This review is a little long overdue. I visited on a quiet Wednesday night, and I was honestly surprised by how empty the restaurant was. I mean it may have been one other couple in the restaurant. The price point of the food seems to match the quality, and overall, I thought the food was decent. Our waiter was very kind and provided good service. They did make a mistake with my order. I ordered Dungeness crab but received snow crab legs instead. They did remake the order, which I appreciated. Where I think they could really improve is the drinks. Unfortunately, the margarita I ordered was TRASH, and I definitely wouldn't order another one. I also think adding more specials or promotions could help bring in more customers, especially on slower nights. I'd be willing to give them another try because there were some positives, but there are definitely a few areas that could use some improvement. read more

One of my go-to spots in Vacaville! I can always count on fresh, quality food. Service can vary depending on the time you go. My regular order is the first combo--clams, shrimp, and crawfish tossed in the house special sauce, medium spicy. On a hot day they do not put the ac on sometimes it's hot in the restaurant... they mainly just keep the front door open. read more

I love the crab boils, the snow crab legs and sausage are my favorites. The fried okra was good too. We ordered fried okra, garlic bread, gumbo, and a combo with snow crab legs, head off shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage. Service can be slow at times but the food was fresh and hot. I've dined here twice and will be back. read more

Was craving a seafood boil, so my husband and I decided to come here for dinner. We've been here a couple of times before and always enjoy it! When we walked in, the restaurant was about one-third full. There was no wait, but we did stand there for a few minutes before being greeted and seated. Not a huge deal, just something we noticed. We usually order one of their Signature Combos with a side of white rice and Cajun fries (because you have to soak up that sauce ). This time, we went with Combo #1 -- one pound of clams and two pounds of head-on shrimp -- and got the house special sauce in medium. After we ordered, our server brought out lemons, salt and pepper, bibs, and gloves -- which we definitely appreciated because seafood boils can get messy! Our fries came out first, then shortly after the seafood, and then the white rice. Everything was hot and fresh when it arrived. The house special sauce had that perfect balance of buttery, garlicky, and a light kick. I will say the levels of spice is not consistent here - as the medium was just a light kick (felt more like a mild spice to me). The shrimp were juicy, the clams were yummy, and it fully satisfied the craving. Unfortunately, there was only one server working, which made getting additional items a bit of a longer wait (definitely not her fault!). She truly did her best to check in on us and keep things moving. Overall, this is a good place to get your seafood boil craving satisfied! read more

Cajun Crack'n has got to be my favorite seafood boil spot--not only because of their prices, but also because of their incredible flavors. While we were in the Vacaville area, I couldn't resist stopping by to try it. For a Saturday, it was surprisingly not crowded at all. There were only two other tables, and this is a pretty big restaurant! I imagine most people were busy with Super Bowl events in San Francisco, San Jose, or Santa Clara. My boyfriend and I ordered Combo #1 - 3 lbs of shrimp, House Special, mild. They were kind enough to give me a side of spicy sauce. One thing I really appreciated: they serve the boil on a big platter if you choose, instead of leaving it in the bag. This prevents the shrimp from continuing to cook in the bag, which avoids overcooking and makes peeling much easier--definitely a plus! I also ordered the Blue Hawaiian drink from the happy hour menu. Our server kindly informed me that happy hour is Monday-Friday only, and the drink would be full price. I told her, "Oh, thank you for telling me. I'll still take one!" and she was so sweet about it. Overall, the food was delicious, as always. I do wish the server had checked in more often, as we had to flag her down a couple of times, but she was attentive and helpful whenever we needed anything--for us or other tables. Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving a flavorful seafood boil! read more

Our group of 12 came to celebrate a birthday for our friend who passed away a long time ago. We had a last minute change to this venue and so thankful that we were able to get a table. Our server was able to take our orders so we could chat and reminiscing about our friend and catch up with each other. Hubby and I ordered the garlic noodles, shrimp basket and soft shell crab po boy. Our server was attentive and checked on us frequently. Our food came out and my bast was good. I really liked the garlic noodles (add lemon to it!), the sweet potato fries were so good and my shrimp was lightly breaded and good. Hubby and I didn't really like the soft shell crab po boy but it was edible. I would like to try the other stuff on the menu next time though. We had a great time. read more

