The first time here. There was a waiting list when we got here at 12:40pm. Wait was not that long. We ordered three pound of shrimp with the whole sha-bang sauce, corn and potatoes. Oh my god. The sauce was good. Remember to dip the seafood into the lemon-salt. It takes the seafood the other level. The fried calamari and fries were great too. Overall it was a great experience.

Nice place! The shrimps are delicious. The staff is very nice and every single staff member will care about you and your experience in Boiling Crab. I love that refills are for free, because most of the restaurants put the price for it in Santa Ana. I am usually making a sauce at home, which is garlic+mayo+soy sauce (sounds disgusting but it isnt!) for shrimps.

So, I was so hungry I forgot to add pictures of my actual food! This is a great counter- service restaurant that is fast when you need something good but quick.

I just visited this place for the first time with my wife and at first I was surprised by the long wait… However we decided to stay and we did not regret our choice, the food was amazing and the service was something else; we will be definitely coming back.

If you order fried foods or baskets they come out of the kitchen at different times. Fries came after we were finished eating. Food was good tho.

Met some friends for an early dinner on a Sunday. We arrived at 4 and we placed on the wait list which was 2.5 hours☹️. If you’re going to eat here get here as early as possible or have one person get there to put their name on the list and then everyone shows up around the time they quoted. Our wait time ended up being 30 min less than quoted. They will only seat if your whole party is there. They do seat a lot of large groups. The place is clean and there’s lots of people moving around, it’s a pretty well oiled machine. Our server pulled up with a cart that had the menu and bibs, napkins, lemons, seasoning and ketchup. We started with some Cajun wings, which were surprisingly pretty good. No batter just seasoned and fried. I ordered chicken strips and fries basket. It was typical but the lemon pepper fries were good. I’m glad the strips weren’t over cooked and my friends ordered shrimp and mussels then they added eggs. They said it was seasoned well and tasted very good.
