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.
Temps d attente pour avoir une table & etre servi est assez long ( environ 1h20) ,le personnel feminin en avant ne cesse de parler en arabe devant les clients & entre lui ,Il faut réclamer des gants . Juste une fourchette pour' casser' les pattes de crabes,donc difficiles ,les boissons demandées ne sont pas les bonnes servies. Des tables de quatre sont prises pour des couples ,donc délai d attente pour s asseoir encore plus long . Déçus.
Accueuil décevant, pas de bonsoir , on nous demande seulement d'aller commander avant de s'assoir.
La portion du seau est décevante versus le prix. Les crevettes étaient excellentes, les moules & le crabe, rien d'extra. Le riz lui était infecte, de très mauvaise qualité.
Aucun service de la serveuse qui n'a apporté que l'assiette sur la table dans nous souhaiter un bon appétit.
Décevant ++.
Une seule fois pour ce restaurant. ☹

The waitress is kind & welcoming. She recommended good meals that suit my taste better. The food is high quality & price is affordable. What a very good location. It's near stores with good desserts also, so really love it !
My husband & I dined there last week Jan. 22. We ordered the winter special & the food was amazing! It made us forget about the rude young lady/cashier. We asked her a simple question about the menu in a nice way but she acted sarcastic/rude... not welcoming at all. Half way, the place & our food became very cold.. not sure if the heating was on.
The food was rlly good but gabby honestly made the night she was our waitress & she really went above & beyond to make sure we had a good meal & she completed my wide which was a nice touch
