Good quality food and everything served nice and hot. The food is very flavorful and worth every dollar spent. My only recommendation is to enhances English fluency for some of the waiters / waitresses because of the language barrier it was difficult to communicate. But when another person came over with stronger English fluency everything was worked out. Great experience for the 4th time. read more

Crawfish is so expensive now due to limited supplies in the market. Apparently the drought is killing the breeding. A pound of crawfish was $15.99 when I came in. Also had a pound of clams and they were filling enough. I've frequent their Carrollton location before and it's consistent in recipe. Taste great read more

Kickin Crab - Seafood Near Me - Garland, Texas

Kickin Crab is actually my go to spot and one of the best seafood spots in terms of seasoning but I went there yesterday and I felt cheated. I ordered a pound of shrimp and it didn't feel like a pound of shrimp at all and this is my go to order normally. I also ordered a taco and it kind of looked like it was thrown together and not made with love which was very disappointing because it wasn't for me. The seasoning was great per usual but the service and portion was not it this time, I hope they make it up. read more

I went here today because I Googled "best catfish near me", and this popped up. I go in, check out the menu, and don't see catfish. I ask the girl at the counter if they had any, and she says, "Yes, we do. It's just not on the menu. It's listed under Fish n Fries." I should've left then - do you, or don't you have catfish, sis? So I look at the menu and see that the fish in the Fish n Fries basket is listed as "white fish". I ask her again, if she's sure this is catfish, and she says "Yes. I'm sure". She tells me that they are filets, but they are about the size of chicken tenders. That didn't make sense, but I just figured that they were taking a filet and cutting it in half. Fine. I ordered the fish basket and corn to-go. I get home and open up my food. No ma'am, absolutely not - that was NOT catfish. It was maybe swai or the white fish that was listed on the menu, and it was ONE piece of fish, chopped in four pieces. Never seen chicken tenders that looked like squares. For $10, please do better. And sis, please learn the menu if you're going to be advising customers on the menu. I'm giving two stars because the corn in the Louisiana seasoning was DELISH. read more

Kickin Crab - Supposed to be catfish. It's not. Absolutely not. - Seafood Near Me - Garland, Texas

We expected this place to be good, but we were completely wowed by the flavor of everything we had! Oysters bigger than we've ever seen, an interesting but tasty take on Cajun edamame, and then some of the tastiest mussels we've ever eaten in a sauce so rich in flavor! Definitely recommend the Kickin' Style sauce for any bag item! read more

Skip the gumbo - lacks flavor. Cajun fries - super skinny, crispy with a little spice. They were good. Kickin Wings - average wings, nothing exciting. Garlic noodles - they were garlic noodles. Heavy on the butter. We shared a combo #3: Crawfish were tasty. Shrimp were okay, a little difficult to peel but flavor was good. Snow crab legs were better than I expected, they were cooked okay. The difficulty is the kickin spice we opted for didn't really compliment the crawfish, but more favored the shrimp. And trying to crack crabs legs proved difficult because there's butter and spice coating them. Corn was surprisingly okay. Sausage was just okay. It ain't no Goldie's. But, it's Cajun not BBQ. It's a pretty small place - maybe 20 tables. And it was packed on a Sunday night about 7:30. read more

I have been 3 times now and I really enjoyed it each time. The guys at the counter can be a little weird but the food is on point

We choose to make our boil instead of going for the combo. It reached about $20 per each one but it was only because the crawfish and shrimp were a $11 a lb. special. Meaning they are at market price so it may vary. Our choice of sauces: Cajun & spicy for the crawfish boil Cajun & spicy spicy for the shrimp boil It was so delicious!!! I can't wait to go back and try the kickin sauce on some crab legs with a side of their gumbo! The service went up and beyond. The environment was clean and Covid19 safe for dining in. read more

Food excellent ; I moved from STL & I seen they had locations here in Texas SUPER HAPPY ! Service ; pleasant depends on who is at the counter , some pretend to not see you to avoid giving customer service Ambiance ; subtle it seems a bit outdated dark and stuffy @ the location on walnut & Jupiter. I always take to go! Food is the best that's the main reason I go delicious and hot; (place order on the way takes about 12- 15 mins to make and bag) read more

