Was too good, so here is the aftermath..
Pachi H.

Such a well deserved meal after hiking the falls! The seafood tasted so fresh, cooked perfectly, and we loved the Garlic Sauce. We opted for Spicy and it truly was spicy! So if you cannot handle spice, definitely opt for milder seasoning. We split a combo between the three of us and it was just the perfect portion. The staff were also very attentive and so helpful. Definitely will have to come back when I'm in Portland again!

Bro let me flat out say, this place was was nasty it took me 3-5 business days to finish this meal. My meal was insanely unseasoned and undercooked. How do you under cook crawfish? ITS CRAWFISH !!! To my understanding they recently opened which I understand however some of those sauces need to be rehabilitated. I got the garlic butter option, absolutely not, I had to switch out to cajun which was laughable because it was just as tasteless. Like all meals I took it home and seasoned it and ate it

Came around 730pm on a Saturday and was seated right away. We were surprised it wasn't busy. Love that they offer reservations through Yelp. We did the AYCE and thought it was worth it. You can do as many rounds as you want and can choose 3 appetizers, 5 seafood options, 3 sides for each round. We did two rounds for 4 of us and were full! The spice options are on the lower end, we did fiery and it was not spicy at all coming from people that love spicy food. Loved the lemon pepper wings, the parm wings were interesting as it was more of a sauce than actual parm cheese. The garlic noodles and garlic fries were also a hit

We were looking for Dungeness crab during a trip to Portland and we were so happy to find this place! It's located in Bethany Village Shopping Center and there is plenty of parking. We went at 7 pm on a Tuesday night and there was no wait. The interior is clean and bright. They even have hand washing sinks in the seating area which is really convenient. This is a seafood boil with an Asian influence. They offer an AYCE option for big eaters. We got the Combo C and it was more than enough for 2 people. We also got the calamari which was crispy and really good. I ordered the garlic noodles which tasted so good with the shrimp! The crab was seasoned perfectly and so yummy. I know the seafood is the star, but I also enjoy the potatoes, sausage and corn. We'll definitely come back on our next visit!

The interior of this place is super nice and cute! We did the AYCE and it was nice that it was all one price, a little bit disappointing that the crab isn't a part of the AYCE. The wings were actually quite tasty as well and we ordered two orders of wings in addition to the two seafood boils we were able to get through! The sauces are relatively mild in flavor, we got medium on the old bay and it wasn't really very spicy. The garlic noodles could use some more flavor. The service was quick and friendly and we were able to ask for more gloves. Also, there is a sink to wash your hands in the restaurant and not in the restroom, which is super handy to have when you're eating seafood boil. Definitely would come back, I hope they continue the AYCE! Please add the crab!

Wow The Combo A

Love a good seafood boil so I had to find another one to try while visiting Portland. We ordered some garlic bread and calamari to start and some wow the crab combos. Garlic bread was great, but calamari just so so. Was also initially interested in their flavored lemonades but sadly not fresh fruits only juices added. Seafood boils were pretty good, but it's hard to find one that can beat my fav spot down in LA. Service was quick and friendly. Seems like a popular spot with locals. Great authentic flavors and big portions for the price. Happy we got to try it out!

Hannah G.

Overall this place is okay- I have nothing amazing to say, but it was okay. The flavor was eh, could have been better in my opinion. The service was also only okay, I'm sure it was difficult because it was only one person, but he definitely seemed like he didn't want to be there/acted accordingly. I'm glad I tried, but I don't know if I would recommend to others or come back unfortunately.

1lb of snow crab, garlic, mild.  Fabulous!
Dan N.

It's Friday Night Date Night with Wife N. Tonight we headed down the Cajun route with an informal dinner at Wow the Crab. We started with crab puffs and gyoza. Both were quite tasty--definitely house-made and perfectly prepared. Mains arrived. We did the "Get Down and Messy" (basically seafood by the pound), with a pound each of snow crab legs and crawfish. Each can be flavored with several choices and spicing from mild to wild. Her crab legs were in garlic butter, mild. I went cajun "hot" (3/4). Those crab legs were delicious, and a pound is a pretty decent amount. Helpfully, scissors and crab cracking tools and forks were at the table. My crawfish were okay. They really didn't have a lot of flavor infused into them, it was all the seasoning on the outside and in the plate. I'm kind of used to cajun hot being...hot. This was "Portland Hot," which is to say...isn't really. It was..."warm"...but really didn't leave much heat. I should have gone 4/4 on the spicing. I've had better crawfish boil at home. On the crab, a pound is great for an average eater. On the crawfish, there's a much higher shell-to-meat ratio, and I found myself still quite hungry after consuming the lot which was roughly 4 ounces of actual meat. Capped off with a Tonkotsu ramen which was entirely respectable. Apps: 4.5* Crawfish: 3* Crab: 5* Ramen: 3.5* Definitely going back, but I'll do the crab next time. There's plenty to choose from here.

I finally had their seafood boil. I got their garlic butter and $33 set. It had a good amount of clam, shrimp, muscles, it also had potatoes, sausages, and corn. The shellfish were nice, fatty and no sand. The shrimp were huge! The seasoning was good and was less salty than another restaurant. The potato and sausages were fine, the usual. The corn was good though, sweet and it soaked up all the flavors. I ordered take out so I was able to enjoy it at home and it was still very hot when I got home. I appreciated the double bagging inside a take out box to ensure that there wouldn't be any spills.

