    Regular spice level

    Surprised to find such a gem! Clean and casual environment. Had regular spice level seasoning: crab, shrimp, clams, mussels, sausage, corn and mini potatoes mixd in bag and served up on butcher paper on table. Made to order fresh - not too salty - was flavorful and delicious. Had w side of rice and also some ramen noodles. Put on the bib and gloves they give you and dive in. Appreciate the thoughtful details! Courteous staff. Will be back to try some of the plates.

    Had a craving for Cajun shrimp and this place did not disappoint. For being delivered it was so fresh and still warm. I'm giving a 4 star just because the only thing I did not like was the corn, it was pretty bland. The shrimp and fries on the other hand SO GOOD!!! I asked for extra sauce in the bag and it was so flavorful and juicy!

    The mussels by the pound (I didn't take a good picture of them while we were eating)

    The restaurant is small but they sure do put out some great food !!! Service was great, she covered our table which turned out to be a great idea !!! We ordered fried oysters, and fish and chips (both came with fries which you can have plain or cajun style !) we ordered one plain one Cajun . Then we got an order of one pound of mussels , they come with Cajun sauce or the garlic butter sauce or the two mixed together!! We choose the garlic butter Cajun sauce. When I said it the server taking the order said "good choice" and she was right !!!!! Not gonna lie the sauce is a little messy (they do provide gloves and a bib) but so DELICIOUS!!!!!! So good !!!

    First time visitor Located in a small strip lot Plenty of parking Indoor dining yes No outdoor dining Order in or to go DoorDash had a special upon ordering for picking or delivery Clean interior, one main dining area, 5-7 tables at most? Greeted upon arrival to pick up order The gal confirmed the order placed and name on order Piping hot, came with utensils, smelled great, and lemon wedges served on the side Order 1/2 shrimp head on and 1/2 mussels and 5 potato (shy of 25 after my damage) with all the sauces mild It's not as saucy as other places but garlic loaded which I love and Cajun tang Mussels were cooked properly but didn't necessarily absorb the flavor and watch out for many cracked mussels shells Potato were tender and boiled and as it sat in the sauce more became tastier Shrimp with head on meaty cooked perfectly easy to peel Would come back. Pricing similar to other locations. Different lunch specials. Seafood boil hit the crave. Seems easy for Togo, solo dining, family Dining, date nite

    i was craving seafood boil and i decided to give this place a try because people on tiktok hyped it up. we got 1lb crawfish 1lb shrimp and added corn & potatoes. we started with an order of the cajun fries and they were cooked perfectly. the fries are thick cut with a light crunch and not too much seasoning. the seafood was cooked perfectly as well. this is the first place ive been to where the crawfish shell was soft and easy to peel. even the claws came out easily. the sauce they make is on the sweeter side so keep that in mind. overall, i really enjoyed the food and i will definitely come back here.

    My family and I went to Boil Daddy last night after not being able to find any places that could sit the 6 of us without a wait for dinner. My friend recommended this place to me a while ago, and I'm glad I finally went! We were not disappointed at all! Everything was priced very fairly, the seafood tasted fresh, and everything was delicious! You pay for everything first, and then you are able to seat yourself. It's a standard seafood boil restaurant where there is paper on the table and you eat right on it. I also loved that they give you gloves in addition to the bib! Our food came out fairly fast, and the workers were all very friendly. I would definitely recommend to anyone in the area :)

    This place is awesome and fantastic! Owner was very kind and friendly also seafood was so fresh! My wife said she will be addicted to Boil daddy Stanton! She might be visit this place within this week again!

    I honestly love this place! It's so good and it keeps me wanting more. I didnt take pics of the dessert but their ice shu is a delicacy. Most people do take out but I always eat in because it's very clean! Theres a total of 3 tv screens in there so if there's a sports game you wanna watch, this is the place! Def recommend this place if you're in the area

    Five stars for the service alone!…read more Came here by chance, but man am I glad I did. The wings were fresh, and they have plenty of great flavor and dipping options. When I came in I could tell that they were still getting the fryer up and going, and they could have easily just said it will be ~10 mins and I'd have been fine, but the person waiting on me offered to let me try the various flavors with a celery stick to see which one I enjoyed the most - I got to try a few options (which did steer my final choice), and it gave them a few extra minutes to get the show going. That's good customer service! I saw them cleaning, helping multiple customers, and just going the extra mile to make the show go. Good on those two! :) The place was clean, and there's plenty of seating inside. I'll certainly be back, and you should as well!

