I've been wanting to try this place out since they opened. I have gone to similar places in LA, so I had high standards. I ordered the snow crab and shrimp with the lemon pepper sauce. It came with both types of seafood, potatoes, corn, and sausage. It was a bit on the salty side, but the seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked. On the side we go their Cajun fries with ketchup and ranch. The fries were so good! Crunchy, warm when they came out, and seasoned perfectly. The service was great. We were sat right away and even got to order quickly. We did not have to wait long for our food either. The place only had a couple families. I'm hoping they get more people coming in to try it because it did not disappoint. read more

Been wanting to try this for awhile. Staff is nice and attentive and the food came out fast. The fried catfish was super fresh and cooked perfectly and my wife enjoyed the crab legs. Overall, it was about as good of fried seafood that you could expect in the valley, while just not at the level of something you would get on the coast. Great for a date night as these two entrees and two beers plus tip were only $60. I have spent that much on breakfast recently. read more

We tried this broil the other day. It was ok. It was fairly busy, but not enough that we had to flag down a waiter to get our drink order. He continuously forgot to bring different things throughout our time there. There was only four of us at our table and the table behind us came in and was served before we were, with a larger party. We ordered the clam chowder, a bit runny, but taste was decent. I prefer it a little thicker. The catfish and sweet potatoes fries, fried pickles were good. The broil was decent but I think we will be sticking to our usual spot in Fresno. I was disappointed because I wanted to like this place but it was just ok. They do have a bigger menu selection than our other spot. They also have a bar however there was no one tending to it so we had to wait to get a servers attention for some drinks. We asked for to go containers and were brought the smallest option they had. I walked over to ask for another and they provided me a large container (different server). To top it off, as were attempting to get our to go plates ready, a water was spilled and ran over all into the floor. Again, we had to physically get up to get someone's attention to clean it up so we didn't slip on their floor. They took one wipe with a towel and stuck a caution sign next to the table. They didn't return to clean it again until we left. Mind you a puddle of water was still at our feet. Really disappointed because I wanted to like it but it was just average with minimal service. read more

Food was very good and improved from my last visit there. The service was excellent. Attentive waitress that made sure we had everything we needed and that the food was ok. Ambiance was good except for a larger group at a table that were very loud. Other than that everything was fine. read more

Great service the waiter that helped up was very friendly and helpful in deciding what to order and the food was very tasty.

The food was good and price reasonable. Took forever to order and get our drinks after ordering. Kids rice too even longer. Reminded twice and was told they are still making rice after the 2nd reminder. read more

Had a great time at Cap'n (haha I know it's Captain, but isn't Cap'n more fun??) Crab on a Thursday night in March. No wait to be seated. Pretty big space! They had everyone seated on one section of the dining area-very efficient. Our waiter was fast and friendly. We enjoyed water and a pacifico. They had a pretty good selection of beers and a few wines to choose from. This was my first time at any seafood boil place. The bucket of utensils, gloves, and bibs was fun and useful! We started off with the popcorn shrimp--very juicy and flavorful! We got 1/2 lb of crab legs to share and it was delicious and the perfect amount. I think next time I would order another half pound of shrimp or maybe some bread to go with it. Love the cute decor. Would definitely go back! Great cajun seasoning with mild spicyness-perfect for me. read more

Captain Crab - Fried Catfish Basket - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Clovis, California

my go to seafood boil when i lived here. simple and quick service. delicious wings, shrimps, and clams!!

The first time we stopped by this restaurant, it was packed with lots of people waiting outside. Luckily, we came back on a weekday and got a table right away. The menu has a variety of seafood and others. The servers were polite and even asked if we would like certain condiments like lemons. The ambiance was clean and definitely for all. I saw people on dates, family dinners, etc. The seafood quality was good with content flavoring as I got the captain special. I would prefer more minced garlic as the sauce was more liquid base and Cajun. read more

Grand opening on this new gem in Clovis, really enjoyed my seafood lunch! There are a couple non seafood items but the seafood options are endless... boiled & fried. I had the lunch catfish basket with Cajun fries, my dad had the fried shrimp basket with crispy sweet potato fries and my mom had the chicken tenders basket with onion rings. All hot and crispy!! Definitely coming back for some boiled seafood, I recommend trying this place out before or after a movie at Sierra Vista Prices are affordable, I was pleasantly surprised. The service was so friendly read more

