    Boil bag

    Wow! So good!! Had the one lb boil bag and it was delicious! I added corn and potatoes. It was like New Orleans all over again.

    Oysters

    I really wanted to like this place but the oysters were not fresh at all. Looks like they used ice to try to hide the grayness of the oysters and it had a funky taste. We got the crawfish boil and the sauce was good but the crawfish tasted tuff. It's also just crawfish in the boil, it does not come with any potato's or sausages.

    Party like a rock, party like a shrimp rockstar! Located near UCR, this eatery offers a fun experience to grubbing on tasty crustaceans. Dine in or take out, order the shrimp (1lbs) bags, put on your bib, lay out the table mat, and get ready to get your hands buttery and messy. Fun Cajun flavor and simple friendly service make this a good stop for food in Riverside. Try the Cajun sausage and rice too. Parking out front.

    Was craving seafood boil so I came here with my friends! It wasn't too busy for dinner on a weekday. The service was excellent and the food was good, but it wasn't the best seafood boil I've ever had. However, the seafood boil flavor was good and the cajun fries were huge. Their medium spice wasn't too spicy, so if you are a spice lover you should go spicier. I thought that the corn and potatoes were okay, but nothing special.

    Pros: good friendly service, good flavor on the "Kick Me" medium spicy sauce, crispy chicken wings Cons: Bland Garlic butter sauce, no flavor on the chicken wings or choice of flavors First time here and I'd come back. Since we're in the Covid Era, I ordered it to go. 1lb garlic butter shrimp ($12 per lb)1 order red potatoes ($1.75) 3 corn ($.85 each), 1lb shrimp ($12 per lb) Kick Me sauce, 1 order red potatoes ($1.75) 3 corn ($.85 each), 2 orders chicken wings (6 for $6.5), and a side of fries ( big enough for sharing). Only one hiccup was that while driving home, I think some of the shrimp continued to cook by the time I got home about 10 min later. So, some of the shrimp turned out mushy. I'm sure if the shrimp was eaten fresh it would have made a difference. Personally for me, the garlic butter sauce needed MORE GARLIC and a bit more salt. The shrimp tended to have a different aftertaste also, so I'm not sure if that's from the drive home. The medium level spice Kick Me sauce had the buttery, Cajun-y spice flavor and I would personally stick with this or upgrade 1 level hotter to the "Holy Moly". Chicken wings were nice & crispy outside and moist inside, but seasoning nowhere to be found. Instead, there is just ranch sauce for dipping. Fries were crispy on the outside and semi soft inside. Oddly enough I didn't see fries on the menu. The parking lot is shared with other businesses, and the place is cozy. Also, Rockstar Shrimp is open for DINE-IN business! If you're doing a take away order they have to-go table coverings for convenience! Come and check them out here!

    Straight fire!!! The seafood in a bag is delicious. Very messy, but all worth it. GREAT flavors to satisfy any appetite. I can never finish the bag as I always order too much but I warm it up on the stove the next day and it taste just as great!

    My girls n the delicious food.

Well it's near a university, so it's supposed to be fairly affordable, but it's not. $7 or $8 per taco? Get real. Yes you read it correctly, that's for each taco. Sure they were good but it's hard to mess up a taco. The mixed drinks were good and dainty, small glasses, small portions but good. I tried one and it was served in a tall slim glass filled with ice from the bottom to the top. Let's talk about the food, they have appetizers and 2 main plates. I had a chicken chorizo sandwich. It was ground chicken and chorizo formed into a patty between two soft Chinese soft pancake buns type buns with onions and fingerling potatoes. "WHAT?" I know I know. I had to try it. I had to try it but removed the potatoes and ate them by themselves. My wife had tacos. Since it's next to a university, most of there customers were between 21 and 27. Other than another person sitting at the bar, they were only three people older than 40 at this place and that's including us. So if you're looking for a place to go out for dinner, this is not it even if you're a university student this is not the place for dinner if you're looking for a pitstop to grab a drink or a taco maybe this place. But if you're looking for Tacos, there's a taco stand right before this place that seems to be very popular.

The tacos on the menu for the special was a carne asada taco, a shrimp taco, and a chicken taco. These tacos are on a rotating basis every week. The carne asada was more like shredded beef. Both that one and the chicken taco were good but nothing special. The shrimp one on the hand!!! Now that is one i'd write home about. it came with four shrimp pieces , and the taco shell was fried and perfectly crunchy. I would come back for that one any day! The service for us was interesting. Service was super nice but we weren't helped for a while. i think our seating placement might have been right in the middle of both the servers' territory so there might have been confusion on who was suppose to help us? We were literally in the very center of the half booths lol. Eventually the male server came by and apologied for the wait and was very very attentive to us for the remainder of the time:) alsooooo the taco at The State Redlands are slightly bigger than these so i beleive the Redlands ones are more filling.
