Soft Shell Crab
Elliot S.

This place was really good, I'll be back. I ordered the Dungeness crab clusters and the soft shell crab. The seasonings were on point and there was so much soft shell crab, other places like this usually give you two crabs cut in half, so four pieces total. They played really good music too, so that's a plus. Lastly, our server was awesome, super friendly!

Atmosphere The restaurant has a casual, laid-back vibe, suitable for families and groups. Decor is themed around a coastal seafood shack, contributing to the overall dining experience. Pricing Prices are generally considered reasonable for the quality and quantity of food offered. The menu features a variety of options, including shrimp, lobster, and fish, often served with flavorful sauces. You can feel the freshness and flavor of the seafood, particularly the crab dishes. Staff it's friendly and attentive. Recommended .

Good deal with this  promotion coupon.

This is a new location of it. Food was great and quick service, staff are nice and helpful. Highly recommended

Dinner special. A lobster tail, a pound of shrimp, corn on the cob and a potato.
Kellie V.

We tried this place for the first time last night and it was delicious. The service was good but we got our appetizer after the food was delivered. I did not care for the fried calamari but everything else was great! I think the prices are reasonable. I had the special of a lobster tail, lb of shrimp, corn on the cob and a potato. Absolutely worth the $25. I also liked that the restaurant was very clean.

Food was DELICIOUS! My usual go to for seafood boil was Angry Crab Shack, but I feel like it's always been a hit or miss for me. I ordered 1 lb head on shrimp with the house special seasoning, it was on point. The prices were also affordable and not too crazy, I definitely recommend if you're searching for THAT seafood spot. Service was also quick and super friendly. Bring the business here, it's well deserved!

Always great service and food! Call ahead because wait times can get busy around dinner so having a reservation is always key. Happy hours have a great specials as well..

The service was fast and friendly. We went for Happy Hour and we were blown away! Wine $3.50 for a generous pour of pino grigio that paired nicely with a hearty gumbo and a plate of fried goodies straight from Cajun country! The remolaude sauce and ranch were my favorite. The atmosphere was casual and the prices were great. My husband and I love good Louisiana cooking and this place has it! Definitely my new go to place. Next time crab legs!

Frog legs
Marco M.

Very disappointed. Drove 30 minutes to pick up our order of fried frog legs, fried calamari, and fried gator. All three were very chewy. Obviously over fried. Very disappointed.

Eddie O.

Once again LA CRAB never disappoints! 6 pounds of shrimp with corn and sausage and potatoes! It was very delicious down to the last shrimp ! Very good solid customer service and the aura of this place is immaculate

Once again, Baby Kay's Cajun Kitchen did not disappoint…read more We ordered the hush puppies with sausage and the chicken gumbo, and both were excellent. The chicken was incredibly tender, with just the right amount of heat to keep you coming back for more. James, the bartender, greeted us like regulars even though we don't visit as often as we should. There was live music playing and a steady stream of customers coming in for dine-in and to-go orders, which says a lot about how loved this place is. From the staff to the customers, everyone was friendly and welcoming. We truly enjoy the Southern vibe and always leave happy.

For me, I'm relatively new to it besides po boys and jambalaya. I've had Baby Kay's on my list for a while, and we happened to be nearby. We stopped in on a Saturday around noon. It wasn't packed, but wasn't dead. The decor is Mardi Gras. We had a hard time deciding what to try so we decided to try items we already know well and get a baseline for the flavors. We shared the shrimp po boy w/ fries and the rice & beans with sausage. We also had a side salad that came with the rice & beans. All in all everything was good. We would come back and try some other things, including the crawfish. Staff was friendly, and service was quick.

The service is typically always great, can be a bit slower on the weekends or peak time but no biggie. I've tried everything from their drinks, appetizers, hibachi, seafood, and most recently what blew my mind was their fried catfish! So good after frequenting someplace else in the area went back again for a to go order. Something that I wouldn't note is that if you are going with a larger group they do charge an 18% gratuity for 6 or more. All in all, no complaints definitely a hidden gem!

The shrimp was overcooked and rubbery. The scallops tasted very fishy, like a cheap store brand…read moreproduct. We also had the stir‑fried noodles, which were decent. We complained about the shrimp and scallop quality and were only offered 20% off -- they didn't even offer to remake the dish. I did eat the side items -- the corn and potato -- because the waitress never came by to check on us or ask how our food was. I refused to pay for the seafood portion, and they actually called the police on me. I have never been treated so badly by a restaurant, especially when the food quality was that poor. So beware: if the food quality is bad and you feel it's unfair to pay for it, they will threaten you with the police -- who clearly have more important things to deal with than responding to a restaurant's food‑quality complaint.

Had high hopes after reading the great comments in the AZ Republic…read more Ordered 2 pieces of chicken. The sides we decided on were potato salad and the candied yams. Had biscuits instead of corn bread The chicken was over cooked and the wing and drumstick was rather lean Potato salad was so salty it was inedible. The biscuits were very dense, not at all light or flakey The upside were the candied yams. They were good The server was excellent. The food let her down.

The location is accurate and your best parking option is the garage for 2800 N Central. It is a pay lot but CC's will validate your parking receipt. CC's is a soul food type of restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. I visited for lunch about 3 weeks ago. I read the fried chicken is popular so I ordered the 4 piece version with sides of rice and gravy along with some maque choux and a biscuit for $21. The food arrived about 15 minutes later on a big plate. The chicken pieces had a dark brown crust and were quite good tasting. Not too crusty and with hot and flavorful meat on the bone. The rice and light brown gravy were good and the maque choux looked different from the South Louisiana variety but I still enjoyed it. It had corn, tomatoes, onions and bell peppers in it. I'll bet few locals have ever heard of it! The tablevservice was good too. This was a lot of food and I didn't finish it all but it was all good tasting and very close to real southern style cooking. I would be happy to return.

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.

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.
