Remove your rings and watches, Prepare yourselves for the great delicious mess, totally worth it ❤️ we got the shrimps and king crab legs with their signature shabang and mild spice .. Unforgettable
Yummyyy!! Get ready for a mess 🖐🏼 The experience was awesome 😋🦀
Not a seafood fancy ; but their "medium spicy shrimp shabang" absolutely delicious 👌 ! Don't miss the tasty cajun fries !
Shrimp with whole shebang (got mild as medium was super spicy for my taste) get a side of rice and mix it with the sauce😋Fried shrimp basket is yummy, too.
Hands will get super messy but completely worth it. Definitely try the crabs , shrimps , fries & corn . All amazing, complete with attentive and patient service!
This location was much larger and cleaner than the other boiling crab . The spice is hotter than normal, but everything was fresh, tasty, and quick! Nice service too. Will be back!
Had the King Crab legs and Potatoes and Corn all in Garlic Butter sauce . It was fantastic. The best meal I have had in years. Would go back again and again.
If you have a big group and want to be seated fast, go right after they open. I prefer to go early if I'm going for lunch in the weekends.
The crab is just amazing
Get a side of rice and mix it with the shrimp sauce 👌🏼
One of the newest locations. Lots of seating never any wait all the tines I've been here. One of my favorite places :) Eat up!
Get the whole shabang ! Peel your food first then put it back in the sauce and let it cure some. Get the corn .
Everything is good but the oysters are my favorite 😍
Be careful not to get any of the sauce in your eye while you're peeling/nomming! >_<
The "Eat By your hand" experience is AMAZING 👍🏼& the food is Very delicious 👌🏼
Don't wear your favorite outfit, it'll get ruined, bring your own gloves if you prefer to not get dirty w/your hands. Last tip, order clams & shrimp for sure!
One of my best places to go eat with family and friends or on a date
Wait time on a Saturday night is at least an 1hr 30mins. Come prepared or walk across the street to 7/11 and grab a small snack to tie you down if yiu're starving.
Big brunch 😍😍😍 very clean 👏👏
Soft shell crabs are the best
Yummmy loved the king crab legs and the cajun chillli fried 😍
Enjoyed the food. Shrimps were great!
Love this place ! Medium is a good level of spice.
EVERYTHING THING IS AWESOME HERE!!! Be ready for a feast.
Go for the Shrimp Whole Shebang with Cajun fries
This place is a lot nicer than the garbage grove locations cause its next to sweet Costa Mesa n south coast plaza ;)
This place is awesome. But after you eat here, go back home and take a shower , Unless you like smelling like shrimp
Delicious shrimp and crab
Food is great. Service is great.
the whole shebang is a must have!
Not good for hungr people cause it takes time to remove the shells 😍😍😍😍 I LOVE IT
Go for shrimp 🍤
Flavorful but I'd love for the sauce to be infused in the food.
To avoid the crowds try to get there by 530pm
Shrimps shrimps shrimps
Best king crab legs I ever ate!!
Less butter means thicker sauce! Yum!
Gumbo is wonderful
Get the Fried Oysters before ya get down n dirty with the whole sha-bang
They won't seat you till your entire party gets there.
Bomb.COM :)
Cajun fries . ALWAYS GET THEM.
Yummmmmmy , so friendly
So much fun to go out with friends :)
Juicy and meaty 🦀
Shrimp and Cajun fries
Amazing that's it!
Went to Tapioca Express across the street after for some milk tea . 😊
Get the whole shebang
For shrimp 's lovers!
It's true...just as good as Boiling Crab without the wait. So delicious! The bowl of rice is a bit pricey at $2 but otherwise, this place is a favorite. - Dean S
The gourmet portabello mushroom tacos are amazing. So many flavors in every bite. - Matthew Cox
