    How they don't have ketchup or ranch ?
    Noel M.

    Bro sorry for the bad review but you need to fix your staff. You had a great thing going. I'm usually 20% minimum tipper. Anytime I needed something two of the girls would make eye contact and go to the back. One girl was on lunch so I wouldn't have bothered her. Whoever was cooking that day wasn't remotely trying. Couldn't get a glass of water or anything. Lava chicken was bland. Also I ordered garlic noodles , and asked if I could just do the garlic shrimp plate with garlic noodles , they charged me for a full garlic noodles and shrimp separate.

    1.5 lb crawfish - they conformed it wax "fresh" but you can taste the freezer burn on them
    Edie N.

    Probably one of the worst seafood and dining experiences I've ever had honestly and I reallllly had high hopes for this place. First off, we called ahead to make sure they had fresh crawfish over the phone they said it was in season and fresh. When we got there we confirmed with the waitress again and she said it was fresh but it was not only frozen but borderline inedible and I'm shocked they served something that was essentially rotting from the inside out. The inside was BLACK and soggy!! Chinese all you can eat buffets have better quality than this. It was actually so bad I couldn't even continue eating it. The price was atrocious for that as well ($25 for 1lb, $22 for half). Service was just as bad. The two waitresses seemed like they hated being there and took forever to get us menus, took even longer to take our order and she just sat behind the counter and ate instead of bringing us water or utensils. They never once came back to check in on us after dropping the food off. The catfish was BLAND despite it looking seasoned which was shocking and the short ribs looked and tasted boiled as you can see in the photo. Just overall horrible quality. I'm actually sad about this spot! Just moved to the east bay from sf and it looked promising. Just was an unfortunate disappointment.

    I was sat at a table in the middle of the restaurant. Around noon on a weekday. Another waitress came out and asked me to move to another table by the window, bc the High schoolers would be coming in for lunch. In retrospect, it was not a big deal. But at the time, it was off putting. You don't seat someone then ask them to move for someone else! A bit afterwards, the high schoolers showed up in droves. They were not disruptive. But I was able to see why she moved me. At this time (late morning) there was a family sitting next to me. They ended up leaving bc the restaurant had no dungeons crab! They were rather upset. Understandably. I ordered Lady Dubs Special (cajun) with the flat bread, added sausage and a side of garlic noodles. This was more than enough to feed 1 person. And the sauce is flavorful. Nice and thick, just the way I like it. 10/10!! I've had several seafood boils and this one is the best so far!! It also affordable.

    Dungeness crab in Steph Curry sauce

    Hang Ten is easily one of my top three Asian style crab boil spots. My other two favorites are Lemon Pepper in Hayward and Claw Shack in San Jose, but Hang Ten definitely holds its own. My go-to order here is the Dungeness crab with the Steph Curry sauce. It has this Thai yellow curry flavor that's super unique and really tasty. I usually go for spicy, which has a nice kick, but this time I tried extra spicy and it was still manageable in a good way. One thing I really like about Hang Ten is that their sauces are thick enough to actually cling to the seafood, which makes every bite flavorful. The only downside is that out of my top three spots, this one has the oiliest sauce. It's a bit heavy and can leave you feeling kind of weighed down afterwards. I wish it was more like Lemon Pepper, where you barely taste any oil or butter. Still, that Steph Curry sauce flavor keeps me coming back. Their garlic noodles are also really solid, probably my second favorite anywhere. They've got great umami flavor without being too oyster sauce heavy, just garlicky with a touch of sweetness. The only bummer is that they used to have a rewards system, and when I tried giving my number yesterday, they said the company that ran it shut down, so all my saved points are gone. That was disappointing. Overall, Hang Ten is still a great spot for flavorful seafood boils, but now that I've discovered Lemon Pepper, I'll probably come here a little less often.

    Da dub basket 10/10
    Vanessa P.

