Always a treat from the valet guys to Josh, Carlos or Mauricio at the oyster bar! Always great!

Shaw's Crab House in Chicago offers a variety of seafood options, from oysters to lobster rolls. While some experienced slow service and disappointing dishes, others enjoyed fabulous food and excellent service. The restaurant's extensive dessert menu and classic Chicago vibe make it a must-try for seafood lovers. With a warm and engaging staff, Shaw's Crab House is a great choice for a dining experience before hitting up a show at Andy's Jazz Club. Despite some hiccups, the restaurant provides a solid seafood dining option in the city.
