We have gone to the Alma School location for a couple years so we were so excited to hear that the one in Mesa opened up. We went on a Friday night after 7:30 and only had to wait about 20 minutes. We ordered our usual snow crab legs and shrimp trifecta 2. It was so delicious. Our server was great and let us know that soon they will be open for lunch. As an appetizer we always get the fried shrimp basket with cajun fries. And it was awesome as well. I have tried other fried dishes at the other location and wasn't impressed but the shrimp is yummy. Fun place to go, will definitely return! read more

This is a great place for seafood. Never disappointed and the service is great. Staff is very friendly. Wish the crawfish season was longer read more

I've been eating at the Alma School location since it's opened and was so excited when I found out there was one closer to home (the BBQ was a plus). In my bag of mussels, that I ordered because they were out of clams (wah), the trifecta was super watery and not like I was used to but it was made up when our King Crab came out in the perfect trifecta mixture that I know oh-so-well. My Dad and brother were pretty pleased with the brisket and ribs, too. Because the place is pretty new, I expected some hiccups in service or some inconsistencies in the food but I was very impressed! Excited to come back! Hoping they'll have clams next time. read more

We just discovered this location. The Cajun catfish was awesome. Frog legs were tasty. Nice atmosphere. Great service. Price was. $$ good. A winner. I say try it. read more

If you want to come over and see abunch of crabs and Worms. This is the best place to eat

Its awesome experience, great food. Bartenders are really cool. I live the environment. They have fresh sea food and that's rare to find here in AZ read more

excellent food and good service. Best crab I have had in Arizona. Only negative is they do not have Tabasco for the oysters and they do not serve Anchor Steam at the Bar. otherwise, you will not find better crab in Arizona. read more

Love this place!! Great food! Fun atmosphere. The service is very good. The fried cod is prepared perfectly. read more

Was not thrilled by any margin. Fried Seafood was mediocre at best, but priced decently. Cornbread doesn't even rate. Screwed up my beer order, then held both my girlfriend and I's beers for ten minutes because "an orange crisis" when neither of us cared about an orange slice. Her food was fast, my food came out ten minutes after hers, I had gotten the shrimp. Which came, in a bag. With 1/2 a corn cob, in the bag. Shells still on the shrimp. For $25... No silverware/plastic ware/gloves offered. I'd understand the price if it was served with any semblance of ease but this was not the case. It came served as if I walked into a ran down Chinese buffet where I could have ate more for $10 with less work and better service. read more

Great food,reasonable prices, good service. Shrimp poboy is good. Will defiantly return.

Good service, good food (comes out fast!), good atmosphere. My son had snow crab, I had shrimp Po-boy, my daughter had chicken fingers (she's picky), my hubby had two meat platter. Nothing short of delicious! read more

Worse seafood I've ever had. I'm from the Pacific NW and know good seafood and the Alaskan king crab was horrible. It was soggy and had a off taste to it. My husband's shrimp was bad too. We couldn't eat the meal. We will never eat here were again. I guess we will have to wait until we get back to WA to get good seafood. read more

The decor and atmosphere is indicative of an old crabbing hut. Been here twice and each time was the same off beat service. Kinda like oh here's your food bye. Did not care for having to dehead the shrimp or the very fishy smells to everything including veggie bag. Prices are in my opinion very high compared to quality and quantity. There are other places around to spend our money at. read more

