Took another friend to Angry Crab Shack. My first experience there was great so I decided to give it another try. Walking in, the place is the same. We had a different server and she knew the menu back and forward. Nothing we asked her (Paola) was beyond her - pleasant and friendly and knowledgeable. We ordered the calamari to start, with a shrimp/rice bowl for me and a salmon/rice bowl for friend. We waited quite awhile for our food. Unfortunately the calamari arrived about 3 minutes before the rice bowls. The calamari was "different" - long extruded looking pieces (3" long) that were deep fried. They tasted good but there was no "chew" to them. The sauce with them was tangy/spicy. The rice bowls had twice the amount of rice needed. The shrimp and salmon were delicious. The accompanying veggies were pretty much all carrots with two or three very mall pieces of broccoli. It was an okay meal - not what I had hoped for but still good. I'll give Angry Crab Shack another try in the future. read more

From the moment we walked into the restaurant everything was wonderful. The older gentleman who greeted us was very friendly and gave us our choice of where we wanted to sit. Our server Amber was a-maze-ing!! We were celebrating my wife's birthday, and they treated her like a queen. We started out with the fried pickles, and they were super good. Then my wife had the crab legs with cornbread, and I had the jambalaya; both were delicious, and we had leftovers to take home. Because we were so full, Amber packed up the complementary birthday dessert which was a brownie with ice cream, chocolate sauce, and whipped cream!! We could not have asked for a better experience. read more

We had an amazing experience at Angry Crab Shack, and I had to leave a review because everything from the service to the food was outstanding. Kim was our server, and she was absolutely fantastic. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. She really helped make the whole experience enjoyable and welcoming. The food was excellent. I ordered the Trifecta, and everything was cooked perfectly. The crab was spot on -- easy to crack open, and the meat came out full and clean without having to fight with the shell. That's a huge sign of perfectly cooked crab. The shrimp was also cooked just right, tender and flavorful, not overdone at all. The sauce was incredible and tied everything together perfectly. Every bite had bold flavor, and even the sides soaked up the seasoning really well. Overall, this was one of the best seafood boil experiences we've had in Tucson. Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding service from Kim. We'll definitely be back. read more

We had an awesome experience with a large group of 10 to celebrate some birthdays. The food was awesome! We ordered the seafood boil with trifecta sauce (mild spicy- I would caution with the spice level). The servers were kind and a staff member even came out to show the kids a live lobster and let them touch it! Such a fun dining experience. We will definitely be back! read more

Hubby and son really wanted some crab so off we went yesterday to Angry Crab Shack on Broadway. The first two things we noticed is the EXTREMELY sticky floors and a broken booth right when you walk in. We were seated right away and greeted by our waiter (R) quickly. I was taken aback at the clear smell of alcohol radiating from him although he was courteous. They both ordered their crab and I ordered shrimp and grits. The grits were so runny that the shrimp sank to the bottom. The shrimp were sandy somehow which was weird. The guys said their crab was good. For the three of us, the bill plus tab was about $300 - seemed high for a meh experience. read more

Our family had such a great experience at Angry Crab Shack! We went for a seafood boil and it did not disappoint. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. What made the night even better was our server, Amber. She was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Her great attitude and service really added to the whole experience. Delicious food, great atmosphere, and excellent service -- we'll definitely be back. read more

Definitely below mid. I went there over the weekend just to have so spicy wings. They were dry and over cook, no spicy at all. Staff was friendly. read more

Food very subpar, poor excuse for seafood. I had to put down a star to post. Don't waste your money. Tuna on the can is way better. read more

Love this place, great service and tasty food. Love that you can decide on the season that's right for you.

Given the area this is located... I had been a little sus about trying it out... now I feel my problem Is going to be limiting my frequency. Such a cool space and super friendly staff. The seafood is delicious (they have non seafood options but I didnt try anything else as I came here for the seafood). The fried clams were really good (and I'm not generally into fried clams)... they have a bit of a spice and flavored well. We got the Broil for Two with the trifecta seasoning and medium spice level and it was perfect. The sweet corn was sweet and the potatoes were cooked just right. They do offer you gloves, all the gadgets for eating seafood and even a bib. Market Prices can seem high... but you would pay more at almost any other seafood restaurant for the variety in the Boil for Two. They have a decent bar with several cocktail and beer options. Only suggestion I would have is - wear short sleeves and dig in!! read more

Love the food and service here! Drinks are great and the seafood boil seasoning is amazing. Highly recommend!

