Hard, uncomfortable wooden booths, restaurant decor was as if someone couldn't decide between nautical, neon or technical (They have robots bringing food to the table,) so they used all three which feels odd. The food selection good but the flavor was "meh" with a very strange version of clam chowder and overcooked side dishes. Service was competent and friendly, but this is not someplace I would rush back to. read more

We were so excited to try this place out after watching a reel from an influencer but the whole experience was awful. We got there at dinner time around 6 pm, got sitter down pretty quick and we ordered our food around 6:15 pm but we had to wait over 50 mins (almost an hour) for our food to come out when we noticed there were many servers and people work in the kitchen just talking and kicking behind the bars. Things got worse when our food finally came, we know we also have to mix the seafood with the sauce but I ate at many boiling seafood this is what we opened the bag and couldn't believe in our eyes that they didn't even care to premix the seafood a little bit to make it more appetite because there was absolutely NO sauce or any spices on any seafood and totally look sad and plain like they just boiled and throw on top of the sauce and bring out (and it took over 50 mins!??? Not that crowded either) so unappetizing and disrespectful to their customers. And not even that, the moment we got our food also was the moment we recognized the people that sit down on the other aisle they got sit down after us already finished their meal and paid and walked out the door. At this point, we were so pissed and so disappointed. But we were hungry so just eat and wait if they even remember to bring our second dishes out, and ofc it took another 20 mins when we almost finished the seafood and joking that we could even ask to take it out when we pay because we never received the food. Just ridiculous! About the food? As we read there were people talking about them complain about the flavor but we still think it's a hit or miss sometimes just give it a chance (we are Asian and we love seafood and we tried many places before) we could say the Cajun sauce we got just super plain (mostly just salty taste and oil ) lack of seasoning and spices. I would rate 2.5* out of 5. The second fish we ordered was the worst and nasty one, the Atomic shrimp rice, tasteless that we had to even mixed with the left over Cajun sauce to even finished it because we already paid and don't want to waste the whole things out. And since we asked to pay, it was another 15 mins waiting for them to bring the Togo box and the check out becaus they just hiding inside talking as we could see through the bars!! And NOT that crazy busy that they had to run around then we totally understand but no!!!! If we could give it less than 1 stars we would because of the whole experience, walked out upsetting and disappointed. read more

Happy Crab - 3rd combo adding green mussels and hand pulled noodle with Cajun sauce - Seafood Near Me - Auburn , Washington

See all

We wanted to try it since it's new, Unless you buy one the high price meals the service was minimal and bad, we have atomic shrimp, cod basket and chicken tenders, a friend had the calamari. The shrimp had a spice heat but no flavor, the cod and chicken tasted like it went right from the freezer to the deep dryer, the calamari was so rubbery that they could not chew through, everything was really small portions. Waste of a 100 dollars, will not go back read more

Food was amazing! Awesome portion size. Everyone was full and loved it. Super clean inside! Will definitely be back. read more

Sadly I had a very disappointing dining experience tonight. I have been to the this restaurant a couple of times before and the staff were friendly and the food was amazing. I was excited to go there for dinner tonight since my family now thought this would be our new favorite seafood boil place. However, tonight that was NOT the case and just might have changed my mind about this restaurant. Our waiter was friendly but the lady at the front desk was not. When I received my food I had noticed that it wasn't correct so I asked the lady that was previously at the front desk (since she was now walking the floor and our waiter was busy with other tables) I just wanted to make sure since I did not want to be charged for something I didn't receive. She then tells me that my waiter misheard and asked if I wanted her to take it back and add what was missing. I told her it was fine, since I did not want to be an inconvenience. My sister then asked her if we could add/ order 3 sides of rice (for our party of 3) she now replied in a rude manner. Stating that it would be an extra charge. Almost insinuating, like if we could afford that in a way, keep in mind our bill was already at $200 at this point. When we finally started eating we had noticed all of the labels on our combos had said mild, when we had ordered non spicy. We figured maybe it was a typo or something. We tried our food and they were all indeed, Spicy. The other two in my party decided it was fine and they would just eat theirs, once again because we did not want to be a inconvenience since the lady at the front desk was already being rude to us. However, I do not do well with spicy so I waited to see if a waiter or anyone was going to walk past so I could flag them down to let them know. After waiting about 10 minutes, no one had passed by so I went up to the front desk to the lady that was already being rude and was apologetic since I hate to be a bother. I let her know that my order was spicy when I had ordered non spicy. She followed me back to our table and asked which one was wrong and then offered to remake it. She came back with my now remade order, or so I thought. It was still spicy. Im pretty sure it was the same order I sent back but was just put into a new bag with a new sauce that "wasn't spicy" but everything had already been sitting in the previously spicy sauce and covered in / marinated in the sauce that was spicy. (Just a reminder I have ordered this before and know that the non spicy has no spice to it at all) At this point I was over it. So I just gave up and waited for my party to be done so we could leave, but while they were eating their food, they became very disappointed as well. The crab and lobster tail were over cooked, and the portions were a lot smaller compared to the previous times we had been. We ordered the same exact combo as before, but actually added extra add ons and yet it was still smaller to pervious visits. How does that work ? We also all ordered a soda and waited for refills that never came. To the point of, it just felt like they were avoiding our table intentionally. This one experience sadly ruined this restaurant for me. Which sucks because previously I had been raving to all my friends and family about this place and couldn't recommend it enough! But I no longer feel this way. read more

