Our server Tara was amazing, our party was 9 people and it was our first time. She was very patient and very knowledgeable about menu. She knew the spice levels very well and help accommodate our versions allergies. Everything was fresh, good and so flavorful. We got the shrimp, crawfish, mussels, and snow crab and I can't decide what was best because it was all amazing. The crawfish size was bigger than most places I've been. The flavors you could taste and it wasn't just salty. Definitely a must try. It was so good we forgot to get pictures of everything.

Definitely a spot to revisit. The food and service is unmatched and I'll fursure be back again…read more PS. Our server Tara was amazing! She took great care of us. Thank you Tara

Flew into LAX and mentioned to my Pops that I was craving dungeness crab. He said "Let's go get…read moresome!" and told him "Say less". I saved this spot as it (no lie) came up when I asked chatgpt what was the best place in the LA area to get whole dungeness crab so I already had it saved as a back up. We arrived a little after they opened on a Thursday. There was another couple but we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. What we swallowed: *WHOLE DUNGENESS CRAB WITH CORN AND GARLIC NOODLES side: This was spot on. We ordered the mix seasoning (cajun and lemon pepper), mild with added corn. The sauce was sticky and gooey. I took the meat out of the crab and topped the crab meat with the sauce. It was SOOOO good. The garlic noodles were good, more garlic then flavor but it was still good. Topped that with the crab sauce too, lol. *FRIED OYSTERS WITH FRIES: The oysters were hot and tasty. They didn't have a weird after taste like some oysters do. Topped these with the crab sauce too. lol We really enjoyed our time here. There is parking in the back and code for the bathroom. The server was really attentive and made sure our experience was great. I'd definitely come back when I'm in town!

I really, really wanted to like this place y'all...I went with my son and we ordered the all you…read morecan eat, Louisiana hot. First off, the all you can eat is a set basket of food, meaning you get mussels, shrimp, clams, crawfish, potatoes, garlic noodles, corn and their daily basket. You cannot pick you are forced to get all these items. Whatever, not that big of a deal but really not great. The price is 38.99 a person, okay got it. It takes them so long...so long!! Just for us to order, a bit disappointed honestly. The food arrives decently fast. I dig in, Mama B is hungry y'all! The shrimp is cheap, okay. Small, fishy, rubbery Walmart type of shrimps. The corn plasticy, cheap and just disgusting. The potatoes, poorly cooked and under seasoned. The clams... no notes. Now at this point Mama B is scared y'all...I wasn't trying to get food poisoning. I'm disappointed, honestly the most flavourless seafood boil I have ever had the displeasure of eating. What's horrifying is the bill was $91...$91!!!! I feel like this math is just not mathing. I believe the tax is ridiculously high and possible charged for water cups? I really truly could've made a mean Walmart seafood boil for a cheaper price, that'd actually be seasoned... Not Mama B approved, go elsewhere.

From other reviews, the restaurant has parking in the back. * Meal: if you like seafood and KBBQ, look no further! 5 stars. * Service: friendly and pleasant. 4 stars. This restaurant came up on my IG feeds... looks awesome... we were not disappointed! The restaurant does not take reservations online. We came on a weeknight, found a street parking right infront and got seated right away (scored!) They have 4 tower sets: crew set ($109) serving 1-2 persons, chief set ($159.99) serving 3-4, master ($219.99) serving 4-5, captain ($299) serving 5-6. They also have a la carte, hot pot, etc. We had crew set which includes 1.4 lbs Manila clams, 2 whole shell oyster, large clams, shrimps, mussles, scallops, octopus, potatoes, served with korean ceviche, steam egg, pancake, spicy rice cakes, korean noodle soups. There are 3 different dipping sauces which are delicious. It is a lot of food. You definitely get your money worth here. The staff is friendly and attentive. They cooked the seafood at the table. The air ventilator is pretty good but I probably won't wear my must dry-clean clothes to dine here. Overall, Burnin' Shell did live up to its hype!

Alaska seafood is located in LA and it is one of our favorites when we are craving seafood! We used…read moreto go to the location in San Pedro before it closed for construction and then we ended up finding this location which is much closer! Parking can be a bit tough at times because it's always packed! The restaurant has a lot of seating as well as a patio outside! They have a pretty decent size menu and a lot to choose from! When you walk in you wait in line and if you're ordering fish, you can pick out which one you want. After they write up your order, you pay and then they will call your number when it's ready! We normally order the tilapia fish, Camarones enchipotlados, the shrimp tempura plate, garlic bread and steamed rice. There hasn't been one time where I left hungry! They give you good portions and everything is so tasty. The fish is cooked to perfection, the shrimp and the chipotle sauce is to die for and the tempura shrimp are so yummy! Overall, this is a place where you could come over and over again and never get tired of it! If you're looking for great seafood in the LA area, definitely checkout Alaska Seafood, they will not disappoint!

