The mussels, shrimp, sauce delicious!!!!! 3 sauce mix - on point!And we liked the Bloody Mary Saki!And the music was hitting the spot.“

“We had a great time at Gritz N’ Wafflez! The vibe was like home. We live in the south so we love grits. They were creamy and delicious. The drinks were fresh and refreshing. The chicken was seasoned and tasty. I loved the music. It was like being in your kitchen waiting on hot breakfast to be done on a Saturday morning.“

“It’s our first time to experience this place. We were immediately seated by Briana(hope i have her name spelled correctly)very impressive personality, she let us feel at home. She presented us with their menu and suggested some. My wife, daughter and I had a long discussion as we wanted almost all that was there, finally we chose what we really wanted according to what we can consume and we would not want to waste any. Waiting time for prep was acceptable, Briana was always there to make sure we were comfortable and ok. Food was served, and it was done as we wanted. Very delicious food, a bit pricey but it does not matter, was compensated by the greatness of the food and the excellent and caring service. We highly tecommend this place. Job well done Briana and all the staff❤️“

“Love love love Cajun/Creole food! I was more than pleasantly surprised to find this gem in my neck of the woods, and am happy to report that Mardi Gras Tuesday will be my go-to Cajun/Creole joint for the foreseeable future. Mind you, I'm no expert on the cuisine, but I've been a fan for a long time and can happily endorse the Étouffée (crawfish), the Jambalaya, the Mac and Cheese, hushpuppies, and the friendly service at Mardi Gras Tuesday. *Though the cornbread didn't necessarily wow me, all and all, it was a great meal for the portions, price and quality. And considering they got slammed as soon as we walked in (around the start of the Super Bowl), the service was quick and we were in and out of there with bellies full of comfort food within an hour. Can't wait to go back!“

“I was in a part of town I rarely visit & played "Yelp roulette". I rust type in "highest rated" in current location & see what looks interesting. I'm glad I found CF Food Kitchen. It's a fairly nondescript restaurant with a simple interior in the corner of a small pod mall. It was "Wellington Wednesday". Other items looked great, but I've never had beef Wellington, so I figured, "Why not???". It comes as a three course meal plus warm, perfectly crusty bread. I picked lobster bisque which was very rich, creamy and lobster-forward even without many (any?) lobster bits. I took the desert to-go. The key lime pie was solid. The Wellington was good, not great. The pastry was kind of doughy & the mushroom duxelles was fairly flavorless. Luckily the beef loin and Demi glacé were excellent. Also the dollop of whipped mash was great with the Demi glacé and a few small veggies. The roasted gold beet was small, but the star of the veggies. The server was amazing: warm, welcoming, caring and knowledgeable. I hope I'm back in the area to try other items. They definitely focus more on the food than the ambiance, though.“

“First time visiting this restaurant, arrived at opening time on a Sunday. No crowd. We were seated quickly, The server took time to explain to us the menu items. We ordered several items to share including gumbo, shabang bang shrimp, fried catfish, and a sea food boil. All were tasty my favorite was the shabang bang shrimp I'm a spicy girl so the hotter the better so I chose can't feel your mouth, truly wasn't that hot but great flavor. The prices were very reasonable $100 for all that. We were lucky to find parking on the street, however they do offer parking and validation. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.“

“I was going somewhere else but the wait was too long and I am glad it was, because that's how I found this place. Way cheaper than other Cajun around here. Tastier, great service, beautiful decoration, TV and great music. I will definitely be back. Highly recommended.“

“Delicious Korean food. I tried the pork belly, it came with white rice, very delicious, highly recommend and good price! The wings are good too, I tried the chili-garlic wings but I wouldn't order that flavor again. Tried the $50 Booldak with cheese and was surprised to find hash browns at the bottom, very good, large portion, fit for a group to share.“

“This is a casual, plain looking, decent size restaurant. It has a very small and inadequate parking area on site, but there is street parking available. The service is average and unhurried. The prices are moderate and its kind of a nice, informal place to go. The Fish and Chips was exceptional. The clams are served in large plastic bag with lots of garlic butter. They're small but its a good portion. They were out of several things including lobster and oysters. The garlic noodles side dish was tasty, cooked perfectly and was excellent. The restaurant's decor is very much like a typical New England shoreline (non-tourist) local restaurant with tables, a brick wall, standard decor. It was plain and comfortable. I might suggest that you look at the menu online before going and call to see what they're out of. All in all, it was a very good experience and is definitely recommended. We'll be back.

