"Two Fish has accrued a loyal following in Bronzeville where it delivers its own spin on bagged seafood. There are no plates or utensils offered, so don a bib and prepare to get messy by digging into lobster, crab, shrimp, crawfish and mussels coated with jerk, lemon pepper or garlic butter sauces. The BYOB spot also serves fried bites including oysters and catfish." - Sam Nelson

"Any meal involving bibs and tabletop garbage cans is a good one, but it’s especially great at Two Fish Crab Shack. This Cajun seafood boil spot offers “curated” combo bags, or you can build your own with things like lobster tails, crawfish, and mussels. All the seafood is fresh and cooked perfectly, so trust your instincts—especially if your instincts are telling you to choose the “3 The Chi-Way” sauce (a combination of cajun, garlic butter, and lemon pepper flavors) plus add-ons like a potato and corn. There are plenty of fried options too, in basket and sandwich form." - veda kilaru
"No plates. No utensils. Just a bib and a bag. That’s all you need at Two Fish, a spot where you can enjoy a serious seafood boil surrounded by family and friends. To build your bag, start with your seafood of choice — from King crab legs to lobster — then your flavor, like jerk or Cajun. Finally, pick your heat level. Your bag will arrive filled to the brim with spiced seafood, corn, potatoes, and more, ready for you to dig in." - Ariel Kanter
"Two Fish Crab Shack is a perfect place to eat all the shellfish you couldn’t figure out how to shuck at home. This Cajun seafood boil spot offers “curated” combo bags, or you can build your own with things like lobster tails, crawfish, and mussels. All the seafood is fresh and cooked perfectly, so trust your instincts—especially if your instincts are telling you to choose the “3 The Chi-Way” sauce (a combination of cajun, garlic butter, and lemon pepper flavors) plus add-ons like a potato and corn. There are plenty of fried options too, in basket and sandwich form. Tables start filling up soon after they open, so get there early to avoid the embarrassment of learning how to use a crab fork in front of a full dining room." - Veda Kilaru
