So not for the faint of heart but the food was awesome and the service great. We had two orders of King Crab, the rice, corn,egg and potatoe. Full spice and it was great. Messy but fun. It's nice and quiet as well so a good date place. Not fancy but it's not meant to be. read more

After hearing about the hype about this place for years, the opportunity to try finally showed up. Parking is available on the side streets. The inside looks like something out a fishing dockl, with the nets everyhwere. Despite the seafood theme, there was definitely an "Asian" touch to the menu. Evrything was battered and deep fried, and steamed rice was available as a side dish. Sizzing plate - the place was out of crawfish that day, so they substituted a mussel and a prawn. Decent quality and somewhat portion size, though the meal seemed overall more like something like of a HK cafe. I also tried the lobster fries. To be honest this wasn't worth it. It was covered in melted cheese and had some lobster chunks, but was overall quite forgettable. I'd skip this. Decent place to visit. Just don't expect a full on North American experience. read more

This was my second time going with a friend and I still love it! We got one extra pound of seafood along with one of their combos, which was one pound of seafood with fries and fried rice. We did the Captain's Boil sauce for all the seafood (clams, mussels, and headless shrimp). The fries were really good -- they seem to be Cavendish fries. The Cajun flavour was spicier than expected! I would get regular next time. The fried rice was also really good! So flavourful, but a little greasy. It actually started tasting like White Rabbit candy (because of all the butter?) at one point, which was funny. As for the seafood, it was delicious! So saucy and wonderful. I love the Captain's Boil sauce. Out of all the seafood types we had, I think I liked the mussels the most despite not liking mussels previously. This was way too much food for me though -- next time I will just get seafood! Service was fine -- they didn't bother us much, which was good. Everything you need is already at the table (lots of napkins & water!). The restaurant itself is very boat-themed -- befitting of the name. read more

I came here with 4 other friends. We arrived right after they opened at noon. We each got the lunch special: sizzling plate, Seafood Medley. It came with 2 prawns, 2 clams, 2 clayfish, 2 mussels and a choice between fried fish or chicken. I had mine with the fried fish. Because they ran out of clawfish, we got a substitute of 1 mussel and 1 prawn. I was also given a choice of sauce or flavor for my seafood. I had mine with the Captain Boil sauce which was a combination of all their sauces combined together. The food tasted good. The shrimp was not too fresh and therefore the meat got stuck to the shell. The flavor was good though. We algo got the lobster poutine to share. That was quite tasty. When I walked into the restaurant, one thing I noticed was the bleach smell. I guess they have just cleaned the restaurant with bleach before it opened. Service was ok. Overall the food wasn't bad. Prices were ok. There are free parking at the back. read more

I stopped in on a random Saturday night because I really like these creole fusion boils...I got the king crab boil (1 lb) and shrimp boil (1 lb) with corn & potatoes & one w/a boiled egg. I did the captains flavor...the thing with these boils are that you're going for the boil & not so much the flavor if that makes sense. I didn't have a reservation & it took a minute to be acknowledged by staff, then added to the wait list - they closed at 10p & I got there about 830p & they were kinda like if you're not seated with enough time you kinda gotta deal with it. 3 stars for the low-key rude entry/wait, small servings & vibe of the experience. Bacon wrapped scallops, Brussel Sprouts were a vibe tho . read more

Very disappointed, service was terrible and food was mid. The server was so rude and moody even though we told her it was our first time there read more

Just cane back to this restaurant and I must say they have improved their serving and have added extra health and safety in their restaurant. Servers are now separated from the people cleaning and the food is decently prepared. We ordered calamari, Lobster sandwich and the Sailor's B). I must say for the price there was a lot of seafood! My suggestion is to wear casual and give yourself time to eat. The shrimps , mussels and clams had very good sauce and they do cater for both people that do not like spicy to people who love spicy. A must try if you are in Vancouver-Kingsway area read more

