For anyone who loves cajun style seafood, this is the place! We ordered the Seafood Boil Bag and it was exceptional. We love Cajun style seafood and this was easily the best one we have tried in years. I highly recommend this place.
We also tried the Pho, and again, it was perfect. The portions are huge, enough for 2-3 people.
If you want great seafood and a nice clean environment, I highly recommend Crab it while it’s hot.

If you’re craving amazing seafood in Porterville, this is the spot. The food comes out hot, fresh, and full of flavor every single time. The seasoning is perfect — not too salty, just the right amount of spice — and you can tell everything is made with care. The crab, shrimp, and corn are always juicy and perfectly cooked, and the garlic butter sauce is seriously addicting!
The staff is super friendly and quick, and the restaurant has a fun, laid-back vibe that makes it great for both family dinners and hangouts with friends. You can tell they really take pride in their service and food quality.
Whether you’re a seafood lover or just trying something new, Crab It While It’s Hot is a must-visit. Definitely one of Porterville’s best spots — 10/10 recommend!

I Honestly tried to like this place but have been disappointed both times. First was a boil that had waaaaay over cooked shrimp. I’m not a seasoning snob so that was fine. Next I dined in and had the pho. It had so much ginger I couldn’t enjoy it. The lobster tail again, waaaaaaaaaay over cooked. Didn’t eat it. Waste of good money. To top it all off the place stinks like dirty mop water from a bathroom. Sad, please do better, I want this to succeed

Bro… Porterville got blessed with Crab It While It’s Hot, and I swear this place is dangerous — because once you try it, NOTHING else is gonna compare. This is the kind of seafood boil that has you sitting there shaking your head like, “Ain’t no way this is THIS good.”
The flavor? INSANE.
The portions? Massive.
The price? Honestly disrespectful for how fire the food is.
The seasoning hits so perfectly that you start licking your fingers BEFORE you’re even done eating. And the customer service? Straight vibes. They’re friendly, fast, and make you feel like you’ve been coming there your whole life.
Shrimp? Smacks.
Crab? Smacks.
The whole boil bag? KO combo.
If you’re in Porterville and not eating here, you’re playing yourself. This is easily the most flavorful, best-priced, and most addicting seafood boil around. After one visit you’ll be plotting your next one like a side quest.
Crab It While It’s Hot is THAT spot. Don’t sleep — go get your bag and thank me later.

Do not get the pho w/ rib. Absolutely disgusting. I got this to go. No flavor at all ! I got this to go and I can’t even get into how horrible it was. I would def take pho off the menu and stick to the food boil.
