Won't let me do 1/2 stars but my real rating is 3.5. Service is good. Seated right away. Price isn't bad. The bag is a nice portion. I usually get the Special- 1/2 pound of crab legs, 1/2 pound of shrimp, instead of potatoes I do 2 corns and it also comes with 2 eggs. I also add a side of broccoli to my boil. Sooo good...and filling. What I didn't like is the overall cleanliness. It's surface clean and therefore not dirty or I wouldn't even eat there, but it's not the level of clean I'd like to see. My feet were slightly sticking to the floor, the bathroom could use a wipe down of the walls and floors, the water in the bathroom never got warm. Pros: Value, Taste, Service Cons: Could be cleaner. Decor is lacking read more

It was my first time trying this restaurant and it was bomb. My daughter and I got the seafood boil it was seasoned to perfection. First time trying green tea shot and it was great. Service was awesome and ambiance was cle read more

The food was good the customer service was very much trash. From the front door and the hostess station they were rude and dismissive. When I rude I mean talking over me. Assuming I'm with one party when I'm telling them I don't know those people and still tried to seat me with them. Our server was clearly going back and forth with someone or some people on her phone. She kept texting. Forgot our food several times. Messed up the orders three times. Had a nasty attitude and just could not, would not smile. We could all tell that she was going through something. That doesn't dismiss our entire experience being bad to the point we left earlier before we were done eating. I'm not interested in returning although the food was good. It was not get treated badly good. Ah ah ah. I do not recommend. I'll try other places. I'm giving it three stars because the food was good. read more

This is really my only option for a seafood boil in the town, solely bc of the sauce. I love the Juicy Special Extra Hot with Letter D choice of boil. Recently I started coming just to order sauce for home. The seafood isn't like the best but it's definitely not the worse. I also suggest white rice on the side bc it literally will help fill you up if the boil won't. My best advice would be to avoid paying extra for a lobster tail in the boil bc it comes out tasting just like sh read more

King Crab - Seafood Near Me - Cheektowaga, New York

Crab and seafood tasted good, however overpriced. The worst "jambalaya" I've ever had. Food was fast and service good but I would never come back read more

Shrimp was boiled in a bag and I asked if it was "broiled" and they said yes. Language problem....and service was unfriendly and distant. I asked for butter for my potatoes and I got a little puddle of butter in a bowl, liquid, not enough for my potatoes. I would have gotten corn on cob but could not get server to understand my question about corn.....got the info that it was the tiny corn that Chinese restaurants serve. Left server minimum tip.......nasty disposition and terrible attitude. read more

This is the second or third time at King Crab. The food is always good! I was a bit surprised at how few potatoes (2 small) and corn you get with meal (1 small quarter). The drinks were also very expensive. But the Cajun butter is so good. This is definitely a place you go to treat yourself to some decent seafood. I had the shrimp and lobster tail. Both very good. My family had the clams and they enjoyed them. Our daughter had the King crab legs Ava while they were good, she struggled to get them open and our server forgot her tools. When you are seated, the host places a long paper on the table, as you are sure to make a mess. While it seems juvenile, wear your bib! The meal can get messy. Unfortunately, I didn't take photos this time around. I'll be back and will update my review accordingly. read more

They have a special running for the month of January where they give you 2 lobster tails, muscles, about 4-6 crab leg cluster a few pounds of shrimp . Sausage, potatoes & corn for $99! Was enough for 3-4 people. The staff was ok. Definitely got our money worth read more

The food came super quickly- there was the perfect amount of flavor in the sauce. Super friendly and helpful staff, the area was super clean and perfectly decorated. Never waited more than 10 minutes for anything (including food and drink after order). The king crab was probably the best, super juicy and hugee peaces. I'll definitely be back. read more

King Crab - Empty bowl of M10. King Crab Legs with Potatoes - Seafood Near Me - Cheektowaga, New York

Great visit I stopped in just after opening, I ordered the daily special which comes with 1lb crab legs , sausage, corn , potatoes , shrimp, 2 eggs. No complaints except for the fact the server came back after I ordered and told me they were out of eggs . It's like a sin to eat a seafood boil with no eggs but they managed to put a smile on my face by offering extra and potatoes , the sauce was particularly better than usual I ordered the juicy special extra Hot very buttery and had nice size chunk's of garlic in it. Anybody who knows seafood boil spots come a dime a dozen it's all about the sauce and how stingy they are with their crab legs that separates them in my opinion lol . Definitely my # 2 spot next to storming crab being my 1# . I'll be back for another seafood fix sooner than later . read more

