    The oysters appetizer (after I'd already "Hoovered" three of them).
    J B.

    Tried Bag O' Crab in Montebello this past Friday. It's located in the Albertsons parking lot, and used to be an old Carrows. We ordered the combo for two, all shrimp (fully peeled for $2.00 extra & totally worth it). We also ordered garlic bread and oysters as an appetizer. Everything came out fast, hot and perfectly cooked. The spice level was just right, potatoes and corn were delicious, soaked in the sauce for a perfect bite. The shrimp were cooked to just the right consistency, not overdone and rubbery. It also came with sausage, which was plump and flavorful. Not too spicy. The oysters were fresh, briny and paired with lots of lemon (upon request) and Tapatio. Delicious! The garlic bread was good, and supported the meal well. Our server, Nick, was great. Attentive, helpful with the menu and Johnny-On-Spot with more napkins, lemons and refills. We got there at around 5:30, without a wait (for a party of two). However, it was already packed, and by the time we left, there was a good amount of people waiting to be seated. The restaurant was clean, lively and bustling. There are even robots rolling around delivering food, utensils, etc. A pretty cool experience. For two people, we had a great shrimp boil with delicious sides, garlic bread and six oysters as an appetizer for a great price. Can't wait to try it for lunch. We'll definitely be back!!

    couldn't get seated at boiling carb but this spot made up for it The wait on a Friday night was about 30-40minutes . But once seated the service is quick and fast! Food came out about 10 minutes after we ordered. Everything was so delish. My favorite was the lemon pepper fried dipped in that sauce. (If you like lemon order these)

    Food is tasty as usual. I got the combo 1 that essentially is 2 lbs of seafood but the corn, sausage and potatoes comes free. Service is good. However one thing to note is that they charge an 18% service charge that they claim is not a tip so that's something to consider when coming here. Do you really want to pay an extra 40% on top of your bill?

    Po boy not bad at all

    This place made me miss Boiling Crab. It is just like what you'd imagine. You order a pound of your seafood of choice and you eat with your hands. They offer plastic bibs as well as gloves which I appreciated. For flavoring, we ordered garlic butter and Louisiana flavors. The Louisiana flavor was the best by far! Just go Louisiana for everything. We also ordered: Po Boy sandwich - surprisingly really good and would definitely order this again Fried Mussels and onion rings - the friends enjoyed the mussels but the onion rings were okay as I've had better elsewhere Cajun Fries - really hit the spot! Tip: take the bag of your leftover sauce to-go and add more seafood at home. I added noodles as well and it was a weeks work of deliciousness.

    Combo 2
    Elia M.

    Our third time here and wow... this place is consistent! The food is absolutely delicious, satisfies our cravings every time. We tried the combo 2 this time and it was perfect. The shrimp here are HUGE lol and you definitely get your money's worth. The calamari was also really good. Staff is super friendly, willing to answer questions about the menu, and they greet you with a smile. Seating is either booths or regular tables but plenty of it. Stop by if you're in the area!

    Combo for 4

    Food was great and reasonably priced! Service was great as well and Vanessa did a great job serving me and my family visiting from China.

    The short ribs plate and garlic noodles was a big hit for the kids. Their fried fish baskets are big portions that can definitely be shared with someone. Been coming for several years for special occasions!

    Honestly, this experience started off a little weird. The hostess was pretty rude and standoffish right from the beginning, which definitely didn't leave the best first impression. Once we actually sat down though, things got a lot better. Our waitress was super nice and the food ended up being really good. We ordered a pound of shrimp, a pound of crawfish, a pound of mussels, a pound of clams, plus corn on the cob and some drinks. One thing to note is their seasoning can run pretty spicy, so if you're not big on heat I'd probably go below mild because even mild has a bit of a kick. I wasn't the biggest fan of the seasoning mix I chose, but that's more of a personal preference and I'd probably try something different next time. The space itself is pretty big and comfortable overall.

    The robot!

    I went on a Sunday morning right when it opened. Plenty of parking and no waiting. The service was kind and helpful. We got there at 11:30 and literally by 11:50 it was busy and almost full! Glad we got there when we did! The food was brought out by a robot! That was fun!!! Got some garlic bread and a bag combo 1. Corn, sausage, potato's, and double shrimp. The sauce was delicious and the garlic bread was tasty! The shrimp was wonderfully cooked! We couldn't finish the whole so we took some home. The ambiance inside was friendly and our waiter was quite attentive for us and that was good! I do plan to go again!

    Love the ambience all about nautical themed and just beautiful. I really appreciate it.
    Joyce A.

    I would come here just for the ambience. Of course, the menu offers many varieties of seafood.

