If you want to eat crawfish, this place has very delicious sauce and the price is a bit high, around $30-100. The space is very large and there is a lot of parking but the service is a bit

We got the combo with 2lb shrimp and 1lb clams with the house special sauce, rice, and cajun fries on the side. The price was right!! Significantly less expensive than Boiling Crab and Kickin Crab. The fries were great. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. We loved the big chunky pieces of garlic in the house special sauce. We got medium spice cause I chickened out of trying the spicy level but I think next time I'll get the spicy level. The only thing I can say negatively is that they may want to cook the shrimp a bit less so that the shells don't stick when peeling. But over all, so so good!

Found this place nestled in a little plaza close to my bfs house. We were surprised to find a seafood boil place so close! We were happy to find that they had fresh crawfish and relatively similar prices to other places around the areaUpon walking in, there were only a couple other people there so we got seated right as we got through the door. At the table, they lay out the butcher paper, give you gloves and a bib, as well as a paper plate + lemon & pepper. Not a lot of paper towels and tissues.We ordered the combo #3 (medium spice, house special sauce), which was 2lb freawfudt, 1 lb shrimp? 2 corns and 2 potato, 4 piece sausage. We also got Cajun fries.The fries got there first and we had a few bites before the seafood came out.The crawfish were pretty big, I was able to get s little meat from their claws. Not super worth to get the claw meat, but can try. The shrimp and crawfish were cooked well and had a nice bite to it. The sauce was delicious. I enjoyed it a lot -- had chunks of garlic and such but still saucy. It was flavorful and not toooo oily and had a sweet savory taste. The medium was not spicy , and this is coming from someone who can't handle spicy stuff too much.The potatoes were enough per person. Small potato. The sausage was not a sausage but it was like a hot dog quality. I've had better but next time the sausage not worth getting.This was good enough for the both of us. We finished the combo but we only finished about half the fries We were so stuffed by the end of dinnerThere are two bathrooms but the sinks are inside, so if you only want to wash your hands, you still have to go in.Overall would definitely come here again!

Fresh crawfish and nice setting. Sjc will always be my go to place for crawfish. I think we go here at least once a week. Their Sj style sauce is the best...

I ordered the combo #2 which is 1 lb of crawfish, 1 lb shrimp, 1 lb clam, 2 corn, 2 potatoes, and 4 sausages with the house special sauce with the spicy spice level. The house special sauce was okay but it was a bit salty for me personally and I didn't find it spicy at all. I usually get seafood boil from Claw Shack but it was closed on the day that I wanted to get it, so I went to SJ Crawfish instead. When I go to Claw Shack, I usually get the shambalang sauce which I like better than the house special sauce at SJ Crawfish. Even though combo #2 has 3 lbs of seafood, I'm not sure if the weight is really accurate since I usually order a 2lb combo from Claw Shack that lasts me 3 meals but the 3lb combo here only lasted me 2 meals. Overall, I still prefer Claw Shack. I would be interested in trying the shambalang sauce here to compare it to the one at Claw Shack but I don't know if I'd want to order the combo here again since it doesn't really seem worth it.

My favorite crawfish spot in san jose. The flavoring and spices are perfect! I love how they used fresh habanero instead of powdery spices.
Great food and very friendly staff. Best place in town to taste seafood. Customer service is next level, they make you feel very comfortable with great food.

Delicious seafood boil without the wait! We were able to walk in on a Friday night. SJ Crawfish has a lot of seating and they turn over tables efficiently. The crawfish were some of the largest I've ever seen. We ordered 1lb crawfish and 2lb shrimp but I saw on the menu that there are special combos such as Combo #3 (2lb crawfish,1lb shrimp, 2 corn, 2 potato, 4 sausage) for only $40.99.For the sauces we tried the House Special and the Shambalang. The House Special was my favorite out of the two since it was super garlicky and buttery. I didn't like the Shambalang because it just tasted like mostly lemon to me. WARNING: the spicy is actually pretty dang spicy. I was definitely sweating.I will be back to see if I like any of the other flavors!