Tucked away in a very old neighborhood! But don't be discouraged. The food is so Yummy!! Great flavor and sauces. Friendly environment and really good service. It gets crowded so go early! read more

Service was horrible. Shrimp was hard and rubbery. The sauces were served cold for my friend and yet warm for me. The taste of them was sweet and not savory or spicy as we ordered. The gumbo tasted like canned soup. And they serve kid sized cups with like 4 ice cubes. UPDATE: I felt sick for the next several hours after eating this food. Finally tonight it "released". It's been over 24 hours and I've eaten 3 meals prior to "releasing it" and the only thing that came up was the shrimp and garlic pieces I ate! read more

We went for my birthday as I have had the place in my bookmarks for a while. Really nicely done in the inside, and nice white (butcher paper) table cloths. :) If you plan on getting anything with sauce, like stuff in a bag, don't wear nice clothes. If you are like me you'll get it all over you. Sauce was great and we didn't have any issue with it being enough for the feed we ordered like others have indicated. I enjoyed it quite a bit and recommend it for those who like spicy seafood boils! read more

Kickin Crab - Dungeness crab! - Seafood Near Me - Garland, Texas

Not impressed with this place at all. First time here with some frequent customers . My thing is always about the sauce . We ordered the hottest sauce for the crawfish and it tasted like normal . We asked for the spiciest sauce they have on side and it still taste like mild sauce . We were very disappointed they couldn't provide anything spicy. Food was mediocre and nothing unique . Never a big fan of the gulf coast oysters . Seems like all these crawfish place have only one selection of oysters which is the nasty gulf coast. Snow crab and fries was also mediocre . Services was decent. read more

I took my husband and son there for the first time and we ordered crab boils, shrimp Alfredo and fried shrimp with fries. Our food came out warm and they crab was tough to crack. The crab was so small mind you we had snow crab and king crab. I'm use to crab boils coming with 2 pieces corn and 4 to 6 sausages and they told us the combo had it with one each. The fried shrimp had a good flavor and the fries were shoestring cut. I will not be going back to KC. I should have stayed with Super Shack. They are the best. Their food comes out piping hot and the crabs are nice size and easy to crack. I just felt that $200 wasn't worth what we got. Super Shack in McKinney is the best hands down for crab boils. I know everyone has their preference but this place didn't do it for me. My family said the same thing. read more

Coming back from my sudden departure (I forgot the password to my account) I have stumbled upon this dingy little restaurant just in the corner of Walnut St. I go in assuming it's a seafood restaurant, until the waiter says it's mostly a bagged seafood location? If you want to do boils then maybe have better presentation; why would I want to eat out of a bag? My family and I wound up getting popcorn shrimp and fish tacos, though the shrimp was incredibly small and the fish unbearably dry. It's ludicrous that the bill was almost 80 dollars. I'm not sure if I'd like to come again. read more

The food was excellent and a our server sky was very friendly and funny. The vibes were on point for what you'd expect from a crab restaurant. Will go again! read more

10/10 service/food is always great!!!! This is my to go to seafood spot. Let me tell you the fried calamari is a game changer dipped into Cajun seafood boil sauce. Every time we go.. it's always a MUST. read more

Delicious food at a reasonable price. Place wasn't too packed, plenty of space for a family dinner. I will be returning!

Me and my family loved this place in Garland. I had the special deals - snow crab special (comes with 1 potato, 1corn and 3 sausages) and add crawfish and egg (medium spice and Kickin style seasoning). My family also did the snow crab special and added 1/2 shrimp. Ordered fries and onion rings. We truly loved the service, they were very attentive and asked how was the food and if we needed a refill. The ambiance gave chill vibes and it was really packed. Me and my family will be back again. This actually is the best seafood boil restaurant that I have been to and they did not disappoint. read more

kickin style is the best. fresh. nice staff alway smile with you every time you come. best place to eat seafood

The food was seasoned to perfection. The entire restaurant was clean and inviting to customers to dine in. The customer service was wonderful. Our waitress was very attentive to our needs and very caring with the substitutions I had to have to my order. Definitely my new favorite seafood spot. read more

Always love to visit the Kickin' Crab with family when we visit in Texas!! Great stuff!

