Pound of shrimp . Pound of sausage . Cajun fries . Crazy delicious. Wear your rattiest clothing because you will have shrimp juice running down your arms by the of the meal.

Rong Nguyen

Great place to eat seafood such as shrimp , clams , blue & dungeness crab , crawfish , king crab legs , oysters and they have diff types of mixing sauce. It can get pretty messy so wear the bib

Abdulaziz ????

I recommend Clams and shrimp ???? are my favorite two ! And don’t forget their french fries ???? with whole sauce was delicious ????

Steven Yu

For 4 people get at least 2 pounds of shrimp and 4 orders of snow crabs , 1 pound of crawfish , 1 order of king crab and assorted fries and u should be all set.

Jole P

Solid prices for larger volumes of seafood in delicious seasonings. Reminds you to not be too neat all the time

Stephen Macasil

Sometimes all you can say is WOW! Lb of shrimp with whole shebang seasoning, lb of sausage , lb of napkins to keep up with the mess of goodness! Amazing Cajun-style seafood !

Aarti Wasn't

If you like getting down &dirty with your spicy seafood . This is the right place for the amazing barbaric eating experience

Michael PALRO

If it's your first time, order 1/2lbs amounts of shrimp as it is the only item that can be ordered in that quantity. This allows you to taste more flavor & spiciness level combinations for your $$$.

Kirill Ougarov

It's always ridiculously busy so include at least a 60 minute wait in your plans. Don't worry, unlike Disneyland, the wait is worth it.

L.a. Belmonte

The whole shabang shrimp was a revelation! Fabulous service as well from Taio, unlucky I didnt get to see Cathy . (Been there last 25 June).

Zarina Dichoso

Do you like seafood ? Well go for a little car ride to Rowland Heights and eat at The Boiling Crab. Get yourself a pound of shrimp with the WHOLE SHA-BANG with mild sauce ... YUM!Fill Up & make a mess! Read more

Rick Campos

The potatoe add on is pretty legit. I always get the crawfish > shrimp but less value cuz less meat. Sweet potatoe fries rule and oysters . Garlic butter and medium

Mohammed Abu Hajar

Try it at afternoon easy crowed at night you will quo for an hour at least

Shelya Jones

Worth the wait if you grab a punch bowl at the restaurant across the parking lot .

Ling Landas

Opens at 3pm, we went at 3:15 and both inside and outside was packed. It was good but some of the bootleg crab places are just as good if not better. Not worth more than a 45 min wait.

Cherry

Lots of delicious food!! Try everything!!

DOMINA SEDUCE

Shaaaabang! Shrimp .... And the corn ok the cob. Pretty good place to get your seafood fix and be for the next few months

Catherine Nichol

If you're starving its not the place to go, the wait is ridiculas. Best time to go is when they open. Food was good.

Ryan Lara

Great service. Grab some seafood and drink a Corona!

Therese Tan

Great place it was my 1st time there I WILL be returning :) 

Mynor Rodriguez

The wait is 2 hrs minimum. The A/C blows too strong. They run out of Gumbo quick here so come early.

Trish McNeil

Get here early...the line is pretty long even before it opens for the day

Ericka Glenn

The food is great... Just always cold inside. And you can't order over the phone without paying first.

Cece Chongtua

Be prepared to get messy. Order the whole shebang . It's all 3 flavors in one bag.

Vivian

love the food! But they charge 25 cent for water w/o asking you and one order of corn is only like 1/3 size of corn on the cob

Ian Kowalski

Get the shrimp !! They are peel-n-eat style, but completely worth it!

Grace Castro

They now have a separate To Go door; don't want to eat in? Take the yummy To Go!

Jason Khoo

Your party has to be there to wait for a table

Jed Cranium

Ericka Glenn

All the food is good here!

Michael K. Adams

Rarely have I never seen a line here. Make sure your whole party is present when you're called in or they can't accommodate you.
