I'm hesitant to give them 3 stars. But the food (crab legs, shrimp quality was great) The inside of each booth is dark, dimly lit, and upon turning on my Phone light, I can see why. The walls are filthy. Mostly from all the spattering of food debris from people eating. The booth seating was a tad harsh, padding is near dead. The TV had foodball game playing. There was one server, she was nice and cordial and helpful with all my questions. I spent $39 and got the boil in a bag crab legs and shrimp with 3 taters and a corn cob. Overall the taste wasn't bad, they do need to back off on the Old Bay, there was a goopy mess of it.in the bottom of the bag. The shell crusher and meat scissors helped, but a pick would have sealed the deal for getting those little morsels of crab meat out of smaller spaces. Food: Good. Service: Great Business interior: needs a deep clean. read more

Serivce was horrible Seafood boil tasted like it was cooked in dirty water spent 147 dollars had to ask for a discount because snow crab still had eggs in it, the boiled egg was BLACK, the mussels had hairs, the potatoes had ROOTS IN THEM. the owner had an almost 13 year old working in the kitchen Owner was extremely rude. We were so excited for the food we were even making a tik tok for this place I do not recommend what so ever. Wish I can rate it a 0-10 read more

This place never disappoints! Prices are fair, food quality is good and the employees there are friendly. Definitely recommend!

We ordered 1lb of Shrimp and 1lb of snow crab with all flavor sauce. It was the worst flavor I have ever tasted. I do not recommend this place. read more

The seafood quality was very poor in size and freshness. We ordered a spicy sauce for our seafood boil and it was not spicy at all. It actually had a sweet taste. We choose the middle seafood combo and we did not receive the portion or true weight of what was listed on the menu. I do not recommend this place at all. read more

I never write reviews, however today I will. Online it said it opened at 12, There was a paper on the door that said it opened at 2. I showed up at 2:30 and doors were locked. 15 mins later the server opened the door. Decided to treat my daughters to seafood bc of their good grades. But this place was not it at all. Nothing was tasty. Sauce was watery without flavor, shrimp was overcooked, rice was hard and undercooked and the chicken tenders tasted freezer burn. One thing I will say was the waitress was so sweet and apologetic. However the manager didn't seem to care. No refund, no partial refund, nothing. I don't recommend this place. I should've stuck to my normal place in Corona called Kickin Crab. read more

Food is not good do not come here for seafood boil absolutely no flavor ! Me and my husband were so disappointed barely ate any food I just ate shrimp because I really hate wasting food but we just left it . We asked for a discount because it was just not good and the lady said she couldn't do that for us because of 1 bad review but yet they have more bad reviews on yelp and they gave someone else a discount on here. I told her that and she started getting loud and saying she can get a microphone and have the restaurant vote I was like ma'am why would you do that lol? I didn't want to argue with her so just said thank you and we left. Food is super expensive for it to be so flavorless and then have that type of attitude god bless you ! 0 stars if I could read more

Some of the worst crab boil I've ever had. Just sauce in a bag, so thin and no chunks of garlic or otherwise goodness. $38 for peeled shrimp, crab cluster, potatoes and corn isn't bad but flavor was awful with overcooked shrimp it wasn't worth it. Inattentive wait staff and disgustingly dirty establishment. Wished we tried star crab just down the street read more

I wish I read the most recent reviews before coming here because the default ones made this place sound amazing. When I arrived, there was a mop bucket of strong cleaning solution left out and the smell filled the restaurant. Previous reviews were accurate on the sauce on shrimps, there were no garlic chunks and was not spicy on the spicy level. The Lemon Pepper Fries did not have enough seasoning, and the ice water was not good. Waitress was friendly however, we didn't realize we accidentally ordered two orders of sausages instead of two pieces. Paid $12 for just sausage. Overall disappointed and spent $60 just to leave with a bad taste. read more

Really only gets a star cus the hospitality from owner was cool but he could tell and hear me talkin shit bout the food shrimp my girl order and garlic noodles over cooked my food over sauces with teriyaki good way over prices might as well go to mastros or Ruth Chris or sumthin they price outrages fountain drink (lemonade) watery as hell left over 75% of food on plates trays and didn't want to go containers not close to being worth it at all top fight trash FIX everything or just give it up food industry isn't for everyone and new cooks cus it's trash read more

