    If you're looking for a seafood boil spot I would recommend this place. You can sit anywhere you like. Inside looks clean. This place is sometimes a hit or miss but they always have their Tuesday crawfish deals and nothing beats that price! There was one time where I had ordered about 4lbs of crawfish and it did not look like it weighed that much so make sure you get what you ordered! It's always best to go on tuesdays and during their crawfish season for sure but the frozen ones are just as good. Every time I go, I do order a dozen oysters to share with whoever is down to do a shot with me too. You can't forget about service, they are lovely, they assist immediately if not too busy!

    Love the food and people here Throw your food on the table and eat away. What a great way to enjoy good friends

    Garlic Noodles, Cajun Fries
    Kimmie C.

    I hadn't had seafood boil/cajun-style food in a while, and this place satisfied my cravings. Dined in for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon and it wasn't too busy. The server sat us and took our order right away, and the food didn't take too long to come out. We ordered a pound of head-on shrimp and half a pound of snow crab legs with the allsome sauce in mild. I liked that the shrimp and crab legs weren't overcooked, but the sauce lacked flavor--I was hoping it'd be a bit more buttery. We also got the cajun fries and garlic noodles, and both of them were tasty. The fries were fresh and crispy, and they had a good amount of cajun seasoning. The noodles were garlicky and buttery. Overall, the service was great. Servers checked on us throughout our meal and provided us with everything we needed. I saw a lot of the negative reviews mention the restrooms being filthy, but that wasn't the case when we went (maybe because it wasn't super busy or late).

    The Crawfish Guy!

    If you're craving a full-on seafood feast, The Crawfish Guy absolutely delivers. I went all in and ordered a pound each of mussels, shrimp, and crab legs, plus four pieces of corn and two orders of hot links--and let me tell you, the portions did not disappoint. Everything came out hot, fresh, and packed with bold Cajun flavor. The mussels were juicy and tender, the shrimp perfectly cooked, and the crab legs were loaded with meat and easy to crack into. The corn soaked up all that seasoning beautifully, and the hot links added a nice smoky kick to balance everything out. I also added some chicken wings and Cajun fries on the side--both were crispy, well-seasoned, and the perfect complement to the seafood spread. But the real star? That Awesome Sauce. I found myself dipping everything in it--it tied all the flavors together and took the whole meal to another level. Definitely a spot worth coming back to if you're hungry and ready to get messy. Come with an appetite--you'll need it.

    Snow crab

    First time here, my brother got the medium and I got the mild. Sadly they didn't have any king crab. But we got only snow crab. The lady switched up ours. My brother realize it was switched because I ordered more stuff added on but it was in his bag. I can't stand spice but the medium was perfect. Order 3 pounds for 115$. A little expensive but it was worth it but the snow crab was thicccccc.

    Fish and chips.
    Don S.

    Pretty disappointed in the food. Fish was very greasy. Came with one small container of tartar sauce. I assume you need to buy another one as there was a price list on the menu. Too many good fish and chips places close by to have to settle for mediocre.

    Allsome Sauce in medium with Muscles, shrimp, potatoes and sausage. We added our own eggs and imitation crabs for the kids.

    Love, love, love this place!!!! Always my go to for seafood boil! Our classic order of Allsome Sauce in medium with Muscles, shrimp, potatoes and sausage. This time we added our own boiled eggs and imitation crabs for the kids. Sadly the garlic noodles were devoured before we could take a picture. Service is always fast! Place is always clean and busy so make sure you give enough time your party to be seated. Highly, highly recommend this place as you won't be disappointed at all!!

    Half filed ranches but they're new.

    Went in today and had the worst customer service experience. We ordered a 10pc wing a cajun fry and a pound of HS shrimp. Got there at 1pm mind you there was 5 tables 2 servers. We received our appetizer before receiving our drinks and I had to ask for them . we waited almost 15 minutes to get our drinks otherwise I don't think we would've received our drinks for a while. 2nd thing, after receiving our appetizers we got ranch which was filled up half ways as the rest of the ones we got were. I then asked the server about it and she said they're filled up half ways so they "won't spill" which is crazy because .75 cents for a ranch that's half filled is crazy considering we got fries and a 10 piece wing. 3rd thing, we didn't get checked up on not once for a refill or anything we didn't receive utensils or gloves or anything for our seafood boil. Round tables ranch is 1.08 cents for a large which is about 5x if not more then the ranches here that are 0.75 cents for a half filled ass container. Overall the food was good, but the service was not. I don't know what's going on in the front but they need to get it together.

    1 pound shrimp and 1 pound of mussels
    Saysamon M.

