We came in late evening. The place was empty just 2 tables filled. The ambiance of the restaurant is simple nothing fancy. We ordered the Combo A and B As well as the shrimp garlic noodles Adding sausage, potatoes and corn is an extra charge. Would recommend this place it was simply good. read more

I had THEE best time at Cajun House. It was a last minute pick after the museum and god was it a good pick. We had a SPREAD. Lemon pepper chicken wings, garlic noodles with shrimp and links, bowls of rice, sangria, and not pictured are fries. We enjoyed everything, and that's a rarity for us. I completely recommend this place. Garlic noodles were We were seated quickly and the server was amazing. I forgot her name but we loved her. She was funny and was holding it down! read more

One of the best seafood boils I've ever had. I went yesterday and it was amazing the clams, mussels, and shrimp were insane. The Cajun and lemon pepper sauces were the greatest, hella bussin. Shoutout to the sweet young Asian waiter who was super kind and walked me through all the different options. I went with a friend, we had a great time, and we cleaned our plates. Loved the vibe of the restaurant. Highly recommend! if you dont eat here you gon get walked up on, plus however rates it 1star read more

Cajun House - greatness - Cajun/Creole Near Me - San Francisco, California

We came an hour after opening on a Monday. Right upon entering the place gave off sort of a bar vibe with the low lights. We were the only people in there, so we got helped pretty much immediately (online menu kind of sucked, but expected nowadays). We ended up ordering these items and got it pretty fast since we were the only ones there. - 1 1/2 pound Head on Shrimp mild spice with the House Cajun and Garlic Butter Sauce w/ 6 sausages (3/5) - Garlic Noodles (3.5/5 but 5/5 with the sauce) - 1/2 Sweet Potato Fries 1/2 Cajun Fries (5/5) The star of the show was by far and away the fries. The fries were super crispy and actually tasted like some fresh potatoes. We were kind of disappointed with the sauce. We expected more, but it was pretty bland and tasted mainly like butter. There also was pretty much no spice which was fine. The sausage had more flavor than the sauce and had a nice kick to it. The garlic noodles were pretty good, but mixed with the sauce took it to a whole different level. We're thinking maybe the sauce combo we had made it bland, but we hope to go here again and try the House Cajun and Lemon Pepper sauce with medium spice level. The butter was too much from the Garlic Butter and hope for more flavor with the medium spice. This place is decent for the area, but would much rather go to SJ or East Bay for one of the better seafood boils if I had the chance. Overall this place has some pretty solid food, but kind of underwhelming if you're expecting a good seafood boil sauce. read more

First time trying seafood boil, and I love it. The sauce is very good, especially with rice. We ordered combo A for 2 people. I liked the clams the most then mussels then the shrimp. The shrimp didn't soak up the sauce as well as the others. The corn was delicious too, especially with the sauce. My friend liked the sausages too. The cajun fries were addicting! read more

Overall experience disappointed me enough to go out of my way to leave this review. Now, I adore seafood boil so this was disheartening. We came in at 6:45-7; we ordered cajun fries, a seafood combo, garlic noodles, & some steamed rice. Canjun fries to start, was the only thing that tasted good. Garlic noodles were bland and consistency was too soft; I expected from the reviews stating "stand-out" garlic noodles it would taste exceptional, but instead they're noodles with a whisper of garlic. The seafood boil was probably the worst. They definitely gave us the scraped leftovers of the pot, poured in boiling water, and called it a day. ABSOLUTELY NO FLAVOR. We kept trying to dig into the bag and giving it an absurd amount of chances to eventually discover better flavor using all my faith, only to be left so dissatisfied. It was supposed to be a mix of Canjun and Garlic Butter flavor, but the better description compares to orange water with chopped vegetable bits. No richness, no gloves given, flavor and viscosity similar to water, and the seafood definitely wasn't fresh either as it caused our stomachs to feel pretty sick after. I felt so shocked I experienced a seafood boil that could hold no flavor especially when you consider all the seasonings and preparation that goes into it. I left feeling sad having to pay for an inadequate dinner. read more

