The Crab Shack isn't just a restaurant, it's a destination! We seat more than 700 guests and offer both indoor and outdoor dining options. Both dining rooms and our outdoor dining deck offer picturesque views of Chimney Creek. Both the young and young-at-heart will enjoy our interactive, educational "Gator Lagoon" which is home to 78 baby alligators; our aviary which is home to more than a dozen rescued exotic birds, and our "Gift Shack". The Crab Shack offers traditional Low Country fare, including fresh streamed and boiled seafood and slow-cooked BBQ. We also have a kid's menu available with burgers, hot dogs, and pizza. The Crab Shack is and always has been a family owned business, and recently began shipping our entrees in ready-to-be-cooked kits through LoCo To Go. Stop by and experience all we have to offer for yourself!

The Scene
Located on Chimney Creek, just off the main drag linking Savannah and Tybee Island, the Crab Shack has all the makings of a tourist trap. Fortunately, you won't mind being roped in. Sit on the spacious deck overlooking… Read Full Editorial
Not the best by rdecker46 via Citysearch on 11/1/2011
I didn't enjoy this resturant at all. If you like all your food boiled then you'd probably enjoy it. Everything ordered at our table was tasteless. Very bland. Maybe I just like spicer food.
GREAT AND FAST SERVICE by marisawikstrom via Citysearch on 8/9/2011
If you're looking for fast food and fast service, or your idea of good seafood includes batter and oil, keep looking! If you're looking for good low country boil seafood and a laid back atmosphere, this place is great. Yeah, it looks like…

yeeee!!!! the crab shack! =) by thaohaimes via Citysearch on 8/2/2011
Always love the crab shack. Love the chowder.
Food was good!!! :) by roseannecrayford via Citysearch on 8/1/2011
We ate outside on the deck with views of the water (not ocean). They served the food on styrofoam plates and there were trashcans in the middle of the tables, but food was good. Very good value, especially for seafood. Great place to eat!

Yummy food! =) by Guest 9. via Judy's Book on 7/21/2011
We ate here twice in the week we stayed on Tybee Island. Both times were very good. Me and a friend ordered the Captain Crab's Sampler for three and we substituted sausage in place of the potatoes and corn - we finished it off completly.…

Good food! by maritzastrome via Citysearch on 7/8/2011
This was my husband & I's second trip to Crab Shack. We knew our girls (12,9,4) would get a kick out of feeding the alligators so we took them here the evening we arrived on the island. We got a table outside rather than in the screened in…

We had so much fun at this restaurant!! by barbarlogarbo via Citysearch on 7/6/2011
Its a huge place, you will never wait for a table their seating area seems to go on forever. The food may seem a bit pricey but we managed to spend $30 on 2 people which isn't bad for all the experience. The crab stew is out of this…
