Savannah Seafood Shack

While this casual seafood joint consistently draws crowds and maintains strong Yelp ratings, our experience suggests it may lean more toward tourist convenience than culinary excellence. If you're craving a quick, messy seafood fix in a no-frills setting, it satisfies—but temper your expectations for remarkable flavor. 🧾 Our Experience Breakdown The Good: ✅ Casual, quick-service setup ideal for hungry tourists ✅ Generous portions – you won’t leave hungry ✅ Laid-back, coastal-shack vibe The Not-So-Good: ❌ Cajun sauce lacked depth and complexity – tasted one-dimensional ❌ Some seafood (especially shrimp) was slightly overcooked ❌ More butter than spice, missing that authentic Cajun kick 🦞 What We Tried Cajun Shrimp & Crawfish Boil – Good portion, but sauce fell flat Snow Crab Cluster – Fresh but underseasoned Fried Oysters – Crispy coating but oysters were a bit dry Hush Puppies – Golden and tasty – the real standout 💡 If You Go Anyway… Go for lunch to avoid dinner crowds Ask for extra seasoning or spice if you like bold flavors The fried items are safer bets than the boils Great for a casual group meal when everyone just wants to dig in with their hands 📍 The Location Savannah Seafood Shack – multiple locations in the historic district Sometimes popular spots thrive on location and concept more than exceptional cooking. This might be one of them – decent for a quick seafood craving, but not a destination for memorable Lowcountry flavor. 🦀🤷‍♀️ #SavannahSeafood #HonestReview #SeafoodBoil #TouristSpot #CasualEats
