Fried oysters
Vivian A.

Flew into LAX and mentioned to my Pops that I was craving dungeness crab. He said "Let's go get some!" and told him "Say less". I saved this spot as it (no lie) came up when I asked chatgpt what was the best place in the LA area to get whole dungeness crab so I already had it saved as a back up. We arrived a little after they opened on a Thursday. There was another couple but we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. What we swallowed: *WHOLE DUNGENESS CRAB WITH CORN AND GARLIC NOODLES side: This was spot on. We ordered the mix seasoning (cajun and lemon pepper), mild with added corn. The sauce was sticky and gooey. I took the meat out of the crab and topped the crab meat with the sauce. It was SOOOO good. The garlic noodles were good, more garlic then flavor but it was still good. Topped that with the crab sauce too, lol. *FRIED OYSTERS WITH FRIES: The oysters were hot and tasty. They didn't have a weird after taste like some oysters do. Topped these with the crab sauce too. lol We really enjoyed our time here. There is parking in the back and code for the bathroom. The server was really attentive and made sure our experience was great. I'd definitely come back when I'm in town!

Shirts I printed with the old manager.

Unfortunately, I can't review the food today because the way I was treated by the new manager made me decide not to stay. I work under contract at a nearby medical facility and have enjoyed coming here for a bucket of crab during my lunch breaks. I've also completed work for this business in the past, so supporting them always felt especially meaningful--they trusted me with their work, and I was happy to return that support as a customer. Today, however, I wasn't greeted or made to feel welcome. Nearly everything the manager said--and, just as importantly, the way he said it--gave me the clear impression that he did not want me there. The interaction felt dismissive, uncomfortable, and very different from the hospitality I had experienced in the past. I can't speak to what was in his heart or what motivated his behavior, but I know how I was made to feel. Sometimes exclusion isn't communicated through an explicit statement; it comes through a person's tone, body language, and unwillingness to extend basic courtesy. I left without ordering and will spend my money somewhere I'm treated with respect. I hope the owners read this and take a serious look at how customers are being received under the new management.

I stopped by here on a whim while in the area for a quick lunch and was not disappointed! Usually a crab boil is kind of pricey and comes as a large portion, so I was very excited to take advantage of their lunch special seafood boil. I got crab and crawfish with the garlic noodles and was very impressed with the flavors. I must say the presentation was a bit lacking as they just brought a plastic bag with food in it to the table, but that did nothing to take away from the taste. I think they're known for their all you can eat specials, which seems to be a awfully good deal! Dining area has floor to ceiling windows facing the street to let in plenty of light. A good lunch was had here and I would not hesitate to return when next in the area.

Crawfish and head on shrimp

Absolutely delicious. My go to spot for a seafood boil. And the service is always great!

All you can eat

My wife and I have been crazy about anything Cajun. This place is at the heart of Korea town. Honestly, with the all you can eat option, and based on what things are inside, this is a deal. We went wayyy too crazy on this. But my wife and I keep coming back. The spices, the food, the gloves, it's all an experience. You've got to try it.

Seafood boil
Karen P.

If you're looking for an affordable AYCE seafood boil in Central LA, this is your best bet! For $38.99 per person, you can have unlimited shrimp, mussel, crawfish, and clams with your choice of Louisiana or lemon pepper seasoning (and you can change the spice too). On a Tuesday at 6:30pm, it wasn't too busy but seemed to get busier during our meal. Staff is attentive and come by often to refill your waters, ask if you want another round, or if you need new gloves. There is a parking structure too! When I came in July 2025, the only 1 lane access in AND out was along 6th Avenue. The exit on Virgil was closed, for some reason, which meant sometimes you had to allow the cars to get out before you can get in.

Their all you can eat is spectacular and the service is great! Also the location is very central The beer is also decently priced! Definitely need to come back

AYCE
Chloe L.

The staff were extremely friendly and attentive throughout our meal. The food was delicious, and we were very satisfied overall. We visited with my little one and the restaurant was clean and family-friendly. They also had non-spicy menu options that were great for kids, which we really appreciated.