    Tried out this place 12/21/2025 We were starving after playing at Topgolf. My daughter chose this place to go and eat afterwards since it wasn't a far drive. Plenty of free parking in a shared lot. Ambiance is definitely casual. Luckily, she made reservations!! When we arrived, there weren't that many people, but as time went by, a whole lot of people arrived, and the wait was LONG! There were plenty of places to sit, the issue was that if you ordered seafood to peel and eat, it takes a while!! I've tried that type of food before, and I chose to eat something less messy. Something that I don't need to wear a bib for. I ordered the dish which contained white rice, salad, and fish. Healthy, yummy, and filling. I liked the little robot that delivered food. Someone ordered a basket of fries which were yummy. My brother ordered a basket of onion wings which were also yummy. Service was good and friendly. If I'm in the area, I would definitely come back.

For the price of food and the amount you get, I can't complain! The flavor of their own seafood boil sauce (boom sauce?) is a standard seafood boil flavor, it's legit. The flavors don't overwhelm you and make you wanna go to the toilet right away, you know what I mean? The family pack comes with 3 corn on the cob, 3 sausage pieces and 3 potatoes (like a medium sized potato!) it was good but I wish the seafood had time to sit in the sauce, you can tell the food was dumped on the sauce. We had to fight to scoop some sauce onto our mussels cause the bag was so full of food- what a good problem to have. Maybe the sauce is a bit thin? Maybe that's why it didn't stick to the food? Service was good, the ladies were attentive and professional. The decor looked like this place was known to be a bar- I mean there's a huge bar to the side. There's even a second floor but no one was seated there so it doesn't look used. Cute decor with the sea theme. Not happy about their toilet in the women's restroom. There's a a sign saying to please not dispose the toilet seat covers in the toilet cause it could clog it up. I was being a nice person and went to the trouble of respecting their wishes. It was gross as I was being careful not to touch the peed parts of the toilet seat cover. Don't judge me, only God can judge me! Come here to feed your family and friends at a very reasonable price! And if you're a lady you're gonna have to hover while you pee if you don't want to deal with the toilet seat cover disposal issue...

Not knowing how busy the restaurant would be on a Saturday night, I made reservations. We dined on the earlier side, and probably could have just walked in. We ended up getting some of the sharables, which was great. I love that their happy hour is available in the entire restaurant. Our server was Shanee, and she was extremely helpful and friendly. Since it was our first visit, we had a few questions and she was able to guide us along. Another person that helped us was Veronica, who was equally helpful and friendly. The food was really good, the service great, and the vibe was friendly. If I didn't live so far from the restaurant, I would go often.

    A 10/10 first visit, and I'm already planning my return…read more I stopped in on a Sunday around noon, party of one, and grabbed a seat at the bar. The place was fairly quiet when I arrived, but it picked up as my meal went on. The space is really well put together: nautical theme, interesting art, and lots of natural light from the windows balanced by dark wood furniture. You can watch the chefs cook from the dining area, and the long full bar has a great layout. They also had Sunday football on two TVs, which was a nice touch. It kept things casual without feeling too fancy or too much like a sports bar, just a great vibe for an afternoon of football and a good meal at the bar. The bartender made the experience even better. She was attentive, friendly, easy-going, and engaging, and she was quick, too. You can tell she genuinely likes her job. I'd checked the menu beforehand and spotted the mussels and fries. I love both, so I had to try it. The portion is big enough to share, but it works as an entrée if you're hungry. The fries come topped with a truffle garlic mayo, and the mussels arrive steaming hot in a delicious broth. You choose your spice level, and I went spicy. It was perfect, with plenty of heat that never buried the flavor of the broth. I usually only trust mussels near the ocean, but these were cooked perfectly and won me over. The pairing with fries is one I never would have imagined, and it works. If you like garlic, you'll love the broth. As the mayo melts in, it turns creamy and almost looks like a tomato bisque, seasoned to perfection with a flavor I've never had before. Even soaked in broth, the fries stayed crispy. One tip: I finished everything and still had a lot of broth left. My bartender offered bread for dipping, but I was too full and didn't know it was an option. Next time I'll save room or ask for bread right away. I also tried the seasonal spiked apple pie cocktail, with a cinnamon-sugar rim and a cinnamon stick garnish. It was flavorful without being overpowering, the kind of drink you could easily have more than one of. I'll be thinking about this dish until I'm back, which will probably be soon. I'm dying to try the mac & cheese topped with hot Cheetos, plus a few other things on the menu. Highly recommend!

We usually go with either the Silver or Gold Wagyu set and add on the Wagyu tartare or Wagyu bone marrow. Both are always delicious and packed with flavor. For broth, I normally choose either the Japanese tomato or spicy miso. You really cannot go wrong with either option. For sides, we usually order the vegetable platter, Japanese ramen, and rice. My go-to meats are the premium Wagyu chuck ribeye, premium Wagyu shoulder cut, and kurobuta pork. In my opinion, those are the best choices on the menu. They are consistently tender, well-marbled, and have a great balance of fat and meat without feeling overly heavy. I usually skip most of the other sides and ask for extra garlic and green onions to add to the goma sauce. That combination with the Wagyu is so good. It can add up depending on how much you order, but I think it is reasonably priced for the overall quality. If you get around seven to ten rounds of the meats mentioned above, you will likely get close to your money's worth. I would definitely recommend Mikiya to anyone looking for a solid Wagyu shabu-shabu experience.