King Crab for the win! They are usually not busy and quick to seat you upon arrival. The food comes out quickly. Since we don't live close to a Juicy Seafood, King Crab is typically our next stop. We've only tried this location once, but were thoroughly impressed. The crab is not priced too expensive and the environment is very quiet and low key. Food was good, we got the spicy sauce and were impressed. Both of our lips were burning! We would definitely give it a try again. read more

Really Not Good...Service was excellent but food quality was Sub par, got a snow crab boil, not good!! My daughter loves jambalaya..DO NOT ORDER jambalaya!! It was some cesspool very bad interpretation of an amazing creole dish!!! read more

I know this place has had some recent less than stellar reviews but I don't think those were very fair, so here is my detailed birthday experience from this past Saturday. Atmosphere: Cute. Definitely can't mist from the the outside. Very adorable decor. Love the chalkboard wall in the entranceway and the pirate stature. Tables were nicely spaced from each other, chairs were sturdy and it was nice and clean. Staff: Reservations were easy to make. They handled it gracefully when our party size went from seven to four on the day of. Our server was a young guy and I'm so sorry I didn't get his name because he was friendly, made recommendations, checked on a us a few times and refilled drinks when asked. (This is an Asian ran seafood experience. Service is traditionally brisk, so if you aren't used to it, you might consider it rude. It's not, they just don't like to trouble people who are eating unless they are needed. It takes exactly two seconds to ask for something.) Food: So I love cajun seafood boils. Crab is my favorite thing. We built our own and went with four lobster tails, two pounds of snow crab and a pound of head off shrimp. We added two orders or potatoes, two orders of corn and one order of broccoli. (Honestly, the broccoli absorbed to much seasoning, so Id pass on that for noodles next time.) The sauce we went with is the Juicy Special. A combo of all the seasonings mixed with butter. And heat level was mild as most of my family doesn't handle spice as well as I do. It was really good. I could have poured that boil sauce on the paper table cloth and eaten it. (No joke, the provide spoons so you can drizzle it on your seafood after you peel/crack it. We used them to add the sauce to our bowls of rice. (Which we added on extra.) One hundred percent would come back here again. Price: You can complain all you want that the cost is high. Welcome to America in 2023. Everything is high and it's seafood. These people provide nice food and service. And I thought it was pretty much on par with the other local boil options. Two apps, 3 soft drinks, 3 bowls of rice, some cajun fries and a build your own boil was below $200 (Before tip). We are large eaters and we were all stuffed, so amount compared to price was just fine. Left a $50 tip for our server because he earned it. We definetly plan on coming back here again. Doesn't even have to be for a special occasion. read more

Fabulous dinner to celebrate my sisters birthday. Our food was each cooked to level and amount of butter requested; neat experience having it come out in the steam bags. The waiter was very helpful to us as our first time explaining everything and our options. The price was definitely a deal for this amazing tasting food. Will go to this restaurant anytime I am back in the area. read more

On a Friday night out with friends, we figured we'd go to King Crab instead of the close alternative assuming it'd be less busy. We were right! Upon entry, we were seated immediately. Shortly after the waiter came with the menus, ready to take our orders. One of my friends had found a coupon online, so make sure to look before you go! I had the crab and shrimp with the juicy sauce which is a blend of the different sauce offerings with less butter. You also get to choose the spice level. I found my medium spicyness to be perfect, however my friend was hoping for a bit more fire from the medium. The seafood was cooked to perfection! All of us enjoyed. I would go here again. The ambiance is casual yet and clean! read more

If I could give a negative 5 I would. My guest and I never even got a chance to look at the menu. My guest I brought with me on 10/20 /2024 is in a power chair , they set us at a both, I told the host "Do you think this is a good idea , he might be in the way ?" She said "No it should be fine!" She proceeded to walk away and started talking to her coworker (not in English I say that to say I don't know what they were saying). She comes back and says my coworker said " we can move you guys to the back party area so you'll have more room!" Now we are looking like wtf a whole party room for just 2 of us mind you the WHOLE RESTAURANT WAS EMPTY IT WAS JUST US TWO!!! Not to a table in a different area but a whole party room in the back away from everyone. Out of sight is what it seems like. This is not back in the 60's and 70's and 80's where you hide disabled body people. He is a person and a very well college educated person. You want him moved in a bad area away from no body because like I said it was EMPTY. Very rude very distasteful very bias and very disrespectful. Establishments like this need to be stopped from this behavior and know that disability is not contagious. read more

Very solid food! And fast service. King crab legs were delicious. Snow crab legs too. Unfortunately they were out of blue crab legs. Dungeness crab was fine too. Potatoes and corn were tasty too. With garlic butter and salt they were perfect. Juicy house sauce combines everything - it's not separate sauces that you get. All around a good experience. Will visit again next time we are in the area. read more

