It's very disappointing to unfortunately give this three stars. Here's the deal, the food is actually quite good. I had the chicken over rice and it was pretty decent. That's they only think saving this place. It was a Friday night and supperrrr dead. We dined in and was served on plastic Tupperware, no water was offered to us, and "karaoke night" was non existent. I'm just so sad for this place cause it has so much potential. The food is good and the place is clean. But with mid type of service (at one point we just walked up to them, lack of cutlery, lack of life, Bobo's just doesn't have any restaurant culture. I will say though, even though it's good, my chicken pourover rice came with no veggies and my boyfriend's calamari came with no lemon, which was also weird to us. Do you need help with marketing Bobo's? There was clearly so much effort in the design, but I don't know what happened to the actual culture of the restaurant. There shouldn't be only two parties on a Friday night. I wanna see you win Bobo's! I'm so sad yesterday was not a winner. read more

It was pretty good. I am between 3 and 4 stars so just went with 4. We ordered combo B which was the crab and shrimp, an order of catfish and calamari. Im from the south and we have these places everywhere. They can compete with Juicy Crab and all the others. The sauce most important was delish. We ordered the Bobo's sauce medium and it was really good. The shrimp were large and good which made up for the super small crab legs.. see pic. Since the crab is the biggest cost driver of this dish I really should give this review a 3 but I think the business can do better so hoping you will take the chance to do so. The catfish - 5/5. A lot of restaurants down south are trading out swai or basa. I asked the cashier if it was real catfish, she thought so and I am happy to say it was! Really good catfish would come back and get this. They came with sweet potato ff for an extra $2 which were very good, especially dipped in the Bobo's combo B sauce... not to be confused with the additional dipping sauces provided. I did not use those. SUGGESTION to BIZ- instead of giving everyone the sauces ask them if the want it so you don't waste money. Calamari-- pass. 3/5. So much breading I couldn't taste the calamari. I was here for the normal chewy calamari texture and couldn't get to it with all the batter. Batter was flavored decently. It was empty for a Monday night... If you have not done so yet try them out! read more

I love the food here. I usually come for the fried crawfish and the catfish but they no longer have the fried crawfish (at least not this location) :-( Tonight I had the fried Calamari which I've had before and it's always good and the fried shrimp. The shrimps are big and not heavily breaded. There's a sauce that comes with the calamari that's delicious. Oh, and did I mention that tonight they are having a masquerade ball. Should be fun. read more

First I'll start off by saying, please don't be stingy with your sauces. It's degrading to patrons, especially when you forget items, have misprints on the menu, and are newly opened, in a close community, where the residents will likely be your largest revenue. I was working from home today, and hubby suggested we try Bobo's for lunch. We had been eyeing the place for some time, wondering when they would open up. We were going to order from their online menu but the lunch options were charging us double, so I decided to take a break from work, and go over to the restaurant to order in person. They have a QR code posted outside their entrance, so you can order online but I suggest either calling your order in, or just going in person, especially with their menu issues. If you know me, you know I ordered a not-so-mini smorgasbord of delectables, so that I can sample the menu and see if the place is worth a revisit. I ordered a myriad of items and the first issue I experienced was the fact that I was charged $12 for two orders of lemon pepper fries. On the menu they handed to me at the time that I placed my order, the fries were listed as $4 (check my pics). When I asked about the overcharge, I was told that the menu was incorrectly printed. Red flag for me. Anyone who values their customers should have apologized and offered either a refund, or another item that cost the same amount of the overcharge because, if your menu lists a price, then that's what you need to charge until you fix it. What we had: Lemon Pepper Fries - lemon pepper, where? The seasoning was lost on a trail, waiting for a rescue team, because it was nowhere near these fries. Granted, they were fried well but bland, and considering I was charged 2 bucks more for them, you would have thought they tasted good enough to toss on someone's floor, like Puma did Ceasar. Hushpuppies - solid flavor, like corn bread that wants to be savory. They're ok but where's the sauce?? Crab Cakes - the menu said that it was two per order, but we had a few small ones. They are hot garbage. Very fishy smelling, and tasting, and a few of them were fried hard. Not worth the price tag. Again, where's the sauce? No remoulade? Calamari - really nicely fried. Light and crisp. Very good but again, no marinara, or any type of sauce?? Popcorn Shrimp - dangerous...sooo dangerous, and good, but it would have been nice if they came with a sauce. Lemon Pepper Wings - don't pay extra for all drumsticks because it just isn't worth it. This flavor was very salty, and again, I did not get what it's all cracked up to be. They tasted like fired wings, seasoned in salt and pepper. Basic ASF. Chicken Tenders - I got these for our kiddo. I asked for their BBQ sauce on the side, and I also asked for one of each, bleu cheese, and ranch dipping sauces, but was told inoculd only get one for the other wings, since I was already getting the BBQ sauce on the side, and guess what? They didn't pack my BBQ sauce. These were basic tenders. Fried Shrimp & Onion Rings - This combo was really good. Reminds me of City Island. The fry on the shrimp is like KFC extra crispy. I dig this lots, and the best part is that it won't break the bank. Chicken & Sausage Dirty Rice - More like dingy. I'm unsure the chef's definition of dirty rice but I think they may need some further instruction. Hubby ordered this, and it was basically chicken pieces and andouille sausage, with a scant amount of sauce, over bland ass white rice (again, check my pics). Lunch Specials are available, Monday thru Friday, from open to 3p. Each dish comes with 1/2 lb odf seafood, two eggs, two taters, and two pieces of corn, and your choice of sauce. I ordered two for good measure. Lunch #1: Head Off Shrimp with mild Bobo's OG sauce. It's still a little spicy, and definitely high sodium, but everything is good. The shrimp are cleaned, the potatoes are not mushy, the corn is fully engulfed in the saucy flavor, and the eggs are a nice addition. Lunch #2: Snow Crab Legs with spicy Mojojojo sauce. The sauce is sweet with a helluva kick. I'm not one who enjoys working for my food so, I probably wouldn't order this again. Again, it was served with two of each, potatoes, eggs, and corn. If you read my list of items, you had to have noticed that I purchased quite a few fried seafood items. They legit, gave me one small container of bleu cheese sauce, one small container of tartar sauce, one small container of cocktail sauce, and they forgot my BBQ sauce for my daughter's tenders, after being stingy over an extra dipping sauce. I spent over $125 to try them out and see if they were worth another visit. I've definitely had better, and I just don't think they're worth the price. I'm sure they'll make decent money here but, despite them being in super close proximity, I'd probably take the trip to the west side, and hit up the Puerto Plata seafood truck. read more

