Raleigh Crab House

About

Raleigh Crab House is a Cajun-style seafood boil restaurant on Capital Boulevard in northeast Raleigh, inside the city limits. From Wake Forest it is a straight run south down Capital, about 15 to 20 minutes away, which makes it the nearest boil house to town that is not a national chain.

The idea is simple: pick your seafood, pick the weight and dig in. Shrimp, snow crab and lobster tail are the boil staples, and a fried menu covers catfish, oysters and shrimp for anyone who wants something crisp. It appears to be a single-location independent restaurant.

What to know

  • Build-your-own platters run from $38.40 at a pound per item, or $22.20 at a half pound.
  • Snow crab legs are $38.40 on the restaurant’s DoorDash menu.
  • A side of hush puppies is $5 on its own online menu.
  • Takeout orders go through a third-party online ordering menu, which is its only website.