Third time is not a charm. Really hate to update my review but part of the dining experience is the service. The service tonight sucked compared to the past times I've gone. The waitress had an attitude, couldn't bother to refill any of our drinks and looked annoyed when we mentioned our order was wrong. All this made the entire experience unpleasant. read more

Food was so good! Ordered Lucky 7 combo and atomic shrimp and wild rice dish. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tasty. Atmosphere and experience was so fun for my family. I went back a few weeks later for their lunch service and had a noodle dish - again, so fresh and tasty. They wven have awesome robots deliver your food! Can't wait to go back. read more

Amazing food, lemon pepper on everything. Coconut shrimp also delicious. Plenty of parking.

The service from Sita was amazing. She was extremely friendly and helpful. The food was an A+. I would highly recommend going here and enjoying a fun dinner. We will be returning. read more

I'm gonna say this place was pretty good not sure if they do it for all takeout but we received a pan full of seafood much more sausage than most places give in their seafood boil. Price is as any other price at a seafood spot is but for me you get more than most seafood places serve. The location was easy easy to find parking was not a problem. The inside of the place is spacious. And clean. I recommend trying. I will be returning read more

New local spot in Auburn finally! Big space with lots of people dining in. We opted to get take out of shrimp in their house sauce which definitely had more spiced aftertaste to the butter, not spicy though. The servers were nice and our order came out in a timely manner. The next time we try we'll dine in read more

Before I start this review i would like say it was tasty. For it to be called Happy crab i am far from HAPPY! We did not get a robot serving us . The sauce was super thin and the bag was punctured leaving all my sauce to be poured out of the bag onto the silver plate it was served on VERY DISAPPOINTING . Not once did they ask us if we wanted refills for our beverages. We received an employee name Lihn. What up set me was once we asked for a to go bag I witnessed her drop the bag on the floor . When I asked for another bag she did provide one and threw the bag that was dropped onto the floor into the trash can . Her coworker proceeded with grabbing the bag out of the trash and placing someone's food inside of it while wearing gloves she served customers with and wiping down the counters. This was super unsanitary and honestly has me frighten for the food i have consumed . The place is nice and quiet and the bathroom is beautiful! read more

Me and my Gf had ordered takeout here, and it was our very first time eating at a new crab boil restaurant. We had spent $200 on food. We had the 'U Combo It' with the House Special Flavoring & Medium Spiciness. Once we tried the order we immediately noticed it barely had any flavor. It barely had any spice, and the sauce was very thin, like a water consistency. The only upside was that the food tasted fresh, wouldn't eat here again though. read more

Enjoyed the service great food tasted really good chicken wings was crispy. Highly recommend

Tried this new place tonight, my husband and I are excited to have a seafood boil place in Auburn. The food was tasty and not overpriced. We got the basics combo and it was perfect for 2 people. The restaurant is done up really cute inside. Service a tad slow and staff not completely knowledgeable yet, but friendly. We will be back because we really want this restaurant to succeed here. I'd recommend giving it a try if you like seafood! read more

the ambience was great, and the food was very flavorful. The seafood was quite fresh and and the servers was really friendly! would definitely go again read more

Decided to try this new place. Heard some good things about it. Assumed it was similar to the Crab pot in Seattle. It is not. Had dinner early, almost nobody else there except the wait staff. The restaurant seems to be sort of Asian and Cajun seafood combined. The menu and how to order the seafood boils was extremely confusing and not all all well written. Had to flag someone down to explain it. Ordered an appetizer plus dinners, my dinner (jambalaya) showed up with the appetizers and salad. It was just barely warm and tasteless. Next came husbands cucumber salad. Assuming he was going to get some sort of Japanese thinly sliced salad. What showed up was huge cubes of mushy cucumbers on a plate with some sort of brown dressing. Was not good. Continuing on, I guess we are spoiled by fresh seafood in the PNW. But the rest of the meals were not fresh seafood. Not only did not taste good but it looked like somebody had piled a bunch of seafood and corn on a plate and gotten sick over the top of it. Attempted to get another drink, another thing of tartar, some Tabasco, etc. even though there must have been 6 or 7 people working there, and maybe 1 other group there eating couldn't get their attention. Their little robot server thing was gimmicky but kinda funny. Would have been faster since the staff had to follow it around to just bring the food, but whatever. And....it's expensive. We eat out quite a bit but this place is a hard no for ever trying again. read more

the food wasn't all that great, it wasn't as spicy as the waiter made it, takes forever, poor girl, one of them works hard than the other when the girl isn't serving and probably at the restroom twice while on her shift, of serving us food. read more
