Waitress was over worked and running around not her fault. We ordered the crab dip and it took forever to come and when it did it was very oily wasn't a fan. Great atmosphere but would not take the drive again to go

Went here for my birthday with my wife and I must say it was the worst seafood I've EVER had in my life. We ordered dungenous crabs and stuffed flounder with crab meat paired with roasted veggies and roasted potatoes. The crabs were not seasoned just steamed so absolutely no flavor at all. The fish was not seasoned either. The veggies were severely overcooked and the roasted potatoes looked like an old man's testicles. Such a horrible culinary experience I will never return to this place

If you're a band, you better time your breaks in between sets to 3 minutes. Whoever the owner is, he's in dire need of learning how to talk to people. As a restaurant manager myself, I was completely appalled at how he chooses to handle situations. Nothing professional about his demeanor...at all.

Hey everyone, it’s Buried Edge, one of the many bands that play here at Gus’s Crab Shack, and we can’t wait to go back in 2024. Great food, great atmosphere and great people make this one of the best places we play. So check it out for yourself and we will see you on Friday night, February 23, 2024!

Crabs were great, I had the clam chowder and got violent food poisoning. Others had crab soup and no issues.
