This place had all the look and feel of a classy 40's restaurant and clam bar. This place is a worth a visit for the ambiance alone. The excellent seafood is the icing on the cake. more

July 25, 2009 My wife and I dined at Shaw’s Crab House last night, and it was fantastic. We have eaten out at a lot of seafood restaurants, and we can honestly say that Shaw’s still has it going on, and is top of our list for consistent, quality seafood and shellfish. The food is always prepared right, with great... more

Maybe the other options like the crab legs were better, but I got the swordfish and it wasnt' all that great compared to other restaurants. It was a run of the mill cut that I could have bought at the grocery store. I'm thinking those people who are raving about Shaws have never tried Bob Chins. more

Went to Shaw's because it was close to our hotel and was very surprised to find the best seafood ever there, especially in Chicago. We had the blue crab dip for the app. and it was one of the best things I've ever eaten in my entire life! My husband had the blue cheese encrusted fillet mignon, which was so... more

We recently celebrated our 1st anniversary with dinner at Shaw's. Our reservation was for 7:30 but we weren't seated until almost 8.

My party had reservations for 8 but were not seated until 8:45! But after a word witht he waiter, he comped us our appetizer. I ordered the famous Alaskan crab legs---they were the best I ever had. The place has an old city retro feel and very comfortable. more

On our trip to Chicago my wife wanted to go out for seafood and Shaw's was recommended by the hotel concierge. It was wonderful. We decided to go for the Lobster dinner each. She had the seafood chowder, I the crab bisque. All was wonderful. The key lime pie, large and very tangy. Very nice looking restaurant with lots of... more

I had a combo platter that seemed to be way over priced...$49.95 for large crab cake, grilled shrimp, scallops and some rice. Could get same at Red Lobster for about half the price. My friend had King Crab Legs. She said they were the best she's ever eaten, and she gets out often. more

We have been to Shaw's many times. We have never had a bad experience. Whether for a nice romantic dinner, or a drink and quick bite to eat they always deliver. We are all huge seafood lovers and theirs is always fresh and well prepared. You just cannot go wrong here! more
