City Crab is located on the corner of Park Avenue and 19th Street, in the heart of the Flatiron District of lower Manhattan. Judging by the number of languages being spoken at the bar, City Crab is no secret to tourists. But with fresh seafood this good, it would be a hard secret to keep. And that creates one of the few downsides to the restaurant, that with its open floor plan and bustling business, it’s not a very intimate dining experience. (more…)

One little block on Park Avenue in the Union Square / Gramercy Park area is littered with restaurants and bars. Between 19th and 20th Streets there are Angelo & Maxies, City Crab, Sugar Cane, Sushi Samba and L’Express. With all of these restaurants available so close to one another, you can literally never have to leave this one-block radius. On a recent Monday night, we took our hungry selves and settled into City Crab. I had only been there once before, back in 1998 or so, and have been looking to get back there ever since. Upon entering the restaurant, the bar area is on the left while just beyond that are high tables so that you can eat in the bar area but still enjoy their full menu. There’s an upstairs and a downstairs dining room which both have great views thanks to the floor to ceiling windows looking onto Park Avenue. (more…)
