Gusteau's Crab Hauz - GenSan
"We are more than just a crab house!"
-Mr. Allan Lopez owner of Gusteau's Crab Hauz
Place: 8/10
It’s located at the heart of the city, adjacent to the newly
opened Greenleaf Hotel and just a stone's throw away from the major malls of
the City. I never really thought that the place would be as simple as it is
because of its gigantic crab that will welcome you upon entering the
restaurant. That actually set my standard since I haven't been yet to Gusteau's
former location. From outside, the restaurant is alluring and simple but cozy
in the inside. I find the table a bit tall than the standard height of a
restaurant's table. They also offer two VIP rooms good for 15 pax each
convertible to one[room]. But overall, friendly atmosphere and I felt at ease and
comfortable.
Food: 9.6/10
The food was great and nothing to complain really. We tried
almost all the food.
Good to know that they really have their own crab farm
where they culture their own crabs for the restaurant. All crabs are alive and
allow you to choose which one you like to try. Its price depends on the crab's
weight. Not to mention, they have the same process for the lobster’s selection.
So, it’s really your discretion on which crabs or lobsters do you want to eat.
Indeed, a festive of great crabs. Yummy!
Aside from the crabs that they mainly offer to all the
customers, they are serving different cuisines too. We tried White Squid, The
Slipper Lobster, Grilled Pork Belly, Shrimp & Vegetable Salad and many
more. Since, we are in GenSan, they have varieties of Tuna cuisines like
Grilled Tuna Belly, etc. etc. What a pleasant surprise after tasting Gusteau's
finger-lickin Doki's Chicken; crispy outside yet juicy honey flavored inside.
That's literally mouth watering. Food prices are reasonable; in fact, I
find it cheaper than the usual crab house food prices. Bravo for that.
Service: 8.4/10
I see no flaws on the service and all the wait staffs are
very attentive. This is one factor aside from the food being offer by a
restaurant or even just in any food chain. This kind of aspect to the whole
operation of the restaurant can marked to the customers and would be somehow a
reason for them to come back again. The fast service won't take you long to
wait for your food to be served. That's why; I have to commend Gusteau's for
creating such a good circle of staffs. Not to mention, they're pleasing too.
Bottomline: 9/10
Gusteau's Crab Hauz is a perfect place to take you friends or family. I am no connoisseur but I guess, this is the best crab house
here in GenSan and for sure, if you get the chance to taste it, you will get no
words to say but show an affirmative nod. Speechless. Recommend to everyone.
