We love having a crab shack here in Ahwatukee. Great parking. Nice clean restaurant & very friendly staff. We have been here on the weekend and also during the week - service & food quality remains consistent. Personal Fav is the Cajun Garlic shrimp then add potato & sausage for a good mix of textures & taste. My ONLY "note"....eating is a multi sense experience. Eyes, nose, mouth & Ears. The music did not match the theme or vibe, at times it was a bit jarring. Try adding jazz or blues type background music to complete the Experience . My kiddos will not eat seafood (yet, we will get there) so we get them a Chicken Tender meal and that chicken is so fresh & "tender"! Nicely breaded, crisp not soggy. Crispy skinny fries. Good job read more

It's was so good we had to come back for round 2 on day 2 Same great service. The special! 1 lb of shrimp with the trifecta sauce, 1 snow crab cluster, corn and a potato. SO GOOD. WAIT...AMAZING. The sauce! The sauce! The sauce would taste good on a rock. Pecan praline ice cream to finish. A total win. I'm addicted. This is my neighborhood. Our household budget needs a new line item titled LA Crab House Ahwatukee. And these are great people. That makes it all even better. read more

We came here to celebrate my friend's birthday, and it ended up being such a great choice. The service was wonderful, our server was incredibly friendly and attentive the entire night. We ordered the big platter to share between the four of us, and everything was absolutely delicious. The atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and we genuinely had a great time. We'll definitely be back! read more

This place was really good, I'll be back. I ordered the Dungeness crab clusters and the soft shell crab. The seasonings were on point and there was so much soft shell crab, other places like this usually give you two crabs cut in half, so four pieces total. They played really good music too, so that's a plus. Lastly, our server was awesome, super friendly! read more

Dropped in randomly one evening. The place was pretty sparse, not many customers on the evening we went. Wherever was polite and attentive but the food was not very good. We took the leftovers (because we didn't eat much there due to it being mediocre) leftovers ended up getting tossed out. I personally would not recommend. read more

Atmosphere The restaurant has a casual, laid-back vibe, suitable for families and groups. Decor is themed around a coastal seafood shack, contributing to the overall dining experience. Pricing Prices are generally considered reasonable for the quality and quantity of food offered.

The vibes? Casual but electric, yet again. The service? Canela... attentive, genuine, and FAST. And the food? Let me just say this: I will be dreaming about that buttery garlic crab boil for the rest of my adult life, a second time. We ordered the special with shrimp, corn, potato, and cluster crab. Perfection a second time... seasoned, messy (in the best way), and came out piping hot. The flavors hit hard without overpowering the seafood. We were elbow-deep in sauce and loving every second. Shoutout to our server who kept the napkins flowing and made sure our drinks were always full. It is perfect loud, it's fun, and unapologetically indulgent. Whether you're with friends or on a seafood mission solo, this is the spot. Just be ready to get messy and leave full, happy, and plotting your return read more

Was super excited to visit this new location, since we often go to the Mesa location. The restaurant is a okay size, a bit smaller than their other locations. The menu was really similar, but didn't have ramen on it like the other locations. The waitress was friendly, and our food was okay. It had a slight different taste, but it wasn't bad. Everything was going okay, until it came down to paying. We paid with our card, and when we got the booklet back our card was not in there. We looked for it everywhere before letting the waitress know it was missing in case it fell. She looked for it in the back and it was no where to be found. We waited a bit incase it came up, but nothing. The card was charged, but never returned. :( read more

We tried this place for the first time last night and it was delicious. The service was good but we got our appetizer after the food was delivered. I did not care for the fried calamari but everything else was great! I think the prices are reasonable. I had the special of a lobster tail, lb of shrimp, corn on the cob and a potato. Absolutely worth the $25. I also liked that the restaurant was very clean. read more

LA Crab Shack - Dinner special. A lobster tail, a pound of shrimp, corn on the cob and a potato. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Great food at a reasonable price & music. One thing though. Waitress spoke a little bit fast & was kind of in a rush. Probably because she's the only one there at the time I came & there were quite a few people. In that case, might I suggest hire another waitress or waiter. Otherwise the ambience was great &!I would recommend this place. read more

Lunch Food was great. Fried oysters. Music not so good. Awful and loud Will return for dinner. Hope the music is softer anyway read more

Service was impeccable. The food not so much. It was very peppery. It wasn't for me. I do want to emphasize that if the food was good to me we would go everyday just because the waitstaff was so great! read more

Loved it! Everything was so good! We got crab and shrimp. We sampled all the sauces and they were all so good. Customer service was great and the music was fire. Highly recommend. read more

Food was DELICIOUS! My usual go to for seafood boil was Angry Crab Shack, but I feel like it's always been a hit or miss for me. I ordered 1 lb head on shrimp with the house special seasoning, it was on point. The prices were also affordable and not too crazy, I definitely recommend if you're searching for THAT seafood spot. Service was also quick and super friendly. Bring the business here, it's well deserved! read more

