Ricky, my server was absolutely awesome. Awesome! Full of smiles. Very helpful. Now the food from the snow crab to the shrimp to the muscles to the sausage. Everything was absolutely tender . Cooked to perfection. Rubbery and nothing undercooked absolutely some of the best seafood that I've had in the longest time. And I eat out all the time 👍🏽 Great job!🙌🏽🙏🏽❤️ Not to mention the wrong oysters were extremely tender. Cleaned no grit at all and they were just so big and meaty. Worth every penny.

FEON was genuinely the best waitress we’ve ever had. It was an absurdly busy Valentine’s night, but she made an effort to be attentive, kind, and welcoming. I will certainly be back, and the food was nothing short of spectacular! We had the COMBO A crab boil with a half pound of clams. Worth it!! Great prices, better times. Love the Golden Crab!!! Again, shout out to Feon for memorable 5 star service! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Food was good, but I prefer my boil cooked longer in spices. Service was excellent. I would recommend it and we have been there before. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $10–20 Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes make your own seafood combo 自制海鲜套餐

The food was good and the seasoning was spot on! The waitstaff were efficient and polite, but no one seemed friendly or welcoming. We were out to celebrate my husband's birthday and were interested in dessert, but the ticket was just left at our table as the waitress walked by heading to another table. There were not a lot of customers and many empty tables, so I would have hoped for a little more attention and service. We will go back, but we hope for a more friendly experience.

My 12 chicken wings were over- fried and hard to chew. The clam chowder and fried oysters were delicious. The cajun fries had the seasoning that I missed so much from New Orleans. I will give the food a four out of five because of the wings. There was a little black basket attached to our booth and it was very dusty. So they get a three for cleanliness.

I recently ordered golden crab via Grubhub, hoping to satisfy a seafood craving. While online orders can sometimes be hit or miss, I was excited to indulge. However, as I delved into my boil, I discovered a piece of metal-like string, possibly from the seafoods bag’s tie, in my food. This unsettling find left me unable to continue eating, especially considering I'm currently pregnant and concerned about potential hazards. Additionally, the clams in my order were improperly cleaned, as I found myself biting into sand and what felt like rocks. As a loyal customer of Golden Crab, I'm disappointed by this experience. I urge them to improve their handling of online orders to match the quality of their dine-in service. Please, do better. Service Delivery

To be fair I normally don’t eat seafood outside of New Orleans, especially a boil, something we are known for. I was not a fan of the sausage. The corn was good, the crabs were small but good and flavorful. The seasoning was decent, they have a nice variety of seasons. The price is reasonable. The staff is friendly and the place is clean! If I can recommend anything it would be andouille sausage. Overall, it’s a nice place to have a good time.

Went with my brother. Forgot a pic. But it looks like every other crab boil pic you've seen. I had the "A" menu combo. That has a half pound of shrimp and half pound snow crab legs and half pound black mussels. I got the house season, with mild spicy. My brother had the "D" combo. It has one pound snow crab and half pound shrimp. He had the butter sauce, no spicy. We both had water and with tip it was $84. Filling, good, expensive. If you like seafood boils than this is good. It's nice that you can choose your seasoning and spice level. I'm going hotter than mild and my brother says he'll definitely get at least the mild next time and the house seasoning. I'd say worthy of a try. Just expect it to be pricy. There are more choices than the combos that would be cheaper. I'm interested in trying sausage, and shrimp a la carte, not the big combo. See other people's pics for the menu. It's all there. Not a soul in there but my brother and myself. Nice decor and very clean. Enjoy!
