Great Friday night bar spot! Good food and great fun!
A shrimp was absolutely delicious. This service was excellent. Ilove Red Lobster wish I could go more often. Go and try it you will not be disappointed.
Wife got ribs, tough as nails. I got chicken Chesapeake. Worst dinner I have ever had, couldn't even eat it. Salty with terrible crab dip with no crab in it. Who puts slices of bell peppers on top of Chicken Chesapeake? With seeds from the peepers not even cleaned out? Anyway, this restaurant needs to figure out what it is, and should go on the show Kitchen Nightmares. Last time.we went here was 10.years ago, and the food was trash, decided to give it another chance. At least the server was nice, and she had a 12 top on the other side of the restaurant. Whoever is assigning tables or sections don't know what they are doing either. Oh and our silverware was dirty. You can go to Fratellies, Liberatories, or take a 30 minute ride north to C&D near Gettysburg if u want a nice meal with decent quality . Go here for a beer, but that's it. Totally disappointed
Food is always good here. I usually get the headless shrimp stinking special spicy with corn potatoes and sausage. The spice level is always different, there’s times were is not spicy and there times were i can only eat a few shrimps at a time before i’m spiced out. It’s always good tho. the fries are good, the garlic cajun ones bring enough garlic to kill a vampire and the garlic bread doesn’t have enough garlic, still bomb tho. you always get a free deep fried oreo and ice cream when dining in. one thing to keep in mind is they close at 9pm but they do last call for kitchen at around 8pm.
Upon entry, there was no host or greeter at the door to seat two groups of three and one group of four. When it was noticed that there were guests waiting, it didn't take long to get everyone seated. Shortly after seating, I and my guests were waited on by a very attentive waitress and other staff members also made sure our needs were met as well. It was a good experience.
This was my first time ordering food from them and I was not disappointed. The catfish and butterfly shrimp dinners we ordered were prepared perfectly. I will definitely be back again.
Stopped by for a quick drink and ran into a great band by accident.
Animal Magnetism. Scorpions cover band. Damn they were good. There is nothing like the sound of heavy metal guitars thru Marshall Amps.
What a great surprise it was and got me fired up for some 80s hairband music.
Stables is well known for the bands and its a great atmosphere.

My family and I have been coming to this location for 5 years. Jay and Brady are always so kind and always make sure our table gets taken care of . The atmosphere is fun, easy vibes it really makes you enjoy your time. The food is always consistent as well!
The wait time is always worth it 😁🤤🤤

Went for Breakfast buffet. Buffet had lost power. Eggs were cold. Some items lukewarm. Pancakes & scrapple had to be ordered separately. They were hot & good. Buffet for 2 was $50. Service was excellent.
AVOID!!! Not a fair business
Got our fish and chips which had issues. The general manager claimed the fish may be bad coz it was very rubbery. He then charges us, while discussing, he abruptly takes our card out and leaves without saying anything. We go to the entrance and ask for bill and they mention we paid it already. Ended up not being charged for the fish but whole experience of him, The General Manager , Victor, was nothing but stressful and not pleasant. He was very condescending and very demeaning. Staff apart from him were very nice.