I tried calling in to place a pickup order... and after nine calls with no answer, I gave up. Decided to DoorDash it for pickup instead. Forty-five minutes later, I roll in, and there's the lady just standing there. At that point, I couldn't help but wonder: if you were free enough to stare into space, could you maybe have answered the phone? Anyway, I grab my order and head home. The garlic noodles? Barely any garlic flavor, and the noodles were stuck together like they were holding on for dear life. I ordered one mild and one spicy -- except they both tasted the same: SPICY AS H*LL. And this is coming from someone with a high spice tolerance. The shrimp? Way too soft, almost mushy. And some of the clams came with just the shell -- like a cruel little seafood prank. But the chicken wings hit. Austin Yee read more

The preggo wifey was craving Cajun one day and was like "BRUH we have never gone to Cajun House since living here for a decade, and every time I bring it up, you say 'nah'. If its not the time to go there now mid-pregnancy with mid-CRAVE, then idk what life is." So we got the green light, finally. And I must say, if you're local and craving Cajun, then invite folks from outta City to eat here. My circle of people always be going to Cajun spots around East Bay or SJ. And they're all good but I say its worth for them to come INTO the City to bring that economy this way. Why is it worth it? FRIED RICE AND GARLIC NOODLE OPTIONS. and other choices. I feel like this spot has got some history to it too. The outside is sick af. The service is VERY ATTENTIVe. The ambiance is like there's some booths and tables with the classic Asian dark wooden panels that make it look like you in a restaurant in Rush Hour. read more

The garlic butter shrimp with corn and sausage is the usual go to order consisting of large shrimps. The current price for one pound of shrimp or clams is $23. The basil clams were surprisingly good combination. Clams had lots of pieces in there and there wasn't any loose pieces. French fries and sweet potatoes fries are a must buy. The Cajun seasoning is better on the chicken wings than the fries. If you're not a fan of seafood, there is garlic noodles and Cajun fried rice with diced Louisiana hot links. Garlic bread is made with fresh bread, and there is a generous amount of garlic to dip into your sauce. They provide gloves and buckets to put your shells. Staff was attentive to our needs asking how we liked the food or any additions to our current course. They have a couple big tables for parties of 6 or more. This would be a good place to have dinner and watch the game on their TV. Tip: order the Thai tea. the owner makes it from loose leaf instead of the powder for a more fragrant tea flavor. read more

Boiling Crab (BC) is still my favorite but when I don't feel like driving to the South Bay, I'll come here. I'm not a fan of their combo sauce. I was hoping for something like BC's whole shabang sauce but it had more spices. Partners family loves it though. I got the garlic butter and it was good though I'd like more garlic in it. Cajun fries are decent but won't order again. Garlic noodles are good and I prefer them over Thanh Long. read more

Overall, it's really hard to find a seafood boil in SF; most places are in Easy Bay or South Bay. However, this one definitely helps fight the cravings! Went here to celebrate my birthday dinner on a weekday night. We went an hour and a half before closing, and the restaurant was empty, except for the staff. We ordered the: - Seafood Combo B (1/2lb Shrimp, 1/2lb Clam, 1/2lb Mussel, 1/2 Dungeness Crab Legs) + non-spicy - Gumbo Food was pretty good and fast! It isn't my favorite cajun place, but it definitely helped curb the craving when we didn't want to drive out to another city to eat. I DEFINITELY ate that entire boil on my own and did not hesitate to because it was so tasty and had a good ratio of seafood. I would rate it at 3.5/5 for taste, how quickly the food was prepared for us, and how nice the staff was. The waitress kindly provided us: a table with paper lining on top, gloves, and a bucket to put the seafood shells in. For the restaurant, it was fairly small with a TV playing soccer. No other patrons but me and my friend, but it wasn't awkward at all; it felt very nice to have a quieter space to eat. TLDR; I would go here if you don't want to drive out to other cities and just want to curb the craving. However, if you're looking to impress your friends for BEST tasting seafood, I would drive to Boiling Crab or even further: Crab N Spice. read more

I love seafood boil and Cajun House is one of my go to in the Bay Area. Whenever I go, I get the garlic noodles, mixed vegetables (sautéed in garlic) and one of the combos depending on what I'm in the mood for. The sauce I usually get is the House Cajun and Garlic Butter (medium spice). Such a GOOOOOOOD combination! All of the staff are always so welcoming, friendly, and helpful! read more

I ordered food from here on Father's Day. They cut the snow crabs in half and sell it to you at a high price. The food had no flavor.

