The Crab House

Yes it was delicious and filled me up and I loved it and I just kept eating and eating and I loved the black muscles and shrimp head off and 1lb of snow crab

Employees were super friendly when i entered. We ordered the party 1 boil combo. It comes with 1 pound snowcrab. 1 pound Dungeness crab, 1 pound shrimp, 1 pound clams, 6 potatoes, and 6 corns. For $99 plus tax. For the price it was a lot of food. I'm so surprised there wasn't a full restaurant. It was so delicious and filling. Said it was for 4 people, but we ate it as 2 and finished it all with the exception of a few potatoes. The flavor was amazing . Just the right amount of garlic and Cajun seasoning. I would order this again and again. If you haven't tried this place out, please do! This local jewel will be my go-to anytime I'm in Denver!!!

Though I miss the Village Inn, I'm pumped to have a new, casual, cajun place so close-by! They've got a great menu, comparable to Crawling Crab or Yabby Hut. It wasn't super busy when I went, probably because it's fairly new and in a tough location. However, I loved my experience! The seafood came out piping hot in a large serving dish (they may have switched this up from the bag method I saw in some other reviews). The seafood was perfectly cooked and well seasoned. I'm not usually a fan of cajun corn, but this one hit different, the cajun seasoning was bomb. We also tried the "Crab House Basket", a fried seafood sampler, and it was delicious. Not oily, crispy, and paired great with the sauces.It's a bit pricey, but didn't seem out of range with other cajun restaurants I've been to. The service was great, the staff is clearly working hard and care about the customers. I hope more people take notice and check them out, they're worth a shot!See more photos and reviews on my food Instagram, @sammychews!

I have been going here since they opened a couple years ago and it has been nothing but excellent! The food is always served hot and fresh and it's so flavorful. The service is awesome too, they know us well and what we like to order. I like the quiet laid back ambiance. I definitely recommend this place for really great crab!

First (and last) time eating here.Took my husband for his birthday and it was not good. His clam chowder came out and you could see that it was split / separated/ curdled whatever you want to call it and had an odd smell to it. He took 2 bites and slid it to the side of the table.Our waitress asked if something was wrong and when he told her he did not care for it, she took it back and did not charge us for it. I ordered shrimp cocktail and I can't even describe what was wrong with it. The shrimp had a "mealy" texture, I guess? They seemed somehow overcooked and underdone at the same time.My son took 2 bites of one and put the rest down.I ate one and a half and spit the other half in a napkin. Did not touch the rest of them. (They do not have a kid's menu, so you basically have to get a $12.99 plate of fried shrimp or chicken tenders for kids.)The chicken seemed like it was frozen and old. It had a weird texture and was very chewy. (I saw another review that referred to it as mystery meat which is dead-on)The fries were good and my husband did enjoy his lobster roll. It was 5:30 on a Friday evening and there were only 2 other tables. It was not busy nor was it closing time, so I am not sure why the food was so bad. I am really disappointed that I chose The Crab House for my husband's birthday dinner.

Delicious seafood boils at a low price. Yummy drink selection too and our waitress was attentive.

This is a new spot, it's in the old Village Inn off I-70 on Kipling. The ambiance is nice and it's great seafood in a casual environment. Come as you are either in shorts, flip flops and a tank or dress to the nines in a fancy dress. They have a variety of flavors to put in your boil bag and the have lots of good sides to go a long with your order. The prices are reasonable for seafood We paid $82 (without tip) for 3 of us and that included 2 beers and an appetizer. A 1 pound combo was enough food for an adult man. The service is lacking a bit though. For example we ordered the clam chowder (the only item we don't recommend) and never got a spoon. Then I asked for silverware and they brought 1 knife & 1 spoon for 3 people. We only saw our server to order drinks & food, all other times we were helped by the host and when I paid the check, the person who ran my payment asked for the slip right after I totaled the check and signed it, which wasn't bad, just felt a little awkward versus being able to just leave it on the table, it was 6:30pm when we left so it wasn't like they were closing and the person had recently started her shift so she wasn't trying to leave. Overall, we will be back as the set backs to service I am relating to being a new restaurant opening and the food & flavor was good!

Let me start by saying the food was good.We got the special that they were running which was a cluster of each snow and Dungeness crab, lb clams, lb shrimp, lb mussels , 4 corn, and 4 potatoes with butter garlic sauce. We ordered sausage because it didn't come with it but the sausage was below average and was disappointing. It's in the old Village Inn restaurant and by the looks of it you would still think that your in the old Village Inn restaurant because they literally didn't change anything. But that's irrelevant I guess. The service was below average. When we went the restaurant was empty and the waitress never came to us to see how we were doing until we were about done or we would have ordered more wine/beer.At the end of the day would I go back? No.Because the location is sketch and I could just go to Hook and Reel or Joe's Crab Shack for the same thing with better service and ambiance.

For a local Arvada/Wheat Ridge place, it satisfied my craving for a spicy garlic butter crab and shrimp (head on, of course) boil. The chicken tenders are some sort of mystery meat though. Very strange texture. My kids wouldn't eat it. Also, the cocktails are pretty weak and the calamari is a strange texture as well...extremely chewy. Overall, for the price we paid, I would drive further to the Crawling Crab for a 5 star meal. Would I go back? Yes, if I wanted to stay local. We will be back when crawfish are in season (fresh, not frozen) to see how that goes as well.

We love love this place! We drive over 40 minutes just to have this culinary event...Our server is always amazing - the food is fresh, flavorful (you pick how you want it) and a totally fun way to eat!!!Seafood isn't EVER cheap BUT you get to pick it what you eat! We always choose snow crab and clams - WITH a side of rice to sop up the delicious sauce at the bottom of the pan.M-TH is happy hour - b1g1 beer or wine! Can't go wrong there! Don't let some bad reviews keep you from here! It's spectacular!!!
