“ Incredible! Excellent service by Bryanna- it was our first time and she did a great job explaining everything and we felt right at home. The clam chowder was packed- they’re definitely not stingy with this one. We felt the same about the seafood boil. The flavor, portion and price were beyond our expectations! This is where it’s at! ”
“ I love shrimp and grits so that's what I had. Ir did not disappoint. We also had oysters. Hubby had crab, lobster and shrimp bag with potatoes and corn on the cob. It was all really good! ”
“ Was honestly incredibly interesting, not very allergy safe, but has some options. Definitely. Cross-contamination options, but still options. Really interesting decor I think my mom would like it more than I personally do, but if you're a big fan of fish go for it, it's amazing ”
“ My mom and I stumbled across this as we were leaving Wells Fargo. As my mom was moving into the area, we wanted to see what restaurants were around. As we stumbled around, we saw this, and we decided to stop, immediately walked in, and decided to order. It had a friendly, warm, inviting atmosphere, laid back, and was busy for lunch. Highly recommend. ”
“ Every year, we visit San Tan Valley for Country Thunder, and we often struggle to find places to eat. This year, we debated going to Angry Crab Shack due to some mixed reviews. Living in Southern California, we frequently visit numerous crab places, so we were unsure of what to expect from crab and shrimp in Arizona. However, we were pleasantly surprised--Angry Crab Shack was DELICIOUS! The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Rylee took excellent care of us, and we were impressed by the portion sizes and prices. One previous negative review mentioned a lack of veggies or additional sides, but after looking at the menu, it was clear that the reviewer hadn't fully understood the option to build your own bag. Our entire bill came to 150, which included appetizers, multiple beers, and three large meals. Back home, that same meal would have easily cost us over 250. We all agreed that Angry Crab Shack will definitely be a place we return to every year. ”
“ We came out to Arizona for the month of March visit with friends. We happened along the angry Crab shack coming back from a shopping day, so we decided to stop in and check it out. Excellent food... we love our seafood!! Highly recommend checking it out!! ”
“ Surprised the restaurant was not busy. The food has great flavor and service was great! We had the lobster crostini, fried catfish basket and jambalaya. ”
“ I read the reviews and was hesitant to go but we wanted seafood so we went anyway. I have to say the food was really good. We had the catfish basket and seafood boil. The prices were good. It's seafood - it's expensive but the amount of food you get for what you pay was worth it. Seasonings and flavors were good as well. It was nice and cool in the restaurant. Marie and Delaney were amazing. We will definitely be back!!!!! ”
