    I really wanted to like this spot, but we probably won't be coming back anytime soon. We love the Milpitas location and assumed all locations offered the same drinks. We were disappointed to find out this one doesn't offer micheladas or Coke Zero (only Diet), both of which the Milpitas location offers. Service was also frustrating. We came in for a Friday lunch and they weren't busy, yet it took a while for anyone to acknowledge us and seat us. Even getting our order in was difficult because our server rarely came by. There were only a few other tables and three servers total, so it didn't make sense. We had to wave multiple times just to get someone's attention. The biggest issue was when we ordered 3 lunch shrimp boils and added 1/2 lb of extra sausage. Each lunch is supposed to come with 1 corn, 2pcs sausage, 2 pcs potatoes, and 1 boiled egg. Naturally, we assumed ordering 3 lunches would mean three orders of all of that, and one of the bags would have the extra sausage. Instead, they put all the shrimp into one bag. Ok fine but then we noticed we only had 1 corn when we should've had 3 in there. Once we noticed we were short on corn, we realized we were short on everything else too, with 2 pcs potatoes, and 1 egg in the entire bag. When we brought it up, our server said we should have specified that we wanted three separate bags. That didn't make sense to us. We've ordered the same way at the Milpitas location and received 3 separate bags with all the included items in each. Even if they combined everything into one bag, it doesn't explain why we were missing sides or why we would want less sides. She did say she'd bring out the missing items, but again, it was difficult to get her attention. The servers were mostly standing behind the counter instead of checking on tables. We also noticed their lunch pricing varies depending on shrimp head-on or head-off, which is different from the other location (they charge the same for either) and the Stockton location is slightly more expensive for lunch too..maybe b/c they add an egg? The egg was also over boiled and almost grey inside (you know what I'm talking about!) The yolk just crumbled. The sauce though was consistent and that's what we love about Cajun Crackin. Same great flavor. Overall, we wanted to give this location a chance, but between the slow service, the pushback on what should have been a straightforward order, and the limited drink options, it just didn't leave a good impression.

    This place is decent. I've been here a couple of times before and didn't really care for it, but this time I switched up the sauce and went with the garlic butter with lemon pepper. I can finally say it was 4 out of 5. Next time, I'll probably order the "Burn My Tongue" level because I love my food really spicy...like really spicy. I definitely enjoy bold heat. The service was decent as well. I just wish our server had come back to check on us a couple more times because it was a little hard to get her attention. I needed a few extra lemons, and it took a while to ask. Other than that, everything was good overall.

    This place was surprisingly good. Staff is really friendly and food comes out fairly quickly and piping hot. Favorite is definitely the catfish and gumbo. You do get a ton of food in the seafood boil. I've eaten here twice and it's been good both times.

    Love that this place has good flavor in their sauces. Combo specials are always a hit for me since I like different varieties.

    This was good

    I finally tried it with my granddaughter yesterday. Her favorite restaurant is Captain Crab, so I thought we would try this to compare. The young lady who sat us at our table was very friendly and complimented us on what we were wearing. She said our server will be by shortly. It was a little busy, so our server took almost 10 minutes to take our order. She was not as nice as the lady that seated us, but she took our order. It was happy hour at 3pm so I ordered the gumbo and calamari for $5.50 each. I liked them both. I also ordered the seafood combo #2 boil with Dungeness crab, deveined shrimp & clams. It only came with 1 crab cluster instead of 2, like Captain Crab. The boil included a piece of corn, hard boiled eggs, potatoes and 4 pieces of sausage. I got Cajun and garlic butter sauce with medium heat. My granddaughter loves hers spicy so I ordered a spicy one for her on the side which came in a small ketchup container. It didn't have butter so she had to mix it with some butter from the boil onto her plate. I thought the sauce was very good! It had lots, and I mean lots of garlic in it, which I loved. It wasn't overly salted like sometimes Captain Crabs could be. The seafood was about the same as CC's. Overall, I liked the taste of the food, but they should include 2 clusters of Dungeness instead of 1. I'd give it another try, but I liked the potion better at CC's and my granddaughter still likes CC's better.

    It was my family's first time trying this Cajun seafood restaurant! We love a good seafood boil, so we had high hopes. We were very impressed with the service and the food itself. The staff are so attentive and the restaurant is nicely decorated. The shrimp and muscles were cooked just right, the mild sauce had the perfect kick without over doing it and loved the garlic chunks in the sauce. Highly recommend if you're not willing to drive out of town for a seafood boil restaurant.

    The food was great. We got wings & fries 10/10 the wings were fried to perfection. I got one of the 30$ specials and it was definitely worth it. The garlic noodles were good. I like they the noodles were thin and had so much garlic. The service was great the waitress was so attentive. The ambience was cute and relaxing. The music was a little loud but we were there for food

    We came on a Saturday night for dinner. They are in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking but it is very dark. No lights There were only a couple of tables so we got right in. Pretty basic menu you pick which combo of seafood you want and then you pick your sauce and spice level. We picked the special sauce which is the combo of all 4 and mild heat. Sadly the mild was spicy. There is a lot of garlic in their sauce. A robot brought our drinks which was fun and our server was very nice. I would just say that with the flavor and heat level we would not return. If you love garlic and spice then you would probably like it.

