    Not bad for my first time here. The market price on the seafood is kinda pricey but if you get the combos I think it's worth it. Definitely come in to share because it's just enough. It was near closing so we were seated right and away with a few minutes to decide what we wanted to eat. End up getting the Crackin Combo it came with a snow crab cluster, crawfish, sausage, corn and potatoes. I added an order of rice and Cajun fries. I liked the fact they had quality gloves that fit so your hands don't get dirty and scissors/crab cracker. The ambiance almost reminded me of the Bay Area seafood spots. I would definitely come in again when I get the cravings:)

    Good open space, we were seated quickly and staff was very attentive throughout the meal. Food was good, quite similar to other boil restaurants but we enjoyed ourselves and left full. P.S. Bring a Sharpie because you are allowed to write/sign your name anywhere in the restaurant dining area (literally the walls, the booth seats, the giant hanging shark (if you can reach it).

    If you come to Cajun Crack'n, be prepared to get messy. Like, fingers-slick-with-garlic-butter, sauce-on-your-face messy. They do provide gloves if you want them--but honestly, leaning into the chaos is part of the fun. We ordered the middle-size boil with snow crab legs, a pound of crawfish, corn, and potatoes, tossed in mild spice with garlic butter, and it was so good. They bring it in a large plastic bag drenched in sauce and you dig it out and put the shells in a mini-trash can they provide you. The crawfish can be a little tricky at first, but they give you these tiny scissors, and once you get the hang of it, it's actually pretty easy (and weirdly satisfying). This is not a first-date restaurant unless you're trying to test boundaries immediately. Sauce gets everywhere. Everywhere. I went with my family, and it was perfect for that--fun, loud, and zero pressure to be polite. We brought our kids too. There's no official kids' menu, but they do have six-piece BBQ wings and edamame, which you can order Cajun-style or sea salt. I went with sea salt since my son doesn't like spice, and it was a win. The service was great, the ambiance was fun, and bonus points: the margaritas are BIG--like actual drinking-glass sized--and totally worth the price. The beer prices were surprisingly reasonable, too. Overall: delicious food, great service, fun atmosphere, and a full-on hands-on experience. Come hungry, wear something you don't mind getting messy, and enjoy it. Highly recommend.

    Came to Cajun Crack'n on a Friday evening craving a seafood boil and was pleasantly surprised. We got seated right away, the restaurant was clean, and our waitress was quick to bring menus and waters. We went with Combo #1--3 pounds of deveined shrimp with potatoes, sausage, and corn in the spicy "everything combined" flavor. The shrimp were already peeled and perfectly cooked, which made the meal so much easier and more enjoyable. The seafood was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. The sides were a mixed bag--fries weren't my favorite, but the onion rings were excellent. Potatoes and corn soaked up all the flavor perfectly. I'd definitely come back for the seafood boil again.

    1 lb shrimp head on, 1 lb frozen crawfish and one corn. A mixture of sauces and spiciest heat level.

    I haven't been here in years! We only came here cus we was still in the area.. decided on a catfish po boy that came with fries.. went with lemon pepper seasoning. The sandwich was hot and crispy. Fries was same. Pretty good combo. Then also had hush puppies on the side which had a good seasoning to it. Overall it was a good lunch. Would want to come back for the Cajun again cus I need to refresh my memory on the sauce... can't say much about service since it was to go but she did greet me.

    The food was great. Spicy was on point and flavorful. A little pricey but it's good seafood, what do you expect. Portions were able to feed two people. Staff was friendly and fast. Appreciated that they were open late. Will eat here again.

    I had never been to this restaurant before and ordered by phone. I needed a staff member to advise me the combo come with just crawfish and claws, but they didn't recommend me one. Instead of the expected $53 for a combo 1, when I arrived to pick up my meal (identical to combo number 1), I ended up paying $78. I am very disappointed. The bill is not showing any charge price

    Combo #1 (added extra sausage!!!)

    This place is BOMB! The interior is spacious with lots of seating. Considering how messy digging into seafood boil can be, this place is super clean! Service here is quick and our waitress was super nice. Came here with a party of 8 on a Saturday. Highly recommend making a reservation, especially if you have a bigger party, cause there was a lot of people waiting for a table! Got 2 Combo #1s to share. Opted for their house special sauce and it is 100% the way to go. This was so so so yummy. This is by far my fave seafood boil place in Fresno.

