Reviews for Red Claws Crab Shack in Dallas, TX
A decent place if you are eager to have a crab boil! The taste of the sauces are not as pronounced and punchy like The Boiling... Crab. The fried cat fish's taste profile was very underwhelming including a stale smell. The crab - Snow and King were fresh butthe lacklustre boil made it between meh and okk. The Cajun fries are nowhere near the fries you get at other southern joints.The fried rice (without any meat is what we ordered) was made fresh but the taste again was off - as in, the rice smelled offishy flavor and felt like some old batch was mixed with the new or the same spatula/pan used for a seafood based fried rice wasused to make this too! If I were them, I would do a revisit of the kitchen staff and help them understand how to bring theflavors forward Good luck folks! Read more
Went here with the wife and kids. Atmosphere was good but the food wasn?t really seasoned. The crab was over cooked and the... shrimp were bland. Drinks were alright. Read more
Nice and clean,has gloves, trash bucket,tin pan to put your food in, also pretty good drinks, kinda high priced though but the... food is good. Read more
The worst seafood boil I have ever eaten. Seriously. The Cajun sauce tasted oily. Although, it tasted terrible I still ate what... I could. Not to mention $75 and no lobster tail included. Sure if you haven?t eaten a Louisiana seafood boil you may think redcraw seafood boil is good. I tried seafood boils in ATL, Vegas, Raleigh and they were all good, of course not quite likeLouisiana however, no complaints. Anywhere else this exact boil with a lobster tail would be no more then $65 dollars minus thesausage that looks like somebody?s thumb. The shrimp with no head was a extra charge. They looked like they been soaking in muddirty looking. A real bad experience at this place. My seafood boil lovers we know a good seafood boil. THIS REVIEW IS BASED ONMY PERSON EXPERIENCE ONLY!!!

This restaurant is located in a strip mall just off Frankford Rd. It is easy to find and easy to get in and out of. There is... disabled parking right in front, and plenty of regular parking around it. When I walked in, I was pleasantly surprised by itsdecor and feel. It was fun and lively, as well. I was in for a late lunch and they were filling up. They have some great choiceson the menu. There is also a small bar that you can sit at. The music was playing loud, but not so loud that you can't hold aconversation. I got the shrimp basket with Cajun fries. I ordered a side of hush puppies to try, as well. The shrimp was prettygood. I didn't notice any Cajun flavors on those, pretty sure they were just a regular order. The fries were delicious. Thetartar sauce and cocktail sauce were well made. The hush puppies were too plain and mushy on the inside for me. Kind of remindedme of a cake pop, inside. But, my sister loved them. Overall, it was a good experience. The staff was friendly and they werequick with everyone's orders. Read more
This place is amazing! It's definitely ain't no Red Lobster cause this has flavor!! I did the Cajun spice with the Mild heat... level it was perfect! Had 3lbs Crab legs, sausage, craw fish, shrimp, potatoes, and corn all tasted amazing! Definitely worthchecking them out! Went right after lunch time place wants bust but was steady with to go orders. Music was turnt up and thevibe was pretty good and staff sure didn't mind me making a mess and were very friendly! Spent about $180 which wasn't bad. Ithink for the same thing I paid $200 at another place. But the flavor at Red Claw was so much better! Definitely be back! Read more
Credit card machine was down. After waiting 15 min in line. Get to the cash register and was told they only accept cash. The... garlic noodles with shrimp was overcooked. The best thing was the beer was ice cold. Never. I mean never order the "catfish"!It's not real catfish. It's SWAI. Not coming back. My $100 was wasted. Ugggh Read more
This seafood boil had no flavor and there are no prices on the menu, they DO NOT actually serve you, you have to stand at the... counter and order like you?re at McDonald?s. The only thing I can say was that the place seemed clean. Won?t be back Read more
