Voodoo Crab in Centereach is an absolute seafood party from the moment you walk through the door. The energy hits you right away loud fun colorful and buzzing with that "you're about to eat something amazing" kind of vibe. The ambience is a perfect mix of modern seafood house and lively bar scene with bright neon touches cool décor and music that keeps everything feeling upbeat. It's the kind of place where you instantly know you're going to have a good time. The service here was pretty good. Not perfect but definitely friendly and helpful whenever we needed something. The staff kept things moving even though the restaurant was packed and they were always quick with recommendations and explanations for anyone new to the whole boil bag experience. There were a couple of moments where things took a bit longer than expected but the team always made up for it with great attitudes and genuine effort. Overall it added to the laid back fun vibe rather than taking away from it. Now the food is where Voodoo Crab absolutely shines. If you're a seafood lover you're going to feel like you found treasure. The boil bags are unreal stuffed with juicy shrimp tender crab legs mussels corn potatoes and all the buttery saucy goodness you could ever ask for. The Voodoo sauce is the clear winner spicy savory and addictive without overpowering the seafood. Every bite is messy delicious and worth wearing a bib for. The fried baskets were just as great crispy seasoned perfectly and definitely sharable. And the appetizers hit the spot too especially the calamari and hush puppies. The drink menu is a whole adventure by itself. Creative cocktails big flavors and the kind of drinks that make you say "ok maybe I'll have just one more." They pair perfectly with the bold seafood flavors and help keep the whole night fun and lively. What really makes Voodoo Crab special is the entire experience. It's not just eating dinner it's cracking shells laughing getting messy and having a blast with the people you're with. The vibe the food and the atmosphere all come together to make it unforgettable. It's perfect for birthdays date nights family dinners or just when you want something different and exciting. Voodoo Crab easily earns five stars. Great food fun ambience friendly staff and a dining experience that's anything but boring. If you haven't tried it yet grab some gloves dive into a boil bag and thank yourself later. read more

This place is top notch,from the bar tender Valentine to the great food I definitely recommend this place.Cant wait to go back again

Came back finally to take my nieces as they love seafood and we had a blast. Was it a bit crazy with 3 kids and only 2 adult, yes! But our server was amazing and she helped whenever she could (she told us she had 2 year old twins herself...God Bless). This is a such a fun treat. We just opted for crab legs and lots of corn, because the kids love corn. We got the voodoo sauce in the side for the adults. The babes had the best time with the bibs, gloves, pouch drinks and throwing the garbage in the bucket. Finally I don't know whose Spotify playlist was on, but the tunes were banging. It definitely felt like summer here! read more

If I can give it 3.5 stars I would. We have dined at the other restaurants in the same shopping center and wanted to try this one. We took advantage of their lunch special which was a good value. There is plenty of parking available. We each had a different appetizer so we can all share and they were very good. We each had a different entree. I had ordered the crispy Fish Po Boy, and realized after I bit into it and looking underneath the bun I was given the Shrimp Po Boy and there was no tartar sauce. Since we were pressed for time, I ate it and it was good. One had the smoked brisket sandwich which they liked. The other had the BBQ pork ribs sandwich which was ok. It didn't have much flavor and lacked sauce. When the receipt came, it just showed that we ordered from the lunch menu. Service was ok. There is booth, table and bar seating available. I still want to try the Crispy Fish Po Boy so we will be returning. read more

Had an order for pickup. The woman who answered the phone got the order wrong. When I got there to pick it up the man who gave me the order was very rude. As I was waiting to pay a Family came in and were told by the hostess that they couldn't accommodate them. (an infant and 3 children. The manager was right there and said the same thing. The food was not even warm and was not good. Will not be going back. read more

Ordered and shared several appetizers of baked clams, calamari and kobe sliders. Had their seafood bisque which had shrimp and scallops in it. For my main entree I had the marinated ribeye steak which was tender and juicy. Hubby had their pasta jambalaya and enjoyed it. Our son had their pan seared salmon which had a nice crisp exterior. Delicious meal overall and great service. Continuously refilled our water glasses. read more

Let me just say this place lives up to the hype. The menu is MORE than just boils. Appetizers had good options - mussels, wings & things. The adult juice boxes cracked me up. Out of the 4 at my table I was the only one to not get a boil bag. I got the jambalaya pasta with FIRE sauce. Fantastic. read more