First time at Angry Crab Shack and it was pretty good! I've had seafood boil before so I ordered the Crawfish and Clams to the bag. The clams were delicious but the crawfish was hit or miss. Some of the crawfish tasted off and the ones were a lot more mushy and soft compared to the fresher ones. I've had better seafood boil elsewhere, so i'm glad I was at least able to try the one that Tucson offers! read more

So we wanted to go to Angry Crab the closest one to us is the one on Grant, not sure if we want to go there cause of the area. GLAD we did , GREAT food service. Don't let the area fool you. As Mom said don't judge the book by the cover! Lol. There were 8 of us everyone said it was great let's go back. The server was wonderful read more

New to the area. I was really craving southern style fried catfish. Drove over and ordered take out. I don't live far so food was relatively still fresh. Taste was okay. I paid extra for an additional side that I did not receive. Probably won't be back. read more

This was the chosen restaurant by the hubby for his birthday. His review of his seafood boil: He loved it! He said the seafood was fresh, and the spice he selected which was mild but tangy, was perfect for his taste. The seafood boil comes out in a big plastic bag that is placed inside a can. Rather than dumping the entire thing right onto the table, which you can do....the hubby pulled out the plastic bag and ripped it open. That way the seafood stayed soaking in the juice while he ate. They provide you with claw crackers, gloves, and a bib. Me being a vegetarian, I had looked at the menu online prior to going to make sure there was something for me to eat. There was....I ordered the garlic noodle bowl and the angry endamame. Warning...the garlic noodle bowl was delish, but a tad too much garlic. No vampires were going to get me that night...LOL! The trifecta sauce on the angry endamame was fantastic! It contains cajun, lemon pepper, and garlic. It was so yummy! No need to dress up in this place....very casual. Check the board when going on as there are drink specials listed. The service was great....very friendly people. read more

Shrimp bowl was great as well as the jambalaya. I will ask the management to do what is required to re-pave the parking lot. My elderly mother had a difficult time walking into the restaurant read more

Excellent food! Fun dining experience for loud family gatherings. The way that they set up your table is unique and builds excitement for when and how it is delivered. read more

Starting this review off by saying Kim is an OUTSTANDING human. She was personable, attentive and just overall amazing. My boyfriend and I split the boil for 2 and not a single complaint. Kim was so attentive we never had to ask for anything because she already knew what we needed! We were just at the end of our extra trifecta sauce, and she came over with more at the most perfect timing. 100% will be returning and would love to sit in Kim's section any day! read more

Culver's is better. They forgot my cole slaw and portions of fish were on the small side

When this location first opened service was great food came out to table temperature hot.... Last night my daughter and I went for dinner we were right away seated but then took a long time get anyone to come and take our order but when they finally came we order our drinks 1 appetizer. Our appetizer was cold like if it had been sitting for someone to pick it up, we still ate what we could and server never came to take our dinner order. So we just got up and payed for what we ordered horrible service! read more

This place is amazing! Trifecta medium was the perfect sauce for our boil! Service was great, even on a super busy Saturday! Love the sinks in the restaurant area! Highly recommend! read more

This was a fabulous place. We went there for our anniversary and we're not disappointed. Hubby had the fried shrimp and loved it. I had fish and chips and will be eating it tomorrow as well, as there was so much. Beans and rice that came with my meal was some of the best beans and rice I've ever had. The calamari appetizer was for sure the best. Grace was a very intentive waitress. There wasn't one thing negative about this place. read more

Angry Crab Shack - Best cajun seafood I've ever had. - Seafood Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Angry Crab Shack - Grant Rd. Tucson We have dined at this restaurant for many years, usually for family birthdays, and that's why we were there recently. This may be the last time we visit this location. If we have similar experiences elsewhere, it could spell the end of family visits to the Angry Crab Shack. It all started even before we were seated. The hostess prioritized chatting with a returning employee over seating our party. Once we were finally at our table, the music was playing far too loudly. Although we asked our server to turn it down, it was still difficult for us to hear one another. As a result, our orders were not taken correctly. When it comes to the order timing, there were five of us, and it was at least twenty minutes between the first dish and the last. I should have timed it to confirm! I ordered soft-shell crab and Cajun French fries. The crab arrived hot and delicious, but the fries were disappointingly cold and only regular seasoned, rather than the Cajun flavor I expected. I should mention that our dinners were served over a span of at least twenty minutes, if not longer. Mine arrived first, but my wife's and daughter's meals took much longer to come out, and they both ordered boiled shrimp. It's puzzling why those would take so long. On our way home, we reflected on our dinner experience and felt quite disappointed, especially since it was meant to celebrate my wife's birthday. While we've enjoyed the Angry Crab before, our visit to the location on Grant Road in Tucson, Arizona, did not meet our expectations this time. We hope to see improvements in the future, but for now, we're unsure if we will return any time soon. read more

The food was great, but unfortunately we had terrible service. The waitress offered bread and butter, but never brought it. When we finally got her to come back to us and asked, she said "no worries" and still never brought any! Another server brought our order, but didn't get everything we ordered. Again had to run down our waitress to get the missing items. She never checked back, so we didn't get our empty drinks refilled. Terrible service! We will most likely go to another location next time. read more

We had lunch as a family today after weeks of looking forward to visiting this restaurant with our dad, who is a truck driver. His entire family is from Louisiana, and he grew up eating food very similar to what they serve here. We arrived around 1 PM and were seated right away. Our server was incredibly sweet and helpful, especially when answering my questions about the boil bags. We started with the hush puppies, which had a unique and delicious combination of flavors. My mom and sister ordered cheeseburgers, while my dad and I went for seafood. I got a snow crab boil bag, and my dad chose a catfish po' boy sandwich. My boil bag came out first, but the rest of the food followed shortly after. The boil bag was great--though I quickly realized I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to spice! My dad absolutely loved his catfish sandwich. Unfortunately, my mom and sister's burgers were significantly undercooked, but when we mentioned it to our server, she immediately had their meals, including the sides, remade and brought out fresh and even discounted them from our receipt. For the price, the food was really good, and we'll definitely be back. I also love the variety of options on the menu. Given the restaurant's location, it was actually a pleasant surprise! Bathrooms and restaurant were clean! I wasn't worried about anything read more

