Located in the H-mart shopping plaza, Crab House is located on the second floor above Kura Sushi. With a shared entryway, Crab House is to the right and Fish House is to the left. Likewise, the kitchen staff is also shared. Decor is minimalist with simple furnishings. Service was swift. After our order was ordered, complementary appetizers of black fungus, pickled turnip and roasted peanuts were placed on the table. Unfortunately the wait for our order of Crab Roe Dumplings and Crab Roe with Tofu over rice took some time. The explanation given was many of the chefs were off. This was a Tuesday afternoon. The Crab Roe with Tofu over rice was pure comfort food.....crabby, salty with frozen peas over a hefty serve of wet, sticky rice. Unfortunately, the dumplings arrived after we had slowly consumed the rice dish. The dumplings were ok. The pork overshadowed the crab roe and the accompanying sauce overpowered all. Overall, it was a positive experience and will return to try other items on their menu. Notes: * Hot tea is $3 read more

Got seated fairly quick on a Sunday evening. Food came out even quicker and freshly cooked/steaming. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the plaza read more

The steamed blue crab with rice noodles, enough for two. Surprised me as over my expectation. Also ordered wonton and rice; both went good. Environment is okay, not very attractive, but has big windows and enough space. Was about to give a 4.5, but there's no 4.5. May be an underrated~~ read more

12.04.24 @8:40 Walk in for table of 2. Got seated right away. Service is very friendly and polite. Came to try the crab roe rice. It was ok, will I crave for it again? No. Also tried Crab Roe & Peking Duck Pork Soup Buns. Not juicy at all and the bun skin are but dry. read more

Service was fast and quick. Went on a Thursday before 5pm. Food was nothing special, not somewhere I'd feel like I need to come back. I love crab but was left pretty disappointed. Found crab shell pieces within the crab and roe and overall felt underwhelmed. It was pretty pricey for the meal and I didn't think it was worth it. read more

Very good food, will definitely come back. Recommend the roce and noodle with crab roe

Food was very good. The crab dumplings were very good. The building is well kept and the tables were clean. The service was good. Recommend a lot. Lots of variety. read more

Good service! The food was great too! We had the spare rib, shrimp noodle, mapo tofu, and chicken popcorn. Two mango slush.

I don't know why this place has such bad reviews. I enjoyed the food here. I loved the crab roe rice. It's pricey but tasted exactly how I pictured it. The pan fried dumplings were sooooo juicy and flavorful. Probably some of the best dumplings I've had. We could've eaten multiple orders to be honest. The coconut shrimp and fries were just ok, quality was like something you'd get at a cheap buffet. read more

I love crab and couldn't wait to try this restaurant. When I arrived I parked in the plaza lot. I walked into a small, cute restaurant. I was served by Wein. I started with the iced lemon black tea, and that was good hust wish it was a little more sweet. For my appetizer, I got the crab cake, which was good! I also had the crab Roe over noodles, which was very tasty, and the crab roe soup buns, which I enjoyed! All the food was pretty good all in all! read more

Delicious! Food was very fresh / made to order and service was fast. Would recommend the crab rice and squirrel-shaped fried fish.

Seafood boil was sooo good, flavor was on point and everything tasted super fresh. Definitely coming back

This place is sooo good. The seafood boil was great price and the flavor is amazing. Love the mala sauce!!!

Try the viral crab roe rice. Did not disappoint! However if you don't like seafood this place might not be your favorite. Very crab/seafood focus read more

Great experience! Food and drinks were great. Servers were nice and atmosphere was pleasing.

Crab House at H Mart has really good seafood and lots of food choices. Fresh food, nice place, and worth going to if you are hungry.

My parents and I were walk-ins for a table of three, and we were seated very quickly. The waiter was very nice. He stopped us from ordering three dishes of similar flavors and suggested us on trying something else. We tried their crab over rice, crab over noodles, crab roe and pork pan-fried buns, and their crab roe and peking duck pork soup buns. For the crab over rice/noodles, they gave us a lot of crab roe. We ended up ordering more noodles to finish it. Out of everything we ordered, I would say my favorite was was soup buns. Everything else really did taste the same. The soup dumplings stood out the most in flavor. There was a sufficient amount of soup in each bun. read more

Entering 15min before opening on a Sunday the male host wouldn't address us for a good min bc he was too busy on TikTok. As a fellow business owner first impressions mean a lot it equates to profitability and if your employee who is being paid to greet and address your customers from a first point of contact is clearly not interested in doing a very simple yet rewarding job you should sit them thru training or hire someone who actually understands what he or she needs to do especially if your charging $32 for a crab over rice plate just a thought read more

