Joe’s Crab Shack

Great service. Matt did a great job. We have had him before and Matt continues to be wonderful. Restaurant is nice for young kids with the playland and beach, enclosed area. Kids love it. Food is good, everybody is full. My favorite is the chipotle bacon burger. Not seafood. I know. But that’s me. I like burgers.

Really great food tonight awesome service from JAKE on point with everything… he deserves a raise for sure… good loookin in that steak for my mother in law

The (Crab Shack) restaurant is so very good… hot, fresh & just great — we love the crab legs here, and the seafood buckets… have a cold beer and a bucket of crab, it don’t get any better than that… love it.

Love this place now ! Has great hours so we can come have some yummy food after work. Were greeted very nice and dont have to wait long for a table. Very friendly staff and delicious food, definitely will be back .I recommend the cajan steam pot !

The only bad thing about this place is how much I overeat every Wednesday with their all you can eat snow crab legs. I love it.

Joe’s Crab Shack is delicious, I give them 5 stars because, their staff is friendly especially Jamie :) she is always very helpful, kind, and cheerful. My daughter loves their food, it is our family’s favorite restaurant. Therefor I strongly recommend it :)

celebrated my mother’s 50^th birthday here on their AYCE snow crab wednesday! we went early afternoon around 1pm and it was surprisingly not that busy. we were greeted & sat very promptly. the server (forgot his name :() was super friendly and accommodating.
there were 6 adults total, including 3 very hungry men. we all did the AYCE and were able to try all the flavors. our favorite was the old bay classic seasoning. the crab did take a while to come out because we killed our orders so fast. they limit the ordering to ½ lb at a time after the first lb. the server realized that it wasn’t working because we’d finish so fast so he’d put in another round as soon as he dropped off the current.
the manager, ROBERT, was extremely attentive to our needs as well. i believe we were a handful (extra butter, lemons, refills, more crab!!) but the server & robert were superstars and really made my mom’s birthday seamlessly special. thank you so much! we’ll be back for more.

Loved the waiter! Super nice and personable! The food came out perfect and so did the rest of my party. The only thing is that I got really sick off of just eating the chicken.

Wednesday nights all you can eat crab for thirty bucks. Nothing more really need to be said. I will continue though to say the staff is always friendly and fun. A few times a night there will be dancing to the music or wishing someone a happy birthday. This will definitely be my Wednesday night destination at least a few times a month. Also happy hour from 4 to 7 with $ 5 apps and $ 3 beers.

We have been going to Joe’s every month for over 6 years. It has always been my favorite place to eat. Not until today have I ever had anything negative to say. The staff and the manager on during our «service» were extremely lacking. The food was the worst I’ve ever had. After all these years of going I have decided that I may not return.

I’m a huge fan of seafoods, but I am picky about what I eat. Joe’s Crab Shack is probably the best restaurant I’ve eaten that’s similar to Crab Pot in Seattle. I tried Boiling Crab and was not impressed, but Joe’s Crab Shack? Definitely satisfied my standards!
The menu varied. I only tried the steam pots — the KJ Steam Pot and the newly added Texas Steam Pot. Both were filling and tasteful! The portions were slightly large but big enough to be finished.
The corn was sweet, but not too sweet. The crab legs were amazing in size and taste! So. Much. Meat.
I had a great first impression here, with the food and the customer service. Our waitress was very kind and constantly checked up on us.
I recommend this place for people who aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty when eating. Also, if you ever tried Crab Pot in Seattle and enjoyed it then you’ll definitely enjoy Joe’s Crab Shack :)

Really bad food, very disappointing!!! Lobster and crab was over salted and smelled way too fishy! My husband ordered steak and it was just as bad. Not coming back again!

Run… This place should be condemned. Food is horrible, bathrooms are over run. This makes all the Joes Crab Shacks look Horrible
Lobster over cooked and was the size of a large prawn
Oysters were spoiled
Corn was under cooked too hard to eat
Crab legs over cooked and barely legal size

Worst customer service EVER!
Which ever manager was working tonight was not helpful AT ALL (she didn’t even give us her name), when we tried to use a coupon along with along side some family we saw dining here as well. Instead of trying to figure out a solution she (the manager) basically said we could deal with it or we could leave! So much for enjoying a birthday dinner.
The food was good but had a bitter taste after experiencing this with the manager.

Mgr Robert Stone Jr. And Server Dominique were top of the line rep of Joe’s Crab Shack– Henderson!
Dominique’s personality was a perfect example for any server to follow!
And Robert was a Class Act Manager from Minnesota!
DT from Denver

I’ve dined here a couple times being its so close to where I reside at. I almost always get the same thing and opt for the steam pots. I get the joes classic steam pot and ask for a lot of Cajun seasoning on it. Food was delicious, and service was good. I only come out to joes whenever I’m feeling a bit lazy to buy and cook my own seafood haha!

