Review Summary

Overall, Seau de Crabe delivers fresh seafood with generous portions and flavorful sauces that many diners find satisfying. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming and the staff are usually friendly and attentive, though some visits feature slower service or moments of chilly attitude. Value is mixed, with portions and quality praised but prices sometimes felt high for the amount received, especially with takeout where packaging and sauce portions sparked complaints. Repeated visits and consistent praise for the crab and shrimp show this spot as a reliable choice for seafood lovers, while a few reviews caution about variability in service and pacing.

If you love saucy seafood boils this place is definitely worth trying . The shrimp were super juicy & covered in buttery seasoned sauce with just the right amount of spice. The sauce soaked into the rice too which made it even better 🦐🔥

The portion was honestly pretty generous & everything tasted fresh. Messy in the best way possible lol. Definitely one of those comfort seafood spots you crave late at night.

En francais : Si vous aimez les fruits de mer bien saucés, cette place vaut vraiment le détour . Les crevettes étaient super juteuses & couvertes d'une sauce beurre épicée pleine de saveur. Même le riz absorbait toute la sauce .

La portion était généreuse & tout goûtait frais. C'était salissant dans le meilleur sens possible lol. Définitivement un spot réconfortant que je recommanderais aux amateurs de fruits de mer.

Really confused at first because I walked in at the counter with two workers just talking to each other & no greeting or acknowledge if my presence. This happened for a good minute until the one girl who was taking care of all the tables came & finally greeted me. Normally I would've left but it was raining & I wanted fried seafood. Then as the service went on I saw they were kind of trading turns working... it was interesting. It got so busy at one point that they all had to work at work... wild huh haha. Anyway, the food, the food was pretty good. It looked beautiful (check the pics) it was honestly like the most healthy tasting fried seafood I've ever had. The shrimps & chips were so crunchy (deliciously so) & they just had a not so salty nor greasy look, feel, & taste about them. I got the large portion & couldn't finish it all so took it to go. Also had sauces on the side like Heinz ketchup hot sauce, & two other dipping sauces. None were very salty nor flavorful to me strangely. Though I'm s fan of intense flavors & excellent service, I would overall recommend a visit to this place. It's like a healthy fried seafood or book spot. & prices aren't ridiculous. The meal cost me CAD$24 - CAD$34 after tax & tips & could've fed 2.

Their Dynamite shrimp used to have way more sauce & shrimps. This evening we order two portions of the dynamite shrimp & was absolutely disappointed with the new change. Same price for way less. Flavour is still good but not worth the money. -Renee
