Had a great experience here! Sam was an awesome server--friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of. The food was really good, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the beer was cold and came out fast. Overall, great service and a great experience. I'll definitely be coming back! Thank you Sam for your great hospitality! read more

Good food and ambience! We haven't been here since before Covid so a few things changed. They require a card on file while dining (supposedly lots of dine and dashes before) and there's a 1% service fee. I thought they had combos before but all the seafood is by the lb. We were recommended not to take the drunken special sauce so we opted for all-3 which was perfect! We got snow crab legs, shrimp and clams with the corn, potatoes and sausage and were stuffed! Plenty of parking and bathrooms are clean! read more

The Drunken Crab - Menu - Seafood Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Food is okay, this place is overpriced and they are price gouging the crab, the shrimp they sell is very small and double what you would pay for at boiling crab. The bags come with minimal sauce and they charge 5$ extra for extra sauce. Service is not great either, they treat their guests like CRIMINALS and make you put down your ID or credit card for a pound of shrimp, not the ambiance i'm going for. For the price you pay i'd expect better service and cleaner facilities. The bathroom floor was sticky and it smelled horrible. read more

The food was amazing. Came here for a birthday dinner and our server Mache or Machete was an absolute delight and perfectly complimented my evening. I would not be giving 5 stars if it weren't for him. Thank you! read more

My favorite shrimp place in the SFV! Hands down. The decor is so cute. They have plenty of TVs and a full bar. We came during lunch right when it opened. The gentleman at the host desk informed us about their card policy. Which means you either need to leave your ID or a credit/-debit card before you can order your food. This is the first time I've encountered this at any restaurant but I can only imagine the amount of "dine and dashers" they have had to deal with before implementing this rule....soooo I'm not mad at it. It was pretty quiet. Except for the music that was playing in the background. The music was not too loud, which I appreciated very much. Our server's name was Jaclyn. She was very nice. Very professional. Non wonder she was one of the employees of the month. ;) My daughter and I ordered the head on shrimp. With all three sauces, mild. We also ordered calamari and a side of jasmine rice. I've ordered the calamari before. And it's always been great, but today the calamari was very tiny. Good flavor but I felt the portion was pretty small considering the price. I also enjoyed the dipping sauce that came with it very much. Shrimp was cooked to perfection not overcooked at all. The sauce was finger licking good with the perfect amount of spice. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. I will continue to make The Drunken crab My Cajun shrimp restaurant of choice. read more

All the workers were super sweet & helpful. The wait is a bit long if you go during rush hour but honestly not more than 20 min & they have seats for you to wait comfortably which I loved. Its sea food so it's definitely pricey. It's a really fun and unique experience & I do think everyone needs to try it at least once! They have different flavors & spicyness levels for everyone to choose from so you'll be able to find a combo that works for you. read more

Can't beat a great seafood boil, and this spot just can't be beat. They got your seafood in a bag with whatever choices you want to add. Pick your sauce and your spice level. I recommend making the meal Louisiana style because it adds some goodies into the bag, like corn and sausages, and getting their house sauce. *licks finger*; I can literally taste it right now. Also they got beer and margaritas to complement your meal. They also got some great appetizers; the calamari is a good choice, but my favorite are the wings. Let me tell you, boy, these are better than that local chain down the street, Stopwing? You know what I mean. These wings smack hard! I love the whole theme and atmosphere here; everyone is so nice, and the tables are covered in a white paper-type of thing that the kids can draw on. They are giving crayons, and they go crazy. Good kids menu as well; they do have non-seafood options for them like nuggets and mac and cheese. Wait times can be a pain, though, and they do have this weird policy that they must hold a credit card. Guess too many dine-and-dashers have occurred here. It's okay, not a big deal, and they let you use whatever card you want at the end. I came for my birthday, and they gave me ice cream with a candle and a crab decoration; it was kind. Our server was really nice. Recommend this spot to anyone looking for a good seafood boil place. read more

