Come here to eat peel and eat seafood by the pound. They've got all types of crab , crawfish and shrimp (pending season). Bibs are provided, but you can byo gloves.

Anna Quinto

I love this place but they need to add more flavours to their menu.. Like buttered shrimp or crab .. They also need to add more sink so we can wash our hands...

Brian Ibarra

You will not regret coming here! Go mild cuz that's spicy enough don't go all brave it's real strong stuff but the crab is so addicting with corn Cobb also

Nikki

Get your hands dirty with an order of the lemon pepper shrimp or crawfish ; the lemon pepper sauce has just the right hint of garlic .

Julie Chan

Reasonable then most cajun restaurants , too busy and the lines are generally 20-60min wait, but worth it !! Not wheelchair friendly , but will accomodate :0/

Chris Mateo

If you like the seasonings, but want it tamed, ask for a salt and pepper cup and some limes . Squeeze the lime juice into the cup and use it with your sauced shrimp , crab , etc.

If you like to get your hands dirty and dig in to some flavorful crab ... you will love the Boiling Crab! You order by the pound and your food is served in a plastic bag.

Rowena D.

Love the Whole Sha-Bang seasoning.. crawfiah are pretty small right now.. once the season picks up they'll be bigger

Frostgreen Greenee

Kat Vu

If you have left over lime , rub them on your hands and fingers to get rid of the strong shellfish smell

Alfonse Surigao

2lb of shrimp and the whole she-bang medium is so damn good!

Chris Mateo

Don't over-think the seasoning, get The Whole Sha-Bang! And the servers are awesome (especially Evelyn).

Michelle Luong

Must try the corn ! It's the best

Nikki

If you don't like too much of a garlic flavor, try the lemon pepper sauce instead.

Sasha Lynch

Medium everything, can't go wrong

Kimberly Threadgill

Have to have the corn and sausage !

Robert Mostacho

If your new here, know what you want before ordering. Waiters are kind of impatient

Michelle Yoon

Vegetarians sit out on this restaurant ...they don't have any option for you! I couldn't eat anything, I shouldn't have assumed they would have a vegetarian option .

Kimberly Threadgill

Snow crab legs mild!

Dianna Martini

Careful with "the whole sha bang xxx" its pretty hot!!! And I'm Mexican!

Jessica Young

Horrible, but I'm from Louisiana where they boil crawfish , potatoes and sausage the "southern" way so I'm extremely bias. Will never to again

Riza Gonzales

Don't come with your own water bottle ):

Johnny Wong

Wear cloths that you don't plan on wearing for weeks.

Roy Mena

Great Service and Food!

CJ

Bring your own sharpie to leave your mark on the walls.

Angel Cleveland

Bring a sharpie ????

Chris Mateo

If you order the raw oysters , check with the server to see if they have large oysters available; it shouldn't cost too much (if nothing) more.

Fanny Mui

Awww they don't open til 3pm M-F

Deanna Riskey

Gotta get the whole sha-bang

Sheila K.

Beware! The medium here was MUCH spicer than San Jose . It was a very unpleasant surprise.

Matt Choa

Bring a Sharpie .

Fanny Mui

They put the bib on for me. Haha