Late night dinner date, the food was filling and fresh. Staff were attentive, and helped add to the relaxed atmosphere. Everything you could ask for at a seafood boil restaurant. Highly recommended!
The food was delicious and my friend and I had some great fun and laughs while drinking our margaritas and martini. The staff was very attentive.
What an amazing place our waitress who has a couple small kids and works part time there and I think maybe as a bartender too. was just so amazing. Great recommendations Food was delicious, we made so much fun of the karaoke next-door to us. The drinks were phenomenal. I would highly recommend going to this place.
Fantastic Low Country Boil. It was out first time there, but definitely not our last. This will be a MUST have everytime we are visiting Emerald Isle. It exceeded our expectations. How many different ways can you day it was absolutely delicious?
The food was delicious! The service was great! The owner brought out a pastry she baked for her staff for our family; making our birthday celebration more memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure excellent customer service. 👍 Thank you!
Good food, great service! Stopped in on a Saturday night around 7pm and only had a 10 min wait. The hostesses were very friendly, and our server Amber was great! Very attentive and made sure we had everything, checked on us several times and offered some great suggestions. Food came out pretty quickly and was delicious. We hadn’t been to Red Lobster in years, we’ll definitely be back to this one.
I love it here. What’s not to like? The view in a clear day in summer is amazing, the wind in your hair kinda feeling, in colder days it’s just not visible but if you like games go downstairs after your food experience and play or just unwind in their garden. It gets empty in winter but you can use the bar in second floor for a cozier feel then. I love it in warm days of course better. Food is good, not wow but some dishes are small but it’s ok for me. The only thing that restaurants sometimes don’t get is music: bad choices to play super loud when people came to talk and eat- maybe just use a more relaxed tune? We are not there to dance?)))
Delicious, tasty, savoury sauce, decent portion, price is ok. Good to have with family or friends, be ready to get messy/dirty hands.
Fantastic service! And the food was to die for. Sweet crab legs and shrimp! The lobsters were a little on the smaller side but very good. We were a large party of ladies, and all was good.
My first time there, they were attentive, answered all our questions and the food was amazing. The crab fries were top tier and the host even included calamari for my sister’s birthday. Overall great experience, would go again!
We go to Red Lobster a few times a year and try various locations around the area. Tonight our server was Rodney. He was great and super quick with refills(which is a big deal for my husband). The food was very good tonight as well. Best experience so far at a Red Lobster!
Food was good. Generous portions. Was skeptical of the stuffed shrimp but they where good and large. Almost like a crabcake sitting on each of the 3 shrimp. Ribs were tender and tasty. Area was a bit dark and generally relatively cold. Kay(sp?) Was very kind and patient with my questions and did a great job.
Took my son here for his first time celebrating going into the 9th grade! He enjoyed the salmon.
I have been coming to this Red Lobster for years. The staff is always great! I had the pleasure of having Sue as my server this time and she was amazing! My only complaint is my shrimp Alfredo. When I received this I thought they made a mistake as the tails to my shrimp were still on the shrimp. After being told this was the way it was now, I was taken back. If I wanted a messy meal, I would’ve ate something else. Shrimp Alfredo shouldn’t be a finger food nor should I need multiple plates to take my shrimp and cut it on a separate dish. This was definitely a let down and I didn’t even want the meal anymore. Once again, the staff was amazing and made sure I was okay but this new “rule” is not smart.
My server was Temple! He’s very attentive, professional, and a great asset to Red Lobster. He’s the type of employee, who makes the customers want to return to this restaurant. Prices are equated to the quality of the food you get. Environment? Phenomenal! It doesn’t get any better than that… it’s Times Square!!!
Lived in this county most of my life and never been here. Food was delicious, waitstaff was good had to flag down our waiter to get check but I think he didn't want to rush us since it was a family birthday dinner. Atmosphere was good, its also a bar and they had to make a drunk guy leave bc he was mad about being cut off but barmaid handled him quickly and effectively while not disturbing dinner customers. I would definitely recommend this place!
Had the fish n chips and was let down. The fish was mush inside the thick breading. The tartar sauce was disgusting.
Oysters were really good.
Drinks were cool.
Everything was overpriced, but what do you expect for a seafood restaurant.
They have a small arcade and mini golf in the back.
Service was great, bartender hostess and other staff were all really nice.

