Wifey's birthday dinner at Joes Crab Shack Dubai Mall. We had an amazing dinner and our waitress Rosy looked after us. I strongly recommend this place to everyone looking for good seafood and excellent staff.
The food is fine, served hot. It taste fresh from the sea . The shrimps where fresh and Juicy, the clams and clam meat are fresh and has its thud as you take a bit into it. The ambiance also reminds me of my childhood place where I see fresh fishes and sea stuffs. They had the advantage of being in front of the huge Dubai Mall Aquarium.
Over all, I love to come back and dine at the restaurant . Im sure my friends would love to be here I assume . 😇
Wow, food was absolutely amazing! Not sure which one was better, the food or the service! Thank you Beshoy!
Great food. Great service. The crab was succulent, and the portions were fantastic. Will have enough for tomorrow’s lunch as well. And, Beshoy was a fantastic server !!!
Really nice staff specially ( JB & Mark )great people...
Amazing food, more amazing service by Beshoy. Helped with cutting the crab, and made it very easy for us to eat. Thank you. Highly recommend it!
We just had a dining here lately and it was really great. The meal we had (snow crab, ragin cajun) were really delicious as usual. We give 5 star for this experience because of the staff named Beshoy as he delivers a great dining service to us.. we’ll definitely eat here again soon.
Beshoy is an amazing staff. We really had a great time eating. He Helped us open our crabs to the point that he did everything for us 😊. I hope Joe’s crab shack will hire more staff like him.
Found this amazing place for seafood.. Such a lovely and friendly staff. Loved their service. Crabs and lobster were great!
Very delicious food, big big big portions
Ultimately helpful staff, loved the service and always ask for Deepu he was the most helpful and generous service provide
Highly recommended place
Visited the restaurant yesterday for dinner. The restaurant had a few tables occupied. As part of the restrictions in place, every alternate table is closed off. Roslyn did a good an excellent job looking after us. The food was fresh and tasted amazing. Will definitely be going back.
@jcsuae amazing seafood place in dubai mall. They have vast variety of food and everything I have tried was amazingly delicious
Beshoy was really friendly and helpful in telling us which dishes are the best for us. The food and the environment was very nice and clean as well.
Good ambience, peaceful and hygienic. Tried shimps trio, onion rings and fish & chips... Had a good time with friends...
Tasty crabs!!!! Eaten here a while back just posting the pictures now.
The crabs are huge and juicy served in a broth along with corn. We also ordered mixed platter which was served along with fries.
Came here for the first time and was greeted by Beshoy. We asked him to recommend some dishes, and he suggested the crab bucket and the Maine grill. WE WERE AMAZED. The food here is unbelievable, we finished every single piece, made sure nothing was left.
The food here is great but Beshoy made sure to tell us the best sauces and dishes. Ask for him when you come here ! VISIT THIS PLACE!
This is without a doubt! my best place if I want to enjoy Crab! it's an amazing experience! with amazing service! I just wish they open a branch at the marina side or JBR! they will make a fortune as there is nothing like it that area!
The food is amazing... Roselyn made it all worth it! 🙏🏻
We had ordered seafood buckets which in the menu says it’s good for one trust me and my husband had our heart our heart out we didn’t had to anything extra ..... and little pricy but the you won’t regret it
Best crab haunt in Dubai... Long time favourite and the seating by the Aquarium just puts the icing on the crab so to speak.
Service is usually excellent, and very friendly. They will even crack open your crabs for you if you ask nicely.
Top tip: take the crab shears home 😉
wonderful experience and food
An amazing and fulfilling meal. To begin with we were guided well by Mr Youssef who took our order. He gave us a perfect idea on what to chose when at Joe's crab shack in case you are new here. The seafood was well cooked, had the perfect combination of everything in a tasty gravy. We were also helped on how to crack the shell and appropriate tools were provided as well for use and a bucket to dispose the waste shells. Ambience is also good. But to rate the food and service, I just have to say it was amazing.
Thank you Joe's crab shack. Looking forward to come again.
What an amazing experience, our first time was worth it and we will be back again soon! Joy was a pure joy.. ask for her she is the master crab cracker..
Loved it. Excellent service...out waitress Joy was amazing. Yummy alaskan king and queen crab (prefer the king), crab cake and creamy garlic mussels. Lobster good, but not wow.
Definitely going back
The food is beyond our expectation. We really like it even the service is fantastic thank you for rhenzel and crizel for the experience. We will surely comeback.
The restaurant is amazing starting from the extremely friendly welcoming staff to the food and the full explanation for all the food on the menu and what to recommend !
We ordered two steam pots, mixed fried seafood and chicken plate as we have a non seafood eater on the table.
The portions are big and the flavors are beyond amazing ... would definitely be coming again.
Still has the same taste and quality since the first time I tried it many years ago - many fail at this!
Make sure to try their #crabpots that come in various combinations - cajun is my favorite!
Also recommended is the superb #lobsterroll while the kids can enjoy #chickentenders if they don’t fancy seafood - they will surely enjoy the view of the fishes swimming just across in the #dubaiaquarium .
It's not our first time to dine in Joe's crab shack but we enjoyed the first time we visited the Dubai mall branch just recently. It was already late night and had cravings for some comfort food. Why not in Joe's, right? Started off with their Crab Nachos - it was AMAZING! Followed by their Joe's Classic Steampot and a Reel big catch platter and Man, it was such a pleasure to get that crabs cracking. It was suggested by our server Rhenz to have them in Cajun sauce and it was awesome. As typical asians, we tend to look for a special sauce on the side and tried to ask him for a vinegar at least. Rhenz went extra mile by making a what we call "Special sauce." He surprised us and I have nothing but wow. For that, i'd like to commend him and other crews were very nice. You gotta try the branch in Dubai mall as you will dine watching the Dubai Aquarium. Great job, guys! We'll definitely come back.
Nicely located next to the Dubai mall aquarium
Food was good specially the twin lobster tail definitely a winner! The staff is quite friendly too!
We were reallyyy hungry and in total action mode after watching Avengers Endgame 🙅🏻♀️. Hence we decided to have some encounter with the crabs. Conveniently located behind The Aquarium it is the best place for a crab lover 🦀.
We ordered Crab Stuffed Mushroom and Mini Crab Sliders along with iced tea. The mushrooms were accompanied with garlic breadsticks. The bread was crispy and yum. The meat inside the mushroom was so soft and buttery as you eat it just melts. It was heavenly with loaded cheese and sauce. The sliders were to die for. The crab meat was simply good and flavorful. The crispy fries and the dip was a perfect combo. As always coffee is a must for me to finish off any meal. The staff was really helpful and attentive. It’s a pure bliss to enjoy your food with the sight of different species in The Aquarium. Highly recommend 🤘🏻👌🏻 #dubaimall #crablover #dubaifood #foodie

