Seriously, my new favorite seafood place! No longer do I need to drive all the way to Stoneham for their other location. Unlimited garlic noodles? Say no more! Do the combos! -pick 2: get a free side -pick 3: get free mussels or crawfish -pick 4: get a free lobster or snow crab Manfriend and I ordered 4 things, if you know me, i'm going for that free lobster! We got clams, shrimps, mussels, and live crawfish that comes with corn and potatoes. Their Louisiana sauce was amazing! Medium spice level is mild in my opinion. But honestly, go try this place if you haven't already! read more

Seafood selection is great, and price is reasonable. We picked three items for the boil bag and it's enough for party of three. The seasoning is just perfect with a little bite. @captlouiprovidence read more

Food was super good and very quick easy experience. Great service! Medium spice was a tad spicy so recommend going with Mild if you don't like too much spice. read more

Cap't Loui - Seafood Near Me - Braintree, Massachusetts

Came across this place on my trip to Boston and I was amazed at how good this restaurant was! Best seafood boil I have visited in the past few years. The place is very modern, nice and cozy. The atmosphere is great for any occasion to have a meal with your family, friends, or loved one. Although I came here on the holiday, the service was still very fast and accommodating. I picked a 4 combo with mussels, live crawfishes, lobsters, and snow crabs. The seafood was fresh and marinated well. We tried both the sauces and loved them all. We also added the garlic noodles and extra corns for additional fees. The kids loved the garlic noodles, highly recommended. We were very satisfied, and everyone agreed this restaurant was a hot spot for any locals or tourists to visit. Wish we had this great quality for seafood boils in Philadelphia. About the drinks, we loved the cocktails that we ordered. I highly recommended you to try the Mr. Rich & Finding nemo. Overall great restaurant with high-quality seafood and great service. I am definitely looking forward to our next visit! read more

Very clean, nice staff food BOMBBBBBBBB May our server was so attentive and very helpful!! read more

Cap't Loui personally never disappoints. I've dined in and gotten takeout, either way food quality is always up to par. The service is beyond friendly, especially with Candace, our server from last night. 9/10 times you are seated upon arrival immediately, never experienced a long wait. The booth tables are a bit awkward and not the most comfortable to dine in but it'll do. Every time I go back I'm reminded that this is the best place to grab a seafood boil. The lemon pepper sauce is super flavorful, and not too oily. The shoestring fries are always perfectly done. I've bumped a star off my review as everything is an additional add on now, as to when this location was relatively new, most sides were included with your meal. Other than that, check them out! read more

Heard this was like the louiloui in stoneham. It was definitely tasty and fresh like it is there. It is good to have a Cajun seafood boil place in the south shore. We got the Lemon pepper & Louisiana sauce. We got a few pounds of crab Legs, shrimp, sausage, corn and crawfish. The sauces were flavorful and enhance the flavor of the seafood. The seafood had a nice coating of sauce over it. Captloui in braintree had a promo for free Gralic noodles. It was flavorful and I could taste the garlic in every bite. The mixed drinks were in a cool bag with a straw and tasty delightful. Staff was friendly and helpful. Price was reasonable for seafood. Overall, it was pretty satisfying and worth a try. read more

I ate there and my blood pressure shot all the way up. I got super dizzy after getting the extra spicy captain louie sauce. Please take it down a notch when making the sauce. The food is good but the cooks measurements were totally off that day. read more

My new favorite Loui Loui location! I grew up eating boiling crab and kickin crab in SoCal and have been to most of the crab boil restaurants in the Boston area and Cap't Loui is one of the best in the area in terms of taste, quality and price. My waiter, Eric was very friendly and helpful. He definitely made our dining experience more enjoyable. I ordered the snow crab and crawfish combo Louisiana style extra spicy for around $38. The snow crab was very meaty and flavorful while the crawfish was surprisingly good for frozen crawfish. It came with a free side and I opted for Cajun fries. They also had a promo at the time for free UNLIMITED garlic noodles. What a deal, right? My only complaint is that I was disappointed that the sauce was more of chunky paste than a sauce so I couldn't dip my seafood in it like I usually love to do! read more

Cap't Loui - Snow crab and Cajun fries - Seafood Near Me - Braintree, Massachusetts

