Crabfest , the ultimate celebration of everything crab, is back at Red Lobster ! For a limited time, guests are invited to discover bigger and better ways to enjoy the largest variety of crab offered all year. Crab lovers can choose from options like NEW!

For even more ways to enjoy crab, guests can also choose from favorite dishes featuring crab, like the Ultimate Feast , Crab Linguini Alfredo and Wild-Caught Snow Crab Dinner.

"During Crabfest, our guests get the unique opportunity to explore a variety of different types of crab, all on one plate," said Chef Dustin Hilinski, Executive Chef and Director of Culinary at Red Lobster. "Whether it's freshly steamed Jumbo Snow crab legs, crab-topped seafood stuffed shrimp, or crab sautéed in a creamy pasta, Crabfest truly gives guests an opportunity to discover crab like never before."

During Crabfest, Red Lobster is celebrating the fishing boats and crews that help supply crab to its restaurants, including the Deadliest Catch fleet. Guests can toast the fleet with the NEW! Rogue Wave cocktail, featuring Sauza Gold tequila, blue curacao and house margarita mix topped with a splash of ginger ale and served in collectible Deadliest Catch glassware.