Service was great, they do validate parking if you're in the garage. We got the snow crab combo with the whole sha-bang. It was good but it got very salty quickly.
I wish I there was an option to give more than five stars. Our server Rodney gave exceptional service. I’ve been in the restaurant industry for 8 years, and Rodney was the best server I’ve had. Absolutely FANTASTIC service and personality. Went far and beyond to make sure we had a great experience!! Thank you so much Rodney, and for making my birthday experience amazing. 100% must request him!!!!
Food was delicious. I had Cream of Crab soup, the 8oz Crab Cake with Rack of Baby Back Ribs. Crab Cake was real Maryland style made with LUMP Crab meat. Ribs were the fall off the bone type. Quaint inside. Looked like a locals spot, but don't be fooled. We were from FL and we were treated like we belonged.
The place was very busy, Sunday mid afternoon. The staff was very friendly, helpful, and attentive. The food was average at best. Side salad was over dressed, mashed potatoes very dry, and the fried shrimp passable. My wife's meal, chicken and pasta was better.
Food - 3/5
Sirloin steak lacked any beef flavor and was not great. Mashed potatoes were meh, passable. Steamed brocolli tastes like frozen broccoli that was poured into boiling water.
However, seafood here is actually good. Well, it's to be expected from a seafood restaurant. Nothing extraordinary, but it's enjoyable. And once with friends or family, the experience of food is more of a secondary.
Service - 5/5
Service was really good. My family and I were very well attended by our waiter. The manager also came to our table to assure our satisfaction. Any questions we had were answered with politeness.
Atmosphere - 5/5
Very family friendly. The dull primary colors used in the inside do not cause any sensory overloads and are soothing to the eyes. The interior design mimicking that of northeastern coastal is really unique to many restaurant chains. The subtle nautical themes give life. And the music is safe and low enough to enjoy any conversations over the table.

We came here on a weekend for dinner and this place was so packed. It was a bit disappointing to learn on the spot that they do not do take-outs on weekends. If you still want to eat here on a weekend, plan to dine-in. It did help to know that they have a lot of seating which spans to 3 levels. There are no elevators so be prepared to get some exercise especially if you have a baby and need to carry their baby car seat and stroller up and down the stairs. Other than that, the staff was nice and accommodating. As for the food, they have a great menu of seafood items. It was my first time trying a snow crab roll and that was quite special. The PEI mussels were surprisingly small but the sauce that was paired with it was perfect. Overall, we had a nice dining experience here. This place is situated close to the water so it felt like we were eating seafood by the beach.
The menu has added many new dishes. The lobster remains as delicious as ever, and the grilled shrimp is full of flavor. However, the roasted potatoes were just average, not quite tender. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience, making for a wonderful Friday night!
Ordered two types of shrimp and the snow crab. It was delicious. Service was very friendly. Michelada was good, but could have been way better.
There was a lot of confusion upon arrival as we didn’t realize there are two different restaurants with very similar names within 30 feet of each other. This restaurant is pretty much only seafood boils and is the door to the left.
Limited parking on site and limited seating indoors, but there is some outdoor seating onsite. Beware that there are a lot of ducks that will pester you while you eat outside.
We ordered by checking boxes on a piece of paper and returning it to the server. She did come check on us, but I think the service would be better indoors. The food itself was pretty good though the shrimp was a bit overcooked. We were really hoping to try the crab cheese fries, but they were all out. We got plain fries as well as a double order of the crab, shrimp, and crawfish and it was perfect for 3 adults.
It was definitely an experience outside—a herd of ducks surrounding us, pecking our feet and stealing our napkins out of our hands. The waitress chased them out of the fence and shut the gate but they managed to sneak around the side of the fence and get back in. It was strange but also pretty funny. Our 8 years old loved it, but I think I’d choose the other restaurant next time.

