I came here on 2/18. We got seated fast. I got myself steamed crab legs with fries. When I got my food which was about

15-20 minutes later I was happy to eat. When I was eating the bottom of my face was starting to feel red and itchy.

I didn’t think much of it until hours later when I started to experience shortness of breath and a sore throat. I took albuterol and that didn’t work.

I went to the emergency room and they told me I had an epileptic shock from the crab legs. They gave me a shot of an epi pen. The next day I went to see my doctor.

They drew my blood to see what I’m allergic to. When I got the results I was allergic to crab legs, shrimp and lobster so that what caused my allergic reaction.

Although now I have an epi pen for in case of this happening again but the food was good but I have to stay away from those 3 things for a while.

The atmosphere is relaxing. The food is great. The drinks were on point & they surprised me with a delicious chocolate cake with ice cream on top along with a candle singing happy birthday . I had a wonderful experience for the second time there.

These spots in City Island are usually a life- saver to celebrate loved ones if there’s no other place in mind. The food is a bit in the pricier side. However, you do get a decent portion. My server was amazing!

City Island is a Bronx stable in terms of seafood, Crab Shanty being a big factor.

The place is a quaint and charming little restaurant that has both outdoor and insider seating. The outdoor facing the street let you taking in the charm of the island main street.

Pricing is good, actually better then you’ll expect, and once you consider the great food and portions you’ll easily see that it worth it. The combos like Lobster and Shrimp for a little over $20 is insane really.

The staff were pleasant, intensive, and patient. Food came in good time, and the over all vibe was calming and welcoming.

Definitely a place to bring your family on a sleepy weekend at or after going to the beach.

Anytime I’m in NY, I make it a point to stop by Crab Shanty, and last night’s visit did not disappoint. I wasn’t too hungry, but the $35.99 special was more than enough and such a great value. The special included a cluster of crab legs, a 4 oz lobster tail, fried shrimp, and a choice of soup or salad—I went with the Manhattan tomato-based soup. You also get to pick a side of rice, fries, potatoes, or linguine, plus complimentary garlic bread to start.

The ambiance gives off a fun, ship-like feel, and I noticed they’ve even added a side patio for outdoor dining. Service was standard, but the food came out hot and fast, which I appreciated. Crabby Shanty has been a staple for me since childhood, and it’s amazing to see that even into adulthood, they’re still serving up consistently delicious seafood!

Food was ok but not outstanding. Ive had more flavorful fried calamari. Shrimp was a bit overcooked and chewy. Fried clams looked like burnt bits. Best part of the meal was the garlic bread and baked potato.
The Inside ambiance is meh so best to sit outside.

Oh, the Baltimore Blue Crabs In A Garlic Sauce is the bomb; I always get it. That dish with New England Clam Chowder and a side of baked potatoes is the perfect combo. The rich flavors are so satisfying, and the garlic sauce is the best. Every time I go there, the service is always great, with friendly servers. DIVE SEAFOOD JOINT.
