What a great sub to Boiling Crab in my opinion. I'm local to Grab A, figured to give it a shot with my buddies and wasn't disappointed. The manager, Eric, provided a great service and was super chill. Even put the NBA playoff game on for us haha. read more

Came to Bag O' Crab on a Sunday night and the place was packed, but our server Kain was incredibly attentive and helpful the entire time. We ordered the Combo #2, which came with four appetizers and four classic seafood options (including crab). Everything came out quickly and was absolutely delicious. One of the fun perks here is that you can earn tokens for a chance to win free items, which adds a nice extra touch to the experience. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're craving seafood with great service! read more

Came here for the first time wanting to try some an alternative for some cajun broil. Came here on a Saturday night and waited for about 15-20 mins which wasn't too bad. Line started forming when we got here so came at a good time. Plenty of seating and tv's for entertainment here as they were showing cartoons one one tv and the basketball game on another so definitely ideal for a family here. We were given 4 tokens; one for each kid for their claw machine. However, the claw machine wasn't as friendly as I didn't see anyone win that night. We ordered their Combo which came with sausages, shrimp, potatoes and clams. They did forget our clams at first. Appetizers we chose their sweet potato fries, lemon pepper wings and gumbo. Food overall was ok. The flavor wasn't too bad as it's comparable to other cajun broil places. Just wasn't a fan of the corn as it wasn't really cooked properly. Pricing here wasn't bad and service was ok. Friend said they came a couple of months ago and still getting their alcohol license at the time. When we went, they were still waiting for their alcohol license so be warned that they don't serve alcohol here yet. read more

my friend and i stopped by after seeing the resturant on grand opening back a while ago - the interior was decorated nicely and smelled like seafood (as expected haha) - we ordered the combo for two (4.3/5). we picked two shrimps for our classic seafood with mild spicy and the grab-a-crab house sauce. for our classic appetizers, we got fries (regular & cajun) and cajun chowder. we also asked for lemon, salt, and pepper on the side. the whole meal was very filling as it was indeed enough for the both of us. however, it was a bit on the salty side as we continued eating the seafood but it wasn't really noticeable on the saltiness in the beginning. - we got two tokens to use on their crane machine to exchange for free food..however we didnt win anything but it was a fun little thing that this resturant had. - the service was fast and the workers assisted us with our needs overall, this was a nice seafood boil place to try out read more

Grab A Crab - combo for two - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Came on a tuesday and they gave is 4 tokens for a party of 6 for the claw machine. Sadly we didnt win any plush but we were close. Ordered 2 lbs of crawfish, combo for 2 with onion rings and upgraded calamari and popcorn chicken. My friend decided on getting the membership which was 10.99 or 11.99 and you get 2 lbs of seafood, appetizer, and 5% cashback. Her kid wanted the snowcrab so tuesday was the best day because it was 14.99/ cluster. This only happens on your first membership purchase, otherwise it will just be their daily specials. I ordered rice but it was really dry. I didnt like that they brought it out first and since it was busy, it took about 20 minutes for our boil to come out. By that time my rice was kind of cold but since i mixed it with sauce, it was bearable. The crawfish was also frozen. Sauce needs more garlic but i guess to some this amount would be perfect. Limes were cut soo small you had to squeeze 10+ to fill your salt and pepper cup. They give you a clamp and scissors to cut the snow crab so thats a plus. No alcohol yet but i was told they would have it im a month. Will have to check after March or april. Service was great, my water was refilled multiple times. read more

This location of Grab A Crab is in Monterey Park in the Atlantic Time Square. There is parking in the underground structure. My boyfriend and I have been fans of Grab A Crab since we've been to their location in Hacienda Heights so I was happy to try this new location. For those who have not been to Grab A Crab, they are a cajun boil restaurant. A fun attraction they have are their crane games where each table gets tokens and you can win ingredients for your boil. This location is smaller than their Hacienda Heights location but it seems less busy. They have a Yelp Waitlist you can hop on if you come during a busy time. We came here with my boyfriend's friends, so there was a total of 4 of us. It made sense to get their Combo for 4 ($79.95) which comes with 4 Classic Seafood, 4 Classic Appetizers, 4 pieces of sausages, 2 potatoes, 2 pieces of corn and 2 eggs. We added 2 corns ($1.75/each). For the classic seafood we picked 2 lbs of shrimp, 1 lb of crawfish, and 1lb of snow crab legs, which there was an upgrade for. And for the appetizers we picked the fries, onion rings, gumbo and chicken tenders, which was also an upgrade ($3.50). We actually added another lb of shrimp ($11.99/lb) after we finished the first order. We all enjoyed the food for the most part. Their shrimps were big and juicy. The crawfish were decent for not being in season. We did observe a few things like less garlic in the sauce. As for the sides, the chicken tenders were surprisingly good. The fries and onion rings were average. Too heavy for me to eat too much of it, but good for the boys to fill up. Service at this location seems to be lacking. Missing items like the salt, peppers, limes, sauces for appetizers, multiple follow ups. Keep having to waive them down for things. It's funny that this location is less busy but less on top of things compared to their Hacienda Height location. Great spot for a Cajun boil, especially when you don't want to wait. Their combos used to be a lot better but they've split them into classic and premium items, and a lot of the items we used to get are now premium and requires upgrade. Nevertheless I can see us coming back. read more

