Oh My Crab

I had an amazing experience at the Oh My Crab restaurant—everything from the ambiance to the flavors was exceptional. The fresh catch was cooked to perfection, bursting with rich, savory taste that left a lasting impression. The warm, coastal decor made the place feel both elegant and inviting, creating the perfect atmosphere for a relaxed evening out. What truly made the visit unforgettable, though, was the outstanding service. Our waiter was incredibly kind, attentive without being intrusive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. It was a meal—and a night—I won’t soon forget.

Came in on a Friday afternoon, the place was empty and we were a little shocked since this place has good reviews. We ordered and the food was delicious. We had shrimp ,lobster, mussels, scallops , corn , potatoes and more. Service did take a while to bring g out foodbit overall the food was delicious. FYI it is BYOB!

THIS IS BEST SEAFOOD BOIL PLACE IN CHICAGO! I LOVE THEIR GARLIC OYSTER AS WELL! THE STAFFS ARE SO NICE and we got refill! We initially ordered “too crabby” deal and it was so delicious so we ordered another one.

A must try spot! For my birthday I wanted to try a seafood boil and let me tell you this did not disappoint. Exceeded my expectations and Emil was just great. Definitely recommend the calamari and both the oh my family pack and the 2crabby.

I went out for my birthday dinner with my friend and her hubby. The seafood that we ordered was quite delicious and tasty. Daniyar attended to us with many others customers seated dinning in as well and online orders he was taking too. He is extremely good and patient with everyone. I recommend “Oh My Crab restaurant for anyone to visit, you will enjoy every bit of it.

Let me start with, the food was excellent! I'm big on cajun boils and this is by far the most flavorful in Chicago area. I've had it in Louisiana and Texas and the flavors are very close to authentic. It was so good I had to take some garlic fried rice to go in addition to the huge order we ate at the restaurant. The ambiance is clean and modern, the service was a little slow but always courteous. It seems like a new joint so they're still figuring out some parts of the service but they were very polite even though our orders might have been a little confusing. This will be my new go to cajun boil place in Chicago and next time I'll try to take a picture of the restaurant instead of going crazy over the food. We ordered garlic fried rice, king crab boil, snow crab boils, shrimps, a couple of drinks and we might have repeated the garlic fried rice 3,4 times in one sitting. All the boils in 3 sauce option Couple of friendly recommendations to the restaurant: Having a bucket for shells would be great and if they cut up the sausage it might absorb more flavor

Absolutely delicious seafood at a great price! We got the family combo with the garlic butter sauce and it was divine! The best part is that the food wasn’t overly salty like in many other places — everything was perfectly balanced. We were really happy with the whole experience and will definitely be back!

Our party of 7 was served by Emil Z, who was great and had help from the manager? maybe, who took our large order, which was brought out flawlessly. EmilZ recommended Level 2 spice with level 3 on the side to taste, which was perfect. Be warned, level 3 is almost not eatable, and a tiny pea size dip per bite will do you. anything more than that you are risking medical care. We went with the garlicky Cajun sauce which was perfect and drinkable. Pour out your steamed rice out, and eat with your boil drippings at the end. The mussels were huge, crawfish and lobster tails, and snow crab were large and healthy size. Sausage, corn and potatoes were perfect. The chicken tenders are huge but nicely flattened and delicious, fries are better than your average. I Hope to return soon

Everything we ordered was excellent. My daughter had snow crab with corn and sausage. She finished the whole bag! I had grilled shrimp with rice and peppers and the vegetable soup. The soup is AMAZING. But all the food was delicious. And great value. Our server was attentive and our order came out pretty quickly. We will definitely be back!

"Oh My" is right! My 90 year old father has been on a Lobster kick lately. We've been going to Red Lobster repeatedly but today was a damp rainy day. I decided to do pick up. I was dreading the drive to Skokie so I searched where I could get lobster in the neighborhood. I found OMC and am so glad I stopped in. I did take out. The $88 Family Pack included 2 lobsters which individually would be $20 each. It came with medley of crab legs, shrimp, clams, sausage, corn, and potatoes swimming in a garlic butter sauce. So incredibly delicious!!!!! I went with their recommendation to get the mix of 3 sauces. We enjoyed the meal so much! The garlicky butter sauce paired with our own homemade steamed rice was like manna from heaven! Dad was very pleased! I selfishly hesitate to give this place a review because I know there will be lines out the door but I can't be selfish. The place was so immaculate, a cool modern interior and service was professional and friendly. This restaurant has only been in the neighborhood for 6 months. They tell me next Sunday they start a new early opening if I remember correctly, 10 am or 11am from their regular 1pm. Perfect for me and my friends to go for lunch after worshipping the Lord at Moody Church! Can't wait to stop by again with them!

I've passed by this place a million times and never stopped in. Finally tried it last week and wow! It's a beautifully decorated casual restaurant. We ordered the crab fried rice. Really simply seasoned with a good amount of crab. We then had the family boil for two of us. What a great deal for 88$. All the seafood was really fresh. Cajun spice over the lemon pepper spice was much more flavorful. And it's BYOB! Next time I plan on bringing a few beers. It's super messy and fun. Highly recommend!

Everyone was very friendly and the food was amazing They let my baby play with a little ringing bell that they had.. My family in law picked a great place for a birthday dinner I'd be back again

Thank god we have seafood boils again in Edgewater/ west Rogers park. It was so good. My mom and I had the $60 combo of shrimp, snow crab and we had a side of garlic noodles. We're going to go twice a month for seafood and quality time. Thank you

Went to oh my crab today with my friend and the food was delicious! We got 2IBs of crawfish and 1/2 IB of head on shrimp with all 3 flavors and medium spice! It was perfectly spiced for us and the sauce was very good. It was so lemony and buttery, definitely one of the better tasting Cajun boils we went to. The servicer was really nice and even offered us complimentary ice cream for our visit and the price was very budget friendly. It gave cafe vibes with how the set up was and it was really comfortable to sit and talk while we waited for our food. Next time we will be back to try the calamari and raw oysters too! It's nice to have a delicious spot in the neighborhood whenever we crave a Cajun boil!
