We went on a Friday night, the place was half full. The hostess saw us an immediately gave us a table. The waitress came right away to offer something to drink and gave us some time to check the menu. She came back and took our order. It took around 15 minutes to be ready. We got 2 pounds of the cajun shrimp. They were not too spicy, the temperature and flavor were great. I also ordered white rice which was also good. The place, food and service were excellent, but is a little pricy. But once in a blue in a while it’s ok.

Service was so-so. The food was amazing! I ordered 1 lb of king crab and 1 lb sausage. The levels of spiciness were accurate. The beers were cold. They provide bibs gloves, tools for opening the hard shells. The server didn't check in on us frequent enough. We had to try multiple times to get attention for more beers or the check.

Solid seafood boil place. Food temp is perfect since I was able to pull crawfish in 1 go. Flavor is good. Service was chill.

Very salty I had to add water and the shrimp was over cooked. However, the flavor they put into the food was amazing! The best place I’ve tried for shellfish so far! My family ordered the snow crab, king crab, shrimp, and mussels. We tried the garlic and the kawa bunga flavor. 😋 The phones are always busy, but I walked in and ordered and they had it done within 20 minutes. 👌🏼

Shrimp was hard to peel and powdery, tell tale sign of frozen shrimp. But oh well its Salinas. Expect a wait if you want crab. There are places more fresh, just go for the drive to san jose. Staff was friendly. They waste a ton of limes on each table, they should be more considerate and not lazy. Sauce was great!! I had kowabunga combo of all sauces. Rice was mushy. Wings have a lot of breading and unexpected but good flavor.

Everything was delicious. We got the king crab with the garlic butter, the calamari rings, and the fried shrimp, and some cajun fries but the best thing was the crab legs!
