Jose was the best server!!! He always helped make the right decision for the family and was always cracking jokes. The food was top notch and had a lot of flavor!!! Manager was also wonderful super sweet and didnt have any problems there!! Definitely recommend!!! read more

Its a nice place, food is good, just need to be careful about their menu there are hidden days that you can order. We when in for the all you can eat, that was decline because it was a mon - thurs only. Well that wasnt spelled out on the billboard that was off the 10th street exit and its not stated on the store front. So we decide to order off the menu and saw lunch special so we try to order off that and was told its a weekday deal only. But they were able to honor the lunch deal. I would recommend the crab fries, the fish po' boy and the 1/2 mussels plate read more

Hit or miss sometimes it's really good and sometimes it's not all that but never so bad that I can't finish it

Girls night out was a blast! We got so much food left full and even got a free side for being checked in on yelp. We will be back :) Service was good. You pay before you eat and it's very casual. read more

So I got the Cajun pasta with shrimp thinking it would be as delicious as before and it definitely was not. Price has increased but flavor is just not there. Not sure if they changed chefs but it used to have pieces of shrimp with a lotta Cajun sauce and now it's oily with hardly any Cajun flavor and 3 big shrimp with a few bits of sausage. I personally don't eat sausage so I had to throw that away but, if you're going to add sausage to the dish then you have to change the description or name of the item. The pasta isn't even on the online menu so the restaurant seems a bit disorganized. Very disappointed and won't be going to this restaurant again. read more

The food was great! The place really matches that seafood vibe in the middle of a desert. Talking about authenticity, Kyla(our server) did a really great job in providing us the full blast experience of how great this place is! Always giving out her best energy and her knowledge of the menu that helped us, first timers to have a better understanding of the menu. Loved the amount of serving they gave us food-wise, and would HIGHLY recommend this to my peers! A must try food place! Kudos to kyla for always giving out your best in everything! You're doing a really great job! read more

I drove to Crab N spice 2 weeks ago expecting to have the AYCE dinner. It was on a Sunday and I was told they only serve all you can eat dinners on Mon-Thurs. I was pissed off because I live in Lake Los Angeles which is a 25 mile drive to the restaurant. I made the 25 mile trip there again today, Monday Feb 16th only to find a sign written with a magic marker which said no all you can eat tonight. This place is not what it claims to be! It's like driving 25 miles to a Chinese restaurant and seeing a sign in the window that says "Sorry, we're only serving hamburgers tonight". So far this place wasted my gas twice. I am never going back there again. It's not worth the time, effort, wear and tear on my car never mind burning up the fuel to get there. If you claim to be an AYCE establishment then it should be that way all of the time without any games, gimmicks or somebody making an arbitrary decision that they are not going to have AYCE that night! This place is a joke! A very bad joke. read more

If you haven't tried their all you can eat weekday deal you are missing out! I should've tried it way sooner! The staff is really friendly and nice. They let you know what of time that for all you can eat you have to pay first because they've had problems with people eating and leaving without paying. Totally understandably. What to expect, first of all snow crab and lobster are extra. They have two menu options but understanding the higher option you only get one cluster of crab legs. To me the lower option which is $36.99 and comes with a drink was great on its own. When you order you get 4 choices of seafood, sauce, and 4 sides. The awesome thing is you decide how much except for the scallop that's 6 flat each order. But for the shrimp, mussel, crawfish you let them know how many pounds of each which is awesome! You also have a large set of sides to choose from which includes wings! Now keep in mind everything is fresh and made to order so be patient and expect a little wait in between each order but trust me the wait is worth it. Quality and fresh ingredients. It's soooo good! If you have the chance Monday through Thursday definitely come by and try it out, you won't regret it! read more

Me and my boyfriend always eat here but we went last week and we got our usual pound a shrimp and paired with thai tea. We received our thai tea and it was pure milk and I usually i'll just not say anything but i drank some and my stomach started hurting immediately, i decided to ask for some tea to add more and the lady brought me more very nice of her, and in our order i got spicy sauce and my boyfriend ordered mild because he doesn't like to eat spicy food and we got our order and they mixed up the spices so i had mild my boyfriend had spicy and we didn't realize till after because my bag only had corn and my boyfriends only potato. Once we left after eating, my stomach started hurting immediately and i felt very bloated and i went to the bathroom and I was in the bathroom for 30 minutes straight. I loved the food here and there was an older lady who was usually there and nothing would ever go wrong and no food issues and nor my stomach ever hurting, but I feel like the new people don't try their best. I do not think I will be coming back. read more

