We just came back from here , I decided to spoil myself and my girlfriend for dinner. We arrived near opening around 3:50ish (they opened at 3:30) didn’t feel a need to make a reservation and as we were seated the waiter was nice and attentive . Shortly after getting our beverages the food came out to our astonishment because we’d thought it would take awhile longer, having ate at other boil places. This was served on a platter that appeared to be covered in garlic and oil . After a few moments of eating we’ve came to realize this was not flavorful to which we came to two conclusions as to why : 1. This was cooked separate and the sauce/boil was just poured over , 2: this was cooked prior on demand and was just placed in the boil of choice when asked (hence the over cook) we found the crab crawfish and mussels overcooked to a chew and the corn saturated in oil . We had asked for two eggs to be added in the end and somehow the eggs were overcooked (seen in photo) . Overall everything had no flavor outside the sea , I had high hopes and when I asked the waiter if she could be honest , “was this made fresh today?” She told me she doesn’t speak good English , as to which I decided to just pay and leave . I do not recommend this place to be your choice of dining . We’ve had many more hit the flavor palette you’d seek . For the price I expected better.

No wait when I visited. Service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. They have robot waiters which is wild to me. The food is REALLY delicious. I enjoyed my meal and will visit again if I am ever in the area!

Great food, wonderful service, and always very clean. They supply gloves for the boils, but they are very loose. We always bring our own food grade ones. And, don't forget to wear your bib! 😉

There were plenty of seats available when we were there on Friday, October 1, 2025. I ordered the fried catfish and was disappointed. It just didn't have much flavor. My partner ordered jambalaya, and although there was an incredible amount of rice, he said it was tasty and only $10. They have a cocktail menu, but not a true bar, so the cocktails are probably from a can. It's a cute place, with a robot waiter and one server helping all the tables. There is a small parking lot that could fill up if it is crowded, but also street parking.

I’ve only been there once and I must say, it was perfect. Any place that is as fancy as happy crab Charge an arm and a leg but the prices for the food was amazing. Everyone in there was super friendly. I will be going there again, even though it’s far from my apartment. I hope they make one in downtown Seattle, I would go there all the time.

They do not serve fresh French fries and onion rings . They are frozen out of a bag . They do not serve jumbo. Real Jumbo is soup with a roux . None of their food is Cajun. The service is very poor . No refill on iced tea as promised. Requested extra plates , three times . I talked to the manager about the issues, however she just wanted to defend these issues and not accept constructive criticism. I would not recommend this restaurant.
