Reviews describe Seau de Crabe as a lively, casual spot for seafood lovers, with fresh shellfish, generous portions, and a signature sauce that many diners keep coming back for. The hands-on dining with gloves and bibs adds a playful touch, and the staff is frequently praised for friendly, attentive service. Dishes ranging from shrimp and crab to lobster and mussels are consistently noted for quality and flavor, and buckets are often highlighted as good value for sharing. The experience can vary in practice, with some guests reporting long waits, occasional gaps in service or supplies, and a few issues with temperature or heating. Overall, the restaurant is regarded as a standout option in Montreal for a memorable seafood boil, and many guests say they would return and recommend it to friends, despite the occasional caveat about price or consistency.
I bought some takeout & very disappointed because the sauce which should be the heart of the food is just a small tiny box & not even enough for half bag of seafood. In other words, the rest of the bag is tasteless. The only thing I would recommend is their fries which is so crunchy. I would go back only for the fries & skip the expensive disappointing seafood.
Nous avons essayé le seau des délices de la mer & malheureusement ce n'était pas a notre attente en terme de quantité, nous étions deux & c'était trop peu suffisant malgré le prix de 83.99$ +tx. Je m'attendais à au moins être un peu plus généreux simplement avec le riz, une seule portion pour deux personnes c'est risible honnêtement, nous avons dû en commander une deuxième. Pour l'aspect positif je dirais que la sauce seau de crabe était excellente & les aliments étaient frais. Le service quant à lui était irréprochable. Malheureusement le rapport quantité/prix était trop faible pour que je revienne.
Excellente découverte !Les fruits de mer étaient d'une fraîcheur incroyable,bien assaisonné & parfaitement cuisinés.L'ambiance est chaleureuse & le service très professionnel.
Went there for a quick lunch today as I am an avid customer of this resto. Unfortunately today the lady seemed not to be in good mood to work. She was on the phone most of the time & the quality of her service is very poor. She never smile, very disrespectful & when we asked for additional rice & cup she just doesn't care at all & had to repeat again, it's like we have to beg to get our order. This staff needs proper training for customer service. Truly disappointing.
Un excellent restaurant de fruits de mer La qualité est au rendez-vous & tout est bien présenté. Petit coup de coeur pour les sauces, elles font vraiment la différence.
I had such a wonderful evening at Seau de Crabe Restaurant 🦀✨
The atmosphere was cozy & stylish, perfect for a relaxing dinner. The seafood was incredibly fresh, especially the crab - absolutely delicious! Every dish was beautifully presented & full of flavor.
The staff were friendly, attentive, & made the whole experience feel special. You can really tell they care about their guests.
If you love seafood & want a place with great vibes & amazing food, this restaurant is definitely worth visiting. I will happily come back again!
Repas à trois après une attente de 30 minutes.
Les seaux sont beaux & très bons, la sauce est magique ! Par contre, pas d'ustensiles pour éplucher les pattes de homard sauf des ciseaux d'écolier que nous avons été obligé de demander … & 1 seul ciseau pour 3. Bref, cuisine très bonne mais service très moyen.
