I was visiting The area and staying at a hotel in the neighborhood, and i thought I would give this place a try. I guess I was expecting a bit more than what I got. I had requested a garlic flavoring with a mild touch. I have to say I was very disappointed to get scallops with no flavor enhancements, say with like some old bay. The sauce was very bland and even the garlic butter had no flavor at all. Everything is sold by the pound with a very limited menu. I got the scallops with a side of 3 red potatoes with no flavorings. As if this was not already a sub par meal, the waitstaff were extremely slow and seemed to be in no rush to wait on me. $45.00 including tip ( I'm not a bad sport) For a lack luster attempt at Cajun cuisine. I would not recommend this restaurant. read more

Ok... so maybe as a Houstonian I have been deprived of good crawfish. I miss eating this year round! But this was legit. We only came here because Asian Cajun didn't have live crawfish. We got XXX garlic cajun butter and it was amazing. It was juicy (bc suck the head) and flavorful. I always bring my own spice to dip in and we kept saying how good it was. We will return... probably sooner than later. We also got some curly fries and those were great too. Happy they have IPAs! Karen was our server and was absolutely amazing. She helped guide us on our spice level and took such great care of us. read more

Loved dining here for a girls dinner haha We ordered snow and king crabs and the all in and Cajun sauce! All in sauce is really good and had a nice kick to it - we got the medium and it was siracha level spicy! The fried shrimp here are probably my favorite - I usually don't prefer eating shrimps outside but I really enjoyed them here. Everything was really good and we had such a good time. Highly recommend you try the seafood here in the all in sauce! read more

This is one of the original seafood boil spots here in Denver and I am obsessed with the sauce! We decided to order a pound of shrimp, crawfish, and two pounds of clams and we got the all in with triple X spice. The sauce has stayed the same since I've been coming here as a teenager back in 2012 and it's super garlicky and spicy. The service was great as usual and our server was very attentive. The only downside this time was some of our oysters had a weird smell and I had to stop eating them but I have never had a problem with the oysters here before so maybe it was just this time! We came here for lunch on Saturday and it was pretty empty but it was nice and quiet which we enjoyed. read more

This place is so underated and deserves to be seen! They are so nice and have great quality and fresh food

I would say they do skimp you on food if you order to go, or ordered for delivery. They are not worth the price at all, I weighed it when I got home and it was only half a pound of shrimp, don't waste your time here, I would order elsewhere or just make it at home. read more

Best tasting seafood boil we've had in Colorado. The restaurant was warm and welcoming. A short wait but the servers were kind & attentive

Food was delicious! And the spice was SPICING!!! Medium is HAWWWTTTTT. The corn could've been a little more sweet. But no complaints. read more

Great service by Wendy and terrific food. My wife and each had a couple of lobster tails and we both really enjoyed them. The people in the next table had oysters and several entrees and they said that they were all great. It's a fun and energetic atmosphere. If you are looking for quiet and stuffy, might not be for you but my wife and I (typically like quiet dining) completely enjoyed our experience! Big seafood selection. read more

Great food and service. Totally recommend this place for dinner. I really liked the crab.

As someone from California missing Boiling Crab this place satisfied the craving enough. I ordered shrimp whole, the shrimp was cooked well. The heat was different to my scale could have been spicier, so if you're a person who likes spicy maybe order a level above than what you normally would. The flavor was good but personally felt like it was missing and sauce. I later realized you can order extra sauce on the side. The service was great, waitress was nice and the food was brought out at a good time. Overall good experience and enough parking. read more

So good . Service was friendly, the place wasn't overly crowded and very family friendly. Nothing fancy about the decor but definitely welcoming . The seafood was fresh and well seasoned . My one complaint is beware if you're ordering spicy because they do NOT play with the spice , AT ALL. I love eating with my hands so I enjoyed every second of it . Best crab boil I have had out here thus far read more

