Our server Hannah was nice and was attentive as she could be, they got a pop of business after we came in. We ordered the catfish basket with red beans and rice and the lobster roll to share. The catfish was ok, seemed like frozen battered but edible. Red beans were bland and served cold which Hannah quickly reheated as a fix. Lobster roll delicious and the star of the show. I would return for that alone. Restaurant was clean and had a cute little decor. Will stop here again when I am in the area.

Shrimp and crab combo with traditional boil - medium spice!
Gabi M.

After a couple of visits to the Phoenix location of ACS, my daughter has become a big fan of the seafood boil. Since her birthday is coming up, I allowed her to choose a dinner destination after her soccer practice the other night... and sure enough, this is where we went! Matthew was our server and he was great. We found this location cleaner and the staff more attentive here than the other location. We enjoyed our meals... I had the shrimp crab combo with rice and veggies and my daughter had the shack trio with an extra lobster tail. She is an expensive date, but worth the splurge every now and then for sure! We'll be back!

Hand washing station

Our first lunch today at Angry Crab Shack was even more delightful than expected. Great, friendly service, piping hot food and a fun, laid back family atmosphere. My wife ordered the lunch combo with corn, potatoes, crab and shrimp. I enjoyed a pound of live crawfish (in season now through June) with new potatoes and of course, hush puppies (WITH butter as intended!). Everything was cooked perfectly, we wore our bibs and appreciated the scissors and shell-crackers. NOTE: it's SPICY! (which we so prefer). Their heat scale is 0-5, we ordered 2 and it was perfectly hot. Also appreciated the 'hand washing station,' as something often overlooked. We will be back!

Lunch menu with pre inflation prices? This place has you covered! I got the lunch fish and chips basket for takeout and it was delicious. All the lunch options come with a fountain drink as well. The cod was crispy and so were the seasoned fries. I can't want to go back to try other items. The ambiance seems relaxed and fun for those who want to dine in. I also saw that they have reasonably priced items and drinks for happy hour too.

King Crab

Our server was so kind and nice.. they ran out of snow crab and she hooked us up with king crab and a bit extra for the charge of snow crab. Was very attentive to our needs especially since I had my 2 year old with me. Thank you so much will definitely be back very soon

Catfish Basket

Came in last night, Wednesday, Sept. 11th for a late dinner. Really impressed with the service (waitress:Becky) who patiently explained the boils and options. My daughter and I ended up with catfish basket and twin lobster rolls. Appetizer of raw oysters too. It was all amazing.

Food was really good and service was great. At first I was like why are they taking us to the bar section to eat but the bar person was great!

Laid back vibe wasn't too busy during the week when we went. Server was able to help with recommendations on food and beer which is hard to come by I feel like these days. Service was great our food came out quickly and was delicious! My family visits this restaurant now as a tradition as we love just everything about it.

Yummy- let's get cracking!!

Darling atmosphere when you walk in- looks like a wharf or fishing company kinda look! We had a great server- can't recall his name or I would certainly mention him! Was helpful with Menu and selections! Our food came promptly and was presented in a Fun manner- especially if you get the Boil with goodies you choose!! It was excellent- it was an $80 lunch...but, it was worth it and we were celebrating a special day. Thanks Angry Crab- we will definitely be back for another celebration of Seafood!! Yum!!

I loved the fish and chips. Had it with cole slaw. It tasted if i was having in London. Excellent service. Nice atmosphere.

I love this place!! If there was only one back home, but I suppose that's what makes it special!! We visit this establishment every time we visit Phoenix! I love their shrimp boils and the salmon on rice with veggies! AMAZING!! Mild trifecta sauce is an absolute favorite! It has a nice kick, even though I always ask for mild. Lol!! Some days are louder than others so pick carefully. I prefer a quiet environment so I either go early enough or much later at night.

I like how they decorated this place.  I ordered the fried catfish with onion rings.  Fresh catfish was full of tasty catfish flavor.  There were a few herbs which distracted me from the fried cornmeal batter.  Onion rings were panko battered with a few of the same herbs used with the catfish.  I liked the onion flavor but not the herbs.  I wouldn't order the fried catfish or onion rings again. I also tried the fried cod and cajun fries.  Cod was frozen and defrosted.  I didn't really notice it was frozen as it was good quality.  I liked the crunchy beer batter which contrasted the delicate cod. Cajun fries were crispy on the outside and soft inside.  I liked the seasoning on the fries.  I would get the fried cod and cajun fries again. Employees were nice and service was speedy.

