About The Captain's Boil

The Captain's Boil is a seafood restaurant that offers a fun and casual dining experience. The food is served in plastic bags, making for easy cleanup, even though some may see it as wasteful. Customers can choose from various seasoning options, including garlic butter, lemon pepper, Cajun, or the restaurant's signature Captain's Boil, which combines all three. The menu features a variety of seafood such as crab legs, clams, mussels, and shrimp, with the crab, clams, and mussels being particularly well-received. The shrimp, especially the headless shrimp, has been noted as delicious, though not always a favorite. The Captain’s Platter, which includes a mix of seafood, has been praised for being fresh, hot, and tasty. The seafood boil is known for its great flavors, especially the Captain boil and Cajun sauce, which are considered amazing, though sometimes a bit salty when paired with sausages. Prices are reasonable considering the good quality seafood, with lobster and king crab being highly recommended, along with the shrimp. The restaurant provides bibs and large gloves, although the gloves may sometimes be in less than perfect condition. The Captain's Boil is a lively place perfect for family gatherings and celebrations, with a laid-back atmosphere and easy wheelchair accessibility. Customers appreciate the friendly, attentive, and quick service, which makes every visit enjoyable. Sides like fries and seafood fried rice are also popular. While the dining area can be crowded and the washrooms could use some renovation, the overall quality of the food and the excellent seasoning make it a highly recommended destination for seafood lovers.
