Crab Hut was founded in 2007 by a family that loves food and beer, with one purpose to bring San Diego some good ole' Southern sass and flavor. Our goal is to redefine the eating out experience and engaging the guest with hands on food, while keeping it fresh with products grown and rise locally here in San Diego.

With such a crazy concept, there must be crazy people behind it and yes we are. We're as crazy about our food as we are about the brews that we serve. Keeping it local and sustainable is our main goal and we do it when we can. This ensures our customers with the freshest quality available. Our taps and bottles also feature some of the best microbrews San Diego has to offer. We carry products from Karl Strauss, Stone, Lightning, Green Flash, Ale Smith, Coronado, Mission Brew, Ballast Point and many more. So bring your family, friends, neighbor, co-worker, friend’s friend’s friend and join our food and beer loving family for some good ole’ dirty fun.

    Service was good! Food came out fast! However, we were told as soon as we sat down that they now charge a 18% charge of the total bill and that pushed our bill way up. Much more than we are used to paying there. Probably start looking somewhere else to enjoy seafood.

    I took a friend visiting from Texas because they loved crab-legs so much. We enjoyed ourselves tremendously. The food was great and it was so much that we could not eat it all. The sampler appetizer was so much; but everything on it tasted great. The staff was friendly and helpful. It was my first visit to the downtown location and I am looking forward to going again.

    M-E-S-S-Y! No forks at the table. Wasn’t expecting to have to use my fingers to eat everything.

    Delicious crab poppers- definitely reasonably priced. Our reservation was marked as special occasion and we were never asked what the occasion was- crab cakes were also not so great

    Delicious food at reasonable prices. I had the sampler boat as my meal and couldn’t finish it! It was so good! Gumbo was not authentic New Orleans but the fried okra was spot on.