This restaurant is absolutely underrated. The food is AMAZING!!! My friend and I came after church on a Sunday. I ordered the fried shrimp basket and she got the crayfish with their signature seasoning/butter sauce. Everything came out so fast and the food was perfection. I have to say that they serve some of the best fried shrimp and seasoned fries! The crayfish as well was so so good. I couldn't imagine how delicious everything was. Not only that service was excellent and the restaurant was so clean. I'll definitely be returning! read more

Food was amazing- I think I got a decent amount of crab in my bag for the price and all of the servers were super sweet

Overpriced and not worth it in my opinion, I haven't even started eating and I'm already disappointed. $36 for 5 pieces of shrimp and I tried to order gumbo but I only wanted shrimp in the gumbo but apparently there's no altering the gumbo. Kinda weird in my opinion but I went to this place thinking it was the one I went to when I came to Dallas last month.....Oh and they didn't put any gloves or napkins in the bag so that's great. read more

amazing food & great service. place was very clean and staff was very kind 10/10 recommend. the crawfish and crab was delicious

The food just wasn't good. The lobster was extremely overcooked. There was tons of seasoning in the bag and all over everything but the crab tasted like it was boiled in straight water with no seasoning. read more

So let's start by saying I totally forgot to get a snap of my food I was extremely hungry! Lol So I found this place looking for another place. However this place was sooo clean on the inside & the staff was fairly nice & ready go answer questions. They have a number of specials. I got the crab special that came w/ two big clusters, 1 potato, 1 corn & sausages but because I don't eat pork & all that they allowed me to get an extra potato or corn. She suggest I get the kickin' style which is all flavors in one, and I got hot.. and I could've went for extra hot because it was hot like expected. The kickin' style flavor is a bit sweet.. but it was good. I also got the edamame spicy on the side & steamed broccoli added inside the bag. I really enjoyed the edamame! Soo good. That was actually spicy. My food was fresh & hot! I enjoyed it! And thanks for not being stingy with the sauce! read more

my favorite seafood restaurant!!! the kickin style sauce (spicy) is the best sauce in the entire dallas area! every time I go, I always order crawfish and the service is always great. I'm pretty much a regular now because of how obsessed I am with the food here. the cajun seasoning on the cajun fries is also amazing! and if I'm being honest, this is a better option to the kickin crab in carrollton... no shade to the other location; the sauce and the service is just not the same. read more

I went to kickin crab yesterday in Garland Off of walnut street I said I was not going back after my last review I put sometimes you want to give a restaurant a second chance well I did and I was wrong I pay a total of $117.00 something first my order was $107.00 then I order and half pounds of shrimps they charger $10 for 8 shrimps that's a half pound that's crazy ok the cheated me out of $36 it suppose be 3 orders plus a side of cluster well I got home I did not get my son order I was charged $36 but I didn't get my other order so that was my last time apparently they don't care about the reviews but don't eat there the crablegs was soft shell and skinny the crab legs I thought they supposed to be hard shell this time they are trash if you don't know what you want they will not help you at all ordering so this my second time I order something and got charged for it and didn't get I lost $36 because I trust them putting my orders together they are over rated I will be posting on other platforms I'm done eating there thats my last draw and they really don't care at all read more

The food was great! The crab, potatoes, sausage, and corn had an excellent flavor. They really need to have the tiny forks that help remove the smaller pieces of crab meat-the crackers alone aren't enough. Our service was ok. It was SO loud inside the restaurant that it definitely took away from the dining experience. read more

After driving pass this spot for a few weeks I mustered up the energy to check it out after work. I wanted anything with shrimp!!! I lucked out they had grilled shrimp tacos on the menu. #SCORE I added an order of cajun fries to complete my meal. Shrimp tacos: Nice Cajun flavor on the shrimp, the pico could have used a little more cilantro and onion. Fries: Freshly cooked with seasoning added. Nothing special. read more

Go to the kickin crab every time my boyfriend and I have a craving for some seafood and it never misses. I usually get a pound of shrimp and a pound of mussels with a side of rice and walk out feeling I'm going to explode. So filling and so delicious. The food is great so there's usually always a wait time but it's so worth it. Staff is pretty attentive when checking on you. It's kind of a small location compared to Carrollton but same type of aesthetic. My usual go to place when wanting a crab boil type of sit down and eat. Will try ordering to go next time it's busy just to check consistency and convenience. read more