Love these crab boil places down south. Really wanted to like this however, just not a good experience. To begin with, the prices are double of what these charge down south. They didn't have any diet sodas at all. The snow crabs were over cooked. Soft and not crispy at all. On top of that the Cap't Loui boil was so garlicky I can kill any vampire on the south shore with my breath. Usually there's a Cajun or a garlic option. There was so much garlic we couldn't taste the seafood at all. read more

Look at him, he's the captain now! I always tread carefully when ordering crawfish from the east coast, but they had fresh live crawfish! We had 2 orders of the pick 4, just to try a little bit of everything. So that means we had the crawfish, snow crab legs, clams, and shrimp. It was delicious. 10/10 would eat it again. The flavor of the buttery -spicy - a kick of something sweet captain Loui sauce was my favorite. I dipped everything in it. read more

Top notch, best cajun seafood boil in Boston! I got the Cajun fries, snow crab in Loui sauce, and the Finding Nemo tequila drink on the side. The fries was so crispy and perfectly seasoned. It had a crunchy exterior, but yet a light and fluffy interior. Such a perfect balance! The snow crab and the Loui sauce is the perfect pairing! It was so flavorful, aromatic, and the snow crab was humongous- my personal favorite. Overall, the food was delicious and the staff were all extremely friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend! read more

It was really good! My whole family came for dinner cuz it was nearby our hotel and im glad we came. We ordered a bunch of seafood and I like the deals that they have. They had dollar raw oysters on tuesdays. The flavor of the spices were good. Waiters were very helpful and friendly. Space is big as well. I recommend coming here for delicious seafood read more

We ordered 2 shrimp baskets for take out. Whenwe placed the order we were asked if we wanted reg fries, Cajun fries, lemon pepper fries or sweet potato fires. We selected Cajun fries and sweet potato for our baskets. they were good. When were got home we noticed they charged an additional $1.00 for the sweet potato fries. I know its small but feel that the person taking the order should have told. us of the additional charges. She simply gave us the choices available for our order. Unfortunately this left me with a sour feeling, read more

Cap't Loui - The throwback - Seafood Near Me - Braintree, Massachusetts

Eaten here a dozen times. The best well balanced seafood boil sauces I've had, hands down. The boils are well sauced and savory and seafood always tastes fresh. I usually get the Cap't Loui sauce and it hits right every time. I brought all my friends and family here and they all love it! We've tried half a dozen different boil places and this place does it best. Their drinks are delicious and they have plenty of sides. My favorite are their wings, yes I know... wings in a seafood boil place?! Crazy. Moist, piping hot, and extra crunchy on the outside. Dunk that into the perfectly seasoned boil sauce and it's all uphill from there. The MUST side order you have to get to pair your seafood with are the garlic noodles... my god, nice layer of cheese on top with great aromatics from some herbs, garlic, and butter. Great food, fast and attentive service, good location (has mall parking lot and right off the highway), and prices are fair.. especially with seafood. Try it and I promise you, if you have any taste buds, this place will pleasantly surprise you. read more

We arrived and were seated at 8:30. The restaurant was not busy. 8:40 no one came to our table, we left!

Tried their 3 seafood boil combo (crawfish, snow crab legs, and clams) and it was really delicious. I really liked the cap't loui sauce which I think is their basic house sauce. It wasn't too salty and it had a hint of citrus undertone which really helped with not getting sick of the sauce very fast. I often find these seafood boil places go overboard with their sauces but this one was just perfect and complemented the seafood very well. I also tried their jambalaya which I thought was just okay. Overall, I think this place is definitely worth visiting if you are looking to get your fingers dirty and get your boiled seafood on! read more

Such a great space with great food! Everything tasted soo great. Employees are so friendly and they have great service! Ordered the calamari basket (w/ lemon pepper fries) soooo bomb! After that we got the king crab, snow crab, mussels, shrimp and crawfish. Super flavorful, the capt loui sauce was great. I love spicy food so i ordered an extra of the extra spicy sauce on the side and was not disappointed! The ambiance of the restaurant is nice and cozy and its very spacious! Will def come back again, great place to eat with your family, friends, etc! read more

coming back after finding about the oyster deal, this place is such a great find for dollar oysters. they were fresh, big, and juicy. they have their dollar oyster deals on tuesday. We sat down and our waitress, candice, brought us over water and she was super nice and accommodating. She was super attentive and checked in with us periodically on the food. The seafood boils were amazing, the garlic noodles are a must get, and even though it is a seafood boil place, the chicken tenders were crisp and juicy. Definitely would come back and candice certainly went above and beyond in her service. read more