This is not our first time going to this establishment, but when we went in for dinner today we were seated by our waitress she left and never asked us for our drinks order, she went a sat down with her colleagues and after 5 minutes she came back to get our drinks. We asked to sp with the manager she stated that is how they do things but she never came back with the drink read more

Okay crawfish clams and sausage is amazing. And their Cajun fries are absolute bomb dot com. Nice crawfish place

My husband and I have been to this location at least 7 times...all have been excellent! I give major kudos to Karen and Eric! Karen has been our server at least 5 times, her service can't get any better, Eric was great too. The food is excellent, fresh and prepared to perfection. Our new favorite is mussels, we always get king crab, shrimp, dungeness crab, and all the extras. Great seafood is pricey, but, well worth the splurge occasionally. I highly recommend read more

There were 4 other tables in this small restaurant at 6:30 on a Wednesday night. The server was friendly and we were sat in a booth for our party of 4. The ambiance was casual and clean. The tables had the usual paper tablecloths that you see in a seafood boil restaurant. The napkins were paper from the pull-bin and the plastic ware was just that: plastic ware. They had an array of Pepsi products for $2.99 each (in paper cups) or a hot green tea for $1.99 (also in a paper cup). They were out of the mussels and the scallops. We started with a dozen raw oysters, which must have already been shucked because they came to the table within 30 seconds, served with limes (??), Zesta crackers, horseradish, Tabasco, salt/pepper, and cocktail sauce. There was no odor and they tasted delicious. Next, we ordered the crawfish chowder and seafood gumbo with rice. Lastly, the fried catfish, chicken tenders, sausages, Cajun fries, and curly fries. The soups were insanely (temperature) hot. It took a while before we could take a few bites. There were five pieces of very dry crawfish at the bottom of my chowder, but the flavor of both soups was overall good. The fries were perfect. The fish and the chicken were cooked to perfection while remaining crispy. The sausage was smoky and juicy. Great experience! read more

There was only one server, Tuong, and he was amazing, even with all of the tables he was frequently checking on everyone and made the experience great! The food was out of this world, I got the xtra spicy with shrimp and snow crab and the favor was amazing and the quality of the sea food was also very great! The ambiance of this place was very welcoming and the decor had a lot of fun touches! read more

We got the crawfish table boil, our out of town guest has been to NOLA and said that the flavor and quality were exceptional. Only minor complaint is that after the food was brought to our table, the server never returned to check on us or refill waters etc. We had a great time tho and would def recommend the spot. read more

The crawling crab is as close to New Orleans seafood as it gets! Awesome crawfish, and fresh fresh fresh oysters at a great price. Have eaten there many many times and never disappointed! And yes plastic bags and silver wear is how it's traditionally done! Best kept secret in town! read more

Overpriced. Sketchy service. Confusing menu. Unattractive space. Surprised at the crowds, what am I missing?

The All-In flavor here is really tasty. Similar establishments have a worse flavor in comparison, but they do sometimes have fresher fish. With crawling crab it's a bit hit or miss on whether the seafood will be fresh or not. Also don't expect high quality service. They are trying to get people in and out quickly read more

Pricey for what you get, service is slow. Ambiance felt like a cafeteria. Food tasted great though.

Great service and juicy fresh crawfish. Also clean restaurant with very clean and well thought out restrooms. Definitely a must-return!

We ordered 2 clusters of snow crab and a cluster of peeled shrimp. The shrimp was delicious! I feel like the crab could have had more meat to it but I don't really know crab that well. Definitely get the calamari! Price wasn't bad at all for everything we ordered. read more

We did takeout. The young host taking the order was super polite and lovely to first timers who didn't know the drill. (Go up to the table in front. Don't go inside.) Lots of folks (from diverse cultural backgrounds) on Saturday for sure so you may have to park down the side street! Waiting time went fast. Food was delicious and very fairly -priced. Medium seasoned is SUPER well seasoned. Blue crabs were large as was the shrimp. My Maryland-mermaid self will be eating some leftovers tomorrow. read more