Went a while back, but never reviewed this place. Love that they have an outdoor seating area. Very nice since it faces into the shopping center's plaza. Good ambiance. Annoying though because shopping center has loudass music & they also had music playing. Not the same music so it was a cacophony of different songs. Not fun! Food was decent overall. Would definitely go back again as long as they work on the music thing. Not necessarily as good or as much value as another place I won't name since they angered me w/their unwillingness to seat us outdoors (some of us still have to think of COVID) despite having served us multiple times before & they literally had NO ONE inside. read more

Our 10 year old wanted seafood boil so we came to Captain Crab. We ordered the Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings for an appetizer. For our meal we ordered Captain's Special w/ Dungeness Crab Legs, Headon Shrimp, Black Mussels and added Susage. We ordered it w/ Captains Seasoning and Medium Spicy. Everything tasted amazing. The prices are very reasonable and the service was great. We will definitely be back. read more

02/01/25- We went to the Captain Crab in Clovis,CA. For their 2nd Anniversary serving the Clovis community. We got there about 1pm .Wasn't much of a line but lots of people were inside already. There was a hour 1/2 minutes wait. But we decided to wait and eat in for special celebration. They were also taken to go order and the line started to pick up. The host, Elmer was Awsome! He keep moving people and try to seat them within 45min wait. He clear tables and and even took to go orders until he got help. I was very impressed by the way he worked. We finally got seated about 2:30p (1hr 30min) like Elmer had said. We had also had an awesome waiter named, Mitchell. He always check on us make sure we are doing fine. His service was excellent also. I highly recommend this place. My friends couldn't finish their bag of seafood took it to go. I eat all mine and order another bag of seafood and took it home. You can't beat a $19.99 dining all a worth of $36.99. The atmosphere is friendly & pleasant. I will definitely go there again. I Love Seafood! . read more

Captain Crab - King's Feast Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Clovis, California

I love this place! The food is so good! I come here often! Compliments to the chef! Customer service could use a bit of work it's definitely not the same. I've never had an issue before until today when I ordered over the phone. I just got off of work and wanted to treat myself to some seafood. I had to ask the girl over the phone what came in my bag and she didn't even know. She didn't ask me the seasoning I wanted or the spice level, I had to tell her. She didn't ask me my name, I had to tell her. I asked how long it would be and she hung up me. I had to call back and ask for the time, she didn't tell me initially. I work in food as well and understand how stressful work can be during a rush but I don't forget to ask vital questions which can completely alter your meal or let alone a name for an order. She told me about ~20/30 minutes and I waited over 40 minutes I believe they forgot about my order. I understand how under training staff can lead to issues like these, so I hope new hires can be well informed and better trained. Overall the staff needs to be reminded to ask these questions. read more

My wife suggested we try to eat at this business establishment, since it would be her second time eating here. However it'll be my first time stopping by here to dine in for some seafood boil. Guess this business is fairly new to this area in Clovis. Upon arriving to the establishment, we were greeted by friendly patrons and right away we were seated. Didn't have to wait since we showed up around 2pm for lunch specials. We were ready to eat so we started by ordering appetizers and the main course. For appetizers my wife requested crab cakes which comes with two crab cakes patties and a side of their dipping sauce. Next she ordered Cajun chicken wings which comes with a basket of Cajun fries and ranch dipping sauces and celery sticks. Finally she order two pounds of shrimps with head on with the Captain Special seasoning with medium spice level. Everything all came out to our table at one time. Oh yeah I got a side of steam white rice to eat my shrimps with. FYI... The Shrimp Seafood Boil also includes two corn on the Cobb and potatoes. I would say the seafood boil is comparable to "Kicking Crab" in San Jose. I actually like the flavor, seasoning and spices they had in our seafood boil. Great to know we didn't have to drive 3 hours away just to get our fix for seafood boil. We would definitely stop by this location again to order take outs or dine in. I recommend for anyone who likes and crave seafood boil, to give this business a try. I think we spent $75 total for everything including tips. So market price for the shrimp was reasonable, plus it was fresh and not frozen and mushy. read more

Service was horrible. Waited for 20 minutes for a table just for 2 people, during lunch hours. There were lots of tables that were available. I don't know if they were under staff but I don't care. The guy with the black beanie in the front said it was about a 5 minute wait but turned to a 20 minute wait, what a waste of my time. read more

