I went for the 1st time last week on a Thursdays. It wasn't packed at all and the service was great. The selection was 4 styles... but you can still make it your own. It was a little pricey for 2 ppl we both got soups, drinks and 2 pounds of shrimp and withtip I spent $60 for my party 120 total. I do recommend getting just 1 pound of your own bag with the items.

I went with a friend and we had high expectations but was sadly disappointed due to the quality of the food and a little bit of... the service. We both ordered the special pasta dishes from the menu which looked good but wasn't expecting it to be present onpaper plates and given plastic utensils. The food was oily, slightly blaned, and lightweight looked upappetizing. Then gave ustiny Togo boxes that barely fit our dishes in and I had to walk up to give them my check and pay. The only thing that was decentwas the fried calamari and the somewhat decent service from a few of the servers. Read more
First time seeing this place. I'm in hotel right across the street. I ordered one pound of snow crab to go. I wasn't that... impressed when I first pulled the plastic bag out of the paper bag. But then I ripped open the plastic bag and the aroma hit me.(they also give you the big wax paper sheet folded up in your bag. They put those on the table in the restaurant I'm guessing,to avoid a mess. Smooth move I must say. Lol anyway, bottom line, it was amazing. I loved it. I only intended on eating half andsaving a bit for later. That didn't work out. I ate every bit of it. It was so good. It comes with a small red potatoe and corncob all drenched in that tasty sauce. I got the "popular" sauce, they said (a mix of all 3, garlic butter and 2 others) and askfor medium heat (spiciness). I really love spicy food so I can handle heat, but recommend not going above medium. It's prettyspicy but not so much that you don't thoroughly enjoy the flavor. If you get it togo make sure you have something to crack theshell with. They only gave me a weak plastic fork and knife set. Any good pair of scissors works just fine. ???? Read more
This is a great crawfish place with many similar restaurants in Orange County. The price and the food selections are similar to... others but the quality if crawfish and services are great. There not many parking spaces right in front of the restaurant butyou can park at another parking lot behind and walk over. Read more
Took my sister out to eat. Its my job to review though so I did both... here is my review on "The Wild Crab." First off... I... came in and the place looked stetchy; Graffiti everywhere! And not any good kind either. I'm not sure if the place gotvandalized or if they wanted to try something different. There is no greeter, you just walk in and sign up. Wait was relativelyshort considering the place was packed. The tables are covered with wax paper and everything is dumped on there. Our waiter wasnice and took our order quickly. The environment was dim and noisy, but conversations can still be heard. We ordered Crawfishand Shrimp mild hot and a side of medium spice to try it. (Side note, none where spicy at all for my taste.) They bring they inbags with potato and sausage bits in them, a side of salt mixed with pepper and limes. I DID NOT LIKE THE QUALITY OF SHRIMP. Theshrimp looked like you could go to any street cover market and buy them. They had a bland taste and small line of gunkthroughout their spine...... if you know shrimp.. you know what that is. The crawfish (not a fan) was tasteless and could havebeen better. Out of 10 i would gice the food a solid 7. The only thing i really liked was the potato sausage and corn bits inthe mix. Wouldn't go back to this place personally. There are WAY better spots even though they may be more expensive. I alwayslive by, you get what you pay for. As always though, i say this was MY experience. Go and experience it yourself. -AnonymousNate Read more
Been coming here twice in a month. It's the frozen season for crawfish but their crawfish are big, juicy and yummy for being... frozen. Our family loves their Cajun garlic butter seasoning. I am loving them again. Strongly recommended. Read more
