What Alana Wiegand doesn't like about The Holy Crab:
Had the crawfish yesterday, as I never had them before. Don't bother..Most of the body is the head and stomach. They were small. Hardly any meat. Ordered the shrimp, which are excellent, just to have a proper meal. There was a choice of frozen or fresh (for a higher price). A seafood restaurant should have only fresh. Offer crawfish as a special when they come in fresh. View all feedback. What Patrick Hogan likes about The Holy Crab:
The Holy Crab is a Louisiana-inspired seafood restaurant offering the opportunity to experience a cajun seafood boil and other delicious creatures from the sea. The food was enjoyable and as a person that doesn’t eat seafood regularly I actually enjoyed myself and was full by the end and that was from eating the sea food. View all feedback.

I do not want to remove my first post as this was my original experience; however, I want to write a continuation as to what has happened since.

The Holy Crab restaurant in Vancouver's Robson food district offers an authentic Louisiana-style seafood experience that is messy, fun, and delicious. While some diners were disappointed with the crawfish main course, others enjoyed the fresh and flavorful options like boiled clams, mussels, shrimp, and crab. From the soft shell crab to the Cajun fries and corn, patrons can't stop raving about the amazing flavors and generous portions. The service is friendly and attentive, making for a great overall dining experience. Make sure to reserve a table on weekends as the restaurant gets packed with satisfied customers from all over the lower mainland. Don't forget your bib and gloves - it's time to dive into some mouthwatering shellfish at The Holy Crab.

Casual space. Shrimp boil was excellent with yam fries. Great garlic pepper sauce. Corn was very much unrecommended- gray and over cooked. Good beer.
