The Original Crab Shanty

Restaurant · City Island

"Old school kitsch in the form of crab-shaped menus and nautical decor is the star at this charming family-owned restaurant on City Island, in the Bronx. Selfies in plastic bibs are optional, but the troughs of spaghetti topped with lobsters, clams, shrimp and more are nearly essential for groups. Other shareable feasts under $100 feed four or more, including a bounty of fresh seafood, appetizers, sides and all the necessary accoutrements." - Melissa Kravitz Hoeffner
