The menu offers up a few set dishes which range from ¥4000 – ¥8000. These sets include crab sashimi, several small seafood dishes, stewed crab with vegetables, a rice dish, and an ice cream desert. For the more adventurous diner, you can buy whole crabs to share. These prices range from ¥5000 and up. Top price is ¥23 000! The size of these snow crabs is quite amazing. If you enjoy this succulent dish, then this restaurant is the place for you.
The layout, although a little dated, is set out Japanese style so its a nice atmosphere. There are 5 floors so there is plenty of space. There is also a large tetami-mat hall with hori-gotatsu (sunken floor) tables for large groups and parties. The staff are very helpful, and will help set up the crab stew and vegetables. They are dressed in kimonos so it adds to the experience. There is a shop at the entrance where you can buy gifts, and souvenirs (crab & seafood orientated) so you can take a piece of the Crab Shogun Restaurant home with you!

There is a special lunch menu, and a bar and all this is located across from one of Sapporo’s most famous landmarks, the Clock Tower. The space is large, with seating for over 100 people, so groups are ok. There is a separate smoking section and a bar area that serves up beers, cocktails, and non-alcohol beverages.

[the_ad id=”4264″]The layout gives views of the streets and there are some interesting black & white photos lining the walls that give this restaurant a sense of history. The starter menu is varied with quesadillas, hot buffalo wings, shrimp cocktail and potato skins, just to name a few. Of course the ribs are on the main meals, and steaks. Combos are also part of the deal, allowing the customer to test their palate on a couple of delicious items. The plethora of sauces and steak sauces are fantastic. Take your pick of original, bourbon BBQ, peppercorn, blue cheese crust, or teriyaki & wasabi butter sauces! If you’re not in the mood for ribs or steaks, then munch down on a juicy burger served up with coleslaw and fries.