ORDER (doordash pick up) all in one sauce (mild) -- crawfish, shrimp, mussels, clams the sauce was so bad.. no garlic just powdered seasoning. flavor was lacking and was not cajun-y. by far, the worst seafood boil i've had. the shrimps were tiny. they provided a ton of lemons and a few salt & pepper containers, but it was literally just a pinch of salt. on a positive note, the crawfish was big. SERVICE we picked up the order around 20 minutes after placing an order on doordash and it was ready by the time we got there. AMBIANCE it wasn't too crowded on a saturday night. read more

The sauce for the boil was so thick and weird tasting. Seafood was over boiled and over priced. Waiter barely said a word to us.

I am glad that there there is an option for boiled seafood in the area! I purchased a pound of peeled shrimp, with 1 order of corn + 1 order of potatoes (3x), and an extra side of garlic bread at the end. I was extremely full at the end of the meal! I ordered mild seasoning, but I might ask for *no* seasoning next time. To be fair, this might be common for this style of cooking. Nevertheless, it might be nice to try the lemon pepper and garlic butter on their own. At first, I was apprehensive about eating the potatoes without utensils. However, I think they work well for dipping, and they are a better option than the garlic bread if you have something spicy (or mild). Either way, the corn paired nicely with the seafood. So, I may order an extra half a corn and/or consider ordering 1/2 pound of seafood next time (maybe without the potatoes). I also tried two of the flavored teas (passionfruit and peach), which were both excellent! Finally, I did not try them for this visit. However, if you are going with a group of friends, then there are also economical fried seafood options that I think looked like a good deal. read more

Yikes, flavor-wise this is probably the worst seafood boil I've ever had. My sister and I were craving crawfish and when the place we normally go to said they were out of crawfish, we decided to order from this place instead. It was a pick up order and the worker was nice and everything. But the food itself did not satisfy our craving at all. We spent about $130 on crawfish, shrimp, and garlic noodles. I barely ate any of my crawfish because of how unsatisfying the flavor was. It had a very strong cumin flavor. It reminded me of Indian dishes. Don't get me wrong, I love Indian food, but when I'm looking for a Cajun flavor for my seafood boil, that's not what I'm expecting. It was a waste of $130 because none of us liked the food. The garlic noodles were also bland and lacked garlic flavor all together. Will not be coming back here. read more

It has been months since I've come to this location. The vibe music wise was really good. No wait time, lunch time. We walked in and we're seated instantly. Food came out pretty fast. Catfish and cajun fries. it was just ok for me. They no longer put the lemons/limes on the table or salt and pepper. Just ok for me. Need some better hot sauce. It was way too watery and very little heat. read more

Food is overpriced, you're better off buying the seafood and making it at home, *Cajun flavoring is not Cajun, tastes just tomato sauce with pepper in it *deveined shrimp also looks frozen Service is nice but they don't give utensils for crab so you're having to use your bare hands to try and break the tough crab. Our waiter/waitress didn't come back after dropping off our food and when we were ready to leave she was chillin in the last booth and was relaxing and didn't come back until we approached her. Ambiance is actually really nice and chill with a good music taste. read more

I've been here several times. I loved it in the beginning queen first opened because they would give you a bubbling soap water to clean your hands when you were done eating. Then they stopped. The shrimp was really good cooked perfectly with fresh garlic. Again over the years, it's gone down but never got anything other than shrimp boil. We went this past week and got a whole crab, lobster tail and king crab plus shrimp. The everything was over cooked but the shrimp. Hardly any spicy. My daughters was mild and ours was spicy but they tasted the exactly same. The whole crab was over cooked and salty- not sure why it was cooked in salt. When you pulled the man from the king crab it was shriveled and a little rubbery. Besides that, they don't give you anything extra's like potatoes or corn. Which we have brought before and was too expensive for the price. The garlic bread is straight from the freezer section at the grocery store and I can make it better at home, again the price is way too expensive. The record shrimp basket is actually good. The restaurant is a little dark and the back of the restaurant is junkie. Don't even think about going to the bathroom. It's just they could do a lot better overall I don't think I would recommend this restaurant for shrimp boil everything is too expensive and not worth the time. read more

