The best place to eat. The food are very tasty especially headless shrimp and service are excellent way better than boiling crab.
This is THE best and has de-thrones Boiling Crab as my place to go for great peel and eat shrimp. I like that the shrimp are huge and easy to peel. They also have clams and other seafood. The sauces are also great.

Love this place the shrimp combo was the best taste is awesome beats the boiling crab sorry
I'll never patronage the Boiling Crab ever again!!!! This place have some damn good seasonings and crawfish.
Hands down the best crawfish place ever! So delicious! Generous portions with huge crawfish and shrimp! I just wish they would tone down their "mild" spicyness, cause let me tell you, I could barely handle the mild one. I can only imagine what the super spicy one tastes like!🔥🔥🔥🔥 Either way, we will definitely be returning soon!🤗🤗🤗
You want your anus be on fire after the meal, order your crawfish with spicy level as hot, that's how you get your ass on fire.
But overall, I love this place.

One of our new favorite places to dine! Delicious and reasonably priced! Great casual, upbeat dining environment and friendly service!
Took a trip to San Jose from seattle to check out some good ole crawfish eaten place. I was NOT disappointed at all here. Great service, great tasty food all around. Best of all was the mini-garlic bread. A must try if you're there.

Food was great and the service amazing! We loved the clam chowder, lobster and shrimp � combo.
Where big time flavorful seafood meets Asian awesomeness. Top shelf. Get pound of shrimp in house popular sauce and order jambalaya!
King crab was great and I don't really eat crab. Lol
well been there 2 times this week. cant wait to go back. SO FREEKING YUMMY!!!
Great food, great service....loved the clam chowder.
Great service is what strike me most. The food is good although it is hard to compare, cause we don't have this in Arizona. Overall it's an excellent experience.
This place is great. The seafood is bigger than at Boiling Crab. Definitely try the chicken wings.
Awesome deliciously good!way better than boiling crab
Oh. My. My. Delicious! I had the Shrimp Gumbo and it was so flavorful. It tastes like homemade cooking!
We wanted to try a different seafood spot since we always go to the same spot so we decided to go to Claw Shack. We got the mild 1lb shrimp, 1 lb crawfish combo with the Shambalang sauce and an order of garlic noodles. Mild flavor was had a kick of slight spiciness which is the perfect mildness I was looking for. The sauce was good but it could be a bit better. I'm curious to try the other sauces they have! Garlic noodles was a good addition to the seafood since I like to have a mixture of food when eating.
Service was friendly. The servers were very attentive and kept coming up to refill our waters.
This is a great spot for seafood cravings. The spot feels comforting the moment you step in. I would definitely come back to try their other flavors!
The food was absolutely delicious, especially with the hot spice level that I chose, and it didn't disappoint! The service was impressive as well, with our food arriving promptly, and the servers consistently refilling our drinks without any oversight. It was an overall fantastic experience; however, I do wish there was more space to accommodate larger tables. Additionally, a slight reduction in prices would have been appreciated. But aside from those minor points, everything else was excellent!
Comparably good compared to the other popular seafood boil places in the area, with similar wait times. The shambalang sauce was a hit, but I felt their garlic butter could have been more garlicky and buttery. Wings were delicious as well--tried the lemon pepper (crispy and tangy) and the garlic honey (sweet) and enjoyed both. Garlic noodles were also a must, very tasty, with a hint of unexpected sweetness. Service was very pleasant and fast. Overall I would recommend a stop here.
Amazing seafood experience especially their speciality sauces. Their bread rolls and corn go very well with those sauces apart from your choice of seafood. Go have a memorable meal!
The clams ran out when we went so we opted for the mussel/headless shrimp combo in Shambalang sauce and a side of garlic noodles. It was a lot for the 3 of us eaters. I was surprised by the size of the shrimp. Yum!
This order was a special request from family members living out of town. Clawshack is one of the best seafood boil this side of the bayarea. They never seem to run out of people who patiently wait for a table to open. You really get to enjoy a delicious dining experience from a simple menu enhanced by a collection of spice challenging and mouth watering flavors. We always order their delicious shrimp and clam combo drenched in spicy shambalang sauce. An absolute 10/10
Love the shakie sauce very much. The food is served quickly and hot. We four ordered shrimp clam and mussel, all are very fresh and clean. This is a wonderful place for seafood.
This place is hidden gem. While Boiling Crab and Kicking Crab get all the press, this is actually a really good alternative to getting the Cajun-ish styled seafood in a bag.
The pluses are:
- Great fresh seafood, the headless shrimps are particularly great.
- Good prices given the quality of the food.
- Clean and quiet; it's cleaner and comparatively quieter than kicking crab, for example.
- Great service. The young server at our table was cheerful and gave good recommendations. She even brought out the different sauces for us to try out before we ordered.
The downside is that this place is small. So if you have a big party, you'll have to split the group into different tables.
All in all, my wife and I are pretty impressed with this place. Definitely will come back again!
The food is very good the seafood is so 😫😫😫 but sometimes they give you alot a sauce or they also could give you very little sauce so I would recommend to order extra sauce.
Second time coming here because the food is extremely tasty. You get good portions for a great price. The staff gets food out to you pretty quickly. However, the Garlic Noodles had a “tap water” taste this time around. It was a hard taste to mask.
The food was so good, eating with your hands and getting messy is fun. The service was great
Super weird place that should definitely be experienced! The delicious seafood is served in plastic bags on the table and you get to dig into it wearing latex gloves and plastic bibs, sharing a bag with your friends. Great taste though!
Great place to eat, some of the best cajun I've had in a long time.
Went for a friend's birthday and the service was fast and friendly
Food was at our table in less than what felt like 15 20 mins, seafood was NOT covered in a 2inch layer of oil, which is something ive come to expect at this style of restaurant. And they were cooked very well, not overcooked like some other places!
Garlic noodles were al dente and fresh
Fries were perfectly crispy
Icing on the cake, (haha) there was no cake fee!
Only complaints are out of the staff's control
We were a pretty large party of 8 and the restaurant is relatively small so my back was to the path through the restaurant and felt a little bit cramped, but that would not deter me from coming back!
Parking was a little difficult but manageable!
Great seafood boil place in South Bay area. Be prepared for a long wait. Get their garlic noodle and chicken wings.
Loved how they added outdoor seating! And absolutely loved that this place has survived the pandemic!! Food quality is always great here. Fresh seafood, quick service, and the staff is very attentive and friendly.
Had the clam chowder here, and I can honestly say it's on par, or maybe even better then the famed clam chowder from Monterey's Wharf. They put actual huge fresh clams and you can taste the difference.
The Gumbo has so much flavor! Friendly staff!
