I love the garlic Dungeness crabs. It is everything I need. It is definitely garlicky but at least no vampire will come near you. If you got a significant other that loves you no matter what, get those crabs and they will kiss you anyways....Read More
Dinner$50–100Atmosphere: 4Up to 10 minIndoor dining area, Outdoor patio / terracePlenty of parkingFree parking lotAdditional gravel parking is available. Parking spots closer to the restaurant is asphalt.Children’s menu is available, kids can color and draw on the table cover or on the kids’ menu. High chairs are available. Crab mallets are used to celebrate birthdays/special occasions so the noise level can be a little high for babies or kids who are sensitive to loud noises. For others, it’s fun to join in and bang their mallets together!
