Angry Crab Who? Hot and Juicy what? LA Crab Shack knocks all of them out of the water!
The same way I feel about Angry Crab is the same way I feel about Hot and Juicy ... they both steam their seafood wayyyy too long, everything is chewy or mushy and way too salty! LA Crab Shack somehow managed to seal the deal with their way of cooking. The similarities are uncanny. All three restaurants offer the "Trifecta" cooking style but LA Crab Shack's Trifecta is tastier and more flavorful. It's garlicky-ier than the other restaurants and not in an overbearing way. It's delicious! I ordered a pound of steamed shrimp, half pound of mussels, 1 sausage, 2 potatoes and 1 ear of corn. I should have ordered 2 ears of corn. They were that good!
I believe when I checked them out they've only been around for about a week at that point. This was almost 2 months ago. I hope the quality of the food and cooking is just as good. I hope it hasn't changed before I get a chance to go back.
