Good portions , good food, check out the sauces can be spicy I prefer the mild version on my shrimps Don't like the crab all the weight is on the shells Dinner deal for four are a good deal enough for three adults Stay away from the seltzer we paid 18$ a can I think they are 4-6$ at the store. Lesson learned try the cocktails instead read more

The seafood is just fresh and delicious. You put on the epron and gloves and can dig in to the bags filled with yummy seafood. Staff is professional and efficient. It is a clean establishment. It has casual atmosphere. read more

Having eaten the best shrimp and crab boil at the North York location the night before....still craving more, I decided to order in from the Sheppard location which is near my home. I have avoided going back to the Sheppard location for years, as the food was always hit & miss. Hopeful the food had improved, I took advantage of the Uber eats 2 for 1 special... Sadly, the taste was not worth even 1 bag! I ordered: the Mild Cajun shrimp, with corn and potato as the sides. 1 look and I could tell it was not going to be as delicious as the other location. Instead of using the small whole potatoes as the other location did, they had a long russet potato that had been sliced lengthwise. These are great for French fries, but not so tasty boiled in Cajun sauce as they made the sauce starchy because it was cut open and disintegrating into the sauce. Also, it was so big that they were not fully cooked. While the corn on the cob was over cooked and dry as a bone. Most of the sauce had been absorbed by the AMAZON SIZED POTATO!! I wish they would fix the food, as I live nearby and would probably eat there weekly! read more

The Captain's Boil - Dry and tasted weird. - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

Came here for Easter Sunday lunch. We were greeted by the server at the entrance. They were not too busy. They setup our table of 8 and gave us the heads up there will be an automatic 15% gratuity for groups of 6 or larger. The menu does have some a la carte selections or you can choose one of their seafood feast combos. My sister-in-law was treating so she was ordering the food. We ordered the following items: 1. 2 x calamari $14.99 ea 2. 2 x lobster poutines $16.99 ea 3. 3 x 1 lb shrimps one garlic and two Captain Boil's sauce $18.99/lb 4. 2 x 1 lb Mussels $17.50/lb 5. Regular side of corn included with 3 & 4 6. Premium side sausage x 2 $6.99 7. Captain's Boil seafood fried rice $17.99 All the seafood had market prices due to fluctuation of cost of seafood. The seafood fried rice portion wise on the small side. The rice was late to the game and we would have appreciated if they brought that out before we ate all the shrimps and mussels. Food was great. They deploy robots to bring out the orders. Garlic sauce in the shrimps were kind of bland but the shrimps were crispy. The lobster poutine had nice pieces of lobster. Fries seemed to be soggy but the taste was on point. Sausage was juicy and we all liked it. Corn was cooked just right and really goes well with the seafood. Remember their sauce tends to be on the spicy side. We found the mild Captain Boil's sauce had just enough spice. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our Easter lunch and service was friendly. The total bill came up to $252 including 15% gratuity. The food is on the pricier side since we only ate shrimps and mussels. If I was ordering the food, I would go with two orders of the Matey's seafood combo feasts since you have a choice of 2 seafoods, Captain fried rice, shrimp basket, 1 premium side and 2 regular sides for $67.99. From a value perspective the feasts are the way to go with larger groups. Will come back again and try the feasts. The parking lot is in a state of disrepair lots of cracked pavement and potholes. Be careful when navigating around the parking lot. Please repair asap as this could damage customer's vehicles. read more

We checked out the Captain's Platter loaded with shrimp, mussels, clams, snow crab legs, broccoli, corn and potatoes! The meal is amazing! We had a memorable experience enjoying the seafood with our hands. Consult with your server before ordering your meal. They can help you to explore some delicious seafood dishes especially if it's your first time. Don't forget to order the veggies and seafood fried rice with the seafood platter. I would definitely recommend coming here to the Scarborough location for a family dinner, a fun date, or hanging out with friends. Huge parking lot, clean environment, and absolutely incredible customer service. 4505 Sheppard Ave E, Scarborough, ON M1S 1V3 read more

