Amazing food and service! Best one hands down and the food didn't take super long to come out. Try the noodles as an add on! Won't disappoint... Update: I'm enjoying my food then I look in the reflection of the front door and the cook is digging in his nose repeatedly then in his ear ! Yuckkk! He then continued preparing food no gloves or washing of his hands. I couldn't finish my food. I told the front counter person and he said it's nothing he can do. Lol just nasty and right after I left a review for free fries. I didnt even bother waiting for the fries smh just yuckkkk! read more

Food was amazing, great taste and good ambient. Service 10 out 10. Definitely recommend this spot

Food: The food was delicious! I tend to not like the fries of different shrimp boils but these fries were really good! The boil was delicious as well! I loved how they give you an option to upgrade for peeled shrimps. I did this but sadly they don't give you the receipt back so wouldn't know how much more. ( you have to ask for it for them to give it to you) Service: The service was good although I didn't like that after 11pm it's ONLY CARDS. No CASH I ordered around 11:20pm and the girl allowed me to pay cash although she had already cashed out the registers. Although I did have to speak up for myself which I don't like because I know others would've left it like that. I called 15 mins before going to the restaurant to make sure they did accept cash and who ever picked up said YES. BUT then when I got there she said she couldn't accept my cash. I told her what happened about my call and the drive I did so she helped me out and accepted the cash. This is why I'm leaving it as a 4 star review. I didn't like that the person who picked up the phone call lied but the girl who helped me out with my order was kind turned it around. Ambience : The restaurant is small inside around 2 tables I believe but you can always take food to go and it's clean inside. But I can't say much about it because I did take it to go. read more

I love the calm ambiance and the staff here are very welcoming and friendly. The food smells delicious and tasted wonderful!

If you are craving seafood, this is THE spot to go. The food is bursting with flavor and you can't go wrong with any of the sauces you choose. They all taste heavenly, whether you mix them all together or get them separately. No other seafood place around here hits like this one. Go here, you won't regret it! read more

Food is delicious. Service is great and there's music as soon as you walk in to set the vibe. I will definitely be coming back

I spent $200 and I'm gonna show you the portion of food I got they didn't even give me the correct shrimp I feel played and I will never spend another dollar at this location The food was not seasoned right. I don't even think they use any butter. The seasoning was caked up. My potato was hard in the middle damn near broke my tooth, I spent $200. I am so disappointed and I will never go there again. read more

So my sister told me hey you hungry ? I look at her and say maybe and she said getting ready we're going to eat but wouldn't tell me where.... Long behold we arrive to Boil Daddy and it was empty inside and we ordered our food I got the the fisherman's dinner with peeled shrimp no corn, with all the sauces and mild spice and a boiled egg. The shrimp was tender and juicy and flavorful the links were real good as well just the should think about peeling of the skin for texture, but still the potatoes everything was delicious, nice and hot and that was perfect. The service was ok they really didn't do much cause we did order from the kiosk but they were still kind when they came to our table even tho we were the only customers there. It was nice and quiet till the employees starting speaking about inventory. We usually order through Uber Eats but it was nice to finally dine in. Will definitely come again! read more

We came to this location on our socal food trip. Now the crawfish is got was fair. Not super good and not bad either. My girl shrimp was over cooked and the flavor was bland. Our waitress was nice but seem like the whole staff there is lazy. After we got our food. They didn't offer us water refil, we didn't get utensils or napkins. I had to go up and ask for them. Service was horrible but they don't check on their customer and we were the only one there. I wouldn't come back here. read more

I've heard about the place multiple times but today confirmed it. The staff is racist , on multiple occasions they've done little malicious stuff as far as drinks and service read more

Workers are very nice! We were a party of 9 (very large party) so it can be very annoying but everyone is so nice and welcome.

The food was good, service was good the servers were really nice and helpful which is always great, the vibes here were nice especially with the latino music playing. Great spot for a late night seafood boil read more

Soooooo good. The food was flavorful, fresh, and cooked perfectly. Portions were solid and everything came out hot. The service was friendly and quick, and the vibe was chill. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving a seafood boil. read more

My friends and I were in the area and decided to grab a quick bite at The Boil Daddy before our paint night event. Although they're known for Cajun Seafood, I was craving wings after seeing the menu! I ordered for myself (way too much) the Dry Daddy Wings $17. The wings were fried just right - the meat was juicy and the batter on the outside had the perfect crisp. They were generous with the portion of crispy french fries on the side, too. My friend got the Wet Daddy Wings (boneless) $17 and she loved it as well! We also ordered the Street Daddy Corns $13 to share. Imagine battered corn sprinkled with Cajun seasoning and topped with Parmesan - delicious! I never had corn on the cob all fried and seasoned like this so this was a fun treat! My other friend got their Crispy Mahalo Shrimp $18 with rice and a side of Mac and Cheese. We had a little bit of everything so I got to try a variety of dishes between the three of us - needless to say, we're sold to come back for another round! Overall, the Boil Daddy delivered the goods and some more. I was a happy gal with lots of leftovers to take home! I will definitely be back with more friends! read more

I've ordered this a few times via DoorDash. Sometimes I crave boiled seafood or some sort of spicy seafood. I will say, it comes fresh and hot. It's a good amount of servings as well. However, it's not really seasoned. It doesn't have much flavor I guess, no matter how you change the levels. Yet, a decent substitute if you MUST have this meal. read more

This was my first time trying this place... never again I ordered take out 1/2 of shrimp. TELL ME WHY ALL OF THE SHRIMPS HEADS WERE BLACK & THE SHRIMPS HAD BLACK SPOTS ON ITS SHELL!!!?????? Service wasn't all that either. NEVER again will i be coming here i checked tik toks videos & reviews to see if my shrimps looked the same hell no they were so small & black. This is not okay if i get sick it has to be because of this. read more

