Came here because of the great reviews and overall the food was good, but it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. The interior is pretty plain, and the communal hand washing sink from temu in the middle of the dining room felt a bit awkward. After eating, everyone lines up to wash their hands while people are waiting behind them. The crab and seafood were cooked well, but the seasoning was very garlicky. We love garlic, but it cut other flavors. If all you want is to taste garlic, you'll fit right in. Overall, a solid meal, but I'll be sticking with The Boiling Crab, my tried and true seafood boil joint. read more

Cajun Crab Waikiki - Seafood Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

When my brother was visiting from the mainland, this was on his list of restaurants to check out. So on a rainy Saturday when the Kona low was in full force and we had limited indoor activities, we drove over to Waikiki. There was a brief wait for a table, but as soon as we sat down, three different servers descended upon us one at a time until we put in a couple of orders of appetizers just so they would leave us alone to decide on the rest of our meal. After we placed our order for a family meal which consisted of crab legs, clams, shrimp, and sausage, it came out incredibly fast. So fast, in fact, that our appetizers never came out. We had to flag down a server to ask for the status of our initial orders. The server apologized and said it will be ready in a few minutes. It was obvious that they had forgotten. Besides the inconsistent service, the staff are super friendly and the restaurant is a great option for families with young kids. read more

My cousin had her birthday dinner here during our trip to Oahu. She chose this place because it was right across the street from our hotel and everyone was tired from walking. The seafood boil wasn't the best I've had. We shared a seafood boil with crabs and mussels, and also ordered fried mozzarella sticks, fried calamari, and fried oysters that came with seasoned fries. The fried items were good, but the seafood boil was lacking. It wasn't as flavorful as other seafood boils I've tried, and the snow crab legs were so skinny. I don't think it was worth the price. I'd only come back for the fried items. One thing I liked was that they have a wash station in the dining area, so you can wash your hands without going to the restroom. Customer service wasn't excellent. Staff weren't rude, but they weren't very attentive either. I'd say they did the bare minimum. read more

Made reservations for 6:00pm, to which we were 10 minutes late and still accommodated for. Seated immediately with multiple attentive servers at our beck and call. We were able to substitute clams for extra shrimp but I must warn you they do come with the heads still on! Our order was out within 10 minutes, super quick. The boil was flavorful and tasty. When we were done we were given a to go bag and box which was super helpful as well as a probiotic drink. read more

First night on the island and in need of a tasty meal without a long wait. We walked off the main strip and ventured closer to our hotel. Spotted Cajon Crab right above the shopping plaza next to our hotel and decided to check it out. There was no wait, which was nice but sadly the service was mediocre. Had to flag someone down to order, then to add to the order, and once again to request the check. We've dined at many seafood boil style restaurants so we were looking forward to a strong cajun flavor experience. We ordered 2 lbs white wine garlic butter sauce head on shrimp, with sausage added to the bag. Shrimp was very overcooked. Not a lot of flavor. We were still hungry so we ordered another pound , but this time ordered the peeled shrimp (paid more for that) Cajun mild. Still overcooked, more flavor than our first order but still lacking. Pros: chicken tenders, garlic fries, and sweet potato fries were decent. They also brought out a complimentary dessert of pineapple slices. I have a severe allergy so I couldn't enjoy it, but the rest of my family loved it. We left with full bellies but a little underwhelmed. I wouldn't eat here again but it was a good choice for a quick meal. Hopefully the rest of the menu is better. read more

Located at the Waikiki Beach Walk. Parking is validated at the Embassy Suites but you will still end up paying at least $8. We walked in without a reservation but the place was not packed. Took hostess a while to seat us because they have to prepare the table with a paper tablecloth for the meal. Not sure why this took so long. Just didn't seem too welcoming. Our server wasn't really much better. Didn't check on us much or for drink refills until end of meal. Somewhat young staff here and not well-trained in service for this price point. Prices are a bit high for the amount of food you get. We got the garlic sauce and it wasn't that flavorful to season the boil. Just way too many clumps of garlic rather than the buttery part. Maybe the other cajun flavors would have been better? Couple people in our party had a really bad stomach ache the next day. Not sure if the food wasn't cooked properly. The meal ran a party of 4 about $300. I don't think the food and GI experience was worth that value. Would not come back to this option again. One positive was it looked new and modern. It just didn't live up to my expectations. Lots of better options for dinner and seafood in the area. read more

