A great place to take Cajun seafood for dinner. They have a huge dining hall with large desks and many seats! A perfect place for a family dinner. The staff are pretty friendly to show us everything and give us some recommendations for dining here. There are many details to make you fall in love with it such as they offer desk cover, apron and gloves for customers, even with continued offering. The seafood is fresh enough! The raw oyster is great and at a reasonable price. The combo includes crawfish, shrimp, crabs and mussels. Even the potatoes and corn are well with the special sauce of Cajun, lemon pepper and garlic honey. We added extra sausage into the plate. Really tasty and feeling satisfied for the whole bowl. They even offer delicious fried chicken wings here. The price of food is reasonable for such a large dinner!
One of the BEST!!! My coworker from Orange County told me about this place and I came the next day. Service was inviting and our waitress was a gem. So helpful and really made the experience fun. It's a big restaurant! Lots of seating so bring your entire family to enjoy the food. We started with the garlic wings - these are A MUST. flavorful and cooked to perfection. We got the Combo C with all the sauces mixed together. We ordered white rice & 2 eggs as a side to eat with it. I cut the egg in half and added the sauce on top - droooooool worthy. The sauce was so damn good. I've been thinking about it since. The pricing here is really what is amazing, all this food for a total or $49? I'll come weekly! Worth the drive. Worth the wait. Worth it all!
We’ve come to this place a couple of times. Food is always great and the service is just outstanding! Try it, definitely worth it.
Yummy! This visit was my first time ever trying to seafood boil. My daughter-in-law and granddaughter were in town, so we came for dinner. For $35 I got crab and shrimp you came with a couple of potatoes and a corn. I definitely want to come back.
I have been waiting for King Crab to open and I will tell you "Wow" it was so worth the wait. My husband ordered the Combo A (black mussels, shrimp and snow crab) and I ordered the Combo C ( shrimp and snow crab). The combos come with corn on the cob and red potatoes. On the sauces my husband used plain garlic butter and chose non spicy and I used the King's special sauce and chose mild spice. Everything was perfectly cooked and extremely delicious. We started off with hush puppies, I must tell you they were absolutely delicious, man oh man I could eat those all day long. I also had to try the Cajun fries let me say I was not disappointed because they are perfectly spiced and absolutely delicious. Love the staff also they are friendly, caring and fun to talk with. Great service! We are definitely going to be back. Highly recommend everyone to try King Crab on West Point Loma.
The food was 10/10, and the server was so nice (Diana) the sauce she recommended was delicious😋
Came here for Mothers Day and luckily got seated right away. My boyfriend and I each ordered the special B with the juicy special sauce. When I saw the pictures on the menu, I couldn’t believe it was priced at just $31.99.. I expected it to be small and unsatisfying, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much food it was. This is the best price for a seafood boil if you ask me. Everything was good especially the sauce. The crawdads were alright but it tastes like it came straight out of the lakes.
The seafood was of an excellent quality and surpassed expectations. We would particularly recommend the lobsters and oysters. We ordered a combination platter which included corn, potatoes and sausages in a chili butter sauce. This was a particularly enjoyable dish. The waitress also spoke Cantonese, which was a great asset.

Best crab boil I have ever had and the service is excellent. Food is very flavorfull. If you are purchasing the crab boil , I suggest getting the flavor “juciy special”. Also recommend the breaded wings . The best experience. I come here a lot now and it’s overall an amazing atmosphere and service. The workers take care of there customers. 10/10 won’t regret it !

Holy cow, this place is amazing. I got 1nof the special combos and added 2 eggs to it. I love how easy they make it so you can eventually have any type of broil and combo you want. I also got the fried oysters and they were cooked to perfection. The appetizer was really like a full meal on its own because it also comes with fries. So I got the sweet potato fries, which were also very good. One last thing I want to mention is you can tell they use fresh seafood because of the flavor and texture in your mouth when eating it. I cant speak on the dine in service, because I got take out. But even with my takeout order the young lady helped explain how to order what I want and some suggestions. So I can only imagine the dine in service is just as good. I will definitely be going back
Went to lunch here with our daughter, her hubby and the two adorable grandkids. The place was not busy and we had a nice, unhurried meal. Celina was our server and she was awesome. She was welcoming and tended to our every need with a great attitude. Food arrived quickly and we felt that each dish/bag was good and my daughter loves the juice in the bag. Everything was as expected and I do recommend this King Crab location.
The place was busy so naturally the wait was a little bit longer than usual. We got sat and served in a timely matter and the food was absolutely delicious! This was our second visit and the food hit just as good as the first time. Will be coming back when in the area again.
Brah. This crab and king sauce is fantastic! I recently ordered to the Granger hotel as an avid seafood by the bag expertante lol this crab and seasoning is fresh and super flavorful ! The Garlic is chopped so well it mixed great to scoop an amazing bite. Most importantly they throughly clean their crab before adding the sauce. It was my first time in so i opted for their “ house “ sauce king sauce in medium. Next time I’ll try the hot but the flavor over all is a 10/10! Shot out to whomever chops the Garic. thanks again.. i may place another order before 9pm! Great Christmas Eve option !
The shrimps were big! The crab was cooked to perfection! The flavors on point! The Boba tasted exactly how it should taste! The staff was super friendly and the owner was very nice. 1000% recommend!

