Pier 88 Boiling Seafood is our go-to seafood boil restaurant in the Valley. We regularly dine at…read morethe one in Tolleson, but found ourselves in Mesa today and were in the mood for seafood boil. This location is a much nicer facility and in a better area than the one in Tolleson. The menu is consistent too, which made it easy for us to order our favorites. I hope you get Gigi as your server as she is very pleasant, friendly and checks on you regularly. However, the two (2) greeters at the hostess stand are a different story. It is obvious neither of them like their jobs and just come in to punch a clock. It would be nice if they at least made eye contact with the customers before they have you follow them to the table they have picked out for you. Smile? . . . that's out of the question, too. We determined by the expressions on their faces their parents probably told them since they graduated from high school they aren't going to sit around the house doing nothing all day so this must the the place they applied to.

After driving by this place many times on our way to nearby Dink & Dine, my daughter and I decided…read moreto give it a try. We are fans of the local competitor and wanted to see how this one compared. TLDR: the other one is better! We each ordered the Famous Low Country Boil - mine with lemon pepper sauce and my daughter with the 88 Special, a combo of all the sauces. She went with no spice and I went with mild. We also ordered a bowl of rice. We did enjoy what we had but it seemed heavier than what we are used to. We were not big fans of the sausage mixed in and our service was fine, but not amazing. We were also disappointed that there were not scissors offered to help get the meat out of the crab / lobster - we really had to work for it! On a positive note, we did make good use of the wet wipes that were given to us as well as our bibs and gloves. It is quite a messy meal and note that I learned the hard way: don't wear white if you're planning on ordering any kind of seafood boil! Pricing is similar to the competitor. Ambiance is chill but not as fun. I would not rush back, but I also would return with reasonable expectations.

Ordered the 1/2 snow and 1/2 shrimp combo and 1 lbs of crawfish. Ordered the Cajun edamame, dozen raw oysfer, shrimp taco, and fish and chips. Edamame was pretty good drenchdd in Cajun seasoning. I don't know if it was worth almost $9. Oysters were pretty good. Pretty good price for the size. My bag of seafood came and I was reminded why I don't like crawfish as much now. Lots of work for tiny piece of meat. Crab legs were pretty good, and shrimp was OK. I got spicy level but seemed little weak for being spicy level. Fish taco was not too nad, three tacos and no side dishes or nothing. Just 3 tacos. Didn't try the fish and chips but I was told they were pretty good. Over all food was pretty good but now I remember why I don't come here often. Bit pricey after all said and done for what you get.

Then I decided, let me browse seafood on maps and I seen this place, the menu had broil in the bags similar to the other two restaurants and since neither one of us had been here we decided to try it. Long story short now onto the real review of the place, parking is big, when I got to the place it didn't look like many cars. Which made me hope this place didn't disappoint; plus side was plenty of parking and no wait to sit. I got my booth while I waited for my friend I loved the interior it looked real clean and the decor was nice, the vibes were more calming and chill than rowdy(if you've been to angry crab or la crab shack you'll know what I mean). They have a huge bar with stools to sit at and booths. Now to the food, they had a broad menu seafood broil (the only reason I go to these places) and Asian like, such as sushi and other things to be honest I didn't pay attention, because I went for the seafood broil only and it's easy to order. I got head on shrimp, with house Cajun sauce, spicy, and added potatoes and sausage. It was so good!! If you like spicy it's perfect! It does have a kick, but good. When I got my bag the food was steaming I would take off a point on the sausage(don't get me wrong it was good! But when biting I would have to pull in order to break off I feel like it was the skin of the sausage being annoying) and they were thinly cut, but not worth taking a star off. The staff was friendly, I would return and I can't wait to bring my husband, let me add that the prices are great, they seemed cheaper than the other two places I mentioned above.

BEWARE. The atmosphere is the only good thing about this place…read more The restaurant looks charming, with unique Korean/Cajun décor and a beautiful indoor fish pond, but the food was HORRIBLE. We ordered the spicy shrimp and sausage boil and could barely eat it. When the server asked how everything was, we told her it was not good. Her response? "Sorry, we have a new cook who's training." Seriously?! So you KNOW the cook isn't ready, serve customers bad food anyway, and still charge full price? No replacement, no discount, no attempt whatsoever to make it right. They simply did not care. Cute pond. Terrible food. Even worse customer service. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Our drinks were brought out to us promptly. I ordered the ceviche de camarón o pescado. I couldn't decide between shrimp or fish. So the server said he'll do half and half for my order. Problem solved! My friend got the Botana de camarón cosida. Both dishes were refreshing. Mine had a great citrus punch to it. Definitely lots of lime! You'd think it would be all that filling. Just some fish and some shrimp. But there was so much on the plate, I was DEFINITELY full! Even left a little on the plate. The place was nicely decorated. Very kitschy Mexico street stand vibes. No overly loud music or tv blaring. Could talk easily over lunch without yelling at each other.
