The Crab Shack, Gardena, Gateway Plaza

Over $100 when we would have normally spent maybe $70 not a big deal since everyone's trying to recoup from being closed during the shutdown. If you're going to inflate the prices to make up for business at least have decent food. The crab legs were ridiculously over salted I at 3 legs I tried one from the second batch and they were just as bad. This is the 3rd time in a row that salt content is ridiculous. The 1st and 2nd time we thought maybe it was an off day or a different cook, but this obviously is an ongoing issue they have. The shrimp were mushy beyond belief the crab legs looked strange. I would not give a bad review but I tried calling to let them know and the phone just rings or goes to voicemail. I stopped eating my food and ate my son's cheeseburger from McDonald's that lets you know how bad it was I'm sick to my stomach.

Good food good service !!!

I ordered 2 foods and I was almost begging for some ranch for my food. They showed me too much attitude before giving me some souse. The calamari and shrimp fries was awful. If you are hungry and there is no other place open, go here, but if you want to enjoy your meal, don’t even think going here.

From the moment we arrived they took our bill but they gave us the entire order. My daughter had to go ask for what was missing. After that, no one approached us to offer anything else. Every time we needed something, my daughters had to get up to ask for us. I ordered a beer and it never arrived, but when I paid, they charged me for it. I feel that their service was terrible. I will not return to this place.

We fell in love with Louisiana-style seafood at Crab Hut in San Diego. Ever since we moved to Redondo Beach, we've been on the hunt for a good place. We thought we found it at Crab Shack, and tried it in both Carson and Gardena. Unfortunately, the shrimps and mussels were mushy in Carson, and all the clams went bad in Gardena, as you can see in the picture. We had to throw away 2 lbs of clams - what a waste of money. We won't be returning to any Crab Shack location.

They don't answer the phone!

I order two lbs of crawfish to go with sauce in the side and I was not please with the food, crawfish over cooked so when you try to crack it open it just mash out like potatoes. The potatoes were good. They gave very little sauce it wasn’t even enough for one bag of crawfish and I order two whole bags of food,

The worst! I have a family gathering bought food to carry out when I get home I’m missing fries and rice I live 45 mini away! Not going back.

We had the fried fish, fried shrimp and oysters. They were pretty. Seasoned well for fish and shrimp. Feels like a fast food place but food is better.There’s plenty of parking.
