Customer Reviews
We’re from Palm Beach County, Florida, and were visiting Boston on a trip I personally curated. Captain Louie’s was one of our planned stops after seeing so many great reviews and videos on social media, especially TikTok, and overall it absolutely lived up to the hype. The food was very good, and our family had a great time. The seafood was fresh and enjoyable, though I personally felt the sauce could have been a bit bolder and slightly saltier. That said, it was still well prepared and satisfying. The service was great overall. One small moment stood out when my boyfriend asked for a Miller Lite and was told it wasn’t available, but no alternative beer options were offered. He ended up going to the bar to see what was available, which felt a little odd. Aside from that, the staff was f
Came here for the first time while visiting in Boston, It was in a good location plenty of parking. We walked in and it was pretty full in there but we were sat immediately no wait. I got the lychee adult Capri-Sun for my drink, it was honestly super super sweet and I wasn’t a fan of it so I give it a 4/10. I got Soju after that, always good. For my entrée I got two crab clusters and I added extra potato to my boil. I got the medium heat level with the Cap’t Loui sauce. The sauce was pretty good I gave it a 7.5/ 10. The crab themselves were great. The potatoes were nice and soft but not too soft. Everything held flavor and I enjoyed it. Our server I believe her name was lucy. 98% sure. She was a nice girl but her service was slow. One of the people I was with asked if they had Miller light
I purchased the 4 lbs seafood boil including lobster tail. It says online that potatoes and corn come with the food, you'd think that they'd you enough of those, but no when I got home, I only got a single potato and a single corn. Absolutely unacceptable! The meal was for someone's birthday and it was so disappointing after all the money I spent (close to $170) because I had to go purchase other sides elsewhere to eat with all that seafood. Another friend purchased the same thing, 4 lbs of seafood and got... You guessed it "a single corn", with at least a couple of potatoes. This is crazy, they make it seem like they give you enough potatoes and corn in the meal. I don't know who's responsible for quality control at this place, but this is not it. It definitely left a bad impression on me
After a recent trip to Baton Rouge, I came back absolutely craving real Louisiana-style food — that perfect mix of spice, butter, and soul. I honestly didn’t expect to find anything close up here… until I stumbled across Cap’t Loui on Google Maps by total coincidence (thank you, food gods 🙏). I ordered their shrimp po’ boy and wow — they nailed it. The flavors took me straight back to Baton Rouge! The shrimp were perfectly seasoned, the sauce had just the right kick, and the beignets were also delicious! My hope is they add more cajun and soul food meals to the menu soon!
I was really disappointed with my recent visit. When my seafood boil arrived, one of the potatoes in the bag had already started to sprout. That’s a clear sign it wasn’t fresh and should never have been served. It really made me question the restaurant’s food handling and quality control. The rest of the meal was okay, but seeing that made it hard to enjoy the experience. I hope the restaurant can pay more attention to ingredient freshness in the future — customers shouldn’t have to worry about that.
