Star Crab is by far the best seafood restaurant ever! The food is very tasty and delicious the sauces is to die for! Yes people told us about Broiling Crab and Kicking Crab! But sorry my husband and I are hooked on Star Crab seafood restaurant! This our new place for now on! The service was superb! The waiter Tony was very knowledgeable about everything that we had question about !the place was clean and friendly! My husband and I won't go anywhere else for our seafood also the food was fresh. Thank you Tony!!! read more

Since I live far from boiling crab ... my family and I check this out and we all In shock because not only the service was great ... the food was so delicious and it's almost like a boiling crab. So ever since then always recommended this place to my family, friends and Co worker and other business that I attend to check this out and they will never be disappointed. read more

I love this place but i finally ordered the most expensive family meal and i really feel like it was not worth it at all. It was the SMALLEST lobster tail. Barely any shrimp. It was mostly just sauce. Very disappointed. It was my go to place but i will be trying other nearby places in the area. read more

I didn't get enough food and I was missing my corn. I ordered 2 and only got 1. If only they would double check before handing it out. It would be very generous so I didn't complain because now they just stole my money. read more

This is definitely the BEST seafood in a bag in the I.E. I've had pretty much everything (seafood in a bag) from San Bernardino to Ontario and the flavor here was the best. I order the shrimp and crab legs all the seasonings with the spiciest flavor (911) and it definitely makes my nose run but it's so addicting . Customer service is excellent besides NOT answering the phone for take out orders. You sometimes have to press redial 5x just to get through. The parking isn't the best but I've never had to wait more then 2-3min for a car to leave. It's located right across from the Tyler mall in a good location. read more

Their shrimp tasted so good! I ordered full house mild 1 lb shrimp, 1 sausage, 1 corn and potatoes. The corn was so soft and moist. Lots of parking in the back. I gave it 4 stars because we waited for a long time to get our food. Shrimp with head and shell was $15/lb read more

This place is so good!! It's a great alternative to Boiling Crab, since they don't have one nearby. We went on a Saturday evening and only waited 20 minutes. Our server was nice and their overall service was great. This was our second time here. The first time, I wasn't too excited about it but this second time changed my opinion completely. I believe the expanded the restaurant since the last time I tried this place; so it does have more of a Boiling Crab vibe with the booths on the sides. Overall, 5 stars because we will be coming back! read more

Best Cajun shrimp I've had! Definitely pricy but seems the same just about everywhere they sell fish by the pound like this so I can't complain. Definitely recommend it! read more

Pains me to say that I think this is the last time I'm coming here. The flavor has always been amazing. Today the shrimp was quite cold but that's not the reason for the two stars. Their king crab comes out to about 40 dollars. However you will be disappointed. There was hardly any meat in these legs. For the price I paid I expected more. You could get more meat in a snow crab cluster. Very disappointed. Their shrimps are quite small too. Star crab you served me well for years, but I think it's time to find a new spot. Save your money and don't buy the king crab. read more

Thos Particular Star Crab Location, is by far the Best Loc of All 4... They are friendly, PROFESSIONAL, Caring, Considerate, Humane, Go above and beyond for Customers and their Orders, as well as for their Safety. I have Visited here and circulated large amount of Money here over the Pandemic, and each time it was Worth it. However, I can NOT say that for the SAN BERNARDINO Hospitality Ln Location, Nor its Rude, Hostile, threatening, and RACIST Staff... i will be following this huge statement up with a REVIEW, and Video! After yesterdays APPAULING Service. THANK YOU Riverside Star Crab, for the CONTINUED Exceptional Service over the Past Pandemic Year, you've Made My Seafood Cravings happy! read more

This is the go to spot for bagged shrimp!! I have loved this spot for quite some time now. The flavors are so delicious, the shrimp is easy to peel and their cajun fries hit the spot everytime! Free refils on the drinks, can get a bucket of beer. Atmosphere is chill. Only thing i can think of that does need work on is customer service, once youre served i feel like i never see them again.. read more