We visited this location for the first time tonight. The biscuits were delicious but what made it a great evening was our server, Rodney. He was so attentive and personable. I haven't had service like this in a long time. Someone like him should be corporate trainer! Thank you Rodney for a great evening.
I usually don't come to this location but did not feel like driving too far. Next time, I'll do the drive. Worst service ever. From the moment we sat down, our server had an attitude and seemed miserable. He hardly came to the table to check on us. I'm not sure if it was cause we had a small child, and he did not want to deal with it or what. He went to every other table perfectly fine, so I'm not sure what his problem was. If you do decide to come here be prepared to wait, for everything. There was a long wait to be seated even though there were multiple tables open and the food took forever to come out.
Took my mother and brother to check it out. We got there at opening and there was a line. Once the joint opened, it filled up, and stayed full. We ordered the peel and eat shrimp, it was on point. The Dungeness crab and Blue crab weren't live (out of season I guess) They were still flavorful but not ultra fresh. The crawfish were out of season so I didn't order any. If you do, get the whole sha-bang, it's the way to go. The spot is a good one. The service impeccable. The flavors all there. It's a must try. Been coming here for years and have many fond memories. This location doesn't not disappoint.
We got there, seated immediately, server was friendly. Food came out quickly. Got the biscuits fast and left full. Food was OK. My daughter wanted to come here and she enjoyed every bite and that was the main point. (5 stars on her end) my noodles were kinda hard but not inedible. I would go back, I would just order something different.
Stopped by for a weekday lunch to find the place completely empty. The staff was incredibly helpful and attentive! Wanted to sit outside, but the umbrellas were not opened and table was lava hot, inside was air conditioned but still pretty warm. We ordered the steamed mussels, a fish sandwich and one of the boils. All was tasty, but spiced a bit different than what is typical at other seafood restaurants. I would visit again if in Swansboro, but not go out of my way.
The food is always delicious. Unfortunately, we had to wait 45 minutes to get our meals.
And we’ve got no refill, which should be an automatic in service without asking.
In addition, they do not accept any electronically payment method with your smartphone.
And they charge you automatically the tip with 18% , from my standpoint also a no go.
In general they overall experience was pretty good as the food tastes good.

First & foremost, parking was adequate, the appearance of the restaurant was clean, and once entered, I was immediately greeted & seated. The service was phenomenal. The server was well acclimated with the menu, which was helpful in making a delicious decision. Once ordered, the food came the way it was ordered. And it was fantastic. Now, as far as prices are concerned, they were very affordable for a restaurant of this magnitude. This location is a local favorite of mine, and you gotta try it and see for yourself !!!
This place was charming, a bit warm, but so much fun. The citrus sweet tea was delicious! Our server was so sweet and very helpful. Our food was absolutely delicious. My family (2 adults 2 kids) shared a medium boil and it was way too much food! The leftovers were delicious! The hush puppies were also fantastic. I would eat here every day if I could!
Our photo was after we had already begun to devour our boil!