11/6/25 6:20pm 2nd time ordering from here on Postmates and food is always delicious. We were kind of bummed about our garlic butter sauce because the lid had melted into the butter. The mussels and shrimps were delicious. The Daddy's shrimp bowl was flavorful and fulfilling. Cajun sauce both spicy, and mild spice were good. Corn was good, I do wish it wasn't fried with I think it was batter or flour. The flavor of the cajun fries were good, could have either been fried longer or it was just a delivery issues and got soggy. Overall we enjoyed our meal. read more

Horrible customer service by Kathy. She wouldn't let me use the restroom because I was picking up the order and not eating there. Never again read more

Ahhhhhh I love this place! Honestly, my go to was boiling crab, but this place is now my go to! The seasoning is on point and price is fair as well! Definitely give it a try!!! read more

Honestly... This pissed me off so bad that I don't even want to say anything on this review other than it wasn't good. I got the "daddy's shrimp bowl. The potato had no flavor whatsoever. The shrimp was bland as well and underwhelming. The rice kind of gave me the ick, and the only thing I actually liked was the sausage. They also give you one small slice of lemon on the side. I was looking forward to trying the sauce the reviews are talking about, but I don't think I received it. They did however pile on a whole bunch of (what I assume is) creole/cajun seasoning that did absolutely nothing for the dish. Wouldn't eat here again. Waste of $27. read more

Amazing food. The lady in front is very nice. Ambiance is okay. Love it over all price is okay

I come here for the seafood boil, but they have some other pretty good options on their menu. I mostly order through door dash since they have deals online & sometimes placing in person orders can take a while. Haven't dined in yet, but i plan to because it's never too crowded whenever I'm there to pick-up my orders & it's always so chill/quiet inside which I like very much. You have to get the daddy sauce on your seafood boil. I also love the fried shrimp too. Everything has so much flavor! read more

Ordered for lunch- they have a kiosk where you can place order . They don't really take phone orders . There is parking so it was okay. The price is reasonable and the taste is good . The size of shrimp was not as big as others but it's acceptable. I ordered 1/2 lb shrimp with rice and shrimp with noodles. It was prepared in timely manner. Restaurant interior is just okay. read more

Came here for pre workout snack & it hit just the spot! Everything was amazing, tasted so fresh & was hot! All the seasonings was just tasteful! Their staff was very friendly & respectful! They let us eat but also made sure to come check up on us! The store was clean & smelled amazing when we walked in! I would definitely recommend this place! I will be returning!! read more

Came here with a group of friends morning after a night out and we all loved it. The service was friendly and great. We were the only ones in the restaurant at that time and we requested to play music and they accepted kindly. I ordered the Daddy's Shrimp Bowl and it was filling for me, although I couldn't finish the rice. I also ordered the Daddy's Fries and loved them :) They also gave me a sticker... I love stickers! read more

This was my first time, trying seafood boil, and it was good. I appreciate that this location has dine in option as well as parking space. When you walk in, you are able to choose your seating as well as order from the kiosk or at the register. The waiter was kind and brought out water for me since I didn't order a drink. It was not easy to entirely understand his accent, but that was not an issue. The total of the food I ordered, was $28 and I was very full since the portion was very decent! Very strong and good flavors in the sauce. read more

It pains me to have to do this because I became a fan of this place! I had to place the order with the waiter/cashier because he never made contact. He said fisherman dinner I asked what that was he explained and I said no because I don't want sausage. That I wanted eggs he said he would substitute. I ordered a lemonade was told I got a refill which I did get both drinks but at the same time. By the time I got to the second one it was watered down. Now the food they put sausages and no eggs. They didn't bring lemons never checked on us and the flavor was completely off and dry. The waiter preferred being on his phone then make sure we were okay. Now my friend her fries also had no flavor and she was also displeased with everything. Pretty much we ate dry shrimp. I will definitely think twice before coming back because the service has gone down from my first time here. read more

Best seafood in la, i dont go anywhere else when it comes to king crab! The music is always amazing and food is TOP TIER

The food was great and the sauce was bomb. Will finely definitely be back. Daddy fries were good.

I'll give the seafood 5 stars but I do want to give tips to improve quality of food. I love the sauce that sets on top of the seafood, I personally ordered the spicy Cajun sauce. Now the sauce tasted a little sweet but it wasn't nothing some Old Bay couldn't fix. The amount of food given was definitely filling. I got a pound of head on shrimp and a crab cluster. Overall the food was okay, I would just desire more seasoning to marinate the food. I would definitely try this place again. It definitely gave what it was supposed to give! Thanks Boil Daddy! read more

First time here after seeing advertisement on line it's misrepresentation. While placing order it wasn't explained on the up charges. Then wanted to cancel order we were told no refunds. The worker was handling seafood with no gloves. They have cameras so the owner can check for verification. Just wouldn't recommend this at all.... Then mgr comes in and doesn't even acknowledge or speak to us. Then refuses refund I'm not very happy read more

My recent visit to Boil Daddy left me utterly satisfied! The seafood boil was simply divine, bursting with freshness and flavor. Each bite was a delight, and the Daddy sauce added the perfect kick to elevate the experience. read more

Yummy food, service was great, they were super nice and ambience was very fun. The French fries were really good as well

This place is a few blocks from my house, I've passed by hundreds of times and I've never thought to stop by. Well, first time for everything. My wife and I decided to give it a try and we were glad we did! Friday night, we didn't wait long for a table. We enjoyed the shrimp, boiled eggs, corn on the cobs with their "daddy sauce", and added a 6pc wing order. Ambiance was great, music in the background. They currently don't sell alcohol but from what they said it's on the way, that'll be the cherry on top, at least for me. read more
