OMG! I'm so addicted to this place. Every weekend I'm there most of the time I do get it to go because the lines are long but it's well worth the wait. Shrimp crab legs potatoes whole shabang medium!

~ Definity get there early! They open at noon on the weekends & we got there at 11:30m & there was already a line - But once we got a table - The service & food were Great & So Yummy!!! It's the Best!

Get the crawfish if it's in season, and don't miss the king crab legs ; add sausage , potatoes & corn & pick your choice of seasoning & spice level ("The Whole Shabang ," medium). [Eater 38 Member] Read more

The fried shrimp and lemon pepper fries were scary good. I love shrimp but the fries were so good I couldn't stop eating them to go to the shrimp . I then tried the shrimp and was blown away.

This place is the Bomb.com - plain and simple. I had the shrimp with The Whole Shebang seasoning and I am addicted!!! Awesomeness!!!!! We tore it up!

Monira Almansour

Be early 30 min befor opening so you can get in with out waiting for additional40 min or more ! Love the shrimp basket and the cajuin fries rock!

Baochau Tran

BEST seafood in town ! Snow crablegs, shrimp and only crawfish (during season) the whole sabang is to die for!

Anna Aguilar

Personally, i don’t usually like seafood . However, the snow crab with the “whole-shabang” is arguably the BEST and ONLY seafood i’ve ever LOVED.Food usually comes out within 10 minutes of ordering too

Becky Nall

I live in Mobile, AL. I grew up in Waco, so, I know that CenTexans think catfish is seafood ! But, I have been amazed at the quality and freshness at The Boiling Crab. I can get a taste of home here!

don't want to smell like garlic for the next two days get crawfish & crab legs lemon pepper & cajun XXX & 1/2 lb sausage lemon pepper & cajun mild it's hot spicy and good AF! oh yeaaaaaah

Ana Santellana

Oh definitely one of my favorite spots!! Be warned though that lines are looooong and they don't take reservations . Avg. dinner wait is an hour off-season & up to 3 during crawfish season!!

Noye Vorabout

Best Seafood in the world! Seafood heaven. Oysters are clean and fresh & to die for. Only probably is be prepared to wait at least 1-2 hrs in line .

Seth Vong

Best Cajun food outside N'awlins! Go for the whole shabang sauce , won't be disappointed.

Jonathan Kang

The whole shabang ! This is such a unique eating experience and the flavors are explosive! With whatever you get, get the corn . The corn soaks up all the juices !

James

Man o man it's good. The garlic and rajun cajun seasoning mixed together is the bomb.

Qui Le

They have a long waiting line . There were many empty tables, wait staffs playing around with each other instead try to get table quick. Food is good and quick. Taste is better than the one in LAS V

Joe Daly

King crab legs crawfish and giant shrimp was to die for

Joe Daly

The wait was 2 hrs but it was worth it ..king crab legs , giant shrimp and spicy crawfish

Francisco Valencia

I tried Snow Crab with the selection of the three sauces options combined and XXX spicy … It was awesome!

Clare Alvar

Love the cajun sauce in almost everything!

Amanda Y

Expect a line but the seafood is worth waiting for. And don't wear white as you'll get some of the shabang sauce on you.

Tabytha Jones

SO DELICIOUS! Very good for a messy birthday dinner .

Food Daddy

Tasty. I will be back for more.

Renita Butler

The fried shrimp basket is awesome and get some sausage to go.

LaDonna Rae Taylor

No plates, no utensils and your food stares at you as you canabilize it. The fried catfish was good, and it didn't stare at me. Fried pickles , corn on cob and potatoes also good.

Lena Basiti

Yummy!!!! The xxx spicy will leave your face on numb and on fire at the sametime

Stacy

We came on a Tuesday night and there was no wait. Food was great and service was excellent.

Margarita Anderson

Crabs , Crabs & Crawfish !!!!! Be prepared for a long wait ????

Kelly Lynch

They don't serve beer at the bar anymore so be prepared to stand outside bored for an hour and a half. I love this place but they just lost my business.

Lannhi Tran

best crawfish in dallas . get the whole shabang (garlic butter , lemon pepper & cajun)

Nguyen Phan

Great place for crawfish . All the extra stuff like shrimp , potatoes , fries etcc do add up to a hefty bill. But I like the place

MOE

This is the best sea food i've been to in Dallas

Taylor Lewis

Nisha Harris

Vertis Boho

Elijah Kim

One of the best crawfish place in town !

Spunk

Amazing food! Long wait . You MUST get the whole shebang

ChantalixiousZz LaDiva

Place was busy but we were allowed to place a to go order as soon as we got there

Paul Nelson

Great seafood and good prices

K Genter

The wait isn't worth it. I mean the crawfish is good, but for 2.5hours it would be better to put that towards driving to Louisiana. There are other good Cajun places in Dallas.

David Cockburn

Don't forget the sausage ! It's great too!!

Erin N.

Come early or wait! Well worth it though.

Sonia Neblett-Burnett

The whole Sha-bang shrimp (mild )was the bomb

Tauri L

The best crawfish in Dallas ! $6.99 a lb can't beat it!!! Get the Whole Sha Bang!!

David W

Put your name on the waiting list early. It is generally a two hour wait.