Literally one of the worst restaurants I've been to in my life. I went there with my parents for dinner. Both my mom and I each got the dungeness Crab and my dad the 1/2 slab of ribs. They don't bring everything out at once , so my dad is done with his ribs before the crabs even show up. 2 bags of crabs and one bag of vegetables are dropped on the table. all of it is drowning in sauce. So much so it seeps through the bag as it's delivered and it will get over everything. So much sauce you can't tell what the vegetables are. Now how to eat it?? They give a nut cracker and hammer and plastic cutlery. First crab place in my life that expects you to use a plastic fork to get the meat out of the crab, no seafood forks. What to do with a bag of drowning vegetables to share - pass the bag back and forth? We ask for a couple of plates to dump the vegetables out and thefirst waitress says sure and then never returns. We ask a 2nd waitress for plates and then are told that they don't have plates. All the main dishes are served in plastic baskets, I get that. But when in your life do you walk into a restaurant and ask for a plate and get told that they don't have any to give out for your use and then condescendingly asked "are we ok with that". What do you respond to a waitress telling you they don't have plates. So how did the waitress think we were going to share a bag of vegetables drowning in sauce? Pour it out onto our on table? Pass it back and forth and take turns feeding from the trough? Even though this is a bbq and crab place where they give you bibs to wear while eating the crab, at the end they don't bring you a wet nap towelette? Have the owners never walked into a joe's crab shack or any bbq place in their life? So your hands are stained from the sauce and crab , and the restaurant seems not to notice or care. So you can just go to the washroom to clean up or use the bizarre hand washing sink that sits in the middle of the dining room? The service is slow and rude, and only serve to make your experience worse. read more

We love this place! Food, service and atmosphere is always great! If you haven't been here, GO!

This isn't fresh off the boat on the coast seafood but it's very good considering the desert location. Messy meal (be ready to dig in, gloves provided) - a good variety of seafood to choose from and you can tailor the sauce and spices to your liking. We ate at the bar - the servers were friendly and service was great. We enjoyed it a lot and will be back! read more

Awesome atmosphere! Great food! Great service! We were a group of six for my husbands birthday and our drinks were always full and they were very accommodating and let us store his birthday cake in their fridge. Just don't wear white unless you wanna double up on the bibs! read more

I love this place! It is always good! Never disappointed! And the style is awesome. The crab is my favorite with the trifecta sauce!

You gotta try the trifecta salmon comes with veggies. I get a number 2 on spice cuz I could barely finish my meal with a 3. Cajun fries are the bomb if you can get the kitchen to cough them up. Last few times I've ordered a basket either they forget or its not a priority to them since it's not part of a dish I guess. But still delicious food and drinks! Last time I was in they had reggae on and I was in my happy place! Thanks Brandon for your awesome service? You are great! read more

So we had been to Alma school location many times and LOVED it...then this popped up way closer to us. First visit a few months ago was disappointing in comparison but we figured it was growing pains and gave them another shot...Glad we did because they are closer and just as good! read more

My husband and I went to the angry crab and was disappointed when we sat at the bar to place an order, first my husband had to go and get our menu's than after looking at it I kind of lost my apatite because it was changed and changed for the worst I asked the server about it and he was very aggressive with me telling me it changed 8 months ago saying this and that in a very aggressive tone. I was kind of in shock I don't know his name and should of got it, but he was kind of plump short dark hair had a dark blue shirt on we just walked out and went for lunch elsewhere and if he keeps talking to the customers like that you are going to have a lot of walk outs. I will not be going to your restaurant again read more

Great food and service! New location is awesome! Staff is super friendly! Try it all! This place is a must go! You will love it!

If you are from the south and know your poboys...DO NOT rpt DO NOT order one from here. It's a shrimp sandwich on a split top roll like from Costco. Anyone knows the bread makes a poboy as much as what you put in it. The hard crusty fried shrimp was equally bad and I think there were like 3. It was the saddest excuse for a poboy I had ever witnessed. Of course I get the place isn't called Angry Poboy...it's the angry crab. Not really sure I'll be back in any case. read more

The service is terrible, if I could give them a whole bunch of zeroes I would!!! our party of 13 got here before another party of 14. They told us 59 minutes and when I checked at 55 minutes they told us we were next. Suddenly they sat the party of 14 saying that the party size was different. Are these kids at the front that naive to think we are this dumb??? I'm not sure if this is discrimination or what but it is unacceptable. read more

Service mediocre. Not the proper utensils for crab and styrofoam plates. Plastic fork won't get the crab out. Joes is better

