Bill was $300+ which wasn’t surprising. They put the 20% tip as service charge. I would’ve actually tipped more but whatever. If they’re good with it, I am. I gave it 4 stars because the employees were cool, friendly and good vibes. I wasn’t real hungry so I didn’t complain about the crab legs. Everything tasted really good. Shrimp, potatoes and such except the crab. The complaint I had was I didn’t feel it was a whole 2 lbs, claws missing from the cluster and they were really small. Constant reminder when I go to these places why I do my own crab boils/steams. The crab is just never cooked right. Undercooked or over cooked, the meat sticks inside the shell and doesn’t slide out. Probably wouldn’t go back because of this and would expect a little more shrimp to counter this and some sausage no extra charge. Everything’s an upcharge. Just pretty pricey for what you get. Hope they read this and do better. Anyway, I feel like crab boil places are like this anywhere. 80% of them will always not properly cook the crab. That’s why I learned to steam and boil them myself. So I can pick the big crabs when they’re in season. Good luck.

This place was so cute, they had an amazing drink menu and the staff was super friendly! We ordered their lobster mac and cheese and a seafood boil a-la-cart and had it covered in their sizzle Cajun sauce. This was the best lobster mac and cheese I’ve ever had usually it is a rip off but every bite I took had lobster in it, it was worth the price for sure and the Mac and cheese sauce was so good perfect roux base.
As for the boil, in our order we did a full size of muscles and half of them were closed, other than that the rest of the seafood was perfect. I loved the fresh garlic and the spices in the cajun sauce whenever I was able to scoop it up. My only complaint was that there was too much oil in the sauce. All the flavor was at the bottom of the pain and oil on top so it was just oil flavoring and not Cajun. We dumped most of the oil out and that’s when the Cajun flavor really started hitting but there wasn’t enough to cover all the seafood. So honestly I’d maybe just ask for more seasoning next time but still it was like a half a cup of oil we took out. If it weren’t for this it would be a 5/5 but it really took away from the whole thing.

Shaking Crab (Williamsburg) was EXCEPTIONAL! It’s really all you need to thoroughly enjoy a quality seafood boil. Great and I can’t stress this enough: GREAT service/staff presence! They check on you thoroughly throughout your meal. Drinks were GREAT! Food was GREAT! (We went with the ‘Regular’ heat level which was still just enough & flavorful. For all of the key things that matter in a great dining experience, they check them off. Would definitely come again!

I was planning to go eat at the restaurant but ended up didn’t go because I was sick, so I order delivery instead. Food came on time but somehow it leaked so bad outside the bag. I got Twin Lobster Tails: for the price, I feel it a bit higher price than another Cajun restaurant, plus it is kind of small. Snow Crab Legs: is good but I expected the sauce to be more spicy than oily.
Overall, the food is good. I wish I could go to eat at the restaurant. It would be better.

Ordered on DoorDash for pickup and everything was great! I got the Shaking sauce and it was super flavorful and fresh. It was a little heavy on the garlic for my taste, but still a solid 9/10. The seafood was really fresh, and the portion size was generous. I ordered one serving, but with sides it could easily feed two. Definitely recommend!

The food was incredible and ambiance was a vibe! We got the Jumbo shaker tray and the shaking sauce was AMAZING! The server Kaden made us feel right at home and was hilarious. We even got to take shots with the head chef at the end. Also, MUST try the banana pudding. Absolutely coming back soon!!

Went and ordered the groupoun special. I found this deal where can get a jumbo seafood boil with one side on Groupon. The Shaking Crab sauce is AMAZING. The macaroni and cheese was also so good! I don’t have a picture of the Mac and cheese. The photo doesn’t do it any justice but when you go make sure you try the Shaking Crab Sauce!
