Overall a great dining experience the staff were accomidating and friendly. The shrimp and snow crab felt wonderfully fresh despite how long it took to skin them. read more

It's hard to eat here without comparing it to the OG boiling crab ! While their Cajun sauce was edible, I did just keep comparing it to what I'm used to at THE BOILING CRAB which usually disappoints me! Their crab and corn chowder was very tasty / one of the best I've had / highly recommend that!! read more

The most scrumptious meal I've ever had in years. It was perfect, and the two sauces that came with it complimented everything so well. I've never had crab fried like this, other than crab cakes. So, this was a real treat! I'd recommend this to all crab lovers. It has the right crispy texture, while the inside is still soft and juicy. The sweet potato fries were pretty good, too. read more

Crab and corn had way too much oil and no flavor. Mussels were good but shrimp was also drowning in oil with zero taste. As a cook myself, less oil please - you're steaming not frying. First time here and disappointed. read more

What a find! This restaurant is located in what I'd describe as a mini food hall, with other shops to choose from. We were particularly in the mood for something like kickin kasian, but this spot doesnt have the long wait time or the heartburn you feel after enjoying your meal. Dont get me wrong, the food was still flavorful. My suggestion is to get a menu, claim a table, and the place your order at the counter. When I went, there was only 1 order taker. He didnt give us a number to place on our table (the place was that small). Your table will get a paper cover over it and you can request for gloves and a bib.. Ordering is pretty straightforward: 1) Pick your choice of seafood (half and by the pound). Limited options when its by the half. 2) Select sauce. I did the crab mentality which mixes it all together 3 select spice level. The mild had a good subtle kick for me but incredibly hot had an extra zip Meals were served to us in less than 15 minutes. Overall, we enjoyed our meals. Calamrari and fries appetizer had a nice crunchy bite. And i was happy i got to substitute the fries for cajun ones. The fisherman's half bounty had the best balance of different seafood options. But I did not like my oysters that I ordered. Well some had this great flavor and than others had a fishy taste to it. It was a little disconcerting. The peeled shrimp was cooked perfectly with good flavor from the sauce. I did add some lemon juice to mine just cause I like it more lemony. You get a good serving of food for the price, compared to other spots. They dont have many drink options, but like I said, its a food hall. So I just got some boba from a spot next door. Ill definitely be swinging by again! read more

Today was the Last Day . We've been here multiple times and it's definitely a hit or miss , overcooked an mushy with upset stomachs .. it's sad to see one of my favorite seafood places go down hopefully new management or new crew to refreshing the place up btw service is always good just not the food . read more

I ordered through Uber Eats. Very disappointed! Crab was not edible, old and overcooked I guess. Basically donated 90+ dollars. Crab mentality you must do much better, and especially with your food to be delivered. This food was shameful! Never ever again. read more

I've gotten food to go here twice. Unfortunately, it was overcooked and mushy each time. The shrimp specifically. Flavors are cool, but most certainly would've enjoyed if seafood wasn't overcooked. read more

Fisherman's Bounty is amazing. Once a week we eat on this place. Today I add a cup of rice and fish and fries as appetizer. Three of us have excellent dinner. read more

Best Cajun around, the food from pasta to crab is always fresh! The staff is always so nice and friendly. The restaurant is always clean and inviting, love coming here read more

We have dined here about 5 times already. Their sauce is pretty good. Not sure why they don't have anything in the display anymore. Would be nice and could bring in more customers. They don't have fountain drink anymore; just soda cans. Unfortunately for me I am NOT a Pepsi fan so I always have to resort to water. Service needs to improve. Would help if it is more welcoming, and paying attention to customers. read more