Not bad for a chain seafood place in the desert. Friendly bar staff and fun, a little pricey for the quality but no overall complaints

As always amazing! We found this place on opening week just by a chance. Dad and I decided to go in…read moreand enjoyed it so much it is one of our regulars as most people know we still recommend them to this day. Their clam chowder is the absolute best in the state and since we went to Seattle, acriss state lines too in our opinion. Mom's too. When she was in the hospital after a stroke and refused to eat anything they helped us out with thinning the chowder down a little for her because we were worried it would be too thick. And this was the only thing she regularly ate besides frostys so we were so appreciative of the staff for helping us with that. It's a great memory we reminisce on, now that she has past. But as always love the food and recommend the fish and chips, get your cod grilled or fried both are amazing. Their calamari is amazing too!

I'm not out this way often but did give this place a try…read more Staff were friendly and helpful here. This is a seafood place and they have lots on offer, if you like fried foods. I tried to avoid an all fried meal, so had their broiled cod, steamed veggies plate. I didn't want the seafood pasta salad and substituted with hush puppies (oh well so much for not wanting anything fried). The broiled cod was pretty terrible, rubbery and overcooked and tasteless. I really had to try and finish all of my meal. The steamed veggies felt like they were frozen and just steamed up. Hush puppies were solid but then again you can't go wrong with the taste of fried, right? They have a soda fountain here and seltzer water and lemons available. Place was clean and bathrooms were fine. Also, had an outside patio space too. Sadly, I really wanted to like this place, but everything was pretty lackluster here minus the excellent service. I doubt I'll be coming back here, unless I may want some hush puppies...

Sometimes they overcook the fish so be sure to ask them to keep it moist. Tonight was excellent and it came out piping hot and perfect! The rice was nice and hot and had a perfect chewy texture - done just right. The fries never fail! They taste just like McDonald's fries; it's a true compliment not an insult!!! Aside from the food, I absolutely love the service! Every one of the staff is always, always friendly! They pay attention. They ask you if you need anything. They seem to care about what you think and how you like the food. Really great group of workers; management does a great job!

I've been going to "coconuts" now called Maui Fish House about 2 times a week for about 3 years…read more It was always HOT FRESH and felt very CLEAN. Clean eating that is. I gave it one last chance yesterday a total of 3 times in a row of barely warm food, fishy fish where I almost couldn't swallow and once I left a few hours later, my tummy was upside down. I was so grossed out all night. I will NEVER go back. It was almost cold old and fishy tasting which was so gross. Not one person was the same worker as before. So the "name change" shows me EVERYTHING changed. YUCK I would rather stay hungry than give them another chance unfortunately. And again i gave them 3 chances as I loved that place and they failed every time. Goodbye to that quick fresh fast and clean option for meals! Coconuts you will be missed !

Absolutely outstanding gumbo and etoufee, equal to the best I've had in New Orleans. 10 out of 10. About the only negative I've ever experienced is the oysters. Have to admit the oysters were only average. As to the outstanding gumbo, Caeser salads, soups. Just seriously spot on. Everything is cooked right in front of you; and the cooks (and foodservers) are very friendly, outgoing, etc. I normally don't tip the cooks, but here I do.

They were busy at around 10:15pm so we had to wait a bit for a table. We also had a large group of 8 but luckily we were able to get seated. Our server did an amazing job with our large group. Some in the group ordered pan roasts and some ordered crawfish etouffee. My friend also ordered clams. I always get the combo pan roast here. It's a mix of crawfish, shrimp and crab. Choose your spice level from 1-10. I forgot to specify a number and just said "hot" but it was not spicy enough for me. I normally get 7-8. I ended up adding in all the hot sauce options that were on the table plus some chili powder. Now that had a good kick to it. Ask for that! Price for the combo pan roast has doubled from before! It used to be $20, then it slowly increased to $30, and now it's $40! It's good, but I can also make it at home and get more for my money.