CELIAC FRIENDLY!!! Whoohoo another place to eat that gets it right. Food was really good servers Barb and Holly went out of there way to ensure a safe and comfortable dining experience for our entire table. read more

Not impressed. Tammy our server was very nice however the food was less than memorable! We ordered 2lbs live crawfish with lobster and when they came out they were awful!! They had none of the seasoning on them and the bag was so filled with water which led me to believe they sold us frozen crawfish at the live price. Then we showed Tammy how watery they were and she brought us two side of diff spices and actually charged us for one of them! We were not impressed and totally disappointed! If you want the same style seafood but better taste go to HOT AND JUICY in Tempe!!! We will not be going back....waste of money!! read more

I had high hope's when I went here for my birthday. We dropped $80 on horrible king crab legs and a very scary looking smoked chicken. The food was awful. My crab was tasteless. It tasted like it was frozen and reheated. We rarely spend this much money on dinner. It was a huge disappointment. Next time I want good seafood, I will stick with the Salt Cellar, at least there you get what you pay for. read more

I love this place. I have been to many of the other locations and the team here is by far and above the best. Food is always amazing and always cooked perfectly. Eric is an outstanding bartender and will not leave you with an empty glass! Noel is a fantastic server, who makes dining at AC a blast! No other place like it and there is no good copy cats out there IMO. read more

This was our first time at this location and we were celebrating a friend's birthday...Cheyenne, our waitperson, was very nice and competent...The food was great and we had a good time! Highly recommend! read more

We loved this place. They do serve very differently. Barb let us now how it all worked before ordering. We had the calamari to start. The calamari was good but unevenly seasoned some parts were really salty. But the calamari its self was good and you get a good size basket of them. First off you order by the pound and when its after a busier day you may be forced to buy over a two pound lobster or crab if you want that because the options run low as the business gets busy. But that would be too much of the same thing for us. So we ordered the shrimp with trifecta sauce and medium spices as well as mussels with garlic medium. They give it to you in a bag with the side inside. I had the sausage and corn which was bomb. The waiters were all uppity several of them with quirky personalities. You can make a mess of your meal, they lay paper for the tables and give you a bucket to throw the shells in. Everything needs to be cracked and shelled unless you order the heads off the of the shrimp for 2 dollars more. Definitely will go back and have already told several people that they should come here. Oh and there is plenty to read on the wall. read more

I paid for a 2.7 lb lobster and it had very little meat. Not even a quarter of a lb. Paid over $110 for a $40 meal. The little meat I had was good. Lol read more

I love their shrimp and hush puppies. Didn't like the edamame, but I just won't order it again. The shrimp is HUGE!

Excellent boiled seafood by the pound. Choice you sauce and spice. You can add corn, potatoes, sausage. Good selection of beers. The place is really GREAT read more

My sister and I were here last week and we had a marvelous time and devious food. It was my first time here. My sister is from New York City and said she can not get any crab that tastes this good in NY. She waits till she comes to Mesa to eat crab. Our waiter was so much fun and helpful. The food came to us quickly , faster than I thought it would I am going back to get crab this weekend so the rest of my family can taste it. Thank you again for everything. Great great service all around. read more

ACS is great! This is the second time I had been here but took my brother who loves crab. We all enjoyed our food, the only critique is that there aren't really any options for people who really just want the flavor of the crab without any grill because the focus is on the different flavored boils. read more

Spoke to Gm Joe about gift card issue. Went in a talked to Alison, the manager at that location and they rectified the problem by issuing me a $25.00 gift card and $10.00 gift card. Thank you guys for stepping up and giving A+ customer service! read more

We ate here for mother's day. Food was great. Service was awesome. Barb was great. They were very busy but very attentive. We will be back for sure. We would recommend to everyone to eat here. read more

This was a great! It was really nice to get shell fish that didn't taste like a fish tank. The customer service was very caring and ready to answer any questions. I will not be going back to a chain sea food restaurant. read more

Definitely my favorite seafood location in the east valley. Food and service are always on point. Thanks Angry Crab!!!!
