I recently stopped by Hot 'N Juicy Crawfish, and it was a pretty great experience overall. The vibe is casual, and the staff were super chill and friendly, which made the whole thing feel relaxed. I went for the crawfish boil, and it was really tasty. The seasoning had a nice kick without being overwhelming, and the crawfish were fresh and well-cooked. They also gave me a good amount of food for the price. I wasn't expecting to be blown away, but it turned out to be a solid meal. Definitely a fun spot if you're in the mood for seafood, and I'll probably be back next time I'm craving crawfish. read more

Our server was great! I just would not come back because of the lack of flavoring in their boil...I feel there are better places to spend your money and worth the longer drive, bill came out to about $100 which is expectable for seafood boil. There's just no flavor unfortunately... read more

Hot n' Juicy is great! It's delicious Louisiana Seafood Boil. It's very clean. You order by the pound or half pound. You choose your seafood...crawfish, crab, mussels, clams, or shrimp. You can add corn, potatoes, sausage, etc. Then you choose your sauce and spice level. The sauces are traditional Louisiana, juicy cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper, or hot n juicy. We love the hot n juicy! It's a combo of garlic, butter, and spices! Spice levels range from baby spice all the way to extra spicy. I land between a mild and medium, medium is pretty spicy! You get your bib, gloves, and bucket! Now it's time to work for your food. Last time I got the shrimp and mussels and my husband got the crab legs and shrimp, Yum! The mussels were especially delicious. They also have a bunch of fried seafood baskets and Po' Boy options if you're not ready for the boil! It's a fun place if you're looking for something different, a cool date night, or just good seafood! It's casual, but definitely has a clean, tidy vibe compared to other seafood boil restaurants. read more

Service was great, beer was cold but crawfish were not good at all. I will say this much, the sauce is really good, so is the peel on the crawfish but it's lacking in flavor in the tails. Maybe needed to soak longer but for $18.99 per pound, I'll pass on taking chances. read more

I have always been wanting to try a seafood boil, and I finally got to during a trip to Arizona! It was so fun to see the table covered in a plastic liner, and to be handed bibs and gloves to really get into the food and vibe. We chose the medium heat, which didn't have much spice for me in each individual bite, but overall had a subtle heat that was still enjoyable. It was my first time trying crawfish, which i could probably do without again. The shrimp and the corn were good too, especially when dunked in the extra sauce. To me, the stand out was the andouille sausage - I was digging to make sure I had eaten all of them! Having a nice cold drink to wash the seafood down and to take a break in between breaking open crawfish shells is nice as well. The restaurant is huge, and was almost empty when we went near the start of dinner time on a weekday night. I was glad to finally experience a seafood boil, but might opt for the individual things I enjoyed next time. read more

Hot N Juicy Crawfish - medium boil - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Price gouging everything, crawfish is so bad, no actual sauce in the bag...you have to pay extra for more, drinks (even happy hour pricing) are so small and not worth it, the margaritas are not margaritas. And they do not allow any substitutions...for anything. Went there 2 years ago and was acceptable for chain restaurant seafood boil, never going there again now. The staff were very nice, helpful, answered all my questions, and the space was clean! But the price of the meal/drinks for the quality we received had us walking out extremely disappointed and never going back. I'm giving it one star because it didn't make me sick and the employees were good, but there are MUCH better seafood boil places in AZ for a fraction of the price. read more

Best. Seafood boil. I've ever had. I'm from Chicago so I've had some pretty delicious seafood boils but wow.. I was a bit surprised, the place was practically empty too. And the mussels were cooked perfectly. Not overly chewy or tough. One thing.. I guess because they're not super busy they only have 1 server.. she did good but she also could probably use atleast one more person because even if there's only 3 tables waiting, she's taking orders, working the front desk, going to grab everyone's food.. etc. She was rushing around the entire time so we had to be patient for her to get back to us. read more

Hot N Juicy Crawfish - Mussels, egg, red potato boil - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Place was dead, we were waiting for a good 5-10 minutes and we called people's name out and yet no response.

