  I LOVE this place. I used to live in Tampa and would go regularly. Now, I go every time I'm in Tampa. The sauce just can't be beat. I eat blue crabs everywhere, at least I try to. Outside of my friends special sauce TN got it right!!
  
  It's literally a stand-alone place on the corner of the street. Nothing fancy about it so don't expect to get anything but fresh/great food. The young girl on the phone and window could be a little more pleasant but, I mean, no one is going there for anything more than the food.

  Wanting to find some yummy, cheap seafood, we came across this restaurant in Tampa. No frills, no seats, and no real customer service. However, the food is above average. We ordered the medium crab plate. It came with a choice of two sides. The fried blue crab was oh so good, tasty and flavorful.  I chose corn on the cob and slaw as my sides. Not bad, nothing special. As a connoisseur of coleslaw, I found the salad a bit too creamy and lacking celery seed.  My sister ordered a side of garlic shrimp. These medium crustaceans had good flavor and not over cooked. The fish, fried grouper was amazing, (I tasted it.). While the hush puppies were over cooked, I came to the conclusion that this 'shack' focuses more on their main entrees than the accompanying sides. Their prices still make it a worthwhile investment and I recommend you try a meal.

  Ya know...its a seafood shack on the side of the road. No seating, cheap prices and a great selection. You have to know what to expect when visiting an establishment like this. Know what you want, order, get out of the way so someone else can order, then wait for your number to be called and go enjoy.
  
  My husband and I took our food to a nearby park and enjoyed a pleorotha of seafood for around $30. Soft shell crab seasoned heavily (awesome), fried gizzards, garlic butter steamed crab legs, hushpuppies and some darn good lemonade!
  
  I will absolutely revist when I have a craving for seafood that won't break the bank.

  Stopped here while in Tampa and I wish I could take them back to Atlanta. The snow crabs where so very delicious I didn't want to share. I was a bit sad since they were out of blue crabs. It's a local spot for sure with no seating. You place your order at a window and your food is quickly prepared. It was definitely worth every penny and I can't wait to return.

  This crab shack has been there for long time. I like the seasoning that put on the crab. They serve live blue crab cook in the spot. Since cook it from live, the crab is fresh. I got 6 large crabs under $17. A lot of meat. Unfortunately one of the crab missing the crawl. If not because of that, I may have give them 5 stars for crab along.
  
  This shack really doesn't have a good place to sit and eat. Basically is a take out place. The day I have visited, they have 10 blue crab crawl for $3. They can cook crab by fried or steam garlic. The price varies due to the size of your choice.
  
  They serve other seafood which I may not able to said anything about it since I only like their blue crab. They have oyster, shrimp, clam strip, crab cake, devil crab, wings, snow crab, fish, gumbo, corn dog. Any how. Go for the blue crab.
