I really enjoy coming to Juicy Seafood in Castleton. One of my favorite things about this place is that it's not loud, so you can actually enjoy your meal and have a conversation without shouting. The booths aren't the most comfortable, but the overall atmosphere is relaxed and pleasant. The $5 Coronas are a great deal, and my go-to order is the Juicy Special. It has a little kick to it, so if you're sensitive to spice, keep that in mind--but I think the flavor is worth it. I especially loved the lobster, sausage, black mussels, and frog legs. Everything was flavorful, and the seafood was delicious. There are some good deals on the menu if you're looking to keep the cost down. However, if you're dining with your partner and both of you order lobster or other premium seafood, plan on spending around $100 or more. For me, it's worth it for a nice seafood dinner. Don't worry if cracking the seafood seems intimidating--they provide scissors and seafood tools at the table to make it much easier. And don't forget to put on the plastic gloves and apron before you dig in, because things can definitely get messy! If you're looking for a casual spot with a relaxed atmosphere where you can enjoy great seafood and actually have a conversation, Juicy Seafood in Castleton is definitely worth a visit. read more

I visited yesterday as part of a large group (8 adults, 2 kids) for a birthday dinner. We were seated promptly and had a very sweet server. It took some time for us all to order and start getting our drinks. However, the food started coming out pretty quickly. I ordered the Plant Power with cajun seasoning at the medium spice level with a side of boiled eggs. It was so delicious! It came out piping hot and covered in seasoning. The plant power comes with a generous amount of corn, boiled potatoes, and broccoli. The boiled eggs were overcooked, though, and they were too hot to eat for awhile, though. They burned my fingers! I loved the flavor and didn't think it was spicy at all, though. I was worried that the veggie plate would be underwhelming in comparison to the seafood boils that everyone else ordered but I think I actually enjoyed it the most lol Since they knew we were celebrating my boyfriend's birthday, they gave a gift card for $15 off his next visit. They also have a neon lit birthday sign and our server lead us in singing the Birthday song -- if you don't like that kind of attention, don't tell them lol read more

I used to love this place & I've definitely had better experiences at this location. The server was just not attentive to our table of 4 at all. We had to get up to find her to ask for drinks, to go boxes, and even the check. We noticed she also had her air pod in listening to music which made it more frustrating since we were rarely being checked on. The only time she seemed personable was when she brought the check out... go figure. The food was average. We got crab cakes (7/10), calamari (7/10) & the catfish basket (4/10). I don't recommend the catfish basket. The fish itself was okay, but I think the fact that they use flour instead of corn meal for the breading is a bit strange. read more

Came to Juicy today for lunch for the first time after hearing so many people talk about it. We are not big seafood eaters (I am vegetarian but willing to try seafood), and thought this may be a good chance to have crab for the first time! It wasn't busy on a Saturday at lunch time. Staff was friendly and we were sat right away, we were however sat in the wrong section and had to move after getting settled. But no worries, we were understanding! I loved the decor, very fitting for a seafood spot. And when we were sat we received a bucket with all the tools needed to get into the meal: wipes, gloves, bibs, plates, forks, scissors. Our drink menu was well loved, and hard to read. I opted for the flying tiger drink, and the server laughed a little and walked if that's what I wanted. I was a bit confused, but let me tell you it's delicious but STRONG. We started off with Mozerella sticks and Cajun fries. The Mozerella sticks were served with marinara, and were good but nothing special. The fries came with tartar sauce, and were some of the best fries I've had! As for the reason we came, the seafood boil. I got the Plant Power (potato, corn, broccoli) and added boiled eggs. I got it "juicy style" which is all of the seasonings, and chose medium for my spice level. Everything was great, the eggs were over cooked a bit, but good nonetheless. My spouse got the Mr Captain (Snow crab, sausage, shrimp, potato, corn, egg) with the same spice & level. He was not pleased with the shrimp overall, and could have done without it overall. I tried some of the crab, and can confidently say it was the best thing we ordered and I am a huge fan of crab now! The crab wasn't as meat-y as we hoped and overall it was a lot of work to crack open for such a small amount of meat. Since we are new to the seafood scene, I'm not sure if it's normal to have that little of meat in snow crab. Overall, we will be coming again to try more things. The must haves for us would be crab (duh!) and those Cajun fries! read more

