Came here today on a Sunday around 2pm after lunch and parking is pretty bad behind the restaurant so I ended up parking at the lot where Ralph's and Carl's Jr is located.When walking inside Crab Shack, their main door is broken and had to use the one on the side. They were pretty empty with two tables being occupied. We were greeted by the waitor and told us to sit anywhere. He quickly gave us water and served us right away.We ordered the three pound combo of just shrimp which is slightly more than market price but it includes corn, sausage and potatoes which is worth. We ordered a side of rice which is a large cup of rice as well as two beers. When checking in on yelp I noticed there's a offer for free Cajun fries with a purchase of $25 or more. I asked our waitor about it and he said he will ask the manager. Our waitor came back telling us they ran out of all IPA beers which is unfortunate.Within a few minutes of waiting our bag of three pound shrimp arrived and our server cut the bag for easier access. It was definitely on point with the house seasoning and medium spicy. It actually had some heat. Out of the three pounds there were a couple shrimps that were slightly overcooked and difficult to peel but overall majority of our shrimps in our bag was cooked perfectly. Soon after our waitor gave us Cajun fries which some were soggy and some crispy with some fries being super salty and some not having seasoning at all. These were not that great but I'm not upset since they're part of the yelp check in offer.Both me and my fiance were able to finish two pounds with having to take home the last pound of shrimp. This was definitely more than enough food for two people. Service here is great with our waitor checking up on us frequently. After packing up our food, we now get the bill and noticed they charged us for the Cajun fries which is part of their yelp check in offer. I asked the worker who gave us the bill about it and said he will talk to the manager. After talking to the manager, the worker told us that they they're not going to fullfil the yelp check in offer. I became upset and said they should've told us ahead of time instead of automatically putting in the order for it. They apologized and said there's nothing they can do. I ended up paying the additional $5.99 for it since I ate some of the Cajun fries that wasn't that great.Hopefully other customers will read this and will avoid claiming the yelp check in offer or else they will be tricked into paying an additional $5.99 for their meal.

The prices for 1 is better that's one reason I drive there. The food is always delish. I always get 2lbs of crab legs and 1 lv of shrimp. Corn on the cob and the sausage is the bomb. The people are always very nice. I'm glad I found this place and I highly recommend.

A bit noisy. They have concrete floors & metal chairs, so you get the idea.

This is one of my favorite crab places and it makes it even better that it's right around the corner from my house. I have been a customer through COVID till now and they have always been so nice with great service. Even when just popping in for a quick lunch it's always been clean inside with great food and service. The Carson location is smaller so it can have a longer wait on the weekends but it's set up so you can still have your space while you eat.

I was craving for seafood so my bf took me here. We ordered a combo with shrimps, mussels, crawfish, potatoes, corns & rice which cost us almost $60. The seasoning was a little bit salty to me. Recommended for you guys to eat the sauce with white rice. It’s nice. About the seafood, to be honest, the seafood here is not the best, it’s fine anw. It was not fresh fresh. I like the mussels. They tasted juicy & freshly sweet when they were hot. I don’t like the shrimps. They were not freshly sweet & juicy as I expected.About the environment, it was not too crowded.