A fun eat with your hand experience but overall very salty. For a family of 4, we shared a few things for dinner. Some are hits while others are misses: Sailor's A Set: OK: 1 lb garlic shrimp- lots of flavour but very salty HIT: Fried Rice- excellent flavour! MISS: Cajun fries- extremely salty. Also, we had 2 baskets of these and one is crispy while the other is soft. Seems to be inconsistent frying. MISS: Garlic Bread (3pc)- Very soggy! Mushy texture and not toasted at all. Also needed more garlic HIT: 1 lb wings- this was the best dish amongst everything. Very fresh and flavourful and salt level not overwhelming like it is on everything else. PASS: Fish and Chips (Reg)- 3 pcs of Haddock with cajun fries. Fried ok, but the flavour is exactly like frozen battered fish, little off-putting. Fries are quite spicy and salty if that's your thing. Too much seasoning for me, so I'll be passing on this next time. Needed to drink a lot of water after this meal; not a place I'll come to regularly. Also, unless you're getting a glass of beer, all their bowls and cutlery are disposable. Lots of plastic waste read more

I like the idea of this place and of course, it's always fun to eat with your hands. Make a mess--They got you covered with houses, bibs and a washing station right in the restaurant. We got the snow crab legs and mussels. Mussels are consistently meaty here and the crab legs were sweet and meaty as well. I got rice, potato, corn, and okra as the sides. The corn was delicious and I enjoyed the Okra. I would advise not having those in the bags of seafood though. The sauces were so incredibly oily. The bag of mussels had almost no sauce. It was just filled with a red oil. It's like they have a vat of sauce, and scooped the top layer for us. I couldn't bear to eat it, so I ended up squeegie-ing each piece off.... I found it not only oily, but very salty. We barely got through our two pounds of seafood. Maybe a one time visit for us. I prefer a different but similar concept restaurant. I was also quoted a different price at the start of dinner and what appeared on my final bill. Honestly, I didn't find it worth trying to flag someone down to correct. I wouldn't have minded the higher price, if they had been honest up front. It just left me with a bad taste at the end of the meal. I understand why it's such a popular idea and I encourage you to try it for yourself. I personal would get my seafood fix elsewhere. read more

Captain's Boil is like the perfect sneaky link, it really knows how to hit the spot. In fact, it hits it so well that it'll put you to sleep afterwards. For real though, Captain's Boil is a great place to get your hands dirty and have some finger-licking good food. Captain's Boil specializes in Cajun seafood boil where you choose your type of protein drowned in your choice of sauce. My go-to order is the sailors (b) for $62 which comes with 1 lbs of shrimp and 1 lb of mussels, shrimp basket, seafood fried rice and 3 sides! Talk about a deal! With that much food it put me in a food coma. There are way more different combos they offer that include crab and lobster so give those a try if you're more bougie. They currently do not have any kegs in so I wasn't able to get a pitcher of beer, which was a bit disappointing. I'll be back when I need that next sneaky link fix. 3.8/5 read more

Update: Came back to Captain's Boil since I got an invite to come for dinner. This time they let our table order more than two of the Sailor's Seafood Feast. The last time I was here, they mentioned there was a new policy from head office where there's a limit of two per table. Only reason I didn't give full star is because the apron (or bib?) is made of paper and rips easily. Overall, I can now say that you should check this place out if you are craving a seafood feast. Note that I got a reply from their account that said no such policy existed. read more

My friends have typically insisted on traveling to the North York location after having one bad experience here where their sauce was watery, but we came back to give it another chance. It was my first time at this location. I haven't been to Captain's Boil in a while but my first notice was that they've spruced up their menu and now there's more selection and other dishes to choose from. They also now have different combo packages. I ordered a pound of mussels with mild captain's boil sauce. I usually order a side of fries and a corn but this time I forgot to. The mussels were tasty and the sauce was flavourful. I think Captain's Boil is a little inconsistent with their quality, because I've noticed across chains that sometimes their sauce tastes better and worse during different visits. A pound of seafood wasn't enough to fill me. After I was done the mussels I didn't really want to back track and order more, so I ended up stopping by elsewhere for quick take out snack food. I do enjoy the environment at this location more than the other location though. It's more spacious and the set up feels nicer. The parking area is a bit awkward and limited though... I had to park in the plaza next door but it was an easy and quick walk over. Service was good, nothing notable about it. Don't expect to get full off of a pound of seafood... ordering fries or other sides is necessary to leave with a full stomach! The sauce is good and quality was good. Captain's Boil is one of those places I'll crave every so often, it's a nice place to revisit every once in a while. read more

