    Cocktail forgot the name but delicious!
    Peka G.

    Crave-able crawfish and crab!! My new favorite seafood boil restaurant! My friends and had a great time. We enjoyed some tasty drinks, and shared the crab fries, a combo boil with crab, crawfish, and shrimp with their house hut sauce medium spice. It was all really delicious! Their sauce was exactly what I want in a seafood boil, and the crab fries were perfect. The restaurant is cute and clean. It's very bright and inviting. The staff were all friendly, helpful, and welcoming. I would definitely recommend you to fulfill your seafood boil cravings at Crawfish Hut, try some of their yummy appetizers, or grab some drinks!

    There was a crawfish spot in Seattle that had been my favorite spot for many years. But the last time I tried that place, the flavor totally changed and was not as good as it had always been. And a couple people who also loved that place said this place was really good, so I believed them, and been wanting to try this place for a while. And then I actually tried the location in Stanton, CA first just last month, and really enjoyed it, so when friends invited us out for dinner here, I happily accepted. I got the same thing as that last time: a pound of head-on shrimp and a pound of green mussels in the Hut Special sauce at the Flaming spice level. I didn't find it that spicy, but the flavor was still really good. We all really enjoyed our boils. Staff was friendly, and service was great.

    I'm so glad a crawfish place that's good opened up near my house. Though it can be dangerous as it is so close! I've been here a handful of times already and it is hands down the best crawfish place I've been to in Seattle. First off, there was never a time where it was too busy that I had to wait, though there were times I did see a line after I was sat. So do make a reservation on a weekend if you come. There is also a lot of parking outside which is a plus. The service here is always quick and attentive. All the drinks I've gotten here are also good in terms of taste and alcohol content. The crawfish and the sauce / spice is so gooood. They also have certain days where they have specials as well too! The only thing is crawfish is always so expensive. Whenever I come here, my portion is almost always $100. Though that is normal with every crawfish place, crawfish definitely isn't a place to eat often.

    This is the best seafood boil I've tried in the seattle area. I went on valentines for dinner and they had live jazz which was super fun!! I was most surprised by how good the scallops were, they just melted in my mouth. The hut special sauce was great, we got mild which didn't have any spice. I would definitely try a spicy sauce. I also enjoyed the shrimp and the green mussels. I wish they used smaller potatoes and included more of them. Overall, the servers were really nice and attentive. I will definitely be coming back!

    I ordered combo 3 adding boiled egg and sausage. I chose Hut Special sauce for it. Very flavorful, I liked it a lot!! I really liked that the shrimp was clean and de-veined! The only thing is that I wish the sauce was a little less salty, I eat very salty but this is a bit too much, and the bottom it gets, the saltier it is too, so if you can adjust this it would be perfect!!! Also ordered garlic fries on the side and it was pretty good as well The service is very efficient and friendly! I would definitely come back :)

    We had a great experience with their crab boil. The hut special sauce (we got mild, not spicy at all and I have a low spice tolerance) was absolutely delicious and so flavorful. We were dipping our fries in it. Their raw oysters were really tasty too! It was a lively ambience but not too loud. They have TVs if you want to catch a game.

    Delicious. Great flavor on the "hut" sauce. Unfortunately, we had some wussies in the group, so we got a big mild combo for everyone. So my biggest complaint is I wish it was a tad spicier. Everything was scrumptious, and I would peg most of the catches as being on the larger end, including the mussels and crab legs. I did find the umami of the crawfish to be somewhat superior to the shrimp here. There was a bit of sand in the mussels, but I forgive you. I will note that a lot of the food had hard shells requiring some cracking, but all we had initially were some very dull shears. Fried rice was good, but not a good pairing for the seafood. That's not to say that it's bad, just that white rice or noodles is more fitting, as most Asians should be able to attest to. This rice actually does have scallop and crawfish. However, the flavor is still rather muted in comparison. The fries had a good texture has well. The nuance of its crispiness reminded me slightly of checkers fries. I do think these would be better with a tad more seasoning of some kind.

    King crab, Fried Calamari, shrimp tempura, corn, crawfish.

    I recommend the food everything i got was great. The parking was relatively easy to get.

    Nice spot for seafood! Food was delicious and service was quick. Kid friendly and a nice chill spot!

