True Fitzroy gem! Came here for lunch and really loved the decor & theme. Most importantly though, the food was really really good. We ordered the clam chowder which was perfect for a cold wet Melbourne day - the mussels & clams were delicious. We also ordered the spicy fried prawns which were packed with flavour. But the real highlights for me were the crab slider crab meat was beautiful, the prawn roll and flavour packed crab tostada which in hindsight, I would’ve order multiple of as it was that good! Will definitely be back here again.
Quality of food was great, portion size was a little small. Staff were friendly and polite. Was sitting inside at the back where there was a cold draught coming through. Inside venue is very photogenic, plenty of interesting things to take photos of.
3.5 stars. Mixed reviews and my experience confirmed was simply above average and nothing special. I visited in 2017 and saw some of my old photos so doing the review only now! Food quality: Seafood didn’t taste the freshest, above average for sure but not more than that. Food portion / Price: Portions are in line with average and prices are as expected in the city!
First time here, usually looks busy at night times. The service was a bit slow, it took the servers a bit of time to get to us and it wasnt a super busy night. We got two crab boils, the fried chicken, the add on mussels and some cheesy fries. The fried chicken was tasty, however, you received three very different sizes of chicken and for $15 seemed a bit steep. The crab tasted okay, was nice with the add-on sauces you could purchase 3 for $5. The mussels weren't bad either. Overall, a good experience and somewhere I would go back to.
Kinda pricey for what we ordered and got, however the quality of the food redeems it. The service is welcoming and friendly although sorta uninformative to the point that we felt we were being taken for a ride. Ordered oysters which were fresh & sweet. Always a good sign. Had prawn cocktail which we didn't intend to order as we wanted the prawn in a bucket special we didn't know the latter existed as we were only handed the standard menu the prawn cocktail while nice was exorbitant at 16 dollars for a mouthful or three. Oysters also are oddly priced. 1 for 4, 6 for 26.. Next we had crab and funny enough we only ordered 1 but 2 came. They had a bit of a deal where the first was 35 dollars and second was 25 This price was the market price so it variates. The inconvenience made us go through 2 crabs and our initial plan was to add more to the order if we were hungry, so some miscommunication existed there. I ordered a pot of Kona Bigwave which was delicious.. But I got a pint. Luckily wasn't driving so I didn't put up a stink, that said keep an eye out. All in all bill came to just under 100 for two. The restaurant deffo had great atmosphere and from when we visited and had a tracks playing in the background and an eclectic amount of things that were on shelves and wall making it interesting. Again service was welcoming & friendly just had points that could have been improved on. On that note I can understand the efficiency however I didn't exactly appreciate when I was given the bill mid way between demolishing a crab and butter was everywhere. All in all we'll we might have another visit if we feel the need for crab boil in our lives but next time we'll be looking out for the special menu and reconfirm what we order.
Revised April 2019: Came to the store and tried the exact same meals, the chicken and waffles and crab boil. This time around the meal was at a good eating temperature, not boiling hot and not cold. Portion size was good. 3 spuds, 2 pieces of corn, chorizo and a full crab. Thechicken waffles were same as last time. The batter outside was extremely dark but the meat was still juicy inside. Overall I enjoyed the dine in experience over the delivery. Service friendly and we left feeling full. ...................................................................................... My experience is based on having our meals delivered so eating in the restaurant might be a different experience. Portion size it's not huge but what's included are good quality ingredients. Accessing the crab meat is fiddly and a pain in the butt but what would you expect from a swimmer crab? Flavour wise it's not bad. The butter sauce compliments the crab well. It did come cold though, not sure if thats the fault of the delivery time or that's how it's normally served. Chicken and waffles were ok. Nothing outstanding but I assume again it'll be better dining in. We revise review once i have a chance to dine in.
A must try in Fitzroy regardless of whether you like crabs or not. The restaurant is famous for their crab boil which I'd highly recommend and it also runs specials we had a scallop chowder. The interior decor is lovely and unique, and it's as if it were trying to convince you that you are inside a submarine or a boat. Overall a lovely place to dine at with friendly staff.
A good range of southern style food, cocktails and beers. Thankfully they have plenty of food options other than crab and seafood. The fried chicken was great hot and fresh, and the beer was icy cold! The Bloody Mary oyster shot was pretty awesome too. The dining area was well kept, staff were happy and helpful, the food came out quickly and all at the same time which was good.
We had a nice time at Katie’s Crab Shack. The seafood was really yummy, we ordered the special Spanner Crab. There was plenty of buttery sauce. The sausage was delicious. The service was pretty good. The place was a little cold. But otherwise, a nice meal with nice cocktails.
Seafood tastes fresh, good service, good fried chicken. The butter sauce on the seafood is good. Drinks compliment the food well, nice courtyard in the back. There's a really nice feel to the place. The tables could be a bit bigger though.
