What People Are Saying About Joe's Crab Shack - Destin
Featured Review

In Short – Admittedly kitschy, unavoidably noisy, this Red Lobster for rug rats is like an oversized seaside shanty awash in oceanic memorabilia--fishing nets, souvenir trinkets, plastic flotsam and jetsam. Staffed with a lively crew of G-rated table-dancing servers, the family-friendly chain anchors its menu in all things crab: Crab balls, crab cakes, crab dip, crab gumbo. Finicky children opt for corndogs or hamburgers; shellfish-phobic adults dine on rib eye steak or mesquite-grilled chicken.
Editor's Tips
- Save Money:
- Discounted menus are offered for seniors, students and large groups.
- Know Before You Go:
- You may want to bring some extra cash to buy a tie-dyed T-shirt or an irreverent pair of boxer shorts from the gift shop.
Fun @ Joe's

drinks are weak but the food is good eats.
Bad Experience
by roxy12
I did not have a good experience at Joe’s Crab Shack. The service was slow and there was only 3 other tables in the restaurant so there should have been no excuse for the horrible service. We had a party of 15 all of our dream were empty I had to get up and ask five servers sitting in a booth to get us refills on our drinks and they were very rude!!!! Food was Not Good. I also live in Destin and I work at a local restaurant in Destin as a server I would not recommend this place to anyone!!!!!
Fun place, really surprised me
by jgkavanaugh
Food was great, we had a short wait to be seated. There was a good deal to choose from on the menu and the ambience was wonderful. The staff was extremely friendly and it was great watching them all stop to dance along with YMCA by the Village People. My wife and I would reccomend eating here to anyone that likes seafood and wants a good time.
- Pros: FUN, tasty, did I mention FUN
- Cons: a little goofy for some
