One of my favorite food options, service is great, prices are not bad either, as long as you don’t order the King Crab, which was delicious but not worth $70/lbs.For flavor, pick THE WHOLE SHA-BANG! It’s perfect! For spice level, mild spice is perfect for most people, and I can handle spice (like normal brown people spice, not Indian, Northern Chinese region, or Thai level spice), don’t do it higher, you won’t enjoy it unless you like much higher spice levels.There is ALWAYS a line but the lines are not so bad as long as your party size is 4-6 and smaller. Sunday dinner time, they estimated our wait to be ~1h 15mns but we got seated after 23 mns. Parking may looks tricky but just go around a...
Only reason why this isn't a 5 star is because wait was too long. I always get shrimp with the shabang sauce, non spicy. I was disappointed that not a lot of sauce was added. I feel like all restaurants are cutting down quantities or reducing certain things. I understand the expenses BUT we pay more too. Meal as pictured: Fried Calamari Fried oysters Half pound shrimp with Shabang sauce, none spicy (just was tasty) I always order sides of rice, corn, and potatoes (not pictured)
The service was really helpful. She gave subtle cues on the right dishes to order. We picked most of the cues but failed to pick few : Prawn in shabang sauce is pretty good. King crab is good too but little expensive (75$ . Would recommend getting corn as a addon. Won't recommend craw fish unless you are too sure of getting it.
Huge room with open seating for many, many people. Way to noisy for me but the way people were scarfing up their seafood, I guess it didn't matter. I had soft shell crabs/fries. Both very good. Not a cheap place at all with most popular items are Market Price. Lots of craft beers.Parking: close by parking