Crab N Spice - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Palmdale, California

Today, I had the best experience at Crab N Spice. My initial meeting of employees was Kyla and she presented exemplary attitude, expedient service, and great attention. My wife ordered the Captains Meal and was beyond satisfied. I ordered the Haddock and Chicken wings with Cajun fries. The Haddock was perfectly cooked with a great portion, the chicken wings ( all flats) were perfectly crispy and juicy, the fries were crispy and seasoned well with Cajun seasoning. I highly recommend this restaurant and great praise to the morning shift and specifically Kyla. Thank you Crab N Spice. read more

I was invited for a birthday party lunch, there were 10 of us. The celebrant ordered the food. The server said there is no cooked rice, it will take a while to cook. The reason was manager called in sick and that's not a good enough reason. It's about 1:30 pm on a Sunday and that's a late lunch. So I can't quite understand why they were not ready for lunch service. Service is great except for that rice excuse and food is excellent. read more

This place is truly wonderful. My sister and I have been coming since 2023, and every visit has been great. The food is consistently delicious, and the service is exceptional. Whether it's your first visit or your twentieth, Misty always goes above and beyond so it definitely adds to the experience. I look forward to coming in when she's there. read more

Best Seafood boil in AV. Definitely fairly priced, you get a lot for what you pay. Taste wise, it's great. Customer service it's good. The only downsides it's that you need a physical card or cash(no tap due to them getting frequently scammed), and sometimes it being a small space the wait time it's kinda long. But not a big deal. Great restaurant, definitely worth trying. read more

The food was great, it was prepared and ready at the time they stated that it would be. The staff was friendly and helpful!

Just wanted to stop by and say the food was great. We stopped by around 1:45 PM today walked in there. The lady had seven tables what are the tables with a family of 10 so she was busy she was doing the best that she could after us being there 10 minutes another young lady worker walked in I was very happy that the other lady was gonna get help, but to my surprise she didn't help her at all in fact by the time she walked in she didn't get a table until like 15 minutes later she was just in the corner, standing there near the phone or the register. If that would've been me, I would've asked the young lady that was already there if she needed help with her current customers to see if they had drinks or to check on them at least this is the employees understand that we are watching. It's not that we're being Karen. It's just that if you don't go in there and help it affects us as well. read more

I did not enjoy my experience I ordered 1 pound of shrimp and add ons but most definitely was not a pound without my add ons it was ridiculous how small amount of shrimp! Then while eating and hands messy i was told I needed to pay before I finished--mid bite and no-one informed me of this rule so I had to rummage through my purse and touch money because they failed to say anything to me the first place. Over all not worth coming back. Just go to PIER 88!! read more

Great food and awesome service. Every time we get food from here it reminds me of being with my family in New Orleans!!

Horrible service , they said no matter what your health and allergies are they are going to charge you for you just sitting in their Establishment.... My guy can't eat seafood and we explained that but still wanted to charge him just to be sitting in there with me doesn't make sense but I see California mostly Palmdale loves losing service and money read more

Went yesterday for dinner and it was AMAZING!!!! everything was delicious the snowcrab was So Sweet! Kayla was our server and she is So Sweet and Pleasant!!! Such a great Smile! She made me feel so Warm! She made sure we were good n kept checking on us!! Can't wait to go back!!!! So Yummy!!! read more

Seafood boil and flavor is good; i enjoy the crawfish very much! The spicy isn't actually spicy so it's pretty mild. I've gotten most take out here and it's been enjoyable each time. However, I dined in today and the server had the most unpleasant attitude. Older female server would be nice in one interaction and the next, I felt she was so annoyed with us but we were so friendly to her! She also handed us the check after we ordered which was odd, so I asked her we had to pay first? Because I wasn't use to that. She just looked at me with wide eyes and said "yea" and walked away, no explanation nothing. Thankfully there was a small sign and realized it's their policy due to people dine and dashing. Regardless, we didn't feel very welcomed. Not sure if I would dine in again but overall food is good. Not the best seafood boil ever but good for the area! read more

Crawfish was not fresh or cooked right. I could taste the frozen flavor of the crawfish. Did the all you can eat combo. read more

The food was better than I thought it would be. I would definitely eat there again, I don't like the fact that you have to buy sauce if you're not ordering seafood. The service was ohk, and they are pretty prompt. The spice level was nice for the medium heat. read more