If you like seafood boils, or big chicken wing fan..WOW eat here! First time here. The greeting, service and food were all great! After hearing so many good things for so long, we happened to be in area and made reservations for 2 the night before Mother's Day. Astonishing how great the wings were. Just not high expectations for a seafood joint, but seriously top of the line. Huge, juicy, crispy and incredible flavor. We had honey sesame something or other..just fantastic! Baked clams were delicious as well. My boil was to die for. Crab legs, corn and potato In garlic butter with a little head. Practically licked the plate clean. Food was fantastic. Service was great. It's casual and fun but music a little loud for my taste. Absolutely wouldn't stop me from coming back. Can't wait for next time. And super nice unexpected surprise, for a free flower and #1 Mom t shirt for coming. read more

Ordered apps from happy hour menu calamari rubbery mussels were fishy tasting and popcorn shrimp not worth it at all. Service was terrible. Bartender didn't come to ask if we needed anything or another drink or anything else from menu. We ordered dessert he got it wrong and we waited because we were sharing he didn't come with extra spoons like we asked so we actually used straws until we got his attention. Disappointing read more

I've heard a lot of good things about Voodoo Crab. Being in the area. I decided to check it out. I ordered the Boil. Went with the Crawfish and Whole Lobster. For the sauce I selected the Voodoo Experience. Man, this dish was so delicious! That Voodoo sauce is a little spicy and so good! The lobster was on point! As someone who never had crawfish before, I thought it was good, but might skip it the next time. Their El Diablo drink served in a pouch was awesome! read more

We dined on one of those mild Friday October evenings for a birthday celebration. All 5 of us were so hot, I finally waved down the Manager who said to me - "I'm not hot and I am walking around." -Restaurant Manager He turned up the ceiling fans to top speed so the hot air would move quicker. DID NOT solve the issue. There was a recent change in management and the previous Manager, Charles, was extremely accommodating and is very missed. : ( read more

I have been waiting for a concept like this to hit Long Island. This reminds me of Florida but only better! The staff is awesome. The bartender Valentine is the front line man! Makes great punch's and knows the menu inside out. Went in yesterday and for a Monday the place was humming. I had snow crab with headless shrimp and dozen blue point oysters on half shell which were sleeping in the Great South Bay earlier Monday morning. The prices are very fair. Know this is not just a place they throw all together, this place cooks your items to order and their different flavored boils, allow you to adjust the heat level on all of them. I found that eating the boil out of the bag keeps you neat. You'll be slathering your fingers with their buttery and aromatic sauces. The place including restrooms is immaculate. Will be making this place a regular stop. read more

Excellent service, clean surroundings , friendly staff , the food was delicious, I would definitely go back and bring my friends !!!

I don't think I've ever been told that a restaurant can't give me a refill of my soda 45 minutes before they close. The reason of "the machine was turned off" is typical of staff closing down while being open because they don't want to be there. They did a good job of passing their customer service vibe onto me though, as I no longer wanted to be there when they couldn't give me a refill of a Pepsi. Furthering that feeling were the two employees that I'm guessing were off shift drinking fresh alcoholic beverages in the booth across from our table. I guess I was drinking the wrong drink. Leaving my wife's take home box of leftover wings open when they threw it in the bag was the icing on the cake. If it wasn't for the food being good, I would never consider coming back to this restaurant. As it is, I probably will never return to this location, as I'd rather travel an hour for good service than 15 minutes to receive this treatment. read more

My mom and I love a good seafood boil. Voodoo is def a go to for us at this point. They had a summer special which includes everything we would want in our boil crab legs, shrimp, potato, corn, and the signature sauce. The medium heat is the perfect level of spice. They even have little pouch bag drinks which are so tasty. My favorite thing about this place besides the food is the music selection. read more

First time at this location... My boyfriend and I decided to venture off to this location on a Friday night. We've been to Massapequa location, so we knew what to expect. I also only took a picture of our appetizer as we dug right in to our entrees as soon as they came out. We got here a little early, about 5pm. Happy hour was still going on. We ordered some charbroiled oysters. An order comes with 6. They were delicious! Still thinking about them now. For my boil I got head off shrimp and crab legs in the voodoo experience medium spice sauce. SOOO YUMMY! My boyfriend ordered crawfish and tiger shrimp for his boil also in the voodoo experience medium spice sauce. Yummy as well! We both agreed that this location's medium is definitely more spicy than Massapequa's medium. After we finished our boils, we were both still a little hungry. After looking at the dessert menu nothing really caught our interest. It was still happy hour so we ordered another round of charbroiled oysters and popcorn shrimp. Oysters were just as good as the first round and the popcorn shrimp had a very light batter and was severed with a chipotle type dipping sauce. Service was excellent. I don't recall our waiter's name, but he provided great service! Food and service *****! read more