I dont care who you are... if you are serving any kind of seafood at all especially crustaceon make sure that what you order is always FRESH and NEVER FROZEN . Ever! So here I am in Star Crab Hoping that everything is FRESH..... yeah about that... most items are FROZEN. Your better off buying your own FRESH seafood. Yeah its stated that they have frozen seafood options...( like really who the....F owns this establishment. I feel so bad for the servers having to explain that the seafood here isnt all fresh. Service: so far our waitress is very kind she us know the scoop on everything. Great hostess nice chill music in the background as well. Decore': typical basic type of seafood joint, booths and tables for seating. Plasma playing sports. Tile floors. Restrooms are clean and I see they try they're hardest to keep it stocked. Anyways our food hasn't gotten to our table yet, We ordered Dungeon crab and shrimp plus fried ocra and a sausage link. I'm just Wondering... How does appetizer not come B4 anything! Honestly why even step foot in a place like this when they are a disappointment. Im trying SO HARD TO BE VERY NICE.... ANYWAY... BRB going to try Whatever they have Live that we ordered. Stay tuned! FOOD: Okay so we got our bag of seafood. The Dungeness crab was meaty and sweet. The shrimp were average. THE OCRA WASNT MADE FRESH. It obviously was frozen. Like come on Star Crab! The Garlic seasoning at medium was really delicious. I used the garlic bread to dip The potatoes were cooked well. Corn was mediocre. If your just wanting shrimp and fresh Crab this place seems to have it available. Like I dont understand the point of having frozen Seafood served at a Restaurant... no shame right? Pretty savage AF I would say. Glad to try this place out since its literally right near my Fave Pho Spot. Never Again will I EVER ATTEND. And our bill was like $70. I'm so disappointed on the cost. No im not cheap. The Meal was Just Not worth $70 Lucky they even got a Tip because the service was decent. All in All, WILL NOT BE RETURNING! read more

They put so much sauce on food50% chance Ryan and Crescent are coming tonight. Or, just coming tomorrow you can't taste it. Scallops small ones and crawdad's . Fish & fries fish real tasty every thing else don't know what it's like. Craw dad's over cooked to chewy. read more

Help! I can't give more than 5 stars!! I have tried Boiling Crab and all of the other knockoffs. And this place has lived up to the hype and dare I say it, exceeded it. I guess the place is still relatively new and is hard to find (like most gems are), which attributes to it not being as busy. Our server was a dear old man named Don who was more energetic than my group of youths were. He definitely made the experience much better and kept us laughing with everytime he came to the table. Now on to the food. The selections were numerous. Good golly! When you go to Boiling Crab, you already know what you want and most likely won't change upon ordering. However here the vast array of choices made the anticipation of the meal that much greater. We order the Cajun and sweet potato fries, shrimp, dungeonous crab (which is the biggest I've ever had. And I only order the dungeonous crab) and the breaded catfish. The flavor aren't empty kicks either but a mix of good sauces. Overall experience was better than pleasant. Will definitely be coming back. read more

Star Crab - Great selection - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

Great food great atmosphere! My kids love this place! Seafood was fresh. Wait staff on point & the place was clean. Quite affordable as well. Great seafood spot in the Inland Empire. read more

Ive been sick as a dog since i ate here last night. I think they served me bad crawfish. Below was my original 3 star review. The crawfish tasted very old and extra fishy. Everything else was good. Glad we got a mixed bag because if I would have just got the crawfish this would be a one star review. I'm a Riverside local but next time I'm craving I'd rather us the gas to go to boiling crab in Ontario the food and service are both better there. read more

Love love love this place maybe even better than boiling crab in OC. The food is always prepared to perfection and within a good amount of time. Pricing is also very good read more

My wife and I came here on a whim. We were thinking about going to the Boiling Crab and she suggested we try to find a place closer to us. So we settled on this place. The service was decent for a pretty busy dining room. We didn't have to wait over an hour to be seated. Food was brought out quickly and drinks were kept full. Now, we're big fans of the Boiling Crab and we're hoping this place was just like it, but alas, it was not. Don't get me wrong, the food here is good, but it's just not the same. The sauce (which there's not enough of for my liking) was just Ok. It seemed like it might be missing a couple of ingredients to be spot on. The shrimp are a bunch to bigger here, but because of that, it seems like you don't get the same amount. The potatoes aren't even cut (which would give them a bit more flavor) and the corn was clearly frozen, previously. I might come here again, or I might now, but this place is certainly not a replacement for the Boiling Crab. I'll take the extra wait, and more time on the road for a better tasting meal. read more

Star Crab - Menu as of today - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

This place is outstanding, I live in MD, a crab capital of the USA and this place rocks my socks lol. I adore their Dungeness crab with the full house. Add those soft potatoes and juicy corn and your having a feast. So well priced and always impresses. Their timeframes are realistic though, they are busy AF on weekends. 45 minute wait + line to pick up (100% worth every second so don't give up! Just plan ahead lol) week days is waaay faster and no line. Totally hit them up if you love a good crab feast with on par seasoning. Also I highly reccomend mild seasoning and full house for those who aren't into heat heat but like spice. And please consider, dipping everything in melted butter is god tier excellence lol). read more

Ordered my food for pick up was told 40-50 minute wait. Wife went to pick up order only to find out it was wrong. Called in and was told told to return the order and they will remake it. At this point we were told to wait another 30 minutes. Went back at 30 minutes later and asked for my order and the guy in the front went to check on it and came back to tell me that is was not ready and would have to wait another 20 minutes. 30 minutes later I was still waiting for my food. From the time I ordered to the time I got my food (4:30:6:45 ). I will not be coming back to this place. I would rather make the drive into OC for the original Boiling Crab read more

