Accoring to a recent Eater report, the Texas-based seafood chain the Boiling Crab will be opening a location in Austin this year at 6406 North I-35.

“At Boiling Crab, people are able to pick their choice(s) of seafood, such as Dungeness crab, blue crab, lobster, and clams; which are then steamed or boiled; and then they can add sauces and spice levels such as lemon-pepper,” the report states.

“There are also fried seafood baskets such as catfish and oysters; chicken tenders; fries; chicken wings; gumbo; and much more. Diners are encouraged to wear a bib while they eat because of the mess. For drinks, there are sodas, teas, beers, margaritas, and micheladas.”

This upcoming location will be the first Austin location of Boiling Crab, founded in 2004 by Sinh Nguyen and Dada Ngo in Seadrift, Texas.

While no opening timeline has been announced, readers can refer to the website’s declaration that it will be “coming soon.”
