Chubby Crab - Asian Wok & Cajun Kitchen

Best price for seafood boil! It’s not a fancy sit down place but you will get dirty eating anyway. No gimmicks, just good food for good price. Heating while dining can be tricky coz it’s a small sit down area and when someone comes in you will feel the chill from outside. Dress warm if coming in winter. Or order to go but I don’t wanna clean up at home and I want to eat the seafood boil hot, so we always just dress warm if coming in the winter.

I spontaneously came here with friends and my boyfriend. We had an amazing experience. We tried the seafood sampler and it was absolutely delicious. I tried the Juicy Special sauce with mild spice, and it was so good. For anyone wondering, the Juicy Special is a little bit of all the sauces combined—trust me, it’s delicious ❤️ I 100% recommend this place. The service was great and the ambience was perfect—small, cozy, and ideal for enjoying a seafood boil. Definitely stop by if you’re nearby, or make it a point to come one day just for the food. Just FYI be aware that the mussels have barnacles if you care for that🤭

Chubby Crab – Chinatown, NYC Don’t let the disheveled, out-of-the-way appearance fool you – the seafood here is spectacular. The Cajun spicy seafood boil bursts with flavor, and the lobster was moist, tender, and absolutely delicious. After a long flight, this was the perfect reward and a wonderful welcome back to the one-of-a-kind energy of New York City. The value is incredible, especially considering it is in the Big Apple. I will absolutely be back and I recommend this one to all seafood Aficionados in my favorite US city🇺🇸🗽🦞

The day I went the owner happened to be working in the front and he was really nice. The restaurant is quite small, there are only a few tables but the place is clean and welcoming. I got a build your own seafood boil, the seafood is sold per lb or ½lb and is, flavourful and fresh. I don't really understand lbs because I use the metric system in 2026 like most of the world ... 😏 I definitely accidentally ordered too much but I took the rest back to my hotel and ate it the next day. I really enjoyed my meal and I'm definitely going back before I fly back home.

I ordered the shrimp and they did not clean their shrimp. All of them still had poop in them 🤢 I took a bite of one before I saw it and I will say the part without poop does taste good but how could they not wash their shrimp… maybe my order was an outlier but for all of them to be like that is something for sure
