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

FINALLY. I've been waiting for a seafood boil restaurant to open up in Clovis. I came here for my birthday dinner for two about a week ago. We were seated quickly and got our food rather quickly as well. Interior fit the theme and plenty of seating inside. We came around 5pm and it filled up by the time we were eating. Located at Sierra Vista mall amongst some other shops, so it makes for nice evening outing in Clovis. Everything was as expected, they even include corn and potatoes in your bags. We ordered the Dungeness crab w garlic butter and shrimp w captain's special medium. I personally like the creole flavors so I would recommend. They also give you gloves which I've been to a couple other seafood boil locations where they don't, so I was pretty happy about that. I did bring my own in case which I ended up using anyway since they were tighter. The oysters were ok but I do appreciate them being separated from the shell ahead of time. Our server was very nice and checked on us plenty. Overall good experience. read more

Wow! It's been a while since we have been able to find both good food and service at same time. This place nailed both. What a pleasant experience. I had the boil with crab and husband had the fried shrimp basket. We also ordered fried mushrooms that was our only little issue. They came out after our dinners. Also husbands food came out way before my BUT we were so ok with it. They've only been opened a few day and if this is the only issue, they have a great future. We really enjoyed ourselves. We absolutely will return. Thanks so much. Good luck. read more

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

What I really love about this place is the amount of fresh seafood you get for a fair price unlike the other local competitors. Customer service is spectacular and it made my experience here wonderful. I ordered the Ultimate Family Combo ($60) and got 3 lbs of seafood goodness. Their fried basket was on point. The breading over the calamari and oysters were light and not overly breaded. If you are looking for delicious seafood for a great price come on down. You will not be disappointed with this place!!! read more

Captain Crab - Ultimate Family Combo: Dungeness Crab, Clams, Shrimp. Captain's seasoning mix. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Clovis, California

This is my second choice for a seafood boil in the 559 area, the flavor is good and the spice level gets pretty spicy, it has a good kick to it. I like that they have combo deals and they do holiday specials sometimes, I only know of Mother's Day and Father's Day special, not sure if they do any other holiday. I usually go with a friend and we always get the family deal with the captain's special, flaming hot, it's enough for us 2 or sometimes 3 and we usually finish the whole thing, depending on how hungry we are lol! The hush puppies are good and addicting. We get the oysters cooked in the captain's sauce as well, sooo good, I believe it's broiled. Service is friendly and pretty attentive but there have been times where they aren't that busy and the waiter/waitress takes a while to check on us. This is also a very spacious spot so if you wanted to go in a large group they will be able to serve you. It has the same feel as most seafood boil spots with fishing nets, crab and such for decoration. I haven't been back in a while though because the last time we went it was pretty salty which has never happened before. So not sure if they got a new cook. I've been giving them a break so hopefully they fixed that issue, I've been wanting to go back. read more

Captain Crab - The after math lol - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Clovis, California

First to note, we had a party of 15. server messed up orders 3 times across the table, never came for a refill on drinks over the course of 40min till we flagged down a different employee. fried food and or batter they used has absolutely no flavor. onion rings and calamari do not suggest. the only appetizer came out after the entire table got their main entree's. literally only come here if your interested in those bag boils. nothing else is at all appealing Or tasty. I literally would've been happier going to costco or Sam's club and getting a hotdog and soda combo for 1.50. read more

We killed the seafood again out here. Tastes amazing we love there captain special sauce ( no pun intended on special sauce) we got the medium spice. We could've gotten hotter. But the flavor is amazing. I would recommend at least trying this place if you like Cajun style seafood. Even though it seems like our server was helping a lot of tables. he was there to help for everything we need it. Table ambience was nice. Music was good. It wasn't too packed during the time that we were there. Point read more

First time here with the fiancé and family!! We are on our way to shaver and needed dinner and this was our closet location and we have no complaints!! 1000000/10 with service and food and atmosphere read more

Unfortunately, we've not been able to try the fare to see how it measures up. Upon arriving, after a brief wait, we were seated and provided menus including specials. Out server, Mitchel was quick to arrive and offer drinks or appetizers - we asked for a moment to look over the menu. Neither the hostess nor our server mentioned menu items that were unavailable and, despite the menu having prices and notes updated with grease pen, upon asking for one of the seasonal specials, were advised it was unavailable. It was priced at $47.99 for one pound of blue crab plus two pounds of additional seafood/sausage. We were directed to the closest other 3# option (since we were looking at sharing for two) but that option was significantly pricier - $65, or the $34.98 option which was half the amount of food. We asked for the manager and explained that we'd like to have a compromise as it was not appropriate to not explain to customers upon seating that an item was not available. I also explained that the hostess could have indicated, the waiter could have indicated and the restaurant could have easily placed an "X" through the menu item (those grease pens work just as well for prices as marking an item) His reply was to repeatedly indicated "but its seasonal and we don't have it" Then his suggestion was to order individual items (no crab at all, shrimp/clams/sausage would be cheaper than the $47 bundle) rather than coming up with a solution. According to both the waiter and manager "there's not a way to change the combos in the system" I feel like this place does a bait and switch - off items not on the menu for a "good deal" them not have it so they can convince you to spend more. We offered to pay for our soft drinks (which the manager did waive) and we left. It's a shame that we didn't even have a chance to expand our date night options but Captain Crab needs to reevaluate how they serve their customers and how they address menu updates to present an experience that will value patrons. We won't be back. FYI - Blue Crab season is year round in CA, April thru October in the Gulf Coast and April-December on the East Coast so their "explanation" is extra suss read more

Service was great & the food was better! Ambience was family friendly. Definitely coming again!