    My annual tradition is going to The Crab Zone for my birthday. The Crab Zone is one of the original…read morecrab restaurants in Stockton before others started popping up here and there. I've tried most of them and they just can't match the creamy garlic butter sauce on the crab that The Crab Zone has perfected. I always order the Dungeness crab (garlic butter of course) and my daughter ordered the traditional and zesty, Spicy Cajun sauce. I have to say, the crabs were pretty good in size, very meaty and very tasty. We ordered the fried calamari for an appetizer which tasted freshly made. We both ordered the peach lemonade that had fresh pieces of chopped peaches in the drink. Very tasty. The crab comes with choices of corn, potatoes and sausage that you expect in a crab boil. The hot link sausage is my favorite. I also ordered a side order of the garlic noodles. I love garlic noodles but these are a little thin and dry and don't preserve as well when cooled down. I would love to try the shrimp, mussels and clams but the crab was more than enough. The service is spectacular. The owner is so nice. Her kindness makes her my secret crush....but let's just keep that between us. The ambience is trendy, sporty, divey -just perfect for the locals and regulars. They were playing a nice soundtrack and had the World Cup playing on the tv. While everything about The Crab Zone is spectacular - the Dungeness crab is a bit pricey. $250 was the price tag (not including tip) and about $40 more than last year. But no complaints because The Crab Zone is delicious.

    To be honest, I haven't been here in years because I was never a fan of their seafood boil sauce…read more Saw their instagram recently and decided to give it a try again. Garlic noodles - 5/10 too plain. If they add the garlic sauce from the Cajun wings, that would definitely elevate the whole dish! Cajun wings - 7/10 it was good with the garlic sauce that's came on it Crawfish - 10/10 they were big and tasted fresh! Shrimp - 9/10 head on shrimps were really big! Lots of flavor. My only dislike was the sauce. Extremely too watery for my liking. The spice level is there, and the flavor is there in the boil water. I am more of a saucy, Cajun, garlicky person. Overall... Service was great. Vibes are cool inside. Thank you Crab Zone!

    Sounds like a local fav for the older set out here in Stockton. It's in a somewhat nicer/more…read moreupscale shopping complex. They've been around for over 30 years so that's a statement on its own. Place is big (lots of seating), bright with natural light. Service casual with a nice wine/cocktail menu, cloth napkins and bread service. The early evening visit I went was super quiet and it seemed like the servers knew all the regulars in there. I like that vibe. Glass of Pinot Gris ($10/4.5*) Anytime I travel around and dine I try find if a local wine is available. I saw they had this unique white wine from a Lodi winery so I immediately went with that. Cool, crisp, slight stone fruit aroma with a minerally finish. Love those traits in a white wine with seafood. Cajun Shrimp ($20/3.5*) Upon arrival for the price I initially thought it was an iffy portion for the price. 6 smallish shrimps (1 n a half bites per shrimp). Very simply prepared, grilled lightly with just a smidge of cajun seasoning then served with 2 sauces (a cocktail and tartar). But as I ate these, I did start to like them more and more. The seasoning was not bold but did work well with the grill flavor. And a dab of creamy tartar sauce complimented the spiced-grill flavor nicely, and it paired super nice with the pinot gris. These ended up being better than I had initially perceived. Clam Chowder (4.5*) I chose a cup of chowder as it comes with an entree. A salad can also be had if you wanted. But I found their chowder to be quite ideal. Perfect creamy texture without being too thick and stodgy, and great presence of potatoes and tender clams. The flavor could be more briny/clam-y but that's just my preference. Great with a dab of Tabasco and a dip from their hearty table bread. Snapper Filet ($24/4*) Thin filet seasoned very mildly if any at all. Chose for it to be grilled versus fried or sauted. But you have choices here which I applaud. But it was so mild that I took a half pat of butter and melted it on top of the filet, sprinkled with salt and a squeeze of lemon. Totally amped up the dish. Next time I think I'll try a more involved dish like a seafood pasta. Served with nicely steamed veggies and red potatoes which I find comforting with simple seafood. Too full for dessert and their offerings did look promising. I visit my retired aunt and uncle in this town a couple times per year. I think I'm gonna include this place as part of our options for dining outs. See ya again Bud's, well played.

    Service: 3.8 = attentive & friendly Food: 2.2 = unseasoned…read more Wife not feeling well, but she still needed to work; so ended up driving her around for work. Lunch time so she chooses Bud's a long standing restaurant located in the Lincoln Center. Walking in and looking around, you get that old school vibe where a more mature crowd would dine for lunch and talk business. We were greeted and sat immediately, followed by waitress coming by to take our drink order. We placed our order: Fish & Chips (no coleslaw) for me and my wife chose the catfish platter. Restaurant provided bread (supposedly sourdough but couldn't tell by smell or taste) and butter prior to our meal. Food arrives and my fish looked (like fish sticks) & smelled like something out of a frozen box, luckily after a bite the fish was fresh but unseasoned. And because it was unseasoned, the only thing I could taste was the lemon I squeezed on top. My fries were salted which helped . My wife had a nice piece of fried catfish that was unseasoned too with steamed veggies and a side of rice that was very dry. Our waitress kept tabs on us during stay which was probably the highlight of our visit. Not sure if this was an off day for their kitchen but when a staple like Fish & Chips at a seafood restaurant is excused poorly IMO then it's time to go back to the drawing board and hold the kitchen to a higher standard.
