    Didn't disappoint!! Shrimp (Head-off) potatoes, corn, crab and more... We shared between the group and every dish was delicious.

    If you love seafood and cajun seasoning don't pass the opportunity to try out this spot. Clam chowder was good but I've traveled around a bit and spotted. Delicious food and great atmosphere.

    The menu

    The location is great. It's in a busy shopping center near many other restaurants and stores. The parking lot is large and there shouldn't be an issue trying to park. The service was alright. It was nothing special to ride home about. Almost felt like our sever had forgotten about us a couple of times. Perhaps it was because they were very busy for dinner. They had nice music playing in the background. Our meal came out relatively quickly, I'd say within ten minutes. I loved the presentation of the meal, just a plastic bag lol. The real draw here was the food. Man oh man was this tasty. I almost wanted to leave a 3 star review but the flavor of the food is just so good I can't justify anything less than a 4. If there were half stars I'd even say 4.5. It's packed full of flavor but also not overwhelmingly spicy or anything. The corn was so good I think I might have to order just corn next time. I'm a big seafood lover but nothing here tasted extra "fishy" (those who know, know). The mussels were delicious, the crab legs were phenomenal, and the potatoes were cooked just right. I literally started drinking the sauce after I finished my food. The prices are on par for eating out in 2025. I'd say you can walk out of here for around $50 for a meal for two making this a $$$ for me. The service wasn't the best but the food was. I will be coming back. Bottom line/TLDR: AMAZING SEA FOOD

    I just noticed this place recently although they opened in 2021. It is located in the very busy Walmart shopping center next to Applebees. We decided to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary today by coming here for lunch. We were seated right away as they were not busy whatsoever. Our waitress was nice and explained the menu for us after we told her it was our first time. I was really interested in the AYCE because I wanted crab. Unfortunately, the AYCE only includes one serving of crab so we passed on it. There are many choices if you don't want to do that so we both chose Option A ($47.99) which included everything I wanted, Shrimp, crab and lobster with a side of corn and potatoes with a choice of sauce. We chose Cajun mild. It came out in this huge bubble of a bag. You open it and eat with your hands! We dumped ours out on the plate while I saw others just pick out of the bag. Luckily they supply you with a roll of paper towels, gloves and a bib. It is MESSY!! Was thankful for the gloves as I had a cut on my finger and those juices would have been torturous. It was tasty! I liked that it was just enough spicy but not too much or too little. Slightly salty. You got 2 half corn on the cobs and about 4 golf ball sized red potatoes. About a dozen shrimp. One cluster including claw of dungeoness crab. 6 oz lobster tail that was split in half. It was plentiful enough to satisfy my appetite but not too much to be in food coma. I ding a star for a few reasons. I didn't want to barbarian the whole meal so I asked for a fork and a knife. They do not have real silverware! just a plastic fork. No knives. I needed the fork for the whole potato and knife for the corn. I am unable to eat corn on the cob and need to cut it off so ended up giving this to my husband. Next time I will ask for all potatoes. Yes there will be a next time. The other reason is the awful music.... hip hop that was somewhat loud. We definitely rushed to eat to get away from it. It was unnerving. I suppose that is the audience they are targeting? I assumed it was a family friendly restaurant. Anyway, it wasn't enough to deter me from returning. I just might not hurry back. While I thought it was fairly priced for seafood, its expensive. $120 for two. I then saw a sign on the way out near Walmart advertising the Natomas Marketplace QR code for the center and they offer 15% discount for Mr. Crab along with other coupons for some of the businesses in the center. That would be helpful next time.

    Cajun fries

    Food: shrimp was good , cajun fries amazing and also cajun chicken wings is good. I love the special mr crab sauce xtra spicy. The only bad things were, the potato is extremely soggy, their sausage slices very thin!!! Like a pepperoni slices, Service: very nice lady. Ambiance: the restaurant looks very trendy. And cute

    Highly recommended by our waiter !

    It's definitely convenient being located in Natomas. They have a decent selection & our server Mike was very friendly.

    Combo B

    We ordered a soda and the Combo B with added sausage and boiled egg, classic Cajun mild and when I tell you this is the best seafood boil I've ever tried, I mean it! I was a little hesitant at first because someone I know said it wasn't good, but me and my mom decided to give it a try since we were craving a seafood boil. And didn't want to drive 30mins to downtown for boiling crab. We went around 12ish and only waited about 5 minutes. Our food came out hot, juicy, and smelling amazing. That first bite was everything! The seasoning was on point not watered down at all (like boiling crab) and packed with flavor in every bite. I definitely recommend trying this place out. In my opinion, it's even cheaper than Boiling Crab. We'll for sure be coming back soon!

    Walking in the front door.

