I’ve been eating a lot of crab legs lately all over orange county and this place had the best snow crab legs. The butter garlic seasoning is amazing. The servers are attentive. Thank you!

Tried to go eat , Monday night , place was empty , they were all out of oysters , Manila clams and other items, I was by myself - tried to order the AYCE , wanted to start off with 1lb of crawfish and 1 lbs of peeled shrimp ; was told basically can't eat alone from the AYCE menu . Thanks for nothing , guess eating alone is forbidden now

Great place. This is definitely a hidden gem. Every time I go there is no wait. Menu is easy to navigate. Anybody saying otherwise lacks the common sense. Service is great as well. Seafood boil is more "orangey" which I love.

This place sucks, I got a pound of shrimp and they were super stingy with the sauce and the shrimp were severely over cooked. This made it extremely difficult to separate the shrimp from the shell. Needless to say I got very little shrimp to eat since about 60% disintegrated from being over cooked. DO NOT TRY THIS PLACE ! SAVE YOUR MONEY!

Went there yesterday and they are empty. We (2 PEOPLE) are the only customers. Did not know why because it's Friday evening. We ordered 2 AYCE Premium. We got 1lb crawfish, shrimp, 2 different kind of clams, corn, mushroom, potatos. It's also AYCE appetizers. The garlic noodles are good, wings are dry, and oysters are very bad. Oysters are $1.50/each during happy hour, but it tasted like been bought for days and in the last 6 7 years this is the worst oyster I ever tasted. The crawfish overall tasted ok, but it got very salty at the end. I believed I got too much clams that is soaked in the sauce, and it was super salty. Crawfish is half frozen half fresh. Total price is $93.xx, which included tax and for the first time ever in my life heard of AYCE Revenue Tax of 16% which in my case is $12. Now I understand why the restaurant is empty because the charges are ridiculous. The fee does not count as Tip/Gratuity. The staff should have let us know ahead. I feel bad but end up I did not leave any tip because of dissapointment. Besides, we only ordered 1 round of AYCE, it was toi salty that we couldnt finish, so we kindly ask for togo box, but they cant provide. We know AYCE do not give out togo box, but we really do not want to waste the food. We did not over-ordered. That's what we usually ordered at the other places.I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE. THERE ARE BETTER PLACES WITH CHEAPER PRICE AND YOU CAN TOGO LEFTOVERS. AND MOST IMPORTANT NO RIDICULOUS TAX/FEE.

Great spot for your Creole Seafood cravings! The employees were very kind and helpful. They explained everything to us since it was our first time and they would check in on us to make sure everything was great. I will definitely be back!Thanks for the great experience and awesome food!
Their signature sauce is pretty salty. Particularly, the customer service was apparently based on how they judge their customers. I came there without noticing about searching price through a QR code until I asked them. The waitress often took care of all other tables by asking frequently how it was going, except mine. I felt like I was ignored. Service with a sulk after all. The waitress was rude to me when she saw low tip as well. Never come back.

Cajun Crawfish provided exactly what I was hoping. Fresh seafood, boiled with spices and lots of sauce. What more could you want! Also, great happy hour options/prices.Upon entering, you cant help but notice the conveniently placed sinks for after your meal, which I greatly appreciated. Throughout the evening, our waitress, Jamie, showed exceptional kindness and generosity, ensuring that my lifelong friends and I had a memorable time reconnecting. It goes without saying that I will absolutely return to wonderful place again. ?

Went here on a Saturday evening. Their automated phone attendant actually has useful information on it. The restaurant is an odd layout and this digital menu they have you scan is ridiculous. Difficult to navigate and the prices are on a different page.We ordered catfish, a dozen premium oysters, cajun fries, corn, carrots and celery and some drinks. Carrots and celery came first, they were fine, the ranch is a bit disappointing but at least the veggies were ok. Then came the cajun fries, these were a complete disaster. I ate one fry and it was super salty. So I tried to eat another one from another area, same thing. We tried our best to eat these fries but probably would have left on a stretcher. I asked the server to swap them out because these were obviously screwed up and she refused. I just asked for a $2 order of fries because they spilled all the cajun seasoning on my fries and made them too salty but they wouldn't oblige saying we ate some of them, we didn't want to send it back initially. Catfish comes out and fish was a bit stinky so we didn't eat most of it and the fries that came with it were so well done they were basically dry as chips. We ate them all because we were hungry and the oysters didn't come out yet. OK, there's a long wait for the oysters, their kitchen seems understaffed and it took probably 25 minutes for the oysters to come out since the time we ordered them. While we wait, the table next to us had something removed from the bill because something isn't going right. The premium oysters were actually ok since they didn't have to do anything but open them it's hard for them to screw it up.In the end, we get the bill it still has the corn on it which we never got, luckily my wife caught it. Bill is over $90 which isn't cheap but considering they wouldn't even give us fries to fix that major blunder with the cajun fries it was the last insult from this establishment. Very subpar food with terrible service, I wanted to like this place but I can't give it more than 1 star.

Was a bit skeptical trying this place as it was vacant. There's no paper menu-typical scan on the phone; however, the menu is very difficult to navigate. There's no price on the digital menu...and there's very little detailed. We decided to order the "combo 1" which is 2lbs of crawfish, corn, potatoes and sausages. We also asked for an additional 1lb but the waitress encourages us to purchase the "happy hour special" 2lb for $25. We assumed it's cheaper since it's "happy hours". She confirmed the crawfish were live and fresh. We ended up purchasing three happy hour special-total 6lbs-the flavor were Cajun trio and creole. Also purchased the BBQ wings.The sauces were alright-nothing spectacular for the crawfish-there's better places around Westminster area. Wings - I would never have ordered-there's definitely BBQ but it's like someone just slap a bunch of it on top...Costco is better.Here comes the finale...the bill. Although she confirmed the "happy hours" was $25 for 2lbs of live crawfish, potatoes, corn, and sausages...the bill did not reflect it. It's $25 for "the Basel and $4 for each lb of crawfish so in total we paid $33 for the 2lbs. I'm not sure what the "combo 1" price is to compare but seems like it's the same price. When we confronted her about the price difference from what she said to the bill and the additional $8 on top of the $25, she kept repeating "let me show you the iPad" and "$25 is just the base". So the sauce cost $25? You work at this place, just explain it, there's no need to show me on the iPad...you should know the price or post it on the menu. Be transparent with the cost. Pretty much we were deceived-even if you are desperate for customer, have some integrity. Never coming back. No wonder they had no customers and the ones that arrived after us were the owners' friends. We saw him coming out of the kitchen and sitting to chat.