Went there and it was a perfect place to dine with your friends. The place was not crowded. You can literally have a conversation while enjoying the meal. Superb!
Osama was the one who served us! Keep up!
Today I tried JO’s CRAB in dubai mall , I ordered the mix lobster shrimp and crab, it was good some how didn’t feel the freshness and I wanted to see more sauce , but in general everything were perfectly cocked with acceptable sea food taste.
Visited this place for lunch and fell in love with it. The taste of the crabs was great and so was the service. Our server Joy, was so helpful and attentive. Surely going back.
This place was simply awesome!!! I keep on coming back. Food was so delicious and the ambiance of the place was cozy and staffs were friendly!

Everything we ordered was delicious. The lobster was juicy and tender. We enjoyed the queen crab with the tasty sauce. The service was also good.
This is my first time to come to dubai and i choose joes, crab, shack to have dinner in my first day here, the place is amazing the best seafood i have ever ate in my life the cajun pot what sooooooo delicious and the corn was soooo juicy really really loved it and the personal is soo polite
, quick and helpful and always smiling ❤️🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀🦀👌👌👌👍👍👍
Highly recommended! Nick and the team did a great job, service was quick and excellent. Food was amazing, the salmon was delicious. A bit off the beaten path, behind the Aquarium, but well, well worth it!
Been the one in Dubai mall ... which is behind the aquarium.. very friendly staff .. showed us how to use the tools...ordered the bucket of crabs the snow crabs ..yummy . cooked to perfection and a must try it in this desert land ..
5/5 ambience - you also have a view of the aquarium in dubai mall
4/5 staff
5/5 food 👌 superb! Lobster is juicy and so is the steak. Current fave lobster resto
Beyond doubt one of the best seafood joints in the UAE.. for a journalist who is also a foodie to enjoy the food this much is a rarity.. This was my second time here and the consistency of the om nom noms was surprisingly refreshing.. highly suggest the crawfish platter (ask for it extra extra spicy)... the Fettucini pasta in Arabiata sauce was great too!! Lovely ambience .., and if you get Nick to serve you - it's truly an experience from the sea!! Absolutely glorious time.. Invited people with me the second time; having them enjoy the food as much as me was simply heavenly.. I really hope the people and the food remain this good the next time I come here!!
Went to this place one afternoon for lunch. The place is nicely decorated with the crab and marine theme, also the dubai mall aquarium is facing the restaurant. Staff are all very friendly and professional. We ordered Joe’s chopped salad, it was a good choice as a starter. We also ordered the Jumdo Bairdi crab bucket and the rajin cajun steampot. Both tasted really good, I personally love the rajin cajun for its sauce, but be prepared for a mess (breaking the crabs and eating with your hands). Prices are a bit high, but they have the entertainer which you can get the buy one get one main course offer.
Absolutely yummy restaurant in Dubai mall which got awesome view of the Aquarium. As the names says it’s famous for crab 🦀. Tried few fish dishes and crab rice, will be trying out soon the other dishes too. It wasn’t crowd during lunch since it was a weekday, they put some nice music to in the background. Very nice experience it was😊.
It's our first time to dine in this place and I'm glad we found it. We were supposed to go to Chili's coz my little one loves their kids meal - mac and cheese, corn on the cob and the chocolate shake, then we saw Joe's crab next to it and we wamted to give it a try.The staffs of Joe's crab are very gracious that they allow us to take the kids meal from Chili's while we dine in on their shop. Since it's our first time here, I didn't know what to order and the lady who assisted us, her name is Dressia, had done a great job in explaining my choices! You can easily get lost in their menu with those nice seafood photos! She is very friendly, knowledgeable and had done an extra mile when she gave us an off-the-menu vinegar sauce (coz we Filipinos love our crabs with vinegar!) We ordered the Reel big catch and the Joe's classic steam pot (changed to Cajun sauce)...