My child and I were seated and forgot about. We sat there for 20 minutes waiting for someone to come to our table and no one ever came back. it wasn't busy. There were hardly any customers. We decided to leave. The girl who sat us saw us walking out and didn't say anything. That was my 1st time coming here and for sure my last. read more

Where do I start?! The food: amazing. Service: Terrific! Crab legs: 10/10! We had to hold my friend back because his stomach was about to burst! He couldn't get enough! read more

I am absolutely a seafood boil lover. This one just recently opened up and had to give it a try. Nice atmosphere inside. Not to busy for a Saturday evening. Only had to wait a few minutes for a table without a reservation. I always order the King crab boil whenever I go to a place like this. I enjoyed my meal. There sauce for the boil was really flavorful I had the juice special seasoning with medium spice sauce . Not my #1 seafood boil spot in WNY, but definitely would come back again. read more

the manager at this location is very rude and disrespectful!! HE DID NOT GIVE HIS NAME !! literally took a pop can out the trash and threw it on our table really hard and aggressively !! the other staff was absolutely NO HELP when we were trying to figure out why he did that and what the issue was!! the food is very MID !! not a lot of seasoning everything was watered down. The amount of disrespect i received from this establishment was unreal! I will never come here again. better luck on Transit!

I had the oyster po boy four little oysters on that big roll for $17.00 Very disappointed.this was on walden ave. read more

The food was good and the service moderately ok. I gave it 3 stars, because they refused to honor a published discount that I was able to prove to them being associated with their restaurant and location. They maintained that they did not know about it. They agreed it was their restaurant, but did not know anything about the discount. Even if that were true they still could have discounted a portion of the bill and they didn't . I will not be going back. read more

Great food. Good service. A good place to celebrate special occasions. Even took home a doggie bag!

Food was good quality. A bit pricy for what we got but seafood is expensive these days. My husband and I both had the choose two. Service was initially good but slowed down- had to wait a long time for our check and to cash out. It was best the end of the night so I think waitress was busy closing out. read more

King Crab - Seafood Near Me - Cheektowaga, New York

I visited the restaurant in Sat . June 3, and the staff was very rude. I asked him to throw something out for me and he ignored me so I thre wit in the nearest garbage I seen. The manager then proceeds to my empty can out the trash and slam it into the bucket on my table. My friend and I kept asking the waitress for information on the manger for (name and such) and they gave us a hard time even twilling us anything. We finally spoke to the manager and he was very rude, going off saying he did t want to argue yet not hearing out side of story . How dare you slam anything on my table while I pay money to go here? Staff are very rude and something needs to be done about it read more

First sign should've been the almost empty restaurant on Saturday at 8pm. While the waiter was good, the food was not. My date had the fried shrimp and fries. The breading on the shrimp just fell off, but they were large. We had the calamari. which were just rings served with sweet and sour sauce. I ordered the lobster and crab poboy with onion rings. For $17 I had a spoonful of whatever overly-mayo meat they scraped together along with large pieces of lettuce and tomato. I didn't notice the lack of meat until I took my 1st and only bite of basically a veggie sandwhich. When I told my waiter I didn't like it and wanted something else, like so many other reviews before mine, there was nothing he could do but offer me 10% off. While I managed to get it up to 15% off it didn't really put a dent in our $65. Btw, we did have a Long Island Ice tea and and Bahama Mama, which were decent. All in all I would never go back again and wouldn't recommend this place except to enemies...if I had any. read more

The FOOD WAS AND ALWAYS IS EXCELLENT. BUT THE CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS LUKEWARM. We asked to sit away from people because of COVID concerns and despite there being a number of tables available, the host at the door (male asian) said we could not sit in any of those areas. So we decidwd to take out. Then a party of 5 comes in and sits in one of the areas, I ask about it and the hosts gets smart with me..."when you are a party of 5 you can sit there.". When we got the food, they were out of something I ordered but instead of refunding AND giving me a gift card on the house, he says he is giving me a gift card on the house and never refunds---I am from out of town, how often will I be here. Lastly, no napkins, gloves for boil bag, utensils or condiments for the food we purchased were in the bag. read more

If you're interested in a cajun seafood boil this is the place for you. Otherwise don't bother. Our server was wonderful, but that's about it. I went specifically for oysters on my birthday but they were out. Got fried scallop appetizer instead. They were overdone and tasteless. I splurged on a Pina colada and even that was disappointing. Overpriced mediocre, bland food. read more

The Cajun boil I had was fantastic. Easy ordering and was ready on time. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the area.
