I have been one of the most faithful customers. I’ve spent what seems to be thousands of dollars for years on this delicious seafood boil. The sauce used to be 💯 now it’s all butter not too much thickness in the sauce. Sauce isn’t consistent and now it’s hit or miss. I went from going 3xs a week to maybe once every 3 months.

I am not writing this post to throw shade simply to ask for kicking crab to do the right thing and make sure the sauces are consistent....read full review

Hope they open one in nearby Antioch/Concord area!It’s a 2 hour drive just to eat there! Hoping you open one 👍

Stay away, numerous attempts to ask crew to change stupid loud rap music about shooting cum on womens faces, killing cops and shouting N*gger, snorting coke. lots of gang tagging on the pier walls, filthy restrooms.