I am a big fan of seafood boils but it's really hard to find a decently good one here in the lower mainland because most of them slowly disappeared over the years and in the end we are left to barely any choices. Tried all the different locations of chain and they are all the same, it's okay, nothing spectacular. A very casual setting and atmosphere with borderline okay services. Anyways, here were what we ordered during our most recent visit; 1. Lobster bisque with garlic bread. This is something new here? First time trying this out here. Surprising it's pretty good, actually a lot better then some of the fine dining places I been there. Except for the raw green onions, so Asian. The raw green onions were really not necessary, silly garnishing idea. 2. Scallops wrapped with bacon. It was abit dry but not too bad, but as I say. Not a fan of having my bacon deep fried. 3. Mix and match (clams and mussels) with corns. It was fresh and the captains boil flavour was tasty 4. Snow crab legs with okras and sausages. It is what it is, frozen products so can't compare to live ones. Overall, there really aren't any choices for a seafood boil if you are craving for one unless there are once awhile a seafood boil special during an event at certain restaurants. Usually their combo package here is okay for its price but if you are going to order the crabs and lobsters, the bill can be pretty high. Nothing to wow about at this place and don't know if I recommend it or not, best to ask your stomach! Or if you are one of those who can't even unwrap an imitation crab stick then you might as well give this place a try. read more

We got the Matey's Feast (Sailor's 2LB) - Our feast came with a shrimp basket and the shrimp was raw, it was sent back with an apology. We then got another basket and that was also raw. - The fried rice was drenched in butter, same with the Captains Boil sauce. Everything just tasted like butter. - Nice staff - they're kinda awkward but nice - We only got half a potato and half corn on the cob which wasn't enough more than one person - The waitress dropped some napkins on the ground while seating us then put them on our brown paper table where we were eating but replaced them once she realised what she had done - The sausage, half corn and half potato were served in a basket of white grease and oil - The mussels were okay, I got one with a nasty taste. We got the headless shrimp too and they tasted fine. Nothing special about the seafood tbh but everything was filling read more

The Captain's Boil - Matey's feast - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Having been to multiple Captain's Boil locations I can definitely say the quality of their seafood is pretty consistent, and this store in particular, lives up to the expectation. We made a reservation beforehand to avoid the lines, which proved to be a good idea, as the tables were over 80% full when we arrived for Thursday dinner. We saw that they had a combo menu with pre-selected items, but we opted for the a-la-cart option because turns out lobster was cheaper than dungeness crab at the time (combo requires you to add $8 extra to substitute the crab for lobster). We also got snow crab legs, clams, 4 corns, and potato fries along with the lobster. Their captain boil sauce is definitely the best to pair with the seafood and you must get at least a little bit of spiciness to get the full flavour. They provide free water for every customer and they come to refill it quite frequently so you can eat all the spicy food you want. The seafood are served in bags like the over locations and you're supposed to eat them with your hand. They provide scissors and the crab clamp to break the shells. The seafood was really fresh and the crab shell was pretty easy to break open. The potato fries definitely lives up to the expectation in terms of the large portion size and freshly fried and extra crispy. Dip it in the Captain's Boil sauce for extra flavours. Overall a really satisfying meal and I would definitely be back for more! The bill came down to $26 after tax per person, which is reasonable for seafood. read more

This location is a hit or miss but mostly a miss. Yesterday was my last time coming to this location. Our server was okay as she did not seem like she wanted to be there at all. Our server misheard one of the orders on the flavour but I didn't ask to switch it as I didn't realize until later. The flavouring was okay, it was mostly oil in our bags and the seafood did not taste fresh at all. It had an off taste. A lot of the clams were not open (have gone bad) so it was such a waste to have ordered. The sweet potato fries were the only good thing from our order. UPDATE: Ordered from here about one hour ago for my bf for lunch and he found a tiny hair inside... read more

The captains boil lunch special with fish is the best seafood deal you can get! I love eating this and when I am craving seafood this is my go to! They have this lunch special during a special limited time during the day from like 12-4pm or so. The sizzling plate is so good! I love it when my food is hot and burns when you get the captains boil sauce (medium spicy level) that is doused in the seafood. I always choose fish because it's deep fried rather than chicken, which seems to be boiled and the teriyaki sauce for the meat is great to pour over the fish and mix together with rice. The seafood comes with 2 crawfish, 2 shrimp, 2 mussels and 2 clams. It's definitely a seafood delight. So grab that apron and gloves and get diggin' for a seafood lunch at this great spot! read more