I loved this place. Great setup, theme and food. The idea is very simple, and executed perfectly. You can get all kinds of shellfish, and similar food. Order by the pound, pick your seasoning and fixings, then they bring it to you in a bag to chow down on. Super messy with all of the butter and fish juices, so if you don't like seeing or feeling whole shrimp/crayfish and such, then this would not be for you.
The food out here is quite good. This place will satisfy all hard-core seafood lovers. If you are in love with clams and lobsters, this place is for you. Otherwise, I would suggest going to Cheesecake Factory or any diner since they have a large variety of foods. Overall, this place is pretty great for a lower budget hangout spot.
The service was great. Food was tasty and flavorful. Seafood was fresh. The place is big, great for a big group. They even offered to keep our birthday cake in their refrigerator and brought it out when we were done with our food. We came at 1 pm on Sunday and the parking was easy.
It is so peaceful in red lobster that you don't even realize you're in Time Square. Our server José was great, so friendly, and was making us laugh and checking in if we needed anything. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. It was overall a great experience. We went on a Saturday and was seated pretty fast.
Service staff was attentive yet unobtrusive. The shrimp and scallop skewers plate was delicious! The scallops were cooked perfectly; not rubbery at all. I got it with the garlic butter sauce and thought it was an excellent choice. I have a capsaicin allergy so felt something the moment I bit into the coleslaw. I thought it a bit weird to have a spicy coleslaw. Just not my thing. Coleslaw for me is meant to be sweet and tangy. Overall, still a great dining experience.
Great boil and fast great service. The food was just right and made the way you want it.
Thank you The Stables in Westminster for a very enjoyable night. It was 5 at our dinner table and everyone had a lovely meal. Then Kittyback took the stage and rocked your place for 4 beautiful hours. We all loved every moment. Thank you for continuing to book Kittyback!! We love them and you ❤️
Beautiful location. Lacking much effort for accuracy and satisfaction. For the most part the food came out cold. But they made it right and brought out hot stuff. Boil was pretty good. Clams were sandy but the rest was nice. Luckily they had a short wait to be seated and and good refills.
Had an amazing experience with our server! She revealed that she has been a server at this particular location for over 35 years! She was so professional and helpful and making our menu decisions and her personality is exuberant! She made our experience even more pleasurable with her convo! Oh yeah and the food was perfection 🤌🏽
Again OMG I love Red lobster. The food was outstanding the shrimp was to die for. And the Margaritas are amazing.
Loved my lunch here! I went all out on getting twin lobster tails, which were delicious. In the post on Facebook, lots of likes by others too. Go here and enjoy yourself. But be sure to reserve ahead or call 4 seating ahead, because it's the theater district.
I actually dream of the calamari here. I’m 7 months pregnant and in a huge calamari kick and these take the top rung in my book. The space is super fun and huge. I totally understand why there are bad reviews- the space is large with lot going on- so lots of room for service errors. But our experience at 2:30pm on a Saturday was smooth. Our party of 2 got seated within 5 minutes of arrival. Service was very friendly! Our food came out so fast which was very surprising considering how massive and busy the restaurant was. It’s such a great summer vibe and I cannot wait to come back!!!
Place is legit. Worth the hype. Beautiful view. 10/10. You can see Jersey on a clear day from the roof. Place was pretty packed and the appetizers came out in about 10 min. Get the grilled octopus 🔥🔥🔥. And the chowder was super legit. Thanks Brooklyn Crab 👍
Great food, excellent service, we went to celebrate my daughter graduation, everything was great!, I definitely recommend you this restaurant to family dinner or casual dinner with friends!
We had a nice quiet dinner here. We were waiting to be seating for about 5 minutes, no one in sight. When we sat down our waitress was very nice. The food came out pretty fast and was decent for what it was. The seating area is pretty dark but that seems to be a red lobster theme. If youre a red lobster fan definitely come here but real foodies know this isn’t where you come for the good stuff.
I am writing to express my utmost disappointment and frustration with the recent order I placed at your establishment. On 6/10, I ordered a 6-pack of oysters to go, expecting a delectable treat to enjoy. However, upon opening the package, I was dismayed to find that one of the oysters was completely empty, containing no meat whatsoever.
To say that this experience was underwhelming would be an understatement. As a loyal customer who has frequently patronized your restaurant, I have always appreciated the quality and freshness of your seafood offerings. Unfortunately, this incident has left a bitter taste in my mouth, quite literally.
I genuinely hope that my feedback will be taken constructively, as my intention is to see your restaurant succeed. I have always appreciated the overall experience at your establishment, which is why this particular incident has left me deeply disappointed.
I trust that you will address this issue promptly and take the necessary steps to prevent such occurrences in the future. Your attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,

The food was really good but I order some beignets and I was really excited since I had tried them in Louisiana but regrettably I suggest do not order those item I'm sure the picture speaks for itself. They look like overcooked donuts 😬
I’ve been coming here since they’ve opened , & I’m extremely dissatisfied on how they continually cheat the customer by changing things up . The customer service , reducing the porition sizes to barely anything , increasing the pricing , the sauce being water downed tasting like nothing . Them not cleaning the poop out of the shrimp . I came here yesterday to get my usual jumbo shrimp meal with potatoes & corn this is what they gave me . I hope it changes , until then I can’t come back it’s a true waste of money .
Amazing experience! Shout out our server Jorge with house warming service and Danny with the utmost care to see if everything was alright. Not just these two but everyone within the establishment. Very attentive!! Food was immaculate. my fav was the fried soft shelled crab! Delicious!!! And everything else was up to par. Definitely a revisit when we're in town!
this place is amazing we tried it out about a month ago for the first time and went back 2 weeks ago for my birthday. we get the amazing crab cheese fries and the boil with double crab, oysters, shrimp, potatoes, corn, and sausage. we always had a few leftovers. it’s buttery, seasoned well, and the parmesan is amazing makes the oysters just so much better. the only thing i have to say is we had to leave early on my birthday for these two inconsiderate women who were absolutely rude to the waitress and complained the whole time that all they had was seafood and didn’t have what they wanted bc she didn’t like fish. it was outlandish really so we got up and got our food to go. hate people are so stupid and rude nowadays but other than that my favorite place to eat in onslow county for sure!!!
Great restaurant with a good vibe. The girl who welcomed us and the waitress who took care of us were very nice. The dishes were sooo good 🤤 and I really liked the crispy dragon fruit. The portions were generous. As for the cocktail they were really delicious.