I am glad that Atlantic Times Square is somewhat reviving. This is one of the newest establishments that I have been meaning to try. My wife and I shared a combo for 2. We got mussels and shrimp, cajun chowder, sweet potato fries and onion rings as our side. Everything tasted fresh and I did not get explosive diarrhea afterwards unlike at boiling crab. Service was great. The only negative is that they did not have draft beer although it was on the menu. read more

Grab A Crab - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

I find myself going to grab a crab more often than any other seafood boil place now! My friends and I absolutely love their combos for 2 or 4 since they come with sides for a great price! The service has also been amazing. Not to mention, the claw machines are such a great touch to the brand! The chowder is such an underrated item there, and I recommend that as part of the combo! It does get busy at certain times but there's a yelp waitlist, and its also in the atlantic time square so you can walk around while you wait. read more

Grab A Crab - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Food is good . . Even though it has been loosing its touch . Came here about a week and half ago & it didn't hit like usual , we always ask for it slightly undercook to avoid the mushy & it was so mushy . My girl loved her but I told her I didn't hit for me . The wings are not the same for when we first grabbed them . The second time was different & the 3rd time they were very disappointing . I have a picture when we first ordered the wings and they look so tasty and appetizing. This last time they looked as if they were old wings . . . We also tried to dine in prior to the time when the wings were terrible & we arrived to the front door at 9:25 they told us . We can't dine in no more . So we somewhat understood . And today we arrived at 9:17and we were denied tables again due to slow business. When we were told last table sit down is 9:30 Very disappointed we drive 35 min to get here knowing we would make it on time . But nope . They also denied dine in service to another couple . I get it times can be slow . But you had 2 customers ready to spend . Sucks that this was our go to , cus it might not be anymore . So much for the new business location to thrive . ( hangry ) mind you this may be very irrelevant but b.s aside I'm on 5 days water only fasting . I kid you not I was going here just to break my fast and eat delicious . Maybe next time I guess . Even though I work from 7 am to 10 pm and I be getting out of work just to come here and make it on time . Lolol . So sad I had to come express myself here read more

We randomly discovered this place and honestly can't believe how good the deals are. Everything was already reasonably priced, but the specials took it to another level. They normally have a combo deal for two people (around $46) that includes 2 pounds of seafood (shrimp, clams, etc.), sausage, potatoes, corn, two sides, and a fried item. We were planning to do the 2-lb shrimp combo, but when we came in on a Tuesday evening, they had even better offers. We got 5% cash back on the entire bill and snow crab legs for $14.99 per pound, which is an incredible deal. On top of that, we signed up for their membership ($10.99/year), and it immediately paid for itself we got 2 pounds of shrimp for free (1 lb for signing up + 300 bonus points). Total no-brainer. The shrimp quality was great, huge size shrimps and fresh.. The sauce was really good as well. Minor note: everything is served in a large cylinder-style plate, so the sauce pools at the bottom and you have to dig a bit to get it (similar to a bag at Boiling Crab). Not a dealbreaker, just something to note. Huge shoutout to our server Ahrian!! incredibly kind, attentive, knowledgeable, and gave great recommendations. Service alone made the experience even better. The ambience was fantastic: vibrant colors, fun wall decor, lots of TVs, and a lively atmosphere. When we walked in, they even gave us two free coins for the claw machine, which was such a cute touch. If you win, you get a free meal, which is such a fun incentive. One important note: while the food is amazing, this is not a place I'd consider safe for toddlers. We have two-year-old twins and came for date night (without them), and after seeing the setup, we wouldn't bring them here at this age. Also, if you're someone who sucks the sauce off shrimp heads like I do...be careful. I ended up poking the inside of my mouth because the shells were very sharp and bled a little. Overall, we had an amazing experience! food, service, deals, and atmosphere were all on point. We're already members now and will 100% be coming back read more

