One of the stars of the Boiling Crab menu is the snow crab legs. These long, slender legs are filled with tender, sweet meat that easily pulls out of the shell. Whether you prefer them drenched in garlic butter or tossed in Boiling Crab’s signature Whole Sha-Bang sauce (a mix of Cajun, lemon pepper, and garlic butter), snow crab legs are a crowd favorite for good reason.

When it comes to indulgence, nothing beats king crab legs. These massive legs are packed with rich, sweet meat that’s firm and satisfying. King crab is often considered the crown jewel of seafood boils because of its sheer size and decadent flavor. At Boiling Crab, king crab legs are served in a variety of sauces, from Cajun spice to garlic butter.

One of the highlights of the Boiling Crab experience is their signature sauce blends. The most famous is the Whole Sha-Bang, which combines garlic butter, lemon pepper, and Cajun spices into a rich, flavorful mix that elevates every bite of seafood. These sauces not only add a layer of flavor but also make the entire dining experience interactive as you crack open crab legs, peel shrimp, and dip everything into the sauce.
Hailing from the West Coast, Dungeness crab is another favorite at Boiling Crab. Known for its rich, sweet, and slightly nutty flavor, Dungeness crab offers meat in both the legs and the body, making it a satisfying choice for any seafood lover. The body meat is tender and flavorful, while the legs offer large pieces of sweet crab meat.

No seafood boil is complete without shrimp. At Boiling Crab, shrimp is served peel-and-eat style, allowing diners to immerse themselves in the experience of peeling and dipping the shrimp into rich sauces. Shrimp’s ability to absorb the flavors of the sauce makes it a standout, especially when paired with corn and potatoes.

Tables are covered with butcher paper, and the seafood is served directly onto the table, encouraging diners to dig in with their hands. Whether you’re cracking open a king crab leg or peeling shrimp, it’s a hands-on experience that brings people together over delicious food.
This interactive style of dining is what sets Boiling Crab apart from other seafood restaurants. The messiness of the meal adds to the fun, making it a memorable experience for families, friends, and seafood lovers alike.