    Is outdoor seating available again?

    Yes

    How does this compare to FOB or the Crawfish Guy?

    FOBs sauce is my fav. They always have crazy amount of flavor. Cajun Crackin is tasty just not as flavorful as FOB. What I can say is that my husband and I both agreed that Cajun Crackin had fresher tasting shrimp if that makes sense.

    Lord where do I even START!! This place is amazing beyond belief I'm not kidding!…read more We made a reservation for a company luncheon with 16 of us. Made it 1 week in advance and they were set and ready for us! The employees are so sweet and helpful and the food came out before the other half of the table even finished ordering I'm not kidding! The fried chicken combo (3 piece) was phenomenal! I got Mac n cheese with yams and cornbread and then added on a chili for extra $ Everything was piping hot so it was very fresh. The chicken was juicy as all hell and that flavor oh my gosh! Best fried chicken I've ever had. The yams were so sweet and flavorful all the way through, and the Mac n cheese had a nice crust with the perfect creamy texture to it! The cornbread was as good as any and the chili beans had the perfect kick! I do prefer a more soupy meat based chili myself but no complaints here! A lot of my coworkers had the fried fish and were RAVING about it! The type of fish they use really shows in the taste and quality! The spicy fried fish was good as well and the sea food gumbo was also delicious all according to the table! Prices are to be expected, it's not your cheapest option but babe it's the yummiest so get on over there! The inside is cute and cozy and they accommodated our party size nicely. They had some good music playing in the kitchen too which we appreciated! Nonetheless DONT MISS THIS PLACE! Please come support and give them your business! Not too many soul food places in Fresno so make this your go to fr!

    It was quiet when we stopped by for lunch…read more I chose the Thursday special; jerk chicken with Jamaican rice, plantain & macaroni and cheese. My food was fresh and flavorful. Service was speedy and polite. Comfortable booth seating inside, with nice artwork. Plenty of parking out front. If we lived closer I'd visit more often.

    Well, this is THE chicken place this side of Humboldt, TN, with all due respect to my Grandmother …read more The fried chicken is breaded, but not too much, fried all the way to the bone, but not burnt, & flavorful. In a word, delicious. The Mac N Cheese is baked & hot & tasty. My wife really liked the Collards & enjoyed her chicken thighs. Servers are very attentive. This place is really small & the ambiance is Dayton, OH funk (think Roger & Lakeside) which made this former Gem City resident happy. They only have a few tables so most of their business seems to be take out. Everything is cooled to order so there is a wait, but it is well worth it. I will be back to try the catfish. 5-stars

I'm not too close to Fresno but would recommend this to anyone who is in the area. I would make it a point to come back again if I were in the area for sure! My husband got the chicken and waffles while I ordered one of their specials of the day - rib tips. I got mashed potatoes and macaroni on the side (they were delicious but definitely regretted not trying other sides). The rib tips were perfect, smokey and tender. The fried chicken was sooo crispy and juicy. I do prefer crispier waffles, but it still went well with the very crispy chicken. The portions are plentiful, I had enough for a second meal.

I opted for rice instead of fries to balance all the fried food. The rice was a great choice but I did not expect the serving to be so massive. It was three of each item along with the coleslaw. The container wouldn't even close and it was given in a massive paper bag just to accommodate the weight. Huge serving and very satisfying. My favorite was surprisingly the fish, then shrimp, then oysters. I did not even come close to finishing all the fried deliciousness. I'll definitely be back to try something else and probably bring a friend to split the food with.

And you get HUUUUGE portions of everything. Truly blown away by the portions. If you want A LOT of food, you'll get it here. Great value! ORDER: Wanted chowder & crab but they had neither. Calamari: Decent! I like the onions. Triple Play (6 pieces of fish, fries & coleslaw): HUUUGE pieces of fish that were nicely moist. Tempura Veggies: Not tempura batter. Same batter as fish. Wouldn't order again. Head-On Shrimp: Fried too long so they were hard. Wish they'd been not so hard. Overall, I'm sure many will like this place, but my problem is the batter is too thick & not at all seasoned. This is somewhere between American & Chinese, but doesn't truly lean into either. Lemon or some acidic slaw are essential to cut thru the fried. Ketchup & hot sauce would help. Tartar sauce wasn't great. Having some non-battered/fried options would be really great. Still, I might try them again. Hope they reach their target audience.