First time trying this place today 3/21. Arrived at 6:45pm and was seated in 2-3 minutes. The place was not very crowded and it still had lots of available seats. As we sat at our table, Our server Larrisa was very nice and welcoming. The service was unorganized tho. The service needs more structure. Nothing wrong with Larrisa but the servers that brought our food didn't know which table to bring to. They asked questions from about 2-3 tables before bringing the food to our table. Our food did arrive but our appetizer didn't until we were done. Also I asked for Lemon Pepper wings and they ran out of lemon pepper seasoning! Huh??? They gave us Cajun season wings. So, We ask just to take the wings home and bring the check. Seafood in a bag! Excellent Shrimp Po Boy! Good Cajun Wings...Needs Cajun seasoning duh. Will we come back? Our course. But I think I'll wait a little while until servers are organized. Larrisa almost got 20 percent tip read more

First , this was my first time eating at this restaurant and location. We tried the gumbo, one snow crab cluster catfish n fries , shrimp fried rice and a side of garlic butter n Cajun seasoning . This food is absolutely horrifyingly nasty . The catfish looked and tasted like it was fried twice in old grease it did not look fresh . The shrimp fried rice is ok no flavor whatsoever . The gumbo was nasty and had no flavor no seasoning , I know it's not the south but it's basically god awful. I paid for a side of garlic butter and received 1/2 container filled with butter and basically just chopped garlic in it. The food is mediocre at best and not worth the prices . Oh the snow crab was good it slid right out the shell . Other than that I have two stars because the order was prepared timely . read more

So I'll start with the good! Our seafood boil came out piping hot - we ordered 1/2 lb shrimp and 1 lb crawfish, garlic butter, mild. And it was good... honestly didn't expect much because crawfish is usually frozen, but the taste wasn't bad. The fried okra was surprisingly good and the calamari rings were ok. They gave us bibs, disposable gloves, lemons, salt&pepper, and disposable utensils. It's gonna be a messy time eating...so I get it! The staff was friendly and checked in a few times. The place was empty on a Sunday afternoon with about 4 other tables sat. The OK: We were sat in a back corner, where we couldn't see the TVs. Normally I wouldn't mention it, but there were 3 other families there so it was a little weird to not be sat in the lighted areas. There was also what seemed like only 2 waitresses and it took a good 10 minutes for ours to visit us to say hello. It just seemed a little off for 5% capacity. Lastly, water. The first waters she brought out tasted fine! It was the second water refill that tasted like soap or something. I stopped drinking it. The price is what brought us here, compared to other places. read more

First time here. My friend wanted to come here for her bday so be it. The seafood boil was tasty per my friend's opinion and she's a picky eater. I ordered the fried catfish plate but I don't think the fish was fresh . It saggy and no flavor , but the fries that comes with it was good. The service was good despite they short on people per our waitress. The place is huge and clean, plenty of parking space read more

If you have a seafood craving come here. Little pricey but the quality has always been the same. Fresh oysters, Oyster and Shrimp Po'boys sandwiches, Garlic Noodles, and their fries- sweet potato fries are my favorite! They also do Fried Okra, would definitely be back! Great place for a party, lots of seating, food is always fresh and made fast, definitely will be back! read more

We came here on a Saturday and were greeted by friendly staff and no wait time. The ambiance of this place is very nice, clean, bright and welcoming. The tables are really spacious and the menus have a lot to offer. Our server was very friendly however I think she was the only server for the entire restaurant. Wait times took awhile for us to order, her to check in on us and we had to wave her down to pay our tab and ask for boxes. Other than that, the food (the crab boils we ordered) were amazing. Very flavorful and yummy. Our drinks came in to go cups and my husband's friend rice came on a paper plate so not sure what that's all about. We would come again despite the things mentioned. read more

I always love coming here the food is always hot and delicious. The staff is very friendly and sweet, can't wait to come back!

