There is main floor and basement seating. I like how Lowcountry has sinks in the open and that you don't have to go to the bathroom to wash your hands. I usually go to the south loop location but the lakeview location is a solid choice. They have a good weekday specials - Wednesday and Thursday. It consists of a cluster of crab legs, 1/2 pound shrimp, potatoes, corn, and corn bread. If you're paying with a credit card, there is a surcharge. read more

As someone who has been to the original Wabash location and the Chinatown location, I must say that this one is -- MY FAVORITE LOCATION OF THEM ALL! I love the NOLAadjacent theme of the restaurant and the service is always great. I normally do one of the specials with the crab and shrimp, adding extra eggs because I love a good egg with my shrimp lol. I also love that their hottest is really hot! The drinks are amazing too. AND THEY OFFER WEEKDAY SPECIALS ALL THE TIME! I have to get in there and try their smash burger next, even though that's a funny menu option for a seafood spot, I'm sure it doesn't disappoint! read more

Lowcountry Lakeview - Garlic butter noodles. 1/2lb shrimp, eggs, potatoes, and corn boil bag. Jalapeño cornbread. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place has been on my list for way too long. Decided to finally try it on Good Friday!! Was a little nervous about parking since its in a busy area but we easily found parking right in front. They don't take reservations so it can get busy quick. You browse the menu at your table first then go up and order at the counter. For 2 people, we shared the Double Double and beignets for dessert! The big back in me didn't think it would be enough food for 2 but I was so wrong. The combo comes with shrimp, 2 snow crab, 2 corns, potatoes, and 4 pieces of their delicious cornbread! The everythang sauce was banginnnn. Warning - your mouth will taste like garlic for 2-3 days after! It was my fiance's first time having seafood boil and he loved it! To end the meal, we couldn't decide on the fried oreos or beignets but ended up getting the beignets. So good! read more

I've been to many seafood cajun boil restaurants and I have to be honest, this wasn't comparable, especially for the price. It was almost $100 for two people, and the flavor of the sauces were lacking the Cajun taste we were looking for. It wasn't BAD but it tasted like they just decided to mix whatever they think will taste good in the sauce. There was no real thought in how these different flavors could complement each other. It was just salty, and the other flavors were almost nonexistent. Another issue is there weren't a lot of combo choices, and that forces you to "build your own." Most Cajun places I've been to, when you build your own, potatoes and corn are automatically included, but at Low Country, you have to pay for them separately. I would give this a two star but the seafood was cooked well and the sausage tasted great. And the workers were pretty nice. But would not recommend this place if you're looking for quality Cajun boil that will hit the spot with rich flavors. read more

I ordered two 1 pound shrimp combo bags. One bag had their "everythang" sauce with heat level 1. The other bag had Cajun with heat level 2. They honestly both tasted the same two me. Couldn't tell the difference. Most importantly, it was delicious. The heat level was just right as well as the sauce. The sauce also made the corn and the potatoes taste delicious. I hate peeling shrimp. Especially when all the sauce comes off the shrimp when you're done peeling it. So I peeled all my shrimp first, threw it back in the bag and shook it up to make sure all my shrimp was coated in the sauce before it went it my mouth. Absolutely delicious. I ordered online and this is the best service I have ever received with an online order. They text you, call you to confirm your order and call you when your order is complete. Will definitely be returning. read more

Love this spot! Since my last review they have changed things. You stand in line to order and they bring your food to the table. I always get the DIY bag, and my favorite things to add are the shrimp, sausage and potato with a side of jalapeno cheddar cornbread. I would double up on sausage instead of getting corn next time. The everything seasoning is their most popular, though they have 4 options to choose from. You do have to work for your meal. The shrink don't come unpeeled, but that's past of what makes it fun. They provide bibs and gloves so you don't get messy. They have a sink so you can wash your hands in the restaurant. read more