The Captain's Boil - Lunch special - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Captain Boil is a big franchise seafood restaurant. It has more than 30 restaurants across Canada in different cities. There are five locations in the Great Vancouver area. I have been to the two locations before: one is on Robson St. Downtown and another one is on Kingsway Vancouver. Both of the locations served quite delicious seafood. Very enjoy eating at Captain Boil. Captain Boil Kingsway Location is at 3309 Kingsway, Vancouver, BC V5R 5K6. The same as Robson St. location, is a super busy street in Vancouver. Many restaurants are on the street. Such a great location to open a restaurant on this street. I have been to this location twice with my friends and fiances. The first time was all you can eat Mussels night. The second time was lunch combo. For all you can eat Mussels dinner, three of us had 2lbs mussels each plus fries. It was awesome. The big plastics bags were full of fresh seafood. Yummy! Captain Boil's Lunch combo is another great combination. Fish or Chicken Teriyaki with rice with Seafood Assortments (2 Crawfish, 2 Mussels, 2 Shrimps, and 2 Clams). The total is only $13, which is such a great deal. Super hot rice with teriyaki sauce on top is super delicious. Definitely, we should go back to Captain Boil again. read more

Went to this place to celebrate our friend's birthday and our experienced was good. The place is not busy when we came and staff are friendly. We're very disappointed with sauce lack of garlic and too much oil comparing it with our last visit and at their Richmond branch. The male washroom is too tight and very cold. read more

Heard many great things about this place so I decided to try it! We ordered The Pirate (a set) which came with a choice of either lobster or snow crabs (I think that were the options) but we paid an additional $15 for King Crab Legs. We originally thought it would've came with at least 2 legs but it only came with one (disappointing :(... ) Meal consisted of: - 1 King crab leg - Cajun fries - Seafood fried rice - 3 lbs of other seafood (I chose 2 lbs shrimp and 1 lb mussels) - Captain's boil sauce + Lemon garlic pepper sauce TBH, everything was a bit too salty and the fried rice was lacking a bit flavor. Cajun fries were just right which is super silly because they're supposed to be known for their seafood... Definitely a place for me to try once and probably never again... or maybe another try since that day, their sauce might've been off that day. read more

With friends we visited this talk of the town restaurant.Lunch time and a bit busy but still we got a table for 6 right away.Easy to find restaurant,big place most likely it can house more than 50 persons.Waiter service. The decors are great its like i am at larry"s lobster mania,i love the walls,Tables are clean and the floor is not sticky. The server is very friendly despite he is busy,not bad as what i read in other reviews. We ordered the sea food fried rice..olalah all of us loved it we actually ordered another one,we had the shrimp,mussels,clam,okra,corn,the calamari and other things from the menu. No single complaint all were tasty,fresh and good. Foods were serve in a transparent plastic that is one thing i do not like in this place,hot foods in plastic is not very healthy,they can at least use a metal bowl to throw everything in there instead of plastic.The disposable bib is very low quality,the chairs are very heavy,i knew it because we need to move two of them and uses two tables. Prices are reasonable and i guarantee that all the sea foods we had during that time were all fresh.Parking is hard to find,metered one,or other parking owned by other stores. Noise level is average,wash room is clean,Good for group,family and kids(there is chicken in the menu(kiddo),Accept card,credit and cash. Not a bad place to enjoy your sea food cravings.I will return for sure.. read more

Great food ,great service. Edmonton North located. Worth the trip. .

Their shrimp is not fresh, big chunk of dark line in each shrimp, below is the quote from research : "The dark line that runs from head to tail in a shrimp is commonly called the "sand vein." It's the shrimp's alimentary canal, which is its digestive tract." We were unhappy about it when we found out. We was being told by waitress Yan "everyone eat it ! We never received any complaints about it !" Her attitude is not acceptable and rude to the unsatisfy customers. No apology, no exchange, no refund. We will send an email to the restaurant owner and report it to Canadian Food Inspection Agency. Do not order shrimp from them. Thanks! read more

High expectations were not met. Friend and I decided on the mussels and Dungeness crab. The meaty mussels with garlic sauce complemented well while preserving much of the ocean taste. However, the Dungeness crab left little to be desired. If I had asked for a SHELL of a crab, I'd have gone down to the beach to collect it there myself. I had thought the vast meat dissolved into the delicious boil sauce to which my very disappointed friend uttered, "Like magic?" The waitresses did not care nor come to our table even once to ask how everything was. This was not a cheap meal. Will not be coming back as there are plenty of other great places for fresh seafood in beautiful Vancouver. P.S. See photo of disappointed friend read more

