“ Haven't had cajun food in a long time and tried this place tonight. You could either create your own or get a premade combo. However we don't really eat corn or potatoes. We got 2 lbs of shrimp with sausage, a side of sweet potatoe fries, and garlic bread. The sauce we got was atomic (all sauces mixed) and medium spice. The medium spice REALLY hits the back of your throat so beware! lol. We asked for extra lime and they gave HELLA! The shrimps were really good and so was the sauce. Bag came out piping hot. Would love to try their garlic noodles next time though. The restaurant is a good size, and plenty of seating on a Thursday night. The servers come around and ask if we need water and are attentive. However the lighting here is so dark. ”
“ Lowkey pricey but i still go here because it's so delicious and easy to share with family. Usually sharing a c3 bag with 2-4 people works out for me if everyone orders a rice too. It gets super messy but the garlic butter sauce is so worth it. One thing though, I feel like when you add an extra seafood like adding clams to the bag, you get less of everything else even though you paid extra. I still haven't tried a lot of the sides. One other thing to mention is that they don't allow substitutions for any of the combos which sucks because I would definitely get the biggest bag but without the crawfish. ”
“ I've always been hesitant to try this place and I'm mad at myself for waiting this long! We ordered C3 and got the Alaskan crab legs with the atomic sauce. The sauce was well seasoned. The shrimp was slightly overcooked but not a big deal. We also got the fish with mango salad. It was good but not super amazing. The staff here is kind and constantly checked on us. I will be back for sure. ”
“ Food overall was pretty good. We got the Cajun butter seasoning and it was tasty. I definitely needed to add salt to my food for a deeper flavor. We also got the chicken wings which I thought was super delicious and had a nice crisp to it. The service was great! Our waitstaff were super kind and attentive. If you're looking for a local seafood restaurant to try, this wouldn't be a bad place to come to eat. ”
“ Shaking Crab is one of my favorite restaurants ever! The shrimp is good quality and they actually put enough sauce in the bag for you to enjoy it with every piece you eat. (I've been to some places that don't put enough sauce.) The fried calamari is amazing too because it's crispy and the fries are thin with the perfect amount of seasoning too. Our server was sweet and checked on us the perfect amount of times. Anytime I'm near the city and craving some spicy shrimp, I'll continue going back! ”
