The good was great I'll recommend it to everyone. Will always visit. The staff was pleasant.

Great spot for seafood. This place have been around for quite some time, so you know it's legit. read more

The place is laid back and the food is very good. It takes sometime to come out but it comes out hot and cooked perfectly. The salmon was very good. It had a nice crust on top and was soft when chewing. It tasted very good. The shrimp in a bag was also very good. The sauce it came in was mild bit had goid heat and very flavourful. I appreciated that the shrimp was not overcooked or bitter. It was sweet and fresh. Staff was nice but they could be a little more attentive and check in a little more. The place smells good and the tables are simple. Definitely use the gloves and apron. read more

I quite enjoyed my meal here. I was craving crab legs and this was one that popped up in Queens. They have a crab and shrimp combo for $55. The crab meat comes out so effortlessly. I got it in the flavor garlic butter with old bay. There were about 2 crab clusters and so many shrimp. I was able to get the shrimp headless but I also with the skin was removed. It was annoying having to peel it off for every piece. In addition to the seafood, it came with a corn piece and some potatoes but I also added garlic noodles. The meal was delicious overall and tasty. I got regular cocktails- a cosmo and passion fruit margarita. The cosmo was a decent size and boozy. In the end, we were offered complimentary shots and decided on tequila. I was very satisfied with my meal and cant wait to come back and use the %10 off discount. read more

Oceanic Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

I traditionally have lobster on my birthday but also craved a seafood boil. My family and I stopped in last week to celebrate, we made a reservation but it honestly wasn't needed. We sat quickly and there were still seats available. My mom and I each had frozen daiquiris and boyfriend had a Sapporo. Service was OK but the food really delivered. I had 1 lb snow crab and 1 lb crawfish. My mom and boyfriend had lobsters. They estimated the size to be 1.5 lbs. I had mine mild with seasoning, theirs was mild. I had a lot of crawfish. The food was not overcooked. They shared some of the lobster with me. It was delicious and meaty. The waitresses were super kind and friendly to my toddler. He tries to befriend everyone he meets. The meal and drinks were about $200 with tip! read more

Oceanic Boil - Lobster Roll - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Jackson Heights, New York

Ordered takeout here on a Friday night through their website. The staff was very helpful when I called asking if they accepted credit card (they do) when ordering through their website (as the option online was just cash). I was surprised to see how empty the place was for dine-in but that just made my takeout order available faster. Would come back for dine-in, the store was dimly lit with warm reddish orange light and it looked like the perfect ambiance for a nice boil dinner with parties of 4. For takeout experience, the boils were contained in big and clear plastic bags, held securely with the aluminum foil container bases. It was securely packed so that the sauces didn't drip. I ordered the combo of lobster/shrimp with a mild oceanic boil sauce, 1 lb of shrimp with garlic butter, onion rings, and fries. The boil came with corn and potatoes. The onion rings came with a small container of bbq sauce. The fries came with spicy mayo. In comparison of the sauces, the oceanic boil sauce was flavorful compared to the garlic butter. The garlic butter is aromatic but lacked the flavor punches you get from the oceanic boil sauce. Highly recommend the oceanic boil sauce if you're looking for a signature sauce experience. read more

I come here so often, bring new groups of friends & post about them on social media that 1) I should be sponsored and/or 2) get free meals here. I wanted to order the cajun gumbo last night but after seeing a review of someone saying it was bland, I didn't want to try it anymore. Anyways if you see this owner, feel free to reach out to me with your thoughts! read more

Came here without a reservation and got seated after a 45 min wait. Wish that the water wasn't served in a red solo cup for the price we're paying. Food was really good though. We got a combo and an additional 2 pounds of crab legs in their signature sauce. Soooo good, especially when you dip the potatoes in the extra sauce. Also got a side of Mac and cheese & garlic bread. Garlic bread was delicious and paired well with the seafood. Outside of the gloves being too big for our hands, everything was great and fresh. Would come again! read more

