Soooo yummy!!! I am incredibly surprised how good this place is! Service was fantastic! I ordered snow crab and shrimp and my server was able to break them for me. She was so patient and helpful. The pan sauce with seafood is 10/10! Its incredibly flavorful and the serving is HUGE. I recommend you share the meal. When you walk in, the place is quiet and its a great place to enjoy cajun inspired food at a great cost. I look forward to coming back! read more

We stopped by The Crab Station after our original spot was too packed. The place is clean, inviting, and has a great patio with lights perfect for outdoor dining. Service was excellent and our beers stayed cold all night. We ordered crawfish with "shazaam" seasoning, a Caribbean platter, and snow crab legs. The crawfish were big and well-cooked but lacked the spice and seasoning I expected. The crab legs were good but had a Caribbean jerk flavor I didn't love . I prefer a spicy Cajun style. We also ordered the garlic noodles, noodles were overcooked and lacked flavor. Overall, nice place and great service, but I probably wouldn't go back. Still worth trying if you want different seasoning options for your seafood. read more

THERE WASNT A LINE!! My parents were craving CRAVING oysters and this place hit the spot!! I would say I'm being generous with the stars, I'd give it a 3.8! The service was AMAZING. Very attentive and sweet. We had the calamari as our appetizer and honestly, too much breading. Oysters tasted good, it don't hit the same as New Orleans but we also in Texas haha! They were pretty decent sized though. The char-boiled oysters had some garlic to it, similar to Alfredo sauce! The bread that came with it was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Of course we had someone who doesn't eat seafood with us so we got some wings, they were lemon pepper wings. And we got a shrimp boil that was actually spicy!! read more

Oysters at this particular location are the absolute best! Charbroiled or raw, really good! No long wait and very clean! read more

A hidden or not so hidden gem. Their more popular dishes are the blatant boils . They look and smell delish! I ordered the calamari which was cooked to perfection. No chewiness at all. It was lightly breaded and fluffy. This was followed by a cold lobster roll which is perfect in this Tx heat. I will be returning soon. To try more. read more

This place is pretty good to go to if you go on their special nights for live crawfish. I recommend snacking on the Cajun fries as a good appetizer. We got the Original sauce for the crawfish and the seasonings/flavors were excellent. The oysters themselves were fresh and quite large servings. To me, the lobster roll was a little too rich and unfortunately the lobster itself was slightly over cooked. Overall this place is a good place to go when crawfish is in season. read more

First time at crab station for dinner. We usually go to red claws for sea food boils but we wanted something different and something closer to home. The boil was ok. Definitely better at red claws. The cat fish was good. Just ok. The lobster roll was pretty good but it's almost 30$ and it's pretty small. Shrimp cocktail was great. It was great for a big party we didn't have to wait long on a Saturday! Good ambiance. The service was pretty good. They took good care of us. It's not the best place for seafood but I'd like to try some other things before I give a bad review. I'd go back! read more

The Crab Station is located in a plaza full of Asian restaurants. It was hard to pick which one to eat at! You'll get a bib, a condiment container, and a bucket for shells. The strawberry margarita was huge and delicious. We had: -the killer calamari -shrimp, crab legs: The garlic butter sauce is the only non-spicy option so that's why we went with it, but it was a bit boring. The size of both were more than satisfying. The crab was also easy to crack open. -oysters: Overwhelmingly huge. I would've enjoyed it more if it came with mignonette sauce. -cajun and sweet potato fries -chef's bread pudding: best item on the menu I would come back for the above and also to give their "Weak Sauce" a try. They also play great pop/r&b music. Make sure you come hungry. read more

The 4 is there instead of a 3 because the servers were very nice ! Tuesday 2:00 pm Happy hour March 2023 Ordered happy hour margaritas (regular frozen at first; then mango). $6. Ordered the triple Cajun tacos (blackened catfish, chicken, shrimp) they come with a type of pico on them, and there are sides of ketchup, cocktail sauce, and tarter sauce. $13-$14 My friend ordered the same, and oysters. (6) Charbroiled. Back to the tacos: the chicken one was good. If I reordered this entree, I would do chicken tacos only. The blackened catfish was a 2/5 if you added the tarter sauce. The shrimp- bland. Maybe 1.5/5. It needed the cocktail sauce. The space, medium sized. Not too loud. Not too crowded. Would I return? Yes, but no time read more

