This is a review of HAPPY HOUR, at City Crab. DON'T think of this as a 4 star review of the whole restaurant. So..... Happy Hour has $1 oysters, half price appetizers, and half price cocktails. It's a great deal, especially as the oysters were good blue points and the martinis were big. We also had the pan fried clams,... more

City Crab is a huge letdown. With the massive crowd and classy location, you would expect better food. The atmosphere and quality are comparable to Legal Seafoods, though probably not even that satisfactory. The duplex is packed with tables, a bar on each floor, and a mix of patrons that might as well be tourists if they pick this place... more

It's okay.. the food is of average quality and taste and the service is average as well.. only if you are too desperate to eat sea food around Union Square. more
