The Crab Hut - Athens

Attention delivery drivers this place never has the orders ready or even started. They said delivery orders weren't their priority. Shame! I'll never order from this place.

Great food and very clean bathroom. I will be returning to try the fish baskets.

We went to The Crab Hut in Athens Eastside. It's a Vietnamese Cajun Seafood Boil and Fried Seafood Restaurant but the Eastside location has Vietnamese food on the menu. I'm Asian and I've been a little underwhelmed with the Ethnic offerings in Athens and surrounding areas. I had Bun (chilled rice vermicelli with lettuce, cucumbers, carrots, and peanuts) with Grilled Marinated Pork, Two full sized Eggrolls, and an extra protein order of fried over easy egg. My friend had Pho (Beef bone broth soup with rice vermicelli noodles), flank steak, bean sprouts, jalapeños, and a wedge of lime. She wasn't sure if she would have enough protein so I told her to try Vietnamese Meatball as a side. She loved it! And remember this dish is what her son ordered for her before. For dessert, we shared a Red Velvet Cake with thick layers of Cream Cheese Frosting and a wafer of chocolate. Authenticity wise it was on par with ordering in Gwinnett or Buford Highway. We were both pretty happy campers with this spot and will put them on rotation.Bathrooms are not gender neutral but are handicap accessible.

Kid friendly or a great casual bite.

I’m from Chicago and I have always loved Georgia, but never the food, but The Crab Hut changed my view on the food because that seafood boil was the best food I ever had in Georgia. I will definitely be eating there

You wouldn't think that you could find the best pho in Athens at a Cajun seafood restaurant but here it is. The broth is delicate, delicious and delightful. They give you so many cuts of meat and the noodles are cooked perfectly. They have a whole vietnamese menu that I will be trying out. I'm happy to know that there is amazing pho so close to me!
