    I absolutely love this spot. The food is always fresh, mouthwatering, and perfectly seasoned - the seafood boils never disappoint. The service is attentive from the moment you sit down, you have someone there to help you. The ambience is fun, casual, and perfect for a laid-back night out (especially if you want to watch a football game on a Sunday evening). Definitely one of our go-to places in Rego Park!

    Came back again! No regrets yet again!! Was attended quickly, my waiter was so sweet and the music they were playing was hitting the soul just like the food!! A fave for sure

    I really wanted to enjoy this seafood boil but i didn't. The flavor was lacking and i assume they boil seafood then add the sauce so theres no flavor to the seafood. Aside from that the shrimp were well done so it felt like i was chewing forever. I may go back but i would try something other than the boil. The crab legs were decent but again no flavor which i feel is the point of a boil. The servers were good.

    Love the Cajun sauce and seafood here. It's decently priced for the amount and quality of the food. I would come again if I have seafood craving next time since I love the flavor. Price is decent for a seafood place. The waiters were attentive. It's a nice place to grab dinner and watch a game with your date/buddy/family. The environment is not loud so, you can have a nice chat about the food and life while peeling your shrimp/crab.

    In my opinion, this is the best seafood place in the neighborhood. They offer every kind of seafood - fried, sauteed, or boiled. You can get crawfish, shrimp, calamari, catfish, lobster, oysters, etc. It's only been around a couple of years, so the place still looks very new. There is a bar as well, so you can get any kind of beer or cocktail with your seafood. Best of all, the food here is Cajun style. I am a fan of Cajun food, so the flavors were just right for me. You can tell the waiter to adjust the spiciness accordingly. If you choose the boiled seafood, you can choose the flavor it is cooked in too such as garlic butter, lemon pepper, or spicy garlic butter. The portion sizes of our food were very filling and everything tasted fresh. And make sure you try their cajun fries.

    Reserved a table online an hour before dinner, and we were seated immediately when our party came. Service was outstanding. Food and drinks were delicious.

    So me and my husband order to go two pounds of king crab with the potatoes and corn! It was so delicious! I never been here to eat but we have ordered pick up a few times. They always are friendly on the phone and get our orders correct! They do have a outside dining area as well so one day soon we will come back to sit for dinner! Best crab place I found in Queens!

    Nice Valentine's Day Dinner at Oceanic Boil. The place was very clean and the service was good. The grilled oysters were great! My wife enjoyed her Apple Martini cocktail and we loaded up on Lobster, Crab, Shrimp, and Crawfish. I did wish for more table room, as it can get a bit messy. Loved the double sinks in the back to wash your hands. We enjoyed the food and garlic butter old bay sauce on the seafood. I highly recommend. Spicy of course. 3 lbs of seafood was filling enough for us. They had good music playing and we really enjoyed our time there. If you like seafood boils this place is a must try!

    Cute seafood spot

    Great space with plenty of room. The location is accessible and theres plenty of metered parking. The music was at a decent volume and the drinks were a hit. Had the oceanic boil with the oceanic sauce, and it did not disappoint. Our waiter was Ardy and was absolutely amazing! He took his time going over the menu with us and giving us recommendations. This is surely a feel good space. Will be back!

    My second time eating from this seafood boil. I've been wanting to check it out as I've had takeout from here before. Of course, it is better dining in vs. eating it outside. I've tried other boil places in Queens and haven't really found one that I really like, except this one, which is on top of my list. The service is great, the bathroom is clean, there are sinks outside , which is even better, and the boil is great! There is a bar with tvs just in case you needed to know this information. Also, the boil is large enough to eat with another person. I got the combination headless shrimp with two crabs, and that was good, along with garlic noodles. I recommend this one it you like crab. The seasoning was great, too. It wasn't bland, that's for sure. All in all, I'll be returning to try a different type of boil.

    I can here with friends because it is in my town and I have always wanted to try. I love their New Orleans fleur de lys theme. There are many options to choose from for the boils and they have great pricing. We started with the oysters, I didn't love them. They didn't taste fresh. My husband and I got the snow crab and crawfish boil. We did thoroughly enjoy it, but felt that we have had better. It came with potatoes and corn our friends got snow crab and crawfish. They love coming here and enjoyed their meal. I wouldn't come running back, but I did like the atmosphere and the service. I am happy I tried the restaurant.

    Pina Colada
    Chris P.

    I decided to come here on a whim rainy weeknight after work. I heard mixed reviews about this place. When I arrived I was immediately seated and the servers were very eager to take my order. I ordered the virgin Pina colada which was very refreshing and since I wanted something small I went with the soft shell crab with fries combo which was located in their list of appetizers. The menu stated there were three pieces but I definitely had more than that so the order alone was a meal in itself for me. Food service was a bit slow but it was worth it as everything was fresh. I'd definitely return to try the boil and other cocktails.

Then we had the spicy tuna and blue crab rice sushi bowls and two Maki rolls the Futo Maki and the scallop. And we had the banana foster pudding and Keylime pie. Everything was delicious and I would recommend to get all of these dishes. The service was great. I did feel at some point that we were being rushed out a little bit even though the restaurant had plenty of empty tables. We went on a Tuesday at 6pm and it never got too loud or too busy. I would recommend going then especially if you don't have a reservation you can still find a table. They have a happy hour until 7pm which is two dollars off cocktails and there's some discount on the left side of the menu but nothing huge. The only negative would be that it's pretty pricey in my opinion.

Also, you can get literally any of the sushi rolls and they are just so good!! Pictured is the kizami roll which is my fav but they also have the Nola roll that has crawfish. Super interesting combos and always so tasty. This miso Caesar is delicious as well. Small and cozy restaurant with super friendly owner and staff. They make you feel right at home. Highly recommended go to spot in the neighborhood.

The oysters were incredible!! I'm not a huge fan of po-boys, but the bread was soft and it didn't have too much mayo, which is what I prefer. I added hot sauce provided on the counter. The staff was friendly and they even threw in a coffee & chicory panna cotta for us to taste, which was delicious. I would definitely come back for the oysters and to try either the gumbo or the crawfish etouffee. Would be back a lot more often if they had a special drink happy hour considering the food is a bit pricey.

Original Hurricane was perfection, had to have another. Not a boozy taste but it does catch up with you. I was a little disappointed with the catfish because I was expecting that Nawlins flavor and it was just fried catfish, meh. The cup of gumbo and the spoonful of rice (not complaining about that, it was enough) is where all of the flavor is! The chicken, the andouille and the roux, brought back so many good memories of good food while in the French Quarter. They did that, I should have gotten a larger portion! Our waiter John was very nice and checked in on us regularly, didn't have to lock for him or try to get his attention. Again the place is small but he was very attentive. I would go back just to try other things and hopefully I will get more of that flavor.