We ordered fried oysters and the lunch crab/shrimp bag. I also ordered gumbo. My wife liked the crab/shrimp bag; the shrimp were jumbo sized and tasty. The restaurant provided a pair of scissors to cut the crab open and they were woefully inadequate. My oysters tasted "off." unpleasant flavor. The gumbo was in no way like what you would get in New Orleans or Galveston although lots of small shrimp. The ambiance inside the restaurant was dated and it smelled. The men's restroom stank to high heaven. Really, really bad, but it was reasonably clean. Couldn't find where the terrible odour was coming from. Service was fine; our server was attentive but we were the only customers. Overall, this was NOT a good experience. read more

I had lunch here the other day & it was a delightful experience. Summer, my server, was friendly, polite & professional., Except for the upscale Parish, this is Tucson's only Cajun/Creole restaurant. It's casual dining at its best! For $16, the jambalaya is a bargain, with chicken, sausage & grilled shrimp on a bed of rice with a spicy sauce & a tasty, crusty bread to sop up the sauce. I opted for the fried cornbread with ice cream, caramel syrup & a dollop of whipped cream for dessert. read more

Love, Love, Love the fried clam strips. Can't get enough of them. The clam chowder is to die for, creamy and rich. Hubby likes the shrimp po boy. I loved the shrimp they put on the grits, but the grits had a strange consistency. I would of love just eating a plate of shrimp. missus the grits. This is our go to food for great seafood. read more

The bag of seafood I got was amazing. My compliments to the cooks. It's got a crab shack feel to the location with people wrong there names on the walls. The gentlemen with a lovely accent, sat me, took my order and his professionalism was out standing. He should probably be the manager based on my brief experience. People that work here...... women on speaker phone logging into someone's email account. All on speaker phone, the guy said his email and password and all was to be heard. I addressed it and found out she was the general manager. I was completely taken back by this. Remember lead by example. Not do as I say not as I do. read more

When I'm craving a crab boil, this is amazing! I love the Cajun spice and it's overall so good! The service is either really good, or not great. I think the vibe of the restaurant is cute for a crab shack. Definitely, one of my go to spots! read more

If you're familiar with Joe's Crab Shack, this spot has a similar feel, but with slightly different model. You build your steam bag, choose a sauce and spice level. Anything like potatoes, corn, sausages added are an extra charge. Butter is an extra charge. Overall, the pricing is much higher than what you would get at a comparable place like Joe's. We ordered the Boil for Two which came with 2 lobster tails, shrimp, snow crab, king crab, red potatoes, and corn. The Traditional Steam surprised us in that it had a strong Old Bay seasoning sauce, it was good, but be warned, the menu makes it seem like it's just steamed with water. I think we probably needed to say No sauce, just didn't understand the menu. We also ordered a side of the Trifecta Sauce for an extra charge. The seafood was good, no complaints really, just felt like we should've had more of everything in our bag. We would order the Trifecta Sauce again on the side or maybe as a part of the Steam bag. Had a really nice savory flavor. Our service was friendly, but slow. Weren't acknowledged for almost 15 minutes after being seated. They have a large menu with other items outside of a steam bag, lobster rolls, clam chowder, fish and chips, etc. I think we will go back to give it another shot someday, try some of the other menu items. read more

Went to angry cab for a 21 birthday party and it was the worst serves we have ever had, the waitress would forget to bring any requested item (ie: drink refills, condiments). The food was cold and over cooked and for being out first time here to celebrate sadly for what we paid. It will not be a place I ever go to again nor would I ever recommend. So disappointed we were so excited to start. read more

Definitely give this restaurant a try! The staff is very lovely and friendly. We took my mom for her birthday and they made sure the whole restaurant knew haha. All 6 people of are party was pleased with their food! From seafood to chicken tenders we were very happy with what we received. read more

The food here is delish! Be ready to get your money worth of seafood! The sauce to get is the Trifecta which is garlic, lemon pepper and Cajun! Super delish! Something that is new to the menu but also not in the menu is Queen Crab!! A littler similar to Snow Crab but more on the thicker side. Meaning more meat!! Way to go Queens! Each order of the Queen Crab is running about $42. Totally worth it. Meaty and delish!! One thing I found different from the last time I went was they only gave scissors. Last time they gave scissors and Crab Crackers. The scissors now have an attachment similar to the cracker tool. All the employees were super nice. I was even allowed to take my own ramen add it to my bag!! A must try. Employees Gilbert and Rafa were super nice definitely up sold us on drinks and the side orders. A go to drink to try is the Mexican candy drink!! Also the Estrella Micheladas are yummy! They really do have a michelada and it's not just a pre made Bloody Mary mix. Spiced to perfection! read more