COME HERE INSTEAD OF CRAB HUT!!! There’s so many combo options with all different variety you would want for half the price!!!! And you can get crab without having to order a whole crab. Fresh and juicy mussels, clams, crab, and shrimp! Amazing food, great prices, no wait time, and server Jocelyn was attentive and so sweet and positive. Had a great time ❤️🦐🍽️🦀❤️

This is my first meal in San Diego this winter break. Their Cajun seafood was juicy. Highly recommend their signature sauce with hot level. It could be better adding more garlic. The seafood tasted fresh with a large size. I liked craw fish, sweet corn, and shrimp the most. Raw oysters were fresh and decent. Cajun fries were fried crispy. The dining room was clean and large with many seats and a nice bar. The service was great. The price could be a little high.

Very large venue clean, bright and airy. The service was great. No wait. We ordered the shrimp and snow crab special came out in a reasonable time. The spice level was mild, but I definitely think we could have gone up a little. There wasn't a lot of flavor but overall the food was good. Ordered the soju Margarita. Excellent. Overall good value for Price

Price to experience was not there. Priced around $50 a person for everyone to get a big meal (no alcohol). The food was simply mid. The sauce was minimal and not as flavorful like I get at other crab boil places. The shrimp were some of the worst shrimp I’ve ever had. I left the place still hungry. This was one of the worst dinning experiences I’ve had in a while because of the food. The service was quick and great, but that does not make up for the high prices and mid food.
We came here to celebrate Pastor Simmons with members of Agape deliverance ministries. Our server was by herself and did a very good job. I don’t remember her name unfortunately but I hope that she sees this post and gets recognized for her good work ! Tips are included in the check so I’m not sure of what size group that starts at. If you’re going to have a group here. It was reasonable, though. It would’ve been really nice to have more of a chicken selection. The atmosphere seemed a little cold from what I’m used to, but for the most part, it was a good time.
Disappointed Experience Out of all the crab boil spots I've tried in San Diego, this was unfortunately my least favorite. I ordered a special combo with their "Juicy" house sauce (medium spice), but the sauce was overly oily and lacked flavor. The sausage tasted more like a boiled hot dog, and overall the seafood, potatoes, and corn were all bland. It seemed like everything was boiled in plain water rather than seasoned broth. Service was just okay. We were a party of six and ordered three combos ($100+ each), but only received three crab cracker tools. When we asked for more, they only brought one extra. We also had to request seafood splitter/ scissors separately, and they gave us just one pair for the whole table who was all eating crab. Staff wasn't too friendly and only checked on us once after bringing food.

Overall, a disappointing experience. The flavor was quite average, lacking the depth that a proper Cajun boil should have. Compared to other Cajun boil places I’ve tried, the difference was very noticeable. The food was only lukewarm when served, and the aroma was not fully developed, which really affected the overall experience. The crab legs were also not very fresh, with some noticeably empty shells and low meat yield for the price. I wouldn’t come back, especially given there are much better options in the same category.

It was our first and last time unfortunately! We had high hopes because of the photos but we were disappointed with the food and service! It seemed that to service us seemed like a chore for the host and we were waiting for about 15 minutes to get drinks and for our order to be placed. Greeter didn’t seem to tuned in well and it made us uncomfortable. Our food was cold and I had to send my chicken strips that were supposed to be catfish back twice because it was never Catfish they say they cook it in the same fryer but still only ended up giving me one catfish and 3 chicken strips even after asking! My husband’s poboy was soggy and wet from over consumption of sauce and wet lettuce the only decent thing was the lemon shrimp and crab meat fries but they were also cold. Cold food causes sickness and illness from bacteria growth. As a sea food spot please understand the precautions of platting and serving your food hot!
Visiting from out of town and ordered from here last night. I order the crab cakes, chicken fingers, and hush puppies. Absolutely disgusting. The worst food I’ve ever tasted or seen in yearsss!!! I mean complete yuck 🤢🤢 I have no clue how they have all of these positive reviews. Thankfully Uber Eats refunded me!

Hi, I’m a bit confused about the closing policy. Your hours say you close at 9:45, but when I arrived around 9:00–9:05 to dine in alone, I was told it was takeout only and couldn’t stay. I would have been in and out within about 20 minutes. I come here regularly — about three times a week — and this is the first time I’ve been turned away from dining in, so it was pretty disappointing. If dine-in hours are different from your posted closing time, it would really help customers if that was clearly listed online to avoid confusion. I appreciate the spot and hope this feedback helps improve the experience moving forward.
