Our hotel was near this restaurant and we were between Red Lobster or Blue Crab, we decided to try something new and went to Blue Crab. Service was terrible, our server after she served our food disappeared and the food was not appetizing at all. We were a group of 5 and neither of us enjoyed our food. Should've gone to Red Lobster instead. read more

I was very unhappy here. The customer service was not great at all. I cannot even blame the server . She had 10 tables by herself . The owner needs to hire more servers then one girl. She did what she could but didn't ask how the food was , etc... because she was rushed. The crab was subpar at most. The other issue was this place said they don't have the tools in order to open the crab legs. Aren't you a seafood place? Anyways, I will look elsewear when I want crab legs. read more

First time coming here and I am very disappointed. I ordered the combo number 2 and the crabs can hardly be called crabs more like toothpick. They pack the plate with so much sausage and so little shrimp very disappointed No wonder it's almost empty never coming here again read more

This place is amazing! The food was really flavorful. The fried shrimp were crispy and hot and they were a really good size. The peel and eat cajun were big enough to get three bites. The wait staff was awesome!! Going back again and again. Very clean Restrooms too!! read more

Blue Crab - Seafood Near Me - Irving, Texas

Really good service. We got the raw oysters, calamari, and crab puffs. Raw oysters were good, horseradish was spicy just like you'd want it to be with raw oysters. Calamari wasn't the best I've had, but not inedible. Crab puffs were made with the parts of the crab that aren't included with the crab legs, like the body and smaller legs, but were still good. read more

They're food was okay but the service sucks. The managers also yell at their employees in front of everyone so that is uncomfortable. Their gumbo soup was not fresh. I will not be coming back here. read more

Blue Crab - Gumbo Soup - Seafood Near Me - Irving, Texas

My experience at Blue Crab was very pleasant. They provide very friendly service and very tasty food! I really loved the lemon pepper flavored combo which has crab legs, lobster tails and shrimp! I also had a couple of cocktails and spent less than $50 in everything. read more

its was so nasty and the potatoes were cold in the middle the food took forever to come out it had no flavor it had a strong fishy sour odor and the crab legs were rubbery and the sausages tasted like they had been sitting out for days and the corn was so overcooked I do not recommend going there. read more

reading reviews was hesitant..one person may not like it others do..I'm other's and like it..want an order with King Crab they have been out..this is one of my Thursday outings..btw it's not crowded..a lil busy but not crowded read more

Blue Crab - Combo A - Seafood Near Me - Irving, Texas

I got a pound of Cajun mild snow crab legs. Crabs weren't fresh and didn't taste good.. probably should've ordered spicier but idk if that would have helped. The quality of the crab just wasn't very nice for the price. read more

We decided to try this place out because it was near our hotel. Super clean place, cute decor, and food was good! Came out super quickly also. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. I'd definitely come back again! read more

It was ok. The appetizers were not all that good, jalapeño poppers, were not that tasty. The king crab was very good, well seasoned and the corn and potatoes were very tasty. The service was good, waitress seemed new, but did a good job. Overall was disappointed with drinks and appetizers, probably will not be back. read more

Overpriced, small portions, music too loud, waitress inaudible. It makes Red Lobster look like inexpensive fast food.

It was just ok, we ordered 2lbs of crawfish, and neither really had the garlic butter flavor or Cajun flavors, just a fishy taste. Service was great!! read more

Picked this place on a whim. The inside is cute. The waitress was good. We were seated right by another table of people, and that was disappointing because there is a lot of space here. In the time of Covid, I'm not crazy about being stacked up on other people. The shrimp cocktail is boiled shrimp and some sort of pepper sauce (Tabasco, I believe). Not really what I look for in a shrimp cocktail. The shrimp dim sum was good, and the sauce with it was much better than the "cocktail sauce." Our table had Szechuan shrimp, which we enjoyed. Also the shrimp soup (can't remember the name) which was completely awful. Shrimp boil water, some oil, and some rice. Definitely a hard pass if we come here again. I'm not seeing any table cleaning, just a changing of the paper liner table cover between customers. So, not impressed with this place, and not likely to come back. read more