We were initially supposed to go to Ginza Tonkatsu on Beachwalk, but they had a power outage, so we ended up walking over here, 1 block over on Lewers. In the same building as Yard house, on second floor. Luckily they were open, and weren't that busy. Very spacious and clean, plenty of seating. 2 tables outside if you want to eat outside. We got seated right away. All the front of house ladies were super nice and attentive, always checking on us. Vibes were great, they were bumping some jams. We love some seafood boil, we ordered king crab boil, came with shrimp, mussels, corn, sausage, and rice. Wife was super happy with the size and portion given for the king crab. She enjoyed it here better than the last time we went to boiling crab, which is where we used to go, but she got disappointed. All was good. We smashed everything. Oh, we also ordered fries and calamari. Super good. And we also got free dessert. Nice cold pineapples on a stick! I think we may have found our go to for seafood boil while staying in Waikiki. Food was great, customer service was great, ambiance was great, location - in the middle of all the hustle n bustle in Waiks. Don't know where a good place to park would be? So, would be our go to if we only staying in Waiks? Maybe. But strongly recommend, 10/10 recommend. Grab your seafood boil fix at Cajun Crab Waikiki. read more

We had dinner here on our first night on Oahu, after walking the strip near our hotel looking for a spot without a long wait. Two nearby restaurants had big crowds, so we kept walking down Lewers Street and spotted Cajun Crab on the second floor of the shopping center. It was about 75% full, but no wait to be seated--a good sign after traveling all day. We've eaten at seafood boil spots before, so we already had an idea of what we wanted. We did have to wait a bit for our server to take our order, but when she arrived, we were ready to go. We ordered: - 2 lbs of head-on shrimp in white wine garlic butter sauce (mild) - Added sausage to the bag - Chicken tenders and garlic fries for my daughter - Later added peeled shrimp (way easier!) - Plus sweet potato fries The flavor was solid--especially the sauce. Only downside was peeling the shrimp was kind of a chore, so when we re-ordered, we went with peeled shrimp and enjoyed it way more. The sweet potato fries were hot and crispy, and the chicken tenders were kid-approved. The plastic gloves and bibs came in clutch since we didn't notice a wash station nearby. Saved us from walking out completely sauced up. Our server was kind, though a little slow to check in once food was out. Bonus: They brought out a few pineapple slices at the end of the meal as a little complimentary dessert, which was a nice touch. Helpful Tips: - Skip the head-on shrimp unless you like peeling. - Use the gloves and bibs--they help. - There's no sink area, so clean up accordingly. - If other restaurants on the strip are slammed, this is a great backup with no crazy wait. read more

I've stopped to eat here twice now and the service has been amazing both times. (Rjae is the best). I liked the sauce spice levels and flavor options, and I super liked being able to get sauces on the side for french fry dipping. read more

The wife and I wanted to give this place a try. You can smell the food from outside. This place is upstairs on the 2nd floor of the complex. We got seated right away. The food was really good. The wife got the calamari with sweet potato truffle fries and I got coconut shrimp with onion rings. The food was really good. They have outside seating as well. Our waitress was super friendly and service was fast. Place has a cool laidback atmosphere. Cheers read more

Decided to do a celebratory meal and wanted to try a new crab place, so we decided to do a night in Waikiki. This place is pretty close to the Royal Hawaiian Center, where you can park & walk over (As of May 2025 - Kama'aina: $25 purch IN Royal Hawaiian for 3 hours free parking). The service was friendly, and the sauce we ordered (House Original) was flavorful and had a nice slow heat, because we ordered the Medium spice level. The only damper to the meal were the gnat flies buzzing around our feast, like little annoying vultures. I noticed the fly swishing lessened once other customers were getting their food, and we were about done anyway. Not pictured is the damage we did... it was pure carnage with two lonely pieces of sauced up corn left behind... I almost went for it, but I was happily full from the feast we had. I think I was in a food coma because I totally spaced and forgot about Kama'aina discount... I think they accept so make sure you ask about that (and show your ID). read more

Kamaaina 5% discount - Cheeeeee.... and the Family style pack is a good option- comes with 2 drinks and one small ice cream--- its in a cup and not as advertised like a tube and overly sweet ....however the seafood boil was satisfying and service was good!!! Dog friendly since there is outdoor seating which I prefer so I dont smell like a Cajun crab when I finish! Nice place to chill and people watch as you eat!! read more

