Locally owned and operated Angry Crab Shack, a restaurant specializing in seafood boils with Asian-Cajun flavors and signature sauces, is getting ready to debut its first location in Scottsdale, slated to open in the spring. Angry Crab Shack currently operates 14 stores with 12 in Arizona, one in Orange Beach, Alabama, and another in Henderson, Nevada.

“While this year has certainly thrown some challenges our way, Angry Crab Shack has continued to grow and expand in Arizona and across the country,” said Ron Lou, founder of Angry Crab Shack. “We’re eager to open the first Scottsdale location in a bustling area.”

Located at 8909 Talking Stick Way, the newest location will feature the popular restaurant’s signature seafood boils with its interactive, all hands-on deck dining experience where butcher paper covers tables, no plates are used and hands serve as utensils with cutlery available upon request. The menu also includes additional seafood-focused items like oysters prepared three ways, twin lobster rolls, po’ boys, fish and chips, and much more. The family-friendly restaurant will present a similar look and feel to the other Angry Crab Shack locations, incorporating its well-known, vibrant décor elements including live fish tanks, ocean life decorations and wood-boarded walls that guests can sign.

Angry Crab Shack focuses on providing fresh, top quality taste at an affordable price point, sourcing lobster from the East Coast, Dungeness Crab from the Pacific Northwest, King and Snow Crab from Alaska, and crawfish from the Gulf of Mexico.

Open Sunday through Thursday 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. For more information about the popular restaurant and to stay up-to-date on business hours, dine-in service and new locations, visit angrycrabshack.com or follow on Facebook.
