The Crab Shack is a beloved restaurant known for its amazing food and service. It offers a variety of seafood dishes and is a must-visit spot for steamed crab and shrimp, as well as its renowned crab cakes. The restaurant's she-crab soup and coleslaw are also highly praised, though opinions on the she-crab soup can vary. With its low-key atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff, The Crab Shack remains a top choice for seafood lovers in Charleston. Many customers appreciate the reasonable prices and the generous portions, often needing to ask for to-go boxes. The restaurant is also noted for its Crab stuffed Flounder, which is considered the best in the area, and delightful specialty drinks. The covered and screened-in outside seating offers a peaceful dining experience, even on rainy days. Overall, The Crab Shack is a true hidden gem that continues to impress with excellent food and attentive service.
