Calamari with sweet and sour sauce dip
Nyla K.

We stopped in for some drinks and a bite before heading to the Sounders game. We got seated pretty quickly towards the back near the booths. The service was a bit on the slow side but I suppose that's fair since there was a game. But there were plenty of empty tables around. 1/5 Calamari - arrived cold 1/5 Fries - arrived cold 4/5 Clam chowder - pretty good 4/5 Artichoke dip - served in a bread bowl with tortilla chips and tasted nice As we were finishing up we asked for the bill and one more beer and the wait was so long that I decided to go up and tell the waitress to cancel the beer. The waitress finally came back and we paid the bill but asked for the itemized receipt to confirm the beer was taken off. It was not, and the waitress knew it wasn't because she quickly left the table and never came back. Sure it was only a $6 beer but it really seemed like she did this on purpose. I would not recommend going again.

I was there last year and I think I forgot to leave a review, but Theresa was so amazing and personable that it popped into my head and I'll do it now. The food was great, but the service and personability of the staff was just phenomenal, and special shout out to Theresa. I wonder if you went back to Palm Springs. Anyway my date and I had a lovely time.

King crab and shrimp boil - while it photographed well, it was a huge disappointment with the lack of flavor and dry rubbery texture.
Carla C.

Absolute disappointment in the lackluster quality of food. We had a King crab and shrimp boil, which was dry and rubbery. Shrimp filled avocado- had tiny little frozen flavorless shrimp. So disappointing. Waited for salt and pepper which we never received, but at least it photographed well. We will not bother giving a second try. We should have known by the lack of line while other restaurants had over hour and a half wait. Not worth the money.

The Mafia Queen Royal Boil
Tiffany K.

What we ordered: The Queen's Mafia Royal Boil Spinach Artichoke Dip Cajun Fries Raw Oysters First off, the food was good. Service was below average. We had to stop a waiter to get his attention, assuming he was our waiter..we were ready to order after waiting for 15 mins and it even took awhile to get waters to our table. All in all, we were tourists just passing thru.

Lobster roll with Cajun fries
Deb C.

Great atmosphere since there's hardly no one here! Ordered an old fashioned with Four Roses bourbon. Not quite sure what all is in this! Ended up getting an additional shot of Four Roses and adding it to the glass. Much better. Ordered the lobster rolls with Cajun fries. Fries are great. The ratio of lobster salad to bun is about 1:4 which is unfortunate for the price. Overall, okay. Has the potential to be great.

Delicious!
Lynn D.

Nice find, friendly staff yummy seafood we enjoyed all of it! My husband and I enjoyed the variety of seafood on the Mafia platter.

Unfortunately, I only stopped in for a cup of the chowder and was I lucky to stumble upon Sea Crab House. Michael was excellent, the chowder was excellent and the atmosphere was pleasant. Michael took our order and provided very efficient service. I would have loved to try one of their seafood boils.

Crab boil for two!
Beverley C.

There weren't that many reviews for this business so we went hoping for the best, and gladly we were not disappointed! The service was prompt and friendly. Our server (Kenny) was thoughtful in his recommendations and suggestions. We shared a crab boil (with Dungeness crab, shrimp, corn, and potatoes) with their signature SEA sauce. The boil was delicious! Only reason I didn't give five stars is that a few menu items weren't available and the cocktail was a little on the sweet side. Overall this was a good experience and we'd definitely come back!

Whole Maine lobster and king crab

I'm here for my birthday dinner tonight! Everything was amazing! Michael the bartender took care of us and gave us a great menu tour and origin of the restaurant story and concept. We ordered the boil with king crab and lobster. Just wow the lobster was huge and delicious especially given being in Pacific Northwest. Ambiance/atmosphere is amazing. P.s service from Michael and his coworker with Hawaiian shirt were great! FYI I do work in restaurant industry and I'm very impressed with everything here especially given they just opened for soft opening.

Lobster, Shrimp, Muscles! Sauce on the left: the Cream Cajun & Right: The Sea Spicy..

Food was just amazing! Try this: Order different dipping sauces on the side and mix it up. Service was great! The server was there when needed and was very helpful. His name was Smooth River. Ambiance is perfect for such a meal. I am taking the fam there next.

Sad fish and chips (frozen?)