We came here for my birthday dinner. My husband found this place online as we've tried other places for the same type of food the place was basically empty. The lucky part was that we found a parking right outside when somebody got out otherwise you would have to literally search for parking ! We got there at about eight. The snow crabs were so small and pricey 25.00 for a set of maybe 4 little pieces- Oh they do not offer any water and. No one comes to check on you. They have a tip jar next to their register and to be honest I'm not sure why because they disappear and they bring out your food and they walk away and that's the last time you see them! Also the cornbread had jalapeños in it which I didn't care for- they should just stick with plain not everybody eats jalapeños, and the shrimp did not taste like they were cooked in the sauce the shrimp taste like the sauce was already made, and they were tossed in there at the last minute and then brought out... which explains why our food was brought out in less than 20 minutes - the picture is nice, but that's all it was. I wish the food was just as good and this is just my honest opinion. I ordered the second combo on their board. My husband ordered combo number five .You have to order at the checkout counter. You don't order at your table. One thing I did find cute where the cute bottles of homemade... a little too sweet for my taste ... but I can repurpose them at home. We spent over $100 .. I gave it 2 stars because I like the little juice containers- On to the next seafood boil spot. ‍ read more

Lowcountry was the first seafood boil spot I had when I first moved to chicago. I searched " where to eat seafood boil in Chicago" and it was the first one that came up! They have amazing flavor with a thicker sauce, and a wide range of fresh seafood that perfectly curbed my seafood cravings. Service is a little weird. We sat there for 10minutes before we knew we had to order at the counter inside. Probably should add some signs . Otherwise the people are nice and there's a hand washing station in the middle Ive been here 3 times now , 2times in south loop for take out and dine in and once here. So it's absolutely delcious.

Portion size was pretty sizeable and I shared with 3 people. The taste itself was good but nothing to write home about. I am not too familiar with seafood boils so not sure what to compare it too but we got the mild spicy with the everything sauce. It is pretty salty. They give you a bib and a bin for garbage and there are hang washing stations. The price is more expensive but I feel like that's expected at a boil. Again, not too familiar so not sure what to expect. There is no service - everything is self service except for when you order. Would go again overall! Ambiance - outdoor bbq picnic vibes read more

I mean come ON it's such good value and it's so delicious, I got some garlic noodles as a treat too.

Lowcountry Lakeview - Weekday special Garlic Noodles - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I've been to several Cajun boils in the city, and Lowcountry is probably one of my favorite. My husband and I usually get the double double which includes 1 LB of shrimp, 2 snow crab clusters, 4 cornbreads, 3 corns, 6 potatoes, and 2 soda. We also add in sausages and 1 LB of mussels with the everthang sauce (garlic, lemon-pepper, and Cajun sauce). For the heat level, we like hot. It's spicy but tolerable where you won't ruin your meal. FOOD: the portions were decent. I wasn't overly full but definitely satisfied when I left. The mussels and shrimps were large, and the crab legs had a good amount of meat. The cornbread is my favorite thing there. It is sweet but it has some heat to it because of the jalapeños. It is more on the dense side but the flavors are amazing. DRINKS: your meal will come with 2 sodas and there are a variety you can choose from (Pepsi, Sierra Mist, crush, ginger ale, etc.). If you like cocktails, definitely get their hurricane cocktail or their margaritas. Strong but not overly sweet. SERVICE: it is self service where you will have to go to the counter to order your food and someone will bring it out to you. So I can't really comment on their service. The only down side of Lowcountry is that your fingers will smell like seafood for hours. As mush as I washed my hands, the smell lingered for what it seemed like for 2 days. Overall, I love this place and everyone I have taken there also loves this place. WARNING: if you easily get heartburn like my husband, you will mostly need antacids before and after. read more

Wow. What happened here? Nothing good, let me tell you. Hadn't been to Lowcountry in almost 5 years. This will be my last visit. Sauce was still delicious, but head-on shrimps are off the menu. The "giant prawns" were stone cold throughout and when I told the fella at the counter where you order, but he didn't care. Worst of all, you had to run two different tabs - one at the bar and another for your food - inside the same restaurant. Which is absurd and made ordering more to eat or grabbing another drink way or obnoxious than it ever ought to be. We've got a lot of options for seafood boil here in Chicago. Lowcountry just go booted way down the list. read more

