Food, service and atmosphere were absolutely phenomenal. Had a great time especially with it being my first time. Even forgot to take pictures. Only down side is the cost but that’s the price you pay for a great seafood meal. Would come again but probably not often. Maybe for a once in while treat or a special occasion. 2 people cost us about $225+ before tip.
I liked the food, but I believe it was way overpriced and portions were disappointingly smaller than they should have been for what was charged. Service was OK. I won't be returning.

A really great seafood/Mexican restaurant in a semi-secluded lot. Glad to find a new seafood boil restaurant in Thousand Oaks. Saves me the drive go Calabasas or Ventura.I ordered the shrimp, $16.99/lb which is pretty standard, & it was really good. Being a fan of spicy food, I found the medium to be hot enough to enjoy but not too spicy at the same time.The menu is a collab of both Southern seafood boil & Mexican food. So you get the best of both worlds.I hope to see this restaurant stick around & think it should be a go-to on any foodies list.

Shrimp had a good flavor, but the lemon lime pepper seasoning was way too salty & $3.99 for an iced tea is high, IMO. We would probably not recommend to friends/family & not visit again.The restaurant was very cold inside, we had to keep our jackets on the whole time we were eating.

The food is delicious but the pricing is astronomical. It says market value on the menu but that’s not correct. I paid over $60 for a lb of snow crab legs and they’re only $10 a lb market value. Like I said, the food is delicious but I don’t feel you get your moneys worth.

We tried several dishes. We did not like the oyster on the half shell at all, but have enjoyed them many times before at other restaurants. They weren't bad but they weren't good. Really, there was no flavor one way or the other but not a fresh-from-the-sea flavor.The rest of the dishes were seasoned with medium heat, which was not bad but very oily, and the seasoning was like paste.Several of the mussels served were closed. The shrimp and crawdads were good, though also very oily. The lobster was very tough so maybe a bit overcooked.