I'm giving 3 stars simply because I feel they have room for improvements. I started off with the "Gumbo". It looked more like a soup than anything. Gumbo is supposed to be hearty and thick to coat the stomach but it had the texture of soup. All I had in my cup was one baby shrimp and a bunch of celery. On to the Boil. I got 1/2 a lb of Shrimp and 1/2 a lb of Black Mussels in Garlic Butter no heat, it came with 1 Potato, 1 Corn and I added Hard Boiled Eggs. The Mussel were very tasty. I scooped the sauce up into the shell with the meat...delicious. My problem is that the shrimp was over cooked to the point it tasted mushy. I give it to them they are taking care of the ladies in the restroom and I love that. They have only been open for about 2 weeks so I'll try again in a few weeks to see if it gets better. read more

The foods okay. The boil is over season and TOO SALTY. The lobster didn't really have any flavor. Service was okay the waitress was very nice and the wine was good. Otherwise the ambiance is nice with good music. Has much potential. read more

It was pretty Good for the Prices. Their signature sauce BoBo's OG was super oily and all the seasoning was stuck at the bottom of the combo bag so if you're like me and get a small rice on the side to put your sauce on top of, you will be disappointed. You're just gona make oily rice! BUT wen i rub the shrimps, crab meat or sausage in the "seasoning" It's good! ‍ LoL I would go back but i'm not getting that BoBo's OG ....idk Who made it "Very Populat!" Lol (that's what the waiter said) read more

Bobos Crab Shack - Coop City - Seafood Near Me - The Bronx, New York

This place is amazing! I would've never thought to go here, it is in an area of Co-op city that I am not really around much, but I will start going to more just for this restaurant! The atmosphere is cute, with the staff allowing the customers to write on the wood paneling and great music! The menu has multiple options, but we decided to put together our own steam bag which consisted of, 1pound king crab leg, original bobo's sauce (mild), 2 steamed potatoes (which were so meaty) and one ear of corn that was the right amount for the two of us. That bobo's original sauce is amazing.... I can put that sauce on everything.... We actually got a second order of Cajun fries, just so we can soak them in left over bobo's sauce.... Definitely my #1 recommendation! They don't do alcohol which is nice, only soft drinks and lemonade. One down side... the service was very slow.. not just with our table but with all tables... once we ordered the food came quick, it was just finding someone to order took a very long time... they do have a QR code that you can scan and order yourself.. but I don't really like to do that if there are servers present, because I prefer to tip them! I would recommend, training the serving staff better because they are also using iPads to order so it should be faster and quicker... once this is fixed, this place would be 100%! read more

........amazing lemon pepper French fries. Mini crabs cakes.. Just fell apart and wasn't tasty, very greasy... fried shrimp also greasy... as long as they take to prepare and give you, your takeout, it should be cooked to perfection. The price to high for the goods received. They add the tip to your bill which I chose no, to give cash... read more

