A friend of ours suddenly said, “I want seafood boil,” and just like that—we landed here. Parking can be a bit tricky, especially on a Saturday night. The place was packed, and we were with a baby, but luckily got a table pretty quickly. The menu has great combo options where you can mix crab, shrimp, lobster, and more—all in one. TBH, that’s the way to go instead of ordering everything separately. We ordered two Combo F along with shrimp fried rice and Cajun chicken fried rice. Combo F comes with Snow crab legs (1/2 lb), lobster tail, shrimp (1/2 lb), Potatoes (2 pc), Corn (1/2) Now comes the fun part… The seafood arrives in a plastic bag with your choice of sauce (Cajun, Garlic Butter, lemon pepper, Old Bay, Island style). They shake it all up, and then it’s on you to dive in. You’re given gloves, crackers, and tools to break open crab legs and lobster shells. Basically It’s messy—but its beautiful mess ..lol I started off all proper with gloves and tools, but after some point, I ditched the gloves because it was just easier to enjoy the food that way. The Cajun sauce was absolutely delicious—rich, spicy, and full of flavor. I even ordered plain rice just to mix it with the

Hubby and I wanted to try seafood boil but we were very skeptical! This place is a hidden gem! The food was definitely better than we expected. From the appetizers to the entrees, so delicious! The drinks were okay, wouldn’t come here for drinks but everything else was 10/10. The vibes, music - love the fact Bad Bunny and Hispanic music was played instead of the normal/restaurant music. The dumplings 10/10, fried shrimp 10/10, the seafood boil was also a 10/10! And to top it all is not expensive at all!

We enjoy this seafood boil spot! Good variety on the menu. First discovered it and did take out and enjoyed the quality of the seafood. Then dined in with a group and then a smaller party. The oysters are fresh. The catfish basket with sweet potatoes is succulent, tender and delicious. Also got the Crab Island Green Tea, a tasty drink. The bathrooms seem clean. Parking can be a little tight but accessible. The sharpie writing alll over the walls is interesting but at times can be noisy to the eyes.
