- ABAnusha Bhargava3 days ago5.0We went during the off-peak season, but the vibes were on point even then. Amazing customer experience, food was tasty and came quick. I don’t eat seafood and was worried the place would smell, but it was nice inside. Our server Kevin was friendly. Highly recommend, this was our favorite place in Daytona so far!
- RARachel AyalaNov 16, 20255.0Decided to stop and have dinner here. Kevin was a server and from the moment he came up, we knew we were going to have great service. His energy was amazing and having a server like him truly makes all the difference for having a great night. Our meals were 10/10. It’s always a hit or miss with seafood in the area but Joes Crab Shack didn’t miss a beat tonight. The amount of seafood on our orders compared to the additional sides on all our plates were well portioned out. We sat outside but even when entering to use the restroom, any staff we crossed paths with were friendly and polite. Definitely coming back so I highly recommend you stop in and ask to sit in Kevin’s section for a great time!

- GOGuillermo ojitoNov 13, 20255.0Sam provided absolutely outstanding service from start to finish. She was professional, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making sure everything went smoothly. Her attention to detail, kindness, and willingness to go above and beyond truly set her apart. It’s rare to find someone who cares as much as she does, and it made a huge difference in my experience. Thank you, Sam, for your exceptional service. Highly recommended!
- AGAllison GraceNov 12, 20255.0I’m visiting from Canada, and this was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. I ordered the crab dinner, and it was absolutely incredible- the best crab I’ve ever had! The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The service was just as impressive. Our server was so informative and patient, taking the time to explain everything and make sure we had a great meal. You can really tell they care about their guests here. This was truly one of the highlights of my trip. Highly recommend Joe’s Crab Shack to anyone looking for delicious seafood and top-notch service! 🦀