Service was awful, definitely dine out. The server didnt come back to the until we were damn near finish. Food was pretty good though

Our first experience was amazing. Our second, not so much. All three of us had horrific food poisoning, with symptoms within no more than an hour of leaving the restaurant. We all had crab. read more

Not this location ever again. First you pay first, its kinda small and when I got to go boxes,the Asian girl gave me a plastic tray not a bag and definitely wasn't assisting with it. I had to ask for a bag because that's what you served it to us in. So what's the tip for?? The guy barely checked on us. If you pay up front there is no incentive to even do a good job. Also, we waited for a booth to clear and as soon as one did some black guy waited for his to go order and sits in it and politely told him we were waiting for it, if looks could kill. Any other establishment a to go order wait in that area or outside. This location is just ratchet. read more

I absolutely love this place the flavor is like no other. The only thing I have to complain about is that they do not have a changing table in their bathroom. As a family restaurant I don't understand why they don't have one. My newborn had a blowout while eating here and unfortunately we weren't able to enjoy our food as I could not change him there. read more

Kyla = QUEEN of Crab N Spice Let me just say this... if you walk into Crab N Spice and Kyla is working, you've already won. Game over. You are about to have one of the BEST dining experiences of your life. From the moment I sat down, Kyla greeted us with such good energy I was ready to order the entire menu just to stick around longer. She's got the perfect mix of personality friendly, funny, fast, and just a little bit of "you better finish those crab legs or I'll help you" vibes . She recommended exactly what to get (she's got the insider scoop no pun intended ), timed every round of food like clockwork, and somehow managed to check on our table right when we needed extra napkins, more sauce, and that all-important crab-cracking encouragement speech. At one point, I was knee deep in a seafood bag, looking like I was fighting for my life, and Kyla walked by and casually said, "Don't let that lobster tail win." I nearly choked laughing it was hilarious and the motivation I didn't know I needed. The vibe was amazing, and Kyla had a hand in making the entire night memorable. 10/10 would come back just to sit in her section again. If Crab N Spice ever gives out MVP awards, Kyla deserves a trophy shaped like a butter-drenched crab claw. Pro tip: If you see Kyla, trust her recommendations, laugh at her jokes, and get ready for an epic night. read more

DO NOT TIP WHEN ORDERING ONLINE. I made an online ordered and made the mistake of tipped ahead. The order was ready 30 minutes after the pick up time. There was no communication about the delay. I asked to have my tip refunded due to the terrible service. The person pretended to refund the tip. After reading other reviews it seems like they don't do any refund for the online orders. To make matters worse the food was terrible. The shrimp was over cooked. They were squishy and hard to peel. It was very oily with minimal flavoring. We will no longer return to this location. Management needs to improve customer service and quality of their food. read more

It was ok.... I got the all in sauce and it wasn't very seasoned. They also make the black people pay before ordering and others can pay when they're done eating. They blamed it on a group of people running up a $900 bill and leaving, but you can't make everyone suffer because of that. Overall, for the price I would go again but eating at the restaurant itself????? Never again. read more

We went for the all you can eat experience, they only offer it during the week for a certain time. Even the food we got was not worth it. The sauce was just oil read more

The food and service has gotten way better. Especially this time of year the crawfish were big and fresh. Just too bad that a few people that dine and dash ruined it for everyone and they charge you at the beginning of your meal. Having to get a second round of drinks is a hassle when you're elbow deep in crawfish sauce. Other than that it's our go to spot in AV. read more

I have been here twice within the last 6 months and had the same cashier lady both times. She always has a nasty attitude and acts like she is being bothered when you ask questions about their menu. The first time I went I thought I was just over thinking the encounter and hey everyone has a bad day here and there so I let it go. The second time I was with my daughter and the lady acted the same way again. It made me and my daughter so uncomfortable. We will not be back and we told all of our family and friends not to go there either read more

To be honest 100% this restaurant it's the TEMU VERSION of The Boiling Crab and pier 88 boiling crab. They make you pay u front with the excuse of many people dine and dash but I think that's not the case I think they make you pay up front because they now their food it disgusting. We order 4LBS of seafood and the back was only a quarter full. And paid $80 dollars for quarter of extremely disgusting food we couldn't even eat it and left. If you want quality boiled seafood go to the boiling crab. Very disgusting and upset to say the least. read more