First time coming here and it looks fantastic. The menu is big but same with the prices that come with it. But it's seafood. Is it better than boiling crab and kicking Cajun, or how about crab shack? It is similar and well, I would say no but it is the same. I ordered the jumbo squid which came to $12.90 for the entire thing and boy was it good. It had alot of flavor, sweet sugary teriyaki flavor and high cholesterol, but it was really kicking. The other item was shared, it was a mild Cajun garlic shrimp pot which came with butter and potatoes. It also came with fat that was added to my belly. The price for the shrimp pot was about $20. Let me tell you, it still had the black stuff that you get inside the shrimp. They didn't clean it or cut off the head which was disappointing. The flavors were fattening and tasty. It was like I gained a couple inches below my chin of fat, the double chin. Parking outside is nice and the overall food court inside island pacific super market is nice and convenience is cool. The tables are uncomfortable and the service is great. The only negative is the pricetag and the fat. I recommend to come just because it is inside the Filipino food mart supermarket and give it a try. The wallet will bleed, but the mouths will water. The other places nearby are not as good in terms of value. The service is great compared to the neighbors. read more

Service was wonderful! I had a free drink just by checking in. Everything is disposable, they provide bibs and disposable gloves. Although we went to the grocery's restroom to wash our hands. It delivered what's written in the menu. I will definitely come back here once I get a chance. Swing by if you're cravinf for some fresh seafood bucket. read more

Food: GROSS....and I mean GROSS!!! Fried oysters smelled so fishy...yeah, because they were rotten!! Some "crab fat fried rice" was nothing more than some nasty white rice with some weird salty red gunk that wasn't even mixed consistently throughout, oh and it smelled too... And the winner....garlic noodles!!! WAY OVERCOOKED spaghetti noodles with no real garlic sauce...more like garlic powder that someone may have accidentally added...what a joke!! The best part, $30.00 and it was buy one get one free....now we know why!! After 5 minutes of poking at this mess but not being able to get past the smell, it ALL went in the trash!! Service: My wife placed our order at the counter and she said the service was fine. Kitchen pots were visible and heavily stained on the OUTSIDE....that should have been a dead giveaway!! Ambiance: Nasty.... Never again....thank you!! read more

Totally ripped off!!! My third time here. I hate leaving bad reviews, but unfortunately, lack of customer service is why I'm posting this. I ordered a pound of mussels, but the bag felt much lighter. I weighed it and got a reading of 0.15 pounds. it was a rip-off, but I thought it might have been a mistake, so I called the restaurant and explained the situation, but it was unbelievable how they reacted. I was told my scale was inaccurate. I sent photos as proof, only to be told that my scale was different from the one they used. I also purchased a pound of shrimp and a pound of clam, which all weighed a little over a pound with sauce. I sent photos showing my scale measuring the correct weight of unopened grocery products I had in my kitchen, but the only answer I got was that my scale was different from what they had, which made no sense to me. You should never go to a restaurant run by such a scammer!!! read more

Oh my God, the Fisherman's bounty, paired with french rolls and an appropriate wine, just heavenly. Be sure to ask for extra sauce with your order, better to have too much leftover sauce than not enough. So yummy. read more

Food is fantastic!! Service was... well she was pretty rude. "Excuse me, can I have another paper?" Response, "this paper is big enough to cover your table twice..." Well well alrighty then. But here you go, couldn't cover my table twice but it's okay. Save the planet read more

I loved the food the first time buying (takeout) my fave fried oysters and fries which were absolutely delicious and fried to perfection and thought that I'd found my new go to seafood spot. However, my second time getting the fried oysters was a total bust and I wished that I inspected my takeout before leaving the restaurant. My oysters were burnt and I couldn't even salvage one to eat, but the sweet potato fries were done to perfection. The deception turned me off from attempting to purchase from this spot for fear of losing $$ on another burnt entrée! read more

I went when it was buy one and get one free order. I ordered garlic shrimp with sausage and crab mentality shrimp. It was good. The sausage was bland though as though it was boiled for so long in the water. Service is ok. Ambiance is ok. Parking is good. I spent $28 with rice & a bottled water. read more

Food and price are okay, service was not bad but we went on a slow day. The ambiance is the only thing that made this review a four star. Everything else was nothing exceptional. read more