This place is definitely a hit or miss. Dining in the food is cooked well and the sauce is addicting! Honestly if they only sold the sauce I would rather spend my money on that because the seafood itself isnt all that spectacular. Takeout wise also a hit or miss. Make sure you ask them to keep the bags untied because more often than not the seafood overcooks. Previously the corn they had was really juicy and sweet. Not sure if they changed where they get the corn because it is now bland and overcooked. Pickup orders during the covid situation is also a hit or miss. You have to call to let them know you have arrived or you wait until they come to the door to pickup your order. Once they were prompt and came out right away to give my order. The second time they didnt answer the phone and I stood in the heat for about 10minutes before someone finally came to the door to ask my name for picking up my order. Im assuming they only have one person handling orders and handoffs because noone else was around. All in all their sauce is the only reason my friend and I keep coming back! Hopefully they decide to sell the sauce only soon. The Kingsway location tends to make their sauce better than the Richmond one. read more

First time to this location. Made reservations. No private parking but lots of street parking available. Our waitress is great with answering our questions about the menu and also suggested a pitcher of coke instead of individual which would be a better pricing and savings. Much appreciated that. Ordered clams, crawfish, mussels, shrimp and corn with medium spice level. Mussels were delicious and HUGE Clams were good Crawfish - first time having it. Interesting as not much to eat for but good experience still Shrimp - average as our shrimp was a bit over cooked, mushy Spice level was on point and flavourful read more

The Captain's Boil - Shrimp poop - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I had been craving shrimp for MONTHS, time and time again I see "the captains boil" pop up on my Uber eats menus and I decided to bite the bullet and order 1lbs of shrimp. I was SO excited... my mouth watering as I watched the delivery car roll up. I opened my bag and there it was... SHRIMP!!! I was kinda thrown off by the head still attached but meh, I can take the head and shells off. Something told me. Before you bite check for the vein. There it was! Now I understand this is a big seafood place... so how come they can't take the time to devein their shrimp? Some may like eating the poop from a shrimp but I do not! It blows my mind how they serve their shrimp not cleaned!!!!! They are sizeable shrimp and it wouldn't take much effort to devein the shrimp. So being utterly disappointed and disgusted I called up the restaurant and asked for a refund. The manager told me that's how they cook their shrimp and they can't offer me a refund as it's "not an issue" I'm sorry... if eating shit isn't an issue I don't know what is... anywho... with the manager talking over me and not listening to me I got livid! I got put on hold 5 times so she could talk to the owner about my complaint... finally I had enough and I asked to talk to the owner... SHE REFUSED TO TAKE MY CALL!!! I can't imagine how they would handle an upset customer in store. Do not go here! If not because they don't properly clean their seafood and they overdo it with the use of plastic (I had 6 bags for corn and shrimp)... don't go there because the staff and OWNER clearly don't care about the customers. Why give your money to a company who doesn't care about you or the service you deserv read more

A bit of a forward. Eating here is not for everyone. If you like a clean meal That you have table linen and multiple sets of cutlery.... go else where. But if you have no problem getting a but dirty and hands on then come get. The food is fantastic! The Shrimp is delicious, the crawfish are great. The fried rice was so good with shrimp and scallops in it. Please know what you are ordering. Crawfish are tiny little models but the flavour they pack is undeniable. Like a tiny buttery lobster. We went with the captains boil for seasoning. It was so good that we were dipping fries in the sauce. The service was great. The sea food was properly cooked! We are highly looking forward to our next visit! Thank you for great food and a fun atmosphere!! Strap on those bibs and dig in! read more