The service was good, but the food was very hit or miss. The shrimp were cooked so badly that it took my husband several minutes just to peel one, and when he finally did the texture was flaky, mushy, and tasted strange. Definitely not what you expect when you're paying for a nice meal. Also, every time we come here it feels like we're sitting in a wind tunnel. The restaurant is freezing cold and there's always a strong draft blowing directly at our table the entire time, which completely ruins the experience. read more

I love this Hot N Juicy Crawfish location, but my last visit was beyond disappointing. My girlfriend, her father, her brother, and I came in on Sunday the 9th around 6:00 PM to celebrate a very special occasion--her father reconnecting with them after 10 years apart. She had been raving about this place to him, saying he would absolutely love it. When we arrived, it was busy, so we expected a wait. That was fine. After a short wait, we were seated, and the host told us someone would be with us soon. But that never happened. We waited and waited--no drinks, no bucket on the table, not even a greeting from our server. Meanwhile, a party that was seated after us got their drinks, then their food, while we were completely ignored. Employees kept walking past us as if we weren't even there. Other tables were turning over, customers were leaving, yet not a single employee acknowledged us. After 30 minutes of being ignored, we had no choice but to leave. This was supposed to be a meaningful celebration, and instead, it was ruined by terrible service. I'm incredibly disappointed. I really hope management addresses this, because no one should ever have to experience this kind of treatment. read more

I really liked the flavors of the crawfish and shrimp. The only disappointing thing was we ordered the wings, and on my first bite, the meat closer to the bone was still frozen. We politely asked to take it back and they were nice to replace it. The replacement was cooked through but their chicken was rubbery in texture. read more

In the mood for good seafood? Head on over to Hot N Juicy. Everything we had was excellent. We ordered their combo Drool and it had lots of shrimp, crawfish, sausages, and some crab, potatoes and corn. Enough to feed about 2 hungry adults. Some of the crawfish were bit tiny and lot of effort to get little meat out, but the flavor gives a big punch. Their mild was little spicy so it was perfect for us. The oysters were fresh and delicious. They were good size oysters too. The calamari was yummy; appreciate the tentacles being included. The green mussels were delicious with garlicky sauce. Service was excellent. The dining room was very clean. Bibs and disposable gloves kept things less messy. Highly recommend! read more

Service isn't the best but not the worst and they were all very friendly. One of the orders did take very long to come out. We also asked for ketchup and it never arrived so deducting a star. Food on the other hand, was pretty good. Definitely recommend their Po'boy. Really liked their hot & juicy seasoning. read more

Hot N Juicy Crawfish Ordered a feast to celebrate a birthday.. Fried Catfish Basket comes with 4 pieces of Catfish over French Fries which is cooked very nice and crispy. Good dipping sauce, but it is good enough to have without. Extra one pound of shrimp, shrimp are large and filling. Which probably had enough food for 3 with the combo dinner. "Get your feet wet" combo - 1 lb of crawfish, 1 lb of shrimp, dozen andouille sausage, 2 corns and 2 potatoes is a generous size combination. The shrimp and sausage are my favorite. We ate there on Sunday around 8 pm and there was hardly anyone there, good restaurant, but not to visible to the street. read more

First I'll say the service was excellent! But the food not so much. My grandson had the drool and wasn't that satisfied. He got 2 tiny crab legs and didn't eat the crawfish. I got the fried catfish and didn't like it. Had a weird taste. Hubby got a pound of shrimp that was just so so. Super expensive and no atmosphere there. We wouldn't go back. read more

A real hands on meal. I got a pound of crawfish, with broccoli and mushrooms with mild heat and garlic and butter sauce. VERY tasty, but the crawdads were over cooked, and almost not worth the effort to get the meat out of the tails. Great service from Viv. I made good use of the free bib, boy howdy did I make a mess. Next time I'm getting the garlic noods with shrimp. I'll be back next Friday! read more

My favorite seafood boil place! I've been to the Vegas and LA location but never AZ. We waited about 20 mins before being sat. Our server Micah was very attentive and nice! I shared the "the drool" combo with my sister and it was more than enough!! It came with crawfish, shrimp, potatoes, sausage and crab leg, it also came with Cajun calamari and we ordered rice on side. Taste exactly like i remembered!! Ambiance was great! They played music and the place was huge! read more

I love eating here. The spice and flavor of the hot and juicy signature sauce is fantastic. Can get a little busy at times but it's always been worth the wait for me read more

Food took a little while to come out, and let me emphasize the "MILD" level of spice. I was sweating while I was eating. It wasn't mild at all. It was really spicy. I didn't wanna return it cause firstly I don't wanna be a b*tch and secondly I dont wanna wait longer for the second time. read more

The food is 10/10. I always get the Cajun fries and a pound at least every time. I get the medium hot and juicy sauce and it definitely is spicy. I add corn and it really does hit the spot when it's in my boil bag. The service is good. They always come to check to see if we need anything or make sure we have everything before they let us enjoy our food. The ambiance fits. On the weekends is does get busy and sometimes there is a wait but it's expected. There is a lot of seating area all throughout the restaurant. I have gone multiple times. read more

Hot n Juicy crawfish It's not fresh crawfish season at least it's not at this place so now I have to come back to eat, again. Angie took care of me today, she was amazing.

food came out in portion. Everyone at the table were eating at different times service was very slow.