Hands down THEE best seafood boil / king crab legs in the SCV. Their fish and chips and garlic parm fries are yummy too for the less seafood hungry ones in our family. It's chilly inside so bring a jacket/sweater if you run cold! read more

My crab & rest of my seafood was definitely overcooked, not worth the price. You're better off finding an actual seafood boil place. Very disappointed. read more

Came based on the reviews and I was craving crab. We decided to get the Fisherman's Bounty. We also payed extra for an additional 1/2 pound of crab. Flavor was excellent, we got the Crab Mentality mix with a side of garlic butter for dipping. Payed $102.00 with the extras and two drinks. I don't mind paying for quality food. Quality was on point quantity was lacking. Description says 3 corn cobs, 6 sausages, and served with potatoes. We got 2 corn cobs, 3 sausages and NO POTATOES. And only got 1/2 lb of crab, and the smallest of the "King crab" legs . They were snow crab size. And TONS of shrimp and mussels .. they thought maybe I wouldn't notice that they charged me extra for crab that I never got ? Check your bag of seafood before you leave! read more

Hit or miss with this place. The last time we ordered, we ended up having upset stomachs. But the previous time we ordered, it was great.

Not exactly like The Boiling Crab but still just as good. We ordered takeout: 1lb of shrimp + sausage + corn on the cob / crab rice / garlic noodles / side of white rice. We got the shrimp with Crab Mentality Special sauce Mild which had a nice flavor with a bit of sweetness but wasn't spicy enough for us. So next time we'll know to get the next step up to Incredibly Hot. We ordered a side of extra sauce and thankfully we did because had we not, it wouldn't have been enough. I was able to finish the entire lb of shrimp and could have had more. The shrimp were nicely sized but did have lots of veins which other Yelpers mentioned but didn't really bother me much. The crab rice was pretty 'crabby'. The garlic noodles were good too but not as garlicky as I'd like it but it's my personal taste. It definitely satisfied my cravings and we will be back! read more

First off, do not get the shrimp and chips. The shrimp was literally microwaved & they were the size of my PINKY. Secondly, i got a half a pound of shrimp & was given like 5 shrimps in the bag. I've gone to boiling crab many times- that is not half a pound. DRIVE A LITTLE FARTHER & GO TO BOILING CRAB INSTEAD This place is a rip off read more

This place was a miss for me. My boyfriend and I were in the area so we stopped by this place to get some crab and shrimp. My Dungeness crab came out with both claws missing. It was a disappointment. Their house sauce was pretty garlic-y and buttery. The crab was boiled well. It tasted fresh despite the two missing claws. The shrimp was mediocre. It was nothing special. I ordered the aligue crab rice and that tasted pretty good but it was a bit on the bland since with the rice being slightly soggy. read more

Probably the best crab broil in the valley! Just happened to find this place while out Christmas shopping. The sauce was flavorful and the king crab was perfect! I added corn and potatoes which were good too, especially the potatoes! Looking forward to my next visit! read more

Yelp 2018 Challenge (02/100) I got a discounted offer from Local Flavor so we decided to try this place out. We got there around 5:45 on a Friday and got seated promptly. The place is located inside of the Island Pacific market so easy enough to find. We sat in a booth and were assaulted by sound of the blower over the door to the market which made it hard to hear. We each ordered something from the "chip" items. I got the fish and chips, my wife the shrimp and chips and my son the calamari and chips. The waitress got my order wrong and brought me the shrimp and chips in hindsight I wish I had kept it because the fish was small and it was greasy. My son and wife both thought their dishes were pretty good. So all in all a three star place as it was just okay. read more

The food was great, and the staff was helpful. Have been wanting to try this spot every time I go into the sea food store. Doesn't look like they get very busy, but maybe they need some help with marketing, which would boost their business some. If you don't go to that market, you won't ever know they're there. Overall it was fresh and full of spice. read more
