I don’t like to do negative reviews but our meal we ordered (Snow Crab in Baltimore sauce > garlic butter) took almost 1 hour till we received it and to our disappointment, the crab legs were all over cooked, the dish was drenched in garlic making it even more hard to enjoy it & lastly for a crab dish there was a lot more mussels in my dish then there was crab legs smh 😑. I’m a seafood lover & I wont compare it to other amazing crabhouse/mukbangs/crab boil restaurants/takeaways I’ve had overseas cause that ain’t fair but I paid $95 for my meal so I expect it to be worth $95. To be honest it wasn’t. Other than that the staff was great.

Loved the food here, my partner came once with work and was blown away, so he had to bring me here to. I was not at all disappointed by the quality of the food and the service. Can’t wait to come back again to try more items on the menu.

My friend and I went for dinner on a Monday evening and the service was very attentive, informative and we split the crab mac n’cheese balls (good serving size, and divine!!) as an entree and split the Snow Crab seafood combo with the champagne citrus sauce for a light dinner with a glass of sparkling wine each. It was perfect and we can’t wait to come back!

Me an my partner decided to go to the Crabhouse for date night and boy it did not disappoint. Staff were so friendly and the atmosphere was fun and relaxed. Some of the best seafood I’ve had in my life. We definitely splurged a bit but you can easily have a filling meal for $50. Cannot recommend the sizzling garlic prawns and Moreton bay bugs enough. Will be coming back here for sure.

Fantastic restaurant, easy to find parking, staff were very friendly and attentive, we got the daily specials to try a bit of everything - the seafood was fresh, the pork ribs were massive and the service was super quick. We'll definitely be back.

Pure and simple, the food here is great and the service was excellent. The prawn starter with garlic butter sauce was the stand out starter of the night. The lobster main share platter was nice but could be better if the lobster flesh hadn't been removed and buggered around with a light mayo type sauce and then placed back in the shell. The rest of the lobster platter was great. The crab share platter was the best main of the evening and had a decent amount of crab meat. We will definitely be back to try the ribs and have another prawn starter.

This small restaurant really packs a punch. We enjoyed the friendly personalized service provided by our waiter for the evening. Our crab meals amazing and very tasty. We enjoyed the procedure of donning protective aprons and gloves. The food and drinks are reasonably priced.

Good Food, Good Service but the small facility meant that the noise did not make for a quiet evening. Perhaps the opening of windows would alleviate this. Also no choice available for 1 person serve of King/Snow crab so I had to order local crab.
