About Lestardo's Crab House

The "SEA-food is outstanding!" with the "crab bisque" being particularly praised as "💯," leading one customer to order a bowl to go. A server named Cole is highlighted as "😎 & extremely helpful with making selections."

While the "stuffed flounder" was considered "good," one reviewer preferred to "stick to the Crabs bc I'm not a huge waste."

It's like your favorite local bar. The SEA-food is outstanding! The crab bisque is 💯... I ordered a bowl to go before leaving. Cole was my server and she's 😎 & extremely helpful with making selections. It was Valentines Day, so the food took a very long time to come out that's why not 5 stars for service. There's no gloves or anything to cover your outfit, so bring your own or dress down. There were random folks yelling out and no one blinked, so the environment is a total chill-vibe, jeans and t-shirt with your old worn Uggs. Best sauce is the Cajun garlic, it's not spicy it's perfect. I also had the stuffed flounder which was good but I'll stick to the Crabs bc I'm not a huge waste. Writing about the deliciousness is making wanna go back ASAP! I think I'm gonna do just that!

Had a family gathering there eating bushels of crabs 🦀. Seafood was really good. My favorite was their pretze l with crab meat. Fried shrimp 🍤 was good, and their whole crabs 🦀 were seasoned, perfect and juicy. The service was excellent.

I love supporting this local family owned business. The customer service from the owners is always appreciated, the seafood is easy fresh. They value quality and never have things in the menu that are out of season or not to standard. The dining room could use a face lift, but then again you’re eating crabs 🦀

This Place Hold The Crazy stuff… I paid $40 and I tipped five dollars to this company just for them to give me 1/2 of the snow crab legs with three out of the five legs missing and then the other side was missing one or two legs as well. I could’ve took that money and got two full clusters if not, three or more from the supermarket for $45. I wouldn’t waste my money here. I don’t care if anybody’s offended by it go spend your money if you want to. look at the picture. And as you can see, this is the only crabs that I broke in the thing how is it a full crab and this is all that I got out of the order and their crab soup is watery is all hell and nasty. It’s like tomato soup adjacent like someone drop two points of tomato flavor out of 100 don’t waste Your money with these people I wouldn’t recommend anything let alone direct anybody to come to g to these people ….. It’s a nasty work tub, intentionally break off crab legs for them to fit in the amount. You could’ve asked me if I wanted to pay more because they weigh more. And the person on the phone had the nerve to want to charge me 299 for this little container of sauce