This was such a cool eating experience in a hotspot of lake view. I'm not too much of a city person as I tend to like my peace and quiet in the suburbs. However, I cannot deny that the city of chicago produces some amazing spots to eat. And lowcountry lake view certainly was one of them. I will say this place can be cheap or expensive, depends on the combination of seafood you go for. My gf and I went for the big shots as it was her birthday and I wanted to treat my queen. We went for the king crab legs, crawfish, potatoes and corn with (I think) spicy garlic sauce and garlic noodles as a side I will say. This is a dinner if you don't mind getting super messy with and just say f*** it and eat everything with your hands. We loved the food as it was heavy in garlic, a little salty but flavorful as hell. I will say one side order of potatoes and corn wasn't enough - should've went for two as one order ain't it Crab was delicious and so was the crawfish. And everything with the garlic noodles was so bomb I will say next time we go - we will try out some of the fried stuff. Awesome decor and amazing delicious food Highly recommend read more

Lowcountry Lakeview - Interior - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Delicious! We got the shrimp, sausage, corn, and potatoes. Everything was amazing! Def recommend

The place it's very cozy and they have all the utensils that you need to not get dirty while you're eating all the types of seafood . The staff was nice and friendly,they gave us information what to do after they sit us at the table and also advise with the best sauce choices. The only thing that I can complain it's that the garlic sauce that I choose was extremely salty and I like salt but this one was too much but I'll give a chance again for sure.:) There it's also a bar where you can order shots and any kind of special cocktails,music which it's making the place fun especially for a Saturday night out. Prices are normal so it's okay for almost any budget plus the bags with food and combo are ok for 2 people too. read more

Looked at reviews for Lowcountry Loop and Chinatown locations and decided to take a farther Uber ride to this Lakeview location and happy I did. The service was okay, nothing special. The sauce and seafood were good and the flavors were delicious minus the cornbread as it was too oily and the jalapeño in it ruined it for me; that's just my taste though. The place is clean and wasn't too crowded at 5:30pm so lucky us. I would come back again and that says a lot as I'm not a seafood fan. read more

The food was good, we all enjoyed our food. Would've given a five star rating but they got rid of the specials.

Delicious all around. The shell of the king crab is so soft you dont have to fight hard to get to your dinner. Garlic noodles were a delicious staple. In my opinion the biggest star of the show were the desserts. We tried both fried oreos and beignets. These were probably the best of each ive ever had. I will definitely be returning! read more

Lowcountry Lakeview - king crab, crawfish, potatoes, corn, and Garlic Noodles - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Lowcountry Merrillville , I was rather disappointed tonight. I came in for the $38 special at ur location and had the worst experience. Food was undercooked. Once I brought it to their attention, staff was not accommodating at all and rather rude af! I usually go the one downtown and it's superb but stick a fork in me because Im done. The so called manager said she would get the general manager just so I could have a conversation but he never came and I was told to just go to desk and get a refund and was blown off but clearly seen the manager come out for others that had issues. Don't know if it was because it was a special and they were getting quantity out but clearly forgot about the quality. The music was good tho. Definitely lost a good customer. ‍ read more

It is an honor for my 200th review to go to Lowcountry! What a gem this restaurant is. I've been to a real authentic crawfish boil in the heart of Texas, and I can confidently say this food is the real deal!! So they have pre-set combos you can choose from, or you can build your own bag by choosing a seafood, sauce, spice level, and add-ins like veggies and sausage. There is also a veggie bowl for us non-seafood eaters that comes with potatoes, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, and green beans. For sauces, you choose garlic, lemon pepper, cajun, or a mix of all 3 called Everythang. The everythang is bangin. The food comes out so fast and the portions are massive. Everything in the bag is so dang good and there is plenty of extra sauce. There is also a full bar, and if you come during happy hour, I definitely recommend sitting at the bar. Happy hour at 6pm on a Sunday night was 1/2 off everything - beer, wine, and cocktails. I got a delicious hurricane for literally $6! The super sweet bartender also gave us a shot on the house. The bar also offers full food service, while the rest of the restaurant is an order at the window deal. It had been a while since I ate here, but now I've opened this door again and I have a feeling I'll be back soon!! read more