Let me set the scene: I walked into Juicy Seafood expecting a casual dinner... and instead experienced a full-scale culinary opera that I was absolutely not prepared for. I ordered the crab and sausage, thinking it would be good--fine even. But no. What arrived at my table was a steaming, glistening, molten masterpiece, a bag of pure glory that felt like Poseidon himself hand-delivered it from the depths. The crab? Unhingedly delicious. Cracked open like it had been waiting its whole life for this moment. Every bite was a buttery, spicy, ocean-kissed revelation. It should win awards. It should be studied. It should have its own documentary. The sausage? The unexpected hero. Smoky, juicy, perfectly seasoned, soaking up every drop of that magical sauce like it was born to be famous. Honestly, the way the flavors melded together deserves a Nobel Peace Prize for bringing harmony to the world. And the sauce--dear Lord. Somewhere between Cajun fire and garlic heaven, it clung to every bite, every finger, every napkin like a love letter I didn't ask for but absolutely needed. By the end, I looked like a warrior returning from battle, covered in seasoning and joy, with no regrets and no shame. If you want a meal that grabs you by the soul and makes you question every seafood boil you've ever had before, run--don't walk--to Juicy Seafood. read more

Food is always delicious at Juicy! The shrimp with the juicy sauce is my favorite! The service was great with no complaints

3 stars. Customer service was really great here. I wish the seafood could've matched the service. I found my boil to be under seasoned. I ordered it mild Cajun and lemon pepper. It tasted like I ordered it plain. The value on the clam strips is just there. $9 is simply overpriced for what I received. And they didn't come with fries - I had to order those separately. But they were delish! We were given a complementary cheesecake since we were celebrating a birthday. And a nice sign to make it a worthy photo opp. Plus, we got a gift card for our next visit. Kudos! I'm not sure if that's something they always do or if you have to signup online. Nice touch, either way. My cocktail was tasty, but light on the alcohol. It was one of the monthly specials. Can't remember the name. Overall a decent spot, but I'm not sure I'll be a frequent diner. read more

Food was amazing.i mean amazing I don't even like seafood but the meals and options they offer are impeccable the service was great I can't remember her name but she was a really nice lady a mother of four because we talked about our sons and then liking seafood. We all got full and still took allot with us for later on. And it was still around 100 dollars for all four of us to share the 89 dollar boil which had soooo many shrimp . It's a nice environment for what you're eating it's perfect with a comfy AC keeping you cool while you enjoy your food. I give it a 10 foot service price and the experience alone was so much fun. VERY FRESH FISH ! read more

This was my first time here! The hush puppies were so good! And I loved the snow crab legs! They really prepare for you to make a mess here. I was confused with the bib at first but then I had so much flavorful juicy dripping down my chest that I needed it! I got to choose the flavor and spicy level of what my crab legs were tossed in. My waitress reccommended garlic with lemon so I got that and got "hot" spicy which wasn't too bad, I could have done very hot honestly! Definitely will be back! read more

Got the black and red for two added crawfish. Wanted to try the calamari, however never received my order of it. It was ok still hungry for the price. Service wasn't the best. Food was lukewarm. Had to really work it in the sauce they poured over it instead of cooking it in the sauces. read more

Babe and I decided to have date night at this location and I have no complaints! We walked in and got sat right away, our server John was very helpful explaining the menu and how it worked with ordering. He was also very attentive and a great server! We ordered strawberry margaritas which were so delicious! We then proceeded to order 2 of The Red Bomb which was also delicious!!! We do not get to get out a lot since we have a newborn, But I am so glad we chose to eat here at this location because it was delicious and was worth every penny! We are going back this Saturday Nov.2 for my birthday dinner! read more

We came in one evening for dinner. The atmosphere is rustic with dark wood tones and loud RnB music. We were greeted promptly and sat, we waited for a while before our waitress come over to greet up and take our drink order. While she was speaking to us she was looking around the room making it hard to hear her over the loud music. We ordered a cup of the New England clam chowder for a starter and a combination seafood boil with the juicy special (all of their sauce flavors). We waited for quite a bit and a man headed to our table with a steaming hot metal tray of seafood, our waitress called over to him that we had ordered the chowder for a starter. He turned around and a few minutes later we had our chowder. It was served steaming hot and tasty. Unfortunately, after we finished our chowder, they brought out the same seafood that they had tried to serve us before just no longer hot. The pan of seafood arrived and it contained mussels, petite crab legs, shrimp, lobster tail, corn, and potatoes. There was at least an inch or more deep of a butter liquid in the bottom of the pan which made everything quite messy. The overall flavor was good, but the quality and the size of the seafood made it just okay. The best part of the boil were the potatoes and the corn if which there were only a few pieces. It's a good start, maybe just an off night. I would have preferred our dinner served steaming hot, with no liquid in the bottom of the tray. read more

We decided to stop in and try the juicy seafood restaurant this past weekend. The restaurant was very clean on the inside. As well the staff was very friendly and helped us pick the best options for our seafood boil. For the spice level we went with the hot level and the juicy special with all the seasoning combined. All of the seafood was great and fresh. We will definitely be coming back to try some more food. read more

We were bopin around with so much to do and a dog and the staff was so helpful with every little question we had we had. Staff 10/10

