Fried chicken sandwich was very good, serced with a huge portion of fries

The food was good but extremely overpriced. Unfortunately the portion sizes are ridiculously small for the price tag, especially the Paella. Almost $50 for a kids size plate.
It's a shame because the menu has potential.
The cocktails weren't any better. Flavorless glasses of alcohol. No creativity, no pride in crafting a delicious drink.

I’ve been coming to The Crooked Gaff for a few years now, and last night was probably one of the best meals I’ve had there. For my birthday dinner, they truly did not disappoint. We had the shrimp and crab ceviche, tuna crudo, oysters, surf and turf, and clam chowder. Everything was exceptional.

The ceviche and tuna crudo were a standout with their vibrant flavors, a rarity that made every bite delightful. The tuna crudo, paired with macha salsa and rice, was phenomenal—the freshness of the tuna surpassed even that of high-end sushi restaurants. The surf and turf, featuring perfectly grilled shrimp and a steak cooked to a perfect medium, offered a generous portion and exquisite taste.

The service was equally impressive. Our waitress was attentive, regularly checking on us, and the beer selection was also excellent.

More people need to visit The Crooked Gaff to experience the incredible food they’re preparing. Highly recommended!

This place is one of my absolute favorites in Whittier! The burgers are amazing, and I love their selection of Belgian beers. I am no oyster expert, but I tried them once and they were great! My partner and I come here often and have never been disappointed. The servers are amazing and always friendly. Highly recommend!
