The batter is light and crisp and NOT soggy, uncooked, or greasy. His Coleslaw is fresh and creamy and he Panko shrimp are crisp and tasty. I brought home my extras to have the next day. The service is top notch with two neatly dressed servers who attended to me regularly. Also I noticed they were doing takeout at the same time. With ample parking outside, I also noticed they catered to people with mobility issues as there is ample room inside for walkers or wheelchairs. Two thumbs up. Located on the Trans Canada highway, first turn after the Ramada. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Our party ordered cod, red snapper and Ling cod. Every piece was cooked to perfection; meaty and tastey. The fries were hand cut and fried perfectly. They stress fresh oil and wild caught fish is used to prepare the orders. I will definetly be going back to Maggie's because the quality is equal or exceeds Red Fin Blue Fin in Victoria. There are about maybe 10 to 12 tables and counter seating. Not a fancy restuarant because after all, it is a seafood store. Maggie is very friendly and there is a self serve water station. You order at the till and the food is brought to your table. She totally gets a two thumbs up from me.

Lindy and Steve are absolutely amazing and Lindy is an absolute sweetheart , with her amazing smile and Steves nice too lol Sometimes we drop a table and eat in other times we just bring a blanket or sit on a park bench and do the takeout method . Either way I've never had a meal there that does not rank a 10 out of 10 then if you still got room, you grab an ice cream and then you go home and sit on the couch rubbing your full belly lol well that's what I do anyways.

I highly recommend this place as their fish is so fresh and delicious…read more Food is really good. Not too much batter on the chips and fish tastes nice and fresh. The fish was also not super greasy which will be easier on my stomach. The fish was also nice and crispy! The coleslaw tasted nice and fresh with a light vinaigrette dressing. I wish the coleslaw had a more creamy sauce. But if u like vinaigrette coleslaw, then u will love this coleslaw. They have a huge menu that i will have to explore sometime. Service was amazing. Super friendly staff and extra tartar sauce was no extra charge! Ambiance was nice and relaxing. There are a few outside benches to provide a nice camp feel. The benches were clean for the most part with maybe a few crumbs but majority of it was clean. Pricing is reasonable and definitely worth the quality. It was around $20-$30 a person I would rate the fish and chips 5/5 and the coleslaw a 3/5.

And while there are no shortage of seafood restaurants serving fresh crab on the Steveston waterfront, we wanted to give The Crab King a fair shake. I'm so glad that we did! My wife ordered a King Crab for herself which, after tearing it literally limb-from-limb, eventually declared it to be tied for her favorite boiled crab dish anywhere! High praise coming from such a consummate crustacean connoisseur! For myself and our son, an order of fish and chips, and the grilled chicken sandwich rounded out our order, both of which were crispy, tasty and delicious. Regarding the fish and chips, they appeared to be tempura-battered, and I'm still not 100% sure what type of fish it was. It may have been cod, but it seemed more like catfish, but either way, it was tender, juicy, flaky and delicious. No complaints here! More than anything, though, the employees here went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. Our toddler son, who is normally extremely well-behaved in restaurants, was having a bit of a fuss here and there. Without prompting, the servers brought us a little radio to play music for him, as well as a couple of toys to play with, one of them being a wind-up truck that they gave to him to take home! He loved it there, and still plays with it at home! They even played peek-a-boo with him from behind the counter, soliciting laughs and giggles, for the better part of 15 minutes! That sort of customer service is nearly impossible to find, and should be praised and cherished wherever it is found! Whatever the past may have held for this restaurant, the Crab King is an entirely new animal now, serving up fresh seafood by uncommonly wonderful employees, in a fantastic floating location. They even offer to cook spot prawns and other seafood purchased from the boats docked at the nearby waterfront marketplace, for a modest fee. With all these things going for it, there's no doubt who wears the crown of Crab King in Steveston Harbor!
