My lady and I enjoyed our meals until we realized the boil we ordered had pork in it that we did NOT request. Later on that night and into the morning we were both pretty sick with upset stomachs. So unfortunately i couldnt finish my meal which was $100. Beyond that everything was nothing short of exceptional; especially our server! She was such a pleasure and very attentive. She was truly upset for us about the pork mix up, I just wish we were accommodated for that.
It was an average spot. Overpriced for the quality of food. I had a decent experience, so I was glad I went but probably won't go back. Good seafood is all about the quality of the seafood and the expertise of how it is cooked, which was lacking for the price we paid. I paid the same amount for excellent seafood cooked to perfection, which made it worth every penny. Also, the BYOB reduces the experience. As a first-time customer, this was not highlighted enough on the website or Opentable when I booked the reservation, so we had no drinks with our dinner.
I had amazing time, the food was delicious, service was great!

Kat was absolutely amazing! From the time she took the phone call with her patience with all my questions about the different seafood boil options. She genuinely took the time and effort to explain. When we went in to pick up the food, the kindness continued and she even took the menu out to explain it all even further. I recommend asking to speak with her if you have any questions with your order!

It was a very nice experience. Our waitress Kay was warm and friendly. The food was good. You get a lot of food. I loved the crab fries. We would go back.
We celebrated a friend's birthday here. We ordered two combos,the festival and the ultimate feast. The seafood was high quality and generously portioned. The sauce was incredibly delicious. The service was very attentive, and our server surprised us with a birthday cake, candle, and a cheerful happy birthday song. Thx

Fresh, flavorful, and fun! The seafood boils at Nauti Cajun Crab are perfectly seasoned, generous in portions, and finger licking delicious. Friendly staff and great vibes. Hands down the best seafood spot in NJ!
Hands down the best seafood we've had in NJ! The boils are full of flavor, portions are generous, and the atmosphere makes it fun for families and friends alike. If you're craving fresh seafood and great vibes, this is the spot you don't want to miss
Long wait for food after appetizers. Quality and price don’t add up. The crab fries were missing the crab. The seafood was very over cooked. Some of the wait staff are very friendly but management and structure seems absent. Long wait to received cold food with the wrong seasoning. I will not return as this feels like an over priced Joes Crab Shack.

Food was overcooked and cold the manager argued that I was wrong. No one ate most of the food and they didn't want to take the food that was all left behind off our bill . Never again so disappointed they used to be great
My go to spot for sea boil, but only negative is that there is a tripping hazard between the main part of the restaurant to the left back hand. Anybody who goes will know what I mean.

This past Saturday, my husband and I, along with two of our friends, enjoyed a delightful dinner at Nauti. We had made a reservation, so we were able to skip the wait for a table – which was a nice bonus! The ladies at the front desk greeted us with such warmth and friendliness. After trying out several seafood boil spots, I can confidently say that Nauti is the best! The food was super fresh and bursting with flavor. Plus, it’s BYOB, so we brought some wine to pair with our seafood feast. Our waiter, Javier, was just wonderful—so pleasant and attentive. I wholeheartedly recommend dining here to anyone looking for a fantastic seafood meal!

I waited for a long time to get here….last week I finally got the chance to go and let me say I was very disappointed in my dish.
We were the first dine in customers there (hint)
I was craving red snapper so I ordered the deep fried red snapper it was $45 for the dish. I think I really paid for the oil in the deep fryer because it was no way worth that amount of money. My fish was very overcooked and under seasoned I mean no flavor at all to the fish the rice was typical bland white rice. I did bring it to my servers attention and he brought me some s/p 🙄
Now, I stalked their IG page for quite some time and I see how a lot of content creators visited this place and it “seemed” pretty hyped up and food be looking very good….so why when I go I didn’t get the same out of it?
Idk but this was the worse red snapper meal I’ve ever had and I’ve had plenty so I’ll definitely stick to where I know is good from now on bc this here made me mad and usually I don’t leave any left behind but this was trash oh the calamari was good whatever they use on that should be used on the snapper.
My son ordered a seafood boil with a side of garlic noodles he also disliked his meal it had no flavor (not pictured)
The only good thing it’s byob so thankfully I didn’t have to pay for any drinks.
Just my experience
****update: Thanks for taking the time to review video and receipts****
The food was not good my sons ate it bc we were hungry we will stick to Red juicy crab hook and reel for seafood boils and I will stick to where I know is good for my red snapper #1 Cuban Pete’s have some goodt snapper but we wish you well.
