I have been to a Joe's Crab Shack in New Jersey, but the experience we had at the Henderson location was very surprising.\n\nFor one thing, I don't recall ever seeing the staff dancing at a Joe's. I have seen it at Johnny Rockets locations where the staff half-heartedly does performances every so often. There is a clear difference between what I have seen there and the staff at this location; the staff members here actually seem like they are enjoying themselves. If they really aren't, then they are adept at making it seem that they are. Even the \"Happy Birthday\" routines were different from table to table. For such things that the staff is required to do regularly, I could see how difficult it is for them to be \"convincing.\" I give them quite a bit of credit for that accomplishment.\n\nFood and service were top notch here. I would consider returning to this location in future trips to Vegas as an \"honorary local.\"
