“The best BBQ wings I ever had were absolutely legendary! They were perfectly smoked with a balance of sweet and tangy sauce that just clung to the wings in the most satisfying way. Each bite was a mix of crispy skin and tender, juicy meat that practically fell off the bone. The smokiness was just right, not too overpowering but enough to give you that authentic BBQ taste. And the sauce, oh man, it had a little kick to it that crept up on you, but it was the kind of heat that made you want to keep eating more. They were served piping hot, and I swear, the flavors were dancing in my mouth with every single bite! Absolutely unforgettable! Will 100% come again“

“My first crabs since moving here 2 months ago! I got a dozen of larges (great sizes!), they were a little light (early in the seaon) but great seasoning, very fresh and everything pulled out nicely!! Will definitely be back. Only place that is open on Fridays!“

“Just ordered their house special pho from uber eats along with their fresh (non-fried) summer rolls. Their pho is one of the best bowls of pho I've had in a long time. They were generous with their portions and the flavor of the soup tells me they use actual bone instead of using just a bullion cube for the soup base. Their spring rolls were incredibly fresh and their sauce was on point. I would have taken a photo, but I ate it all too fast.“

“The service was excellent from the moment we walked in the door. Food and drinks was very good! We shared the coconut shrimp and I had the jerk shrimp pineapple bowl that I requested extra spicy and it was so good! My daughter enjoyed her jerk chicken pineapple bowl. And we shared the Pineapple empanada which was delicious. Generous portions so we can enjoy the rest for lunch! Fun atmosphere with island music.“

“This was my first time ever eating here, the food was amazing. Service was amazing as well I think the cashier name was Shawna she gave me a quick rundown on the menu and helped me decide on what to get. I ordered the shrimp basket and sweet potato fries and a side of collard greens and banana pudding. Omg the greens was so bomb and my friend got the whiting fish sandwich. The fish was so so so good I kept tryna eat his food. I will definitely return back.“

“Neat and quaint spot at the end of the large plaza.The food was okay, the wontons were mainly wrapper, hardly any meat. Store bought, frozen dumplings, which I had asked for pan fried, but came deep fried, still I ate them, as the sauce they came with was tasty. I was impressed with the portion of Lo Mein & Fried Rice, as these are both Kids Menu portions. However this was the left over oil from the Lo Mein. The Spicy Garlic Pork wasn't spicy, it was more sweet, with a hint of vinegar.The staff was very nice, many of them working together, family environment, although the music could use a bit less profanity...Interesting choice of toilet paper ?Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu, and I did order from it.“

“Thank you, Makayia for a most enjoyable dining experience recently. You were outstanding!! So kind, attentive, a friendly smile and helpful with the menu and servicing our group of 5 w/2 children ages 3 and 5! Your service was perfect and Carrabba is fortunate to have you!! Hope to see you next time - we'll certainly ask for you!!“

“Valentine's Day dinner at Shaking Crab in Manassas was a unique mix of a warm family environment and delicious seafood, different from the typical romantic setting. In spite of the busy atmosphere, the friendly crowd and the warm reception we got when we arrived created a welcoming ambiance for the night.The exceptional service stood out, as our server was patient and helpful, expertly navigating us through the menu without any sense of rush—a rare find in the busy Valentine's Day dining atmosphere. The restaurant displays a special charm with walls and surfaces covered in signatures and messages from past customers, showcasing the memories made here. Even though marker contributions are no longer possible, the tradition continues to thrive.Although there isn't an unlimited dining option, the prices of the dishes seemed fair considering the quality and portion sizes. We opted for the seafood platter, which was a delightful assortment of oceanic treats: one pound of snow crab legs, headless shrimp, crawfish, and mussels, accompanied by half a pound of sausages, four corn cobs, and four potatoes, all for $70.99. We included boiled eggs in our meal to fully immerse ourselves in the Shaking Crab experience.Each bite was a delightful surprise—the dishes were served piping hot, seasoned to perfection, and to my pleasant surprise, the mussels were free of any sand, a detail that seafood lovers will surely enjoy. It's evident that Shaking Crab offers more than just food; they provide a culinary experience that is difficult to criticize.The only hiccup in an otherwise flawless evening? The open jukebox policy that allowed for a mix of hip-hop tracks clashed with the mood I had hoped for. I felt a jazz or blues backdrop would have complemented the ambiance and culinary delights more fittingly.Valentine's Day at Shaking Crab was truly unforgettable: exceptional service, a welcoming ambiance, and seafood that was simply perfect. Although the music wasn't to my taste, it was a minor issue in an otherwise fantastic dining experience. Shaking Crab is a standout destination in Manassas for anyone craving a seafood feast, whether it's a special celebration or a laid-back meal with family and friends.“

“Stopped by for a date with my husband. As soon as we walked in we were attentively welcomed and seated. The service was excellent and so was the food. I loved the variety on the menu and really liked that they are very allergy friendly! Our kids have food allergies so I will be coming back with them next time. Overall we had a great time!“

“Can be crowded and slow service, but worth the wait. The food is super delicious. The she crab soup is a winner (literally), believe it or not, the chicken tenders are juicy (great kids option), and for lunch I love to get the poke. If being in a bar type of place isn't for you, sit outside when the weather is nice.“

“This is a favorite spot when we want to dine outside. The upstairs seating area is great. Between all of the dishes we've had I think the only one we weren't happy with was the fish sandwich. We haven't had the crab cake sandwich at a waiter's recommendation, which we appreciate staff that steer you toward a good meal. The cocktails it depends on what you like - ask the staff, they're honest and helpful. The downstairs bar always seems lively- different vibe but everyone always looks like they're having a blast.“

“Wow! Stopping here on our way north was an excellent choice. I've never been here before.America's Best Wings has over thirty different flavors to put on your wings. We did teriyaki.My friend and I ordered Philly Cheesesteaks, which were about $10 apiece. They were cooked well and the food was bursting with mouth-watering flavors. I enjoyed it.I talked with the cashier while waiting for the food, and he was pleasant! Good atmosphere.“

“The crabs are the best! Been coming here for years always giant size and fresh. Captain Bob sets up right here in Woodbridge and has the best fast service. It is take away only but I would rather take them home anyway. Definitely go get a bushel for your next outdoor “

“Its been five years since my last review, thought I would provide an update. Even though I don't get by as often as back then, the food remains delicious, the prices are comparable to other carry-out diners, and the owner/staff are great people!“

“My mom's review.Over the top delicious! Three slim, long fillets, a fresh cucumber, tomato and lettuce salad. The presentation was perfect. The fish was fresh and the delivery was timely! Thank you my precious daughter for always thinking of me. I have been in a cooked food valley of drought. And I had some tartar sauce and the French fries were fresh and crisp. I am about to finish up it all!“
