Shack Bowl was not as described. plain white rice is not seasoned rice. crab meat was non-existant, small amount of corn and Pico, no sour cream and I paid extra for mango salsa - missing. Overall it was bland and certainly not worth the price.
Banky's Cookies had a horrible chemical taste - the cookie looked appealing but due to concern that it was spoiled ? it was thrown away.
Overall very disappointed- we will not be ordering here again.

The Lobster Roll Sandwich had to be the smallest Lobster Roll Sandwich I have ever seen in my life. For $30+I seriously expected much better. Very disappointed and will not recommend this place to anyone. My Crabby Melt Sandwich was not much better, it was all roll and extremely thin for crab balls, supposedly smashed.

my Steamer didn't taste like it had been seasoned and the Crawfish/Shrimp was overcooked. The J.O butter tasted gross but that is personal opinions. the portions were as advertised and the seafood was semifresh. I won't be ordering again because it was too expensive to not be rich enough for my blood

Every was good, a bit pricey, the snow crab legs were sad, tiny, and not worth it, but the shrimp and lobster were great and the crab ball basket was yummy, will order again, the cream of crab was ok, very crabby, but needed more old bay or something, fries were awesome too and the hush pupies were perfect!
