Took my lady out for a romantic Saturday, really enjoyed the ambiance of the place. Great food, the Filet Mignon with the home style potatoes are a must for me the 2nd time I visit. Service was top notch. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a romantic place to go to and some good food to eat.

The only good experience in Red Crab was a pleasant and cosy interior and nice service. But this is it. Very expensive for the quality offered.We were waiting for more than an hour for our entrees to arrive (given that we were the only customers in the restaurant!), and New York steik (a $28 dish) was tough and chewey, although shish kebab was good. Also, I feel that they played a dirty trick on us: after the order was made and the menus were taken away, the waiter offered a substitution for 2 fish dishes since they didn't have the fish we ordered - one would assume, for the same price.But after lunch was eaten and we got the check, we found out that they brought us 2 $28 fish dishes instead of $14 dishes we orderd in the first place, not to mention $6 for each cup of instant(!) coffee and tee. It was December, 31, we brought our elderly parents for a supposely nice New Year's lunch, and didn't want to make a scene - and they (the restaurant) were counting on it! Never going back to this horrible place!

Unfortunately another Russian restaurant died after renovation. They just reopened in September 2010. This Russian restaurant lost its face. Food, interior, music etc. everything became average.
I just came back from having lunch over there. I haven't eaten there since I was a little child and I remembered why I used to love going there so much. I ordered the raw short neck clams, which were delicious. I then had a order of the snow crab leg
