The Story Of LA Crab Shack

Bringing the bold flavors of the Gulf Coast straight to the heart of Arizona.

In 2013 founder Alan Nguyen knew that the secret sauce to a successful Seafood Restaurant was just that, fresh seafood and proprietary sauces made fresh daily.

The LA Crab Shack was formed with the vision of making operations focused and simple. Without knowing what to expect, we knew that we had something special shortly after opening. After refining the concept, the first LA Crab Shack location was licensed and sold. We now have a brand that people know and love and we are excited to bring our Seafood and our sauces to as many people as possible.

Crafting Arizona’s Favorite Seafood Boils

Our story started with a love for bold coastal flavors and great company. Every dish at LA Crab Shack features high-quality seafood tossed in our signature sauce blends, delivering an unforgettable, hands-on dining experience at an honest price.

Proudly Serving Our Arizona Neighbors

We believe great food brings people together. From family reunions to weekend hangouts, LA Crab Shack is proud to be a local staple in Mesa, Peoria, and Ahwatukee, dedicated to supporting our community one feast at a time.
