The clam chowda’ and lobsta’ roll were excellent, customer service can use a little improvement. Downstairs was closed so we ate upstairs. I’ll definitely give Shaking Crab another shot.!!

I got the lobster fries, they were tasty. Didn't trust anything else on the menu. The place wasn't clean and you could see the trash when you came up the stairs. I will not return. Bar Rescue!!!!

Pretty good portions, but the flavors were just okay to me. I liked the calamari better than the shrimp boil.
