| - I'm a big fanatic when it comes to spicy seafood in a bag! I've tried many different names/restaurants and came across Angry Crab during my visit in Phoenix this past weekend and would like to share my reviews.
*****Environment: The place is definitely pretty spacious. Definitely one of the biggest I've see n compared to other competitors. I do like the big projector TV displayed by the bar, giving this place a great place for game nights and also the wooded walls where they allow you to write and doodle. I didn't feel crowded here at all. The place looked clean and smelled good for being a place that serves this type of food. The bathroom was clean and so were the heavy duty hand washing stations.
***Food: The food was alright, it wasn't the best flavored I've had but it definitely was up there as far as spice levels. You have an option to choose from 1-5, 1 being the lease and 5 being deadly. Let's just say I got a 4 and my nose was running while I was eating. I ordered the Snow Crab, Crawfish and Shrimp. The flavor was a little on the weak side. For picking the Trifecta flavor I felt it was lacking the garlic flavor and the sauce was very minimal to where the seafood couldn't take in the flavor as much. I was a little disappointed in the sauce. Also the Oysters I ordered weren't as rich in flavor, not sure if it was a bad batch. The crawfish, I could tell were previously frozen as they were dark and the shells were tender. Other places I know charge cheaper for frozen vs fresh crawfish. But the shrimp and snow crab I feel was a good size, quality over the rest. If I was to come back I'd probably just order the shrimp or snow crab.
*Service: The server was a little interesting. It took a little longer than expected to receive my beer and also I wasn't sure if he was try to crack jokes to be funny? The reason I said that was because he offered bibs to everyone at the table. However when he offered one to my brother, he said he didn't have enough to cover him since he was a bigger guy. I found that definitely offensive, especially to crack fat jokes when we haven't established any type of friendship connections. I feel one would need to be at a certain friendship level before cracking fat jokes. My brother was ok with it, however I was. I felt it was rude and unacceptable.
Overall, I will give this place a 3 star. Would I return, most likely not, for the price I could receive much better service and food elsewhere.
