I stopped by here yesterday evening to see what The Crab Shack had to offer. My wife and I each got a crabcake platter (only because they use little to no filler, all jumbo lump and lump because I am gluten free)the Crab cake was amazing, the French fries were great and the Cole slaw was creamy and delicious. I also ordered 2 jumbo hard shells to go and saved them for today just to see how they would be. Let me tell you, I got the 2 jumbo crabs out today and once I started picking them, I could not stop. They were cooked to perfection, still juicy and every bite was succulent and the flavor was amazing. Once I was done with those 2, I jumped in the truck and headed back down here for so more. Today they are offering a buy 1 doz and get 1 doz free. What a great place this has turned out to

I ordered 6 wings they charged me for 12 and they are dry. I ordered crab dip that I had gotten from there a few times but what I got wasn't what I ordered. I called to ask about all of this and got no help on the matter. I will no longer be goin there. Oyea yea nice birthday gift dotties smh I just wanted good food

Bought a dozen crabs last week. It was a mixed size special for $40. Several of the crabs were extra larges and one was a jumbo. The rest were medium to large size. All were full of meat and very tasty. An excellent bargain!

We just got the wings that are a Wednesday special in numerous flavors and Brett was our favorite! The seafood salad is delightful!! Do not buy the small you will regret it like I did! Bones less wings were cooked perfectly! Service was fast and friendly!

Delicious crab balls! The Mac and cheese needs more crab and seasoning. I would come back again to try more of their menu. Great atmosphere and service.