We forgot how difficult it can be to find parking in LA, but we managed to find one on the side of the road, just to find out... this restaurant has their own parking lot. Hehe. Went around 5pm and saw we were the first ones seated while a handful of people came and gone for to go orders. I immediately ordered the soy marinated crab and live uni. There is a combo order of both, but it includes the American marinated crab and an extra small live uni. With their recommendation, we opted for the Korean marinated crab and small uni to share with 2 adults and one kid. When the food came out, they gave us another live uni on the house and I was so happy because I didn't want to share mine! The food was so homey and delicious. The seafood pajeon was so loaded with all the seafood bits and the soy bean soup was the perfect palette cleanser. Service was great and they were so helpful to answer any questions we had. They gave us extra water for our little one and refilled our tea when it was a fourth full. They were so tentative and asked how we liked the food. We loved it. We also enjoyed the banchan!

Definitely recommend this place!…read more Service was very warm and welcoming, had such a pleasant dinner. We got the set menu A Combo and the portion was very generous. The marinated crab was very delicious, and spicy crab was even better, but the marinated crab is definitely higher quality, so if you want to get the best of both worlds order both or get the combo. When we finished ordering, appetizers came immediately and basically covered the whole table, and as a Korean restaurant with such warm hospitality I assume you can get more side dishes if you want, but we didn't want to waste any food. All dishes tasted great. The uni wasn't very surprising but it's still good, so if you are doing à la carte you can skip it. All in all a 5+ for the restaurant, also the restroom seems pretty clean so it's another plus for this smallish restaurant.

It was perfectly pleasant, though be warned: foot traffic passes just a few feet away. I kicked things off with a martini, which was excellent--surprisingly generous by today's standards and a real deal at $12. For starters, I had the Caesar salad. Think tuxedo at a pool party: definitely overdressed. But it was delicious, and I'd order it again--just with light dressing. The fish sandwich was fine, nothing more. I couldn't help thinking McDonald's might edge them out on the Filet-O-Fish (though it's been decades, so who knows). It wasn't bad; I'd just try something different next time.

If you're near East Hollywood and craving seafood/oysters, look no further than Found Oyster…read more Especially during happy hour which I believe is 4-6pm during the week. $10 dirty martinis, they are small but mighty so be careful. As for the food let's get into it: - Smoked Trout Dip (9/10) surprisingly one of our favorite dishes, packed a lot of flavor and paired perfect with the crackers. - Sicilian Crudo (10/10) I've had this at other places, but found oyster does it right. Will be adding caviar next time. - Oysters (8/10) prices were reasonable and the oysters themselves were delicious. Wish they had Kumamoto oysters but their selection was more local. - Clam Chowder (7/10) Wasn't terrible, but I prefer a more thicker chowder. Still, at $9 a cup I would give it another try. Overall a great experience. The service was really good especially at the bar. Would I go again? Absolutely!

I'd long wanted to try Found Oyster as one of my friends recommended it several years ago and said…read morehow good it was. Back then, they didn't take reservations, but I noticed recently that they started accepting reservations via Resy, so I made a reservation and my husband and I came here in March. Found Oyster is located in East Hollywood, on the same street where Saffy's is. It can be a bit hard to find street parking nearby because of neighborhood rules, but we managed to find a spot after circling a bit. The restaurant is very small, but it has both indoor and outdoor seating. I think the size of it adds to the charm. It also has a nautical theme inside and a New England feel about the place. The seating options inside are either at the bar, or tiny high-top tables. For appetizers, we shared the peel and eat prawns, half a dozen oysters and the sicilian crudo. Everything was good, but the servings were smaller than I expected. I also think that the peel and eat prawns would have been pretty mediocre without the special sauce. For mains, my husband got the lobster roll, while I had the mussels. His lobster roll was good, but in my experience it's hard to go wrong with buttered lobster on bread served with fries. My mussels were fresh and tasty. They were good, but nothing to write home about. Service was friendly and efficient.

This place came on my radar because I was dining at a really nice restaurant and was talking about aguachiles. The waitress at that restaurant overheard me and recommended this truck. But I also saw that this truck had really good tacos so I wanted to try everything on my visit. I ended up getting one of the combos which isn't cheap but seafood rarely is. I got the aguachile negro, a fish al pastor taco, and a soft shell crab taco. She wasn't kidding - the aguachile was fantastic although I will have to go mild next time. The tacos had really great flavors and textures. A truly wonderful meal. I would say this place is a hidden gem but honestly, it's front and center in a very busy part of a very busy area. Really love this truck and want to come back soon.
