This place was highly reviewed, so we decided to stop and give it a try. More outdoorsy and "rustic" than I usually go for. Outdoor eating with lots of insects, did nto care for the food.

My husband had the Low Country Boil and really liked it. He also had the steamed oysters. He loved the way they have a hole in the table to throw all the shells in as you eat. I couldn't really have anything, as they boil all the seafood together and I am allergic to crawfish. I did have a cup of soup and some key lime pie.
The place is ...

Look people... if you wanna see gators go to the savannah wildlife refuge. You'll see gators of all sizes and it's very pretty there. I've eaten at the crab shack twice and the only reason we ate there the second time was because we were invited by people we couldn't turn down. It's horrible food that's over priced in an extremely filthy atmosphere. Low country boil? It's just MUSH people! MUSH!

Absolutely terrible. I read the reviews online, even asked some local lady in a park "what is the best seafood resturaunt on the island". She told me to go to the crab shak, or as my wife now calls it "Crab Crap". Everything was way overcooked, even down to my two year old daughters chicken fingers. If you like alot of food and have no taste buds then this is the place for you.

First of all if you prefer only fried food this is not your place. Everything is either broiled, steamed or raw. The atmosphere is casual to the extreme so come as you are. You will sit outside or in a screened in porch. The food portions are huge so share and dig in! I would recommend the Low Country Boil, Crab legs or their BBQ chicken/ribs. Enjoy!

Kids loved feeding the alligators.

The fact that it's been featured on TV made me curious. The parking is terrible. The hostesses appeared to be young high school girls. The food was cold. For $16. You get 4 Crab Legs,Shrimp and a corn on the cob. The shrimp were not deviened. They serve everything in disposable dishes. There are bugs everywhere, stray cats wondering around and ...

We've gone to The Crab Shack on every visit to Tybee Island,never have we had a bad meal.The atmosphere is laid back and local. The noise level can be high but just adds to the fact of everyone having a good time. The sampler platters are always more than we can eat.

The Crab Shack is a very simple country-type of restuarant. This was our family's first and last visit to the shack. One of the things we noticed while there was the sour smell from the marsh. Their dishes were disposable. The amount of food recieved was not worth the cost of the meal. The large (mist)fans on the walls were rusted and very ...

After several nice trips to the Crab Shack our latest proved to be our last. Seated next to a table of people who were drunk, loud, and extremely gross. Complained to waitress who jokingly asked them to tone it down and then proceeded to chat it up with them at every chance. Deviled crab was cold, slaw inedible. Complaints to manager were fruitless.