The garlic noodles are super good. I recommend this place to anyone that likes cajon style food

I love Cajun house. Anytime I have a craving for Cajun food and crawfish, I come here. Ben and Wendy are amazing and have great sauces. Typically come here for crawfish, but when it's not in season, I come for crab, clams, and shrimp. Always order the gumbo and broccolini or cauliflower. Always chooses house Cajun. Place is small with only a few workers. So be patient. And make reservations if you can. read more

Oh my god! I've never enjoyed a dining experience more. When I walked in I was greeted by the sweetest and most friendly face ;) The waitress seated me politely and served me the most scrumptious, flavorful, rich seafood bowl. Furthermore, the owner, was delightful to talk to. The ambiance was amazing, the mood lighting is delectable for a calm eating experience. I am bewildered by the amazing music choices! I enjoyed the restaurant overall. Would recommend! read more

This place is top notch when it comes to food and service. Ben and Wendy were amazing. We even had them take shots with us, not too many since there were working and we were their last customers of the night. We brought a cake and gave it to Wendy to surprise our friend for her birthday, wendy was funny because she actually told the birthday girl about the cake when we were discussing the menu. Now for the food. The garlic noodles, were perfect. Al dente, the flavor so amazing and the garlic and butter well balanced. The mussels in fresh basil surprised me since I didn't think it would be one of my favorites of the night. We ordered lemon pepper chicken wings, who does that at a Cajun restaurant?! We do! It was better than some wing places that I have been, the only caveat is that I wished we asked for extra crispy. The two crabs we ordered had the "butter" inside, which was so silky smooth, unfortunately I had to share with others. The shrimps were not over cooked and were not chewy but tender just the way I like them. We also had oysters that were fresh and had a slight salty flavor. My mouth is watering just thinking of this dinner. Can't wait to go back with good friends. read more

What a gem! From the moment we walked in, the service was welcoming and attentive. We tried the seafood combo C, and it was incredible! It came with garlic noodles that were so delicious!! Perfectly seasoned with that Cajun flavor and just the right amount of spice, we added also garlic butter. The shrimp and crab were super fresh, and the garlic butter sauce was so delicious we ended up dipping everything in it! The portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable for the quality and flavor you get. If you're craving authentic Cajun seafood in San Francisco, this is the spot! We'll definitely be back soon. read more

I LOVE Cajun House! Everytime I have had it, the meal was bursting with flavor, and the portion size was incredibly generous-- you definitely get your bang for your buck. I have ordered here three times through Uber eats, after the first time I got it I ordered it again the next day because it was SOOOOOO good. The third time I had it was because my boyfriend was visiting town and I HAD TO HAVE HIM TRY IT. So far I have had their crawfish boil and seafood combo A with their house Cajun sauce. BOTH SOOO AMAZING!! Not overcooked, delicious sauce, the seafood was juicy, and it came to my house still hot! I have yet to actually go to the restaurant because I've been super busy with school, but the interaction I have had with the restaurant when it came to asking questions through the Uber eats app or phone call has always been great. They are sweet people and I love supporting a small family business I am also somewhat new to SF, I have been here for about 8 months now, and this is definitely in my top five favorite places to eat. Overall 1000000/10 stars and I definitely recommend going here for an AMAZING seafood boil. read more

Cajun House - Crawfish with sausage - Cajun/Creole Near Me - San Francisco, California