Amazing service! Ambiance is cool for party , casual hangout , family gatherings and more. Ordered 1/2 lb of headless shrimp , to my surprise they were not peeled and was a little bummer (medium spicy wasn't spicy at all). Also, ordered 1lb of green mussels , loved them, with sausage, rice and corns. The food is served with corn and potatoes. Will give this place a 10/10 for service, 7/10 for food and 9/10 for ambiance. MITCH WAS AN EXCELLENT SERVER!! read more

Good food and the seafood tasted fresh . Many choices and specials and variations and packages. Pretty big shrimp just not too garlicy if your captains mix. Good food and did not taste too seafood like other places. Lots of TV's and beer choices. read more

I got some shrimps yesterday were absolutely disappointed. A couple of the shrimps were spoiled and smell incredibly fishy to the point that I almost feel like throwing up after biting into it. My husband ate some and we are both feel nauseous all night. We have eaten here a good 5-10 times and this was the one time that will prevent us from ever coming back. It was kind of traumatizing. I can still taste/smell it as I'm writing this. read more

Customer service great but needs more greetings when walk in. Food was delicious and yum. Worth of money. I like spicy. Waiting time takes awhile to get seated and area is clean. read more

Food was good. I really like the crab cakes. We got the headless shrimp with sausage and crab, that came with potatoes, corn and boiled egg. The o Lu thing my boyfriend didn't like was the crab had little meat. Quote to much work for so little meat. Other than that everything was good. So was the service our waiter nice and attentive. read more

We are in the month of July and it is 91 degrees in this restaurant!! Could not even enjoy the food! Was it good? Flavorful? Who knows because it's too hot to eat the food!!! Avoid this place! How are you not trying to make your customers comfortable. Also, to all wondering if maybe it's because the AC wasn't operating properly... it was freezing in the restroom! The hostess let us know that Management just doesn't care. read more

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

If I could do half a star review I would. I ate here for the first time ever, and it is definitely going to be the last time. Nice little place, and nice people too. But, as far as the food. I got a regular seafood boil. It was cold when it arrived to my table, and the garlic butter sauce was not flavored whatsoever. It tasted watered down, if you could even water down butter. There was crab legs, sausage, and shrimp and one boiled egg, and potatoes and corn.. out of all of that... MAYBE the shrimp was OKAY. the crab was alriiiGHT. it was very little meat inside. bay bay ah crab. and don't get me started on the sausages. i'm not sure WHAT kind of sausage it was, but the casing on it was tough and would fall off when I took bites out of it. Potatoes and corn were probably the only normal thing. I had a cup of ice and sink water as my drink. The only thing I genuinely liked was, the fact I could dispose of my shells, into a trash can bucket. It was an OKAY meal. but not the best seafood boil around in Fresno. Now, as I'm walking out, I got thee WORST stomach pains. I feel like all that food is just floating around in my stomach acid right at the top of my gut. I've been nauseous for FIVE hours after eating that. I haven't passed a bowel movement since, but I'm ending this review right here to see if I can upchuck it in the toilet. Please. For the love of GOD, do not come here and give this establishment your hard-earned money. read more

i love this place sooo much. im from LA and their food exactly reminds me of boiling crab and another local seafood boil place. the food is SPOT ON!! i always order the captain special with the house special sauce and medium spicy. its so good !!! the service is always friendly whenever i dine in :) i highly recommend coming here if you're ever craving seafood boil! the enviroment is so nice as well read more

Hands down the best seafood boil place I ever been to. Went there this Saturday night with 3 friends, the whole restaurant is pretty much filled up, however, we didn't need to wait too long to be seated. We ordered the family special with snow crab and shrimp to share, got that captain special seasoning with medium spicy and it was so good and flavorful! We ended up order another pound of shrimp. Lol Oh man l, my belly was full and happy. To top it off, our server was really attentive and quick. Will be back soon read more

I'm vegetarian so I don't eat the seafood, but I love the sides! I love potatoes, and these are some of the best taters I've ever had in my life. The first time I tried them, I was like, I didn't know potatoes could taste like this! The sauce! The corn is really good, too. I also love the hush puppies and cajun fries. And they have rice. I always get the potatoes, corn, hush puppies, fries, and rice, and mix them all together in a bowl. This time I added some Beyond sausage link and it was great with everything. I've since tried potatoes and corn from a couple other creole/cajun/seafood boil places, and Captain Crab is my favorite. P.S. The potatoes!!! read more

Service good, ambiance casual, little cheesy but fun. Had the boil- garlic butter & lemon pepper as seasonings were great. Dont spend $ on King Crab - save it for the coast. But did good job on lobster tails, green mussels, potatoes, corn & hardboiled eggs. read more

The food was excellent! Deep fried shrimp and family bake were amazing. You get lots of food with your meal.

For 4, we ordered Captains combo with 1 lb Dungeness crab, 2 lbs head on shrimp and 1 lb manila clams. And we also ordered 1 lbs crawfish & another lb of head on shrimp. The fried oysters basket with cajun fries was good too. Would definitely come back next time! read more

Extremely rude and unprofessional staff we came 45 minutes before closing, and they did not want to seat us and were standoffish about it. Happened multiple times but the previous time we can 30 minutes before closing so we understood but what's the point of having your hours posted if you're not going to follow them. read more

Each time I order take out my shrimp bag is always ripped from the bottom and my shrimp is always undercooked (has an extra fishy taste and is always extra chewy). I have no complaints how it taste when I sit down and eat it in the restaurant but I don't understand why they can't put the same effort when I order take out? Also every-time I order take out I don't even get a single lemon, today I bought two pounds and no lemon read more

Fast service. The shrimp and dungeonous were very good and flavor was on point. Oysters were fresh. I'm thinking better flavoring than first/Bullard and river park but that's imo. Totally recommended!! read more