Great service unlike their Rainbow location. I would make the drive to go back to this location. Employees and manager were very friendly and helpful. Great food like always. The Redfish and Lobster is delicious.

Went on Wednesday to find out they had an All you can eat crab leg special where you can even have each batch prepared differently. We definitely took advantage. The crabs were amazing & our server was super friendly & attentive.

Newest cajun restaurant added to the battle.
The best item I find is, actually the beef burger, very well grilled and seasoned.
We had the 2 lobster pot and it was pretty good, it seemed like a huge pot but actually really isnt that much, shrimp is not 1 lb as it is supposed to be, potato rather blend, sauce wise the usual olive and butter just isn’t as good as the special sauce other cajun restaurants have. Dont forget the desert, which is pretty good (too sweat for me).
Service and ambiance is pretty good.

Very disappointed with Joe’s Crabshack.
Oysters were shriveled.
Steamed clams and lobster were overlooked.
Clam chowder and French fries were too salty.
The products were fresh but not prepared properly.
Oysters were fresh but must have been shacked too early and sat too long on ice that they were all shriveled up.
Lobster was fresh but over cooked. Must have sat too long in steamer pots.
Kitchen needs retraining on how to properly prepare good and fresh seafood.
Will give Joe’s another try when you’ve retrained kitchen. Give me a holler then.

Experience: Met some of my girls here for a «paint night». It was 7pm on a Wednesday.
Facility: Decent place for a franchise. We sat literally in the back room, since the group of all the painters was so big.
Service: The waitress assigned to the back room seemed pretty overwhelmed. We had to waive her down and asked for a drink and the menu. She came back a Ott 10minutes later with a menu in hand, but gave it to another lady. Huh!!! Couldn’t she bring mine at the same time? Luckily, the lady was sitting in front of me, and shared gets with us. About 20min later, I finally got my beer and my menu. The only thing the waitress did right was when they messed up my friend’s drink, she gave it to her for free.
Food: wow, was I disappointed. I ordered the coconut shrimp 2/​5, since this was easy finger food to eat while painting. The portion was big, and the fries were good, but that’s all I have to say that was positive. The shrimp was very dry and overcooked. The cole slaw obviously was pre-​portioned and sat for a while uncovered, because it had a film on it. I didn’t even try it. I really was disappointed and only ate 2 shrimp.
Overall: I might come back again to a Joe’s, but I won’t order the shrimp, and probably won’t come to this one. I guess I would eat one of the pots with steamed seafood eat time.

A good cheap fried fish joint. Steamed Mussels are great too!
Staff is kind of «not there for you», but it is a corporate chain so I imagine low paid manager/​babysitters and everyone is just concerned with going through the motions of their «Points of Service» so the Corporate Overseers don’t have that talk with you about your «Flair»
Fried Fish Platters are the way to go, they tend to fail at the harder cooking techniques

The manager Amber was really nice and irrationally talked to us and every other table. The service was fabulous as well.
I had the sampler platter, the east coast platter and had the shark bite + pineapple piña colada. Food and drinks were all amazing but I was really impressed with the fabulous service definitely a fun place to go for dinner.

My wife is a picky eater. I guess we were not specific when ordering her crab. She said it was just ok, not great. She sad she likes the crab at Red Lobster better. I ordered the coconut shrimp. It was good, however, I’ve had better at Red Lobster & Rib & Chop House. The key lime pie was to die for! I would come back just for the key lime pie. Be forewarned, one serving of the key lime pie is really big. After a big dinner, it was a good size for sharing.

That was an experience I don’t care to repeat. The servers were friendly enough but the food, not so much. The batter for the shrimp was so heavy I could have used it for floor mats. There was no flavor in the hush puppies. I did have 1 of the category 5 hurricane drinks, that was good. All in all this was my first and probably last visit to Joe’s Crab Shack.

We visit here once a year after working an event. We’ve come here for 5+ years and it is now our guild tradition. Always a large party. We have always had amazing service, great food, and unending patience as we can be quite rowdy at times. Or servers have always been personable and playful. Food is always great. Only disappointment was this year there was no carwash or macarena dancing… But we made up for it with our own sword fight. I look forward to our annual visit and can’t wait for next year!

Went Friday night, 6:00, figured to be waiting for a table, got right in. Awesome.
We were looking for some quiet time to unwind, maybe Joe’s atmosphere wasn’t the best choice, but we were in the mood for crab legs… so.
Basically, everything was good. Service was good, food was good.
What I didn’t like was people interrupting our meal to hustle raffle tickets for some charity promotion they were promoting. That might sound harsh, but if they want to donate, then do it, and if I want to donate, I will. I don’t want to be hustled while I’m eating. Sorry.
Looking for other crab leg joints… suggestions?