Captains Boil reminds me of when I was in Vegas and went to a Crawfish boil place. It's definitely something Vancouver hasn't seen before and a must-try (unless you're allergic to shellfish). Tip ... you may want to wear full plastic rain-gear to eat your dinner. It's a fun way to eat, however it's VERY MESSY!! Food is yummy, definitely not lacking in flavour. We ordered the Captains Boil seasoning. It's my favourite out of the four choices. The prices are a tad on the high side. My son and I did a double take when they told us that their current price for the Lobster is $49.99 / lb.. I said, "Excuse me? ... $14.99?" and she repeated, "no ... $49.99". So a bit of gouging there IMO. We did ordered the lobster thinking for $50 it will be massive in size ... well ... it definitely had BIG flavour ... Service is sloooooooooooow and unorganized. There was no Rhyme or Reason on how things were done. Three people were cleaning tables while the line up to pay was ignored. People were walking in to eat, and we didn't see them taking down names. Sort of like, "whose next?". I asked for ice water three times before I got it. We needed extra bibs and didn't get it until three requests later. Seems like three is the magic number? Despite the slow service, we did manage to have a good time. I give three stars for the food. I take away two stars for the service and price gouging read more

CHANGE YOUR MENU. You claim to have 3 Lobster sliders for $23.95. The older senior couple beside ordered 1 of these and 1 other menu item. Literally as soon as it came, the old fellow asked the waiter and he said we can`t get the little slider buns in anymore, so we gave you 2 of the bigger buns. Out table laughed as the buns were very SMALL. Then another waitress came by and said sorry I didn`t tell you there was only two. That was it ! She didn`t offer him the meal for free, or a discount. Very poor restaurant decision. Spend the money and change your menu, that`s false advertising. read more

I was amazed by the flavors and the sauces in the restaurant, the interior was well decorated and it felt warm and cozy. The only reason my review is three stars is because of the crazy amount of plastic this restaurant used. Plastic cups, straws, bibs, gloves. Even the food was served in a plastic bag. I understand if the seafood was served in it but I ordered a single corn and they brought it to me on a giant plastic bag. It is appalling to see a restaurant in such a green city use that amount of plastic, and a popular one at that! Unless this changes, I don't think I could bring myself to come back, even if the taste was amazing. read more

Savage! The food was great. Service was second last to none. Only time I have never tipped. Paid over $80 for a king crab leg with upgraded side and two beer. Had a really awkward time ordering a beer because nothing on the menu was stocked. When the food was dumped on my table I was completely ignored after that not given anything to open the crab legs. Almost walked out without paying after standing at the front for a while wanting to leave. Weirdest dining experience ever. I'm wondering do you recycle the two plastic bags the meal is served in along with the bib and gloves? Why serve in plastic bags? read more

Recently, Vancouver has seen a rise in the number of seafood boils in town. It's not hard to understand why... Vancouver has access to a lot of great seafood and we're always on the lookout for new food trends. The Captain's Boil, a chain from back east, set up shop in Richmond last year and has now opened up a location in Vancouver at Kingsway and Joyce. Given this location being much more accessible for us, we dropped by at the end of December to try them out and see what the whole hype was about. The menu, and concept, is pretty simple... you pick your protein, your flavour, spice level, and add any sides that you like. Each diner gets a plastic bib and gloves and they bring out your seafood in baggies... meant to keep things a little cleaner. The table is covered with a brown paper sheet so you could, if you wanted to, dump all of your seafood out on the table and enjoy a more traditional seafood boil. It would make for a better picture than leaving the seafood in their little baggies but it would also be so much messier. Since this restaurant had just opened, they had a big sign saying they were still training and working out the kinks (in so many words). I'd have to agree that they have a lot to work on here. We wound up ordering a pound each of Crawfish ($15.95/lb), Shrimp ($12.95/lb), Clams ($12.95/lb), and Mussels ($10.95/lb). We also ordered two pieces of corn ($1 per piece), lotus root slices ($6.95), sausages ($6.95), steamed rice ($2), and pop ($2). If you've never been to a seafood boil before, it can be a little daunting to try and figure out how much you need to order. We found that we ordered the perfect amount to be completely full at the end of our meal. However, I feel like they need more options for the uninitiated (something like a combo which had a little bit of different seafood). As it was, they wound up getting our order wrong, even after confirming it. When we told them of their mistake, they didn't now what to do. To fix our order, they wound up giving us the bag of crawfish that they previously given to another table by mistake (we could tell because the crawfish were colder than rest of our seafood and we had overheard the other table complaining that their order was wrong too). In terms of the food itself, it comes out very quick. The menu prices looked like they had already been changed since they opened and I felt the prices were a bit expensive given the limited amount of work they need to do here. The crawfish really wasn't worth it as there was almost no meat inside and they were difficult to pry open. I preferred the shrimp, clams, and sausages of the bunch and thought that the lotus root slices were cut too thick. We stuck with a medium heat which wasn't overly spicy at first but we found that the heat builds in your mouth over time. Despite the gloves and bib, eating at a seafood boil is really messy and I found that the gloves developed holes from the sharp points of the crawfish. At the end of our meal, they wound up overcharging us as well. While some of the seafood here was okay, I probably wouldn't bother coming back as it seems overpriced for what you get... definitely nothing glamorous about eating here and getting covered in seafood sauce. read more

