★★★★★ 5.0 Zukenii · Sep 2025

Food was so good! We’ve been craving seafood boil for a while and this place hit the spot! Expensive but so worth it, my husband and I shared the queen of the sea. Perfect portion for us and we had leftovers. We also got the mixed fries, I liked the ratio of regular fry to sweet potato fry, sweet and savory. I didn’t get a pic of the seafood boil before but I have the after lol.

Absolutely disgusting experience. The seafood wasn’t washed at all, and my crab legs had parasite leech eggs on them that spread all over my gloves and the rest of my food. When I complained, I was told I wasn’t the first person to bring it up and that “it isn’t harmful.” Whether harmful or not, it’s gross, and ruined my appetite. I eat crab boils often and honestly NEVER had that issue. Considering multiple people have had complaints or concerns you would think they would try to accommodate their customers. The only positive was that my waitress was kind, but the food itself was inexcusable.

Excellent place for fried foods. We sampled the Chicken wing, alligator tenders, fried catfish and Oyster Rockefeller. Everything was well prepared and had great flavor.

This has amazing reviews and for a reason! I loved trying out this place. Im from Colorado and was visiting with my family. My husband and I were so excited to have our first seafood boil here in California. This place is very clean and the server was very welcoming. They give you lemons and salt and pepper containers which i thought was pretty cool. I got the shrimp with head seafood boil with Hella spicy and one n only sauce. YES it was Hella spicy and I loved it! The shrimp was so soft and tender. My husband got king crab and he loved it so much I didn't even get to try a piece 😅. Mexican cokes were a plus I loved that they had this as an option. Will definitely return here if I am ever in San Diego again. Highly recommend as a tourist from Colorado 🙂👍🏽

Fresh Oyster I love it. Seafood Cajun combo and Garlic noodles little salty. I usually eat them together but I can't do it without lemon. Shrimp is ok. Totally, it was a good meal but did not reach that price. Service: They don't bring plates unless you order. When you pay the machine's recommended % the tip is too high. Just Click “custom” You should know your number of tips.
