What Luke Lavoie likes about The Boiling Crab:
Always tasty! I'm always surprised how empty it is in here because it's so good, the service is great, and it's a great vibe the playlist is always on point like early 2000s top hits! My go to place for crab! View all feedback. What BettyBoop大腦門兒 doesn't like about The Boiling Crab:
We found one clam like this in boiling crab take out order. The majority of the shrimp had a texture resembling mashed potatoes, indicating they were far from fresh. I know it’s hard to do business nowadays however food safety is of utmost importance, and incidents like this should be taken seriously. View all feedback.

Nearly 90% of the shrimps had a texture resembling mashed potatoes, suggesting they were not fresh, how such poorly prepared food could have passed inspection.