I feel very conflicted considering their food is usually one of my favorites but i went in today with my party of 6 at 8:50pm we drove over an hr for their food and considering they close at 11 we 100% thought we'd get a table but they sent us away and said they were done seating for the night due to the amount of people but there was several free tables and we said we were willing to wait but they denied us so we left very disappointed read more

If you have food allergies, such as shrimp, you should NOT eat here... They apparently DO NOT have a separate setting to fry food away from the shrimp. Maria went to ask her Manager and came back to our table stating the Manager does not accommodate those who have food allergies, everything is fried in the same oil ... read more

Food was amazing great service and waiter with long black hair was super nice and did an outstanding job I definitely recommend this place

I come to this place all the time I love the food here, I love all the service, we had Havana a couple times and she's so nice and sweet, our food always come out right away and taste wonderful. Good job keep it up read more

I enjoy their seafood specials, great price. Service is good and attentive. I always order the whole shabang with the spiciest spice level they got to offer. I love how on special days they do such a fantastic job with advertising great deals, especially on Mother's Day! Inside is super spacious so if you plan to come in a large group I think this place is a great place to come enjoy your seafood boil! read more

Horrible.!!!! Really wanted some good food but never did . Very rude girls and staff . Called asked if they were open and rudely replied yes but we stop serving or taking orders at 9.30 it was 8.15 . They had all the lights off on Shaw side . Went in 5 minutes later . Gal seats a couple in front of us then goes and starts talking to her co-workers for 5 minutes while we are just waiting us out . She knew we were waiting to be seated. Made eye contact multiple times but never came over . Place was filthy. Dirty tables all over with no people at them . Was kinda busy . This was a Thursday evening. Really was looking forward to this place but it won't happen. Nobody cares anymore customer service is horrendous these days .! read more

Favorite Spot for a Seafood boil! The service is always on point! Price is reasonable and restaurant is always clean.

Fresh and Flavorful Seafood: Many diners praise the Cajun-style boils and seafood bags--especially the popular "low-country boil" combos with shrimp, snow crab, sausage, corn, potatoes, and egg--served with fun, messy, hands-on presentation is on point. read more

STAY AWAY!! FOOD POISOING! I started coming down with my symptoms about an hour after sharing a bag of the "Kings Feast" with my wife yesterday 3/22/25. My wife's symptoms set in about an hour or two after mine. And it has been all downhill since then. Easily one of the most miserable experiences I've encountered in a very long time. Kind of funny (but not funny), my wife said, "I would rather go through childbirth again than go through this again." So remember that before you dine here at the Captain Crab! I should mention this seafood was the only thing we ate all day... and we've been so sick we've both lost at least 5 lbs overnight... Now its about 22 hours later and I am starting to feel a bit better.. So I called to alert the restaurant at noon (one hour after they opened) today 3/23/25... because I know that we can't be the only ones who got exposed.. but the manager "Joe Joe" (I believe) told me that "seafood is hard on people's stomachs and isn't for everyone"... LIKE WE HAVENT HAD IT BEFORE... I couldn't believe it. He didn't even say that they would investigate the kitchen. He didn't offer a refund.. Nothing. Basically we got the "sorry we got you sick, but there's nothing we can do for you." So ya, the service and experience at the restaurant was great. I really enjoyed the server and the environment... But dine at your own risk!!! And don't expect any help from Captain Crab if they destroy your gut for a day or two! read more

Second time here. Very disappointed. The oysters were super small. Shrimp was okay. Clam chowder was $6.00 for a small bowl. Fries were limp. 12:30 pm and I was the only person in the entire store. 22.00 for a mediocre senior lunch. Probably my last time here. read more

Captain Crab - Captain Crab - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Clovis, California

Outside appearance: 5/10 trash in the patio area and not clear where the entrance is. Inside appearance: 10/10 clean and nice decor on the inside. Food options: 10/10 affordable seafood boils options. Purchased the 1lb of shrimp that came with corn and potato. Sauce: 3/10 (house sauce) I was so disappointed. It's not bad but not really what I expected. It was salty and not really Cajun seafood boil. Reminded me of Bubba Gump Overall great experience but will have to try other items on the menu. read more
