What J B likes about Cj's Crab Shack:
O my! The food was out of this world! The shrimp was the best I have ever had period! Crab cake was fresh with zero filler and they can cook a steak to boot! The atmosphere and views were exactly what you would expect from a restaurant like this, right on the strip out door dining at its best! If you are in the area this is worth the stop..... I will be back!!!! View all feedback. What Charrise P doesn't like about Cj's Crab Shack:
Huge disappointment and price tag. The oysters from the raw bar were still frozen. The crab legs were dry and everything was unseasoned. The only tasty thing on my plate was the Parmesan corn but there was no Parmesan. View all feedback.