My order number is 128248684. I asked if they can substitute sausage links for a combination C with muscles never got a reply and then in the end, never got a replacement, but they did take out the sausage links. So I'm a little disappointed they could've just said no we can't do that but they didn't even bother. read more

I loved this place. It was my first time at a seafood boil (which I have been craving for literally an entire year). We basically got a bunch of shrimp, some mussels and clams. My favorite sauce was the house special but at the end of the day, they all blended together. The shrimp was very yummy (we got it with heads on) and it was super easy to detach the heads (and very fun!). It was succulent and by the time we were done, I was ready to eat another round (if only I wasn't so full!) read more

A good seafood boil in the neighborhood, the crawfish garlic noodles were much more impressive than the seafood boil itself, the boil was good but nothing exceptional. We had it with the house Cajun sauce medium spicy, next time we go we would definitely try a different sauce. The service was attentive and personal, she was very kind and recommended what we should go on our next visit. And the interior is nothing special, but can definitely fit larger groups. read more

My favorite seafood boil in SF is Cajun House! My to-go order is one of the seafood boil combos with an appetizer, such as gumbo. I usually take my orders to go, and when I come home, my food is still warm and delicious. My favorite part of their seafood boil is their House Cajun sauce. I usually mix the sauce with some hot white rice. Their service is great, and the staff were lovely. Cajun House is take-out and dine-in friendly, which makes it perfect for any occasion! read more

Was craving a seafood boil and this really hit the spot. It was well seasoned, and I had never had clams or mussels in a boil before but it was great. The Cajun fries were a bit bland for me but everything else was really good. We also had an order of calamari and that was super crisp and bigger than we thought. We also got seated right away as a party of 3 on a Friday, not sure if we just got lucky! Quick, but good service Side note: they don't give bibs but they do give gloves! read more

I ordered from Cajun House on DoorDash because I had a serious seafood boil craving, and it definitely satisfied that craving. We got the combo that included 2 pounds of Dungeness crab and 1 pound of shrimp, along with corn, sausage, and garlic noodles. It was all very flavorful, and the seafood was delicious! I personally love seafood boil, so I was having the time of my life. The crab also came pre-cracked, which made it so much easier to crack at home. However, right after eating, the food didn't react well with my stomach, and that's all I'll say there. My partner was fine though, so maybe it was just me. read more

I asked for 1.5 pounds of King Crab with shrimp and little pieces of sausage. At $85 per pound, we were served chopped TINY PIECES of questionably "king crab" that looked like baby king crab with tiny old, dried pieces of crab. This was the WORST seafood boil I have ever had at 3 times the price of the BEST I have ever had in other places in the Bay Area. They had the gull to charge us $14 for a small plate of garlic spaghetti noodles...unbelievable. I mentioned being disappointed about the king crab pieces that did not add up to 1.5 pounds and she quickly said, "oh sorry" and ran away to the kitchen. Stay away from this scam. The bill came to $200. We left still hungry. read more

This was my first time having seafood boil and I'm glad it was with Cajun House! My friends recommended this place so I was excited to try, and we all ended up ordering the get down and dirty with the white shrimp. I got mine with the house cajun sauce which was so good and packed with flavor. We also shared a cajun fries which could have used a bit more flavor but were still tasty. The next time I come I would want to try the garlic noodles since it seems like a really popular dish, and even the server asked if we wanted an order of the garlic noodles. Great place for seafood boil in SF as there are not as many places like this in the area! read more

I love the boil bags, the garlic noodles the bomb..Staff is nice..Nice Of course the Solju is great the original and flavor (prefer the original) any thing with alcoholic beverages is great.. I prefer a booth instead of sitting so close to someone I do not know..Will definitely recommend this place.. I do all the time read more

This review is long overdue. I have visited Cajun house several times, and each time, I leave a happy boy! The food is fresh and flavorful. Combo C is our go-to, and it's a steal! The service is always excellent. Super friendly and attentive. The owner ( I think ) is super kind and chats up the tables. Bonus points: their 90s playlist hits every time we are in, and I am convinced it elevates the food's flavor. Go out and support this local business! **Pro Tip** Cross the street and get dessert at the ice cream parlor. read more