Lets start off by saying i went there twice in one week because of how good it was!
Food- i ordered the east coast platter as a starter which was fried goodness and huge in quantity!
Joes classic steampot and the raging cajun crab steampot both fresh and delicious! Great quantity and you just cant get enough of it! Comes with sweet corn and shrimps, yum!
Service- the waiters were so friendly, the manager came to check in on us each time and food did not take long to be served!
Overall i have to say if you love fresh crabs and seafood, then i highly recommend eating here!
I have not personally tried the Dubai Festival City branch, but i heard its good.
The value of food is good and on top of that you can use entertainer vouchers in the store!
Amazing place for Crab !!! I am not a crab lover but this place changed my perspective towards 'crab meat'. When my cousin suggested this place I was not sure if I would like the crab meat. But to my surprise I was eating more :) All the dishes we ordered were yumm... Crab is really juicy and soft.
Amazing experience. First time visiting and first time eating crab. Yummy. At first i didn’t know how yo operate the instruments but Arbie offered to help, and also entertained my little one which was excited to have some crab too. The cajun crab was really tasty , but what gives this place 5 stars is the awesome staff. Thank you for the great lunch
My experience is awesome. I love the Cajun Crab and Shrimp! I love that potatoes and corns are well-cooked. So tasty and have an Umami Taste!! Drinks are also refreshing.
Friendly staff. Fast service. Cozy place.
My kids are in Dubai for summer vacation and I wanted to make their dinner experience as special as possible. I’m glad I took them to Joe’s Crab. The location is perfect with a good view of the Aquarium. Our food handler, his name is Nick, is very helpful. He offered some recommendations and is very attentive. He taught us the technique on how to properly use the utensil to get all the crab meat inside. The experience is so satisfying.
Be sure to order the Jumbo Bairdi and try the Snow Crab. Plus, this resto is in The Entertainer too! What could be better than that?
Great Experience.Having tried the ribeye steak and it's very tender and delicious and comes with corn and mash potato.The service was excellent too.Definitely we will b back here soon.
Just finished a great meal at Joe’s Crab Shack in Dubai Mall. We just love the place and the food is brilliant, especially the Queen Crab and Cajun Crab. Alberto helped make this meal more fun for us. He cleaned the full crab and let us enjoy the food. Thanks Alberto...definitely coming back and asking for you 😀
Looked up places to have good crab in dubai and came across joe's crab shack. Was convenient to visit this as it was in dubai mall. Got the ragin cajun bucket which came with shrimp and crab both. Crab was full and juicy..even the legs had a good amount of meat. The shrimp was fresh and juicy too. Would like to visit again when in dubai.
Arbie was a great server..he made his special sauce for us to have with our ragin cajun...friendly,polite...good food ,good customer service
its my first time here in joes and food is perfect,we will surely comeback with my family, manager crizel is very accomodating and the one serving the table gerry gve us fantastic service. thanks so much