My friend wanted to come here for her birthday. Since they don't accept reservations we arrived at 5:30 expecting a wait & were surprised there wasn't one. If I had to guess, likely because seafood (in general) is pretty expensive right now. We got a combo with shrimp, crab legs, potatoes, cornbread, & corn. Also ordered a side of popcorn chicken & fries. Everything came out nice & hot. The crab & shrimp were very delicious. While the potatoes & fries were good, everything else was so-so. But let's be honest, you're not really there for all the sides. read more

I love love LOVE LowCountry ! I don't go as often as I'd like but it's my go to spot for seafood boils and you can't forget their incredible cornbread. I can't go to Lowcountry without getting the corn bread! Depending on how many items you get with your bag , it's really easy to share with friends or even get your own. I also really enjoy that I can choose what type of sauce I want and the spice level. I always get the everything sauce with a 2.5 lvl spice. I eat pretty spicy but lvl three is a bit too much for me. I've been to other seafood spots and the sauces at Lowcountry are amazing. Not too salty or too greasy. The waffle fries are a bit underwhelming compared to everything else but they aren't horrible, I just wouldn't order them again. The pina colada was strong! Definitely a nice buzz to enjoy the meal. The restaurant itself is very cute with tons of Mardi Gras decorations giving it a fun vibe! It has a basement as well and it's decked out ! Anytime I've gone, everything was clean , no sticky tables :) Just a reminder that this place gets pretty packed so make sure to go early in case there's a wait! I can't wait to go back! Enjoy everyone read more

We celebrated my cousin's birthday (before the shelter-in-place order) and got takeout from here. There was some mishap with ordering at first. I tried to fill out the online order but it wouldn't submit the page. I called and the guy said that I can't order delivery over the phone nor can I order takeout over the phone, that it all had to be done online. I was frustrated so I had my friend call back 2 min later. When she called, he said it's fine to order takeout over the phone. ??? That aside, there was about 8 people at this celebration. They got down everything right and it was wrapped up securely, which is hard for something this big and saucy! I was impressed. Most of us ordered the Fill Your Own Bag where you can pick your seafood, sauce, spice, and sides. I got shrimp head on, garlic, weak sauce, with a side of potatoes and jalapeño cornbread. It was amazing and SO filling. I did have a little left over and that was still good the day after. My cousins and friends all liked their food too. They said the calamari was okay and the garlic noodles could've had more garlic, but the lobster Mac and cheese was really good. I'll have to try those next time. We had a big ole feast and enjoyed every part of it! And thanks for the bibs too! read more

First time was a Good Time! Let's take it from the top. They don't open until 5pm. Don't be like me, getting all excited and show at 2pm thinking you're about to eat lunch. lol. ‍ The menu prices have changed. Sorry I forgot to get a pic. A - is till the same B, C, & D is now $10 more for each one. You still have to wear your mask to come in and wait to get seated. Then you can take it off. After making selections from the menu, you walk to the cashier, give them your table number, place and pay for your food. Pick up your bucket, beverages (can soda/juice and utensils. Water is complimentary. You can buy bottled water or choose is an option with your combo. You fill your own ice and/or water with the paper cups. Then wait for your food to get delivered to your table. The wait for our food was surprisingly short, considering how many ppl came on Friday night. We purchased the shrimp combo, with an extra snow crab cluster, an order of fried shrimp, extra potatoes, wings, and a side of everything sauce. The fried shrimp was soooo good, we jumped back up and got another order. It was so crispy and get this, the crust did NOT come apart as you ate it. The fried shrimp came with a Cajun aioli sauce so delicious that we took the extra home. It also had a creamy dill sauce that tasted like the tzatziki sauce that you put on a gyro. My daughter loved this sauce the most. I chose Cajun flavored with mild heat for my shrimp combo with the extra snow crab. It was cheaper than the shrimp & snow crab combo. Just in case I didn't like it. The potatoes were filling. Corn crisp. Snow crab was juicy. The cornbread had a great flavor, more on the sweet side, which worked well when you bit into the pepper for a savory kick. The Cajun flavor had a little too much garlic for my taste and could use some old bay seasoning, but was otherwise very delicious. That everything sauce was EveryTHANG. You have to ask for a salt & pepper shaker. We chose the Buffalo flavored wings, fried hard. I did not like the wings, but my daughter liked them. We couldn't even finish half of our food, so today we are eating round two for lunch at home. Side Note: There's side street metered parking in Lakeview. There's a lot of construction on the CTA subway going on in this area. There are other establishments as well. Timing is everything. If you can't find parking, sit in the delivery tow zone on the same block. We ended up doing that. When someone pulled off, we drove up into a spot. We figured this out, watching someone else, after driving through the neighborhood for 15 mins. The closest garage is 2-3 blocks away. read more

