The Blue Crab Restaurant and Oyster Bar

Restaurant · Lakeshore - Lake Vista

"Blue Crab offers solid, fresh and no frills seafood right on the water, where kids can watch all the boats go by while snacking on fried shrimp and the like — the fried seafood is a star here. Usually live music on the weekends, adding to a fun atmosphere. See also, Lakefront restaurant Felix’s." - Clair Lorell, Eater Staff
