    1 pound shrimp with sweet potato fries
    Ariana T.

    I decided to give this place another try and ordered a pound of shrimp with Boss Sauce (spicy), which comes with corn and sausage--a definite plus. I added potatoes, and also got sweet potato fries and wings. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The sauce was perfectly spicy and extra garlicky, the sweet potato fries were delicious, the wings were huge and super crispy, and the service was great and fast. I'm definitely coming back!

    3 pound of shrimp with little sauce
    Desiree V.

    Don't come here if you're a saucy girl. Been coming here for quite some time, recently noticed the sauce doesn't suffice the amount of shrimp I order. This last order, I asked if they can add enough sauce since prior times there isn't enough. As I picked up, I noticed the sauce was still not enough for the 3 pounds I ordered. I asked if I can buy extra and I was denied. Not sure why they limit you on the sauce. Only complaint with this spot.

    Family meal + fried calamari
    Jacqueline G.

    As a seafood boil fanatic, I have been wanting to taste test this place for some time now. Walking in it's not your average boiling crab / decorative ambience but don't let that fool you! The guy working cashier was super nice & they do have a lot of TVs around so it's perfect to watch live sports especially with all the drinks they have. Now as for the food, we ordered the Family Special #1 Company Cajun Sauce Extra Spicy lvl with a side of fried calamari. Now let me start by saying the amount of food we got was CRAZY they really stacked it up for a good price. The food itself was super delicious, well-cooked and seasoned. BE WARNED I loveee spicy things but the Extra Spicy had us all almost in tears!! I usually get that lvl at other seafood locations and can handle but this one was INSANEE. They really brought the heat so prepare yourselves on that one. I will DEF be going back but ordering the reg spicy one instead haha this is a good hidden seafood spot for sure!

    My family frequently purchases the Family Special which perfectly feeds our household of 5! I called the establishment to ask about the sausage used, because it's such a savory burst of flavors in my mouth! I also wanted to inform them that the overall tray was exceptionally spicy! We've never had a problem with the level of heat before. Let's put it this way, our meal was not an enjoyable experience after five minutes we were sweating so much, we called it quits!! We even ordered a side of The Boss extra spicy sauce. Ohhhh no! That was mind blowingly I was told a new cook was trained. I advised his hand needs not be so heavy with the spices! I hope he gets those measurements correct for the next time we order. Look at their drawing! They clearly warned us

    Fresh Crawfish with Boss sauce on the side! Yummy

    The boss sauce is amazing and the easy peel shrimp was delicious but the crab legs were pretty empty. Not very much meat unfortunately.

    What are the current hours during the week? It says here they open 4pm, is that still accurate?

    Yes

    How spicy is the medium?

    It's a little spicy even for me and I love spicy food. However, if you are not too much of a fan of spicy food I think the mild would be better. It's still a bit spicy but absolutely doable if. My husband does not like spicy foods but the many times… 

    I'm from Louisiana and I am always very disappointed by places claiming to be Cajun and Creole. Is it really Cajun or a watered down California version?

    Not watered down at all. They are well known for their great sauces especially the Cajun one. They also have Lemon Pepper, Butter Garlic, Butter Garlic with a Kick, and their Boss Sauce which is a mixture of all of them.

    When is their happy hour?

    Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday 4pm-9pm

    I can't believe I've lived in Sylmar for almost 6 years and somehow never noticed this little gem!…read more From the moment you walk in, it feels like you've escaped to a little beach town in Mexico. The atmosphere is relaxed, welcoming, and exactly where you want to be on a hot summer day. The seafood was incredibly fresh and refreshing. I ordered the campechana kora, and my husband had the Aguachiles, both were absolutely delicious and perfect for the heat. What really made the experience special was the staff. They were so kind, patient, and welcoming. My husband has been practicing his Spanish, and instead of making him feel self-conscious, they were incredibly encouraging and sweet with him. It made the whole meal feel even more authentic and enjoyable. Great food, wonderful service, and an atmosphere that makes you forget you're just minutes from home. I can't believe it took me this long to find Ceviches, but it definitely won't be six years before my next visit!

    I was looking for highly rated seafood restaurants on Yelp, and this restaurant was on the list…read more After reading the reviews, I got excited to give it a try. Parking was easy to find, which was a plus. The ambiance was casual, relaxed, and family-friendly. They have multiple TVs throughout the restaurant, and during my visit, they were showing a soccer game. I always like it when a restaurant broadcasts sporting events, even if it means the place sometimes gets very packed. I was really looking forward to trying their shrimp ceviche, but to my disappointment, they had run out by the time I arrived. I decided to go with my backup option instead: the camarones a la diabla. Camarones a la diabla is a dish consisting of shrimp cooked in a spicy red chile sauce. This restaurant also serves it with rice, toast, and a side of vegetables. As the name suggests, the shrimp are supposed to be spicy. As a spice enthusiast, I'm always on the lookout for the best spicy dishes. The shrimp were cooked well, but they had a sweet taste. It almost seemed as if they had used ketchup in the sauce to tone down the heat. I'm honestly not a fan of mixing sweet with spicy, at least when it comes to protein. The vegetables that came with the dish were soggy and flavorless. The rice was okay but could have been better. The toast was pretty good, it was buttery, garlicky, and crispy. Overall, this dish wasn't bad, but it also wasn't the best. The service during my visit was good. My server was attentive and helpful. He frequently stopped by to check if everything was okay. Overall, this experience didn't turn out exactly as I had expected, but it wasn't a bad experience by any means. I might return one day to try their shrimp ceviche. Ratings: Camarones a la diabla - 3/5 Ambiance - 4/5 Service - 4/5
