I absolutely love eating crabs, so we decided to check this place out--and it didn't disappoint! The crabs were delicious, with a perfectly balanced butter and Cajun sauce that was incredibly flavorful. Honestly, the sauce alone with rice could make a satisfying meal. While I do make Cajun crabs at home and think my recipe is better, their take on it was still amazing. I really enjoyed it and will definitely be coming back for more!

I recently visited Angry Crab, and I was blown away by the experience! The lively, laid-back atmosphere was the perfect setting for an unforgettable seafood meal. Despite being busy, the service was top-notch, with the staff friendly, attentive, and always making sure we had everything we needed. The food was out of this world! The seafood boil was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The sauces, especially the Cajun and garlic butter, added the perfect kick to the meal. I also loved that you could customize your spice level, making it ideal for all tastes. The portions were generous, and every bite was delicious. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu--it's definitely a must-visit for seafood lovers! Don't skip out on the garlic rice and appetizers. The lobster tail and fried calamari were amazing!

Angry Crab is awesome!! I came in with my partner about 7 mins before happy hour ended and was able to put my order in on time. The Happy Hour menu is very clear on their website and it's Mon-Fri 5pm-6:30pm as of this review. The Garlic Crab Fried Rice is delicious, you can really taste the crab flavor. We had to stop ourselves from eating it all before the shrimp came out, since it also goes really well with the Garlic Cajun sauce. The Lemon Pepper wings were fantastic, they could give Wingstop a run for their money. The fried calamari was seasoned well, had a great crisp, and came with two sauces. We got a couple beers off the happy hour menu too. For the main course we got a pound of shrimp, with garlic Cajun sauce, medium spicy with add on of 2 corn cobs. I love getting the whole shrimp since the head has a lot of flavor. The shrimp themselves were a medium size and very juicy. The sauce was great. Me and my partner were stuffed by the end of the meal. For all the food we got, this was definitely a great value price-wise as well. Service was fantastic, we were seated right away on a weekday evening. Our server checked in frequently to make sure we had everything we wanted and filled up water too. There's a convenient hand washing station in the back of the restaurant. Street parking is available on many of the adjacent streets, and you can pay via the Park Chicago app. I definitely recommend angry crab for their seafood boil experience (shrimp in a bag with Cajun butter sauce)!

I picked up 3 "build your bag" with shrimp, corn and potatoes from here. The food was ready when promised and more importantly they had phenomenal customer service. Very friendly and full of smiles. The food itself was really good. But not very filling. Definitely on the pricier side. I ordered level 3 hot with a corn and a potato for $1 each per side. We started making our own Cajun shrimp bags at home and will most likely continue to do so. There's something you're better off doing at home and this is one of them. I can still see myself returning, just not anytime soon.

The Customer Service Was A 5/5!!!! From The Manager/Hostess Faith, My Waiter Oscar And Other Waiter Ashley! They Work As A Team And Theres Wasnt A Time That I Wasnt Be Asked If I Was Okay From All Three. But My Waiter Oscar Was Great All Around! The Food Was Good, Actually Some Of The Best/Fresh King Crab I've Had. Margarita Was Good Also. The Only Cons Were The Calamari Was Decent And I Didnt Like The Cajun Aioli It Came With And I Feel Like The Cajun Sauce In The Boil Was Very Oily. Like The Seasoning Was There But It Was Mostly Oil And They Were Cheap With The Amount Of Sauce. The Tap Water Tasted Weird To Me, Idk It Was A Weird After Taste. Other Than That I Would Recommend If You Are Visiting Or From Chicago!!
