About

Now with a location near you, you can taste the global culinary sensation called Shaking Crab. Bib-up and get your gloves on and get ready to dive into deliciousness. At this seafood eatery, it's all about making the freshest, the tastiest, and the best seafood just how you like it. First, start by picking your favorite seafood. Among the options are whole Dungeness crab, Alaskan king crab legs, lobsters, blue crab, shrimp, crawfish and more. Then, get saucy. Pick from their signature Shaking house spice with a mild kick, or try the Asian-inspired Seoul sauce. Next, you can amp up the flavor; go for medium, hot, or Shakin' hot. All that's left to do is pick add-ins like corn, sausage, potato, and even quail eggs. It's made fresh and fabulous, and your mammoth feast is brought out hot and delicious. There's more on the menu if you're not in the mood for an interactive meal, including lobster rolls, po'boys, gumbo, and a terrific variety of fried seafood. It's all amazing, so when you're in the mood for seafood, head to Shaking Crab!

  • the food was delicious-- quaint spot without frills but exactly what we needed for dinner in Boston

    CTDallas, TXSeptember 16, 2025

  • Great food and quick service but the bathroom and the upkeep was not the best. Rest rooms did not have toilet paper and soap. We needed to ask for it then they only replenished it. Mind you it was early in the evening.