Great way to start the New Year off right .This restaurant is very casual with the seating and they accept Apple Pay and Google pay .They've got a decently priced drink menu (recommended) as well as a lot of delicious appetizers to choose from (like seriously why was the Mac and cheese so good ?!?!) .The service is nice they seat you down give you the paper plate and cup makes sense to have paper and plastic items because that seafood boil sauce will stain as well as gloves and a bib .Me and my partner also had tried the fried calamari as well as just the crab legs combo boil with shrimp that we split (he's not into seafood boils but we share one ) .Just keep in mind the seasoning is a bit salty so next time I'd get the sauce on the side instead of in the boil bag . read more

The garlic noodles here are SO good - I would order it on its own AND they're good when reheated too. The weekly special was grilled mussels with the seafood boil sauce and it was def worth grabbing for the table. The crab legs are good here, not rubbery! The flavors for the seafood boil aren't that spicy and could use more depth but it's a good spot if you're having a seafood boil craving. They also provide bibs and gloves if you don't want to eat directly with your hands. read more

Ate here today for dinner after work as a substitute paraprofessional at P.S. 398 Q. I had ordered both the lobster roll and 8 pieces of raw oysters that it tasted really good and delicious. The service there was also attentive, quite good, fast and pleasant. I couldn't agree more. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :) read more

Came here on a Sunday Afternoon, Ambiance is very relaxed and chill, Good atmosphere and decent customer service. I ordered the Lobster and shrimp boil combo. The lobster was okay 7.5/10, however the shrimp was not clean or deveined. Every bite of shrimp had an intestinal lining track. Onion rings were okay, the boiled potatoes were way too big! Damn near cut in half instead of 1/4 size pieces which are easier to cut. Overall this establishment can do way better to become a number.1 contender seafood restaurant in the area. read more

GOT FOOD POISONING! When I went here years ago, it was delicious and amazing and was craving mussels so came here last night. Food was delicious, service was great. ..but an hour later when I got home, my head was in the toilet. Not sure if their kitchen was really hot and the mussels weren't stored properly and got bad from the heat (was 96 outside) but it ended up all in the toilet . read more

Omg I haven't ate from this location in years, it's Mother's Day so decided to order through Uber Eats but couldn't find the Rego Park location, so had no choice but to order from Jackson Heights. My shrimp boil was terrible, very salty, I couldn't even finish it, they barely put any sauce in the bag and the sauce was watery. They fell off big time. Will stick to Rego Park location. read more

We ordered... Fried Calamari 1 lb. Shrimp (sauce: Garlic Butter + Lemon Pepper) 1 lb. Shrimp (sauce: Oceanic Boil) French Fries (not pictured) White Rice Great place for seafood!! Food was served hot, fresh and full of flavor. But...get ready for a big mess! We ordered their shrimp, which you can get head on or off. It was very tasty and filling! The calamari was nicely seasoned and also came with Cajun fries. Their fries are also so crunchy. While it can get a bit messy, put on your bib and gloves and dig in read more

The best I've had in NYC area! Got a pound of crawfish with their oceanic boil sauce and the spicy level isnt too intense. The crawfish were big and meaty, and they threw in potato and corn into it too! Note that it's $19 a pound which is at least $5 more than what you get in the west coast or Texas. Delicious fries too. We did their promo of the week which was 6 oysters + fries for $15. read more

Ambiance and food were amazing! The service was top-notch definitely recommend the garlic noodles, everything went great!

Haven't had seafood boil in a while, but this place made it easy to introduce myself back to it again. We got the Oceanic Boil ($107) to try a bit of everything, and we killed it among our group of 3. There were different spice levels, and you can also choose your own sauce. We were going to pick, but they recommended the Ocean Boil sauce, which was said to be a mix of everything. Perfect! The seafood itself was already made to be easy to crack, but they were kind to offer extra snappers if we needed. Their seafood wasn't the freshest and maybe that's normal, but the buttery sauce makes up for it. Worth the occasional splurge, and the drinks were of great value, and tasted delicious too! read more