    What an amazing experience we had at Hang Ten Boiler! We came out for a Halloween Market and decided to grab lunch after stumbling upon this place, we walked by and couldn't resist the garlicky, buttery cajun notes wafting in the air. Small hole-in-the-wall type of interior with lots of sports decor and a cozy dining area with several wooden dining tables. They had a couple televisions playing varying sports channels , I could see this as a place to hang out and watch a game if sports is your kind of thing. Upon arrival we were seated within minutes. Our waitress was friendly and attentive throughout our luncheon, and even helped us decide which flavor to go with for our shrimp. We decided on the curry sauce, and we were so happy we did. I'm a sauce person and this is one of the most unique flavor profiles I've ever had for a seafood boil! We picked the medium spice flavor for our shrimp and it was just right, next time we would go spicier. Other highlights of our meal included the hang ten fries, tender bites of savory and smokey meat on top of fries, da dub basket, with fried shrimp, fried catfish, and fried oyster, we upgraded the side to garlic noodles. The breading was perfect, not too thick, slightly crispy and the seafood was juicy on the inside. We were super impressed by the food and cannot wait to go back!

    We arrived and were seated quickly. The crew was friendly and the food was tasty. While they serve beer and wine, they do not have a full bar. Which Is fine, but wanted to share that info if that's a deal breaker for you.

    Whenever craving a good Hawaiian and seafood fusion we always come back to this restaurant. Although it is a drive it's definitely worth it. The Warriors decor inside just makes it feel like you're truly in the bay.The service is always quick and attentive and it's truly just the perfect place to pop in for a quick bite. The garlic noodles and Cajun fries are a favorite and definitely a must try ! The portions are very generous, you can easily split most of the food between two people or more. We definitely always have leftovers when we leave this place. If you're looking for a place to get flavorful seafood boil and just overall good sides definitely check it out.!

    Audience is cool, the service is okay and the food is about the same. Just okay I've been here several times but I have t had anything great yet. Well actually the garlic noodles are pretty good but everything else okay

    Garlic Fries
    Al L.

    Our friends were visiting and wanted to have lunch here. I've known about Hang Ten but didn't know that they offered a Hawaiian menu and not just a Cajun seafood menu, which is not a preference of mine. Lot of sports décors on the wall and I knew this was the home of "We Believe" for you Warrior fans. Arriving at 12:30 on a Thursday, there were about three tables of diners, but there were a bunch of students from the Alameda High ordering lunch with a couple dining in. We were promptly seated and we checked out menu and placed our order. Lumpia - ten pieces of homemade lumpias to an order with sweet chili dipping sauce Garlic Fries - thin fries in a garlic sauce Garlic Noodles - a large portion. This was so tasty. Would definitely order again. Katsu Chicken with mac salad and broccoli - Chicken was moist and had a nice crispy batter Kalbi ribs with mac salad - Ribs were tender and good portion. Janelle's Loco Moco with broccoli - only disappointment. The patties were over cooked as they were tough. Definitely had better loco mocos. Overall, we had a good experience. Friendly service and good food at reasonable prices.

    Jordan's Combo
    Julianne L.

    Came here ready for a seafood boil and it was way better than I expected! I came in a group of 4, where we split the Hang Ten fries, two people ordered individual plates, and I shared Jordan's combo with one other person. The Hang Ten fries were deep fried to perfection and the kalua pork was salty and tender. They give you a big squeeze bottle of aioli sauce if you want more too. The portions for all of the entrees were MASSIVE! The Jordan's combo could definitely fill more than two people and you'd have leftovers to take home! I had it with the Hang Ten (Cajun) flavor and medium spicy. It was so delicious and spicier than I expected! It was even spicier and more flavorful the next day as leftovers. Those that ordered the entrees had a good portioned meal for another day. Service was fast and the market price for the Jordan's combo was ~$55 when I went.

    My mom was craving hang ten so I called for an order of one pound shrimp, medium spicy, hang ten flavor. It was ready super quick within ten minutes. I got there and realize they were prepping for closing. Staff were still super nice even though I know they just want to close up and go home. Very sweet staff. I went home to bring my mom the shrimp. She loved it. Perfect spice level we chose. My mom finished her meal and wanted more already haha