Love coming to the drunken crab, I stop here probably 2 times a month when in the valley I drive from the AV which is 60 miles away for this deliciousness. Our server Edwin went above and beyond and i must say, I am very impressed on how attentive and knowledgeable he is. he is extremely helpful. We ordered the peeled shrimp Louisiana style all 3 sauces , calamari, fish and chips and strips for my kiddo. Everything came out so hot and fresh. the sauce is one of the best! I appreciate that it is not runny at all. The fish and chips were fried to perfection. Overall best place for seafood and will be back soon read more

Friendly staff. Amazing seafood choices that knock your socks off. I got the Cajun Dungeness crab and the garlic shrimp with the add ins and a half dozen oysters (nice, fresh, and briny). It was all amazing! The manager, Damien, was nice enough to comp me an ice cream for Father's Day! Only thing I'd say is how about some English on the TV. And get ready to spend a fortune. read more

I honestly haven't experienced a server like him in way too long. The food was great and we will definitely be coming back. Thank You Mache!!!! read more

Tried this place for the first time recently, and really enjoyed the food and overall experience. Daniel was an excellent server, provided great service, and I appreciated his attentiveness. The restaurant had a short wait time, the space wasn't overly crowded, and the environment was casual. This is a seafood spot I'd recommend to anyone looking for seafood boil in the 818 and personally I enjoyed it more than the crabby crab, both in terms of flavor and quality. Looking forward to my next visit read more

I'm a regular here, so it might seem like I'm biased! But the truth is.. when you have amazing service, delicious food and a hype environment, why wouldn't you want to keep coming?! The bartender Manny was such a great vibe! Checked up on me often and took care of everything in a timely manner. The manager was polite and brought me my clams. I sat at the bar today. Tvs were on ESPN 2 and I enjoyed every minute of my meal! Thanks TDC for always going above and beyond! 2nd to none! read more

The place is great overall -- good food, good atmosphere, and the customer service has usually been excellent. I've had a server named Omar a few times, and in the past he was great. However, the past two visits being served by him have been disappointing. After I leave a custom tip based on the service received, I've noticed him walking away, looking at the merchant receipt, and nodding his head in an upset way both times. That behavior feels disrespectful. I always tip fairly, and if a tip isn't considered good enough for the level of service provided, it makes me not want to return. I hope this gets addressed because the restaurant itself is great. read more

The Drunken Crab - Best waiter there. Hands down. - Seafood Near Me - North Hollywood, California

Watch your receipts! Hidden fees everywhere. I understand inflation, but this restaurant is taking it too far. The food quality has dipped (smaller shrimp), yet the prices are higher than ever. Most insulting are the new hidden fees: they now charge you for using a credit card AND a separate fee just to dine in. After paying for the meal, a tip, and multiple surcharges, it's just not worth it anymore. New management or not, they've lost a regular customer. read more

The Drunken Crab - So I don't forget how serves us ! - Seafood Near Me - North Hollywood, California

I had my first visit to The Drunken Crab in North Hollywood, and it was nothing short of amazing! I ordered a pound of the Dungeness crab Louisiana style, paired with a refreshing mojito and a side of sourdough bread. The flavors were incredible, and the food exceeded all my expectations. the sausage the two corn and the two eggs were just chefs kiss!! What truly made the experience unforgettable was our server, Mache. From the moment we were seated, he was attentive, accommodating, and genuinely kind. His warm demeanor and exceptional service elevated our dining experience. It's evident that Mache is a dedicated and hardworking individual who takes pride in ensuring guests have a memorable time. If you're planning a visit to The Drunken Crab, I highly recommend requesting Mache as your server. His outstanding service truly sets the bar high. Thank you, Mache, for making our first visit so special! read more

Drunken Crab is a solid pick for seafood lovers, but head-on shrimp is the way to go -- the peeled ones just don't have the same flavor. If you're not ready for the full seafood boil experience, this might not be for you. The Cajun fries are a great appetizer, and the fried shrimp combo is perfect for picky eaters. The wait times can be long on weekends, and you have to be there in person to join the waitlist. But once you're seated, the food comes out fast. Overall, great flavors and fast service once you're in! read more