The Captain's Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I think maybe this style of cuisine is just not my cup of tea. We arrived at this restaurant on mothers day. The parking lot was completely full (predictably) and it was difficult getting a spot to park. We went into the restaurant where we were directed to the table where we had our reservation. My mom isn't much of an eater so we ordered a sailors which was a pound of clams, a pound of shrimp (heads off), a side of potato and a side of corn. We also asked for a starer of brussel sprouts, cuz we like brussel sprouts. The first thing that came to our table was a potatoe. Someone came to our table and put a half a potato on the table, no utensils, no gloves, no bib, no bowl, no plate, nothing. We were like "How are are we supposed to eat this?" and they were like "Oh you were supposed to get utensils, and bowls, and bibs. Which they disappeared and someone brought a bowl some gloves, and bibs and napkins. Through the meal people who come and put something on the table. A piece of corn, a bag of clams, a bag of shrimp and lastly the brussel sprouts we asked to be a starter. There was also rice The potato was good, though I am not used to someone just dumping a bag with a potato on my table and leaving, the corn was also good but same thing. The clams were good, very buttery - also just brought in a bag and left on the table. Were we supposed to dump it on the table or eat it out of the bag? My wife had chosen this place because it reminded her of a place in Seattle where they come and dump like shrimp or clams on the table for you and you eat off the table. I didn't really like the shrimp. I am not used to being served shrimp with legs on, it kinda grossed me out. I mean it tasted really good once I shelled it and kinda got rid of the legs, but I don't think it's really my preference for eating style. It's a good thing my wife insisted on ordering the shrimp without heads - I don't think I would have even touched it if it had a head. The brussel sprouts were ok. I liked the seafood rice, it was very tasty. The service was ok. We were like "Oh I don't think we have eaten in this style of cuisine before" and they were like "You have never had seafood?" I don't think I would eat here again, I didn't find the food to be of my liking. Maybe if you like this type of eating and are familiar with it, you would like it. read more

Had a great experience for my first time at Captains Boil. The staff was friendly and greeted us when we came in. They promptly assisted me to my seat once I told them about my reservation. When we sat down, our server introduced herself, and asked if we had any questions on the menu and if we wanted to have anything to drink. She was able to answer all of our questions, including the specials, price differences etc (she was basically very knowledgeable about the menu and restaurant) The food came promptly after we ordered and wow, I was excited to get down and dirty with my hands. We ordered everything mild with the captains boil sauce (which tasted amazing). Everything was hot, and the sauce was very flavourful! The hardest part was keeping our phone and clothes clean, and grabbing napkins haha. Will definitely come back again in the future for another feast. Thank you for making our experience read more

2.5 Star for lunch Experience which offers Chicken/Fish Teriyaki with a side of seafood for $10.95 We were here on Saturday around 2:00 pm for a late lunch. The restaurant was not too busy and we were seated promptly and was given a cup of room temperature water in plastic cup. (suggestion: maybe some iced water would be better?) Chicken Teriyaki with Captain Boil Sauce Medium Spicy - The chicken was tender and flavourful - The hot plate was sizzling hot when served Fish Teriyaki with Lemon Garlic Sauce Fire Spicy - The hot plate was warm with no sizzle at all! - The fish was mushy and more batter than fish - The sauce was lurk warm and the seafood was not really cooked through, especially for the clams and mussels which has this mushy texture The 2 craw fish on each of the order were probably the worse. The tail meat was tasteless and mushy. We ended up just have one bite and left the rest untouched. Maybe the side seafood would have tasted better if it was served/prepared in one of the bags instead of just putting them on the hot plate and served with sauce on top? At least they would be hot instead of warm? I would not recommend the hot plate special! Serving those the way it was really not really represent the real seafood boil experience! Ordering something from the actual menu probably would be the best bet. My first ever Captain Boil's experience was a disappointment. Maybe I should not have order those specials.. read more

