Crab House is well-known for its world-famous “Killer Crab®” (2lb+ whole Dungeness Crab roasted in a secret garlic sauce served on a sizzling iron skillet) as well as favorites like shrimp & mussel skillets, garlic noodles, crab fried rice and crab chowder. If you love crab, this is THE place. Guests rave about the cozy circular firepit, upbeat music, the sound of sizzling skillets, and an irresistible garlic aroma throughout the dining room. Hot skillets keep crustaceans warm as you crack open and devour tender meaty bites – but you’ll depart clean thanks to complimentary bibs and moist towelettes. This lively cozy restaurant is ideal for date night, friends night out or family gathering. Located upstairs on PIER 39, tucked away from the crowds, the dining room featuring breath-taking views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz and Fisherman’s Wharf.