It was such a great place. The service was absolutely amazing, the food came out quick and it was a beautiful setting. Our server Tony was really really great and he always made sure we had what we needed and he was very outgoing with an awesome personality!

I am now a true fan of Bairdi crab. Never heard of it before, usually it’s King, Snow, Dungeness, and sometimes Queen, but now I know if it’s being offered, Bairdi is the way to go. The meat is sweet, and reminds me of Snow crab, just bigger!
Our waitress was friendly, I want to say her name is Ashley, but honestly I could be mistaken. She topped our drinks off, and made suggestions when asked. Sweet kid.
No dancing on this visit, probably because there were only a couple of people in the restaurant at 3pm in the afternoon. The manager checked in on us, and was very attentive, but we had no problems with our service or our food.

Yeah — this was a disappoint.
1. We were seated and our waiter «Brady» took 30 min before coming over on a very slow night!
2. Nice warm evening so we opted for outside. big mistake.they have an outside play area and the children were screaming & throwing sand & running into the tables.
3. The food is cold when served.
Thumbs down for this visit.

We walked in, and the entire staff was doing the chacha slide. We stood and waited for a good 5 minutes before ANY one even acknowledged us. Another couple walked in… took menus and seated themselves.
Our server was Senta and she was kind and funny. We ordered a dozen oysters on the half shell. Mahi tacos, southern stuffed shrimp and a kids chicken tenders. I asked for extra avocado lime dressing.
Oysters come, and they are delicious, as always.
As we are waiting for food, a balloon artist comes and asks to make our daughter a balloon animal. We decline.
As our food comes… No extra dressing for me. We wait. Our waitress comes by twice and still doesn’t have it.
The bacon wrapped around the shrimp could have been a little crisper. But other than that, they were great. My dressing finally arrives, and now we wait for refills on water… Which also doesn’t come right away. She forgets about two times, long enough for us to all be done with our meal.
While she was forgetful, she is great with kids. She painted a zebra for my daughter on her dessert plate (current favorite animal) .
Service and attention is kind of lacking.

The most fun & happier restaurant in Las Vegas! It’s my boyfriend & I first time here, but we already felt the happiness ambiance & comfortable in this restaurant. The food was amazing also, we ordered Garlicky Mussels for appetizer and it was sooo delicious. The main course about to serve now the waitress & chef’s all dancing and entertain all customer with the fun music every 30 min or so. Kids were all dancing around with the waitress, cool place! Overall, we will def come back

You get huge portions for the price you’re paying. I recommend their steampots 100%! They could have been seasoned a little better but amazing nonetheless if you’re looking to fill a seafood craving.
Appetizers are delicious as well. Stuffed mushrooms were nice and cheesey, Jack Daniel’s sampler was full of crispy, flavorful options and a delicious dip. Drinks are bottomless to wash down all the heavy stuff you’ll be eating.
Service was phenomenal! Waiter was very attentive to us and talked story for a while during our meal and when we were waiting for our check. Manager came out and thanked us for dining at Joe’s too. They are doing something right and keeping customers happy!

This was my first time here. Got the steamed snow crab pot with fries and hush puppies. The food was really good. Plenty of crab legs, and the fries were pretty good. The hush puppies had really good flavor. It just seemed like so much work to enjoy a meal. Everyone was so busy cracking crab legs that there was not much conversation.
They give you bibs to wear, which is good. However, I was not really pleased with the ‘funny’ sayings the waitress wrote on them. My father-​in-​law had one that was cute, it said ‘Love me some crab’. My husband was given one that read ‘My waitress gave me crabs’, and mine said ‘I came for a good time, and all I got were crabs’. Maybe if I had been in a party state of mind, or with a big group of friends I would have found this a bit funnier than I did.
The stars are for the food. The waitress was very nice, but a bit overwhelming at times. Her heavy perfume was kind of unexpected at a restaurant.
We sat in a booth, and for some reason my husband and I were really uncomfortable. Both of us had really stiff muscles part way through our meal. It was if the springs inside of the seats were all busted.
If I was to return, I would have to try something completely different. I saw someone get a plate of nachos. Not sure what was on them, but they looked good.

Really upset with myself as I forgot to check in on Unilocal!
Anyway, 2^nd time here @ Joe’s and it was as nice as the first~ just apps & cocktails both DEEELISH! They really have great cocktails especially the Patio Punch very nice taste and cold for the HOT days here in Henderson.
Our app was the Coconut Shrimp, also quite good and generous portion certainly enough for sharing.
The servicer, Joe was very attentive, as always and he was also the bartender~ so this is a great guy to become friends with. No rush and easily paced allowed us to chat and catch up as we girls like to do
