502 Crab House, which opened a year ago at 5023 Mud Lane as part of the wave of new Cajun seafood restaurants, closed sometime in May, according to its Facebook page. That’s a real shame, especially since it had started serving some Vietnamese dishes in addition to seafood.
Another Cajun seafood restaurant — Captain Crab Seafood Boil, at 4112 Outer Loop — also is having problems. Two weeks ago it had a sign on the door saying it was temporarily closed because of lack of staff. Now the phone appears to be disconnected, and people on Facebook are asking if it’s closed for good.