    First timer here and it did not disappoint. I loved the vibe of the resultant . I felt like I was at Sponge Bob Square Pants house lol. Decided to go for the all you can eat menu. There is a catch to that however. First serving of crab is included another is a change of $18 for 1/2 pound. There was an abundance of food for $42.99 per person! 2 starters . 4 protein, 6-7 sides. UNREAL if you wanted anything like lobster there was an extra charge but the amount of choices you had for protein that came included it wasn't really necessary. No one was able to finish off their bag bc of how huge the portions are . Can't wait to go back ! The staff was hella friendly and attentive. If you go , wear your stretchy pants . You'll thank me later lol ^_*

    On a recent random Saturday early afternoon I found myself with some free time and totally starved…read moresince I skipped breakfast for some reason that day-so I decided it was finally time to try the new local AYCE spot in Natomas that recently opened off Truxel-I headed down to Harumi Sushi and Hibachi. Parking is plentiful here as they are located in the old Hooters building in the multi tenant shopping center with Regal Cinemas and Wal-Mart. So when I arrived there were a few people waiting for a booth but as a solo diner they seated me right away.In my head I thought I was going there just for the lunch menu,but much to my surprise on Saturdays I guess it's all day "Dinner" menu-which kinda bugged me at first but after looking the menu over,I was ok with it because it did open up a few items on the menu which I wanted to try that were not on the lunch menu-so I got the Dinner AYCE($36.99) and a Diet Coke($3.50) Looking over this menu-the first thing that grabbed my attention were the "Dinner-Only" Sushi Appetizers items-so I decided to knock out as many of those as I could.the Seared White Tuna and the Pepper Tuna Tataki were really tasty-probably my 2 favorite of the appetizer menu-flavors really popped-I enjoyed them.Salmon Carpaccio and Yellowtail Jalapeno were items off this menu that also stood out-Salmon just melted when I ate it-really good. Seared Salmon and Pepper Tuna were also my favorite Sashimi pieces-I'm seeing a pattern here-they were just really good. I'm a sucker for some hibachi and they offered here Shrimp-Steak and Chicken.I only ordered the shrimp and it was "chefs kiss" delicious. Once I got to the rolls portion of this menu I went with a baked salmon roll-which is basically served fully cooked and warm-I liked it but I guess I just prefer my salmon raw at sushi spots.I also ordered the Pepper Tuna Roll-which tasted amazing but was so odd bcz it had lettuce mix on top-I have never seen that before-surprisingly it worked though-gave it a fresh taste that I didn't expect.Easily the best roll of the night though was the Salmon Lemon Roll-it was so simple but so good-salmon-avocado over rice with ponzu sauce I think topped with a simple slice of lemon-perfection-it was something I wanted to order again immediately after finishing but here is the thing,they dont mess around here at this place,when you order a roll here,they drop 8 pieces on you-so u got to fully commit when ordering those rolls because it's a hearty serving-just like I love it! Parts of the menu I didn't get to,I noticed they had ramen and poke bowls-they have gyozas and egg rolls-they had a pretty decent looking dessert bar located in the back of the restaurant-but honestly I was too full to partake in any of those other items-the food here can be pretty overwhelming if you want it to be, bring your appetite. In closing-the previous tenants at this location used to be my favorite AYCE spot in Natomas and I was bummed to see them close shop,though the menu is for sure different,some items are new and some are just gone,I did enjoy my meal here and these guys are an incredible replacement for my old fav and I just might have a new favorite AYCE spot in Natomas-give em a try. PS-Yes,I did eat everything in my pictures,not one bit was wasted-a truly good time.

Meal costs have…read moreincreased (obviously due to inflation), while customer service and food quality (sometimes) seems to be an afterthought. However, after my recent experience at Creole Sole, I have a more positive outlook on dining in. When a friend of mine and I arrived, we took a moment to observe the many murals on the walls that pay respect to prominent figures in black culture. An employee working behind the counter warmly greeted us and proceeded to take our orders. I opted for the catfish meal with two sides - fries & red beans and rice. Since my friend and I were busy chatting, I cannot speak to how long it took for our food to arrive. However, when I saw the employee bringing our plates, I knew that we were in for a treat. The catfish was fried to perfection and very flavorful, while the fries and red beans + rice complimented the fish perfectly. My only beef (I'm using this word lightly) is that the portion of fries that I received were fairly small (I can't recall if there was a size option for the sides). I love good food; however, I feel that the vibes of an environment truly influence how much one enjoys their meal. I knew that I was in the right place when we started hearing deep cuts from 90's & early 2000's R&B groups like Next and 112! Since it was during the work week, I did not partake in one of their cocktails. However, when I make a return visit in the near future, I will definitely try the Blacker the Berry Lushie and the Sluuriricane!