Shrimp or Chicken Slices. Order them smothered in the captains boil sauce. If you can handle your spice, order fire as the heat score. You will thank me later. The captains boil sauce is literally crack. Can't get enough of it. A place I'll be going to with the fam till death. Easy 5 stars for me. Plus I'm a huge fan of seafood so I guess you can say I'm a little biased. read more

The Captain's Boil - Aftermath - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I've been here four times in the last four weeks and I have to give them points for consistency. The seafood has been fresh every time and the service has been great. I even have my own personal server now, Nia. ;) She's great! My personal favourite is the snow crab with Captain's Boil spices, corn on the cob, and Cajun fries. The spicy garlic butter is delicious! My fellow diners usually go for the clams and shrimps. Tonight, we tried the crawfish and nobody was crazy about it. Their ice cream is always good! Each visit, I've been with different friends and family. All of them said they'll be back. So will I. read more

Let me get this out of the way first! It's messy. It's flavourful. It's an experience. For the uninitiated Captain's Boil serves up seafood (or chicken) that's been spiced up and boiled. Once all the flavourful goodness is ready, it's served in a bag along with the sides. The bibs and endless napkins at the table were a definite must. The Crawfish had an ok flavour, but I've had better. The texture wasn't the best and the captain's spices (a mix of all 3 spices available) seemed to overwhelm everything. To boot, the whole thing was not as filling as I'd imagined. The service here was also definitely lacking. Considering the place was relatively empty, they were slow to respond and had to be waved down. All this being said, it seems like the menu has some real gems and I'd like to go back. The meal itself is an experience and it's worth trying. I would just not get my hopes up to high beforehand. read more

Lowering my score to a 3/5. Today I ordered a lobster with the captains boil sauce. Starting with Quality: As always captains boil never fails with flavor. Regardless of what sauce you select, it will satisfy your taste buds. I did however notice that the captains boil sauce was over powering the taste of the lobster. I still enjoyed it but it would be nice if it wasn't over powering. Portions and price: $42.00 for 1 lobster???? That lobster didn't even satisfy me and I was still very hungry. If you're a lobster lover and you're on a budget and want good quality lobster then go to red lobster. 42.00 gets you one lobster at captains boil and there's barely any meat..so disappointed 39.00 gets you a rock lobster tail with veggies and one side at red lobster. Not worth 42.00 at Captains boil. Sorry captain! I'm off your ship. I will be back for the sizzling plate because I think that's the only item on the menu where I can be satisfied and not worry about my wallet. read more

The Captain's Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

I am an avid customer of this particular location and I generally don't have any complaints. Most of the time, you get to choose where to sit. Your bibs and gloves are already laid out on the table and they immediately bring out water to you. The service is always on point (at least for all the times I've been here) and they tend to check up on the table every once in a while. They also upgraded their menus with a few more new items/combos (they have daily specials now too). I always order the pound of shrimp and mussels in the captain's boil sauce with a side of steamed rice. If it's your first time, I definitely recommend trying anything with the special captain's boil sauce - it's literally just all the sauces mixed together but it's SO GOOD. I like getting the shrimp and mussels because they're both much meaty-er than let's say, crawfish (which I do not suggest to get at all because of the bare minimum meat). Speaking of, if you get the sizzling platter, which is also really good, it typically comes with crawfish, shrimp, mussels, clams, rice and your choice of fish or chicken HOWEVER, you can substitute the crawfish with more of the other seafood(s) included. The cajun fries and seafood fried rice are also really good... honestly, I'm just a big fan of Captain's Boil generally. Overall, this is a good casual place for seafood and to get messy with family and friends. They cater to big groups and give free ice cream when it's your birthday AND their music is always bangin'. read more