We ordered fried frog legs to share as a snack on a Sunday evening (came with 4 pieces total). The meat was juicy, but the breading was a bit off. You could definitely taste the cajun spices, but it somehow seemed slightly undercooked. It came with a side of tartar sauce for dipping but that didn't add much. Overall, it wasn't bad, but I wouldn't return for this. Anyway, order for pick up is easy online. And they had our order ready and packaged nicely when we arrived at the quoted 25 min wait time (btw, different ordering apps have different wait times.. strange). Also, only street parking is available, but not too hard to find if you're willing to walk a block or two. read more

Compared to Boiling Crab in SJ, this place is really average. The sauce itself is ok, but it didn't blend well, and it tastes like food and sauce, not food immersed with sauce. The shrimp and clams taste fresh, I can give that, but just the sauce just can't compete with other places. When we got there around 5PM, we were the only party. People here were nice and welcoming. Overall, it was a ok experience, I will not come back here unless I crave for seafood and too last to drive to SJ. I will explore more Cajun places here in the city. read more

Came here Friday night because I was craving Cajun food especially seafood. This was our experience: Flambé crab $76 : the crab was fried and savory. You can taste the seasoning through the shell in the meat. It was salty so it made me pretty thirsty. Oysters $33 dozen: best oysters ever!! I was hesitant on getting them but I'm glad I did because they were big and meaty instead of slimy. They were very refreshing to wash down the greasy and savory flambé crab. Shrimp Cajun fried rice $15: the menu said it came with Louisiana hot links but unfortunately our dish didn't come with it. The shrimp Cajun fried rice was yummy but I'm sure it would've tasted better with the hot links Cajun sauce : medium hot. Additional $3 if you want to order it. I used it to dip the crab and mix with the fried rice I would personally give this place 4.5 stars because the service and food was great. The missing .5 stars is for missing the hot links in the shrimp Cajun fried rice and having someone's else sauce on our table when we arrived. The oysters and other items on the menu is what's bribing me back ! read more

Ordered some raw oysters and a seafood boil to go. Medium spicy with the house sauce. I liked that the oysters were packed on ice to remain cold while we traveled. We had an hour to get back to our Airbnb and they kept very cold. I was nervous about that. The seafood boil was good. It had shrimp, mussels, and clams. We added sausage and a couple potatoes. I liked the flavor of the sauce. I'm not a big fan of boiling shrimp with shells in. It's harder to take them off after cooking. The spice level was good. read more

Me and my boyfriend were really craving seafood boils while we were staying near south SF, and did not want to drive all the way to Oakland for some crawfish. It was pretty late in the night around 8:00 pm, so not a lot of places were open. My boyfriend managed to find Cajun House on Google Maps, so we went ahead and ordered what we usually got from other boil places: 1 lb Crawfish, 1 lb Shrimp, Corn, Sausage, all in the House Cajun sauce with medium spice + Garlic Noodles! The whole ordering and picking up process took about 30 minutes, and when we arrived back home only driving 10 minutes, everything was still hot. The portion of the garlic noodles were A LOT. My boyfriend is usually picky about garlic noodles and their flavor, but he really liked this one and how they seasoned it! In the boil itself, the sauce was extremely flavorful, rich, and spicy! The shrimp were honestly amazing, and the sausages as well were surprisingly good. The crawfish were unfortunately on the smaller side. Also, we had ordered 2 corn on the cobs, but they were not in our boil yet we were charged for it. A bit disappointing :( But! I will say this is a good option if you're not willing to drive to Oakland to get seafood boil and want to stay in the SF Area. read more

Been awhile since I ordered from here but quality definitely took a nose dive. Shoulda known better than to think the 49er was going to be normal king crab but it should at least be fresh. The crab and shrimp meat were mushy so probably really old and the crab sizes were mostly small or of the joints. Snow crab would have been bigger. read more
