We Plan. You Party. It's Simple.
At Shaw's we don't save the "sparkle" just for the holiday parties. If you're hosting a rehearsal dinner or send-off brunch, an engagement party or a fantastic wedding reception, a special anniversary or a surprise birthday party, or even a Chairman-of-the-Board style power lunch, Shaw's Crab House offers the perfect setting and impeccable service to make your occasion exceptional. We love to get "creative".
Elegant Menu Choices
Shaw's party menus range from casual buffets to formal affairs featuring Shrimp, Lobster, Seasonal Crab dishes, Maryland-style Crab Cakes, Sushi and regional Oysters on the half shell. Your special memories of intimate get-togethers or gala gatherings are made easy when you celebrate them at Shaw's Crab House.
Shaw's Award Winning Wine List
Shaw's extensive selection of wines has received the Wine Spectator Award of Excellence. Our knowledgeable sommelier Steve Tindle has thoroughly researched many of the wine growing regions of the country and abroad. Shaw's goal was to fill its wine cellars with exceptionally well suited varietals to pair with our seafood and prime steak specialties. You may inquire about further selections not mentioned in our "cellar list" 2 weeks prior to your event by simply calling Steve Tindle for details at 312-527-2722 (ext.37).