This location of Captain's Boil has quickly become one of my family's go to spots for both dining in and grabbing take-out. Whenever we come here we're always greeted by the staff and service is always super quick. Our normal order is usually a pound of shrimp with the captain's boil sauce and their seafood rice, which is always very flavourful. I've also tried their clams and mussels which I would also recommend. I believe they have 4 sauces you can choose from, however I always stick to the classic captain's boil sauce. In addition, you can choose from mild, medium and spicy depending on your spice tolerance. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place as staff are friendly, service is great and food always hits the spot! read more

Three stars for the service. During our whole time there it was friendly and helpful and we felt welcomed. The Captain's boil is one of those places you go once for the experience but wouldn't be inclined to go back again. You order your "catch" by the pound - lobster/crayfish (seasonal), crab legs, clams, oysters, shrimp, and chicken if you don't want seafood. You pick your sauce - we picked the Captain's boil sauce. The food comes in a clear plastic bag. The clams were good. Many fell out of their shells and drowned in the sauce it becomes too salty. We got it with mild spice, which actually tastes better than the one with no spice! The shrimp was average. It was hot! Be careful when you're eating them. Your mouth is more used to hot food than your fingers. We got one pound of clams (11.95) and one pound of shrimp (13.95) and portions were definitely not enough. I'm a small eater and even I was still hungry. We ordered a side of cajun seafood fried rice. The rice was kind of like the kind you get when you order sticky rice. Good, but so salty and so buttery. You have been warned. Minimal amount of seafood and not worth 11/12 dollars. I'm not one to be particularly passionate about the environment but I was kind of shocked at how much waste just two people made. Shrimp/clam shells, the plastic bags, paper towel (there is a whole paper towel roll for you to use), the plastic bibs, the plastic gloves, the plastic cups they give you for water (!), the can of Coke, and the brown paper table covering would all go to the garbage. Two people! Can you imagine four or even a bigger group of ten? It actually made me a little uncomfortable and trust me when I say I'm really not one to be very passionate about the environment as bad as that sounds. But this was bad. I wouldn't come back. It was mildly interesting to eat out of a bag with gloves but it's not worth another trip. Service is great though. read more

I got the fish and chips and the fries taste just like costco fries! I loved them. They gave a big size portion for fish, I couldn't even finish. Our server was really nice, in fact, he was too nice, to the point where he would over talk. But that's okay because he did a pretty good job serving. It was my friend's birthday, and I tried to discreetly ask for a birthday surprise thing, just like you would at any restaurant, but they ended up coming to our table and asking the girl for an ID to see her birthdate. I understand that they want to verify that it's actually the person's birthday since they're getting a free dessert, but I mean, c'mon, we wanted it to be a surprise. Plus, it's literally just two scoops of ice cream with a candle stuck in it. Other restaurants give far more without asking for verification. That ticked me off a bit. read more

The Captain's Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is one of my parents' favourite places to go and one of the usual restaurants we bring visiting relatives. We normally try to go during lunch hours because it's less busy and the service and food has been consistently good during lunch (whereas sometimes it's hit or miss during busy dinner hours). We normally always order at least a pound each of shrimp, clams and mussels in the Captain's Boil sauce with mild heat. I personally find the Capitain's Boil sauce to be the best choice of the sauces and the mild heat is a good level of spicy (though my spice loving relatives preferred spicier). The shrimp is normally a safe bet to order. The lobster and crawfish, however, are usually on the smaller side and not really worth the price, in my opinion. The restaurant, itself, is very spacious and the tables are spaced relatively far apart. You get unlimited gloves and bibs which you definitely need because it gets very messy. There are also sinks stationed throughout the restaurant for you to wash up at. Parking can definitely be a hassle during peak hours because of the small parking lot, however, there are plazas nearby that you can park at within walking distance. read more

