The Crab Shack - Folly Beach

Be sure you ask for Eric! He was so fun and attentive. Made our last night in Folly great.

Food was great except for the awful collard greens. Service was great and atmosphere was very beachfront vibe.

It was busy in a good way. Lots of locals but a different vibe compared to many other places. Food was good to very good.

We ate at the Crab Shack twice during our visit to Folly Beach. The first time was when we first arrived and were waiting for our rental to be ready. It is a dog friendly restaurant, but all the dog friendly tables are high tops which I personally do not like. The first visit I had She Crab soup and my wife and I shared a seafood trio. While the soup was good, it was not what I expected since the crab soup i have had in the north is a tomato based cajun style. The trio was very good. The fish were fresh, cooked properly and had good flavor since it was fresh. Our server was great and very helpful. Our second visit was without the dog so we sat at a regular table. My wife and I shared the largest fish boil which had crab clusters, oysters, shrimp, corn and potatoes. Except for the fact there was only a third of a piece of corn, the portion was satisfactory for the two of us to share. The fish was fresh and well prepared. The sauces on the side were good. The service was attentive. The meal can be a bit messy and maybe a bib should have been provided, but, they did give you wipes and had a roll of paper towel on the table. The Crab Shack was one of the better restaurants we ate at while in Folly Beach and highly recommend you try it.

I had a great chill time and the she crab soup was amazing. Exactly how she crab soup should be. Also the crabby marry was super good. Shrimp- delicious. I’m glad I picked this restaurant for my birthday day. I ate too fast to take pics ?