The food was decent and the service was good. I ordered the Dan Dan noodles, Crab Roe, Spicy Beef, and Orange Fish. The Crab Roe over rice was tasty and savory. The noodles and spicy beef were at the right spice level and good flavor. The orange fish taste was good but I prefer it more crispy. The table was nice and comfortable which made the environment good. I would come back. read more

was craving some crabs without the mess or the heaviness of going to my usual seafood boil joint. i ordered the tofu and definitely regret not getting the original crab roe dish ! it is sumptuous and rich. i wish the roe was slightly undercooked but never experienced anything like this so unsure how its originally served. next time i would work out the noodle to sauce ratio better- theyre served separately which i appreciated very much. chicken wings were perfectly crispy and well seasoned! 4 pieces were definitely not enough. nanjing duck was served ... cold ? but has a distinct flavor of ginger which i absolutely loved. we ended up taking it home to conclude the dish at a different temperature this place is brand new as the extension of the plaza is a recent addition and it shows. its very clean and spacious. i did take notice how many people were dining given that they have no online presence. theyre not even mentioned on the festival plazas website. they were pretty busy for having very limited advertising. people mustve heard about this place via word of mouth? another thing ive noticed was that we were the only non chinese folks in the establishment. the waitresses preferred to speak in their native tongue. ok idk if this bit adds to the authenticity of the place, but they will not serve anything but water, tea and plum juice i will be returning ! read more

Small portions for the price even the napkins were the drink napkins you get at the bar and they only give one per person they need to at least double the portions of what they give read more

I have to admit I saw this business on social media and I had to try their crab roe over rice. It was $32 for a small bowl plus a medium bowl of rice. It was tasty enough. We also got the red snapper and a an order to san jeen bau with crab/ pork. I am glad I got to try and experience the crab roe rice but $32 for rice and sauce was too much. First and last time I will be back. Service was great though. The waitress was a one- woman show and she was able to handle all of her tables. Much kudos to her. Attentive and prompt. read more

I heard good things about this place before. However, I was very disappointed by the food and service. There is not slot of people dining in there anyway when we went in. Will not go back. Definitely not recommend. read more

I thought the noodles and rice were pretty good, and I would come back to try other items. I didn't care too much for the crab cakes. I didn't eat the crab buns, but the hubby and daughter thought they were tasty. read more

It's ok but really nothing that special. The place is a bit cavernous with a bit of a pop-up budget friendly decor in a shared space with another restaurant that's a fish stew oriented. If it's the same owner they may as well combine the place and menus rather than try to be too specialized in two different but similar concepts. Food is decent but nothing spectacular. We were drawn to the crab noodle/rice dishes which were the ones heavily publicized. The noodle base is well done but the crab sauce seemed to lack richness, flavor and body that we had hoped. Especially at a price point of $32+ per bowl which is a real premium. We also tried the xiaolongbaos which were also on the pricey side compared to those found elsewhere but didn't taste all too different. It was good but again nothing noteworthy or premium-oriented. Service was friendly and efficient although it wasn't super busy on a weekday lunchtime. Hopefully they broaden the menu but as a spot that touts its crab-based specialties and the price points they've set an expectation that wasn't met. read more

Bad food, overpriced, unprofessional, unsanitary....The baby shrimp dish that I ordered came with a hair on top. The dumpling noodle soup was THE worst food I have ever had from a restaurant, the chef doesn't know how to cook. Avoid this place! read more

I want this restaurant for the first time, it seems like only one waitress working, she was overwhelmed, we had wait for 45 minutes to order, than only one dish come after another 10 minutes, than she told us one of the dish was out...the rice was cold. I'm not planning go this restaurant in the future! read more

The first two times I ate at this place my experience was "OK". I decided to give them another try and today it was really bad. In fact I'll never go back again! My green tea tasted like dirty dishwater, they didn't bring out the normal radish, peanuts, or wood-ear mushrooms they serve before you order, no one checked on me or asked me if I needed anything. They brought my food out one at a time with 15 minutes in between. In fact, they pretended to not speak English when I asked questions, and then I remembered... the last time I was there I had a problem with something I ordered that looked completely different than the picture. I didn't touch it. I just didn't want it. I guess they remembered me and didn't want me to return again... Well it worked and I never will! And... I had to ask for the bill. A guy appeared with a device with 18% tip already highlighted. I couldn't believe after such terrible service they expected a tip!! read more

You can't call yourself a "crab house" unless you serve a whole crab. The experience will be predictably underwhelming.

If you're going for the food , it's great but consider getting take out. They were doing construction during the middle of lunch time with stuff flying everywhere. Floor was dirty and so was the bathroom. For a place that's somewhat newer this was highly disappointing considering we are visiting family from out of town and could not even have an enjoyable dining experience. read more

Walked by this place a few times while going to some other restaurants at the lower level. We planned to do the same today but long lines at the other places. So give this a try since it's not crowded. Turn out we are not disappointed. We tried the crab roe over noodles and crab roe yellow fish in rice soup. Both tasted really good. The crab roe was not fishy. We could taste the rich crab flavors. The noodles were good size. But the crab roe was quite a lot. For $32, it's not cheap but I think it's worth it. To be fair, you can't taste any crab in a lot of other places serving the crab roe dumplings for $12 or more. If you love crabs, you shouldn't be disappointed. The fish soup will be perfect in the winter time. While today is so hot, the rice fish soup turned out helps bring up the appetite. The free appetizer - dry fungus in sesame oil is very interesting and we liked it a lot. My wife almost can't help asking for a second one. We are happy making the switch to try this place. read more