DO NOT GO HERE...WASTE OF MONEY!!! Went in for crawfish, absolute garbage. No flavor, and I mean like zero flavor there was like a weird gravy crawfish mix and never get had anything but it was so crap that I couldn't even finish it. I hate to complain but literally a waste of money and time.the waitress never came to check on us to see how the food was and then at the end when she said how was everything you told her how bad it was and everything no manager know owner nobody came to talk to us she told no one about it nothing. Maybe other things on the menu are good I don't know but absolutely don't get crawfish at this place. atmosphere is great beer with reasonably priced food TRASH it so if you just want to come drink it's probably an option. read more

THE WORST place I've ever dined at in entire state of Texas!!! The wine is watered down, draft beer, and condiments too. Their fried shrimp appetizer was probably purchased at their neighboring Walmart store in the frozen food section. Since I must rate this place in order to give a review, I will attribute the single star for the restaurant decor. Nevertheless, This place receives a big fat F for the cusine. My recommendation - If you are looking for this type of Cajun Seafood and combos, go to the hundreds of other restaurants that serve quality food and good service. read more

The food was sooooo good I really enjoyed it. We thought that we was not going to get full but we did

I ordered combo B through Uber eats, instead of the 1lb crab legs I was supposed to get, I received 1 SMALL cluster. I paid $50 for a tiny cluster. Unacceptable. Don't order from here if you don't want to be disappointed read more

PSA: Save your money, eat anywhere else but here. For a place that claims their principles are Quality, Service and Ambiance they lack all 3. The fried oysters where mushy and greasy. The crawfish had a distinct freezer burn taste. This place is over priced, the staff clearly doesn't care about your dining experience and made my group feel like we were a bother. Sorry we asked for drink refills to wash away the taste of our lackluster dishes. The restaurant table was sticky and smelled like it had been wiped by a dirty dish towel. I went to the bar to ask for a drink since the server didn't check on our table often but I ended up passing on ordering a drink when I noticed fruit flies. Really grossed me out. Needless to say we will not be back and suggest you look for a better dining option. read more

Poor services. Went in and got drinks and she walked off. Took an order to go then went in the kitchen yet we still hadn't gotten to order. She came back finally while the other girl did nothing. No one in dining but me and my 13 yr old. Food came out fast. Too fast it was undercooked And food was terrible. My daughter didn't like and I ordered to b-boil undercooked crab barely cooked sausage and the shrimp seemed ok. But...Gross and seasoning was disgusting with sweet Chile sauce when I wanted hot n spicy. And they argued it was Cajun. No way in hell... Cajun is my favorite!!!Will NEVER be back!! Just terrible all around. She argued that it's hard w Covid virus but food poisoning is worse. We ate pretty much nothing but water and kiddo had part of the rice. They tried to discount of 10% and I laughed. Said meals still on the table. Then 20%. Still laughing. Told other to go customers with to beware...they made me pay for a few bites of rice my daughter ate and her soda 6.22 in the end. No tip I will ban that place in my list of decent eats. Never again!!! read more

Me and daughter went today 10/15/2019 for lunch.. My daughter had the fried calamari and fries and I had the friend shrimp with fries... It was amazing! The service was great! The music was great and Joey ( the owner ) Is so nice .. My daughter has went to eat here when it first opened she remember her.... That's another plus in my eyes.. What a nice lady with great food and wonder atmosphere.... I will be back... Great job.. read more

1 beer and one of their less expensive meals costed $45. I don't know what to say about the service except that the waitress only said about 20 words to me at most. Their seafood comes in like a blown up bag, it's weird. The king crab legs had hardly any meat in them which is abnormal and must have something to do with how it is prepared. Their meals are more expensive than a high end seafood restaurant yet their quality is on par with Long John Silvers. This place is just plain bad. Pissed I wasted my money there tonight. read more

The manger really should take some ethics classes. I just don't think she should be in authority at such an establishment. Perhaps 'Dick's Resort' suits her better! Went here for a family gather yesterday and the atmosphere felt so un-welcoming. Happy hour was cool and the food was fresh...but un-personable service defeats all that! When I spend over $100 at a restaurant I want to be treated like a person not a rushed, Unappreciated customer! Blue crab on Airport Freeway in Irving Texas please throw the manager/management away...or keep losing business! read more

Service was good .. fry shrimp under cook but the did a good job on the redo... raw oyster very good and the stuff Jalapeños good... why the low rating was Seafood should never be served on styrofoam plastic plates and bowls....if I wanted to eat out of styrofoam plates and bowls .. I just walk to McDonald's for a fish sandwich and save $$$$ read more

