We had the biggest crab leg ever! The crab was fresh and so good! The place is just a stand on the pier and the sitting was folding tables but was still fun. It was raining but they had tents to eat in. We had a lot of fun. They also had homemade Rootbeer which was cold and so good!... More

Everything I ate was fabulous!! It's a must!! The bisque and snow pops are great. Love the sauce for the crab cakes! Bring a jacket and you'll be just fine.

This is my second time visiting Tracy's Crab Shack. I still remembered from my last visit before the Top Chef fame and determined this is a 'can't missed' for me and my wife. During the recent visit, nothing has changed, the crew is still friendly and happy to serve and the crab and the bisque are as tasty as before.... More

Words can't describe how tasty, fresh and delish their food is. I would fill a bathtub with their crab bisque and bathe in it if I could afford it. King crab legs and snow pops are an absolute must. Their crab is so sweet it doesn't even need butter. Trust me, if you are a crab fan eat here!

We just found out about Tracy's and it was our 3rd time to Juneau! How did we miss this? We had a sunny day, found a table in the warm sun and enjoyed the combo of 1 KC leg, a bowl of bisque and crab cakes (they also give you their delicious rolls with the meal). There was just the... More

I was in Juneau on vacation, attending my niece's wedding and visiting Juneau for the week. Since it was my first trip to Alaska I wanted to experience as much local as I could. One of those was my first real Alaskan King Crab. Hands down the only place that came up was Tracy's. The food was great, nothing fancy... More

You can't leave Juno without eating at Tracy's Crab Shack. The food is delicious and Tracy serves the best Crab Bisque we have ever eaten. The reason we did not rate it 5 stars is the fact that it is located on the cruise ship dock (for obvious reasons) and when ships are in port they, unfortunately, are the view... More

When you walk along the streets of Juneau nestled back near the docks is a white tent with a crab painted on top, this would be Tracy's crab shack. While standing in line we got to sample some bisque (FANTASTIC) we split the combo which had a king crab leg, more bisque, crab cakes and bread. My mouth waters just... More

My husband and I took a cruise for our 25th anniversary and the ship made a stop in Juneau. I had read all the fabulous reviews on the king crab served at Tracy's. This was the BEST crab we have ever tasted. We ordered our crab, grabbed a cold beer and they brought it over to us. HUGE king crab... More

The food outdoes your expectations when you first see what looks like a make-shift carnival eatery by the water. Savory bisque that truly melts in your mouth. Seating area is picnic style so that may or may not work for you. Don't go if you are wearing white pants :)