I was expecting more. Ordered soft shell crab came out burnt. Order garlic pasta came out with a spoiled smell. Crab and shrimp was on point. My wife ordered fish and chip and usually she "raves." This time she Nothing to say. So that said a lot. Waiter was attentive a real nice, but food came up short. read more

So Fing!!!!! Good!!!!!! Like seriously. If youve never had a seafood boil I 100% recommend. This was the first time I had ever tried it so I thought it was great but not sure how it would hold up against other places in terms of flavor/authenticity. We got the Capt Loui sauce eith medium spiciness and it was perfect! It's pricey $$ so go with a few people and get a combo order. Anyway 10/10 deliciousness!! read more

Food was awesome - atmosphere sucked- if you don't like sweet alcohol drinks be prepared to not have any options. Expensive but food is good

Good food, good service. Nice location. My wife and I love seafood and were happy to stop by. Hope to be back soon.

Came here with a party of 3 at 9pm on a Friday, and we got sat down after 30 minutes. If you come on a busy night, be prepared to wait for an hr-1.5hrs for your food to be ready. We ordered sweet tea but the sweet tea had no flavor. It tasted more like... a very light tea with honey in it. When i use to get the sweet tea, its a very dark color, but it was a lot lighter this time. Not sure if the server heard the wrong order. food overall was great. The only complaint is the shrimp is not fresh. I know it is frozen shrimp, but i think the shrimp has been frozen for way too long, it was a bit mushy and very hard to peel the skin. Unfortunately the king crab leg meat was very mushy, wasnt into the texture at all (again, probably frozen too long). The flavor of the sauces is on point. I actually really like the garlic noodles a lot more compared to the ones in stoneham location. (More garlic and less cheese) PS: Don't pour the seafood on the table!!!! You gotta scoop your sauces from the bag read more

No complaints about this place (besides the price but it is seafood so....¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Just a little heads up for you guys, the prices of the seafood are on the sides of the napkin dispense at your table. I opted for the boiler combo--if you pick 3, you get one for free. So I got the clams, mussel, crawfish, and shrimp as the free one. For sauce I recommend Cap't Louie. For spice I recommend hot, I felt like it was not that spicy but if you can't take the heat, get the medium. There's adequate pieces of each in the bag. The bag also comes with potatoes and corn. Apparently the noodles are unlimited? Didn't know until the receipt read 'unlimited noodles'. The service was awesome, our waiter was super nice to us and super attentive. read more

I just want to say Wow! 1st. We called few days before we came to eat we had called to make a reservation, little disappointed that they didn't make reservations because we were a party of 13-15 People. 2nd. When we arrived we didn't even have to wait for our tables to be ready! Great servIce, everyone was so nice. 3rd. The reason I am writing this review wasn't just because of the food! Which was great! But HENRY! Your are the man! We had a big group and little kids we were driving you crazy and you kept your happy face all night! You never gave us a bad face or any bad looks. You are the reason we will come back here and definitely ask for you to take care of us. Henry may God Bless you! Great example of Excellent Customer service!!

I have been coming here since opening, we went last night for the fresh crawfish and it was delicious! We like the snow crab legs. I like mild seasoning, the lemon pepper was surprisingly tasty as well but a little spicy for me. My husband loves the dessert fries he wanted 5 orders for himself. Make sure you get them hot!

Went here for lunch and overall it was a great experience. Seats were spaced out with plenty of rooms. Staffs were nice. Food was good. We got medium for sauce but it was not spicy at all so was slightly disappointed there. Garlic noodles had way too much cheese read more

Very nice location and decor at the South Shore Plaza Mall, right next to an out of business Red Robin. It was quiet when we visited on Saturday afternoon but really filled up as we ate. The cocktail list is awesome. They have Capri Sun style cocktails that come in the pouch. I got the Madam Berry and it was huge and had quite the punch. Best drink I've had in awhile. We also tried the Throw Back which was smaller but equally good. For food we went with the bowl of jumbalaya. A bit overpriced for the size. It had a nice spice level and was tasty. We also went with the snow crab fried plate. Nice crab but again a small portion for the price. The crab pieces really seemed more fried bits than actual meat which was a bummer since it was market price and more than anticipated. The lemon fries were great. The cole slaw - eh, not so much. Really enjoyed the food and drinks though and would definitely stop in again. read more
