    The food it's live crawfish based review so I've tried most of their locations and have had exceptional service and food. HERE NEVER AGAIN! I mentioned the first pound was over cooked hard to peel and asked to cook them a little less bartender did so not a huge change in quality but I know the effort was there once shift change the experience plummeted QUICKLY. WAY OVER COOKED! only this location with this issue though. This place their ambiance is larger and offer patio dining their bartenders are very green after not drinking anything including water and eating 3 pounds of crawfish 2 alcoholic drinks prior I was told I was cut off after I finished pound 3 because I ordered a third alcoholic drink. Confused still today I'm confused I had been there since 2 and it was now 6 because I know my limits with food and alcohol. I still tipped 10% but as someone who tips great it was more charity than deserving. I would recommend any location outside this one.

    Usually, we love coming to angry crab shack. We've tried many around the valley. This one was a little slow to greet us and we saw others have the same issue upon arrival. The food was tasty and the server was nice. Nothing notable to say that makes this angry crab shack stand out from any others.

    If I could give more than 5 , I absolutely would! The food was incredible, and our server, Mars, went above and beyond to make our experience perfect. The assistant manager even stopped by to share some great tips for enjoying the crab and lobster -- such a nice touch! Our party of 15 couldn't stop raving about everything we ordered, and the calamari...Hands down the best I've ever had! Looking forward to visiting again in the future.

    Food was good. I'm from the Northwest so I'm used to fresh seafood. But it was good and expected. The service was great the young lady was helpful and attentive. The ambiance reminded me of 90's grunge. But I love the 90's so it was cool.

    The best crawfish I've ever had!!!! Went for a late dinner the other night and we definitely made the right choice. This place was fun, fast, and delicious. I went with the live crawfish, and queen crab. Absolutely delicious.

    The food was good, had no issues and the server was very nice! however can't say the same for the hosts. first impressions are important when I walk into a restaurant which is the only reason I'll give 3 stars. I wasn't greeted or smiled at. Just told "follow me" with attitude.

    The settings relaxed which is nice, though it's a bit loud when they start ringing the bell and sounding the alarms in there - that is something I could have done without. The service was good. The food was overall decent with the exception of the chicken strips, they weren't even real chicken. It was the nasty ground up stuff. I broke one open and immediately sent them back. Everything else was good though, so we left full. All in all, not a bad place to grab some cheap seafood.

    We absolutely love Angry Crab, there are a lot of seafood boil places out there, but none that beat the flavors of Angry Crab! We actually loved the old location in the Ahwatukee Foothills better but this location is second best. I wish they had a bigger bar with more selections like the old one, so we just sit at the tables here. The staff is always super friendly and helpful. We always split a bag of head off shrimp with veggies and sausage! Plus we ALWAYS order extra sauces for dipping! I really like the flavor of the two and three but my husband really enjoys spice but he prefers the flavor of four more than the five. Both are super spicy but the five seems to make him feel sick after eating it... FYI if You're debating between the two! It's the perfect amount of food and if you're extra hungry grab some French fries on happy hour for a starter cause they are excellent! The spice here is so addictive you'll be craving it the very next day however take some enzymes before going and prepare for some stanky burps! Not a good first date place for sure;)

    STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND READ THIS--Portillo's at 7200 W Ray Rd in Chandler Has Just Redefined…read more"Heaven on a Plate" with the BIG BEEF DIPPED and That CHEESE SAUCE... OMG! I've had Italian Beef before. I've loved Italian Beef before. But nothing--NOTHING--prepared me for the transcendent, jaw-dropping, flavor-explosion experience that is ordering the Big Beef DIPPED at this Chandler location. If you haven't done it yet, you haven't lived. And if you've had it elsewhere but haven't had it here with their cheese sauce... well, buckle up, because you're about to discover your new favorite thing on the entire planet. From the second you walk into Portillo's on Ray Road, you can smell the magic--crisp sport peppers, rich au jus, and that unmistakable aroma of slow-roasted beef that makes your stomach growl instantly. But the real moment of truth comes when you look that server in the eye and say: "I'll take the Big Beef, DIPPED, LOADED with cheese sauce. And I mean loaded." Watch their face light up--they know. They understand. This is not just a sandwich; it's a ritual, and this location performs it with reverence. Then it arrives. Oh. My. Goodness. The bread is drenched--and I mean perfectly, gloriously drenched--in that deep, savory au jus, so every inch is saturated with rich, beefy flavor. It's not soggy; it's luscious. It's a sponge for joy. And then... the cheese sauce. Sweet, spicy, velvety, liquid gold--it's like someone took pepper jack, dreams, and a touch of heaven and whipped it into a creamy, molten ribbon that cascades over every millimeter of that dipped bread and tender, shreddy beef. The first bite is not just a meal--it's a religious experience. The crunch of the giardiniera, the pop of a sport pepper, the warm, juicy beef, the cheese sauce pulling in golden strands... it's an OMG moment so intense you might actually forget your own name for a second. You'll hear yourself making sounds you didn't know you could make. You might cry a little (happy tears). You might order a second one before you've even finished the first. And here's the thing--the Chandler location executes this with flawless, almost artistic precision. The line moves fast, the staff is smiling, and they don't skimp. They don't hold back on the beef, they don't drizzle the cheese sauce like it's an afterthought--they PILE IT ON with pride. You can tell this team lives for these moments. They're not just serving food; they're delivering pure, unadulterated happiness. Even the atmosphere feels electric--like everyone in the room knows they're about to have their day made. You'll see strangers nodding at each other in mutual respect over their sandwiches. You'll hear "OMG!" echoed across the dining room (seriously). And when you finish that Big Beef Dipped--cheese sauce glistening on every corner, not a drop of au jus left--you'll sit back with a food coma smile so wide it hurts, already plotting your next visit. Bottom line: If you are within 50 miles of 7200 W Ray Rd, you have no excuse. Go. Right now. Order the Big Beef DIPPED with EXTRA cheese sauce. Thank me later. And maybe bring a napkin--because that cheese sauce is so good, you're going to want to lick every last drop off your fingers. Five stars? Try FIVE OUT OF FIVE STARS PLUS A STANDING OVATION! This is the best sandwich I've ever had in my life, and I'm pretty sure it's illegal to be this good.

Grilled chicken is an add-on, which I paid for, so that was frustrating. I got back in line to fix it. The remake came with no chicken and no blue cheese, but I'd already put dressing on the first one and could see where someone had picked the blue cheese out. Still no chicken either time. Today I tried the drive-thru. No one was taking orders at the speaker. After about five minutes I pulled up to the window and waited another five. Nobody came out or acknowledged me, so I left. I get why other Portillo's locations have lines around the block and this one doesn't. It feels mismanaged and like the staff just doesn't care. Shorter, review-site friendly version Two bad visits in a row at this Portillo's. 1. Ordered a chopped salad with grilled chicken, no blue cheese. Got blue cheese, no chicken. The remake had no blue cheese but still no chicken, and you could tell the cheese had been picked out of the original. 2. Drive-thru today: no one at the speaker for 5 minutes. Pulled to the window, waited another 5 minutes. No response, so I left. Other Portillo's are packed for a reason. This location seems mismanaged and understaffed.

In fact, I'm pleasantly surprised by their growing menu and their willingness to better themselves by listening to Yelp feedback.

In the best way possible, service hasn't changed - it's still the same friendly owner greeting you with a smile and overall cheerful attitude. You can tell that they are actively growing as a restaurant and I can't help but want to cheer them on! Today, I had their banh mi pho with a side of Chinese donuts to dip into the pho broth.

As for the food, we had the Fish & Chips with a Mahi Mahi Slaw & Fries, the Ahi Poke Tacos which come in Wonton shells. Hot Honey and Sausage Pizza was great. The Barbacoa Nachos had all the right ingredients & the Double Smash Burger had only some "fancy sauce" on the plate. The Tempura Green Bean, can't remember who ordered, but were good with the chipotle ranch sauce. With me, I'm all about the cocktails, so I treated myself to both the Froze Margarita & the Chi Chi.