If you love seafood, you have to check this place out. Food is undeniably fresh, staff is attentive and friendly, and the vibe here is immaculate (we were literally jamming to the alt rock playlist they played the entire time we were there lol). We ordered: * The Oceanic Boil Combo: 1 Lb. Shrimp (Head On), 1 Lb. Crawfish, 1lb Snow Crab Leg, Whole Lobster (+$1 For Headless Shrimp) ($102.00) * Garlic Noodles ($7.00) * Sausages ($5.00) * 2 sodas ($3.00 each) * Coffee Flan ($5.00) total with tax and tip came out to ~$150ish. As for the food, we ordered our boil mild with garlic butter and lemon pepper. It smelled and tasted amazing -- it was garlicky, savory, with a little tartness from the lemon to cut the butter, and had the mildest heat at the end. It was perfect. The Oceanic Boil is a generous amount of food (and it comes with potatoes and corn). The garlic noodles were perfect sharing size -- dunk it in the boil sauce or inside the lobster head, it'll sop up all that umami goodness. The sausages were tasty and had a nice heat in them. You're provided with all the tools you need to crack open your crab legs and lobster and your table has a trash bucket to discard your shells which staff replaces periodically. I'd recommend using the gloves and bib/apron they lay out because it gets very messy. Staff was incredibly nice and sang happy birthday to my boyfriend with a coffee flan (which was something neither of us had tried before but it was SO good!!). We absolutely love this place and can't wait to return. read more

My friends and I visited Oceanic Boil on a Thursday night. We were quickly seated and the service was rather fast. We ordered a variation of seafood, that came extremely fresh and was served piping hot. The sauce was extremely well seasoned and everything was delicious. The seafood did feel a bit overcooked since it was a bit tougher to chew but really good nonetheless. I really enjoy dipping my rice into the sauce and eating it that way. We also made it just in time for Happy hour, and the drinks that came with it, had just the right amount of liquor and was also really good especially coming from someone who typically does not enjoy alcoholic drinks. They were strong but still sweet. We did have a harder time ordering with our server due to a language barrier, but that's just something to note if you come here Overall we had a good experience TLDR; good food, decent service, overall recommended read more

Not a big deal. Pay good money and go to a real seafood spot. The environment is pretty decent I like it. Not a fan of the food. Service is quick. read more

I got 2 orders crab legs and shrimps, garlic bread, and flan for dessert. Delicious doesn't even begin to describe the taste of the food. I had fun watching me friend trying to eat the shrimps with the heads on, lol! Spicy, garlicky and oh so yummy! Can't wait to some of the other items on the menu. read more

This place is great! So many good things to say about this spot: 1) the staff is very friendly 2) the music and ambiance is great 3) the seafood is fresh 4) the place is clean and everything you need is provided We ordered the spicy 1 pound of shrimp. It is not very spicy in comparison to other places, adn the sauce was very buttery. It definitely was different than the spots I have had before, but very enjoyable! read more

Are you a vegetarian who's tired of ordering salad every time the friend group wants a meat-focused communal dining experience because it's the only non-meat option on the menu? Do you love carbs...but also seasoning? Do you like having your pick of cheap fruity little drinks? Look no further than Oceanic Boil! I'll admit, I thought this was gonna be a "sad kid's meal" type of evening, but between the starters, apps, and drinks, I left Oceanic Boil completely stuffed. The garlic bread was probably my favorite item on the menu. Remember the garlic bread your mom used to make for you at home as a kid with white bread, butter and garlic powder? Picture that but elevated with tons of butter and real garlic. The french fries came out piping hot and were crispy on the outside, but soft and pillowy on the inside. The seasoning on the fries was simple but tasty, I think so the dipping sauce stayed the star of the show and didn't get too salty. Garlic noodles were incredibly creamy and saucy even after they'd been sitting out for a while, with a strong garlic flavor and well cooked noodles. Mac and cheese also came out very hot, gooey, and saucy. It's a mark of good mac and cheese when it doesn't congeal so quickly, but rather this dish stayed creamy for a long time. Definitely had multiple types of cheese in it too, which is a great technique to get good flavor and texture. The Mai Tai was slightly coconut-y with a sweet fruity taste. You could taste the alcohol, but not so much that it tasted bad. Whatever sweet/fruit flavors were used, they were also not so artificial that the drink was sickly sweet or tasted like cough syrup. That shouldn't seem like a high bar to meet but sometimes (especially for a $9 drink) it is! My partner got a virgin piña colada and also thought it was tasty! The staff also provided fast and friendly customer service, bringing the food out quickly and checking in regularly to see how the meal was or if we needed anything else. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, and bibs and gloves were provided so no one eating seafood made a mess of themselves. Definitely check this place out when you're in Jackson Heights! read more

