My family and I came here for dinner and I did not disappoint! Pan Roast- not your traditional "Ritters" pan roast, this one was more "home style". Creamy tomato sauce which included chicken, sausage, shrimp, bacon and crab (additional $4.99). Came with fettuccine noddles (I got it on the side so my toddler was able to eat it). King Crab Legs with potatoes and sausage added- so much food! The legs were meaty!! The sausages were plump! So good!!! Shrimp medium spiciness - cooked well, not over cooked. Yelp check in for free Cajun Fries! The basket of fries were huge, and crispy! Only negative- Garlic burps for days... Everyone was so kind, friendly and attentive! read more

Came in for our cajun seafood cravings on a random weekday, this new restaurant is very well decorated with a fun and relaxing ambiance. Sister and I chose a comfy table in the back, patio seatings looked nice too but it was too warm to sit outside. The menus are typical but extensive Cajun seafood selections, we started off with Blue Moon and Sapporo draft, I love ice cold tap beers with fresh seafood, so comforting and satisfying. We ordered quite a few things to share, 2 lbs king crab legs that were $30 per lb that day, dozen of raw oysters, 2 lbs of crawfish, garlic noodles and Cajun fries that were free with Yelp check in. The seafood was very fresh and tender, we chose lemon pepper medium spicy for crawfish and garlic butter for king crab legs, the seasonings were so rich and flavorful that we enjoyed so much. Fries and noodles were not bad either that they were the perfect fillers. Food was very good mostly, the service was very friendly but a bit disorganized, they kept forgetting about things now and then. I understand it's a new place so the staffs were still trying to warm up on a lot of things, the food was so good that we will definitely be back whenever we want comfort cajun seafood. read more

I'm between three and four stars. The service here is a hit or miss. Sometimes, you get really attentive servers and others? I've left here wondering why we come back. Nevertheless, we come back so it's obviously more of a hit. The food is as expected. You get your seafood as requested. You add in corn, potatoes or whatever you'd like. The fries here are delicious, as is the fried fish. I mean, shoot. Anything fried is really great, am I right? But there's something about knowing how to not over cook things, especially seafood. There's a good dynamic of staff going on here but at times, I've wondered about the table situation. It's not the most effective. The last time that I came here, the service was off but I'll be honest, I'm thinking of having this tonight, hah. I know there are reviews for long waits, disappointment but .. I've never had to wait longer than 5 minutes to sit down. read more

I love this place and have NEVER complained about them before. So They close at 10pm, and I walked in at 9:12 pm. One person walked past me and welcomed be in. Once I got to the counter, this girl tells me that they are closed and they already had "last call". I specified that it is only 9:12 PM and they close at 10 PM and another maintained that they are no longer taking orders and that it's the dining room that closes at 10pm...... so if I sat in, I could've ordered?....... Anyway, Literally makes no sense. I could see if I was 15/20 minutes to closing, but damn near an HOUR is crazy. Not to mention, her attitude SUCKED, she said what she said then walked off. They claimed she was the manager, but I'm calling on Monday. If y'all wanna leave early then actually list your closing time earlier. For now on I'll take the drive to Gardena or Long Beach! read more

All my crab legs were damn near empty! Literally hollow with NO meat inside! Save your money, I do not recommend this place!

Love that they open early for lunch. The service was great and the food was really good too. Although I didn't care how the mussels tasted there I had better ones at another place but other than that I'll come back and recommend it. read more

This food was delicious! The spice was right and all the food was all fresh- in addition I can appreciate they have a sink in the open to wash your hands making it easy to go back you your table and not having to go to the restroom. read more

What a wonderful experience!!! Kevin our server is top rank! His manners and politeness is worth walking into the business itself. Now to the food preparation one word outstanding!! The Calamari was the best I have eaten the texture of the Calamari's was amazing. We had the Combo 3 Will worth the price. Come hungry you will walk out satisfied. read more

Service was great, but the sauce didn't have enough chunky garlic the way I like it at other seafood places. I did love the old school r&b music they were playing! read more

I was placed in the corner and was ignored which I understand but the food wasn't as good so it sucked. We ordered the Peeled shrimp add sausage add corn add potatoes mild: still spicy and was not as good as I thought. Better to save true few extra dollars and get the regular shrimp. But the potatoes were huge and honestly didn't have much flavor. The corn was great at least. We also ordered the fried oysters and fries: first off those fries are Cajun just a heads up and the fried oysters were just breading. Then he also ordered the crawfish and sadly it was a bad day where it was small and hard to peel and dried out. This is my second time trying this place and I'm still disappointed. Will not be back read more

I've been to many Cajun shrimp spot. This place was OK. I tried their CrabShack Style. It was kind of lacking flavor. It tasted like it was missing something or maybe that's just the way their mix was??? im not sure, but I was expecting their own kind of "shebang" I have to say their shrimps were good in size, I liked that. Service was good, the staffs were very nice and attentative. Check in on yelp for free Cajun Fries a plus!!! read more

The waitress we(party of 4) had was great!!!! However, the kitchen was completely making what they wanted and not what we ordered/the waitress put jn... we ordered the #2 seafood combo, no sausage & a the fried shrimp with garlic fries.. combo comes out with sausage.. we send it back.. #2 time we indulged only to find 3 pieces of sausage...we tell the manager one of us is pescatarian the manager comes and "gave us her free meal". The the shrimp and garlic fries were good so the pescatarian orders another.. which came out with Cajun fries. That's my story read more

We always call in and do take out, it's super efficient. The food is great, one of the best seafood boils in the South Bay!

