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.
J'ai été manger pour essayer, parce que mes amis m'avait recommandé, j'ai aimé les patates & puis même si que le homard était congelé, c'était OK, mais j'ai trouvé un morceau de plastique bizarre dans les pattes de crabe, & j'ai tout de suite pris un vidéo & demander à la serveuse de venir me voir J'ai dit j'avais plus d'appétit parce que je trouve ça absolument ridicule il restait au moins 95 ou 90 % de mon assiette & quand je lui ai dit elle a appelé la police & ils m'ont fait payer 50 % de quelque chose que je donnerais même pas à mon chien
SO YUMMY. LOBSTER MUSSELS & SHRIMP SO BUTTERY!!!!!!!!! WILL BE COMING BACK. (We got the seau du crab, $105 with tax- pricey but yummyyyyyyyyyyy). They forgot to give us the signature sauce in our takeaway but I didn't even care. It was just that good. Also the food last me & boyfriend 3 days, we just cooked some more rice to go along with it.

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.
Wow what good service from Majdouline. She took her time to explain the menu & made some recommendations. I use to go to the west & will for sure come back for her service.
Really loved the experience went to the Brossard one, sauce is also very good here all the seau de crabe branches are Ecxellent & the service is very good!
