The Boiling Crab Glen Waverley

The Boiling Crab Glen Waverley is a seafood restaurant located in Glen Waverley, Victoria, Australia.

It offers a unique dining experience with a focus on American, Cajun, and Creole cuisine. The restaurant is known for its messy and delicious Cajun crab boils, where guests can put on a bib and dive into a bag full of crab, lobster, shrimp, crawfish, oysters, and clams. These seafood items are generously bathed in lemon pepper, garlic, or Cajun sauce, or a mix of all three with their signature "the Whole Shebang" sauce. The Boiling Crab originated in Seadrift, Texas, a town famous for crab fishing, where the founder's family worked in their boats all year round. The concept of the restaurant was born from their weekend tradition of enjoying their catch over beers by boiling up crawfish and crabs, shucking raw oysters, and grilling fresh fish. The first Boiling Crab restaurant opened in 2004, and it has since expanded to more than 20 locations in the United States and even in Shanghai, China.