    Hang Ten is delish! Hang Ten Boiler is a lively restaurant with great food. Their portions are large and food is super flavorful. The shrimp, mussels, and clams are super plump and juicy! Their hard boiled eggs, potatoes, and sausages are pretty large which justifies their higher-than-average additional cost. I love love love the Steph Curry and Hang Ten sauces - their flavor profiles are super unique and unlike any other I've had at a seafood boil restaurant. The drinks, however, are pricey (sodas are sold by the can with no refills). Hang Ten is a hip spot. Like many other Cajun/seafood boil places, there are signatures on the walls and good music playing. It can get a bit rowdy, especially on Warriors game nights. This makes it a super fun spot though and a must-be location for good dinner and rooting for the team. The service is iffy. Sometimes we are seated and served quickly with zero complaint. Other times, we end up waiting for over 20 minutes for a water refill or a request for lemons, even on a non-busy night. The wait-staff are truly either phenomenal or grumpy. The majority of the time though, we are served well. I definitely recommend Hand Ten!

    If you're craving some real-deal Cajun food, hang ten is the spot. From the moment you step in, you're greeted by the rich, spicy smells of gumbo, jambalaya, and crawfish. The vibe is laid-back and fun, with a touch of New Orleans charm mix with a lot of Bay Area sport culture. Food: I went with the classic Bay Area special - garlic noodles, and wow--it did not disappoint. Also got the shrimp and crayfish. The shrimp were perfectly seasoned, with just the right amount of heat. The crayfish were steamed thoroughly, and they soaked up all the delicious sauce. The house special sauce is different, it has a curry based to it and not alike any other Cajun style resturaunt Service: The staff here is super friendly and really knowledgeable about the menu. Our server gave some great recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering. The food came out pretty quickly too, which was awesome. Vibe: The place has a cozy, down-home feel to it, with Bay Area decor that makes it feel like you're dining right in the heart of the bay. The music adds to the atmosphere, but it's not so loud that you can't carry on a conversation. It's the perfect place for a casual night out with friends or a date night if you're in the mood for something a little different. It's got great food, a fun atmosphere, and the kind of comfort you want when you're in the mood for bold flavors and good vibes.

You can order with the staff or using the kiosk. The menu has many options. You can order individual plate lunches, mini meals, and even family meals. We got two mini meals (chicken katsu, chicken teriyaki) which included small fountain drinks, a beef and chicken mix plate, and a beef rib with chicken mix plate. It took about 15 minutes before we got our order. Everything came in fast food containers, which was convenient cuz the portions were generous so we had leftovers. Overall, the BBQ meats were seasoned well and had good taste. None were overcooked and the beef tasted tender. The chicken katsu had good crunch. The macaroni salads were satisfying and the stirred fry cabbage that came with the plate lunches were generous portioned and had a nice wok hay to them. We appreciated the fountain drinks as we were able to get refills. All in all, I would said this is a good place for convenient fast food, and the prices were reasonable for the quantity and taste. The mini meals were of especially good value.

We mainly wanted drinks and maybe an app anyways. Ambiance is immersive with the tiki experience but still feels open. Large windows overlooking the bay and boats, music is very quiet. Casual and relaxed vibe feeling like an island escape. Water was promptly provided and was kept refilled throughout our visit. We tried 4 cocktails. Solid painkiller and variety of drinks and flavors but my absolute favorite was the "Cucu Lada" this was essentially a piña colada with cucumber. Really refreshing and nicely prepared with crushed ice. We also tried the crab rangoons. These came out ultra fast but were not hot, seems like they prep them ahead of time. The dips were awesome though, we loved the spicy mustard that they were served with. Never had that before with rangoons. Our service was great for the most part up until the end when we were trying to leave it seemed difficult to flag our server down so we could close out and leave. Overall it was fun and if back in the area I'd gladly return for another Cucu lada and maybe try some dinner menu items. Don't forget to checkout the gift shop for some fun tiki mugs and memorabilia.

    I've been here a few times and wanted to like it!…read more Beautiful tiki ambiance, vibe, Asian fusion food- it had so much potential. Pros were the attentive service and organized presentation of the food. However, the food quality fell flat for me for the high prices. Appetizer dish for 2 and the fried rice were ok but there was just something missing in the taste profile. Chicken wings were good and had a kick. The cheese bings did not taste good- it may have been a flavor preference- but we sent it back and they were nice enough to remove it from the bill. On the fence if I'd come back- maybe the dinner menu's better!
