This place definitely needs to be recognized for their tasty seafood boils! Got the Combo 1 that came with a half pound and a 1 pound snow crab along with corn, egg, and sausages. I got the house special sauce which was all the above and I must say it was definitely tasty and for $38 it was all worth it and they don't skimp out on the shrimp and crab for sure. Crab was all nothing but thick meat out of the shell so that's an A+ for me. Aside from the seafood, the Lemon pepper wings was also pretty good and crunchy. If you're an oyster lover, you can't go wrong with their all day $1 oyster!! Service was great and they were very attentive with whatever you needed and the ambiance was a pretty chill place with claw machines for the kids So if you're looking for another place to try for seafood, this place is worth the try for sure

My bf & I were craving AYCE crab so we decided to check out this place! We went on a Sunday afternoon & there were only 2 other groups inside so we were seated right away. The AYCE menu is $55.95 so it's pretty pricey, but it includes snow crab, shrimp, mussels, clams, & crawfish. I also like the variety of sides to choose from (although I only ever get potatoes lol). We were really there for the snow crab so we tried to order *only* snow crab but we were told that we couldn't; we had to order something else as well. I was a little confused about that but moved on. I ordered 1/2 lb of shrimp (head off) & 1 order of snow crab (which comes with 2 clusters). I chose the New Orleans Cajun Original, mild spicy, with potatoes. My bf ordered the same thing but with medium spice & corn. They serve the boil in a metal plate, which was a nice touch! The shrimp were *slightly* overcooked in my opinion but the cajun sauce was delish! I do wish I chose medium spice for that extra kick, as mild was a bit too tame. Now the star of the show was definitely the snow crab! I was pleased with the size of the clusters & we ordered butter on the side, which you can never go wrong with. They also give you "scissors" to cut the shell, which I prefer over the other ones that other places give. Overall, this was a good place but I'll only be back if I'm in the area!

Garlic Butter Boil

It was a cool Monday, kind of getting warm, but the sun was getting ready to go down when I stopped into this place for dinner. I didn't have high hopes. Was not happy with the pricing I saw online but I figured it was fine since we didn't want to drive to Chinatown or go further into Henderson just to get crawfish. We walked in and I was expecting a big seafood smell, but surprisingly there wasn't. There was a few tables full, but the place wasn't that busy on a Monday night. There were people waiting at the counter for to-go orders, which confused me since it made me wonder why they would get to-go. We got seated right away in a pretty clean booth. The server dropped off menus and we didn't see the AYCE option, so we had to ask for new menus. I was already annoyed. But then she came back and asked us if we wanted anything to drink and explained how the AYCE worked. She made recommendations on sides to start with. Brought French fries out within five minutes. Made me realize I was just hangry. So I calmed myself down quick. We got the crab legs, crawfish and mixed clams and mussels. I figured the server would come and dump the bag on the table like the other places I've been to, but NO. She came and gave me a metal plate and then did a show presentation to put my food in the plate instead of on the table. I was slightly impressed. But I was even more impressed when I realized how fresh the seafood was. It was not overcooked, not over salty, or undercooked - cooked just right! The Garlic butter was so garlicky and delicious! My friend had the house sauce and that was even tastier! Not too spicy, not too salty, - well made mix! We had three plates each and I was even surprised at myself. We got sides of wings, fried shrimp, fried oysters, corn, sausage, potatoes, and French fries. The Fried Shrimp were surprisingly huge! I was not expecting that. I wish I had more room to eat those, but I was already drowning in crawfish. As good as seafood gets, the cholesterol does spike and the amount of garlic I inhaled was not doing me any good either, but it was a meal well worth it! I would definitely keep this place as a seafood option for when my crawfish craving hits again. Loved the service, how clean the place was, how fast food came out and also how well the seafood was cooked.

Ambience was chill. The music was R&B and they put paper on the table so it's an easy cleanup for the staff. The food was all right. The mac salad had tuna in it. They didn't have teriyaki sauce for the Hawaiian barbecue chicken plate or marinara sauce for the cheese sticks, which is kind of weird. The garlic edamame hit the spot and we got a few sushi rolls, and those were all right as well until the gnats started landing on them.. oh and free refills from the soda fountain.

Awesome place for seafood lovers! They have AYCE and it's great every time! I recommend the house sauce and spicy! Service was quick and food was hot. Thank you staff!

