Truthfully, I go for their crepes, but my friends are always bey happy with their other menu choices too. The staff is friendly and we never feel rush to eat & leave. This isn't a place you need to really dress up to feel you fit in. However, you also could if the mood suits you & still not feel out of place. Truly, I am happy that they even have tables on the main level that accommodate those with mobility aids. However, that being said, I am struggling to recall if there would be a easy enough way for a wheelchair or even a walker to make it to the main door. I'll have to remember to focus on that long enough before my next crepe eating bliss hits. As Cowichan Bay is a popular area to stop for meals, do plan to go in advance for parking. As even if there are a few spots for the restaurant, there isn't enough space to accommodate the full restaurant. If you are able to find a spot at the restaurant or are double parking at the restaurant (which is apparently allowed), it is good to let the server know what vehicle is yours. Beyond more than mention "I've parked my vehicle here", so a server can notify you if people need to be let out of the space if they're leaving before you're done. If you don''re not lucky enough to grab a parking spot right at the restaurant, you might have to go far up the road (sometimes almost to the hotel) or down the road (towards the parking area by the pubic washrooms) to reach any parking options. Definitely try it out if you are looking fit an option in Cowichan Bay. I know I'm looking forward to many more future happy crepe eating moments here with friends.

The service was ok, not stellar, but certainly adequate. The food was pretty good. My husband had the fish tacos and loved them. I had the Katsu Chicken Bowl. The Bowl wasn't as good as the tacos. It was badly under seasoned. The chicken was quite dry and overcooked too. All in all it was quite bland. I wouldn't order this again. Our friends had the Miso Salmon and the Bison Spaghettini. Both of them enjoyed their food. If I return to Cowichan Bay I'd consider going again but skipping the Katsu Bowl.

From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by the hostess, who was incredibly friendly and accommodating. I didn't have a reservation, but she still found a table for me without any issue. My waitress was absolutely amazing--attentive, welcoming, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. I ordered the clam chowder, the steak, and a cocktail called the Guava Fizz. Every bite (and sip!) was delicious. I'm honestly surprised by the poor service reviews, because my experience was fantastic from start to finish. If you've been hesitant to try this place because of what you've read, don't be--I had nothing but great service and great food. I'll definitely be back! The views are also amazing!

And while there are no shortage of seafood restaurants serving fresh crab on the Steveston waterfront, we wanted to give The Crab King a fair shake. I'm so glad that we did! My wife ordered a King Crab for herself which, after tearing it literally limb-from-limb, eventually declared it to be tied for her favorite boiled crab dish anywhere! High praise coming from such a consummate crustacean connoisseur! For myself and our son, an order of fish and chips, and the grilled chicken sandwich rounded out our order, both of which were crispy, tasty and delicious. Regarding the fish and chips, they appeared to be tempura-battered, and I'm still not 100% sure what type of fish it was. It may have been cod, but it seemed more like catfish, but either way, it was tender, juicy, flaky and delicious. No complaints here! More than anything, though, the employees here went out of their way to make our experience enjoyable. Our toddler son, who is normally extremely well-behaved in restaurants, was having a bit of a fuss here and there. Without prompting, the servers brought us a little radio to play music for him, as well as a couple of toys to play with, one of them being a wind-up truck that they gave to him to take home! He loved it there, and still plays with it at home! They even played peek-a-boo with him from behind the counter, soliciting laughs and giggles, for the better part of 15 minutes! That sort of customer service is nearly impossible to find, and should be praised and cherished wherever it is found! Whatever the past may have held for this restaurant, the Crab King is an entirely new animal now, serving up fresh seafood by uncommonly wonderful employees, in a fantastic floating location. They even offer to cook spot prawns and other seafood purchased from the boats docked at the nearby waterfront marketplace, for a modest fee. With all these things going for it, there's no doubt who wears the crown of Crab King in Steveston Harbor!

Got some oysters which ended up coming with some bizarre sweet dipping sauce?? I've never seen it before.

Got some fish and steak for our entrees which upon arrival/ my fish dish's sauce got sloshed all over my boyfriend's lap and table which the server was somehow not aware of. Fish was alright and the steak was very overcooked. Honestly nothing against the server, they were very kind. Just either wasn't their day, they felt overwhelmed, or they were knew.
