Red Claws crab shack definitely delivered on the flavor (chefs kiss) , the bang for our buck and the overall experience customer service wise! Our group of 3 was visiting Arlington Tx for a conference and we love seafood so we found Red Claw Crabs on YELP of course ! Unlike some other seafood establishments you order and pay at the counter as soon as you arrive then the food that you order is delivered to your table. I ordered their combo #3 and added Ramen and a strawberry margarita I believe. ALL OF MY FOOD WAS DELICIOUS my taste buds are literary having flash backs as I type. The only reason for the 4 stars is that the girl at the counter forgot to add an item that I requested to my order even though I mentioned 2-3 times. I'd definitely go back and find though

We have been to several crab restaurants and we definitely do not change to Red Crab, the seafood is always fresh, the fish breaded, the rice mixed and the ramen mixed with the medium Cajun sauce we go at least twice a month and the team always very friendly and great place for looking a game too.

Service is always A+. There was a remodel since I was there last. So my signature is no longer written in the spot. The wood panels were clean...lol. lots of Tvs. Music was enjoyable. Water always tastes weird to me. I don't go there for the water. The crab. Cooked to perfection. Seasoning was medium. A little heavy on the garlic but no complaints here. Everything was delish.

God was amazing!! Right level of heat. Crab, headless shrimp, sausage, and corn was great. We added a bag of Ramen which made our meal even better.

I stopped coming here over a year ago because the sauce wasn't the same. I'm so happy I decided to come back and give them a try. They've made some minor changes to the decor inside. I like it. The service was the same as it's always been. The food was absolutely delicious. They are the best crab spot in DFW hands down. It's still not as spicy as it used to be but the flavor is on point!

The food was so good when I went. Fresh and came out quick. the shrimp didn't taste fishy, the crawfish and crab legs was flavorful on the inside and out and the spicy ranch wings was 10/10. Drinks could've been better but definitely worth it during happy hour. I enjoyed myself and the server was super chill.