Went here for my husband's 30th birthday. Staff was super friendly and explained the AYCE seafood boil very well. I've never been to a place that had AYCE snow crab legs so that was awesome! The green mussels ARE HUGE, I would go back here just for the mussels alone! Food came out pretty quickly, I highly recommend ordering when you finish your first bowl so you have time to rest. The sides were pretty good you get max 3 sides per order but it's still AYCE. I like how they do it so you're not wasting any food. I'm surprised that this place isn't more packed, it was delicious! The decor and ambiance was very nice, clean place, clean bathrooms, very seafood themed and this place honestly deserves more recognition for $50 AYCE you cannot go wrong! Will definitely be back especially after finding out the owners are the same owners of the Asia buffet it used to be, I used to go here as a kid and I loved it then and I love it now! I told my husband I want to go back here for Mother's Day!

Lemon pepper Fries

We went here for my birthday celebration. We were able to make reservations, which upon arrival we realize there was no reason to do that. There was only three other families in the restaurant. We were seated by a very friendly young lady The menus are colorful very simple for you to be able to choose what you want to order and the food was out in no time There was plenty of food for the two of us. Very delicious. They even have clawmachines at the entrance for a little entertainment A full bar, TVs, and wide open atmosphere We ordered shrimp clams sausage the lemon pepper fries are amazing Definitely would go back there

Nice place to eat and satisfy your "seafood" craving. Location is where the old "Asia Buffet" is.. IYKYK. I ate here with my co-worker and we wanted to try it out. As for the food, you can pick the choice of options on the menu and you can order side dishes too which is also included. New place is clean, even the restrooms. Service was quick and staff was friendly. I will be back soon with my family next time.

AYCE now available! I just love it here. They're consistent, it's quick, it's affordable, staff is friendly, and the food is great. Although they now offer AYCE, I normally choose a la carte. 1/2 lb of shrimp with sausage is all I need. I do think it's a great option for people who love AYCE. This time around I was really hungry and asked for a full lb. but it was too much and we had to ask for to-go boxes. I also tried their lemon pepper fries, delicious! I will continue to come back and I hope I can encourage others to try it out! Another added perk - they added 3 claw machines by the entrance!

Ayce 38$

As a New Orleans native moving down here to Vegas it's hard finding a place that can replicate the quality of seafood that we have. But I can for sure say that Cajun Crackin exceeded my expectation! I felt like I was back at home with how good the food tasted lol. I went at 4pm with my gf on a Friday, and although it was a bit quiet, it was very clean and well kept! Walking in, first thing that caught my eye is how spacious/open it was. We were greeted with a unique fisherman-esque entrance with nets hanging over our heads as well as a shark hanging by the bar. The floor and counters were nice shiny and you can tell they're well cleaned. I got the 38$ ayce option. I for one can eat a lot...but surprisingly the ayce option gave me more than enough, I was suprised. The servers were delightful and were constantly checking up on me and giving me pointers on the menu! I recommend this place if you are pursuing a tasty seafood boil!

The $34 seafood special.
Ken M.

This is my first time here after the place was opened 6 months ago. Arrived mid-afternoon on a weekday. Yes, it was quiet. Only 3 tables occupied. The server said dinner hours and weekends are very busy. I ordered their $34 AYCE seafood special with shrimp, scallops, clams, snow crab, cajun fries, and fried shrimp. Got my bib, plastic gloves, wipes, paper towels, and trash container before being served. The food came prepared just right at the spicy level I chose. The server was super friendly and gave me as much of the seafood as I could hold. There is nothing that could be improved here. You should visit the restroom, too. It was quite nice! Parking could be tight during busy times.

If you're Nina rush be aware food is made fresh . If you can't wait for your food you might want to come when you have a little time and patience. Calamari was chewy . Lobster roll was a cold roll . Not a hot one . I need to learn to real lol . Cocktail sauce was very good . Spring po boy was on point . Place is clean . Service is good and kind . Great place. Humbleness amazing !

We didn't really have definite plans while in town however we knew we had to go to the oyster bar at palace station!!! When we got there, we were pleasantly surprised with a short 30 minute wait!!! If you know, you know - the wait can most times be over an hour and even up to 4 hours! So we were delighted to wait 30 minutes! We all had some variation of the gumbo! I had the house gumbo with crab, shrimp, lobster, sausage and light okra. As per usual, it was outstanding! The female server - can't remember her name, was such a pleasure to talk to. Steve made out gumbo and he made sure to make it just right and it was piping hot when he served it. We met a nice Father and Son - who said they also eat at the bar every time they come to Vegas. My sister mentioned that we were in town to celebrate my birthday and the father kindly took care of my bill. I already know that I love this place and will always come back every time I find myself in Vegas!