The food here is the best seafood we have had in Hawaii. We had the lobster combo, with peeled shrimp, with the collab sauce, and sweet potato fries. We chose the medium spice level and it was perfect. The service was very fast and very friendly. The lady that prepared the lobster at our table didn't leave anything for us to crack or pick out. All the lobster meat was ready to eat. Very casual and laid back atmosphere. Recommend reserve a table during busy times. Prices were very reasonable! read more

Walking into the restaurant, the first thing I noticed was how clean the place looks. The have a wild space and the tables are well spaced. We ordered 2 combos, the lobster and the king crab legs with the signature/dry rubbed and white wine garlic butter sauces. The flavor was really good and the seafood was fresh. The servers were smiling when ordering and offer to dismantle the lobster. Great help. I didnt give the full 5 stars because it was a little pricey and the portion was a tad small for my fat ass. Overall, worth trying out read more

We did like the medium sauce flavoring better than the spicy but both were still great! read more

I will start my review by saying that not only did they not have a table ready for us at the time we made the reservation for, they were bad mouthing Yelp and the "system" rather than taking responsibility for not having the table ready. I will add the rest of the review once we get seated and try the food. We finally got our seat, outside, as they did not have a table reserved. When we asked to order, the waitress said that she will be with us in 5 minutes. They really don't know what they are doing We finally ordered and were informed that gratuity is added on the check for parties of larger than 6. Perhaps that's why they don't care to provide service to parties of large size since they are going to add the tip regardless of service The food was not bad, it was average, unfortunately it does not makeup for the experience. I will increase it from one start to two. read more

We came here with a party of 15 after celebrating a fantastic wedding. Quite a big and noisy group and yet we weren't made to feel unwelcome. The staff here was kind and the food was incredible. I was so impressed by the service that I actually took a moment to find the manager to tell her how much I appreciated her staff. They were very attentive to our table and ensured that our drinks were full and that our food came out to us in a timely manner. Everyone said that their food was tasty and that they would gladly come back. Generous and tasty portions of food at a reasonable price. I would highly recommend visiting this place. read more

So good and fantastic! It's the flavor that Koreans have been looking for! The Kauai prawns are big and rich in flavor, making them absolutely delicious. The combo looked great too, but we ordered only shrimp with added sausage, potatoes, corn, and coconut shrimp. The Korean staff took our order in Korean, which made it super convenient! 한국인들이 찾던 그맛이에요. 새우는 kauai prawn이 크고 더 녹진해서 맛있어요! 콤보도 맛있어 보이지만 저희는 새우만으로만 구성해서 소세지, 감자, 옥수수 추가에 coconut shrimp추가해서 먹었습니다. 한국인 직원들이 한국어로 주문도 받아줘서 너무 편했습니다!! read more

We made a reservation in Waikiki. The location was difficult to find. We called to let them know we were confused about their location and were going to be a few minutes late. It was no problem-then I asked for directions and the directions she gave us mis information. Eventually we located the restaurant. After being seated it took them 33 minutes to ask for our order. There were 3 servers and the entire restaurant was full. It took another 20-25 minutes to get our food and one of the orders was incorrect. They corrected the order. By this time we were extremely frustrated. Waitress never checked on us, we had to ask for refill on drink and water. Food taste was good, portions were large, which was nice. Service was awful. We will not eat here again. If you can tolerate wait time and confused staff-go for it! read more

I needed to kill time before my next flight so i took the bus from the Honolulu airport to this restaurant for my last meal in Waikiki. Didn't even realize this restaurant had only just opened up 4 weeks ago so it's brand new. Upon arrival, we were able to be seated immediately although I'm not sure why their website was showing we needed a reservation. Either way we called ahead of time and let them know we'd be dining it. I wish we could've made it on time for their lunch specials but luckily their combos feed 2. We got the snow crab legs and substituted the live clams for more mussels. You have the option of getting a side of Hawaiian roll bread or rice. We got the collab sauce at medium level which was just right. The flavor was average and the shrimp is head on only just an fyi. At the end we were offered a wedge of pineapple for free which was pretty nice. Also, i love that they have a sink in the middle for you to wash your hands afterwards. If you're looking to go shopping or get a massage (right next door) it's all located within walking distance so it's located in a good area with other restaurants nearby. Overall, left satisfied with my meal. read more
