I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE!!! I'm originally from New York, and this is the closest place like home to me!! My entire family comes to either this location or the Alma school one. Their service is always casual and great! Just what we like. If you go in at least once a month, someone will remember your name. Just the the tv show "cheers"! Haha. Funny but true. It's like going back home, sitting around the table, and having someone in the family throw a bunch of seafood in the pot, ya have a few drinks, laugh a little and just enjoy yourself. Most definitely recommend ANGRY CRAB! Love ya Victoria! ( sorry, she's our girl!!) but no worries.... we'll share her. She's fantastic! Cheers read more

Not impressed! $90 for the Shack Mixed Bag. When we recieved our bag and an empty bucket we didn't get any utensils. When we asked for some we were told they were being washed, but the party next to us all received everything they needed minutes later. When we asked a second time we were each given a fork. The Shack Bag only had half of one ear of corn and one potato the size of a golf ball; how is this a meal? In all, we will not be back, and we will be sure to pass on our experience with everyone we know. Also, $11.50 (during happy hour) for a top shelf long island ice tea in a pint jar was a too pricey, but cudoes to the bar tender, it was made correctly. All said...the Angry Crab Shack will never see us again; we did leave angry and hungry. read more

Ordered delivery from this place. We ordered the catfish dinner and hot wings. The catfish was okay, but we didn't get the sides that were supposed to accompany it. The wings were completely unsauced, dry and bland. Also ordered a piece of cornbread and it was about an inch across and flavorless. Will not eat here (or order from here) again. read more

Such a sad tale. I usually like angry crab but this time the oysters were old and tasted fishy. They were gritty and left a metallic taste in my mouth. We took both the char grilled and raw oysters back. I had to spit my bite out on a napkin. Then we ordered a pound of shrimp with a potato for 50c and sausage... look at the size of my potato in the picture. Yep. I didn't eat it out of principle. Last time I'm going here. Crap food. You'll get sick here. I definitely left as an angry crab. read more

The parking lot was a mess but... They were prompt when I walked in to pick up my order, They were very nice, accommodating and the lady who took my order did not rush me and explained everything very well that I asked about during a time that I know she was very busy. We got the 0 heat trifecta sauce in our boil and we ate it about an hour or so after picking it up and everything was still amazing. We will return. Thank you to the staff at the Guadalupe location. read more

We had a party of six after almost two hours we where seated which I understand we are limited seating, but when we asked to the manager to be split he just didn't understand.. The irritation level was high until DeAndre came over and made the wait all with while! He was fast friendly and fun! Thank you DeAndre for making one of my best friends birthday dinner worth the wait! You truly are doing a fantastic job! read more

Happy to report that our most recent visit to this Angry Crab Shack location was much better! The clams were all opened, the oysters were cleaned appropriately and our server Marco was pleasant and attentive. Looking forward to our next visit! Heads up - this place is always busy for dinner so plan on a wait. read more

BOMB food and flavors! Love the atmosphere of this place. Portions are good size and staff is friendly.

Great place for groups, we recommend the trifecta if you're looking for a sauce to try. It's a winner

My family and I went in last weekend for lunch. They weren't busy. We were waiting on two more people. The waitress served us drinks, never came back to check on us, our other people came. Waitress still ignored us. I asked for another server, still nothing. Another waitress walked by and ignored us when we tried to get their attention. Finally got fed up after about an hour had gone by and no service. Manager came over, with a bit of an attitude not seeing our frustration. We paid for our drinks and left. Highly disappointed in the service, we come here pretty often and have never been treated so poorly. They could've done better read more

We love love love Angry Crab. So happy to see them doing so well. Thank you for bringing this taste of the Gulf South to the PHX area!!

