Joe's Crab Shack - Harbor Creek

I was so excited to eat here. I ordered a King Crab Steam Pot and they were the worst crab legs I’ve ever had and the shrimp were not deveined. The fried pickles came with 7 pickles for $6.99. Eat somewhere else!

Sadly this was really bad. There are much better restaurants in the area! Waited at the door for about 10 mins to be seated before anyone came over…and the place was empty. Ordered a salad with shrimp. Soggy/brown iceberg lettuce, 4 tiny shrimp. Staff were working hard but it just wasn’t that crowded.

We were the only people at the bar and though the bartender saw us, she refused to serve us. We waited about 15 minutes before leaving. Pathetic.

This place was a mess. There was hardly anyone there when we arrived, so I didn 't expect the service to take the 2+ hours for just 3 people. We sat down, waitress said she 'd bring our bucket, which has condiments, straws, etc. It never came. We ordered drinks, had to ask for straws 3x. We ordered food, after over 45 min. the food for 2 of us came, but the steamer bag came after another 10 min. None of us had silverware. We kept asking for them. One of us had soup, after the steamer bag, the silverware finally came, instead of wrapped in a napkin it came in the servers hand. Like, just in her hand. The soup was ok. The ceasar salad with chicken came with ceasar dressing, which was thick and gelatinous. The salmon was ok. The steamer bag was horrible. The muscles did not open properly which, I believe, signals they are old. The crab was good. The shrimp were large but not very tasty. Then randomly, the waitress brings a hard-boiled egg and says sorry we forgot this in the bag. The desserts were not very tasty despite just being cake. It was definitely NOT worth the $140+. They were running a giveaway, if you photographed yourself eating the steamer, posted on social media, and tagged them, you were entered to win something. Honestly, I wouldn 't go back, even for free. Don 't #securethebag, and just give a hard pass to #joescrabshack

We went their to have dinner. The food is very delicious and it becomes even better with the river view outside on the terrace. The waitress NUK made it perfect as she was very careful and nice with us and our two sons.