My brother I were looking for some seafood and found this place. Once we got there around 12:30PM there was no one there. We walked up the stairs and noticed a girl standing by the bar. She told us to take a seat anywhere and we did. Then se came up to us and asked if we’ve been here before and said no. She told us she wanted to go over some stuff we should try and we said okay great. She recommended we get the signature dish from the menu which did not have a price on it. So we went ahead and ordered the signature dish from their restaurant. After the signature dish arrived as you can see in the picture it was cold but a lot of flavors and it was not worth $228. I was speechless when I saw the bill but I did not say anything because I should’ve asked before. My only problem is I left that place feeling very hungry I was not full at all. Once I got home, I had a very bad heartburn. It was crazy. I couldn’t stand it. I had to go to the doctor. Everyone going there I would recommend you ask the price if you don’t see it on the menu, or else you will get robbed in broad daylight. This is not the place to come and eat to get your stomach full. I would never recommend anyone to get the signature dish from the restaurant.
Very disappointed. I came here all the way from Apple Valley. The last time I was here was approximately one year ago and it was good. Today, everything was trash even the customer service. Our bag of sea food was cold, wrong sauce and shrimp. We asked for more sauce and the correct sauce we ordered to be brought to us. Mind you, the bag they brought out was cold. They mentioned, we only have one cook. We'll, that is NOT the customers problem. Do your JOB!! 4 waitresses gathered at the bar on their cell phones, talking, laughing and one of them kept messing with her long hair. Aren't they supposed to not touch their hair or have it all over the place when dealing with food???!!!! We were never asked if we needed more water or anything else. I had to go and get one of them to pay for my meal. I will never come here again. I don't recommend this place either. Go somewhere else. $80 to go home disappointed and with a stomach ache. Disgusting!!!

Ordered the peeled shrimp with crab n spice flavor, added potatoes and corn, got French bread, coleslaw and beignets. The bread was good. The beignets were okay.The coleslaw was not good. The shrimp sauce tasted good but the shrimp were not deveined... I cut the back of one open to make sure (see picture) and indeed they had not deveined the shrimp....so very very disappointing overall especially given the price... :(
Came here on a Saturday afternoon for some dinner. Wait time usually around an hour. Ordered half a pounds of shrimp with the whole shabang mild spice with a corn. Got a basket of Cajun season fries mild. Half a dozen of raw oysters and a model.
Great experience just not sure how I feel about frying the lobster tail in the shell. Like it was really difficult to eat but at least it was delicious. That’s like frying a shrimp without peeling them. Final verdict. I’d come again. Plenty of seating and good atmosphere to accommodate most.
Our first time here, and we loved it. Some friends invited us, and we will definitely be returning soon. We had the fried calamari, catfish, and 1 LB of mild seasoned shrimp. I think next time I'll try medium. I would definitely go back just for the calamari & catfish alone, but the shrimp are amazing also. Great friendly staff and entertainment.
Evelyn made our evening feel very welcoming and very comfortable. Her service was top-notch, the food was outstanding, and our evening experience warm and comfortable.
I hadn't been here ever, so when my daughter said mom so you can choose it off your list I was so excited due to the commercials being so good, well they sat us on a table that the seat was torn, the service was ok but would have liked to have been treated with more kindness, she was like what yall want, you ready or not? type attitude! The food could use more portions for the price and more flavor!
Ordered over $250 of food when they opened for a 5pm pickup. They took my credit card number and asked me to call back at 4:25pm to confirm. I called and when I arrived at 5pm, nothing was done to my order other than having it on a piece of paper. Manager was laughing at me for being distraught over food not being ready for daughter's 18th birthday party. No apologies at all and kept changing excuse on why food wasn't prepared or even placed into the system. Took over 20 min to get our food even though the manager said he'll rush the order and it'll be done in 10 min. About half of the shrimp were mushy/not fresh. Everything other than the shrimp were bland.
Was not like it used to be. No one at front counter to sign you in for a while. Staff came and went at the counter, but never said anything. We will be with you, just a moment, someone is coming or anything to show we appreciate your business. We will be right with you. Had to wait quite a while to be seated. Many empty tables were seen. Nobody was bussing the dirty ones. Finally, we were able to be seated. Prices have gone up considerably. Guess it depends on what you order. It was that fish and chips plate. The cod was like a sponge and FULL of grease. Once it hit the bottom of my stomach. The evening was over. The other dishes were ok. Nothing to write home about. The complimentary cheese biscuits were warm and tasty. They offer a bar with a seating area. A couple of handicap parking spots in front by entrance. The parking lot is smaller size and rather tight with adjoining restaurants. Small seating area in the lobby area. Seating outside for waiting but close to banister, making it difficult to walk by people seated.
There's not too many seafood restaurants around. We had lobster steak baked potato brussel sprouts everything was really good. Cooked perfection. The service was excellent.
The service, the food, and location are a wonderful place to have a nice meal with your friends and family. Our server was super cool and friendly, while the food was very delicious. I had shrimp and lobster tacos come and my wife had a seafood platter. We both loved our meal. The only downside was that there was no IPA beers on draft or even much of a selection of IPAs in a bottle or a can. That was the only downside for me.
Nice staff, reasonable food.
It's boils, so be prepared to get your hand wet. They do have disposable bip but you should bring your own glove if you don't like sticky or messy hand while eating.
Probably a few recommendations would help new people feel easier to try.