Salmon with the first level of heat was perfect! I did think it was way overcrowded and noisy, but it was a Friday night. Should consider expanding or opening another location. Tried the alligator and it does taste like chicken. read more

If you want good seafood stay away and go to hot n juicy. Fish is bland no seasoning and crab there is disgusting. No way there food health grade is an A. Inside is disgusting. read more

Let me just say, my post Covid visit to Angry Crab was awesome. My temperature was taken by a staff member and a few questions were asked of me before going in. The place was super clean and the tables were well spaced apart. Finally, the crab legs potatoes and corn did not disappoint. I really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. read more

Tried it again for the first time in 8 months, maybe it's just their style... Had fried oysters and they were overcooked with a lot of breading,The only type of fish that should be fried hard is catfish.. well at least I'd gave them another try read more

You'd think this place would be a lot more professional and presentable to customers, but our crowd walks in greeted by a girl wearing a tank top bent over revealing All...and I mean All her breath to us! We looked at each other in astonishment and disgust, turned our 9 person crowd around & left! Just trash Jeez..get some damn class!! read more

Not impressed. The Mac n cheese was a super small portion that I had to order two for my daughter. The atmosphere is fun but I really didn't enjoy the crab. It was Meh at best. By the end of the night the portions were small, the tab was large and I got food poisoning. Pass read more

Food is good. No gater, no Blue crab, No lobster under 2 pounds. No sausage, No French fries. REALLY, We dropped almost 200 dollars and still changed for kids meals. Get out. read more

I really was excited when they opened up and have enjoyed them once or twice until tonight, but when I complained to the owner about the cushion at the table l setting in a hole, he was rude, his reply was well move, I had lobster for the first time usually crab, the lobster was was bad, sad but I won't be back. Dont waist your money read more

My favorite crab joint in town, period. Good hush puppies too. The service is reliable and the food is prompt.

The food was okay but for the price it wasn't enough. I ordered the shrimp boil for 23.00 and only recieved 1 full cluster and a few broken ones you would think ot would be so much more. read more

Don't go to this one. You're better off going to hot'n'juicy. POOR QUALITY CONTROL at this one. I started going to Phx location after 3 times of terrible sauce. I even emailed the company last year and NO Response. The sauce I had (aways trifecta medium) on friday 6/24 was INEDIBLE. Absolutely terrible. I used to to here at least once a month. read more

I always wanted to try this place. Its so popular. I don't get this place? Its steamed vomit in a bag. Very disgusting but it seems that's what's popular. Try it and let me know what you think. read more

Best place for seafood in the Mesa area. Great service reasonable prices. Definitely stop by if your in the area. read more

Angry Crab Shack - Shrimp with heads removed trifecta hot style - Seafood Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

This place is very good for seafood. Great atmosphere. It's just way way overpriced for the food that they sell.

We've been here countless times . Tonight's dinner is a disappointment. We ordered 2 lbs of "LIVE " crawfish and some others but crawfish came out tasted funny , seemed like 1/3 of the pound are dead ". It'has that rotten smell ! So the waitress changed the live to the frozen ones ! We ended up did not touch those 2 bls of frozen ! We are there to enjoy "fresh " not rotten or frozen ! I came home with an upset stomach the whole night . Even though we weren't charged the 2 bls of crawfish but please be sure food quality and safety are what keep your customers coming back . read more

They have a pretty good selection and the food is good. They service was pretty good as well. The only thing I didn't like is that the food came by the pound and you couldn't alternate it to a half pound. Other than that, I have no complaints. Side Note: They have a level 6 seasoning thats not on the menu that will knock your socks off! read more

Angry Crab Shack - Cstfish basket with a side of the level 6 seasoning - Seafood Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

See all

I'm gonna start with the negatives. Lobster rolls I'd pass on. It was lobster salad (everything chopped so tiny and held together with Mayo) on a grilled hot dog bun (or Texas toast) either way really not what I was expecting. But I am spoiled by my visits to Boston. Pound of king crab small (due to the weight of the shells) We were a party of 8, 5 o'clock on a Saturday. Mostly positive Server Tammy very nice and pretty good. Pulled pork looked and told good by family member who doesn't eat seafood. Hush puppies good. Best meal at table was probably the EZ peel shrimp, trifecta sauce, wimpy heat, with sausage bag. Very tasty!!!! Noisy but not so much you couldn't converse. Nice to see families with young kids. read more

Overall, a great very informal seafood restaurant. Many choices and good quality food. We enjoy the atmosphere and the fish broil is great.

