| - The overall experience and ambiance if this place is great. We rolled up early evening on a Friday night and it was packed with people pouring out of the door and strewn about the patio. Hostess told us our wait would be around 30 minutes (totally fine) so we grabbed some drinks at the bar and waited outside on the patio in the cooling misters (nice touch).
The wait turned out to be only about 20 minutes before we were seated, but another 10 or so before we met our waitress. Seemingly annoyed about something (maybe that we were first timers?), she explained the whole procedure of ordering at the Angry Crab Shack and left us to consider our dinner options. The menu is small and uncomplicated, so we figured out what we wanted pretty quickly. However, it was 17 minutes before we caught sight of her again and were able to finally order. We placed our order for new drinks (had been empty for some time), appetizers, and our main course all at once.
Main courses (crawfish and king crab) arrived before the appetizers (charred oysters) which showed up right after we opened our boil bags. This was weird, and it made it hard to enjoy everything while it was still warm. Three of the six charred oysters were SALTY. SO SALTY. Lip-puckering salty. This was also weird, and we wouldn't order them again. The crab and crawfish were both amazingly delicious.
I feel it important to note that our waitress didn't bring us the food or drinks - it was done so by other servers and/or kitchen staff. We didn't see her again until long after dinner and wash-up when we had to flag her down and ask for our check . When she returned, she handed me the check and said, "Here you go" and tried to turn quickly to walk away but I called her back as I already had my credit card in my hand and ready to send.
We tipped 10% - the lowest we ever do - to reflect our disappointment in her service. As we were standing to leave, she swooped in and grabbed the check to open and look at it in front of us (how crass) and then, glaring, and in the most condescending voice I've ever heard, said, "THANK you! Have a GREAT evening..."
We thought about stopping and talking to a manager on the way out to relay our experience, but they were still really busy, and we were on our way somewhere else. It'll probably be a while, but we'll definitely go back and give them another shot at some point.
TL;DR - 5 star atmosphere, 5 star main courses, 2 star appetizers, 1 star service.
