This place is just the best when I need some simple Cajun shrimp and potatoes. Love that they sell the sauce separately in a kind of big container as well. I always eat in but a few times went home and had it with rice and that extra sauce on the side was just so perfect. Have brought most of my friends and will keep bringing them for the awesome food and staff. The place is simple but an Amazing experience

Food was hot and came out quickly -- service was good (though we didn't need much help while polishing off our food). Garlic noodles were nice and salty as well! We took home the leftover sauce and were able to make another meal out of it -- great value, filling, and a lovely cozy location.

I have never had a crab bag that makes there sauce using flour. I ordered lemon pepper flavor. The only thing I tasted was flour and butter. I called to tell them how gross the food was and the owner said to get a refund from DoorDash

I was craving clam chowder and this was the closest place that had it. I'm shocked they were okay sending this out... the "soup" had congealed clumps of flour. This clam chowder wasn't even drinkable. You had to chew the flour clumps. If it at least tasted like clam chowder, I'd be okay chewing it and just pretending it's a clam chowder grits or oatmeal or something. Very unique! Never before have I had a clam chowder where it wasn't drinkable, but only chewable due to the flour clumps. It also didn't taste like clam, seafood, or even potato. Perfect for you if you love to chew with the taste of milky flour and celery! I also ordered the fried soft shell crab and fries basket. But given the state of this "soup", I don't trust their seafood or the quality of any of their food. I threw out everything else I ordered (sorry for your sacrifice soft shell crab!) after a few bites because my stomach started feeling nauseous after the "chowder". It's sad when I would have been better off getting a can of clam chowder from a grocery store. Bag O Crab... you gotta do better! I believe in you! If the state of this soup meets your bar in terms of quality food worth serving to patrons, maybe dig your bar out of the depths of hell and move it up to a more terrestrial level. You got this!

They now serve cajun noodle soup which is a seafood ramen that is so tasty! Still have yet to find another seafood boil restaurant in the bay that's better than Bag o Crab. Flavor, freshness, and variety here is amazing. Staff are amazing as well, especially Jenny the manager. 100% recommend coming here

The cheapest combo option was enough to feed 2 of us. The garlic noodles were very good and the oysters are priced very nicely. I would 100% recommend if you like seafood boils.

The broth that it's boiled in is soooo delicious! It's not just water - it's a fabulous sauce, which you can choose from many varieites. The garlic is very generous if that's what you order. I brought the extra sauce home to enjoy again and again. A very unique treat! You can choose how hot/spicy you want it, but be careful because "mild" was extremely hot on the Asian sauce side of the menu.

Delicious, hot, and filling! We ordered the combo 1 w/ mussels and shrimp, calamari rings (w/ fries), and 6 raw oysters. As a party of 3, we left very full. They provided plastic gloves and bibs, but the sauce seems to seep through the gloves a little.