I needed some spicy food to fight off the cold and decided to try Mesa Angry Crab Shack and I am pleased I did . I ordered 1lb shrimp and Trifecta sauce with 2nd level heat. I got home opened the bag and started work on the shrimp which were cooked well and very spicy. I spent $17 with veteran discount which is really good. Service was quick and friendly. read more

Angry Crab Shack - Seafood Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

This place has gone downhill. Undercooked shrimp and overcooked salmon. It smells awful, there are flies everywhere. Boooo. There was sand in my vegetable boil bag. There were also unidentifiable veggies in there, some weird white blob thing. My experience was so bad that I will not be returning. read more

Prices were okay. Food was okay. Service was sub-par. No drink refills offered. We had to ask for napkins. Forks are plastic, so no good for digging into crab legs. Seafood choices are just that. Sides are extra. Any seafood you order is somewhat spicy as their basic choice, then you can choose to have it more spicy, but not less spicy. Seafood is served in plastic bags...no plates offered. My husband enjoyed his BBQ, but not enough to choose this place for BBQ. We won't be back. I've read other reviewers raves about Barb. Either got a different Barb or she was having an off night. Besides the complaints listed above about the service, I had ordered cornbread which I never got. I ended up calling her over and asking her to make sure to remove it from our ticket. I never did check to make sure she did that. read more

Pretty disappointed about my order. I had the pound of snow crabs and Char-grilled oysters. The lack of the meat in the crabs was disappointing. The oysters were small and burnt. Definitely not worth the $12. I had a better food experience at Boiling Crab, therefore I will NOT return to Angry Crab. read more

Today my wife and I went to this establishment on Guadalupe and Hawes in Mesa. We were seated and told someone would be right with us. We literally waited 10 minutes and no one came to even take our drink order. Another family walked in and within 20 seconds the waitress was taking their order. We got up and asked for a manager and here EXCUSE was they were doing shift change. The manager didn't even try to make this right. As a matter of fact she was down right sarcastic. Funny thing is the other family was waited on within seconds. The manager was upright rude, no apology and full of excuses. Needless to say we will NEVER visit this establishment again. People, don't waist your time going there! read more

This was a WOW restaurant! Really thought it was cute inside and so fun. Seafood wad amazing! Shrimp delicious. Loved the corn, potato and shrp in bag. I would skip vegetables. Brisket very good too. We thought it was a great value. read more

Every time I've come here our food has been great. Usually I get the seafood boil which is always great but recently I decided to try the shrimp and crab sandwich and my gf got the fish and chips. The sandwich was delicious, the fish n chips tasted good but they gave us like 3 medium sized pieces and just filled the rest of the space with fries. Would give 5 stars but the fish n chips portion disappointed me. read more

Angry Crab...yeah it is consistent across many spots. I have now been to 3 of them. The sauce spice levels are spot on. One is able to add items into your bag. I think the amount you get for the price and quality is right on. I also order the fried shrimp basket. The place is great. I'll be back for sure. read more

It was promising early on, but the long waits and inconsistent service have driven folks away. I gave them another try tonight for a pick-up order and was highly disappointed. Ordered two Caesar salads with grilled shrimp. $7 for 5 tiny grilled shrimp??!! Come on, man! You're lucky I had already gotten home or there might have been a scene! Called them back and Dawn was like...and? I feel you Dawn, and won't be back any time soon. read more

We love this place. The oysters are amazing! Trifecta got is or fav. Staff is always nice and helpful! We will definitly be back again and again and again lol.. read more

Angry Crab Shack - Charred oysters... So good!!! - Seafood Near Me - Mesa, Arizona

Went there on a wim with the family and you walk in and it looks clean and like it would be a ton of fun. It was both, the food I thought was really good. Seafood here in the valley is truly a hit or miss, unless your willing to spend $30 a plate. I loved the fact that you ate right off the table cloth it felt like I was in Louisiana even though I have never been! :) Its god for the kids, good for beer and they look like they can mix ups some pretty good cocktails as well. We had the King Crab legs and they were delicious. We were going to get the shrimp, but you can get shrimp pretty much anywhere so we splurged. Wasn't nuts about the oysters but that's probably because we had the best oysters known to man just outside of San Fran so we are a little spoiled. Overall great place to go and kick back and have some good food! read more