I wasn't sure what to expect at first, especially since they don't have a liquor license. I'll be honest--I had a moment of "I don't know about this." But the second the food hit the table, all of that went out the window. The seafood was fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor, but the real surprise was the garlic noodles. As soon as those came out, I was hooked. Rich, garlicky, and absolutely addictive. One of those dishes you keep thinking about after you leave. Service was friendly, the vibe was casual, and the food more than made up for not being able to grab a drink. If you're on the fence, go for the food alone--it's worth it. I'll 100% be back.

AYCE Seafood boil (cajun mild with shrimp, crawfish, clams, mussels, corn, and potato) Garlic noodles, and fried calamari!
Danielle K.

THIS PLACE IS SO UNDERRATED. I went yesterday with my boyfriend for my birthday after a long day at Universal and we were supposed to go someplace else but somehow ended up here. We saw the reviews about a rude server and were hesitant at first BUT we gave it a try and IT WAS THE BEST DECISION EVER! We got refills of the shrimp and crawfish and corn and went to town with it! We enjoyed the food so much we forgot to take a picture. The service was amazing! The server was very attentive and constantly asked us for anything we needed plus gave us new gloves and water refills before we asked for it! The ambiance is nice and most importantly the seafood is SO FRESH AND DELICIOUS IVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT ALL DAY TODAY AT WORK! Highly recommend!!

The "fish and chips"

The fish and chips are not fresh. Everything i ordered tastes like it's been microwaved. Nothing has flavor. The coleslaw was decent but that's it.

Price increased within the last month from $34.99 to $38.99 for their all-you-can-eat combo. The AYCE (All You Can Eat) option includes unlimited servings of shrimp, clams, mussels, crawfish, corn, and potatoes. It also comes with a plate of garlic noodles and a "daily basket"--which, during my last two visits, consisted of fried chicken tenders served over a bed of French fries. When you order AYCE, you're also eligible for 50% off their crabs. You can choose your preferred spice level, but keep in mind that everyone in your party shares the seafood tray--so only one spice level is allowed per group. You also have the option to select the sauce from Louisiana, lemon pepper, or a mix of both flavors for an extra $1 per person. Honestly, I highly recommend going with the mixed--it's worth it. This has become my go-to spot whenever I'm craving a seafood boil. It's a solid deal for the price, though the seafood isn't the freshest--you can definitely tell when peeling the shrimp, but not horrible. They start you off with a tray containing a bit of everything, and you can request less of any item if you'd like. As you order more, they'll bring out a pot of freshly cooked seafood and pour it directly into your tray to keep all that sauce flavor intact. On my last visit, they added extra garlic and lemon pepper--it was absolutely AMAZING. The staff is attentive too, always checking in to offer fresh gloves or a new bin for shells, and they consistently come by when the seafood starts running low in our tray to see if we want to order more. Will be back for more!

When you walk in you wait in line and if you're ordering fish, you can pick out which one you want. After they write up your order, you pay and then they will call your number when it's ready! We normally order the tilapia fish, Camarones enchipotlados, the shrimp tempura plate, garlic bread and steamed rice. There hasn't been one time where I left hungry! They give you good portions and everything is so tasty. The fish is cooked to perfection, the shrimp and the chipotle sauce is to die for and the tempura shrimp are so yummy! Overall, this is a place where you could come over and over again and never get tired of it! If you're looking for great seafood in the LA area, definitely checkout Alaska Seafood, they will not disappoint!

It's been a bit over 3 years... and I'm still obsessed with this place! It's been a while since…read morewe've dined here (we actually visited last June for our anniversary dinner lol). Honestly, I need to come here more than once a year. Every time we've visited, the food has always hit. I always leave the restaurant stuffed and satisfied. We had a great time at our most recent dinner. We celebrated our friend's birthday and they made our dinner really special for us. They gave the birthday boy a bedazzled crab house t-shirt, gave us 2 plates of braised salmon on the house and even an extra uni small sized uni bowl. As you can see in my pictures, our table was FULL of food. Service has actually gotten much better than our past few visits. No more pesky, valet guys and they have plenty of parking. I've been tempted to try the other raw marinated crab restaurants but we honestly love this place. Thank you for a great time crab house!

