Joe's Crab Shack

There was almost a 45 minute wait time. The playground in front of the restaurant definitely helped keep the kids entertained while we waited. Our server was FANTASTIC! He was attentive and always had a funny comment! The food arrived quickly and was delicious! There's plenty of parking available too! Bonus: there's also an ice cream shop across the street, if you still have room for desert!

This was our first visit with o Joe’s Crab Shack and it was anticlimactic. The appetizer, Fire Balls, were yummy with ranch on them but had little flavor without. If you like a little kick but not good on hot then these are perfect. The Jalapeño was enough to tingle your tongue but not be painful and the kick did not last long, no painful after-burn. The French fries that came with the fire balls were hot and crispy with soft centers. That was the only highlight to the food. We ordered the Pirate Platter with broccoli and East coast platter. The grilled shrimp in the Pirate Platter was so over cooked it reminded me of stale bubblegum. The seasoning was decent. The grilled tilapia was very greasy and the seasoning was tasteless. The fried fish batter was the consistency of cardboard, very hard to cut and tasted about the same. I took two bites and had to stop. The fried popcorn shrimp was standard, kind of hard to mess that up. I will say the the shrimp inside was tender which was a ple

Food was good, however ordering a dinner for two @ the rate of $82 was not worth it. There wasn’t enough food for 2 people and we ended up grabbing a snack somewhere else after we ate here. Server did his job, but was a little slow on refills and getting items for us. Food was delivered to us with out silverware, so we had to wait several minutes for server to come back for him to get the utensils for us. Sweet tea had some sweetness to it, but mainly water downed. My biggest complaint was the price of foot for two when the quantity of the food was pretty much for one person.
