The staff was great and food was ok. If you like spicy food then this is the perfect place. The spices overpowered the flavor of the food. Couldn’t tell if I was eating crab soup or a bowl of chili peppers.

Served cold french fries and was asked if I wanted them replaced after I was half way through my meal. No take off my bill. Not taken off of the bill. Only $2.50 but still cold fries. Fried okra tasted like fried shrimp. Not returning anytime soon.

Charbroiled oysters were ok. Didn’t like the cheese and it was sparse. The cheese tasted like the canned Parmesan rather than fresh Parmesan which is creamy. The portion on the crab claws were extremely small. The onion rings were great!

Read the google reviews, thought I would give The Shack a try. Server was spot on and attentive, the food was barely average. Started with the Calamari app, it was all very small bits & pieces and definitely in the fryer too long. Calamari should have a slightly crispy coating and be tender, this was not even close. The main entree was soft shell crab & fried shrimp. The crab was overcooked and dry, the shrimp was average. For a $44 dinner, this was a disappointment.

Food not always consistent. Someday really good, others not so great. Food comes out cold most of the time. Wait staff good and friendly.

2 Couples. Entrees were Ribeye Steak, Stuffed Crab, Fried Catfish, and Fried Frog Legs. Appetizers were raw oysters on half shell, hush puppies and fried dill pickles. All were excellent. 2 large stuffed crab, a plate of crisp fried catfish, a medium ribeye and 10 frog legs. Plenty to eat. Fantastic service. Great food and companionship. There was a short wait to be seated as this is a popular place.

Husband and I recently had date night here. Got here early and glad we did. I had the $25 special of 3 boiled crabs, 1/2 pound boiled shrimp, corn, sausage, potatoes, dip. One crab was really skinny and the waitress got me another. Wow! Service and food really good. Husband had shrimp poboy and fries. He was happy. I peeled and brought home my leftovers to my 94 y o mama. Everybody was happy! Hope to return soon. Can’t get those delicious, large boiled shrimp out of my mind. Yum!
