Rusty Crab Daddy Seafood Restaurant and Bar

Locally owned Cajun and Creole restaurant on Bluff Street, built around the seafood boil — served in a bag and eaten with your hands.

It is a format far more common on the Gulf coast than in the Utah desert. A full bar runs alongside the dining room, which is still comparatively uncommon among independent restaurants here.

Background

The seafood boil is a Gulf coast format — Louisiana, Texas and the Vietnamese-Cajun kitchens of Houston and New Orleans — in which shellfish is boiled with corn and potato, tossed with seasoned butter in a bag, and eaten with the hands at a paper-covered table. Crawfish are freshwater crustaceans farmed in the Louisiana rice country. Finding the format four hundred miles from any ocean, in the Utah desert, is genuinely unusual.
