Loved this place. All the food was delicious . The lobster roll had so much lobster. The clam chowder was better than I expected. The service was great. The vibe/ambience was great. Really good energy. Can’t wait to go back.

The wings and fries were cooked to perfection. Alaskan crab leb legs in the shaking sauce was to damn good. My husband had the crawfish which he enjoyed very much. And the shrimp were plumb and juicy.

I ordered food as well as a drink to go online, I got to the restaurant & they were out of the drink supposedly (they could’ve said it over the phone) and made me wait over 15 minutes for a replacement. Ended up getting a refund instead, bad customer service skills.

The one in Brooklyn is the best one hands down !! My sauce literally had no flavor …..like how !? I ordered shaking hot sauce and it was nothing shaking hot about it lol I was like “oh nah this not the shaking crab I was feening for” it was cool though the boil wasn’t nasty it was just flavorless lol I had to order more sauce on the side because they barely put any in the bag

Drinks were fire & the ambiance was live Food was a bit cold though and shrimps could’ve been cleaned way better.

Didn’t come in too long before closing which I know is looked down upon before closing but i managed to place an order in and got the non lobster Mac and cheese and it was OUTSTANDING. So flavorful! Would come back for just that! So good!

I visited this Shaking Crab restaurant location in Clifton, NJ after calling them in advance and inquiring what time their kitchen closes and what time I can be seated. The young girl that picked up the phone stated that I can be seated up until 10:15 PM, so I drove many miles to eat dinner here last night and when I get there, to my dismay, the same girl tells me that I cannot be seated inside and only takeout orders are being accepted. I ended up leaving hungry and upset. Next time, please do not lie to your customers.
