I rarely write reviews, but after spending over $250 celebrating my friend's daughter's 16th…read morebirthday at Shaking Crab, I felt compelled to share our experience. From the moment we arrived, the hostess, Milk, was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and professional. She made us feel valued from the start, and throughout the evening she continued to provide excellent service to every table she assisted. She truly deserves recognition and a promotion. Unfortunately, our assigned server provided one of the worst dining experiences I've had. After taking our food and drink order, she returned only with our drinks and then disappeared for 15-20 minutes without checking on us. My friend's daughter's entrée arrived before our appetizers, and our appetizer--fried hard chicken wings--didn't arrive until about 20 minutes later. When we asked about the delay, the server said it was because we requested the wings to be fried hard. She then made a comment about "Black people in the kitchen cooking." Whether she intended it as a joke or not, the comment was unprofessional and made us uncomfortable. Because of the poor service and attitude, we asked if another server could assist us. While Milk continued to be wonderful, another employee with purple-blue hair was also very rude when we asked for assistance. Her attitude was dismissive and unpleasant. Later in the evening, around 11 p.m., I asked a staff member near the kitchen if they had lids for our seafood buckets. She responded "No" with an attitude. I then asked if they had to-go cups, and she said they did but claimed she was off duty. Less than 30 seconds later, she went behind the bar and began making and serving drinks, which made her response even more confusing. Shortly afterward, she began arguing with my friend at our table for no apparent reason. At that point, we asked Milk to get the manager. The manager came over, sat down with us, listened to our concerns, and apologized. He explained that he was actually off that day but had come in to help support the restaurant. We appreciated that he took the time to hear us out and said he would address the issues with his staff. The food itself was good, but good food cannot make up for poor customer service and disrespectful attitudes. We wanted this to be a memorable celebration for my friend's daughter, not an evening spent dealing with rude employees. Customer service is just as important as the food. Sadly, because of the experience we had, we will not be returning. I hope management invests in better customer service training because employees like Milk show what great hospitality should look like, while others left a very negative impression.

Nice modern decore. The service was top notch. I ordered the "snow crab legs, shrimp, crawfish boil with garlicbutteras the sauce" it also came with corn and potatoes.

My daughter ordered 1 lb of crawfish (with the cajun sauce) with potato and corn. It was quickly demolished so I'd say it was a winner! She also got a side of sweet potato fries that went with her back to school :D I enjoyed snow crab legs (with the garlic butter) which also came with a potato and corn and it also was very good. My husband ordered the catfish and enjoyed it. His only feedback was that he wished it came with clarified butter, we had some home but I agree, it should have been included with his hush puppies. Overall it was pretty good. When she wants crawfish again, we will likely come back but I do feel that there are better local places around that I could get more for our money at.

Very clean. Good service. We ordered their delish hush puppies to start us off. They're still delish. They were greasier than last year's so we wrapped them in a napkin to remove some of it. Still delish! My husband had his usual, the crab boil-crab legs, steamed shrimp, red roasted potatoes and an ear of corn (halved). He went to work as soon as it hit the table! There was enough food for 2 people to share. I decided to try a crab cake. I ordered the crab cake dinner with green beans and red potatoes. A large helping of well seasoned green beans and roasted potatoes and 1 crab cake. (You can also order the dinner with 2 crab cakes). My sides were very good. The crab cake was decent. It wasn't as moist or seasoned as i hoped it'd be. I won't order it again. Last year, I tried the salmon which was delish. When you're in the area, you must go to Wicker's!

I sat for 15 minutes in Tee's section without anyone coming to the table. I even asked the hostess twice and she said someone was coming soon. They weren't busy or anything. The music was way too loud, and they were playing some really old music. As I was walking to go ask the hostess the 2nd time, Dakota asked me if he could help. I moved to his section and ne of the best waiters I've ever had. The food was just ok. The sangria, doesn't come with any fruit, but Dakota added some cherries and oranges for me.

I've never heard of them before, but shrimp po'boys are one of my weakness. When I got there, there wasn't any line probably because it was 30 minutes before they close. Their menu is simple and the meals are quite affordable compared to the other food trucks that serve po'boys. Of course, I ordered the shrimp po'boy with extra sauce on the side. The fries is already included on the meal so that was a plus. I waited for about 5 minutes as they cook my food. It was kind of awkward though standing next to the truck because the staff closed their window. I had some questions regarding the meal, but I had to wait until she opened the window again. As for the food, I was surprised to see that they use some kind of sour dough bread or french bread (sorry I do not know the difference). Usually whenever I order po'boys there, it is served in a hotdog buns. Therefore I really liked that it is served with a different kind of bread other than hotdog bun. The po'boy has a very good amount of huge shrimps. There's nothing special about their fries though. Overall, if they are in the area and I am having po'boy cravings, I will definitely be back.

We began with a garden salad, a straightforward but well-executed mix of fresh greens, tomato, cucumber, red onion, and croutons, finished with a balsamic vinaigrette. Crisp, balanced, and properly dressed, it set a solid foundation for the meal. For the main course, we opted for chicken wings and a side of onion rings. The wings arrived piping hot, juicy, and well-prepared. While we ordered them on the spicier side, the heat level was more restrained than expected--flavorful, but lacking the assertive kick that true heat seekers might be looking for. The onion rings, by contrast, delivered exactly as hoped: crisp, golden, and satisfying, with a clean bite and no excess grease. Overall, the experience was an enjoyable one--uncomplicated, well-executed, and comfortable. It's a place we'll gladly return to, especially for a relaxed meal at the bar.
