Food is excellent. Wait staff is cheery. Music could use a tone down. Sounded more like something the staff would blast after hours. Perhaps something more appropriate for the type of food they serve.

The place is a little run down but the food is amazing. We both had the seafood boil and they were both top notch. Alma, our server, was very helpful and friendly. We have family coming into town next week and we'll bring them

Our room at the Hyatt was not ready when we arrived from the airport, so they suggested we get lunch next door at the Angry Crab Shack & BBQ. We weren't sure what to expect as we walked across the parking lot. We weren't even sure they were open. However, once we opened the door and walked inside, we were greeted by delicious smells and voices of other customers. We were there on a Wednesday afternoon and it was fairly empty. So no long wait list to get inside. Service was quick and efficient. Our server was super friendly and helped us select some favorites. She was right. Food was delicious. The atmosphere was very relaxed and fun. 'Graffiti' of signatures and messages were on everything. Reading everything written on the walls by our table helped us pass the time as we waited for our food, which did not take long. We ordered deep fried pickle chips, burger and fries, and catfish and fries. YUM!! What a pleasant surprise and a great find!

We stopped in at The Angry Crab Shack on Grant for a celebratory 4.0 grade point average! We had fried shrimp, clam chowder and of course a sea food boil. It was all very delicious and the wait staff (Amariz) was very attentive and courteous. We’ll definitely be coming back!