My absolute most favorite seafood boil in all of the Chicago area. The food is very fresh. My family and I chose what we wanted in our bags. The price is a little more expensive than other seafood boil restaurants, but I think it is very worth it. I suggest getting all of the sauces in your bag, especially if you like spicy! The service is great. The food came out fast. The decor inside the restaurant is cute and unique. It has a sailor/boat theme inside the restaurant. The handwash area is in a metal tub that acts as the sink. read more

Yooo this place is seriously the bomb. I'm drooling writing the review the morning after and am also in a depression state knowing there are no leftovers in the fridge. Guess I'll just need to go back, because holy moly this is the real deal. We honestly stumbled upon this place because everything seemed to be already full at capacity (during COVID-19) where we stopped at and were walking to our next potential place to try and dine in at, but saw this one on our way. It was literally 10 degrees outside and by no means did we want to walk any further so it was already a good idea to stop here and try it. I had it bookmarked since moving here so why not?! The staff was very friendly and the food was just next level. Ordered a plate of wings with buffalo sauce and that shit was fireeee. we also ordered 2 cocktails (both pretty strong - and perfect), and Combo A which satisfied the two of us sharing those items. Our other friend got a separate build your own mussel plate as well as a margarita and waffle fries. We were SO happy to end up here though. For real, the fact that they had alchy and it was a casual dining experience made everything better all while having fire ass food. We WILL be back considering we live in the neighborhood and I'm always wanting a NOLA - Cajun type fix.... mmmm I may just order again today. read more

Walking down Clark looking for a a good dinner spot and you could smell the garlic from the sidewalk. We found a seat at the bar. Our bartender was outstanding. Very engaging and friendly. He was happy to help with a tour of the menu and suggestions as we had neither been to place. I had a margarita which was very sweet. Good as a starter. We tried the fried shrimp, cornbread, and a shrimp boil. The cornbread is awesome slathered in honey butter with evident pieces of jalapeño. The shrimp is served with a Cajun type dipping sauce with a little heat. The shrimp boil in lemon pepper sauce was delicious. Tons of pepper for spice and garlic. I ordered the hot temperature and it has a good heat level. The red potatoes and broccoli were cooked perfectly. This is a big portion. Perfect for sharing. We will definitely return to this or other locations. read more

Lowcountry Lakeview - Combo D - Double Double Combo for Two Person - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This is a post Covid review: I'm a bit torn writing this review, but decided to proceed in case it helps anyone avoid a dangerous situation. Pre-Covid: 5 stars. Post Covid: 5 stars on food, ZERO STARS on Covid stuff. I tried to order a custom boil to pick up through their online system during the last week of September on a weeknight, it was down, so I called and no one picked up. I ended up driving over and ordering in store. The staff were super kind and useful, however I was horrified to see that the place was fairly crowded and several customers were freely moving throughout the space (Washing hands, visiting other tables, going to the restroom) without masks and with no social distancing. The air circulation was not great (it was pretty warm and muggy) so it especially felt incredibly unsafe. I immediately complained to the server who took my order at the register. It sounded like they do ask folks to wear masks when not at their tables but people don't listen and there was nothing they could do about it. I completely empathized with the server, as so many people react aggressively when asked to wear masks so I imagine trying to enforce that it may feel unsafe to the server team. I haven't realized the situation inside until I started placing my order at the register at the back of the restaurant. Had I known, we probably would have skipped-- my husband and I have been quarantined since March so this is the only situation I've been in where I could have potentially contracted with the virus--it completely freaked me out. I wasn't comfortable waiting inside for my order to be prepared, because of the people without masks, so the server kindly agreed to bring the order out to my car. The food was great, absolutely no complaints there but I will not be back for a pick up order while we are still dealing with an airborne pandemic. While I hope, for everyone's safety, the restaurant figures out an enforcement system regarding customers moving throughout the space unmasked, If you're in a high risk group for a severe reaction to COVID-19, this might not be the best place for you right now. read more

