Joe’s Crab Shack

Places like this should not even exist in Maryland and that’s why it ia closed. Overpriced, subpar frozen seafood and managers more concerned with their staff singing songs (which is annoying) rather than waiting on their customers.

Another visit to one of my favorite sea food spots. Tonight I tried something new, the cedar smoked salmon. It was good, Im starting to try that more than fish when I go out now. Our server brought a free appetizer because the chef took a long time to cook the steak my fiancé had. We chose the mozzarella sticks. Im a cheeseaholic so these were pretty darn tasty to me!
My fiancé had a rib eye steak, cooked med-​well. It looked a lil under to me but he liked it anyway. He also gave me his hushpuppies. Theyre so much better there than most places Ive been. Back to my salmon… it came with a twice baked potato cake which was a smashed potato with cheese and bacon on it. I dont know of anything that has potato, bacon and cheese that isnt good. this was no diffetent. I liked it alot.
My drink was a hurricane, I dont know what was in it but I drank every drop of it and ate the pineapple garnish… quickly & with a smile.
Finally. lets talk about the service. Our servers name was Pez.(like the candy) she was super friendly. had a big pretty smile and came around just enough to keep us happy and wanting for nothing. I was impressed with her. She was such a great person to represent Joes. We tipped her accordingly. She was great!
I will be back soon Joes. Loved everything!

Well it’s a chain restaurant. Not much to say. My daughter loves it but I could never eat there again and be fine. Wouldn’t miss it. The food is ok, the prices are high and the service is mediocre. I’d rather go to a local seafood restaurant where my food tastes fresh not watery and frozen or go buy my owe and cook it for half the price. Eat At Joe’s… No thank you.

Not awful, but not good.
Playground gets an A+!
We wanted to love this place, it looks so cute from the outside and it has a playground!!!
But, the food was just not to my liking. The steam pot pictured in the menu was comparable to what I had at a nice little restaurant in Canton, but when the food came out I was very disappointed. The food maybe filled half the pot. Not worth the price I paid. The drinks: my boyfriend got the Hurricaine Level 5 — tasted gross. I got the Shark Bite — just okay. The only redeeming quality for the drinks is that they are half price on Thursday. Which they still weren’t even worth that.
I will not be back even though my child loved the playground and I loved having a few moments to eat in peace.

Their playground… That’s what drew me in. I have a young daughter. I’ve eaten there twice so that my daughter could play on the playground. The food was exactly what I expected: frozen, imported, over rated, over priced. I had two adults and a 3yo child. Our bill was $ 70 before the tip. The servers were polite but incompetent. Our food took forever and we had to repeatedly ask the server for help. Don’t waste your time or money. Chick-​fil-​a and McDonald’s have playgrounds too.