We enjoy coming here the food is yummy. If you like seafood this is the place for you. We get the shrimp by the pound along with corn on the cob, sausage and potatoes. The fried shrimp basket with fries is also good. They also have chicken tenders with fries, a nice option if you don't like shrimp or any of the other options they offer. I recommend this place, the only thing is the wait time is a hit or miss depending on the time you arrive and check in for a table. My experience has been anything from 30 minutes to and hour. We don't mind the wait time as we can check out the surrounding shops.
The boiling crab restaurant never fails to make me happily full. Their whole-shabang sauce is great. Some shrimp, some lobster, some crab, side of rice, side of corn, side of sweet potato fries, side of garlic fries and extra sauce always does the job for me. Their prices are slightly above other restaurants but that’s okay for the taste. Also the experience of eating straight from the bag never fails me. Eating in a messy way without worrying about the cleaning 😃. Overall i highly suggest for people who are new to Southern California and for tourists, it is a must experience.
Let me save you the run around my friend. They do not let you purchase sauce on the side anymore unless you purchase actual seafood...not fries, pasta, chicken..only seafood. You no longer can place an order over the phone. I was directed to the site that wouldn't even let me login and I've been a VIP member for years. Check your bags before leaving. I've been shorted so many times on my crab and once only had one sausage in my boil bag when I purchased extra. Pier88 is only a mile away. Give them a try. Still fairly new as well. I'm only referring you there because I've done the leg work. I literally don't want the hassle of ordering here anymore and yet I enjoy the food when it's right. This isn't to be negative at all. I'm just being honest. You guys have gone downhill a bit. Great crab n spice fries tho. Thank you
Found on Google, no wonder why they have such an amazing rating! Staff very knowledgeable and very friendly! Food was fresh, hot, crunch and so delicious! I ordered the Fried Shrimp Basket with a side of garlic aioli! Definitely well worth the price! 5 Star Yum-Tastuc!!
Great spot. Massive location for many patrons. I could eat this all the time when I was younger but alas, in my age, it still tastes amazing but my system can’t handle it too often. Nothing against BC, it’s about me getting old ;) lol
Whole shebang, mild, sausage, love the corn, shrimp and potatoes. They were so slammed that they ran out of crawfish but I don’t normally order anyhow. Too much work for the little shebang.
Awesome time catching up w a friend. Service was awesome and had a michelada. Goooood stuff.

