Went to Shaking Crab with a reservation on 5/23 from a long commute. The girl said the guy there had been working a 6 hour shift with no breaks and could not serve us because he was their only server tonight. She told us if we came back the next night sodas would be on them. We commute a half hour back the next night, (5/24), with another reservation, and the place has a piece of paper on the door that says their closed due to unforeseen circumstances. My boyfriend and I were dying laughing. Maybe the poor server quit who had to work by himself. What a waste of time, you can’t even get a table. At least close your open table or mark on google you are closed. Will not try to break into this location again.

Good standby for spicy seafood. You have to be in the mood to eat with your hands. The shaking crab original sauce is the way to go. We got it in medium (2 out of 4) and there was a decent amount of spicy heat. The Louisiana sauce is too vinegary. The fried pickles were in a light batter but cut thin; I prefer when they are thicker cut. We had the headless shrimp (full), crawfish (half), snow crab clusters, (half) and clams (full). Everything was fresh. And this was enough for 3 diners. Today the sauce had too much grease, unlike the other 4-5 times. Wheelchair accessibility: Wide aisle on ground floor. Limited tables on ground floor, so call ahead to reserve.

My daughter came once in early spring, the restaurant it’s safe has a calm chill setting to its vibe. Did I tell you about the food, we safe & ate . The food was so delicious & satisfying. The drinks were even better.. I’ll definitely do it again.

my husband and I ordered food from this restaurant. All was good until my husband found a piece of what seem to be synthetic braiding hair wrapped and fried into his chicken wig. The sight of it made me feel sickened instantly. After taking pictures and filing a complaint with Ubereats, we discard all of our food. This occurrence has made us realize the true level of cleanliness at the restaurant and we have decided not to patronize it in the future.
