Voted Best Lobster Bisque 2017

​
The Crab Shell Restaurant in Stamford, CT
is the area's premier waterfront dining establishment.
With views that can’t be beat and indoor/outdoor dining,
come over anytime you’re in the mood for
delicious fresh-from-the-water seafood.

Clams, oysters, shrimp, mussels, Maine lobster, crab
and more are turned into mouthwatering dishes
that will surely please.

Try our grilled Cajun swordfish wrap, lobster pot pie, Maryland crab cakes, or the shrimp, chicken & sausage Creole.
Sure, we are seafood centric, but there’s plenty for landlubbers, including filet mignon, BBQ baby back ribs, chicken Francaise, bacon cheeseburger and much more!

And if you are looking for a fun night out, there's no place better to rock the dock. The Crab Shack dockside bar on the
Stamford Landing Boardwalk offers a festive

This Popular Stamford Seafood
Restaurant Draws Diners From Near,
Far

Love a little crab thrown in with some truffle fries, and a great salmon?

Oh, wait, and maybe a tasty slider?

Then you'll want to head to The Crab Shell in Stamford.

Even during COVID-19 pandemic times, fans of the restaurant on the water
from both near and far, can't seem to say enough good things about the
longtime restaurant.

The restaurant says it doesn't fool around when it comes to its patrons'
health and follow all Connecticut regulations and CDC guidelines, in
addition to modified table layout to operate at 50 percent reduced capacity
indoors and ensuring a minimum of six-feet table spacing.

Of course, all of the servers are masked and tables and all condiments are
sanitized after each use.

But, hey, let's get back to the food here. Just a quick look at Yelp! gives you
an idea of how good the food is with five stars after five stars reviews.

One local said the staff is friendly and the "lobster bisque is to die for."

The menu offers all the regular seafood fare, including clam chowder, and
more, but also some real standouts such as prosciutto fig pizza, and
roasted Brussel sprouts with just a hint of spice.

Other favs include ribs, yep rips, along with some very fancy seafood dishes
such as Pacific grouper Francaise and baked stuffed shrimp or sea scallops
w/ bearnaise sauce.

The bar is no slouch either, offering flights of beer and plenty of inventive
cocktails, as well as the usual, for those who like to keep it real.

The owners are not new to the game, having opened the restaurant in 1989
and only getting better with time.

And, for boat lovers, during the warm months, there are boat slips available
and outdoor dining and bar.

So, if you're ready to chow down some great seafood, or maybe an
innovative pizza, then head to the Crab Shack and enjoy!

The restaurant is located at 46 Southfield Ave., Stamford Landing,
Stamford. Hours vary during the winter and summer months, so check
before going. For information call, 203-967-7229.
