    Placed the order via DoorDash for pickup. Parking was ample and free right in front of the shop. The young lady at the cash register was polite and friendly. My order was ready upon arrival. Ample seats to eat inside too. I got myself the food and loved the texture of the item but I felt extremely overwhelmed by the raw garlic taste. I wish I had known how much raw garlic was used for the food because I would have gotten the sauce on the side instead. I couldn't eat much of the order because it was overwhelmingly garlic-ky. If you are sensitive to raw garlic taste and odor like me, this is something really good to keep in mind during ordering. I would love to return and try their other food items. Everything tasted great texture wise otherwise and I would imagine how good the food is had it not for the raw garlic.

    A couple of friends and I were craving seafood boil but the popular restaurant had a two hour wait time. So I checked Yelp and found this location less than five minutes from. I was excited because the rating was high, but it should have went through the reviews a little better. They are located in a shopping center plaza with plenty of parking and only indoor seating. There was no line and a father/son were eating and I asked them, but they thought of the food and they said it was great. I proceed to order one of their combo meals with the Cajun Daddy house sauce mild. I also ordered a side of hot sauce. We also ordered a pound of crawfish and a pound of clams and an order of fries. The service was basic. They put out a paper on our table and brought out our food. They are very skimpy on the lemon, salt and pepper. You have to keep asking for more and they give you very little each time. Let me start off with the fries - they were soft, not crispy and lacked flavor. The seafood is not fresh. I repeat it is not fresh, it is frozen seafood. However, they prepare it, it is obvious that nothing is seasoned or marinated. Their house sauce, which is the daddy sauce didn't do any justice for the seafood. Highly disappointed, especially that we spent a pretty penny. I stopped eating the crawfish and the clams altogether. I continued eating the combo which came with a lobster, crab, legs, and shrimp with the head on. I just could not find any of the seafood tasty. The lobster was terrible, extremely overcooked and chewy. The shrimp, same thing. The crab, it was acceptable. The best thing in this bag was the sausage. There was also potatoes and corn, but I didn't bother to try it. So if you are looking for something quick with no line, come here. But if you want quality and are willing to wait, go somewhere else. I was quite surprised to see a lot of pick up orders taking place.

    this seafood boil spot is not talked about enough! they have so many delicious combos and their daddy's sauce is a must! every single they load up all of their sides and all the portions here are hugeee. my favorite items were definitely the snow crab legs and the fish & chips! the service here is great and they have plenty of daily specials to check out! i would definitely recommend!

    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 !!!

    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!

    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

    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.

    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!

It;s also just a pretty good quality seafood boil as well. The shrimp was well cooked, and everything was flavorful but not salty. I do think that the deal is now $25 for 2lbs, but that is still cheaper than most places around. I added sausage, corn, and potatoes, and my party of two was full. I also super enjoy the $1 shots of soju. It's 6 shots max per person, but that puts you at a nice buzz for your meal. You can also opt for their Buy 2 Bottles Get The 3rd Bottle Free deal, which would be nice if you have a bigger party.  The service here was super nice, and there wasn't a long wait at all. I would highly recommend this spot if you want to have a good time and eat good food. It will be messy, but it'll be worth it!

One of the biggest things for me is the space. When you're playing pool, you actually have room to move around unlike a lot of bars where you feel cramped. I also like that they have full size pool tables. Since I'm a bit taller, it just makes the whole experience of playing pool that much better. There's regular events and even a pool league on Tuesday nights, so there's always something going on. If you are not familiar with Garden Grove, this place is definitely a hidden gem. The food is top notch, but honestly the ambiance is what sets it apart from your average billiards bar. It is extremely clean, which is important to me, and there's plenty of space between you and other people whether you are playing pool or sitting down to eat. It really does feel like a playground for adults in the best way. I also like that it is family friendly. There's large tables that are perfect for crab boils and similar meals where they lay down wax paper and everyone can sit together and enjoy. When I was there, there was a group of kids celebrating a birthday, and at the same time there were adults playing pool and hanging out. The place is so big that it almost feels like there's separate areas for kids and adults, but it is all in one space and you do not even notice each other. That's how spacious it is. I have been here on Sunday afternoons, Tuesday evenings, and Friday nights, and it is always busy with great energy. The music selection is great too. And this next part is insane to me since I'm a huge fan of famous pool players. The legendary GOAT Efren Reyes is going to be there on April 26th playing pool and interacting with fans. I saw the flyer on the wall and immediately grabbed VIP tickets. I'll be lucky enough to say hi to him up close from the VIP section and watch him work his magic in person, which is just unreal to me. Definitely check out the Wharf, you won't regret it.

The restaurant was relatively empty when we went so we were seated immediately. There was only one man running around taking everyone order, but he was nice and attentive. The restaurant is spacious, there are also many pool tables on another half of the restaurant and bar seating. Now, the real deal is food. I have pretty high standard for seafood boil, and this did not meet that standard at all. However, it's all up to preference. Cajun seafood boil (we got crawfish): very bland. You can barely taste the Cajun. I like the punch of the savoriness of Cajun but this has barely any coating on the crawfish. It's not juicy, it's not marinated. The crawfish meat is also pretty bad, tasted close to spoil for some. I understand it's not seafood season, but I've been to other seafood places that can maintain their seafood quality even during off season, this is just not one of the places. Crawfish Mac n cheese: very cheesy, duh. But that's really it to it, not much flavor profile. Just cheese, Mac, and crawfish. And back with the dead dry crawfish that made it off putting. The Mac n cheese itself is pretty decent though, but don't expect a flavor explosion when eating it. Think of it like a dish for kids. Sweet potato fries: jyst my go to sides with my crawfish. It tasted like any sweet potato fries, yay!