Overall (8.5/10) Pretty good spot for marinated raw crab…read more The crab was fresh and not fishy at all, the workers were phenomenally nice, and the overall experience was really enjoyable. First Impressions (8/10) Very cozy and authentic Korean restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. It was surprisingly not very busy when we went, which made the experience even better. What We Got (8/10) * Soy marinated crab: Very fresh and melts right onto the rice. The sauce is on the sweeter side, almost like a Coca Cola flavor. * Spicy marinated crab: Good flavor but only has a very mild amount of spice. * Panchan: Really good fermented kimchi, rice cake, japchae, and sesame dressed coleslaw. * Each crab dish came with rice and they also serve tea for free. We even got a slice of salmon, which definitely hit the craving. Taste and Quality (7.5/10) The crab was the highlight. No fishy taste and the texture was really soft and rich over the rice. The soy sauce was a little sweeter than I expected, while the spicy sauce could use more heat. Service (10/10) The workers were phenomenally nice and very welcoming. Easily one of the best parts of the experience. Space and Atmosphere (9/10) Really cozy and authentic feeling. The music was mostly BTS, with some BLACKPINK mixed in, which fit the vibe. Apparently Lisa has also visited here. Was It Worth It (7/10) Pretty good for the price, especially with the rice, panchan, tea, and extra salmon. There were also a lot of crab pieces, so you definitely get a decent amount. Final Thoughts A solid spot if you are craving Korean marinated crab. I would come back, especially for the spicy crab and the really nice service.

The guy taking orders is rude and a jerk, and does not how long an order takes. Told 5 minutes and had to wait 20z Second, the lady at the window, because they don't serve you so you pick up your food. At first was nice, but the more things I had to ask, the worse she got. Third, the food is just not that good. Not understanding what people are thinking but it was not good at all. Papas taquitos were one seasoned and not good at all. Cameron's dorado were more potato tacos, no seasoning, not fried enough, and just not good. The Pescado aguachili was basically inediblez. Way too spicy. Was told it was spicy, but this was ridiculous. After one bite my taste buds were toast and I could not eat any longer. Glad it was the last thing I tried. For me, will definitely NOT be a return customer.

Cousins Francisco Aguilar and Alexis Chacon relocated from Oaxaca to open this mobile mariscos operation. But Simon's seafood-forward menu is innovative and sophisticated, seemingly more at home in a sit-downery than a mobile food cart. Unsurprisingly, Simon has been lauded by news outlets and food critics abound. I've been dying to try Simon, but the limited and often unpredictable hours have kept me from it for months. My partner and I visited for a late weekend lunch and ordered immediately. We opted for 2 tacos (the Soft Shelled Crab and the Baja-style Fish) and a Large Aguachile Negro, and our made-to-order meal was prepared within a few minutes. Between the tacos, the crab was a clear winner. The crispy, whole crab was well-complemented by the fresh pineapple salsa and the rich chipotle crema. In stark contrast, the Baja-style fried fish was one-dimensional in flavor and ran on the soggy side, owing to the watery pickled cabbage slaw. But not even the crab taco could compete with the stellar aguachile. We couldn't get enough of the marinade's rich blend of acidity and smokiness, which overshadowed even the generous helping of fresh shrimp. Simon's complimentary salsa lineup also exceeded expectations. We most enjoyed the earthy salsa macha and the smooth, creamy salsa verde, but the tangy salsa Simon -- the truck's take on taco sauce -- was no slouch, either. Our bill totaled just over $30, and the meal felt reasonably priced and appropriately filling. While the tacos didn't knock my socks off, the aguachile certainly did -- I can't wait to return to try some of Simon's other varieties.

This puts to shame the heirloom tomato salad at San Laurel in the nearby Conrad hotel. I'm usually reluctant to order a steak at a seafood restaurant, but I have been recently disappointed several times at steakhouses and gave it a try here. The filet mignon was very good.