We wanted a seafood boil and decided to try this place while we were on the north end of Phoenix. We were one of the first couples in for lunch and the service was good and food delivered quickly. We liked the décor and laid back vibes while we were there. Even though the flavors weren't our favorite in Phoenix, we would definitely eat here again. read more

The service was fast and friendly. We went for Happy Hour and we were blown away! Wine $3.50 for a generous pour of pino grigio that paired nicely with a hearty gumbo and a plate of fried goodies straight from Cajun country! The remolaude sauce and ranch were my favorite. The atmosphere was casual and the prices were great. My husband and I love good Louisiana cooking and this place has it! Definitely my new go to place. Next time crab legs! read more

Very disappointed. Drove 30 minutes to pick up our order of fried frog legs, fried calamari, and fried gator. All three were very chewy. Obviously over fried. Very disappointed. read more

I walked in with low expectations. Not to name names, but I've been to a few other restaurants with the same theme, but the yelp reviews peaked my interest. I was pleasantly surprised; what I really liked is the menu was very diverse and offered plates if you're not interested in the "bag". I was told the most popular item was the "bag"so we decided to get it. We got the snow crab and the easy peel shrimp with mild house sauce. The sauce was amazing, I could not stop eating it. And what was also very surprising was the corn wasn't mush. I would definitely recommend and will be back. read more

Terrible service. Unfriendly, impatient, and not attentive. The server, literally laid a bag of cooked oysters down in front of me and walked away leaving no utensils or anything else. I will not return. Very rude service. read more

Tried it for the first time today. My driving factor was the Chargrilled oysters and they did not disappoint. Super good. We had the sweet corn fritters, fried okra and they both were yummy. My wife has the shrimp/ crab special which was a great deal and very tasty. Juliet was an excellent server. Plenty of restaurant space, which surprised us since it looked smaller from the outside. We will definitely be back!! read more

Amazing service! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious and very well priced considering that it is seafood. read more

Our server wasn't real knowledgeable about where the seafood was from or the preparation. The place was clean and pretty quiet. It is just like the old Crab Shack restaurant. I thought the fried frog legs tasted like they were cooked in old oil. But it was my first experience having them, so maybe it was me. My partner had cajon fettuccine and really enjoyed it. They have alligator bites but we didn't try it. Everyone's tastes are different so I'd give it try to see if suits you. read more

Service was amazing. Food was great too. Didn't realize how much work it is to eat crab legs. Not sure the wife wants to struggle through dinner but I'll probably return when she's out of town again. read more

Service was great, server was wonderful. The breaded cod and jumbo shrimp good, hush puppies and dipping sauce excellent; what we were told was ranch was not good, tartar and cocktail sauces off. Enjoyed the ambiance, will try again. read more

Came in during Father's Day cause we had heard about the location opening up. Wow I'm so glad we came in! From the food to the service everything was great. The restaurant itself was clean and very cute. The kids loved the pirate theme. They also had a handwashing station which was super convenient. The bathrooms were also gorgeous and most of all clean! The wall tile is beautiful it made me feel like I was in a spa for a moment. L For food we opted to try the jumbo seafood platter since it had a bit of everything. We tried their new Cajun dizzle flavor and it was BOMB! The server explained it as a viet Cajun sauce So garlicky and tangy it was amazing. We also got their oysters and Cajun shrimp Alfredo. The oysters were superb and super fresh! And the Alfredo was great too definitely worth the risk as someone who's lactose intolerant lol. We definitely may have over ordered lol we had a group of five and we were stuffed and still had left overs to take home. I'm tempted to come back during the week already since they've got a happy hr with some good looking deals. read more

I ordered the 4 lb bag for take out for my mom's birthday. We had headless shrimp, mussels, and 2 orders of dungeness crab clusters. The bag also came with free sausage, corn, and boiled eggs. I feel like the food was a good value for the price and very tasty. I called the restaurant for a better breakdown of the sauces, and the lady pointed me to the house mix. Great choice! My kids had the chicken tenders with fries and they enjoyed them as well. I'll definitely be eating from this restaurant again. read more

My take out order of prawns and fries were horrible..I order thus because I know its no way to mess it ip.. but, the ftozen fries tasted old and the shrimp were fried away to hard, they were almost burnt... I threw it away..I went back to complain. Never eat here. read more

First time here, we really liked it. The food and spices used were really good. Good music and great service. I'd come back.

Always love coming here, specials are great! Staff is always awesome the place is always clean! 10/10

Wife and I love this restaurant. We've been twice in the 2 weeks it's been open. Food is fresh and cooked to perfection... Louisiana style. Happy Hour is noon to 6 and the drinks are just the topper for a great Cajun meal. Service is OUTSTANDING and only compliments the meal. We are counting the days until we return. A new star in Ahwatukee!!! read more
