“Stopped by today to order a chicken Caesar wrap. Megan (not sure if I spelled it right) was very funny and personable. She told me she would “make my wrap with love” and it tasted awesome. Will probably visit the other location when I want some mac and cheese but this location was good as well. Nice filling lunch before I went back to work.“

“I recently visited Crab Shack Seafood Boil in Ridgewood, NY, and it was an outstanding experience! The spacious and clean environment immediately caught my attention and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. The friendly hostesses and waitresses added to the welcoming atmosphere with their warm smiles and attentive service.

The highlight of my visit was definitely the Dungeness crab boil. It was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and absolutely delicious! I highly recommend it to any seafood lover. I will definitely be coming back for more!

Thank you, Crab Shack Seafood Boil, for a fantastic dining experience!“

“Everything was so delicious the first time I ate there. I recommend going there all the time“

“The food and the presentations are wonderful. The atmosphere is beautiful not only with the waiters, but the patrons as well, took someone there today and they are coming back. And they are bringing back a family member“

“I want to start off by saying the Art work and Decor is amazing and well thought out. I can see why people came by our table to take pictures (even though we were full on chowing down) but Nonetheless the server we had was so sweet and accommodating the environment was very welcoming...I will definitely be returning. I had the whiting grits and a salad with Salmon croquettes. And my best friend had Catfish Mac and cheese with collard greens. The food was on point, well seasoned and hot off the stove. I love a hot meal and it made me feel right at home. Another honorable mention the music was spectacular, perfect for the mood we were in. I loved it! 10/10 ❤️❤️❤️“

“a really great place. love the food. the picture service is nice, but i wish they warned you what was going to happen. it seemed like it was just a promotion for the restaurant, so we let them take the pictures. later we felt guilted into buying a $20 picture, which has never happened to me at a restaurant before. i was also bothered because if we were going to buy the picture, i would want it to be with the food. i even asked the photographer this but she didn't take my suggestion. if i had known we would later be pushed to buy pictures, i would have at least insisted on the timing to get a picture i wanted.“

“This is one serious gem of a place, they literally cook and provide real proper nutritional food with decent prices, this isn’t one of those chain restaurants that chase profit share margins instead of healthy food, the lady who took my order was super sweet helpful and wholesome as well. Food tastes fresh and delicious, i am not sure how they are not more busy.

Get in there people we wont have great food like this if we don’t protect and support!“

“Worst food i ever eat , low quality meat ! Nothing good there, worst experience ever!“

“love this best kept secret“

“I get tacos weekly! I’m obsessed!! Best Mexican rice I have ever had. The salsa/hot sauce is amazing! Taco shells never fall apart even after being reheated. Meat is always juicy and tender!“

“omg the chicken and ribs 😍 4 get about it 😍😂😂“

“we ordered 2 orders of fried catfish, 1 with sweet potatoe fries and 1 with Mac&cheese, and also a side of collards. everything was made FRESH. crispy and delicious fish & fries, super cheesey Mac and the collards we're great! not the first or the last time I will order from here. reasonably priced for fish around here.“

“Typical local Mexican restaurant & bar operated by a dominican staff. The bar service was great. The food was average at best. I ordered the steak tostadas, wings, and fries. The wings were fried too hard. The tostadas needed seasoning. Overall, I had a great time watching the Canelo fight.“

“The establishment was very nice. Although I don't drink anymore the bar staff was very polite and friendly. We had an event for the elections coming up and the owner was kind enough to allow us to have the event there. Nice place if you're looking for a drink and some quick food.“

“I've been coming here for over 20 years. This place is awesome. The portion sizes are big and the prices are great. The flavor and love that is put into this food is so worth it!