I won't go back here again. Bag O Crab tastes so much better and their service is better there too. First time ordering from here and I order quite a bit of food to go. They handed me a bag and said it was all there but it wasn't. I had to get off the freeway and go back for the rest. And when I picked up the remainder of my order the lady didn't even apologize for the mistake. I'm thinking she could be a manager, blonde lady with her hair up. Lousy food and lousy customer service. read more

I love their hot fried rice and shrimp and lemon pepper chicken wings also the hot links with the rice

I really wanted to enjoy this dinner (it was my first time here), but the way a serious issue was handled left me disappointed. I found a hard metal object in my garlic noodles (something stiff and bendable that felt like it could have been a staple or a piece of steel scrubber). I caught it in my mouth before swallowing, which was very alarming. If you've seen an old news report about a woman going to the hospital to get a steel bristle removed from her throat, you'd understand how scary this was. What bothered me most wasn't just the object itself, but how it was handled. The food runner (who first came by) apologized, which I appreciated. But after that, the server and 2 other workers (possibly the manager and owner) came by and none of them acknowledged what happened or offered a simple apology. They simply checked in to see if we got a fresh batch of garlic noodles. The dish was replaced, but it was still left on the bill. Situations like this are about more than just replacing food. A little accountability and care go a long way. Even something as simple as: "We take great pride in following safety standards, but tonight we fell short. We'll take this off your bill; please enjoy a fresh dish on us." That kind of response would have completely changed how this felt. I understand that mistakes can happen anywhere, but how you respond matters just as much. I hope the team takes this seriously moving forward (for both food safety and customer trust) because imagine if I swallowed that metal object and had to go to the ER and now the restaurant is liable for my medical bills. Just something to think about. read more

Where have you been in a seafood boil place that's spacious. This place is it especially for large parties. There's plenty of room for you and your family. You can stretch out your arms while your workin them crab legs lol. Food is a 10/10 so far I have no complaints on the taste not bland it's always served hot. Drinks are always refilled. Service is also a 10/10 no bad experience at all. One thing I would note though is their bathroom I wish it's maintained I see fingerprints everywhere and couple times their hand towel is not refilled. read more

The Shrimp was small, flavor was okay. Garlic noodles were thin noodles & over cooked. I won't be coming again Definitely not the best to get seafood boil. Over all costumer service was great the girl helping me was super sweet & attentive but food was gross. read more

Clean and big establishment. Our waitress was very attentive and kept stopping by to ask how we were doing and if we needed anything. The catfish basket was crispy and tasty. It came with ranch, tartar, and ketchup sauces. We got the seafood boil combo #1 with 1 pound clams and 2 pounds head off shrimp with their house special sauce in medium spicy. I felt the medium spice was just spicy enough to enjoy the meal and I love spicy food. I felt like the leftovers overnight tasted better the next day when the flavors could soak into the boil. read more

My go to place when i'm craving for crabs and other seafoods! Love their house special sauce.

For your quick crab boil fix in Vacaville, come to Cajun crack'n. Their portions are huge! We got the specialty sauce, mild and appreciated that the shrimp was nice and plump. They calamari and Cajun curly fries are what and how you would expect and they are served with ranch and cocktail sauce. I love how open the restaurant is and how quickly the food comes out. I asked for some gloves to peel my shrimp because i didn't want to irritate the small cuts on my palms and my eczema. I love how they give you lemon and salt and pepper to make your own dipping sauce. I would definitely come back. read more

First time ever going here with my girlfriend. We ordered the fried oyster basket with the Cajun fries. Very fresh and tasty with the perfect batter. We got the combo #2 with Dungeness crab and shrimp and clams, with the house sauce. The seafood was very fresh and tasty and easy to peel. The seasoning had a really tasty flavor but it was a little oily. Service needs improvement. There was only 1 server during the time we went. But the food made up for the service. The place very huge.They can seat big parties. The lighting and the decor are very nice. Definitely recommend going read more

