Who said we don't have authentic Chinese restaurants in the north. The Crab House in Broomfield is a hidden gem and probably one of the best tasting Chinese restaurants in town. Most foodies only know it as a popular Cajun seafood restaurant in the area, but what makes this place sparkle is actually its Chinese menu. The chef used to be the executive chef of five star hotels in China and primarily only prepare the Chinese menu for the true connoisseurs. To be exact, they specialize in the Huaiyang and Sichuan cuisines. For foodies who know how the different dishes taste in China, they would not be disappointed here. For foodies who want to taste authentic Chinese cuisine, then you cannot miss this restaurant. Here are their vegetable fried rice, triple delight and hot & spicy chicken. The Crab House is about three minutes from the Great Wall Supermarket.

I loved this place! As a huge seafood boil person I loved the crab and shrimp here. Awesome sauce I recommend the All in one, it was clean, good decor and awesome customer service! Even brought us extra gloves and napkins without us asking. This is a great experience for anyone who needs a phone break because you simply cannot use your phone. The "Colorado bulldog" drink was a very good pick me up if you like espresso martinis. 10/10

Pretty good, margaritas were cheap but not strong. The sea food was pretty good, but messy. Definitely more of a sea food boil place. Of course they gave gloves and bibs. My family enjoyed going.

This seafood restaurant is simply outstanding! Top-notch service, great atmosphere, and delicious food. Highly recommend!

I like this place, though I'm a bit concerned that it never appears to be busy enough to stay around. That said, we are lucky to have a local seafood boil restaurant nearby and so I recommend that people check it out! I like the extra spicy sauce. I am a spicy food aficionado and by the end of the meal my nose is starting to run - perfect! The seafood is fresh and hot, the waitstaff are prompt and friendly and they provide enough extras to make a messy meal less so. I like the sauce so much that I usually get mussels so that I can use the shells to scoop it up like a soup! Highly recommended!

Interesting new restaurants that pop up in the Westminster area always pique my interest, and The Crab House was a new addition to the location - I'm a big fan of cajun and seafood flavors, and Westminster isn't super know for having seafood restaurants, so I was definitely excited to try this place out! I've been to the Crab House on two separate occasions, so I think I have a decent holistic view of this restaurant. The restaurant isn't very busy on my two visits (a Saturday and a Sunday around 7pm), so there isn't a wait time and you're likely to get seated almost immediately if you decide to stop by. The service is fast around the times I have visited, and after ordering, you should receive your food in about 5-15 minutes. As other reviews have mentioned, the decorations and interior are a bit corny for a seafood restaurant, but I think it gives this place a certain whimsical charm. I've been able to try the Combos and Po'Boys which I'll review down below: Seafood Boil Combo ($53): The boil comes out to a decent size - split between four people, may be a bit underwhelming since the boil is mostly shellfish and looks to be more than it actually is. Since it is a boil, you get some gloves and a bib to put on, just be prepared to get messy. I thought the flavor was pretty tasty! We got the All In One sauce, which I thought had a nice and tangy garlic flavor with a decent and warming heat. There are also halved Yukon potatoes, headless shrimp, and corn cobs underneath the seafood - these really soak up the sauce. For $53, it is decent given the amount and variety of seafood that you can get here. Shrimp Po'Boy ($11): Similar to the boil combo, it is a little bit underwhelming since the sandwich was a bit smaller than I expected, you only get like 4-5 pieces of shrimp in your sandwich - but the shrimp was fried nicely and the sandwich was hot coming out. There isn't a lot of sauce on the shrimp, so you may feel like you are wanting a bit more dimension to the sandwich. Overall, I thought it was a decent place to fix your cajun/seafood craving in the Wesminster and Broomfield area - you'll probably spent around $11 - $25 for a decent meal here. Though next time, I would just stick with the boil as it seems like what they are best at here.
