The restaurant is located about 2 miles West of Disneyland. There’s plenty of outside self parking. The lunch menu was reasonably priced. There was a large selection of seafood on the daily menu. There’s a separate section of the menu for a special drinks. The restaurant offers a lot selection of desserts. The server was outstanding. The restaurants are clean. The dishes served were very good.

This spot was ok it wasn't too busy, the staff were friendly, and the food was pretty good, had a good flavor. The cook on me and my fam steak could have been cooked more consistent my steak wasn't cooked evenly, and my fam's steak was was over cooked

Joe's Crab Shack has some of the beer seafood boils you will find, and at an affordable price. The staff is friendly, restaurant is clean and the food is excellent.

We came here for a New Year's Day lunch--and to repeat, from a previous visit, a delicious meal of East Coast Platter and Crab Stuffed Salmon. The reception was friendly and welcoming; however, the waitperson seemed distracted or distant, as if he really didn't want to be working on this day (I get it). The music seemed too loud--difficult to be in conversation just across the the table. Our orders arrived and placed in front of us without any fanfare--just seeming disinterest; ditto with the giving of our bill. Nonetheless, we appreciated the service and provided a meaningful tip. I would suggest turning the volume of the music down and have staff who want to serve and interact with customers.

Great dining experience close to Disneyland! The food was delicious, the service was excellent, and it was very kid-friendly, which made the whole experience stress-free for our family. We also loved that they take souvenir photos you can purchase—such a fun touch and a great memory from the trip. Highly recommend for families visiting the area!

This is a glorified tourist trap. The food was mediocre and definitely not worth the price. The shouting as each server yelled, Shark attack and the tables were asked to scream back was unnecessary. It was not busy, we had to ask for very little thing, can I have a small fork for crab (2x), can I have a nut cracker, no bibs, butter? Well, I got oil flavored butter and crab and potatoes were lukewarm warm. Appetizers came out very fast. The mushroom filled crab were filled with bits of chopped shrimp not crab. Tasteless. The food came out before we could finish the calamarie rings so pick which one was going to be cold. The wait services were more interested in standing near the bar and having gab fests then taking care of customers. If you like a seafood version of chuckle cheese this place is for you. Oh, we added clams but they neglected to mention it would be manilla clams that require a microscope to see them. Very disappointed in Landry's for this branch and it needs a good cleaning. The dirt on the window ledge was an inch thick. Calling all DM's checkout this location, clean it up , train the wai staff, even the menu was sticky. No alcoholic drinks and a kids meal-$235 plus a tip. Shame on you guys! Heed this review and go to Red lobster it is at least 50 bucks less and has the same menu, better food, cleaner, and way better service. No yelling! If I could have given no stars I would have done so. Just say-“No” to Joe. It's a tourist trap.