Ordered the Christmas $109.99 special for 4 people. Added 1 lb of mussels and a shrimp basket. Additional $15.99 each. The fried rice was good and so was the shrimp basket. The crab was illegally small, I guess when you are not paying per lb they use illegally caught crabs. Really bad business practice. The crab was over cooked. The mussels were frozen and non edible, it was like eating rubber. The clam were fresh and ok, just really really small. Frozen shrimp with the poo vein attached and watch out for those who like to suck the heads, the black inedible brain sack is there. Captains boils sauce was tasty but we were all very thirsty afterwards. Over cooked okra to the point when you grab one it was all slimy and gooey. It was extremely disappointing all the plastic bags that were used. It takes 10-1000 years for plastic bags to decompose. Every item came in a separate doubled plastic bag. By the end of the meal there was a huge pile of plastic bags. Even my mom complained and she could care less about the environment. Total $164.. and we left the uneaten mussels behind. I would go back for the rice and shrimp basket only. read more

We ordered the Captain's Boil shrimp and the Shrimp with fries. The shrimp basket was okay but nothing memorable. 1lb shrimp with Captain's boil sauce was fantastic. Loved the flavours of the marinade and it really goes well with the fresh shrimp. However, I do get the idea but eating here is just messy and a bit wasteful - lots of plastic and disposable stuff. Frankly, I'd love it if they had plates and utensils provided. Service was quite non-existent. We had to call their attention several times to place our order, to follow-up my rice order and to get the bill. I will give this a go again - probably just order to go if this is possible since the sauce is really yummy but I'd rather eat this at home. read more

Despite the reviews friends really wanted to go try this newly opened seafood restaurant. The seafood was really fresh and the prices were very reasonable for their seafood. We ordered king crab legs and wow it was full of meat, and full of flavor. As we had a group of 6 we made a reservation, they will only take reservations when group sizes are larger than 6. We sat near the server's so we had good service as they were quick to check on us for refills and to clean up our tables. All the seafood we ordered we good, fresh and flavorful. If you can't eat spicy don't order the mild, that one does have a kick and my friends couldn't handle it. But, it gives it a good nice kick:) As for the server's sometimes they didn't know which flavor they were bringing to us... So it was a self taste and figure it out! Not too bad cause we were sharing, would be more difficult if you aren't. Keeping in mind... This place you are eating with your hands, they will provide a bib and gloves. When wanting to wash your hands they have a sink near the entrance! It's a good place if you don't mind getting your hands dirty! read more

This is a decent seafood place to get your hands dirty, but their crawfish have very little to almost no meat. I had the Sizzling Plate combo ($10.95) which came with fish, crawfish, shrimp and clams. The deep-fried fish was unfortunately very salty, but the fish itself (Cod?) would be fine if it wasn't so salty. The crawfish was only for show as I extracted only about 1 gram of meat for two crawfish. The shrimp and the clams were good with the Captain's Boil sauce which was made with cajun, garlic sauce and lemon pepper and it was quite spicy for medium spicy. I ended up with dirty hands even with their plastic gloves, but each table had a big roll of paper towels. read more

I was excited to try their lobster roll lunch special. Unfortunately, it wasn't anything special. The lobster portion was lost among a large piece of bacon and you almost needed a magnifying glass to find it. I don't think there was even an ounce of lobster. The lobster bisque was worse. It was all liquid and lacked any seafood. The only redeeming thing was the half decent fries, but I wasn't there for the fries. I think they should take this off their menu as it definitely didn't resemble the advertised picture. For a birthday lunch, it was bitterly disappointing. read more
