| - The food is good here. I got blue crabs and a sack of shrimp, trifecta seasoning medium spicy. My husband had a Dungeness crab. The food here is priced by the pound, with a pound being the minimum order. If you order a Dungeness crab, the staff will tell you it is at least a pound and a half. Ours was almost two pounds (you have no choice which one you pick)-- which made the single crab $34 (their "market price was $17 a pound; if you actually go to the market a live crab is about $11 a pound, so significant markup, but that was to be expected in a restaurant). Shrimp had heads on, in my opinion this was in order to get the weight up with actually selling less shrimp in a pound, they were $12/lb. Expensive. Also, I am only giving two stars because the service here is awful. We had a table of 7, there was staff everywhere but we were constantly having to flag people down for assistance-- basic things, like crab crackers/picks forks, etc weren't brought out with the food or on the table; it seemed like they weren't using their staff efficiently although the people we encountered were nice enough. Not sure if we will go back, as there was really no food quality or price difference from Joe's Crab Shack (which actually was probably less expensive) and the service was horrible. We always like to try local restaurants, but I cannot say I would recommend this place just based on the price and quality of service. They do have a full bar and $2 PBRs though, I guess that's a perk. I'm actually sad to say that the closest comparison to this place is Joe's Crab Shack, which IMHO is mediocre but better than Angry Crab.