What a wonderful experience! Grab A Crab in Atlantic Times Square across from the Marriott was great taste for great value. It was empty at open at 12 on a Saturday. To start, each table gets two tokens to try out the claw machine for a fun start to the dining experience. We ordered the Combo for 2 which includes 2 classic seafoods, 3 classic apps, 4 sausages, 2 potatoes, and 1 corn, and added a pound more of shrimp for our party of three for about $70. There wasn't enough sauce originally, but they kindly provided us more at no cost- and that sauce is good! It's flavorful, thick, and garlicky. The shrimp is the star of the show, and the mussels were nice to try but not worth a repeat. The lemon pepper and Cajun fries were both good options as well. read more

Everything here was super tasty! We got the sauce that was a combination of all three sauces, and I highly recommend. The combo pots were also very good value. Service was quick and efficient. The funnest part of the experience was that each table gets two coins to play their crane machine. You can keep the plushy if you're able to grab it, or you can exchange it for free items on the menu. Super fun and great value, tasty food. Highly recommend! read more

Grab A Crab - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

I really really enjoyed this place actually! I went with a group of four and got the combo with 4 seafood and 4 appetizers, and it was more than enough food for all of us! Plus such a good deal. We went on a Saturday around 6pm, and luckily we got seated immediately. Hooray! Lucky us. The restaurant didn't seem too busy. It gave me nautical vibes and the vibes of any seafood boil place -- well lit and it a nice plaza. Free parking. It was good! The food itself was good. I feel like all the seafood felt on the smaller side but maybe not much is in season? We got the house sauce medium, but it wasn't that spicy. Could've gone a spice level up! They didn't have alcohol yet but it's coming soon, so I'll be back for sure :) read more

Grab A Crab - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

Came here the other night with a friend and the place was pretty busy but the service was good. We ordered the combo for two with shrimp and mussels in the house special spicy sauce. For sides we got Cajun fries, fried oysters, and fried fish. The seafood came out fresh and loaded with sauce. The shrimp were nice and big and cooked perfectly with no sogginess. The mussels were on the smaller side but packed with flavor. The sauce was good but a little salty, and the spicy level definitely had a kick. Next time I'd probably go medium. Everything tasted great, including the potatoes, corn, and sausage. You should definitely get a bowl of rice to soak up all that sauce. The Cajun fries were good, the fried fish was excellent and probably my favorite fried item, and the oysters were just okay. They also have a membership you can sign up for to get some perks. You even get a coin to play the claw machine and try to win food or plushies, which is pretty cool. I'd definitely come back again. read more

Grab A Crab - Snow crab cluster with house sauce (all three flavor options combined). - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Monterey Park, California

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner and were pleasantly surprised by how short the wait was. From the start, service was friendly, efficient, and attentive without feeling rushed. We got the Combo for 2, which is a great value and perfect if you want to sample a little bit of everything. For our seafood picks, we chose the deveined shrimp (definitely worth the $2 upcharge) and the snow crab legs. As for appetizers, we decided on the fried calamari, cajun chowder, and onion rings. Everything came out piping hot and tasted super fresh. The house sauce was rich, garlicky, and packed with flavor. A fun little bonus: you get a token to try your luck at the claw machine. We gave it a shot (no win this time), but it added a playful touch to the experience. The only downside is how tightly packed the seating is. Tables and chairs are pretty close together, making it a bit tricky to navigate and not the most private dining setup. That said, the food and overall experience definitely outweighed that minor inconvenience. I'll absolutely be back the next time a seafood boil craving hits. read more

Customer service at this place was great, no issues at all. They sat us down right away once we added ourselves to the wait list. Took our order pretty quick and were always attentive. Food quality was pretty good, all flavors were delicious but I would have to say lemon pepper was by far the best. Ordered shrimp, crawfish, the Dungeness crab, garlic noodles and garlic bread. Shrimp was better from the three. Place can get packed real quick. The garlic noodles had way too much garlic for my liking but it can be perfect for others. I honestly had no issues with the place but one thing and that was the "Market Price" of the Dungeness Crab, I have never paid $75 for a Dungeness crab in my life, I feel like this was over priced on purpose because the current market price for this type of crab is not $75. Either way place was good but would definitely stay away from the market price items. read more

12/21/2025 - I read the Yelp review regarding a recent 1-star rating, but noticed many 5-star ratings recently, I decided to come at 12:00 PM on time when the restaurant was just opened a few seconds to avoid any bad service experience from a 1-star rating from one customer! As my expected, the food like Seafood Lovers (choose 2 lobster tails) we ordered are excellent, especially the garlic butter sauce dish. The other two flavor dishes are based on "Lemon pepper sauce," and "House sauce on shrimp". Recommendation: To address a poor service referenced in one of the Yelp reviews as 1 star, the restaurant may follow many chain restaurants' method to offer a cup for water or let guests get a drink by themselves, meaning, a patron do not have to wait for a waitress or waiter to come to deliver water to a table. read more

