I was sadly disappointed. Â Half the items we ordered, they no longer have. From beer to various dishes. Â If you don't carry it, then don't advertise you do. Â The "specials" weren't really specials. (They don't change the menu.) Â My wife ordered crab legs- easy enough. Â She liked it. Â I asked what was fresh-"its all fresh" not frozen- "nope not frozen" Â Okay I ordered the snapper, it was so old it had an ARRP card, and smelled bad cod. Â
The atmosphere was cozy and like able enough, and the wait staff was also nice. Â However, there are too many good seafood joints in the city that I for one will not ever return to King Crab.
The bill -mushroom appetizer, one crab leg order, snapper dinner, and a beer-$85.
I bought a groupon coupon and my husband & I went last night before going to a play.
They put us in the back and the male server was not friendly. I told him it was our first time there and what would he suggest. He opened up the menu and said "this is seafood, this is fish and this is pasta". Then another server brought me some flatbread,
my husband was not there yet so I ordered a drink and ate the flatbread (5 broken pieces) When he arrived I asked for another little bowl of flatbread and the waiter said it would be a wait, and it was15 minutes we got another. (I wanted my husband to have some flatbread. We got the second one and it was burnt bread, we asked for different one and the waiter said it would be a wait again. We got the 3rd bread bowl when we were almost done eating. We couldn't  use our groupon on their daily specials or promotions. My husband ordered Shrimp Linguini Marinara and he almost choked on the shrimp shells they left on. I might say he got a bowl of pasta and very little shrimp. (they swam through it) The tables looked dirty and the place looked very old. We called the manager and he said he would take 50% off. We said ok, but as the manager and the waiter walked away I heard the waiter say "Oh they have a groupon they already are getting 50% off" so then the manager went back on his word and gave us only $5.00 off.  What a rip-off. The menus were dirty and had water and drink stains on them and also we had two different menus. Also they were out of snow crab.
I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone.
Poor management.
I couldn't wait to get out.
Bob Chins and Joe's Crab Shack are much better.
