Bucket O' Crawfish Alameda Reviews
Had Dungeoness crab and Snow crab with lemon pepper sauce and garlic butter. Was really good. The standout however was their crawfish fried rice. It was amazing. Unexpectedly some of the best fried rice we've had anywhere.
Went there on January. The seafood is surprisingly fresh and tasty. Cajun fries is also nice seasoned.
Great place for some down south foods. Wife and my son love the foods they order. Very taste full crawfish, shrimps, crabs, corn and potatoes. This place is 2 stores in one. There also Pho restaurant.
Garlic crab and crawfish rice perfectly cooked. Nice clean atmosphere with service with a smile
Great portions! Yummy seasoning! They place it into a bowl and not a bag nice touch! The seasoning has a purée that kept the seafood yummy and not watered down
My favorite place to get seafood! I call in for my shrimp, usually takes 15-20 minutes to get my order together. I like to arrive a few minutes early so I can enjoy a Cherry Blossom while I wait. #CajunHot#PotatosNCorn#SouthernLivin
Best food ever! Great customer service and again, the food was awesome!

Got the cajun crawfish with medium spiciness, it was quite flavorful. The portion of crawfish looked small but was quite filling. Most of it tasted fresh, but there were 3-4 that tasted fishy and I had to dip it in more sauce to eat it. Also ordered the pork and shrimp Vietnamese roll as the 2 restaurants have combined seating. For the price, I think it was pretty worth it overall. Might come back to try the shrimp or other seafood next time.
It was quite empty when we arrived. The restaurant was connected to a Vietnamese restaurant. The server was really attentive and immediately offered drinks. Food was good... Not spectacular but just good.
Tasty except crawfish! We’ve already had this twice this week.

Place was pretty good. The prices online do not match the prices on the menu. To be honest prices on my receipt didn't match prices on the menu. Their cheesecake or their version of cheesecake is like pound cake with some weird filling on top of it. Nice atmosphere friendly staff. They have cocktails. Just a little over priced 240 bucks for dinner for two. Yeah we took some fried rice and a few chicken wings home but bay area prices

Originally I wanted to eat in but i never received service so I opted to order for to go instead. No biggie. I ordered the combo #3 with an extra half lb of shrimp and it came out to be about $36 with taxes. Not bad in my opinion. The sea food was fresh and steamed well. I got it with the "crazy mix" which is a mix of all of the flavors. I received my food in 2 bags (one with the seafood in it and another one for discard) and it was covered in the flavorful sauce. It could've had more salt in my opinion. It had flavor but no salt. It was odd and left me longing for something more. Fresh seafood. Great flavors. No salt at all.

Decided to try this place on a whim. That was a mistake. Food was sub par, service and wait time poor. Appetizers ordered, chicken wings , fried oysters, and calamari. Fried oyster and wings were ok . but the calamari both looked and tasted horrible like frozen , with a rubbery texture. The main dish was missing items , we had to ask for things like silverware, bread, the noodles we order which came 13 min after the main dish it was intended to be eaten with. Asked for cracker-tool for thr crab legs took 7 min to bring. After that experience I will not be giving them a second chance wont be returning to this place.

We ordered a $95 Seafood Boil. It came with crab legs, potatoes, mussels, boiled eggs, links, corn on the cob and crawfish. I didn't eat anything but crawfish and mussels. The crawfish taste freezer burnt🥴 and the mussels weren't fresh. Im a crab boil/seafood lover and this place doesn't have to worry about me ever again.

NEVER EVER again!!! I ordered the combo 2 and this is what I received, reheated shrimp and crawfish that were soft and mushy the sauce was disgusting and wasn’t even heated up all the way through which leads me to believe it was old. when i called the lady laughed and said “it was fresh!” lies!!!! please to don’t eat here!!! i will be reporting them to the health board
So I typically am not one to write bad reviews but this place was unacceptable and I don’t want people to have the same experience. The food: we ordered 2lbs of shrimp one with cajun seasoning one with crazy seasoning a side of fries, and a salad. Shrimp tasted very off complete rubber, impossible to peel and very fishy. Both me and my partner’s sauces were luke warm at best even though we were eating in and it was slow. the sauce was separated between oil and like solid chili paste not incorporated at all. Fries: also luke warm and very minimally seasoned. Not great but remarkably the only semi edible item. Salad: not well explained or described in the menu at all. Not exaggerating it was a salad mix with one slice of tomato cut in half no dressing. When asked for dressing an ultra sweet vinegar was brought. Which I can’t eat. I asked to send it back or have another dressing and the kid serving just offered soy sauce and fish sauce.. We ended up eating a total of 8 shrimp a few fries and one bite of salad. Went to the register saying the food was not edible to us and they offered no remedy just took our money and we left. No offering to maybe try something else or even take an item or two off nothing. So whatever we pay. Never coming back and I recommend you don’t go either. The whole experience was a miss, should have just burned a $50 bill.
Trash!! Service was Terrible. Was very rude. When I asked for my order. Made It seem like I did not pay for my order. The food was trash bread was hard. I would say the raw oysters where OK but I would not recommend this place to anyone I know. I will not be going here anymore. My first in last time.
I asked the lady The front of the crawfish was live. She said yes. THEY LIED. We ordered 2 lbs home. Crawfish is not fresh- it’s from those frozen pack- it has the smells From Frozen food and it’s almost black looking. crawfish taste like dead meat that has been injected with chemicals. Nasty. We’ve eat fresh crawfish for years- we know the difference! Dishonest business!

Just close this place down to be honest very unprofessional customer service all of the food was rubber mainly the shrimp waste of money and time they should just give this food out for free like im so over the fact that i couldn’t enjoy my meal it felt like im eating a bucket full of heavy sauce and no love put into this meal to save u time just go to supreme crab or bag o crab. 2/10 very disappointed and i want a refund which will not happen so have a nice day bucket with your bucket meals.