Awesome Food, especially the Crawfish Bowl or Plate it's like a little piece of New Orleans or South Mississippi by the Bay or Bayou. They give you a lot of Seafood especially the Crab and Potatoes in a large Soup Bowl with a good portions of healthy food. My favorite items are the Fried Catfish, Fried Oysters, King Crab Legs, and the Seafood Boil. read more

After five years of not coming, service was horrible. Waitress not attentive. Food wise flavor has definitely changed. I order a pound of shrimp all in one mix and it is just all seasoning. I ordered a side of sausages which the sausage taste was off it did not taste right. The Cajun fries taste like fish not a good taste. I used to love this place however will not be coming back. read more

We have been coming here since the first month they opened in 2014. Food is still on point with the spices, service is still very good and glad to see this family owned restaurant is still doing great. read more

The all-in-one sauce is absolutely terrible. There was no fresh or minced garlic in the sauce at all. It tastes like a bunch of powdered seasonings and water. Beyond disappointed considering it was our first time & the restaurant was empty.p read more

We took my husband here for Father's Day. Food was hit and miss. The service was good. The garlic noodles was the best. The fried catfish was good. It was not too heavy even though it was fried. The seafood boil was good you can choose what you want and how hot you want it. It is very pricey but I feel you don't get a lot for the price. The gumbo was terrible. That should be taken off the menu. If I go back it would be for the garlic noodles and the fried catfish. I can make my own boil for half the price. read more

Seafood and Crawfish - table - Seafood Near Me - Riverside, California

I was happily anticipating mouth-watering "fried catfish" as advertised. What I got was fried swai. I don't know if this is a thing in California for businesses to swap catfish with swai fish (also called basa fish) but it's not right. If you advertise catfish, serve catfish. If you're going to give swai/basa, then advertise for it. I cannot stand the bait and switch. The flavors and textures are not the same. The swai/basa tastes like what I imagine fried eel might taste like. Catfish is meaty. Seafood and Crawfish, just stop it. Other than that, the portions, extras, sides, utensils, etc were all good. Customer service, good. I have not tried anything else to be able to recommend this place but I sure enough can recommend that if you want catfish, DO NOT GO HERE. read more

I haven't been here since 2016 and boy has it changed. It was horrible this time. I got the Garlic Noodle dish and it was dry and the shrimp were hard and dry as a bone. We also got a 1lb of shrimp in a bag and the shrimp were extremely small and flavorless. The Gumbo was mediocre!! I will not be returning ever again!!! Our bill came to $95 and I am so disappointed in feeling like I wasted my hard earned money!!!! read more

Me and my friend both got a bag of shrimp last night and got food poisoning from it so watch out

My first time trying this place was a few days ago when I ordered for pickup. I got two pounds of crawfish, one pound of shrimp and a basket of fries and fried catfish. I will say I was disappointed with their combo menu, as they do not give you the option to substitute the seafood you don't like, which has always been an option for all the Cajun restaurants I've been to back in Orange County. So if I had one complaint or request it would be to change that policy or offer a bigger variety for combo menus because the two combos they had were not very enticing, therefore I went with the order I mentioned above. My favorite part of the meal had to be the Cajun fries and catfish!! I ordered to go, so it was a little soggy when I got home, but the pieces that I did try that were fresh had the perfect amount of crisp and seasoning. I love that the catfish was not over breaded and everutjing was well seasoned! I put it in the oven and broiled it for a few mins just to crisp it up and it was perfect. The crawfish and shrimp was good. The seasoning was not overly salty, which I feel is where most people mess up. They do not have a medium option. It goes from mild to spicy, which I don't really like. I got spicy for the crawfish and mild for the shrimp choosing all seasoning for both. The crawfish didn't come with a lot of sauce and aside from the spice, the seasoning tasted different from each other. The head of the crawfish was still hard, which my husband felt like a tad more cooking would've done it justice. The shrimp was not jumbo shrimp like I'm used to at the Cajun restaurants I've been to. They are quite small and don't have the taste of fresh shrimp or great seafood quality... and more like the ones you would buy in a bag at the grocery store. So with smaller shrimp, they tend to have a dry texture when cooked. Other than that, the flavor was there and it still satisfied our cravings. A huge plus is social distancing was enforced and workers were wearing masks, face shields and gloves. I placed my order online, but they didn't start my order until I actually got there, but the service was friendly so I was not upset over it. All in all I had a pretty good experience. The food and service was good! read more