I loved: Geoduck Sashimi…read more I really liked: Dungeness Crab Shuckers Dozen The seafood here is really #goodeats, especially if you enjoy fresh, clean flavors. The oysters are excellent, with a very smooth texture and a nice flavor that doesn't need much else. The geoduck sashimi is easily the highlight of the meal. Incredibly fresh, with a great texture and natural sweetness. The Dungeness crab is also pretty solid. The legs come pre-cracked, making everything much easier to eat, and the sauce is conveniently served right in the shell. The service here is great, the staff are very friendly and attentive. I especially appreciate the little details, like having the crab legs pre-cracked and bringing out hot towels after the meal. It makes the whole experience feel a little more thoughtful. The restaurant itself is pretty small, but it's clean, comfortable, and conveniently located near the Seattle Convention Center. It's a nice little spot to stop by for some quality seafood without anything feeling overly fancy. Overall, a great experience, and I'd definitely come back for the geoduck sashimi.

What a wonderfully delicious place! The seafood was so clean, fresh and sweet…read more Past experience with geoduck was very tough and rubbery. This geoduck sashimi was so tender and snappy, similar to raw scallops. Their own farmed oysters were spectacular. I tried each of the varieties to taste the differences. Briny, creamy, melony, citrusy. All amazing but I have to say that the Fat Bastard and Shigoku varieties were my favorite. The dungeness crab is a whole crab that is cracked for you and comes with this incredible dipping sauce made from the crab fat (it's so rich and yummy that I wish I had some bread to sop it up). There are quite a few locations in the city and I would highly recommend treating yourself to some of the bet seafood around.

We had a really good meal at Duke's on South Lake Union. We got the crab cake burger, salmon bites,…read morechowder and some cocktails, but the coconut shrimp was definitely the highlight for me. Everything was really good and there was a nice variety of things to order. We sat outside on the dock and the seating was probably my favorite part of the whole experience. Being right on the water with the boats and Lake Union around you made it such a fun Seattle dining experience. The staff was nice and the service was good too. Definitely recommend sitting outside if the weather is nice because the view really makes it worth it.

Came at 430 on a Wednesday and didn't have reservations. They were busy, but able to seat us (party…read moreof 5) within 5 minutes. They told us they had a party coming in at 6 so we needed to leave by then. No one kicked us out, but we left on our own at 10 after 6. Unless they were using the middle area our table was in for the large party, they were seating people around us at smaller tables. Overall service was pretty quick. Server was pleasant and attentive. We had to ask for the happy hour menu in the dining area. Server didn't automatically offer it so was a little surprised. I don't think they have a bar so how else are you supposed get happy hour prices?! Got the house white wine and the chicken tenders. The chicken came with a side of ranch and mustard as sauces as well as some coleslaw. It's a fish place so can't be that upset on chicken taste, but some bites were on the meatier end than others, which weren't ideal. Based on that alone not impressed. Can't speak to anything else unfortunately. Varied menu (though pricey). Self pay parking lot.

we stayed at the Palladium, which is the hotel attached to this restaurant, & they offer breakfast…read morevouchers for the chase sapphire reserve for part of their amenities- which gave us plenty of meals through shaker + spear. every morning we were so grateful to have delicious, well done breakfast to get our day started! every entrée that we had was really good, solid breakfast food that included coffee & juice. We had a mix of classic breakfast foods like omelettes, french toast and benedict- but our personal fave was the salmon benedict as well as the banana foster french toast!! I have to say, the food was pretty good- nothing super out of the ordinary, but the service is what blew us away. The wait staff was extremely professional, prompt & friendly. Our favorite server was Alexis, he made every breakfast feel like we were having one at home with a friend. The manager, hosts & servers were all amazing people who genuinely just want you to have a good meal. I really admire any restaurant that can truly make it feel like home. Thanks to Shaker + Spear for being amazing for our trip in Washington- will 100% be back!!

Nice and easy restaurant attached to a hotel. Service was rather slow this evening as there was…read moreonly one cook in the kitchen. It's nice to watch the staff cook because it tells you that the food is fresh. I have high expectations for seafood in Seattle. However, I was disappointed with the scallops as it tasted raw and cool to the touch in the center. I'm not a scallop expert but this one missed the mark - the flavors were off with the sauce (tasted earthy). Presentation and color looked good, but this didn't taste good. Also came here breakfast several times. I don't have pictures, but each time the breakfast was amazing!
