Review by Leone Metz

If you’re craving seafood, Shaking Crab is the place to be! 🦀 I had the blue crab with a half pound of clams and crawfish, all drenched in their spicy hot Cajun sauce. The flavors were truly incredible, and at just $27 for all that, it felt like a steal!

The atmosphere is casual and friendly, perfect for a weekday lunch or dinner. Just a heads-up: the entrance can be a bit confusing as it’s next to Wings. Overall, a fun experience! I’ll definitely be back for more. 😋
