We had their $24.99 boiled deal that came with snow crab ( we asked to replace that with dungeons), eggs, potatoes, corn and sausages. We ordered 4, Cajun and their house special, HOT and one mild. We also got their garlic noodles which was made of fettuccine noodles and say sauce - it was DELICIOUS! Love the food! Service was GOOD Plenty of seating space. Definitely come back read more

They advertise closing at 10:00 PM arrived at 9:04 PM to find out they stop serving at 9:00 PM They should close at 10:00 ....or 9:00...m'I confused or what's going on? Waste my time!! read more

Used to be one of my favorite splurge dinners to have but my boyfriend & I have had 2 times where we went 8:30pm-8:50pm and ended up receiving no service other than being sat down & getting our food. Closing shift staff were only focused on cleaning , we had multiple staff walk by and not one offered any service. Even when we were done we had to wait to at the register to pay because the staff were all sitting in booths not paying attention. Sooooo disappointing.. $95 meal and couldn't even get a refill of water. Don't plan on going back anytime soon but definitely never again at night. read more

The service was good food was excellent server did a amazing job I see a lot of complaints about the bathroom I smell nothing a matter of fact what I seen was lazy customer not putting there paper towels on the floor instead of the 2 garbage cans in the bathroom which I pick up myself and the bathroom look clean. Thank you for serving my family I will visit again Table D 6. Lilli server read more

This review is solely based on the food, I did not go into the restaurant as this was an order placed online. The food arrived still very hot. I ordered the 1/2 shrimp boil with potatoes and corn and one order for the hush puppies. My family and I really enjoyed them and their tartar sauce was very tasty. My shrimp boil was perfectly seasoned, but next time I would get their medium spice level, as the mild was too mild for my preference. I feel the value is great for the amount of food you get. I would definitely order again and try a different flavor combination. read more

Ocean Crab - 1/2 lb shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Lodi, California

Nothing remarkable ... our server was a nice guy but the seafood boils were VERY salty. Almost too salty to eat. We ordered two seafood boils with shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and lobster tail. We also had a deep fried oyster appetizer and that was actually good. The restrooms were horrible and looked like public gas station restrooms. I let our server know that they were in bad condition and someone could get hurt if they slipped on what appeared to be urine on the floors; and he politely said he'd get someone in there. There's only two bathrooms, both gender neutral, yet one had a urinal and the other didn't. Again, he was a nice guy. However, the bathrooms looked like no one regularly cleaned them. They were very dirty and smelled, it wasn't a good look for them... being that they advertised themselves as "NEW Grand Opening". We were only in the area for a volleyball tournament so we aren't local to Lodi. We found this place on Yelp and decided to try based on the positive reviews. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend nor return. Two stars for the oyster appetizer and the friendly service. read more

First time visiting since it opened. The restaurant is nicely decorated in a marine theme. We were greeted and were promptly sat in a booth. We had the hush puppies for appetizers; I recommend them. For the main course l, we ordered the crab and shrimp combo with corn and potatoes. Everything came steaming hot but delicious. They provide you with all the equipment for the job: bib, gloves, seafood cracker and napkins. They have a variety of seasonings (the house one has everything in it). There are also different levels of heat (spice) for everyone's taste. It was a fun dining experience and we definitely left with full stomachs. Thanks to our server Moses who was very attentive and kind. Check it out ! read more

Food was good. Service was great. I would definitely go back. I got a seafood bag with house flavor- medium. Wasn't too spicy, good flavor. I would try hot next time. Cajun fries were good. Calamari was good. Ordered chicken tenders basket but was too full to try it. The only thing I don't like, is they stop sitting people at 9pm. A few days ago I went to dine in for the first time and they said I couldn't after 9pm so I left. read more

Mediocre at best. The food was very bland to Me. It lacked any really favor. I was a bit disappointed. It was also like warm. I also ordered calamari, it was fried so hard into the point it wasn't edible. The waiter was great. He was attentive and sweet. The restaurant was very clean the music was very family friendly. read more

Came here for dinner with my husband and daughter and overall had a really great experience. We ordered "Combo C" with one pound of crab legs and added two pounds of headless shrimp, which also came with corn and potatoes. We also got steamed white rice, hush puppies, and calamari on the side. The restaurant is located in a large strip mall with plenty of parking, and inside has a cute beachy/ocean vibe. The space was very clean and comfortable. The seafood boil came out piping hot and was absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned and full of flavor. The steamed rice was fluffy and paired really well with the seafood, and we enjoyed the hush puppies too. The one thing we didn't care for was the calamari. Unfortunately, it was extremely tough and chewy, which made it hard to eat, so we wouldn't order that again. The wait staff was friendly and on top of things throughout our meal, which we appreciated. Overall, I think this place has the best seafood boil in the area, especially for the price - you get a lot more food here compared to other local seafood boil spots. We'll definitely be back! read more

Amazing food. It was my first time trying this place. My parents brought me and my gf here to try the new seafood spot in town and we loved it. Great customer service and so much parking. The environment was really chill and it is a good size restaurant for the 209 area. We got the Family Special deal, Garlic Noodles, Cajun wings and Hush Puppies. Great place to celebrate any special occasion. Highly recommend this spot! read more

So happy to finally have a crab boil place in Lodi! Went for an early dinner on 4/1. They weren't busy and we were sat quickly. The server was friendly enough and the food and drinks came out quickly. We ordered fried calamari and the family meal. For the seafood boil we chose black mussels, Dungeness crab, clams, and head on shrimp with the house seasoning and hot spice level. The seasoning and spice was perfect and so delicious. The decor in the restaurant is cute and I really love the little jellyfish lamps hanging in the dining room. The food was great but I do wish they had a full liquor license so we could have cocktails with dinner. read more

