Shaking Crab

Cajun seafood boil restaurant with customizable spice levels, shrimp, crab, lobster, and corn cooked in a bag with your choice of signature sauce.

Shaking Crab on Southgate Avenue in Daly City makes seafood a hands-on meal to share. Shrimp, crawfish, clams, mussels, and crab provide the building blocks for Cajun-style seafood orders, with customizable spice levels helping diners find their preferred heat. We like the combination options that bring several shellfish choices together with corn, potatoes, and sausage. Garlic noodles, Cajun fries, and garlic bread offer useful accompaniments to the main seafood order. Fried baskets with fish, shrimp, oysters, or calamari provide a different texture, while grilled fish and short ribs broaden the selection. The appeal is a casual seafood gathering where the table can mix a larger boil with smaller sides and fried dishes, giving everyone something to pick from.
