The wait to be seated was way too long bc I had a reservation. BUT Good food with a beautiful view of the sunset on the patio. We had a large party and the main complaint was all the baked potatoes were cold. They replaced them all. The waitress handled it well, BUT she really should've had more help with a party of 10. It was still a good experience overall bc it was my birthday dinner

Wanted to try something different , went around 3pm on a Friday, with my daughter and uncle, definitely recommend , crab shack has something for all age groups! Definitely recommend the hush puppies and enjoyed the crabcake sandwich with slaw! Anna was our waitress, she's very attentive and nice!

Def Covid safe environment...seating spaced apart...tables clearly marked that are not used. Sanitizer stations, paper menues must wear mask. We especially appreciated the main entrance arm grip handle, hands free. Beautiful location/view great food.