Came here Saturday with friends and I got the a pound of mussels and a pound of shrimp. The mussels were by far my favorite and they were huge! I also appreciate that this place has a non-alcoholic drink menu and the mango limeade i got was TASTY. There was one gentleman who was not our server and he constantly filled our waters, and our waiter would check on us from time to time. I would say good team work. I wont take a star away, but the restaurant needs to clean their humidifier, as it smelt like it had mold. read more

Excellent food and excellent service reside in this location. We had 6 in our party and choose to do family style so we could try a variety of dishes and with various spice levels. All of the food was hot fresh and delicious. The ghost pepper sauce is definitely one to remember got quite so time. I gave 4 stars because the bathroom is gross. I can't say enough how important it is to have someone keep this area clean. Other than that I'd say we would definitely come back. read more

This place is contending for one of my favorite crawfish spots. I ordered the original flavor which is like a mild spice level, but I tasted the level 3 (extra Shazam) from a friends order and it was delicious! It added the right amount of kick without being overpower. It was spicy but you still got plenty of flavor. They're shrimp and lobster linguini and they calamari are also good. I usually go here for seafood boil, but I need to venture out and order their other seafood options. Also, they do offer a $5 margarita with checkin on Yelp, but I would skip it. It's very tart in my option. I would try the hurricane. It's not too strong or too sweet. read more

Great food & great service. They also give out quality gloves, bibs, & tools I just wish there was more flavor as you increase the spice level. My family & I just honestly feel the burn...but still yummy overall. Keep in mind that it's just a little bit more expensive than similar other places in the area, but it's definitely a great place for seafood. Will come again!

The crawfish with that butter sauce was absolutely delicious. So delicious I went back and grabbed some for my mom a week later. The crawfish are nice sized and just cooked to perfection. I'm not a suck the head type of person but I literally licked the whole crawfish and sucked the juice off of it. It was so dang good!! read more

Finally got to try the crab station this weekend and it was super delicious. I got the snow crab legs with sausage in original sauce. The sauce was very delicious. You can really taste the garlic in the sauce and it was slightly sweet which was tasty paired with a squeeze of lemon and butter! The prices for seafood have gone up quite a bit of course but I love it so much idc lol My fiancé got garlic noodles with lobster. They liked the noodles but said the lobster was slightly over cooked and dry. The margarita was really good and I got a discount for checking in on Yelp! I definitely plan to go back and try and more items with different sauces. Overall I had a great experience and our waiter was really nice and helpful. read more

If you are craving a good Viet-Cajun Seafood boil, you have come to the right place. This is one of my fave spots to go to in the DFW area. They have the best snow crab clusters and shrimp, and when crawfish is in season- it's absolutely amazing! I love to get the Shazam- which is second to the spiciest. For those of you spiciest lovers, be careful with their spiciest level- my lips were swollen. For those of you who like happy hours, they do have specials- I believe they are from 3-6 pm and even are over the weekend. They have a fully stocked bar with cool drinks. For those of you who aren't seafood lovers, they have a build-your-own gumbo bar and other options on their menu like wings (which are really good) The service has always been good and they are pretty attentive. read more

I went here solely for the reason that I was searching for a lobster roll in dfw for a long time. Did some searching and found this place. Online it had an epic picture of the wagyu cheeseburger as well. I went there and although the warm lobster roll tasted pretty good, for $25 it was VERY small. I know lobster is expensive but that's why I paid $25 for it. I think I finished it in 5 bites. Dont get me started on the "wagyu cheeseburger". I asked for medium and it came out well done. Dried and no flavor. Looked nothing like the picture on their website. 0/10 on the burger. Don't get it. read more

i visited with a group of 6 and we came late on a sunday night and there was still a 30 min wait. luckily there were several large groups that left all at the same time so we actually only waited about 15 minutes or so. they have a buy 4lbs get 1 free special for the crawfish which was perfect. we also got a pound of mussels, shrimp, wings, and 1/2 dozen oysters. if you check in through Yelp, there's a $5 margarita check-in offer!! food was great and the crawfish was still large! overall the food was great. the service on the other hand...first it took forever for the waiter to come over and take our order, then they kept forgetting multiple things that we asked for. our ranch for the wings, waters, i ordered a mango margarita and received a regular flavored one, extra lemons, etc. we asked how long it would take for the crawfish to come out and they were like 5 min! ...15 minutes later we asked for them to check on our food :/ food was good, but had the service been better i think we would've enjoyed our visit much more. read more

