The best place for crabs and seafood! It’s been a staple for me and my family whenever we visit from Florida!

I love the crabs year around there always good… Including shrimps and craw fish… They have a good garlic oil dipping sauce for the steamed crab legs. and homemade cocktail sauce … I also like the seafood salad .and king crabs legs with the authentic crab palace seasoning!

Oh yeah that’s what I’m talking about !!! This place hits home… grew up crabing, boiling seafood with my dad. New Orleans uses the same spices (infused in the water) but the difference is ya’ll steam (spices are topical).
Ive tried Maryland style before and was not impressed. This place gets steamed right !!!
Love the warehouse to go way and don’t mind going there in Newark. (15 Mins. from Airport, off of rt. 21)
People were so friendly and even gave me a crab to try without even asking !!!
The generous natured girl working there wanted to make sure (by illustration) I knew how to peel and eat crabs. (SO NICE).
So I got 1 dozen Hot steamed Crabs (35 $) and 1 corn on the cob (1 $)
Crabs male, sweet female mixed (gulf) were med. to small in size just meaty enough.

If you’re looking to try and ultimately get hooked on the best crab, shrimp, seafood, etc. you got to go to Crab Palace. I’ve been traveling from Central Jersey to the CRAB PALACE on Miller Street in Newark, NJ for 5 years now and have never been disappointed. The BLUE CLAW CRABS AND SHRIMP are out of this world. Also you got to get them steamed and loaded up on house seasoning. My family and friends are always super excited when they find out I’m coming home from the CRAB PALACE!!.
I have not yet been to the location on Market Street but with it being owned by the same family I know it will be GREAT! I’ll make sure to put an updated post when I hit up the CRAB PALACE Market Street, Newark, NJ.
If you’re reading this review make sure you take my advice and go get the best crab /​seafood spot in the Tri-​State area. You will never be disappointed with CRAB PALACE!!!

Freshest seafood at wholesale prices!.. This unsuspecting local secret is tucked away in an commercial distribution section of Newark. Offering some of the freshest bounties from the sea, only to be complimented by their very own original signature Old Bay Spice! For the crustacean lover in all of us, you will be sold like I have at the very first bite. Make no mistake, this really is the last stop to make when it comes to tasty fresh seafood and at distributor prices to boot. Enjoy and you can all thank me later :)

This spot is located in the part of Newark where your almost sure that you’ll be robbed and dragged into a warehouse for torture so be aware. They have a great selection on sizes of blue crab and get it done quickly. They had a deal of buy a dozen medium male crabs and get a dozen free. Not bad. I spent many summers in MD eating crabs all day so this spot brought back memories with their traditional Chesapeake bay seasoning with thick kosher salt. It’s absolutely addicting and a must have for all crab lovers. Prices were right and they have other seafood options for steam if you so desire. Shrimp, Dungeness crab, lobster and snow crab legs for sale all decent prices. It’s definitely a spot that I don’t mind visiting again and again. I love crabs and this will definitely be my summer go to every single summer.

My brother lives here and has been raving about his «new find» and «hidden gem» in regards to seafood. We grew up in Maryland around Annapolis so our standards are high when it comes to great seafood. Sure enough this place was exactly what I WISH we had in Los Angeles. Franchise, please! :) Yummy seafood, all delish, and for a price that I didn’t feel guilty about on my credit card statement. Can’t wait to go back. I love small businesses that rock and do things right. Kuddos to whoever does the purchasing :)

Do not be off put by its location in Newark, its a hidden gem! We stopped by yesterday to pick up a ½ bushel (5 dozen crabs) for a BBQ, and they were a hit! You can’t place orders ahead of time, but that doesn’t matter, you’ll be in an out in no time. The parking situation is a little odd… on street, and around warehouses… so I would recommend one person wait with the car while the other runs in. It was a hot day, my Mom ran in to get the crabs, and they even gave her a bottle of water while she waited. Would recommend to anyone and will definitely go back!

Amazing place. Crustaceans are always fresh. Really friendly and knowledgable staff. And I love when they have their medium male crab sale where you buy one dozen and get a half dozen free.

Great place. Went here to get some crabs and was well worth the trip. We wanted large crabs but we went right before closing so there were only medium left. The menu is straight to the point you pick male or female, medium or large then quantity from half dozen to a bushel which is several dozen. When you walk in it can be chaotic especially as a first timer you kinda have to ask around for where to order. For the three of us we ordered two dozen and it was a great amount we all had our full and there was only about 3 that we didn’t eat. The seasoning was absolutely amazing it is way more than a dust of old bay and it seemed like enough until you get to the middle of the bag… Seems they toss the seasoning at the top of the bag so when you get to the middle there’s none on the crabs. So I would get extra on the side to accommodate the bottom of the bag. Have every intention on returning and going early to have a better choice !

Unbelievably good food here! Every time I eat hear I get a seafood feast fit for a king. My only complain is that my stomach is not bigger so that I can enjoy even MORE of their succulent crab!
Highly recommend!

I work in town and a co-​worker recommended the crab palace to me for a BBQ I was having. I was so happy I went with them! Their prices were really great for what you get and the service is great! The food was so fresh, too — everyone loved it! Definitely going back there for the next party!

I LOVE THIS PLACE. I remember my grandfather bringing home giant bags of steamed shrimp and live crabs when we were kids, but never knew exactly where he got them from. Then I mentioned it to my mom and she pointed me to this place and this is THE PLACE! They offer fresh shrimp and live crabs of sizes. They’ll also steam them right there for you to eat right away. They don’t have a sitting area, so it’s just grab and go service. They have bags of seasoning to go with your freshly steamed seafood which is mainly Old Bay seasoning (my favorite anyway). The prices are very good considering what you get for your money.