Star Crab - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

Star crab you have seriously won me over on the first try!! I was told this place usually has a line out the door but we were able to get seated immediately when coming in at 7:30pm on a Monday night. All the servers are friendly and very attentive. We chose the family dinner for 32.95, onion rings, fresh oysters, and a pitcher of Amber rock. Everything came out fast! Beer was delicious and the onion rings were huge and so crispy. The portion of the oysters were huge. We chose the full house sauce and medium spice. Medium spice was a biiiit too spicy for my mom so if you have a low spice tolerance id just go for mild. The family dinner we chose came with sausages, potatoes, two corn, and we chose two pounds of shrimp and one mussel! Everything we ordered was just perfect for the 3 of us who came in very hungry. We left stuffed and very happy :) I would definitely come again!! read more

Never again will I order from Star Crab.. They sent me a notification saying I was going to get my order between 5:30-5:45.. They even told the guy from door dash to pick up and 5:45.. They had him waiting, I called several times and they didn't answer.. I understand it's a holiday but I got my food till 7 that's just ridiculous and to top it off I only live 10 min away and the food was cold.. We didn't even enjoy it. read more

Food was great. Not a lot of variety but it's not meant to. No real kids options but enough options for me. Had the shrimp, lobster, crawfish, sausage and calamari here. Wasn't a big fan of the crawfish. A lot of work for little meat. For those of us who haven't tried boiling crab: u pick ur meat, sauce, and spicyness. They bring it to u in a big clear bag. Ur table is covered in butcher paper and u don't get utensils unless u ask. All the meats (except sausage) come whole. Meaning u have to be ok with ripping the heads and legs off things. Sounds worse than it actually is. The sauce is really good. Recommendations: order the shrimp (about 1/2 lb per person) with the spicy house sauce. Add sausage to the bag and order a side of rice. Put sauce on ur rice. Be satisfied. Cons: I could never go there with my young ones. Too messy. Would complain about having to work for food (god forbid) plus it would take forever to clean the shrimp for them and me before enjoying. Another con, service isn't that great. Not bad but they aren't attentive and sometimes forget things I ask for. All and all I will continue to come back. read more

I placed a to go order at 7:54pm on 03/03/2023 and it's now 8:31 and have yet to receive my order, i then asked the lady if she can check on my food and even asking her that she responded in such a bothered way. Like if you can't have my food ready when you say you are why even put a time frame on it. it's now 8:42pm and just received my food. SMH bad experience. It's 8:58, I'm home now and they didn't put my potato, sausage, or corn in my bag this places sucks read more

First timer. Ate with the family today for lunch. We ordered the Calamari, (a must have in our family, and it came with fries yayyy) the Snow Crab family feast which priced just under 100, but the portion did our family of 5 right. My husband always eats his heart out as well as the kids, with seafood, so they were satisfied. Both of our blue crab nearly didn't have meat in them, but being that I've personally bought blue crab myself fresh and have been unfortunate, didn't really take this the wrong way. The we had hot garlic and pepper, mild, on that and ordered crawfish with Cajun hot. They both had good flavor, not too too much not too too little. The service was okay. We didn't really see much of them, but at the same time because we were enjoying our own entertainment, it mattered little; however, if it were more busy I do hope they are more attentive. Great find indeed! read more

Horrible customer service, extremely rude. Called ahead and asked what the wait time was, I was informed there was no wait arrived 5 min later and was told it was 45 min to 1 hr. Restaurant is empty and they won't seat us because they are waiting on reservations. Asked 20 min later how much longer and was told 1 hour. This is a joke, obviously you don't want our money after a two month shutdown. Good luck, we won't be back. read more

Where do i begin , i ordered my food from DoorDash and when it arrived it was completely cold . I looked past that and had a taste of my fried crab and fried okra , and it was unseasoned with plain panko crumbs by the taste of it . If you want blah, then by all means visit the star crab. If you're like me and want quality when you spend nearly 30 dollars on lunch , then go somewhere else where they actually season their food . read more

I've been there about 4 times. Food is good! But the staff(girls) are super rude & not don't attempt to go even a fraction out of the way to make your experience good. Every time I go! It will be my last time going. Made it very unenjoyable. read more

My family and myself have been coming to this restaurant for a while now. It's nice to see how much they have grown. Their food is great, at a good price. The place is always clean and the food service is quick. Usually the food arrives at your table in a few minutes after you have placed your order. We love their full house, mild shrimp, their Cajun fries, and their sweet tea, but in general everything is good. My family and I come here so often they already know our usual and we will definitely continue coming here. read more

I enjoyed my Togo food!! Will be back to order here again!! Reasonable price. The sauce is almost perfect!! It was delicious!!