This place is amazing! The food is great! If you don't like seafood this probably isn't the best place for you to come to eat. The food is sold at market prices which may seem a little high, however for the combo meals for families/couples, you get a great deal of food for a great price. If you're coming here do yourself a favor and order extra cornbread. It's amazing! The flavor of the food is great and while it's definitely messy it's so worth it. They have cute wash basins to wash your hands after you finish eating. Portion sizes are large as well for ordering a la carte items as well as the combos. The interior isn't super big so plan your time appropriately as I can see this being a hard place to get in during peak times. Parking isn't too bad to find here either depending on the time that you're in the area. read more

Cajun boil at its best. Visited Lowcountry with my dad and my daughter. We ordered the Snow Crab legs with everything (Cajun, Lemon pepper, and Garlic sauces). I made mine hot with corn, potatoes, and sausage. It was almost too much food - but everything tasted amazing. Once you're seated, you'll go to the counter to put in your order, and they'll bring the boil to you. They'll supply the bib, gloves, and crab shucking tool. Those unfamiliar with this cuisine should just be prepared to spend a decent amount of time cracking open crab or removing shells from your shrimp. Not the best if you have very small children - but very tasty and useful for getting kids to like seafood. The ambiance is reminiscent of a port side restaurant in the bayou, warm and welcoming. I'll admit that I didn't try any drinks on this occasion but they do have a full bar. I'll be back for those Snow Crab legs. I'm salivating just thinking about it. read more

Anytime you can get Cajun type Crab/lobster/shrimp hot pot in a volcano looking sauce - take it. I suggest you get that with sides you prefer like corn or potato. There is absolutely nothing wrong with Low country and I would recommend it. I do however prefer the sauce and the sausage at Angry Crab. I grant you the decor, the atmosphere here with the TVs, Fire Place and Bar right dead center makes this place more inviting than any of its competitors. And it's basically in Wrigleyville. So come. I'm back 052519 - this place was lit maybe because the NBA conference finals was on. we had the $100 meal for 4. A very good value highly recommend. It comes with a ton of their amazing corn bread , potatoes and an abundant amount of snow crabs and shrimps and drinks read more

What an amazing adventure I had ordering from Lowcountry in Lakeview. The service was awesome. Placing my order over the phone was pleasant. I wished I knew the person's name that was taking orders, but he was so darn cool and funny. Also, my order was ready when I walked in, and I was given the option to purchase a cracker for $2. I thought that was a reasonable price for such a heavy duty cracker. Also, my food was neatly packaged. My drive home was long, and I was worried that my food would be cold, and tasteless, but it was not. The bags are durable, and it keeps the steam in, and the food warm and fresh. I ordered the combo D- Double Double combo for two persons. This order came with headless shrimp, two clusters of crab legs, potatoes, corn, and jalapeño cornbread for $61. I know, I know...spending that much money on take out during a pandemic is ridiculous. However the food was amazing and the price is justifiable. I ordered my boil with the "everythang" flavor (mixture of all the flavors they have on the menu). My crab legs and shrimp were so juicy and flavorful. The potatoes were nice and tender, and my corn on the cob was overcooked. The jalapeño cornbread was finger licking good. I felt like I was eating inside of the restaurant, and I was happy to make the decision and treat myself to some seafood. I didn't know about the amazing customer service, which was a bonus. Otherwise, I plan to visit this location more frequently for my seafood boil cravings. I don't eat seafood often, but the customer service alone is worth the visit. read more
