Got crab legs of course! They were very good! It was extremely loud in there though and it could use some updating. more

We always have a good time here. The waiters and waitresses dance every now & then and are very friendly. I usually order the coconut shrimp, they are really good. more

We had a late lunch. Coconut shrimp were awesome and a real value. The bread pudding was also really good and a large enough portion to feed two. The manager and wait staff were friendly and attentive. The view of the Gulf was pretty. Nice experience. more

Went to Joe's as we do every trip to Galveston. Read some reviews that it had changed and was no longer the fun place we were used to. It isn't true.

I have been to Joe's Crab Shack on the harbor three times in the past year. Although the food was fine the service was terrible.