Not at all pleased and soooo happy that I didn't spend a boatload of money on seafood on this particular day. I was in the mood for the steamed rice with the juicy special sauce on it. I'd picked up some wings at another establishment and really just came for sides. Steamed rice, broccoli, corn and potatoes....all with the juicy special at either mild or medium spiciness. The sauce tasted like pure oil....not butter and not seasoned or spicy AT ALL. This is the second time that I've experienced this. The first time, I felt like it was maybe just an off day, but now that it has happened again, I'm thinking that they've changed the recipe and now I have no reason to return. read more

I apologize for the lack of photos...I was hungry and dived right in!! So this is my first time at Juicy. We went for lunch so it wasn't to busy. The service was ok. The environment is nice and fishy (he he...the artwork). The food is delicious. They have all kinds of seafood and combos to choose from. We had hush puppies, chicken wings and combo that included a lobster tail, crab legs shrimp potatoes and corn. Everything was good but obviously the seafood was best. I mean, that's their specialty but I appreciate the other options, especially since my two year old tagged along (he approves of the chicken wings!) We added broccoli to the boil and chose the juicy special (all the sauces mixed) and the spice level was mild. It was very good and enough to share with my 8 year old. I'm not sure if the combos are meant for sharing but you only get 1 small corn on the cob. You could always add on additional items for a small up charge. Overall, I will be back! read more

Excellent seafood establishment! The food taste fresh and flavorful! The sides (potatoes, corn, eggs,) are fresh also and taste very good. This is a nice place to come alone, a date, or as a family. I have ordered this through food delivery apps, but it tastes best when you eat it fresh out of the kitchen, but it still tastes good delivered. The service was good and I will definitely return to eat here again. read more

I LUV this seafood restaurant! It's my go to for seafood although I wish you could take out items from the different broils like eggs or the meat, the sausage. Also why can you only add 3 extra corn and not just one? That's kinda annoying and lastly not so much their problem, but just me giving some advice. I usually get the "all of the above" sauce and WHOOW is it STRONG. Like just so many flavors and spices that half way through it gets unbearable. So be careful up with "all of the above" sauces. Other that that would defo recommend this place bc like I said they are my go to and if ya don't like broils then they got all kinds of fried seafood too. LUV IT! read more

We visited last week, and it was our first in person dining date night since Covid hit. Each restaurant seems to have their own protocols about how they manage their business through the pandemic, and I was happy to see temperature checks happening before guests enter plus hand sanitizer available once inside. After signing a waiver acknowledging we were opting to dine in and not hold the restaurant liable for the associated risks, we waited outside while a table became available. We were lucky enough to get seated in their outdoor patio area, especially since it was great weather. I noticed inside was not packed. They had been careful to limit the number of indoor diners to help promote social distancing. Now...the good stuff...FOOD! I was shy about wearing a plastic bib, but I'll enthusiastically wear one next time so I can dive in to the pile of buttery, well seasoned shrimp, crawfish & crab legs with abandon....soooo good! The staff was friendly, but you could tell they were definitely new...not familiar with the beer offerings and obvious lack of ease with serving. Not a huge deal since the place is relatively new and trying to manage through a pandemic. I do hope they get more crab leg crackers. The waiter said they were out, and it's a seafood place not operating with a full house just yet. Once more people know how good it is, they'll definitely want to make sure each party (at least) can have something more than a fork to crack open the crab legs. read more

I was excited to try Juicy seafood because I'd heard great reviews. We went on a Sunday and were immediately seated. Our server was wonderful. We started off with the hush puppies, which were good. My daughters had the crawfish and chicken tenders. The tenders were very delicious. I had the scallops along with shrimp, potatoes, corn and sausage. The scallops were slightly disappointing. The corn wasn't edible as it was either very old or overcooked. The rest of the food was good. I wasn't a fan of the sauce. It was extremely salty, and I actually love seasonings. I will stick to The Ugly crab. read more

So, my family and I went to Juicy Seafood in Castleton area for nephew 11th birthday on Thursday July 21st. My nephew loves seafood so he chosen to have his birthday dinner at Juicy Seafood. The restaurant is in a great location in the Castleton area, close to the Castleton Square Mall, as well as other businesses in the area. Entering, the restaurant there are some stairs, and once in the restaurant if your party is 6 + more you can't sit down until everyone at your party arrives. We, didn't have a reservation, we had to wait until everyone showed up in order to be seated. While, waiting for the rest of the party to show up you can wait inside in the waiting area. Once, seated down we ordered our drinks, then our dinner. I ordered something simple a catfish basket(4) as well as corn(4). When, you order corn for a side it you don't get one, but you'll get four corns. Lastly, my family order different seafood entrées. The birthday boy had his delicious seafood in the bag, he loves crab legs. Overall, the experience at Juicy Seafood out in Castleton wasn't bad at all. read more