I used to come here a lot before Covid and now I won't be coming back . The service is not great . You must ask for everything you need instead of being asked and now they charge gratuity automatically without informing you which I don't think is right . Wasn't expecting to pay an extra 30$ when I can't even get fresh water to drink ! read more

I was excited to go here before we saw a movie. However I was not very impressed by the interior. Nor did I like celery in the garlic noodles with shrimp. There was a ton of celery and I did not even understand why. The shrimp was acceptable and the sauce was acceptable but I was really looking for something like stinking crawfish in Downey. They have the best sauce. The iced tea had lots of leaves in it which is OK as far as Ice-T goes. The fried fish was actually quite delicious. We did not try the crab. All in all I thought this was probably my least favorite of this type of restaurant in the area. Maybe I'll give it a try again. read more

This is the best Seafood boil place in the I.E. I've tried HUNDREDS and none compare to Boiling Crab except this one! If u want a great and closer alternative to the Boiling Crab, this is it folks. read more

The food tasted delicious. I ordered the Fried Catfish and Cajun fries, which were fried and seasoned nicely. The fish tasted fresh and were nicely sized pieces. The Cajun fries were particularly flavorful. I'll be coming back again to try other items on their menu. read more

Flavors of the actual seafood boil were pretty good, just don't expect for your server to notice if you need anything to drink or any more whole lemons (they dont cut them for you) or any thing at all. I know it's not a traditional place to eat at because you're eating out of a bag. But I still think service should be a priority for this place. This is my third time eating here and I've received the same service so now I'm writing a review. Also after this last time ordering the shrimp noodles, they only put 4 shrimp in there and the rest is greasy noodles read more

Best place to eat shrimp in a bag! I've been visiting this establishment when I'm craving some shrimp in a bag. Shrimp is firm, fresh and juicy! Sauces are very flavorful! I always order a pound of shrimp, potatoes, sausage and corn with all the sauces combined. Sometimes I've also ordered buffalo wings and they are nice and crispy, juicy and flavorful! Cajun fries are great too! Overall a great experience dinning here! Service is good, prices are very reasonable and food is delicious! Best in Riverside on my humble opinion! I highly recommend this establishment! read more

My first and last time to this place. Went for my buddies birthday dinner on a Friday evening around 8:30pm. After being told of a 2+ hour wait at Yardhouse and BWW across the street, we settled to get some crab boil at Seafood and Crawfish. We walked in to a packed house with no hostess to greet, just a waiting list. Put our name down and waited about 45minutes to get seated at around 9:30pm. Waiter was nice and got our orders fairly quick. Since there was a group of 6, we ordered two of the Special B Combos, spicy. Food came out about 10 minutes after ordering. Taste was typical Cajun Boil, nothing over the top tasty. Finished and paid for our meals. Reason why I'm making this review is because afterwards I was horribly sick from the food I ate. I have never eaten food where I've gotten this sick. Vomiting, diarrhea, fever and body aches. I was down and out for 48 hours after we ate. Of the party that I was with, 2 others that ate from the same bag I did said they felt sick afterwards. read more

The food was ok. I've had. Much better. The customer service was terrible. They never came back after bringing our food. Had to go ask for refills. Then had to wait forever to get the bill. Then see they added a tip of 18% to the bill automatically for a party of only 6. There's a reason Star Crab had a 90 minute wait and this place was no wait seating. read more

The food was delicious and hot. I got the crawfish with potatoes boil which had large crawfish. I got it mild and it had just a little spice which was nice flavor. The person I went with got the gumbo and a calamari basket which they enjoyed. Service was okay but didn't really check in or give refills after giving food. We were the only people in the restaurant at the time. The low rating is because they charged more than what they say on the menu. I got potatoes which should be $3.59 but she charged me $4.50. I asked about it and she just made it up like oh that's what it says. As I left I grabbed a to go menu and saw that in fact I was right the price was less. So watch the prices when they charge you because they will charge you more for things. read more