We drove by and saw that this place was new so we said let's try it, it was the middle of the day on a week day so it was pretty empty, service was fast and great customer service, we ordered shrimp, mussels with corn and eggs , the wings and oysters, the only down side is that they are a little too salty for my liking and that is saying a lot coming from me. It's worth a try but just ask for a little less salt. read more

Went here on a Friday night after seeing reviews on Facebook. It did not disappoint. Just a note to let you know all the crab is previously frozen but this is common on most restaurants serving crab. We love fresh caught crab but need to be really close to ocean to get that. This place is awesome as Lodi needed someplace that served seafood. We shared a bucket with dungeness crab, shrimp, clams, red potatoes and corn. We chose the cajun with hot spice. It was not terribly hot so give it a try. Everything super hot and tasty served in a plastic wrap with a bib and plenty of napkins. Right up there with any other restaurant serving this style seafood. Super busy so we had a half hour wait. read more

Ocean Crab - Decor for Dining Room - Seafood Near Me - Lodi, California

TLDR Highlights: - They don't serve hard liquor - Raw oysters were delicious - Sauce is delicious but not spicy AT ALL ): - My crawfish was cold (so sad) My husband and I visited in on a Friday evening for dinner and drinks. Unfortunately, they only serve beer and wine ): But that's okay. It didn't ruin the vibes as service was quick and friendly. We ordered raw oysters, chicken wings, garlic noodles, and we got the $68 combo + I ordered an extra lb of crawfish with sausage. We asked for the house special sauce extra, extra spicy. It was not spicy at all. It was mild as if we simply ordered the mild - also not an issue because the sauce itself and oysters were good. The wings were mid and the garlic noodles were different but still enjoyable. However.... My bone to pick with the restaurant and as to why I was extremely, extremely disappointed is due to my crawfish order coming out cold! It was odd because my husband's order came out piping hot. It was such a disappointment especially because the total bill was nearly $200. read more

Came here with my husband and it was really good. Service was good and the food was excellent! We sat down and ordered within 10 mins, and got our food within 20 ish. Fresh, has a lot of flavor and even brought some home. The place was clean, lightweight music and not busy. read more

The food is decent, but unfortunately my experience with the customer service has been consistently disappointing. I've been here several times, and almost every visit there has been an issue with my order. I usually order 1lb of shrimp, and every time I receive it, it's different sometimes there's less shrimp or barely any sauce. On one occasion, items were left out of my order, and when I called, I was told I could not receive a refund and would have to come back to pick up the missing items. Another time, after placing and paying for a to-go order, I decided I wanted to dine in with my kids. I asked if I could switch it to dine-in, but instead I was told I had to leave unless I placed a new dine-in order. I was shocked to be turned away and practically kicked out after already purchasing food. In addition, the customer service has been poor. Staff members often seem annoyed when customers ask for basic items, and I've experienced eye-rolling and unprofessional attitudes. The management also does not seem to handle customer concerns effectively. I don't usually leave negative reviews, but after multiple disappointing experiences, I won't be returning. I hope management takes customer service and order accuracy more seriously moving forward. read more

My new favorite seafood spot! Ocean Crab has quickly become one of my go-to places in Lodi. The seafood is always fresh, seasoned perfectly, and comes out hot and fast. The staff is super friendly and welcoming every time I come in. I usually get the shrimp boil with the house special sauce--it's packed with flavor and hits every time. The place has a chill vibe, clean setup, and everything's reasonably priced for how much food you get. Highly recommend stopping by if you're craving seafood. read more

Fast friendly service. Odd place. Confusing menu. Great selection. Looking forward to our return. read more

Of course my husband wanted seafood for Father's Day. I don't really care for it however, after trying OCEAN CRAB, i am a believer and now a fan. The flavor was so fresh and not overbearing. The service could have been a little better. Our waitress only came over to our table twice in an hour and a half. We still tipped her well. She was nice just not very attentive. read more

Tried Ocean Crab for a seafood boil and honestly, it hit the spot. The crab legs were fresh and covered in sauce (in a good way). Super flavorful, a little messy, but that's part of the fun. Definitely come hungry. They just added clam chowder to the menu so I ordered a cup to try it. It's creamy, loaded with clams, and actually pretty good. Not too salty, which I liked. Solid starter before the boil. Service was chill and friendly, and the vibe is laid-back. It's not fancy -- just good seafood, good portions, and a fun place to eat with friends. I'd go back. read more

The place is clean! Friendly welcoming staff. Food tastes fresh and the prices are great!

Glad Lodi has finally gotten its own crab boil spot! It's nice that the bag already comes with a potato and corn as more places charge separately for any add-ons. Got the shrimp with the combo flavors and it was tasty (and thankfully not too oily as that's common with most places). read more

The service is excellence. The food is delicious. The decor is amazing. Location is perfect. The surrounding is safe and clean.

This place is so good! Plus Audrey & Nathalie provided excellent service! Thank you! Yummm!

I walked in and was greeted by the hostess, who is really nice! The waitress that greeted me was very cold. Totally threw me off Initially, I ordered wings and a beer!

Came back again just to see if things were better... blonde hair gal was nice but didn't come back for a refill. Food was good. Couldn't help but to stare at all the details. This place needs a deep cleaning, especially in the bathroom. Everything felt grimey to the touch like it hadn't been properly cleaned. read more

This was taken out of my mouth after taking a bite of my seafood bag. Very very disappointed because the man came to me after I showed our server and explained what the piece of sharp metal was from and said we'll do better. But no genuine apology no discount no extra care nothing. After a $50 dollar bill later. I could have had some real problems if I swallowed that. Server never came to check on us after either. Paid for our food and left. read more

The shrimp is very good. The crab legs are a lot of work for very little meat. The rest is good