My husband and I enjoyed going to the Crab Station with our large group (14 guests total). We appreciate that the restaurant was able to accommodate for all of us given how small the interior is (they pushed all the tables together), and also by how flexible they were to providing extra seating if we needed. The food was delicious with spices that were well blended, and their margarita was awesome! Just the right amount of alcohol to flavoring. We'll definitely be coming back again for more group get togethers. read more

Came here a couple times and each time was a good experience except once I came during a time crawfish season just ended and they told us they used frozen crawfish and it was just bad and old and the crawfish meat stuck to the shell ( which is usualy a sign it's not good) so I would never get frozen seafood if I were you. It's more a 3.5 stars because that one time with the frozen crawfish was just horrible. I definitely like the shrimp and crab legs here and would reccomend those for sure! Get the extra shazam sauce its perfect!! Little spicy but great flavor! They have a hh too but I havent been yet so I might try that another time ! read more

*I changed the rating because they replaced this meal, but I wanted to keep the review so that you guys are aware* My wife and I absolutely love this place, however we had no idea their bags are not oven safe. We wasted $100 and we didn't even get to enjoy our food. My wife let out a yelp when she realized the plastic melted. It's actually a great joy to eat here and we often warm our crab and shrimp in the oven when we prepare it at home in oven bags. It was very disappointing to experience this. It is a treat for us to come here but now the hundred dollars we just spent went down the drain. I would love to receive a refund because we were never informed not to place these bags in the oven because we always eat there but today was an exception due to me recently having surgery. This was just sad and terrible. I'd love to give 5 stars but we just feel so sad at the moment. read more

I finally got a chance to go to the crab station, in Carrollton. I ordered the seafood gumbo, witch was with shrimp/ crab meat& sausages.

The ambiance was very simple, but very cozy, with a small bar. If you are interested in fresh seafood, I suggest you google their location in Carrollton& pay them a visit.

A few of my girlies and I came to visit Dallas area for the weekend and wanted some seafood boil. We came here on a Sunday a little after opening. We were greeted and seated right away. Wasn't busy when we were there but later on got a bit more packed an hour in. Ambiance of the place was cool and they played 90s and 2000s music..all throwbacks! Of course that's our vibe because we're 90s babies! Our waiter was friendly and super helpful. He gave us suggestions and was also a great bartender. Super attentive for refills and to change up our shell trash buckets. We ordered 2 bags of 1 lb each of crawfish, headed shrimp, boiled eggs, corn, and potatoes with the Original sauce and it was 9/10. Crawfish were big in size and sauce was delicious but did need a little bit of something for my liking. Still overall tasty and would get again. Other foods we ordered were: Charbroiled oysters; came out sizzling and hot and it was good 9/10. Lobster roll; buttery and savory; 8/10. Cajun Fries; crispy and flavorful 10/10 Mango Limemade; tart and just right; 10/10. This fed 4 of us and was just the right amount to be satisfied. This was a good place for seafood boil. read more

So good that we went here twice (and we were only in Dallas for three days)! Maybe we'll actually try their seafood boil one of these days, but we were full from just oysters and wings. We got a dozen oysters per person both times we were there. They were large and fresh, and they came out fast! There were plenty of lime wedges and accompaniments for the platter and lots of ceviche on each oyster. We also got garlic parmesan wings and Saigon wings. The garlic parmesan sauce is amazing so ask them to make the wings extra saucy. The Saigon wings are also delicious- just beware, they are pungent from the fish sauce! Awesome happy hour- love it when happy hour is pretty much all day and includes Fridays. Margaritas are huuge. Free bread pudding on your birthday! read more

Nasty as hell. No flavor what so ever. Needs seasoning and didn't have a freshness to it.

The Crab Station is my go to crawfish spot in DFW. The sauce for the crawfish is the perfect amount of garlic and butter mixed with spices and peppers. Currently, the live crawfish is $9/lb. What I love about The Crab Station is that they have so many options for food! From their appetizers to entrees. I've had their spicy edamame, crab claws, wings, and oysters. All of which were good! On this last visit, we tried some of their chowder which was amazing. They've extended their drink selection which is great! I love that they sell sake, and for $14-$16 a bottle, you're getting a great deal for alcohol! I've never had any complaints about the service I've received here. This time, they were even more attentive. Big shout out to the manager, Anthony, for making sure we had all of our needs! read more
