I been wanting to stop here and eat for a while and finally I did. The location is easy to find the restaurant was very clean . If is your first time in this restaurant Ask the waitress to explain the menu .. the food and the service was great but if you are a foodie be prepared to spend money ? because sea food is not cheap … and I will not recommend this restaurant if you are supper hungry because you will come out disappointed that’s if you plan to eat the sea food boils…( only ) the calamari were really good . I will be back to this restaurant again .. PS Don’t wear a white top THIS WILL BE A MESSY FOOD SITUATION ?

Place is beautiful. Pricey for the boil bags but you can get cheaper meals. I spent $95.00 for two with tip.

Unfortunately the food was just okay. The atmosphere was noisy. The service was GREAT as was our server! The place was clean. We started with soup but soon found we had to go on a fishing trip to find the clams in the New England clam chowder. It tasted good as potato soup, though. The coconut shrimp was good. We absolutely loved the Cod Bites! We really didn't want the corn, potato and seafood boils. Instead I ordered the fried shrimp basket and my husband ordered the fried shrimp Po Boy. The fried shrimp was good for both meals but in the Po Boy, the 2 tomato slices we're so thin we almost couldn't find them and there was one piece of lettuce. Although the shrimp, cod bites and coconut shrimp had been deep fried and were hot, they did not appear to be fresh seafood. I realize Harbor Crabs is a chain and very much inland, here in Pennsylvania. It wasn't bad...but for the price it was just okay.

Went here for the first time for my Husband's birthday on a Friday night. He has been talking about this place for weeks, that he wanted to try it. We were seated right away and the waitress came promptly to order drinks. Our appetizer, raw oysters, came out in a timely manner and were tasty. Followed by our main course, it was neat how it was presented in a bag, until I realized the whole thing most of been cooked in it. My meal was the Friday special. The lobster, and shrimp were over cooked and rubbery, the corn was smushy and rubber combined, the snow crab legs were cooked correctly, and the potatoes were cooked perfectly. My husband got the build your own. The green mussels and, crayfish were cooked correctly the scallops were rubbery, the corn again was horrible and the potatoes cooked just right. We absolutely loved the sauce and spices that were served with the meals, if they cooked all the food correctly this would be a great place to go for dinner.For birthdays they sing happy birthday and bring out a litttle lava cake...My husband and I do not recommend this place for dinner, only for appetizers, dessert and drinks.

The boil was absolutely delicious. Got the Harbor boil and added scallops. We tried Cajun medium and I don't think we could have picked a better flavor profile. Angela was our server and she was on top of everything throughout the entire meal. It made for a very enjoyable evening.

A friend was raving about this place, so my wife and I decided to try it. I was not expecting a shore like seafood boil place where you can dig in and get messy. I love these places. This was the first place locally I had crayfish and did not send them back. They were delicious. The extra spicy Cajun sauce just made them and the shrimp perfect. My wife also enjoyed her shrimp and sausage boil and we agreed that the price was worth what we got. Service was fast and friendly. We will be going back.

The food was amazing! Staff was very nice and attentive. We will definitely be going back soon!

Very refreshing restaurant for this area. I'm not one to speak to the authenticity of Cajun delicacies but the broil I got was damn good! Food came out quickly, service was good & the food even better!

We have been here twice, the flavor and food were amazing! We shared a weekend special both times got the 3 sauces mixed and medium hotness. Staff was great! It was delicious and boiling hot each time. Definitely will go back. Great addition to Dickson City!

Absolutely amazing Food. A place where if you don't have to wash your hands after you eat, then you didnt do it right!