“It was my first time here, although I'm allergic to everything from the sea except fish, which I only eat 3-4 times per year, I was able to find something that I could digest. The chicken tenders with lemon pepper fries are a must-have!! Coming from the Caribbean, the seasoning used for this dish is one I've never experienced. This plate can be ? so be careful!!!“

“Ordered fresh oysters. They were nice but so small in size. Never had oysters that small. It's like a quarter sized coin. Ordered the crab but was not told it was a frozen crab. The texture was not very nice. Crab was charged as such though. Also, I ordered clams, shrimp,eggs, potatoes, and the calendar fries. All were as expected but the clams were very nice and large. Last comment is the spice level. Seems Westwood' XXX is different than Rosemead's XXX. Westwood XXX is not spicy at ?“

“Let's get right to the fooooood! I had got creole style catfish, blackened over a bed of crawfish rice with creole sauce & then paired with red pepper cabbage and Mac & cheese. The catfish with the creole sauce legit so good and comforting so to speak! The cabbage went great with it, so nicely steamed and seasoned. The mac & cheese wasn't my favorite, seemed overly seasoned with pepper. Everything else was great, I savored every bite!“

“Was able to try this food truck that was parked on my street. Haven't had a seafood boil in a while so I was pretty excited. Got the special #2 with lobster tail, 1/2 pound of shrimp, sausage, corn and potato for around $34. I got a mix of mild and spicy Cajun for a good medium spice. The first thing I noticed was how much flavor was in the sauce. The sausage, corn and potatoes were all great. The shrimp was good, just takes a little work as normal with seafood boils. I would prefer an option without the head-on. The lobster tail was the only mild disappointment, due to the meat being a little tougher than I'm used to with lobster tail. Overall the food was pretty good and the service as well. I'd try it again to get the crab leg and shrimp special.“

“Had an all-around great time here at The Crabby Crab! A friend and I had been threatening to come for years and thankfully we finally pulled the trigger. I started off with one of the best Micheladas on the planet. Super flavorful! Then moved on to the clam chowder (pictured) which was amazing. Thick and rich. I highly recommend you get it with everything. Then we split a boil with snow crab, mussels and peeled shrimp in the garlic butter sauce. My friend can't do spicy or I would've gone with Cajun but I was in no way disappointed with garlic butter. The wait staff was super attentive and polite. Great atmosphere. Super appreciated the parking lot in the back.Parking: Small parking lot behind the restaurant. Can fill up easily during busy times.“

“The food is really good. My family and I got the shrimp and lobster and it was delicious. Don’t get their fries. They don’t taste that great. I want to add that one of their staff members was a little rude. She yelled at some of the customers who had sat down at a table about the seating arrangement. You can’t sit down at a table unless you order first. There isn’t a clear sign about this so customers don’t know. She could’ve been nicer about it.“

“First time here I have to say the service was outstanding. The place was very clean and the food was excellent so savory finger licking good definitely, I come back definitely I would recommend someone thank you Bella for your recommendation with the K of C mix Cajun seasoning.“

“I frequent this place quite a bit and love it! Bill is our favorite server when we dine-in. We call him Mr. Bill. He is always friendly. The food is awesome. At least the crab leg seafood boil is. That’s all I get and my friend likes the crawfish. The atmosphere is welcoming and pleasant. This past weekend I ordered take-out. The young lady who took the Oder over the phone was kind as well as the young lady when I picked it up. Always a great experience.Parking: Huge parking lot shared with other establishments“

“There was a two hours wait but we waited it out and the food was very good. The service was quick once we got in. Not sure if it was worth waiting two hours and not being seats until very late into the evening but my family enjoyed themselves.“

“Good service and you can split a combo if you're on a budget. If you're not good with spicy make sure to get mild or less because it has a kick to it. Cute atmosphere. They give you little bibs and over the table cause it's messy. You might want to uber over because parking is difficult over here even when it's not busy. All the food we tried tasted good. Clams had a little grit but otherwise good food.Parking: Good luck finding a spot“

“Elly is the perfect host for Oh mlMyMy Crab. She answered all my questions and helped guide me through the menu before I even sat down.I enjoyed the Jambalaya so much I nearly ate the bowl.Lunch was tied off with a nice and sweet bow.... FUNNEL CAKE FRIES!!you'll have to see for yourselfEnjoy Oh My CrabI sure did!!Sure beats eating out of the dumpster after closing. But when it's good from the trash......well you know it's a cut above the rest!!I'm currently in between homes and this was the best hot meal I have had in as far back as I can remember.If it wasn't for Elly I would not have stayed in the first place.bElly deserves a raise....or two.SincerelyA happy camper“