Worst service I've ever had at a restaurant. This is my second review because they took my first one down. So not only are they getting bad reviews taken down but the food was horrible. We waited forever, other people waited even longer. The bathrooms were disgusting. There was someone rolling a giant green trash can around full of garbage "cleaning" up tables and everytime it rolled by the whole place smelled even worse. (Totally ruins your appetite smelling rotten garbage) The service was abysmal, multiple different "waitresses" came to our table, some asking the same questions we had literally just answered. But still we couldn't even get a refill on drinks when they were emptied. Will never go again. Pick anywhere else if you're going to spend your hard earned money read more

Came here to celebrate a birthday. We ordered the Cajun fries and a seafood boil with shrimp and crab legs. The seafood boil comes with corn sausage and potatoes. We ordered both Cajun sauce and garlic sauce for our bag. The fries were ok although there was nothing Cajun about them they were just regular fries. I wish the garlic sauce had more garlic flavor to it because it felt like our sauce was more Cajun and missing the garlic flavor. I wished there was more sausage in the boil as there was only enough for 2 of us and more crab as other seafood boil spots I've been to give you more crab for the same price. Overall the food was good and I'd come back for a seafood boil. read more

I ordered a shrimp basket with Cajun fries. Nothing special about it. The shrimp were very well cooked. The space was drafty and I was barely greeted to pick up my phone order. I love seafood so I am sure I will return for a boil which is probably their more focused dishes. Don't get me wrong about the shrimp but honestly I only wanted them because I wanted to dip them in Canes remoulade sauce since that's what my teenager wanted and I don't do chicken. Lol. All my fries were wasted. Let's see what my next review will be like. read more

New favorite spot for your Cajun Seafood cravings!! Came here on a Friday for lunch and it was not pack. We were seated immediately and was given water and menus. Service was a little bit slow but I guess it's understandable since I only seen 3 employees running the place while we were there. Our server was nice and attentive. This location has a lot of parking spots, and interior was nice and lots of natural lighting! For appetizers I got steamed oysters with house special sauce and it was BOMB. I'd go back for these oysters! There are different sauces option to choose from. And I also got the combo #1 with 1lb clams, 1lb mussels, and 1lb head off shrimp (extra charge) this includes 2 corns, potatoes and sausages with house special sauce and medium spicy level. Loved the flavor of my seafood, everything was just right and not so oily unlike other cajun seafood places (not mentioning names lol) They also serve macaron ice cream but wasn't able to get some because I was too full but will definitely come back again. read more

I went to this restaurant for the first time on Saturday, November 15, 2025. The place itself was spacious and cute. We were seated quickly. My daughter and I both ordered soup, the Cajun chowder and the gumbo soup with rice. Both soups were surprisingly delicious but they were served to us in to-go bowls which I found strange as we were dining in. We ordered the appetizer wings - Cajun flavored and lemon pepper. The wings came out piping hot. Unfortunately, however, BOTH flavors were NASTY because both flavored wings had sugar added to them which made them weird colored (the oil burned the sugar) and they were sweet instead of golden brown and delicious! I was completely turned off and didn't finish the order nor did I order anything else! The response from our server was nonchalant and she acted like there was nothing wrong with the wings! Nevertheless, the next time I'm in Vacaville I will not be going to Cajun Crack'n again.....EVER! read more

My usual time here is well spent unfortunately on the night of April 28. I had the worst experience I attempted to call. Tried to place an order or see if it'll be OK for me to come in and get an order to go upon opening the door, I was told that the kitchen closed 10 minutes early. Which is understandable if that would've been stated online or someone able to answer a phone call to let me know that before driving 18 minutes away . They had no courtesy or empathy for the route I took to your establishment. I probably will never be at this location again. read more
