What User doesn't like about The Crab King:
This was one of the worse fish n chips I ever had in my life. They went overboard on the grease and batter. Also, my wife got the caesar salad and they gave her the worse part of the lettuce. It was all one colour. View all feedback. What User likes about The Crab King:
We liked this place so much we went there twice, first time on a Saturday and once again today. My sister had the poutines with crab meat we had the fish. The slaw was delicious, the price is very reasonable. The place was very clean, staff exceptionally friendly and efficient. They certainly knew the answer to all our questions. The only flaw was the toilet had a few issues. View all feedback.

First visit was super busy so we decided take out and ordered halibut and prawn with fries sooooo good.

Amazing food and amazing atmosphereThe view is beautiful because the restaurant is actually on the water and so you can see the docked boats.

We went last year and to this day I still drool over the crabs at the crab king.

The Crab King in Steveston offers a unique dining experience with an assortment of seafood dishes. While some visitors were left disappointed by the lack of traditional options and flavors, others found the food to be delicious and generous in portion size. The atmosphere was quiet and service was quick, making it an enjoyable stop for seafood lovers. Prices were a bit high, but still reasonable for the quality of food provided. Overall, the Crab King seems to be hit or miss depending on individual tastes and expectations.

Would not go back nasty greasy. Total disappointment. Should have gone anywhere else. The food had a bad smell too

Went there for fish and chips thinking a seafood place on the water would be great. We ordered clam chowder and it tasted bland like flour, the seafood pieces w...

This spot provides a good atmosphere on the water with nice view of the boats and harbour. But the food is average. We had crab salads — nice but rather mediocr...
