    Rainbow Roll
    Monica T.

    I ordered the aguachiles verdes, tostada de ceviche de camarón, and a rainbow roll--everything was absolutely delicious. The shrimp was incredibly fresh, and the salsa had amazing flavor. I'd never tried a rainbow roll with cream cheese before, but it was surprisingly good! We also really appreciated the generous amount of toppings on each dish. To top it off, the horchata and tamarindo agua fresca were both tasty and refreshing.

    Food was yummy and the server was very kind. We had a nice evening dinner with family and music in the background. It wasn't too busy for a Friday night.

    Ordené dos platillos para llevar y cuando llegue a mi casa encontré esto. Que asco el aguacate que echaron el aguacate en el otro si estaba bien pero casi no tenía mucho sabor el platillo. Dejé dos estrellas solo porque la señora de la caja fue amable

    Bag O Crab in Fullerton continues to be one of my reliable favorites. Good ambiance, very good…read moreseafood, and even better service. What impressed me this time was how well they handled a busy Friday evening with just three young staff members running the floor. They stayed calm, friendly, and on top of things. Christian especially stood out with his warm and affable personality, and the other two girls were also very helpful throughout. I have been here a few times now and the seafood has always been consistent. I keep coming back for the gumbo at lunch, and their shrimp platter is always a solid choice. Love this place and would recommend it any day.

Flavor profiles were not good :( Seafood was cooked well but no sauce really coating any other than the ones on the very bottom, flipped and tried soaking the other side of the bag but didn't help. Garlic noodles, not garlic goodness more of greasy goomess. Their fries were good Service was good Lemons were juicy Water was crisp and cold The spices were meh The amount of sauce was lacking Not sure if they are using oil in the sauce instead of butter but yuck I was really hoping for the best spot ever being close by but sadly we will continue driving

    I ordered 4 fish tacos and 1 carnitas sope. The fish taco…read morewas very crunchy and tasted delicious! Fresh cut veggies on top and we took salsa, sliced lemon, and hot yellow chile to eat with the fish taco- sorry no pic- we were way too hungry- next time yes on the photo. The 4 fish tacos in 1 container is EXTREMELY messy- the tacos overlap and when you're trying to pick it up it's all over everything and you end up tearing the tortilla! Next time I'll tell them 2 fish tacos in a to go container. Carnitas sope was delicious! The masa was soft the carnitas meat delicious it was covered with some lettuce, tomato, cheese- the bottom layer was refried beans- very tasty- I'd order it again but try another meat like Al Pastor. I added some of their salsa and it was very delicious! I wanted to get the watermelon agua fresca but my husband reminded me we had cold diet cokes waiting for us at home next time for sure! Try the fish tacos on Wednesdays- it's on special!

    I have not tried this place three times. First two times I called in the order and someone else…read morepicked up for me. This last time was my first time eating at the restaurant. Food has always been good. Tried the fish taco combo with rice and beans. I have also tried the shrimp ceviche and the fish ceviche. I would recommend it all. When you order the ceviche you get a good amount of ceviche and they give you two tostadas. If you are not very hungry a ceviche tostada is probably the right amount to order and under $10. If you are hungry, try one of the combos. This last time I tried it was this last Sunday at around 5pm. The place was packed inside and there were also a few people sitting outside. It was not very loud inside which was nice. Place was clean inside and out. Customer service has always been ok. From placing orders the phone to in person service.

    Located on birch street in Brea this resturant is located right next to the Improv & reunion…read moreResturant. For parking use the parking structures. There is a large bar area. It is very dim inside the environment, but the noise level was loud which was great for the group dinner i went for. The grilled oysters, center ribeye, Brussel sprouts, and creamed spinach was delicious! I would not get the charcuterie board or the gnocchi again just pricey for what it was. Now they have about ten choices for desserts but i loved the huge slice of carrot cake over the warm butter cake although that was good too. Overall the establishment was clean and the service was fast and everybody was friendly and professional. I will be coming back for sure.

    Fantastic meal. Went for my mom's 80th birthday and we weren't disappointed…read more Raw oysters: delicious and fresh Caviar: so good. Interesting little toasts they serve with it (used to blinis). Gave us a refill when we ran out. Porterhouse: huge! And cooked perfectly medium rare. Came with 2 sides of our choice and butter cake for dessert. Short ribs: delicious. My sister who eats like a bird finished the whole dish. Ribeye add lobster meat: the birthday girl wanted steak and lobster, so that's what she got! Cooked perfectly and she was very happy. Rack of lamb: sooooo good. Cooked medium rare. Great flavor. Came with a whole head of roasted garlic. SIDES: Gnocchi: Good flavor, big portion Broccolini: deliciously roasted Asparagus: very good with hollandaise Creamed corn: fantastic sweet creamy corn Butter cake: good portion! Wish it wasn't dusted with sugar crystals Carrot cake: massive slice. So yummy. Could have been a little more moist. Birthday dessert: chocolate mousse with coulis, I think (my mom didn't share lol!!!)--delicious, not too sweet. Bomb berry cocktail: red berry vodka, lemon, muddled raspberry. Too easy to drink lol. Also ordered the non-alcoholic version and it was really refreshing. Attentive and friendly service by all. Ambiance was so nice. Only wish they could have personalized the birthday celebration a little more by adding a name to the birthday dessert. It's so special to see your name and is an easy addition. Overall, would 100% go back. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

OMG! The garlic noodles with a splash of lime is a must. The staff were so attentive and often came to our table to fill our water cups and check if we needed anything else. A shout out to "Megan" for taking the time to chat with us and making our overall experience amazing! Megan was so personable and informative about Kickin Crab. Of all the other Kickin Crab locations I've been, Downtown Fullerton is definitely my favorite. My sister and I can't wait to tell our family and friends and come back for more delicious fresh seafood! Thank you! E & Y Sisters

    You'll notice I didn't post any pics, that's because I was so amazed with my meal I legit forgot to…read moresnap even a single picture! I had never been to Kickin' Crab before but the wife and I decided to check it out. We opted for a couple plated meals and apps so we could try more stuff instead of filling up on a seafood boil. But next time we're coming for the seafood boil! By the way, the entire staff was awesome, they were on top of everything and constantly running around. Every part of the meal came out very quick and piping hot, just the way it should. We started with cajun edamame which was very hot (temp) and full of cajun flavor. Will get again. We also got a cup of clam chowder and gumbo without rice. Both were, again, super hot (temp) and savory. The clam chowder had a ton of clams in it and the gumbo was filled with sausage and shrimp. We ordered some sausage on the side just to try it out and it was a perfect side dish. Katie got the shrimp platter which was a bunch of shrimp in garlic butter, served with rice, and lots of garlic chips on top. If you love garlic and don't mind peeling the shrimp this is the perfect plate for you. I got the tilapia plate which is cooked in cajun rub and garlic butter over red rice and a side of broccoli. This was my all time favorite tilapia dish ever. It was crispy on the outside, fully covered in seasoning, cooked perfectly, and the rice was so fluffy. Seriously one of my top 10 favorite meals of all time. They also have a full bar if you like cocktails. The whole dining room is ocean themed with a lot of tables to sit at. You can choose your spice level on just about anything so go crazy if you enjoy it spicy!! Needless to say I will be back, and I'll get pics next time.
