Do you wish you could escape to somewhere tropical? Join the club… but fortunately for us Coloradans, there is a place we can go for a seaside escape, without even leaving the state! Check out this little-known ocean-themed restaurant:
The Crawling Crab is located in Denver, and through it may not look all that unique on the outside, the restaurant is filled to the brim with personality on the inside - and that’s what really counts!

Opened in 2011, The Crawling Crab focuses on Cajun-inspired cuisine, but some of the most popular options on the menu are the design-your-own dishes and build-your-own seafood boils.

The super-fresh oysters are another favorite here. Order a few for the table as an appetizer!

In true Cajun food fashion, you’ll also find every kind of fried dish you could possibly want.
