The Boiling Seafood

This restaurant has been by far the cleanest cozy space to eat out at I’ve found in a while. Yah’ll know LaJourney we bought out the family we all got boils but the appetizers were even great 10/10 must try and try again they have a small but great book selection. Staff on it tho no need to dig into a new read but if you like it’s there. For my thirsty LaJourney yah’ll know it’s a bar there also come alone or with the family you will enjoy!!

We ordered the lobster boil for my wife and I. It was perfectly prepared and enough for the two of us. We chose the mild spiciness and garlic and butter sauce. My wife who does not eat spicy food thought it was the most she would tolerate. I enough spicy food and it was enough. We will definitely order from the again. The photos are the full meal in a bag and. Half portion on a plate. The oysters are sparely sold — my daughter got a dozen. She enjoyed them as well.

Always phenomenal

Very friendly, delicious seafood! Ordered 4 meals to go and they were still hot after a 30 min drive home. The Utica Bag is excellent, but so was everything we ordered! Thank you The Boiling Seafood! We'll be back.

We had “carry out”, everything was labeled and packaged very well, no mess on the way home! Everything tasted amazing! Thank you, everyone enjoyed their meal!

Let me start off by saying our waitress Amy was AMAZING! The food is wow sooo good and good portion too everything comes out fast and hot! We got the fried calamari it was so good we ordered goyza and our food came out right after we was done with our appetizers! Don’t let the negative reviews stir you away! We’re glad we finally tried this place out!

Our waitress Lisa was very lovely. She was the only server during a rush and still managed to tend to our needs whenever me and my wife needed anything or had questions. The food was delicious and tasted very fresh. I definitely plan on coming back.

Made reservations Friday for a table for 10 but 12 ppl actually walked in to dine, which was fine because they accommodated us, the waiter Lisa was nice at first but she started complaining about how overwhelmed she was and how busy today is and she’s the only one waiting tables 😒 not sure what is going with the town of UTICA but it seems from checking into the HTL to going to eat everyone out there complains about working 🤣🫣 I’m from NYC where being busy is a blessing and having a job that pays is also a blessing 🙏🏼 anyways the food was good, i order the boil bag 2 lobster tails, 🌽 🥚 🥦 & 🍤 (they don’t clean their shrimps by the way) 😩😩 before leaving Lisa caught an attitude and I had to let her I just tipped you 20% the rudeness is not necessary. She took long to bring out the receipts and she also served my sister the wrong wine thinking my sister wouldn’t notice it 😒

A great place for dinner. The king crab boil was ABSOLUTELY delicious! We will definitely be back.

Very happy

Truly one of the hidden gems in Utica! They have the BEST crab rangoon!
I got the Dungeness crab combo for my meal, and it was absolutely delicious. Everything was on point!

I’m from NYC and came to Utica for a visit. My friend and I are both seafood lovers, so we searched for a seafood restaurant. We originally planned to go on Monday, but they were closed, so we went the next day for lunch—and let me tell you, it was worth the wait!

I ordered the Utica Bag with added ramen noodles, and the Cajun garlic butter was amazing. I told my friend that next time I come to Utica, we’re definitely going back
