Grab a bib and get to crackin’ at Joe’s Crab Shack, a seafood-focused restaurant with two Valley locations. The menu includes salads, burgers, sandwiches, steaks, chicken and pasta, but, of course, the crab is where it’s at. Choose from varieties such as blue, Dungeness, stone, soft-shell or Alaska king crabs, and get ready to get messy.