Excellent place for seafood. The service is very friendly and the food is delicious. Parking is a little hectic, but overall the food and service is simply great.
Finally got our table after an hour wait. Minor gripe, but everything else was delicious! The taste was on point. Shrimp/clams/crawfish/calamari were awesome. First timer gets the bib treatment.
To start off by saying thank you to the staff that hosted tonight I loved the exceptional service, and smiling faces. I ordered a pound of mussels in the garlic sauce. They where cooked perfectly, the garlic tasted fresh, but there where not as many as you would think you would get. I also ordered the fried calamari they where fried in a fish fry which I was not really a fan of, they where kinda bland. They offered to clean the shrimp and crawl fish. The sauces where good but the garlic sauce got bland after a while. The French fries where crispy. I do not think I will be returning, but keep up the hard work.
Nice new but sorta down home Cajun cookery with all sorts of coastal seafood options, including a XXX combo special, that tastes as good as it sounds tantalizing! If you're sick of the of protocol and "properness" of eating with utensils and want to truly become one with your food before you devour it with your hands then this is the place! Perfectly balanced temperature and sound. Great place to have fun with your food and lay it all over the table if you want to (bibs and full table covers are provided)!
OMG! This place is so, so good. Best seafood place in Palmdale. Had the king crab and the captains dish delicious. Its better to dine in for the freshest food but be advised you have to pay upfront plus an additional 18% on your bill for 6 people or more. It's worth it. Great service, they supply the tools, bibs, gloves, wipes and mints. You will need lots of patience. They get busy. Again it is worth the wait. Best clam chowder soup yummo
saw this place and had mix reviews - decided to try and and not worth it at all. Kids menu items same size as regular items. We order 1lb of shrimp and it’s been over 30 mins and they haven’t brought it out . It was empty when we arrive. They have a pay first policy because if they don’t ppl ( my family ) would’ve left already . Omg I thought it was weird they offer Thai tea … well it’s a can 🤣
Waitress was ok , but she didn’t make eye contact she knew it was taking way to long . The time it took them to bring out the shrimp I would’ve made it to San Pedro and have gotten my food . But you live an learn - if someone knows of a good place here in the av pass it along . Thanks

Normally we come here to eat crab legs with the whole sha-bang sauce but wanted to eat something different since we know the crab legs is delicious lol.
The person checking us in was okay. He seemed kind of irritated but he tried his best to get by. He didn't smile and was just monotone.
Our server was really nice. We got the gumbo, fried catfish basket, fried sha-bang shrimp basket, crab fries, and eggs with the whole sha-bang sauce. Everything was really good. I thought I took a pic of my egg but I guess I didn't.
The prices is reasonable and most of the time, the service is really good from start to finish but this time the start was rocky.
We are looking forward to coming again.

The seafood bags are really fun but I have to say the garlic sauce is way more butter than garlic. The mussels were by far my favorite part compared to the shrimp, although honestly, my favorite dish here was the garlic bread! It was so delicious. The deep fried Oreos are free if you dine in but honestly I thought they were so gross because the Oreos get squishy in there!
The service was nice but once you get your food you’re pretty much on your own because they don’t check back in on you.

Love their coconut shrimp and the most delicious, mouth watering biscuits.
Our waitress, Joni, was the best.

Amazing sea food. Delicious and tasty. Get it spicy or mild. Great treat for family and friends.
I must say I had better seafood boil in seattle. Whenever I'm in different state, I like to try seafood boil there. I was a bit disappointed here because there hardly any flavors beside spicy. We got medium spicy too and don't get me wrong, I eat spicy food all the time. This "medium" spicy didn't allow us to taste any other flavor beside spicy. But on a good note, their michelada was a really good drink.
Came here for dinner and had crawfish, shrimp and crab legs in their house seasoning. Everyone was great! Loved their spicy flavoring. Plenty of fresh limes for a bit if fresh flavor. As a bonus, fried orea and ice cream for dessert is included.