Just tried for the first time with the family. They have awesome food with big portions. Service is great too! We used the Entertainer App to get buy 1 get 1 free on main course so it was so worth it 😁👍🏼
The restaurant is very wonderful, the food is delicious, the service is fantastic, the reception is excellent, especially Osama, Mark and the restaurant manager Amr
Best seafood if you have an entertainer app, also the staff is so great and they will assist you in every way! Special thanks to Nick who serves us with smile and good service. He even make a special vinegar sauce for us! All the best

Love it super super great food..for sure will comeback again..and i highly recommended for all crab lovers..ambiance is so nice. And have friendly staff.
I had been craving crabs for weeks and my first choice was to try out Joe's crab shack. I had a queen crab seasoned with garlic and herbs. It was delicious.
I enjoy a good meal and the meal was undoubtedly good. But it wasn't the highlight of the place. But rather the service by a man named Mark. Absolutely delightful and went above and beyond in making our meal enjoyable.
He should be running the place to ensure it maintains such a vibrant and positive attitude at all times and I guarantee the place success.
Thank you Mark and thanks Joe's Crab Shack for having someobe like him to keep the customer happy.
I would recommend this restaurant. The service was very good. and Mark our waiter is very polite, personable and very efficient. Our food was very good, price was fair. over all satisfied with the service.I recommend it.
Great Food😊 super tasty! I recommend if you have dinner with your family, Try Joe’s Crab. And the service Especially to Nick👍🏻😊 , thanks for assisting us👍🏻 keep it up!
All staff are friendly and very good assisting customers😊.
All personnel were very well trained, accommodating and helpful (all done with a smile, esp. staff named RB). Everything was handled with efficiency and attention to every detail was given. Food was delicious and the ambiance gives you a relaxing feeling of beach themed resto. Thanks for such an outstanding job to make the stay so pleasurable.. dirty crab rice and steak (yum yum)
Amazing place, amazing food, but much more important for me, amazing staff !!! Mr. Ramiro was excellent, friendly and a proper seafood adviser 👍🏻 Definitely will come back and advise this place to all seafood lovers. Thank you Joe’s Crab, Thank You Mr. Ramiro

Cozy ambiance, delicious food and lastly hospitable staff especially to our food server Nick who make our stay more enjoyable,,,,,,, 😊 we will surely come back
Great experience to try. Food was good. But I would say it was the experience which made it fun. Our server Alberto did a great job in making sure we are having a good time. Kudos to him!
Best sea food restaurant ever!! And lyn is an amazing server :) she was very helpful and sweet . Their crabs are amazing and their seafood soap is yummmyy
Been there a week ago. Crab,steaks and other seafoods? Hell yeah! Craving satisfied..
But what impressed me the most? Is him “RB” the awesome server who was very attentive to us,. What an excellent service we had from him. Will surely come back there, and recommend to our officemates and friends.
joe's crab shack has the accomodating crew (RB). they will greet you with a smile and eagerness to serve. food has excellent taste and the price is just right. the ambiance of the place is relaxing and makes you feel at home. thanks to RB
keep it up...
Well, kudos for this Joe's crab shack! Especially RB the one who assisted us and who recommended all our foods, it's superb! I loved their east coast platter and thanks to RB who suggested this! And since I am a salad lover i was amazed with joe's chopped salad and my friends was sufficed with everything. I recommend you guys to come and try it!
So it was our first experience and RB was there to make it amazing. He guided us through the whole menu and went as far as helping my wife open the lobster up. Very nice place, affordable for what you get in return. Would totally recommend but not without RB.( the server)
Amazing experience! The food is so delicious! We really enjoyed eating crabs, mussels, shrimps etc. Thank you! especially to LYN who teach us to how to eat and be nicely to the crabs!🤣😂hahahah two thumbs up for that!. For sure we will recommend this to our friends.

We visited Joe’s Crab Shack 2 weeks after I gave birth to my first baby. My husband saw my pain coz I had C-Section. But, surprise! Surprise! This is his treat to me for giving him a beautiful angel 😍😍😍
We both love seafood. Especially crab. We are mad about crab. This is our addiction. And I can say, this is the most amazing experience for me eating such a huge crab in my life.
I recommend this to all (opps not to those who is having an allergy) 😊 but if you want, why not?!
I want to visit this place again.
Yummy food. Happy me.
Hope next time will have dinner for free.
😂😂😂 Just kidding.
Excellent service!
Food is above average. Definitely a group dining place.
The queen crab is really sumptuous.
A definite must-try.
Ambiance is perfect!
We ordered a Glazed Shrimp and Salmon, which was huge in portion, fresh, and properly made! However, our crab nachos was really a disappointment.
We enjoy the food and we loved the service
King crab must be tried , the atmosphere is friendly music and environment is sample and neat
Dubai aquarium view is a bonus
