Red Crab is a seafood boil restaurant at 5370 W 34th St, Houston, TX 77092, centered on generously portioned seafood served with bold seasoning and sauce options. The menu focuses on crab, shrimp, crawfish, lobster, scallops, catfish and other seafood, with individual items and combination meals suited to different appetites.

Seafood boils are a central part of the menu. Diners can pair seafood selections with Cajun seasoning or choose sauces built around garlic butter, lemon pepper or the restaurant’s Juicy Special blend. The flavor profile ranges from buttery and rich to tangy, savory and spicy, with heat levels available for guests who prefer a stronger kick. Cajun seasoning gives the menu a Southern-style character, while the butter-based sauces offer a different approach to the seafood.

The menu includes familiar choices such as snow crab legs, Dungeness crab, shrimp, crawfish, lobster tails and catfish. Seafood combos create room for mixing several items in one meal, while a single seafood selection can suit diners looking for a more focused order. Boil-style dishes are a natural fit for casual meals shared among family or friends, and the generous portions give the restaurant a substantial, relaxed dining style.

Red Crab has a lively restaurant setting and also supports pickup and delivery. The venue’s ordering options make it suitable for a range of occasions, from a casual dine-in meal to seafood brought home for a group. A full seafood-focused menu, customizable seasoning and sauce choices, and the option to adjust the spice level give diners several ways to shape an order.

The restaurant welcomes guests from midday through the evening, with later closing hours from Friday through Sunday. Its location on West 34th Street places it within Houston’s 77092 ZIP code, with parking noted among the venue’s conveniences. Red Crab suits seafood fans who enjoy Cajun flavors, butter-based sauces and boil-style meals with a choice of heat.
