. If anything I got an extra cob of corn and it still wasn't enough food for us like last time. We don't eat too much so it's about the same portion every time. This is accurate and it sucked that it wasn't enough and we didn't feel right to order another crab. We still really like the restaurant but check your crab meat before the waiter/waitress leave. It was most likely less than two pounds since the meat was mostly gone... That kinda sucked for us and our date.

Not our kind of restaurant. We ordered some appetizers just to test the cooking; they were overly cooked and did not have much to speak of. We went there after they were open barely an hour, the waiter claimed that they ran out of lobsters. Hard to believe that they sold 20 lobsters in one hour.

My boyfriend and I went to Craw Station because I loved Crabs and he loves eating everything I did, he's not picky unless it's unhealthy. We got the house sauce, medium spicy Dungeness crab and the pepper lemon shrimp mild spicy. The sauce for the crab was amazing and it was so good but spicy that we were both sweating while we were eating!!! The shrimp tasted fresh and we liked having one spicier than the other so we could increase the spiciness whenever we wanted to, by dipping in the other sauce. Medium sized Crab was $36 (~2-2.25lb) that day, and shrimp was $16/ lb. They ran out of the regular $42 crabs. We also got corn $0.25 each and the sweet potato fries $5.95. Bill came to be around $70-$80. Worth the price. We even took the sauce home ;) The waiter and waitress were really friendly and didn't come to the table more often than necessary. We went on Sunday 07/04 at 6:30. The only thing was the chef. I believe he spoke Cantonese and was rude to his coworkers. He sounded like he's the boss and we felt bad for the people working there because we could hear him screaming and yelling in the kitchen while we ate and whenever we were walking to use the bathroom.

One of the worst dining experiences in my 43 year lifetime. Let's start with the service. My group of six sat down immediately. It was at least 10 mins before our server stopped by our table to take our drink orders. Then another 10 minutes to receive them. The restaurant was not terribly busy. We ordered the gumbo as a starter. Once it finally arrived, it was luke warm and the taste was almost inedible. Virtually no sausage, no chicken, no shrimp. Basically warm water with a horrible rue and celery and okra. I personally took three bites and discarded. We also ordered spicy Cajun wings as apps. The wings were completely dry with a small amount of dry rub on them. Edible, but not good. 4 of us ordered the crab for our entrees, one ordered crawfish and one ordered shrimp. The crab was not fresh and the gentleman who ordered shrimp became violently ill within an hour of leaving the restaurant. To top off the horrible meal and service, their credit card machine was down... How this restaurant received 4+ stars on open table is a mystery. We will never return. Just a bad all around experience.
