Gus's Crab Shack offers a warm and inviting atmosphere, reminiscent of a backyard BBQ, with outdoor seating and live music. The restaurant is known for its crab legs, which are cooked to perfection with a sweet and buttery flavor. The food portions are big, and the menu, though not large, focuses on doing things right. The crab and blue crab are done just right, and the corn on the cob is amazing. Customers enjoy cold beer, delicious food, and great bands, though the music can sometimes be too loud, making it hard to hear and causing ears to ring afterward. The staff is very friendly, but during busy times, they could come around more often. Prices are fair, and fries make a nice accompaniment. The restaurant is family owned and operated, with the owners being part of the community. It’s a popular spot for live music in New Castle County, Delaware, and reservations are recommended most nights. Overall, Gus's Crab Shack is a fun place with excellent food, big portions, and a lively atmosphere.