I ordered takeout and was very excited to enjoy a seafood boil. The flavors were really good, everything was going great until I got to the bottom of the bag & found a massive hair ball & No it wasn't hair from the ocean you find in mussels it was human hair. I called to complain & I believe his name was Mike that said he cannot do anything unless I went back to the restaurant because he needed proof. How would you like me to drive 30 minutes to return food I'm unsatisfied with? I just wasted $85 on food that the trash will now be enjoying. Will never return here again. The 2 stars I'm giving is for the flavor. Everything else, trash. read more

Hot N Juicy Crawfish - the interior of the restaurant - Seafood Near Me - Phoenix, Arizona

Not my first time here but my first time at this location. It was not crowded but we did go on a Sunday night at 7:30pm. I've been to other locations and there is always a wait. This place is spacious, clean and friendly staff. We had 2 servers. One was in training and they were both great and worked together smoothly. They brought us extra gloves, bags and recommended which seasonings were highly requested. We ordered pretty much every living thing in the water. The garlic butter snow crab was amazing as well as the shrimp in baby spice. If you can handle a little spice, I would suggest that. But up it a notch if you're ready to feel the heat. I liked this location way more than the others. Definitely a new spot to return to. read more

Came here with a group of friends - 1 with lots of experience eating here & the rest of us all newbies! I'd seen places like this on tv & had been wanting to try it for so long! Let me tell you, it lived up to the hype! It was so fun eating such messy food, family-style, getting your hands dirty (with gloves on preferably)! They offer lots of different seafood options from oysters to crab variations to crawfish of course! As well as appetizers like fries, chicken wings, mozzarella sticks, etc. They also have multiple seasonings/sauces to try & you can choose the heat level you would like! We feasted & left with full bellies! If you're looking for a different kind of dining experience, try this! It's so much more exciting & flavorful then the usual restaurant, with great opportunity for fun memories made! read more

We ended up here after going to other places in the parking lot and finding out they closed. We wanted something fast, but not fast food if that makes any sense. So with some hesitation,we pulled up around 9:20pm and they closed at 10pm so we knew we were rolling the dice. They were cleaning up most of the place getting tables wiped down and moving chairs so we weren't quite sure if they were actually still open since some places still have limited hours. We were seated quickly along with a drink order taken. We were informed if we wanted to get any of the boils that they would try their best to get everything out at once. Once we placed our order we had soft shell crab, catfish, and a chicken nugget basket. The food arrived pretty quick and was hot and tasted very fresh! The first thing to arrive was the chicken nugget basket. I was surprised, but also happy to see the nuggets appeared homemade. Our little one even commented how good they were which was a first. I'm a huge catfish fan and I feel like this is one of few places I've had that actually served catfish when it said catfish in Phoenix. I ordered sweet potato fries which also were pretty delicious! All the baskets were quite filling for each of us! My 4 star is because it was fairly loud not sure if was because they were cleaning or just the acoustics of the inside. Also didn't try a boil which I'm sure most people are coming here for. With that said, we will have to try it again! Our whole party agreed that the gamble on coming get was worth it! read more

Sad!!!!!!! I go to the Vegas location once a month and it's my absolute favorite - they do things right!! I went to this one in Scottsdale and was so disappointed. Service was not great and everhtning came out wrong including no sauce mixed into our bag, they had to take it back and mix in sauce. Also- they do bit de-vein/remove poop from the shrimp so that was fun .... read more

While the food was decent for crawfish, the fact that management decided to have worker serving multiple full sized tables is wild to me. Vivian did a fantastic job serving us, but what's happening with management here? The whole location feels empty somehow. Just a strange vibe. For the price of it all with how hard the skin stayed in the shrimp I'd probably just go to other places for crawfish. read more

Last week my husband and I went to Hot N Juicy to celebrate my son's birthday! The food was absolutely amazing but the service even more so. Our server Vivian was amazing and made sure that our children had the best time for their birthday! She was funny and immediately cleaned after us when our children spilt their drink on the table. She didn't make a fuss at all and did it with smile. We felt so bad but she assured us that it happened all the time. Thank you so much for being understanding that stuff happens. read more
