We ate lunch there on Father's Day in June, 2009. I had the crab cakes, which were the best I've ever eaten. It's so good, you really don't even need the sauce. The servings are more than generous. We also had the sampler appetizer platter. Even the chicken is fabulous. Some people mentioned rude wait staff, but I want to... more

Wow! This place is filthy. I wish they had a HAZMAT wash down station upon leaving. The staff is only there to earn a paycheck. No visible management on the floor. I looked at the menu and felt the sticky table. I could not bring myself to order anything. The wait staff was doing some sort of dance and chant... more

I've dined twice at this restaurant, for one reason. The playground. I love that I can sit and eat, and my son can play, if he wants to. The first time I went I ordered a salad that said it had "mixed greens", and it was all iceberg lettuce. It was pretty disappointing. The second time, I got mahi mahi... more

We love Maryland crabs, but can't get there. This was a great substitute for them. We got the Joe's Crab streamer bucket or something like that. This was for two at $39.99 with steamed crabs, steamed shrimp, new potatoes, corn on the cob, and saugage. It was good and extremely kid friendly for our 1 year old and 4 year... more

Husband and I went on my birthday. The closest location was a hour and a half drive from our home, but was well worth the drive! We had shared a bucket of crabs and a bucket of beer and it was fantastic. We had the spicy blend which was very spicy, but not too much and washed down well with... more

I had lunch at Joe's on Dec 23, 2007. Restaurant was about 1/3 full, and I was seated and had my drinks almost immediately. I ordered the crabcake sandwich which was fantastic and will likely order again. My waitress was very friendly and attentive (which is normal at any Joe's Crab Shack), she refilled my coke without me asking, asked... more