    How dost one mess up an order not once, but twice in a row?…read more Wing Ferno, we really wanted to love you. But it's clear some serious kitchen training -- and maybe a menu reevaluation -- is in order. Let's start with the spice levels. You used to offer a good range, with the infamous "Wing Ferno" heat reserved for those who truly wanted to test their limits. Somewhere along the way, though, you axed the regular spicy and a few other mid-range options, leaving only mild, medium, and Wing Ferno. No warning, no clarification. When we called to place an order, the staff casually said "spicy," which we assumed meant something tolerable -- not a fire-breathing, stomach-churning sandwich . And we can usually handle our spice -- we're Korean. But this? This had us both violently ill for days with stomach issues. (Sorry for the TMI, but that's the truth.) We chalked it up to a miscommunication and decided to give it another shot. This time, we explicitly asked for medium heat to avoid the inferno. And yet, one of our sandwiches showed up missing half a bun. How does that even happen? We really hoped to add Wing Ferno as one of our go-to spots, but after two back-to-back disappointing (and stomach-wrecking) experiences, we're going to have to take a long break -- if not call it quits altogether. Please do better, Wing Ferno. We want to love you!

When I would come inside, I would see their other limited time food items, like their brussel sprouts and order that as well. I really enjoyed their brussel sprouts and now sad to see it gone. I joined the Mama Hieus App which makes ordering ahead easier for pickup. I really like the app bc its simple to plan your dinner ahead. You can pick the day and time you want to pick-up. If I could make one request, is if you can give customers (me) the option to pay like extra $1-$2 for their orders to be ONLY FLAT WINGS on small orders. The chicken is so well crispy and coated and the non flat wings are too meaty but then carry less of your delicious seasoning in my opinion. Does that request exist? I guess I should ask this with your staff in person if I can get a special request to get all flat wings only. Overall, still love your wings and travel once a week when I can from Irvine to get them to share with my Mom for our bonding time.

    Koko's is a staple restaurant in this area for casual drinking vibes and consistently good food…read more Everything here is made to be good with a beer and some soju. We got the 8pc fried Pepper Soy wings and the Large Dubboki with cheese. The wings are always so good here. They're humongous, crispy, and sauced to perfection. The Pepper Soy flavor was so yummy and umami.   The trick is to get the dubboki so that you can dip the chicken in the sauce. The rice cakes are soft, and the sauce is sweet and spicy. The table also gets sat with a free side salad and pickled radishes, which is a great way to cut the richness of everything. A bite of chicken, a sip of beer, some rice cakes, and a bite of cold radishes really makes the night. Come out to Koko's for a drink, some eats, and a good casual time.

    This used to be one of my favorite spots, so it honestly makes me sad to write this…read more They've made a few changes to the menu and pricing. The dukbokki can only have ramen when it's a large. On top of that, cheese is now $4 extra and ramen is $3, which feels a bit steep for add-ons. They also changed the salad sauce--it used to be more on the sweeter side, but now it leans spicier (around a 3/10 spice level, still good), which may or may not be your preference. The biggest issue, though, was the food safety concern. Our order included 8 pieces of fried chicken (4 drumsticks and 4 wings). The drumsticks were fully cooked and fine. However, the first wing piece I bit into was clearly undercooked. Because of that, we did not continue eating the remaining wings--the other three were set aside and later on, discarded into the small trash bin they keep at the table. When I brought it to the staff's attention, they told me the redness was from bone marrow due to a broken bone and that the chicken was fully cooked. However, the bone only broke because I bit into it, and the meat itself was visibly pink. Not just near the bone where bone marrow would be. The actual MEAT was red and pink all throughout. This was not just "marrow." Even zooming into the picture, you can see the meat on both the plate and in my hand was still red and pink. Additionally, the remaining wings were only visually checked by the waiter and were not opened or inspected internally, which would not confirm whether they were fully cooked. This is concerning, as a visual check alone doesn't accurately assess doneness. It also concerns me that, despite not being present, the owner claims his servers point of view as factual, including the claim that all the wings were eaten, which is not accurate. We did not consume the remaining wings after the first one I bit into. Unfortunately, there was no apology from my perspective, simply an "explanation" stating it was bone marrow. And the situation wasn't handled with much concern. I ended up feeling sick and had to go to the bathroom to throw up, which completely ruined the rest of the experience. Overall, I'm really disappointed. Between the price changes, the food safety issue, and the owner's response focusing more on defending the situation rather than acknowledging the concern, I don't feel comfortable coming back.
