Spacious and clean! On my most recent visit, we were immediately seated, and shortly after, a server came by to take our order. They provide gloves, an apron, hand wipes, and plastic utensils. I ordered the half-pound mild garlic butter seafood boil with shrimp (without the head), which came with potatoes and corn, and I added sausages. The seafood boil is always tasty. Yummy! I had a cosmo (wasn't strong, but a cute drink to sip while I devoured my seafood boil). Definitely a good spot for seafood boil lovers!

Parking: tight. They have a little parking lot but that was filled. You can park on the street. They have a walk up window. I gave my number and was told my order would be up. It took more than 30 minutes. I ordered $5 crabs and had them sautéed. There's an extra charge. They came with a sauce. I ordered Buffalo butter. You can order whole crabs. The crabs were ok. They were meaty but I was looking for this great flavor and it wasn't there. I ordered a side of cajun seafood. Omg!! Omg!!!! There was too much cajun seasoning. I could not eat it. Overall I wasn't totally happy with the crabs. I'm not sure what all of the hype was about. I may go back to get whole crabs and make a sauce of my own.

Seafood came with corn and potatoes as well, I think 2-3/each were in our bag. Shake sauce level hot is perfect, lil spice without discomfort. I like that you can choose spice level. Seafood was well coated and all the food was perfectly cooked. Fried foods so crispy and well seasoned. Food came out decently fast as well, albeit it wasn't busy when I went. Plenty of seating and chill atmosphere, great music. Provided bib and gloves. Staff helpful and attentive without being intrusive. Will come back 1000x. Only critique is that the booth seat I was sat in moved really easily, not sure if it's all the seats or just the one. There was a family seated behind me and whenever they moved, the whole seat would move. Hope they can secure it down somehow!

Firstly, I was confused when I drove onto the block and saw another named business at the address. I found on street parking on the side street & called the number advertised across the business. I was advised they were the same business but had a name revision. The entry was toward the rear of the building. There are 2 steps to navigate for those that may have any mobility challenges. The first thing you see is a spacious open area that has several booths along the wall & an opening to the main dining area that houses the beverage area and numerous tables & booths looking out onto the street. There are mounted televisions surrounding the room & music playing in the background. The Servers are professional, pleasantly inviting and friendly. The food smells & tastes heavenly & the combination platters are savory, seasoned to perfection & very plentiful. My combination platters had shrimp, whiting and fries & were so heavy I couldn't believe it. The value was amazing for the amount of food you received. The seafood offerings were great by the pound. This is a place you will want to return for many more days to enjoy over & over.

In the summertime I practically live on blue crabs and have sourced many places in North Philly to get them. I returned to the Crab Shack yesterday after seeing a revamped operation on social media and their website. We got two dozen and they were cooked perfectly. They also offer an extensive menu of steamed platters with the ubiquitous veggie trio. You can order on line or outside at the store. You can call but I had no luck with that. The young man who worked with me was nice and pleasant. I was allowed inside to look in the cases that had crabs of all sizes already cooked that morning as well as others cooked seafood items. The staff behind the counter are loud and aloof but they care about what they are doing. Give em a try.
