Menu was great as they offer all the shellfish included with your choice of seafood. Drinks were good and very strong. We ordered the snow crab combo that came with 1/2 pound of shrimp, muscles, and clams. Potato's, corn and sausage. With a pound of crawfish. In a spicy 4. It was good spice tons of garlic. Very strong. Super flavorful. Like that the menu offered a variety of options and market prices weren't bad per pound roughly about $15-18 per pound. Garlic fries and calamari was very delicious! Hate to say it but better than ballpark garlic fries. Service was good we went towards the end of closing from 7-9 but they took care of us. We're definitely gonna come back.

Food however left a little to be desired. The clam chowder was great and for the price point, was a good value. We ordered the chicken wings that came out longer than expected and tasted just ok. A couple of the wings weren't cooked all the way. We opted for the Dungeness crab combo with their signature sauce. The flavor was good but the crab definitely did not taste like it was fresh. For the price you pay ($87.00) I just expected more. This place has great reviews so willing to check it back out again and (hopefully) go have a better experience

Walking into Crawfish Chef, you immediately get that casual, no-frills Cajun seafood boil…read moreatmosphere--nothing overly fancy, but lively and inviting in a way that tells you the focus here is all about the food. The space is simple and functional, with wooden tables, a laid-back setup, and that unmistakable energy of people ready to dig into messy, hands-on seafood boils. It's the kind of place where gloves, napkins, and cracking shells are all part of the experience, and that authenticity adds to the charm. The star of the visit was Combo #6, a generous spread that comes loaded with 1 lb of mussels, 1 lb of snow crab, 1 lb of shrimp, along with potatoes and corn. On paper, it sounds like a seafood feast--and visually, it absolutely delivers when it hits the table, drenched in their signature house special sauce. Starting with the mussels, they soak up the sauce beautifully. Each bite is juicy and briny, with that ocean flavor amplified by the rich, garlicky, buttery kick of the house sauce. The seasoning doesn't just sit on the surface--it seeps into every shell, making each bite bold and satisfying. The snow crab is easily one of the highlights. The meat is tender, slightly sweet, and pulls cleanly from the shell. Paired with the house sauce, it hits that perfect balance between natural seafood sweetness and spicy, savory richness. It's messy, indulgent, and exactly what you want from a Cajun-style boil. The shrimp are equally impressive--plump, well-cooked, and easy to peel. They carry the sauce exceptionally well, giving you that full punch of flavor in every bite without being overpowered. The texture is spot-on, not rubbery or overdone, which can sometimes be a gamble with seafood boils. Even the sides--potatoes and corn--deserve recognition. They might seem like fillers, but here they act as flavor sponges, absorbing all that seasoned sauce and delivering surprisingly satisfying bites in between the seafood. They help round out the meal and keep it from feeling one-dimensional. What really ties everything together is that house special sauce. It's rich, garlicky, buttery, slightly spicy, and deeply flavorful--arguably the backbone of the entire experience. It's the kind of sauce that makes you want extra bread or rice just to soak up every last drop, and it's consistently praised as a standout feature of the restaurant. That said, while the flavors are undeniably strong, the biggest drawback comes down to value. Combo #6 sits at a noticeably high price point (around the mid-$90 range), and while the quality and taste are there, the portion doesn't quite feel like it fully justifies the cost. You get a good spread, but not an overwhelming one--especially if you're sharing or expecting a truly massive boil for that price. It leans more toward a "treat yourself" meal rather than something you'd regularly order without thinking twice. Some diners have also noted that prices have crept up over time while portions haven't significantly increased, reinforcing that slight mismatch between cost and quantity. Overall, Crawfish Chef delivers where it matters most--flavor. Combo #6 is rich, satisfying, and packed with well-seasoned seafood that keeps you reaching for the next bite. The house sauce alone makes it memorable. However, the higher price tag makes it feel more like an occasional indulgence rather than a go-to value meal. If you're craving a flavorful, hands-on seafood boil experience in Kent, it absolutely hits the spot--but just be prepared to pay a bit more than you might expect for the amount you get.

We pretty much demolished the whole bag, which says everything. The restaurant itself is casual and spacious with a full bar, plenty of seating, and a laid-back atmosphere.

House sauce in a 3, but felt like we could've ordered it in a 4. And added a pound of crawfish to it. Very affordable pricing with the amount of meat the seafood had. Cheap beer! Which was great! They advertise their specials on their socials and have other deals in the restaurant which is great if you're splitting with someone. Definitely will be back again, great food and service all around!

When the food arrived and I began to peel the shrimp, I noticed every shrimp still had its digestive track. I asked the waitress and she said "we do not clean the shrimp, people eat like that". For a seafood place not to clean their food is absolutely disgusting. $70 waisted and no substitute was offered or discount was given. All while this was happening, 2 parties walked out on their bill. Probably because they were dissatisfied with the food. You can easily buy raw cleaned shrimp from a grocery store. This is not fresh seafood, nor store bought. Will not be returning! Crawfish house does not clean their seafood.

My biggest issue, is how well the seafood is cleaned. During my last visit, I noticed that non of the shrimp was cleaned. That grossed me out. If I went again, would avoid getting that. I recently had the catfish poboy. It was just okay. It looked better than it tasted. I can't put my finger on why it wasn't that great, but it was just very "meh". The fries were really good though. Services is okay. They always seem to struggle with service, regardless of how busy the place is. But they are nice. Ambience is what you'd expect at a place like this. Nothing spectacular, but not dirty. I would love if they had a better ventilation system. The friend smells and spices are extremely strong! Overall, a solid restaurant, but if you're looking for a place with high quality seafood, may want to find another spot.

When we first pulled up, the outside looked a bit unassuming, so we were unsure at first. Once inside, though, it was surprisingly spacious and nicely set up. It even looks like they host karaoke at night, which adds a fun vibe. The service really stood out. The staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. We ended up ordering from the Vietnamese side of the menu, when we originally came for seafood boil lol. They also had an street food menu. The pho was served in a hot sizzling pot, and the appetizers came out on bamboo boats, which made everything feel extra special. I ordered the braised duck with egg noodle soup, and it was rich, flavorful, and really satisfying. We also tried the Vietnamese coffee with coconut, which was delicious. Overall, everything we tried was great and the service made the experience even better. We would definitely come back. I really want to come back to try the street food menu. There is also a small parking lot on the side of the building, which is convenient.
