Sugar's Crab Shack is a local favorite known for its delicious and fresh dishes. The restaurant offers a variety of options such as fried whiting, shrimp, and catfish, all made to order. The fried fish is particularly praised, especially when paired with the homemade tartar sauce. Sides like green beans, mac and cheese, fries, and onion rings complement the meals. The restaurant is a black-owned business that "gets it right," as noted by many diners. The atmosphere is welcoming, with outdoor seating available to enjoy views of the downtown area. Desserts like the sweet potato pie, coconut cream pie, and the popular bread pudding with lemon glaze icing are highlights. The 2pc catfish special and snack & fries are other recommended options, along with the 12 wing dinner, fried shrimp, and soft shell crab.
The reviews praise the fresh, well-seasoned fish, the crisp fries, and the welcoming atmosphere. Customers have enjoyed the whiting salad, fried shrimp, and deviled crab cake, and the bean pie for dessert. The service is described as friendly, with the owner even stopping by tables to check on the meals. Overall, Sugar's Crab Shack is a beloved local spot that offers delicious seafood and a warm, cultural experience.
