Excellent Service @ Crab Shack. . Nearly missed out because I didn't have a reservation or a local New Zealand phone number, and the place was fully booked. . After travelling for 12+ hours just to dine here, and be stopped at the door, was incredibly frustrating. Thankfully, staff were willing to accommodate me; I nearly cried for joy. . A big thank you and my deepest appreciation to the staff of Crab Shack Wellington!. . The Shack-Spiced Calamari NZD $17 appetizer features large fresh calamari squid rings, coated in a light all-purpose flour batter, seasoned with salt and pepper. . Has a bouncy chewy texture and mild savoury salty peppery spice flavour, yum. . The Shellfish By The Scoop, Mixed NZD $19 for 500g feature a bucket generously packed with a medley of different shellfish, in your choice of stew. . The Green-Lipped Mussel, juicy and bouncy with mild natural sweet savoury flavour. The Moon Shell Clam, firm and chewy with intense meaty savoury salty flavour. The Diamond Shell Clam, juicy and bouncy with bold salty nutty sweet flavour. . The shellfish, including mussels and clams, were served in my choice of stew; a white wine, garlic, red chili, and cream blend. . The stew was thick and robust, with bright milky floral boozy herbal sweet savoury salty spice flavour, infusing the mussels and clams with good flavour, yet you still taste the natural flavours of the shellfish. Very yummy and enjoyable.
We're pleased to have found this place. We've been on the lookout for a restaurant similar to one of our USA favorites hot n juicy since moving to NZ. We're 2 happy campers. The swimmer crab was delicious and so was the garlic cheese bread dipped in that tomato sauce left over from the crab dip. Mmmm we'll be spreading the word. The vibe was nice and great scenery too. The bonuses was the great service from all staff and good music. You guys are awesome . We'll see y'all again.
Great waterfront setting with equally good food. Cajun catch of the day red snapperwas excellent as were the green mussels and raw fish platter. Reservation is probably needed but we were able to walk in on a Friday night and sit right down. 10 minutes later there was a 30 minute wait.Recommended dishesCajun Catch of the Day
Great seafood options, excellent for entertainment of Asian Clients, recently they even added rice to the menu! Excellent service & high food quality. They dont do bookings so best to be punctual and arrive prior to the busy times if you want a classy table. Thanks CJ
Went in for $1 wings now Thursday, not Wednesday and was very full after ordering ten. I did eat someone else's too but overall very filling and nice! Weren't as spicy as I thought they were be, but sauces made them very tasty. One thing to improve is just the website! It needs an update. According to it, the wings are still on Wednesday and it claims you need to have paid and finished dining before 6pm in order to receive the $1 wings special. Overall a great time! Location adds a lot to the atmosphere and the staff were nice with a good sense of humour.
I stumbled on The Crab Shack quite by chance, and chance absolutely delivered! A relaxing atmosphere, good music playing across the dockside and their outdoor dining space provided welcoming shade from the summer sun. The staff displayed the height of hospitality and the experience was overall faultless. This was the perfect location for a Sunday afternoon lunch on a weekend getaway. P.S. The mussel fritters were absolutely scrumptious!!
Love this place!! Food was 10/10 ..food was served fast. All the crabby tools needed are provided. Service is 10/10. Friendly, fast and on point. And you're only a few steps away from taking a stroll along the beautiful Wellington waterfront. Highly recommend and will definitely be back
Was here for casual Brunch, and had a wonderful time there. The waiters were friendly and food was fantastic and delicious. Definitely recommend the fish and chips here. Coffee here was allright.
Such a cool place! Love the decor and ambience. Staff were helpful and cleared a table that had just been vacated for us. We 4 of us ordered: The Cajun Catch of the Day - quite mild, expected something with a bit of heat. Instead just a sprinkle of Cajun seasoning. But the tuna was cooked perfectly, coleslaw tasty, and the potatoes delicious. The vege fritters - these were tasty and a good sized meal. The jalapeño creme freiche, it would have been nice to have the option to swap this out for something else. Shack Fish Pie - delicious! The Big Wet Willy - this was the most disappointing. The fish IN the burger was delicious as were the chips. However, the rest was below average and went uneaten. The cheese was weird and plastic-like, the tartare sauce was absorbed into the bun rather than being on the fish. The bun was too hard. The maitre d agreed to give a discount on this dish. But overall we loved this restaurant and would definitely be back!
Have been here a few times in the past and usually have enjoyed the experience and the food, On Wednesday the 23rd of March, I went here with four friends to celebrate a friends birthday. We were really looking forward to our dinner. One friend only ordered the shrimp cocktail as her main item. We had to wait over one hour for our food to come, then they brought our Main meal steak before the entree. Two of us ordered shrimp cocktails as an entree, before our main meal which was steak. This is not usual practice that I’ve ever come across when dining out. The shrimp cocktail contains a sauce was too spicy and none of us could eat them. It is not advertised on the menu as containing a spicy dressing. One friend complained to the waitress who completely ignored what she was saying. We also wanted to order an item for desert which we had seen online on the menu but was told it is no longer available and the website hadn’t been updated. All in all, we were dissapointed with our experience, maybe we just struck a bad night, I’m not sure, but we won’t be going back in a hurry !!
