More 50 cent wings! Reminds Lynn of Wings N Things.Much like The Boat House, The Boiling Crab is another no frills, Asian meets Canjun seafood place. $3 Crab Poppers are piping hot when they come out, light fried breading with a creamy filling. $4 Sausage Sliders taste fine but are a bit underwhelming. $1 oysters seem fresh enough but aren't too big. The prices can't be beat and there's a decent selection on tap! Or at least, I might sneak in after work for some grub before Lynn gets home! *update* happy hour visit With an excellent happy hour and daily specials, we might find ourselves here quite often. We've only sampled two items from the menu but there's more we need to try. It's always great when new restaurants open up in Mira Mesa, especially since we won't have to venture far for good eats. You have to break it apart and mash it into the sauce. The sausages were nice and give the meal some contrast. I'm sure Lynn and my mom grabbed them all before I could get to them!Įven though it's just a side, the corn was surprisingly yummy. Unfortunately the potato was the least interesting since the sauce didn't penetrate past the skin. This is a sampler so I can't really complain. For some reason I don't recall eating any clams. The shrimp were decently sized too though you have to break the shell yourself. Mussels were tasty but not enough in quantity. I can't recall the last time I had crawfish but it's just like how I remember - too much trouble for so little meat! It tasted great but I'll probably have to pass next time. The Snow Crab legs are something I'm usually more accustomed to so nothing out of the extraordinary for me. Usually I'd break the shell and eat a section at a time but the meat on these stayed intact while sliding out of the shells. The King Crab legs were huge and simple to eat. The broth started out just right but slowly my mouth began to feel the spices. The only downside of course is that it is all flavored the same since it is all cooked together.

This entree includes 'King Crab Leg, Snow Crab Cluster, Shrimp, Crawfish, Mussels, Clams, Potatoes, Corn on the Cob and Sausages mixed in Crab Hut's addictive Full House Sauce.' The bag doesn't look that big but once you start going at it for a while you'll realize just how much there really is.Īll items were pretty good. I recommend getting a bowl of rice so that you can take advantage of the sauce at the bottom of the bag.

They also give you a bib and latex gloves if you don't want to get messy.ĭon't know what to order? Get the Seafood Bucket! An incredible variety of seafood that feeds two to three people and makes for a great sampler. But one thing you can do is dip the wings into the lemon and salt and pepper mix for a different kind of flavor.

In the end, I preferred the wings without the hot sauce. Our waitress was kind enough to bring a side of the sauce for me to dip it in. Unfortunately for me, I came to this restaurant with two people who did not enjoy spicy food and I had to get the regular wings.

These light and crispy wings are not really that meaty but still a good size for an appetizer. On Wednesdays there is a chicken wing special for fifty cents per wing. It's a large space and they filled it with interesting props and art. They did a great job decorating this place. There's even a person standing by to shuck oysters fresh right there for you! Select oysters are $1 each during happy hour and all day Tuesdays!Īn octopus battling a whale? Who will win?! My stomach that's who. Oyster bar on the back half of the drink bar. This place has plenty of seating and cheap $3 craft beer specials during happy hour (M-F 2-6). There are not that many restaurants in the Mira Mesa area that have a full liquor bar. From what we've been told, it was much busier on the first day. The place was packed when we went this past Wednesday. Crab Hut in Mira Mesa is finally open! My family has been waiting for this place to open for quite a while and they've been asking me to go with them since their soft opening a week ago.