I came here recently on a date, and it was so good. I walked in to discover no wait for a line. There was outdoor seating, but at 96 degrees, I saw no one outside enjoying this set up. I found the service was attentive. I walked in with hubby, and I said that I wanted the fried shrimp basket. It came with a gigantic portion of fries (no complaints there!). He ordered the lobster roll. There's evidence of all that we ate. I recommend you to check out the photographs below. I also decided to add to my tummy's list of things to savor and acquire a plate of raw oysters which I did enjoy greatly. It was super good. I heard there's happy hour here and $1 oysters. Not sure if this is current info, and if so, I am not sure the times, but it may exist. I enjoyed my time here. Our waitress checked in on us often which was really awesome. I felt welcomed and that the food was really tasty. I liked the tartar sauce and the flavor of the honey mustard. I also felt that the sauteed spinach was tasty with oil and had great garlic flavor. I would definitely return! They also have drinks if that's what you are into. read more

Delicious food and messy experience so be prepared. They do set you up with gloves, bibs and lots of napkins. The staff was so accommodating and informative since it was our first time there. We ordered too much food just for two of us but so good. We ordered the boil with the shrimp. The boil does comes with corn and potatoes so don't order extra sides. Very affordable for brunch including drinks for two came to 60. read more

I went here with my bestie and it was soooooo good. We had been craving a seafood boil for maybe three weeks. We ordered the calamari to start, it came out promptly & was okay, no complaints there. The Mac and cheese was very cheesy, but will need some seasoning which is provided at the table. Now for the real stars of the show, the headless shrimp and crawfish! We both got the mild spicy to go with it & it was purrfect. It beyond satisfied my craving & i was able to go home with leftovers. I enjoyed the potatoes and corn the most, they just soak up the flavors so good!!! The restaurant itself was very calm and relaxing, I enjoyed my meal and my date with my bestie. Thank you guys so much & keep up the great work!! read more

Found this place on yelp and decided to eat here for my pre birthday celebration. A friend of mine wanted seafood so here we are. With that being said, this place was on point. The flavors were excellent and the food was great. I had a started of chicken wings and Cajun fries that was very well prepared and seasoned. My main course was snow crabs, and let me tell you, I was floored. The crabs were cooked well and seasoned the just. Each crab had enough meat in it to fill my taste buds. The out door seating was cute and cozy. They had good music playing while we waited for our food. We had alcoholic drinks. Pina colada was good. Definitely recommend this hidden gem. read more

When it comes to dining, even with the lowest of our expectations, there are moments when even those are not met, and we will discuss an example. The restaurant was too dim for lunch service. They had just opened, yet the table was already sticky. The service was nonexistent. The crab legs (1/5) appeared dull and discolored, lacking the vibrant hue that fresh seafood usually have. The shells seemed excessively pliable, a clear sign of extended storage or inadequate handling. Regrettably, the flavor and texture of the old crab legs mirrored their lackluster appearance. The meat had lost its natural sweetness and succulence, giving way to a bland and slightly off-putting taste. The clams casino (3/5) was decent, but the shredded cheese dried out instead of melting. The fries that accompanied the dish was decent as well. The burger(1/5) was absolutely horrendous. The burger buns were dry The burger patty was rubbery and dry. It lacked flavor, and the texture was unappetizing. Never again. read more