It's literally a bar, but it's a pretty cool setup. I ordered a Paloma and it was really, really good. Service was okay, especially considering how busy they were and the limited seating. One thing I appreciated was that even with people waiting, they didn't make us feel rushed to eat and get out. Now the food? Straight BOMB. I'm used to ordering seafood gumbo or a pan roast with lobster and having to search for the actual seafood. Not here! They give you big, beautiful pieces of seafood, and the portions are huge. We made the mistake of ordering our own instead of paying attention to the people around us because we definitely could've shared. And a warning about the oysters: they are HUMONGOUS. Seriously, keep that in mind when deciding how many to order. Between the generous portions, quality seafood, and that Paloma, I can definitely see why there's always a line. Four stars for me!

We arrived for an early dinner --4:30-5p, & were seated promptly --about 5 min., as it was not too busy yet. The vibe was welcoming & friendly, & the ambience very casual & chill, in contrast & irony with the price point for most entrees. This is not meant negatively though: everybody knows fresh seafood is not cheap! Our server was upbeat & informative, explaining the structure of the menu & the all you-can-eat options. Unfortunately, that's where the positive feedback ends. We both opted for the AYCE snow crab, which is served in 1 pound portions in plastic bags. The crab clusters are swimming in whatever sauce is chosen to accompany the legs, of which there are several. You also pick a couple sides with each bag. For my 1st round, I chose the Cajun coconut sauce. Daughter chose the garlic lemon. The sauces were very rich, greasy & salty. There was too much of it, but also, the delicate flavor of the crab was completely dominated & overwhelmed by it. Butter seems to be the 1st ingredient in the sauces; I don't normally complain about butter... but it was SO much, & again so salty. Crab legs are a delicacy that do not require any condiment other than lemon & butter, in my opinion. We could've asked for the crab legs plain. They probably allow that right? But there is no simple lemon/butter option We didn't finish our 2nd bags for these reasons. I felt like I had consumed a stick of butter, & the flavor of the crab legs was lost in the sauce. I started to feel a bit queasy. For that 2nd bag, I chose the "all in" sauce, which is a mix of all the sauces. It wasn't distinguishable from the Cajun coconut. Regarding the sides, I chose corn & sausage w/ the first bag. (They are thrown in to the bag with the legs & sauce. ) Immediately, I knew the corn was a terrible choice. It was water-logged, & covered in sauce. yet flavorless. Over boiled. The sausage was OK: there was exactly 1 bite. We had fries & rice also which were served separately--not in bags. The rice was plain & boring, but that's steamed white. In this context, it was better served plain because again, the overwhelming sauce with the crab legs was more than enough for the palette. The fries were tasty: Crispy & had good flavor. Our service was attentive at first, but became a bit lax eventually. Nothing too bad though.... We had to ask to have our bucket, (for the shells & trash that accumulates during the messy feast) which was overflowing, emptied. I also had to flag down a server for refills on our drinks. It is worth noting that the first round of drinks,, (water for my daughter, Diet Coke for me) was fine: Water tasted good,, & both drinks were cold & refreshing.. My Diet Coke had adequate carbonation, which is not always the case at restaurants! Upon her first sip of the 2nd glass of water, my daughter's face scrunched up, & she looked appalled. She said, " Mom, taste this water. Something's wrong with it. It doesn't taste right. It's gotta be tap water or something...." So I did. I've lived in Vegas for 30 years & I've had all kinds of water here, including the city's tap water, though I don't consume it regularly. This was worse than any tap water I've tasted in any city. I don't think it was tap water--at least not the kind that comes out of my tap at home. I don't know what it was. Dirty dish water or dirty fish water? It was not consumable. We asked for a replacement & received drinkable water once again. We both decided we would not return to Crab 'n Spice. The water was a one-time fluke I'm sure. Even though the service fell off a bit over the course of the meal, it was not below-average, & I liked the friendly server. There's only one reason we will not be patronizing the restaurant again: Sauce. Too much. Too greasy. Too salty. The check was a bit more than most everyday family-style restaurants, but it was not unreasonable considering we both had the "AYCE" crab legs. In fact, it was about the same as what we would've paid for 2 entrees & side almost anywhere. So price is not a factor in not going back. We had a good time and don't regret going. We had to try it out. Based on the crowd that was there by the time we left, we must be in a minority in not savoring the saucy meal style. I would have given 3 stars but the nasty water served to my daughter took away a star.