Just come on down big dog. It's better than the boiling crab and kicking crab combined. I hate to give it such a good review because that means people are going to crowd the place but Bro, the clam chowder was so good. We had to order it twice before we left. The gumbo was really good as well. My family is from New Orleans so I can't say that it was New Orleans good but it was definitely really good. I suggest you try it. They cleaned the snow crab, so you don't have to worry about eating poop with it Order extra potatoes just do it The sauce is really good, especially when you scoop it up with the garlic it's like another level I have to get mild because my girl is too much of a wuss to get anything hotter so next time I'll just have to come by myself The peach lemonade was off the chain. I wish I could pay them to give me more. They were either really happy or really good at faking it either way I couldn't tell because the vibes were awesome They give you two coins so that you can try and win a stuffed animal and their claw machine Next time I'm just gonna come in a waterproof rain suit so I can eat without shame I'm coming back read more

My second time here bc I decided to give them one more chance. My first time here, the servers would walk around asking tables how they were doing and they would just completely skip mine. I had to wave them down multiple times to get basic stuff like water. The service here is horrendous. We got seated and were waiting for 10+ minutes to even get a server and even then we had to wave them down. We then ordered and had to wait almost an hour for the food to come. They gave us the wrong appetizers and duplicated random stuff. I had to ask for condiments twice to even get any. People who got seated way after us somehow got their food first. We saw them seat, serve, cleanup and seat another table all before we got our food. read more

I've been to a Grab A Crab in Hacienda Heights before, so it's cool to see one all the way in Monterey Park at Atlantic Times Square. This location is quite similar to the other ones I've visited. I opted for the Combo for Two and added an extra pound of shrimp, which easily fed three people. I actually like that the seafood boil comes out on a pan rather than in a bag -- the bag always seems to overcook the shrimp and make them mushy. The sauce was flavorful, and what really stands out here is the value. The Combo for Two is a great deal, offering 2 lbs of selected seafood, two sides, a fried dish, and a few sausages, corn, and potatoes for your boil -- all for $46. You also get a few coins to test your luck on their claw machine for a chance to win a stuffed animal or a free dish. Overall, it was a fun and delicious experience. Note: It does get crowded during dinnertime, so either use the Yelp waitlist or come early. There was already a wait around 6:30 PM on a Friday. read more

Grab A Crab is a great option if you're looking for a seafood boil. Big space with no lines, quick service, and even a claw machine for you try to win more food. Bring your friends and get messy! We ordered a combo for 2 with headless shrimp. The sauce was good but when comparing to other places, it's on the blander side. We got the grab a crab sauce and felt it could've used more lemon and spices. Their medium spice level was on the milder side. Would definitely order spicy next time. The sides that come with the combo are great- love that you get to choose from so many options too. The best part is the value. You get so much food for the price. A combo for 2 could probably feed 3 people. Worth a trip! read more

We had lunch on a weekend, and it was not busy. The restaurant is spacious, clean and comfortable. We ordered the Combo for 2 which was a lot of food. For seafood, we opted for Shrimp and Crab Legs. The latter required an additional charge. For appetizers, we tried Fried Corn, Onion Rings and Cajun Chowder. Everything was delicious. I just wish that the combo came with more than 1 piece of corn. We did not expect a generous portion, so we also ordered Garlic Noodles, very garlicky, the way I like. Service was friendly. I will come back if I'm in the mood for cajun seafood. read more

I recently met a couple of friends here for a weekend brunch. The concept with the claw machines as well as the decor are so cute. I also like the option to order from a tablet at the counter. However, we did have a server for inside dining. Service was very friendly with all our questions answered thoroughly and lots of suggestions. We ordered a set meal for 4 and while the pricing is reasonable, we were suggested some add ons that were an additional charge. I prefer that pricing is made clear when things cost extra. The seafood is fresh and I particularly enjoyed the jumbo sized shrimp which were not overcooked. We ordered a double portion of crab and it was surprising how small the quantity was. I ended up just getting two individual crab legs and there were 3 of us instead of 4. The sides to me were more filler, granted we went more with the mainstream sides. There were two small slices of corn in the order (for 4) which was odd. I enjoyed the gumbo and took the remainder home, which tasted better the next day. We got one token each to try the claw machine. If you win, you can earn some extra food. Very cute branding. read more