    The aroma when you walk in is to die for! I ordered food to go and waited about 15 mins which isn't bad . I tried to order ahead while driving there but they needed my card number before placing the order in which is understandable however I was driving and couldn't get my card out. So just FYI if ordering ahead you need to give them your card information. I ordered 1 pound shrimp , 1 pound mussels in allsome sauce medium spicy , 2 garlic noodles , 2 rice, add ons : sausages, corn and potatoes all of which came out to $75 The garlic noodles were the best I have ever had and honestly 1 order can serve like 2 or 3 people My suggestion is to order the shrimp whole !! I ordered them pre peeled because my husband hates peeling shrimp but it takes away from so much flavor The service was also fantastic , I'm only giving 4/5 stars because I thought the sauce could be more flavorful

    We came on a Saturday for a late lunch . This restaurant gets packed so come earlier if you are coming for dinner. We wanted to try some of everything so we ordered king crab legs , whole shrimp, crawfish (medium spicy ) , oysters (raw), clams( extra spicy ) and the 10 piece of wings with wet lemon pepper sauce . The food takes awhile to come out, more than 15 minutes but it was worth it because the food was so tasty !!!! The crawfish tasted super fresh and didn't have any of that muddy taste that I don't like . The clams were huge !!! I was expecting the smaller clams but they served the larger clams here which were super meaty and delicious. The lemon pepper wings here were one of the most delicious wings I have ever tried , they add some of there own seasoning and it's so so good . They are generous with the sauce and I took some of the sauce home! This is one of my fave restaurants down here !

    Service was great! ORDER: 1lb head on shrimp 2 lbs mussels Garlic noodles Shrimp & mussels were tough & allsome sauce was EXTREMELY garlicky. Garlic wasn't really cooked/was pretty raw & there was tons & tons of it. I absolutely LOOOOVE garlic, but this was way too much even for me. Same w/the garlic noodles, plus they were a bit too sweet.

    $8.99 a lb for crawfish on Tuesdays
    Mary T.

    This is one of my top three crawfish spots/seafood boils in Fresno. They have good sauce & I like their Tuesday $8.99 a lb crawfish deal. I always go with allsome sauce extra spicy. I feel like it can be a hit or miss cus lately I feel like my sauce be tasting a lil watered down. The season wasn't seasoning. Maybe since it was takeout and frozen crawfish? Idk but the last time I dined in, it was hittin. The sweet potato fries there are good. The oysters are a good size too. And the sauce at that time was actually spicy and seasoned well. Had the garlic noodles there and they was alright.. kinda too oily. My crawfish takeout comes with gloves, lemons, salt and pepper. Just missing some napkins lol. It can get messy!! Had some okay sizes for it to be frozen. Some crawdaddys and craw babies. I even had a pregnant one. IYKYK. So good!

    Frozen crawfish and clams, allsome sauce spicy
    Amanda S.

    Honestly the best Cajun spot in Fresno, I wish they had combo deals though.. But the flavor keeps me coming back.

A recent visit here had us waiting a long time for our mains. From ordering to being placed on the table, it took 30-minutes... my wife and I both ordered salads. Our drinks and appetizer came out quickly. We ordered the pistachio crusted calamari which is amazing and is a must order. It comes with their house aioli sauce which is delicious! I ordered the entree sesame shrimp salad and added tri-tip steak. This salad was huge and filled with chopped cabbage, sesame shrimp, cilantro, ginger marinated shrimp, crispy wontons, carrots, peanuts, and miso sesame dressing. Crunchy, filling, and full of flavor, this salad definitely eats like a full meal. To be honest, I didn't need the extra steak, but it was cooked perfectly. My wife's bistro salad was very lackluster; basically just a small side salad. But for $15 we figured she's at least get something a little more substantial. No sweet potatoes, no dried cranberries, and pumpkin seeds. It was literally just lettuce and cheese, see the added pics. She did order a side of steak as well. Pismo's is great spot and they make a mean martini, but they do need a little help with their timing.

I ordered an enchilada and asked to add chicken, but the chicken tasted burnt and wasn't very good. There's also no mole on the menu, which was disappointing. Overall, the non-seafood plates just didn't impress. The portions are huge, though. My husband had to take his burrito home, and I had to take my enchilada home as well -- definitely generous servings. For the kids: the burger was good, but the chicken nuggets were awful. They were extremely hard and overcooked, mostly breading with barely any chicken inside. Service was another downside. It wasn't very attentive, and on top of that, drinks are canned Diet Coke only -- no refills, which feels outdated for a sit-down restaurant. What really rubbed us the wrong way was the bill. The suggested tip was calculated after taxes, not on the subtotal. That's not standard practice, and it felt like an attempt to squeeze out a higher tip -- especially when the service didn't warrant 20% to begin with. Tips should be based on the pre-tax subtotal, not the total with tax included. Overall, this place is probably best if you're ordering shrimp cocktail, ceviche, or other seafood dishes. The non-seafood options and service weren't great, and I wouldn't return unless it was strictly for a shrimp cocktail.