I had a sudden crave for Captain's Boil, and decided to give this location a try. I went with my family and friends on a busy Friday night. I think this is the biggest location in Toronto, and I believe it has a capacity of 100+ seats. They also have a big party room that can hold at least 30 people. I think it would be good for private company events/ birthday party. The good part is they do take reservation for weekends, and have a huge parking lot. Service for this location was great, but I think they might be a little under staff in a restaurant this big. I saw all the staffs running around like crazy, but everyone was attentive and helpful. One good thing is that they kept walking around and asking everyone if they are good with everything, while refilling their water. Eating this food got me really thirsty especially, with the garlic sauce it was quite salty. Prepare to drink lots of water. I acted like it was my first time eating at Captain's Boil, and I asked the server to explain everything to me. He took us through step by step from choosing our catch to choosing our flavour and even clearly explain the different level of heat. He also made very useful recommendations such as getting the French fries extra crispy, and dip it in the Captain's Boil sauce. He was right about that and it was very delicious (highly recommended). In the end, I ordered the Captains Boil Lobster, Garlic Sauce Shrimp and Lemon Pepper Mussel. The flavour was very good and consistent compared to the first time I had Captain's Boil. The only downside from this restaurant is they do not have mixed drinks. I really wanted some Mojito to enjoy the tasty seafood. However, my overall experience at this location was excellent, I will be back and also recommending people to come here. I am also looking forward to try other locations in Toronto.

I can't say it's jaw dropping good but it's decent. Shame that they charge small sides like corn and potatoes. In the states those come for free so it sucks when you have to pay $2 for a small piece of a side. Mussels and shrimp are delicious. At $12/lb and 15/lb, the king crab was massive for a pound. But don't know if it's worth it. Gets super busy after 630. So come before then. Staff is friendly but sometimes you have to wave them down. Try it out! read more

Boiled seafood in a bag. No utensils nor plates. Essentially the only thing in between you and your food is your plastic gloves (literally). Came here with parents and ordered shrimp, mussels, okra, corn, fries and crawfish. We really just wanted to see what the fuss was about. Needless to say it was a good experience for a first time visit. Very unique concept that really lets you play with your food. In terms of this specific location (I know franchises have been popping off) - it was great to have a 10% off coupon to invite people in the neighbourhood to try it out. Staff was attentive and the location was very clean. Located where Bersalino used to be at Sheppard/Brimley. Not sure if I would come back without the coupon but rating it a good experience overall. read more

The Captain's Boil - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Toronto, Ontario

This is my favourite seafood boil restaurant ever! I am always always left fulfilled and craving it again the next day! I really recommend getting the captains boil sauce on the shrimp. Medium spice is just perfect for those who like spice. I wouldn't recommend going any higher because it kinda ruins the flavouring. The only reason I am not giving this a 5/5 is because their crawfish is not good. I was told they cook it every morning but it's not fresh. They are also really tiny for the price you pay. I have tried it twice so far thinking the first time was just a bad batch but both times the crawfish did not taste well. It's a bummer because I love crawfish. I hope they start getting the crawfish right! I know it's crawfish season right now so there should be no reason for them to be so tiny and not fresh! read more

Went again. As usual the food was really good, I think they've changed the composition of the house sauce but still really good. The service was wayyy better and I have no complaints in regards to that. I love that they have these festive special things, the combos give you the opportunity to try a bunch of different things for a decent price. The ones for 4/6 people also included the seafood fries rice which I love. read more

This is our favourite location to go to! We initially went to the one in North York but found this location and were thrilled as it's closer to home. We haven't tried the location near Pacific Mall yet though. The service was great, food was fast, and the food is delicious! If you're a seafood lover you'll definitely enjoy Captain's Boil. The sauces were difficult to differentiate but the deep fried shrimp tempura was amazing, and so were the Cajun fries. The chicken was very tender, and the shrimp and mussels were delicious. Although a bit pricey, good for special occasions. read more

I really don't understand the hype about this food joint. We ordered the halibut and chips and the lobster roll. They missed our order twice, we had to wait about 45 minutes for our order. I guess they knew how bad their food was and hoped we would leave (they knew I was recording for a review, will post the video on Youtube shortly). It was definitely NOT worth the wait. This would probably be the worst seafood we ever had. Maybe it could be the expectation that seafood would be fresh at a fish market. (More on the fish market later). The halibut was dry as cardboard so you know this was frozen. It's not just about the dryness, it was like they found a piece of frozen fish at the bottom of the freezer and left in the fridge to defrost for months and cooked it after all the moisture evaluated. Hope this give you some sense of what it taste like. If not, imagine a McDonald fish sandwich as a gourmet meal. Now on with the lobster roll review.