The Crawling Crab is a great place for cajun seafood! The seafood is always fresh and the service is always friendly and speedy. To start, I always order a dozen oysters on the half shell, along with chicken wings and cajun fries (of course to share). As for the seafood, I usually opt for shrimp, crawfish, or crab legs. Always add in corn, potatoes, and sausage... they go perfect with the seafood. For the seasoning I recommend "rajun cajun" or the "all-in" if you like that classic cajun flavor. I'm used to spicy food, so the medium level gives just enough of a kick. PRO TIP: ask for gloves! read more

One of my favorite places to get Cajun seafood. I enjoy getting their King crab and shrimp! The Cajun fries are also amazing! We usually get pretty good service, but keep an eye on the fixed tip rates with larger parties as on multiple occasions, more than 18% was added to each tab! Make sure you don't wear a white shirt or pants- you will get messy eating this delicious grub! read more

Came here for my birthday this year because I was craving cajun seafood. Was not disappointed! So much delicious, spicy goodness and a decent price for the amount of food you get. I came starving, and definitely ordered too much food. Especially considering my borderline vegetarian daughter who hates spice wasn't even going near any of it. Fine. More crab for me. We order blue crabs, clams, head-on shrimp, potatoes, corn, and sausage. I would probably swap the corn/potatoes for cajun fries next time. My daughter got some, and they were great. We had to take some home, and the food was still good reheated the next day. Atmosphere was casual and friendly. We had a nice server and our food came out in a timely manner. I laid off the beer to make room for more seafood, but they do serve alcohol. All in all, if you like spicy seafood, you should check this place out! read more

Came to Crawling Crab with a group of 12+ for a birthday and left so very stuffed and happy. This place is an experience, from the plastic bibs to the succulent seafood. Our waiter was completely fun and in good spirits, and the food reasonably priced. If you're ready for a tactile eating experience, this is your spot. read more

I was on a business trip in this area and we visited a couple of the crab boil places. This place was really good and came with a ton of crab and clams. The thing that I liked the best is that they were able to combine all of their flavors into one bag! I ended up getting 3 claws of snow crab with a pound of clams on the side. I like getting the snow crab since it takes a little bit of work to get out all of the meat! The clams were very tasty but they had a ton of sand and dirt in them. They needed to be cleaned a bit more before coming out to the table. My counterpart ended up getting the king crab and it was huge! We had to buy the corn and sausage on the side even though we ended up buying 4 lbs of seafood - I found that to be a bit odd. Overall this place had excellent flavor and I would definitely visit in the future for sure! read more

I love the simplicity of this place. Went right around 3:30, had no wait. We ordered fried shrimp (so delicious), 1 lb shrimp, 1 lb clams, and added the potatoes. All-in sauce, medium spice. Perfect. The fried shrimp came out first, right out the fryer hot and delicious. Bags of seafood came a few mins later. Save the lemon from the shrimp to rub on your hands after eating; it takes out the smell! Put on your bib, ask for gloves (which are so handy for peeling and eating), and prepare to feast. Dump the goodies onto the butcher-paper table cover so it's all out in its glory. We left sated but not overstuffed. We'd definitely return but wish it weren't so far away from us! read more

This is the 2nd seafood restaurant that I experienced. This place has a nice atmosphere. It not as big as The Juicy Seafood. I was there on a weekday and noticed the place is fully pack. This tells me that it must be good which not really disappointed me. The crawfish was bigger than other places. I like their season & flavor. I would like to come back again to try other items on the menu. read more

Bad second experience, great first. We ordered two whole lobsters to go, letting them know we were going to eat them at a brewery nearby. The lobsters were not prepared to be able to eat. Whole shrimp still in tact without an option to have the lobster cleaned, or shrimp peeled and prepped. All okay, but when ordering takeout, we were wanting to just be able to eat when we picked up our order. read more