    This spot is my favorite place for seafood boils ever! I've been coming here since they've been open (before they even expanded the restaurant). Although I don't get seafood boils regularly, when I do, it's always here! The hut special is my all time favorite for the sauce. They are always consistent here on their recipe and that's what I appreciate. When I'm paying for seafood boils I expect consistent recipes, compared to other places where they are often so inconsistent when I try elsewhere. The crawfish hut will never disappoint me. The workers are always so kind here, the space is so comforting and clean. I love their fries here as well. I tried their hut special sauce for the wings for the first time, I can say that isn't my favorite. It needed more depth to it, it almost tasted like a subtle sweet chili sauce (the one for egg rolls) with a hint of garlic. I think it needs some other twist of seasonings to the taste to improve. Although the chicken did come saucy, I think I'd try a different flavor next time and wouldn't order that one again. But otherwise, this place is a must for seafood boils!

    Service is kind and fast. Flavors were great for the house special, maybe a bit more garlic would be nice but everything else was good! Loved dipping fries and having rice with the sauce. Adding sausage felt like a ripoff. Probably 6 pieces was max a whole sausage maybe even half of one cut up. Should give more if they're charging $4. Loved having the bibs and gloves. One of the better viet cajun seafood places out there! Fun ambiance too

    Glad we gave it a chance again from 2 years ago; tonight we were definitely blown away from how delicious the seafood was! Service was good and deals as well. No complaints here and we definitely want to come back again! The sauce was perfectly sweet and garlicky like how we like it. The hut sauce was a bit spicy but good heat to it. The sauces taste different from before in a better way and thicker even. Even my cousins that don't usually enjoy eating crawfish want to come back again. They had good deals tonight too; $14 a lb of crawfish. The oyster was ok probably won't get again. The new renovation was also a nice touch and a big difference since I first came here. I didn't even get to take photos today because we all finished the food so quickly !

    Recently just moved to the area and noticed the Crawfish Hut. Immediately had to check it out! We first ordered the fried calamari. One of the best calamaris I have eaten. shout out to our waiter Julie she was amazing! I was taught to know the difference between fresh and frozen crawfish but Julie convinced me to try the frozen jumbo crawfish. Skeptical that I was .. it was pretty amazing. I got crawfish, shrimp and crab house sauce and hot and of course one potato. Half way through the meal I ended up giving the rest of my crab away and ordering another pound of crawfish this time I got extra spicy cause the hot can be pretty tamed. It was delicious. I love a good saucy crawfish with all the garlic and butter delicious. I was told that there may have been a little too much garlic but that is a selling point in my book. Of course in Seattle crawfish prices are a little higher .. but this place is worth it. My new favorite spot and 5 minutes from my house. In terms of pricing it's better to get a combo and share :)

I recently had the catfish poboy. It was just okay. It looked better than it tasted. I can't put my finger on why it wasn't that great, but it was just very "meh". The fries were really good though. Services is okay. They always seem to struggle with service, regardless of how busy the place is. But they are nice. Ambience is what you'd expect at a place like this. Nothing spectacular, but not dirty. I would love if they had a better ventilation system. The friend smells and spices are extremely strong! Overall, a solid restaurant, but if you're looking for a place with high quality seafood, may want to find another spot.

Was thinking of another round when found wife wasn't so happy with the sad dozen micro-oysters she was serviced. Somehow, I realized the second level resturant was serving better oysters similiar to what was being used in the oyster shooter and we relocated to top level of the resturant. What a difference, different menu, was a fine dining experience - just what we needed so stepped up to the next level.

We didn't care for the rhubarb cocktails (much too sweet) but they were taken away without any comment and removed from the final bill. My parents love the chowder, and enjoyed it. I didn't care for the consistency. The shrimp cocktail was a fun retro flavor. Crispy celery, creamy sauce, and the shrimp was cooked well. We all ordered the sole almondine and substituted roasted potatoes for the rice. The potatoes were good, as was the accompanying asparagus. The fish was breaded, and topped with ground almonds which were warmed in butter. The bottom piece of fish was unfortunately soggy, and I prefer an almondine sauce when it's made with sliced almonds. It was a little flat tasting. But overall, the dish was good. The desserts were average. The sugar crust on my father's creme brûlée was too thick and flamed a little too hard. The slump was tasty, but the ratio of filling ro cake was unbalanced (too much cake). The cheesecake was a good texture and the rhubarb sauce was nicely tangy. Overall, a mice evening and worth $35 for a 3-course meal.

They also sell high quality pork, beef, chicken, and other things in the freezer like sausage, duck, cheese. They also have pretty nicely priced wines for sale, from low $10s and up. Whites, reds, and bubblies. Highly recommend you make the side-tour to this joint for salmon. A fish dressed to impress that will win you praises.