Good customer service, and amazing food. Would highly recommend coming to eat here. Food came in a timely matter and no wait to be seated.

Been coming here for years, the food is great and the staff great. It's a great place to dine in.

The employees are rude, lazy and expect a tip. If it wasn't for the location and tasty food I'd have to cross this one off the list. Don't ever call in to place an order. The employees leave you on hold FOREVER!! I called over 10 times and when I finally got someone they immediately said hold on and left me on hold for over 15 minutes. My husband called while I was on hold and it kept going to an automated system saying there was no VM available. Not sure if this is an attempt to purposely tie up the line but It's quite maddening. I've actually sat in the restaurant, called and watched the employees ignore the phone while hanging at the register, screwing around in the kitchen and completely abandoning customers after they drop off the food! And this is why A.I. is taking over! Where's Rosie the Robot when you need her/him?? read more

Pretty good! Not really the biggest fan of the carb boils cause they usually don't end up tasting that great... but this spot was great. Small spot which is also great cause it's not crowded and fills up just right! Great deal on the combos to tbh. Combo 2 is like 85 bucks and you get 4 lbs of seafood . Chill vibe. Nice crew of people that work there. No complaints. read more

My son loves ordering from this place. His favorite go to place if he wants to eat crab. Service is good, hard to get tables sometimes but expected for a place that is busy like this. read more

Food is always a hit here, even the service 10/10! Would recommend this to everyone who loves great seafood and great service.

Food was good. Service was quick. Restaurant is easily located. Ambiance is cool. Is a bit challenging to talk due to the metal chairs scraping against the concrete floor. It could help to ask dine-in patrons to pick up the chairs when moving them instead of dragging. Or put felt tabs in the bottom of the chairs so they move easier on the floor. read more

Do not eat here!! They have roaches, I saw them crawling around the restaurant, literally made me gag. The service was great though.

We were craving their garlic noodles. Also ordered calamari, shrimp n fries, fish n chips and garlic bread. Everything came out one by one within about ten minutes of each other. Everything came hot and delicious. No complaints. Good flavor with their cajun spices and the dipping sauces were good too. Service was attentive. Came by a few times to check on us. read more

The food is amazing but the cooks don't wear gloves I witnessed them in the back playing around throwing stuff at each other eating the food as they are cooking it. the waitresses are goofy and play around a lot and they also add tips you didn't approve .. I ordered to go paid for my food didn't leave a tip and when I checked my statements I noticed the waitress added 20% for her tip that I didn't authorize ... The owner has a bunch of loud kids working this place and they have no filter on their mouths the whole staff was young and Hispanic my thought they will be sued and shut down with in a year hope the owner gets his staff together cause the food is fire read more

Waited 30 mins to be seated, super under staffed. We just left cause it's taking too long.

This place is extremely good! The service is impeccable and quick!! The spicy crab shack style is so goooooooooood!!! Y'all have to try their Michelada, it's yummy!! We will definitely be coming here more often! read more

Spicy sea food! Went in to the Crab Shack got a pound of shrimp, and snow crab. Got the Cajun medium spicy! Let me tell you for a person that likes heat! I couldn't think of getting a level higher! The food was fantástic! Got corn, sausage, side or rice and garlic fries! The garlic fries were so crisp and flavorful! Washed it all down with a side of mango tea! Be prepared to pay $$$ pricy! But well worth it! read more

I just called this restaurant that totes that they close at 10:00pm. Being that u have worked in the service industry for over 20yrs. I have never been to a restaurant that stopped for asking Togo orders more than 15mins before the restaurant closed. I couldn't even order of I sat in the restaurant. My business was turned away, which is why I made this post. At 9:45 should be the last call for food. Which is in 10mins. Anything else is subject to hourly employees who want to enjoy their Sat night.....No worries, I will go and spend my money with people who appreciate a dollar. Have a good night, and learn your clientele read more

Our server Danny was the BOMB Super friendly and attentive, we will definitely be back!

Hair in food, owner only offered 15% off food. They were not friendly or apologetic about it. Do not eat here ! read more

The Crab Shack - Hair in rice, owner only offered 15% off whole order !! Absolutely unacceptable. Don't eat here. - Seafood Near Me - Carson, California

First impressions are super important and let's just say I wasn't too impressed. Ordered takeout and asked for Cajun fries and extra corn in my bag. Got the wrong fries and my extra corn that I paid for was nowhere to be found. I understand with the whole pandemic businesses are probably rushing to fulfill orders but at least get it correct. As far as taste, it is not bad but just wasn't what I was expecting. Maybe I'll give this place another shot but as of right now I'll probably stick to boiling crab. read more
