The Crab House at Pier 39, a local San Francisco favorite since 1998, has reopen for the first time since being shuttered last spring (it was then purchased by the Simmons family, whose patriarch founded Pier 39.
The Crab House is known for its world famous “Killer Crab” (2 lb.+ whole Dungeness Crab roasted in a garlic sauce), roasted shrimp & mussels served on sizzling iron skillets, and garlic noodles served in a restaurant with sweeping views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Fisherman’s Wharf, and the San Francisco Bay.
The inviting interior design includes mahogany and white-tile accents, marble table-tops, and nautical accoutrements like fishing nets, model ships, and 250 hand-painted crabs lining the walls.