Located where the old Chinese Buffet use to be in Co-Op City. Many people don't even know it's a seafood place there. It's a very family oriented place. It's nothing romantic, and nothing to compare when it comes to decor, and ambiance. You can write on the walls, and write on the tables to say you were there. It was very empty on a Monday night. I wanted to try the Fried Shrimp with their signature Mojojojo sauce. I didn't like the spice. The crab cakes were different than what I am use to tasting, but they were okay. This is the first place I know of to include egg in their seafood bag. I wonder what's that all about. The seafood was seasoned well though. read more

I went to dine and in and didn't have any issues. So I ordered a to go combination pour over rice. It should include sausage, chicken and shrimp like the one I ordered when I dined in. I was charged for the combination pour over rice but when I got home there "NO SAUSAGE." I called and spoke to Sherry who served me. She was not apologetic but stated I could come back for the sausage. Like I have Ntn to do but to drive back when they messed up my order. She then said I can come any day for it. Im like how when another staff can just say they know Ntn about it. She stated she can leave a note with my name and number, I started giving my name and number then she starts talking to someone else and disconnects our call. I call back and talk to a guy and he tells me she is busy. Mind u I was there like 15-20 minutes ago and there wasn't much people there. I explained to him that she disconnected my call when I was giving my information for the wrong order. He asks me for my information but it was obvious he was not paying attention because he kept asking me to repeat. Check your order because they just give customers anything and don't care!!!! read more

We went for the 28.50 All You Can Eat Menu and everything was delicious. The salt and pepper shrimp was my fave. I had the lemon pepper wings, Cajun fries, pork and chive dumplings, shrimp w garlic pasta and garlic shrimp. Yeah I think I over did it lol. But I wanted to try as many menu items as i could. Was a little disappointed they didn't have the sea bass. The other items were so delicious, it made up for it. My bf had the General Tso's chicken and shrimp pour over rice and cajun wings which he said was fantastic. I tried his general tso's and it had a little heat to it for anyone who likes it spicy. They just got their liquor license so I will definitely be returning soon. read more

The place is beyond amazing!! All of the seafood was super fresh and flavorful. - the fried shrimp is finger licking good, lightly battered and packed with flavor. Pair it with some fries and ask for the bobo's secret sauce! - the snow crab legs and crawfish combo is perfectly seasoned. - they offer gloves, bibs and moist towelettes if you don't want to get your hands dirty. A great neighborhood joint for seafood and staff is so friendly. Highly recommended!! read more

The service was very shitty and after we paid for food, I spent almost $200 there the owner had the nerve to ask the waiter if we paid for a meal I would never go back there.

They do give a good amount for what you pay, however, my praise ends there. The food was a bit raw to the taste and the sauce was not only minimal In quantity but was also very salty. I would not recommend this place to anybody. read more

The food is really good and the service has greatly improved!! Come and check out Bobo's don't let this neighborhood gem disappear!!

From the looks of it , it looks great and the prices seem good as well .BUT THEY ARE FALSE ADVERTISING. I wanted to go here to get their all you can eat seafood deal for $28.50 as stated on the website and when I called they said they don't do it anymore. I feel that this is very unprofessional because many people may think exactly what I thought when viewing the website. They need to fix that asap. My advice to anyone would be to call in first and don't just believe whatever is on the website because they have yet to update it. read more

My husband and I ordered the garlic butter boil and some bbq wings. The wings were pretty good, nice portion and definitely meaty. My only complaint was the lack of flavor with the shrimp. read more

The good: The mussels, crab legs, calamari & cajun fries. The graffiti wall was also a nice touch. The bathrooms come stocked with everything a woman might need. The bad: The seafood boils are tiny. You also have to request your sauce/dips otherwise it's not automatically included. In addition to no sauce, the server forgot the drinks we ordered so the struggle was real. She seemed to be the only server working. The ugly: The bill arrived and was incorrect, but was adjusted after bringing it to their attention. Bobos has a lot of potential, but ultimately fell short of winning me over. read more

Servers are friendly, nice and spacious inside. Location is easy to get to and parking is a plus. I gave 4 stars because they could increase the menu options, and add a bar. read more

I usually get the fried tilapia and onion rings. This combo is always good! The hush puppies are good as well!

The food was good. The young lady Danieka was very pleasant and helpful. The bathroom was clean. The manager however wasn't very nice. She didn't give us what the menu stated. At least she had the decency to remove it from our bill but she should've given us what the menu had as a courtesy. As for the graffiti on the wall by our table, "Hitler, was right?". What kind of nonsense are they trying to tell their customers? I find it very concerning and confusing. Are they trying to be antisemitic and racist? I know they haven't been open that long but if management wants more customers to frequent their business, they need to get rid these hate words and honor the menus for what they actually say. Not, change the amount of the item ordered when it comes. If the menu says 2 crab cakes for $12, don't change it to 6 crab bites the size of quarters which are not equal. read more

This place is not worth the money or palate. $34 for small snow crab clusters that are worse quality than the local supermarket frozen section.