Omg the best seafood I've had in a long time. I had snow crab and black mussels. The crab was very filling and full of good meat. Seasoning was perfect. I like to mix Cajun and garlic butter together. It was so good I went back the next day and had shrimp and snow crab.... oh it was even better the second time. If you love seafood I would recommend that you go and try this place. And drinks are good as well!! read more

Great place I love shell shack and this was just like it but not so far from my home in Irving and no wait ! The staff seem family orientated and what a better business to support. Staff were so sweet and our food was AMAZING ! Don't understand the bad reviews I'll be coming back aloooot ! read more

Should of stuck to my favorite crab place down the street. Ordered the king crab and looked pretty small from what I'm used to also shrimp was over cooked. Potatoes were over cooked and mushy. "Outstanding sea food" far from it. "Highest standards" I think not. read more

Contrary to previous reviews, we asked the locals and they recommend this place to us so we tried it, twice! The first night we had the Crab with spices, the second time without, just tell them how you want it! Great place, Crab is Great, The whole restaurant has great atmosphere and is very clean! Everything we are looking for from out of towners! read more

Ordered through Uber Eats and was disappointed. "Ten pieces" of fish turned out to be 2. The food tasted decent besides the small portion. read more

Don't bother wasting your money. You order one thing and get something totally different. After waiting over 30 minutes for our food. We ordered Szechuan chicken. Not sure what the heck we got, our food had an odd flavor and smell , chicken was rubbery. They say "kid friendly " but don't have a kid menu. They tell you to order there (kids) food off the appetizer section. Took 20 minutes to get my sons chicken tenders which I'm sure they got from Walmart next door. Then refried them. We couldn't hear what our waitress was saying (A) music was loud, and she was soft spoken on top of her wearing her mask. They sat us behind a pillar and kinda forgot about us. Definitely wont recommend going here. Save yourself the time and headache. read more

Delicious food, great service, awesome prices! We love coming here for our once a month treat. Thank you Blue Crab!

Excellent eating experience. From walking in the door, being greeted by employee and seated. Order was taken and it was served in next 5 minute. It was really quick. It was hot and excellent in taste. Server was very friendly and helpful. Will definitely comeback again. read more

Very disappointing in the food!! Ordered calamari, shrimp, and crab. None of it was "delicious". The place looks great the people are nice but the food is what you pay for and it's not worth what they charge. If you are wanting seafood, stick to a place that knows how to cook seafood! That's my suggestion I know I will. read more

This place was so amazing. Great staff. Music was just on point. Food was great. Nothing was under or over cooked. Will definitely be going back! Wish i got a picture of the food but it was just so good i couldn't wait. Would definitely recommend. Also there hot isn't so hot apparently. read more

Terrible don't waste your money food had no flavor and it seemed like it was sitting for awhile then that heated it up and dumped a bunch of season on it. Also don't order a appetizer you'll get it after your meal. read more

Flavors for the seafood combos were great but not worth the price. Didn't get my moneys worth for the "lb" of crab legs.

This place is a joke. I placed an order for 1Lb of Blue Crab, which is the whole crab corn and potato. When I get there I pick up my food I open the bag to inspect it and noticed that it's not whole crab. I asked them about it and they said "Yes we already peeled it for you." which I thought was strange. When I get home I eat the 1potato and 1corn first which I always do. Then I pull the crab out into a pan to eat. That's when I discovered these unprofessional, idiotic people put gumbo crabs in my bag and charged me $16 for 3 gumbo crabs!!!!!! I tried two and the meat was completely mushy because gumbo crabs are meant to flavor food NOT to be served as whole Blue crab. When I called the restaurant the manager said that it is not blue crab season so they sell the the already cleaned gumbo crab instead. (If it's not Blue Crab season Do Not Offer Blue Crab!!!!!). She tells me she can give me a 20% off discount off of my next purchase for selling me crab that is meant to season food!!!!! I will never in my life patronize this "establishment" again nor recommend it!!!!!!!!!! read more

We had the best time coming here our server and bartender was absolutely amazing the food came out in 7 minutes and was perfectly seasoned! Thank you for an amazing experience! We will definitely be back! read more

There were rude to me and the food was terrible some area I the restaurant was not clean