Gonna be honest, everything from atmosphere, customer service, and food/ drink were all more than satisfactory & an excellent first experience for Caribbean Food. The only thing that was a bit sus was the gate keeping of the cornbread. At first, I had asked if it was on the menu, and was told no, then I saw some brisket special that included cornbread, the fabled cornbread indeed existed, and let me tell you, it was worth the effort. Also, with the lunch special we got clam chowder I unexpected with it, and it was phenomenal, and I am not a clam chowder guy. Would give 10/5 if possible, for sure worth a try & I will be back! read more

Always excellent at happy hour! Prices - food -service And bartender rock ! A plus plus!

last night my partner and I went to voodoo on a date night. While looking at the menu I saw they had king crab, and i was super happy. The waitress comes and tells me that it is $95lb. which is incredibly insane knowing other seafood restaurants is no where near that price. so due to the price shock i decided to go to the other route and order crab fried rice. and i have never tasted anything so disgusting. the fried rice smelled and tasted like the spoiled sea. I immediately had to spit it out, to the point it ruined my appetite of eating, i literally sat there and waited till my partner finished eating because i couldnt take a bite. Come to this morning i woke up throwing up for 4 hours, and the only thing i had was voodoo crab food yesterday. i will not be coming back. read more

Upon entering the music was playing and that always helps me out with my dinning experience. The hostess was super nice and there was no wait time to be seated. We ordered our food and the wait time was not long at all. The catfish was so flavorful as well and the crab legs and the seasoning. The popcorn shrimp had the best batter and was lightly fried. If I am on Long Island and in the Centereach area I would definitely take another trip over to Voodoo Crab. read more

Super fun, yummy food, great service, we really enjoyed ourselves! Our ONLY criticism is it is SO loud, we were literally screaming at each other to be heard. We started off with the Char-broiled Oysters. OMG, so tender, fresh and yummy with a lovely butter/crumb mixture. We had 3 Boils: 2 Tiger Shrimp; one with garlic butter, one with Voodoo Experience and Sausage. Both were delicious, shrimp perfectly cooked, potato creamy and tender, corn was sweet and fresh. Both sauces were YUMMY! Crab Fried Rice: Was fine. My least favorite. The crab tasted like it was from the can, but the person who ordered it liked it. Side of collard greens: these were SO good. I've had collard greens so many times that were so overworked and mushy. These had texture, were seasoned just enough and super yummy. For dessert we shared the bourbon bread pudding. Meh. This was our least favorite part of the meal. The bread pudding was mushing and too sweet, pretzels had a little crunch and salt but ok. Drinks were fab, but the margaritas were a bit small in size. All in all, we really enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be read more

Love love love the salmon dinner and the branzino! Go early get busy! And always great when the oysters are on sale for happy hour!

Love the vibe of this place! The food and service are also excellent as well. I've been wanting to try this place for a while after hearing so much buzz about it. Definitely worth it for sure! They play great music and the place just feels exciting and vibrant. The sauce they provide for the seafood is beyond good! I had the crab leg boil, clam chowder soup and a frozen voodoo adult caprisun pouch. Everything was excellent except for the soup. The soup was cold when I received it which really disappointed me. Also, I feel that for the price they should include one additional crab leg. One cluster just seems like a rip off for $18.00. read more

Voodoo Crab is a home run! What a gem in Suffolk County. Outstanding service and food/drinks. Don't miss happy hour when the cocktails and appetizers are offered at a special price. We had the mussels in white wine sauce- outstanding! The Voodoo Wings are a must order... as a Korean person I can say better than Bonchon Chicken. We ordered enough crab legs, sausage, and shrimp to share. Served on a tray with potatoes and corn marinated in a devine garlic butter sauce. Our Waitress, Kellee, was friendly, patient and quick to clean our table even after dear mom spilled a glass of water. Sorry! They provide gloves, wipes, bibs and lots of napkins because it's messy but so worth it! This is our go to crab place now! read more

Great staff. Walked in without a reservation and was welcomed with open arms. The manager/hostess(she wore both hats) was the bomb.

Food was good but the service is what made the difference for me. read more