We wanted to have a crab and seafood dinner and Wow the Crab was conveniently close in Bethany Village. We enjoyed the Dungeness crab as part of the Wow The Combo C Dungness(1), Corns(2), Potato Chunks(2), Sausage(4) and plenty of shrimp. Good service, a generous portion which was plenty for two!

AYCE
Binh T.

There were 4 of us and we did AYCE. Mussels and clams were ok but crawfish wasn't that good. It's good they make it as you order for whichever flavor you want for each round. However the down side of that is the crawfish didn't have much flavor in it , so you really have to dip the crawfish into the sauce after peeled. Portion of crawfish for each round wasn't much though so if you really want only crawfish you need to ask them to just get crawfish only. For this time of year we were expecting frozen crawfish so overall it was ok. Spicy level was not that bad , if you like more on the spicy side then order more spicy. AYCE comes with complimentary appetizers so we got a couple items to try. Garlic noodles was not good. Wings were good. Crab puffs was just ok. I guess if you go as a group the AYCE price would be ok since each person can eat whatever seafood item/ appetizers as well. Customer service was great. Food came out fast too. I really like the interior design with having the washing sinks right by the tables so you can wash your hands without needing to get into a bathroom. Sink and tables were pretty clean too. If you live near by I would say give it a try. But hopefully when live crawfish season comes maybe we'll give it another try and I'll put in another review by then.

Great service, and everything came out pretty quick! Food is flavorful and everything is decently priced. I drove about 40 minutes for this, and it was definitely worth the drive - esp since I was craving a tasty seafood boil! The fries are a must get; super crispy and light!

Mia H.

I came here for dinner one day and had a great time. We had to wait a little bit, so I recommend making reservations if you can! The inside of the restaurant is bright and clean with lots of seating for parties of different sizes. Staff is very friendly. I made my own combo from their "Make it Messy" category and loved it. I was able to choose the different seafood, meats, and veggies that I wanted in my combo and the flavor and spice level. The food was flavorful and the seafood was plump. Had a great time and I think this is a pretty good spot for seafood boil!

We started with the family-size Smokey Roque salad. Everything tasted fresh, and the blue cheese dressing was flavorful without being overpowering. The homemade bread arrived warm and delicious with just a touch of salt, I could have eaten the entire loaf! For our entrées, we ordered the Spicy Sausage Rigatoni, Pork Ragu, Al Tartufo, and the pork chop which was the special for the day (forgot the name). I chose the Vongole, and it was out of this world! Pasta with clams is one of my favorite dishes, so I thought I knew what to expect, but this version was so much more flavorful. The herbs added wonderful flavor, while the hint of lemon enhanced the dish without overpowering it. Every clam was open, so none went to waste. When my plate arrived, was sure I would have leftovers to take home but I enjoyed it so much that I ate every bite including the pasta!! The restaurant's website says they use "fresh, high-quality ingredients sourced from local, sustainable, and organic farms," and they absolutely live up to that promise!! The reception area may seem small when you first walk in, but don't let that fool you. We sat in the dining area on the left, but the other side has a bar, additional tables, a small private dining room that seats about a dozen people, and another larger dining space. The restaurant feels cozy and inviting while still offering plenty of room. Alex, our server, was wonderful. When he learned that my brother and sister-in-law live nearby and had visited before, he took the time to note their names. It was a thoughtful touch that made the experience feel even more personal! We walked about 15 minutes to the restaurant. It was a fun way to begin and end the evening, and no one had to drive after enjoying wine and margaritas! Bethany's Table is worth supporting not only because it's a neighborhood bistro, but because they do an excellent job!! The atmosphere is welcoming, the food is beautifully prepared, and the fresh, locally sourced ingredients truly shine!! We'll definitely be back, sooner rather than later!!

It was nicely seasoned and not greasy. The lobster ravioli was tasty though the cream sauce was a little on the heavy side. We took the ravioli and focaccia back to our hotel.

But we decided to give it a try a little while back as it was it's time and we want to check out and be as completeist as possible with breweries in this area. The beer that Steve and I had was the Muddy Valley Oatmeal Stout. Now, I also tried their beer a lighter beer type at their McMinnville location and it was just okay... but this Oatmeal Stout I liked quite a bit more. So I suggest focusing in their dark beers. The flavor highlights in this beer are sweetness and Oatmeal. It is also smooth and creamy in body. For a Stout it isn't a very heavy beer and is on the light bodied side which sometimes you come across a Stout that is like that but it isn't something I'd call commonplace.

The other drinks in my pic are those my classmates got - ER and Cinderella margaritas. I tried some of the Cinderella margarita, which was tasty. Other drinks people got were the vitamin c (I think?) that came in buckets and mango chamoy margs, as well as a Moscow mule. The classmates who got the buckets said it tasted like juice. For my entree I had the shrimp tacos (4). Loved the pineapple salsa that came with it. They also came with beans, rice, sour cream and guac. I think others got tacos and enchilada, though I don't remember which ones. Some of the drinks are on the pricey side. Definitely need a DD or an uber/lyft since the drinks are strong!
