      Compared to other Cajun seafood boil spots, Bag O' Crab is definitely above average.

      I visited Bag O' Crab on a Saturday evening, with my dad sister, my 14 year old cousins, and my 8 year old cousin. I mention their ages, because the 8 year old can't handle spice. We ordered the combo # 4 with Dungeness crab, and mild lemon pepper sauce. While us adults, as well as the 14 year olds, barely felt a kick, the little one had his mouth on fire. So we ordered chicken tenders and fries as well. The kids loved them! The little one rated the chicken a 12/10! We also thought it was super cute that our server delivered the chicken and fries right to him, even though we didn't tell our server it was for him. The seafood boil was great as well. It didn't blow us out of the park, but that's probably because we actually wanted the atomic sauce, and toned it down for the kids. So we'll have to come back and give it a try! Regardless, the lemon pepper was still very good. And the crab! Oh boy, that was one meaty crab! I was worried at first because i thought we'd all have to fight for a piece, but there was more than enough for all of us, in the legs and the body! The shrimp, clams, and crawfish were all cooked to perfection, and flavorful throughout. The sausage was great, and the potatoes were as well. The only downside was that I wish there were more of them! As sides, we each had a cup of steamed rice, which was also cooked perfectly! You'd be surprised how many seafood boil places I've gone to that had subpar rice, but not this one!

      Overall, I'd recommend Bag O' Crab. It's a good place for families, with many large tables and TVs. The combo #4 was perfect for the 6 of us, so it's a lot of bang for your buck. Another plus is that the kids loved the robot servers with kitten faces. They thought they were so cute, and exclaimed every time the robots passed by.

      It's that timeeee to eat some seafood boiled !! Came here with my partner to get some crawfish, the wait was about 5 mins however it does get pretty busy after 8pm. The service was friendly, however it's hard to wave them down after you order your food. The atmosphere is pretty lively.

      The food we got the #1 combo with shrimp and crawfish . The sauce I got was atomic sauce with On fire spice level. The sauce was good.

      My partner got the Louisiana sauce with medium spice. We prefer the atomic because it has more flavor. The Louisiana is more sweeter. Haha

      The fried fish was PERFECT ! Their Cajun fries is a must !!!!! Definitely recommend the Cajun fries.
      There's a full size bar, there's happy hours 3-5pm M-F
      I would come back here again.

      This place was pretty busy when I went. The lot is paid parking but you can type in a code to park for free for a while.

      Overall, I think this place is pretty good but I was more impressed by the garlic noodles and corn than the shrimp in my bag. We got the combo 3 with the king crab legs. The crab was good with the atomic sauce but the sauce didn't stick that well to the shrimp. The corn was very juicy and the sauce soaked in well. I also usually really like potatoes but the potatoes didn't do it for me this time.

      You can wash your hands inside and outside the restrooms since there's sinks outside the restroom as well.

      Had to check out this spot and the only complaint I have is that it's tough to find parking right in front, but you can park in the lot nearby if you're willing to pay. The service was quick and servers were attentive. Compared to other seafood boil spots, I'd say the flavors of those sauce was a 6/10. It was flavorful and had enough heat, but personally I wish it was less oily. I liked that the fries were crispy! Overall, for the price, it's a solid spot.

      I dined here on a Monday 6/10 for the first time and I was really impressed with how big this restaurant was. There's tvs everywhere and one giant screen, perfect for watching games. The staff were very friendly and service was quick.

      Here's what we ordered:

      Cajun Fries (5/5)
      Flavorful shoestring fries!
      I love the hint of sweetness they've added to the Cajun spice

      1/2 Dozen Raw Oysters (4/5)
      These were okay, not as fresh and briney as I'd hope. Not sure if maybe they were pre shucked or just not fresh. Didn't have much flavor to it.

      Combo #1 w/ Head on shrimp & mussel (5/5)
      + 1lb head on shrimp
      Atomic Sauce - Mild
      The flavor on the seafood was really good but even their mild was pretty spicy, like close to a medium. They pack the bag with LOTS of sauce. Most seafood places over cook the shrimp but the cook was perfect!

      Overall, I'm giving this place 5 stars as I would definitely be back and recommend to friends! They have really great pricing compared to other seafood boils that want to charge an arm & and leg. My new Cajun spot!

      This was my 2nd time here and I got the 1 pound bag of shrimp - head on, automatic sauce in medium and it was spicy, but like peppery spicy. My friend got the #1 combo bag with the automatic sauce with "a little bit" of spicy. She liked her shrimp, corn, potatoes, etc. We also got the Cajun fries and that was yummy! They also provide the bibs, gloves, and extra forks and mini plates if you wanted to split/share the food with the people you're with. Server answered all of our questions. Ambiance was packed and lively. They also played r&b and hip hop music. I wish they refilled our cup of waters - but wasn't sure if they were waiting for us to ask for it. There's a parking lot right around of the restaurant but you will need to pay for it. There's also street parking as well. Other than that, it was a chill spot if you're craving some seafood boil!

      My husband and a few friends came here on a Saturday night and had a good amount of food for a really good deal. I would highly recommend coming when you are craving seafood and in the area.

      The service was quick and our food came out quickly.

      The ambiance is your typical seafood spot with the nautical theme.

      We got the 2 pounds deal and chose clams and shrimp with medium atomic sauce on the side. *note: I prefer to dip my shrimp so asking for sauce on the side is perfect since I don't like my shrimp drenched.

      For the table to share we got Cajun fries, Cajun fried wings and garlic bread.

      I tried to give them a couple of tries but the last two they just didn't accept sit down orders, first they told us 30min before they closed then we came 40min another day before closing time and then they said 40min, yeah they need to get more direct rules.
      The time I did come w e ordered a pound of king crab legs each, some shrimp, and eggs with Luisiana mild sauce. The Luisiana sauce was good but the crab was over cooked, so was the shrimp and the garlic noodles. Kinda disappointing mostly with all these great reviews I had higher expectations. The service was really cut quick like they over seat their sections and once your food comes, they never come to check on you unless it's to give you the check way later, you have to hunt them down to order another soda or anything else.
      Hopefully they learn from their mistakes and whoever goes gets better service and food. Best of luck.
      Note all the people giving them good reviews are the same dynamic peer group. Not a lot of brown folks.

      Plenty of seating and a full bar with tv screens. Service was good. Typical wait service for a seafood boil place.
      Ordered garlic noodles and combo #1. The garlic noodles was good, just a little over cooked. The seafood boil was good as well. Had a good amount of spice for medium. I just didn't like how thick and oily the sauce was.
      The place is alright. Probably give it another try and try other items.
