The food was amazing. Definitely recommend getting the Cap't Loui sauce! We got mild but it can get spicy . The oysters were good and they were big. Then there was our server Nicole. She was so helpful and kept us laughing throughout the night. read more

Not bad at all for a lunch special at $15.99. For just $1 more, you can get the shrimp without the heads, which is my preference. The special comes with two choices of meat, a side, and a drink. I ordered double shrimp and swapped the potatoes for extra corn. One thing I really appreciated was how flexible they were with substitutions. Most places don't allow any changes on lunch specials, so it was nice that they weren't overly strict about it. The shrimp tasted fresh, and I love that they're cleaned properly. I stopped going to Hot N Juicy because the shrimp often came out mushy, and they didn't remove the digestive tract. The quality here was noticeably better. As for the food itself, it's a solid 5 out of 5, especially for the price. However, I'm giving the overall experience 3 stars because the service could be a little better. I also prefer sitting in a booth whenever possible, so I naturally asked for one. Unfortunately, the booths are in need of some restoration or replacement. The seat cushions felt completely worn out as if the padding disappeared but the leather remained. The backrest was unstable, and I honestly felt like it might break if I leaned back too hard. There was a noticeable gap in the seat that I tried to push closed, but it didn't help. I took a photo to better show what I mean. If you're a booth person like I am, you may want to choose a regular table and chairs instead. Overall, great food, generous lunch special pricing, and fresh, well-cleaned shrimp. If they improve the service and update the booths, this place could easily earn a higher rating from me. read more

Cap't Loui is worth checking out for the lunch special alone. At $15.95, it's one of the better deals around, with two seafood choices, one side, and a drink. The sauce is easily the star of the meal -- rich, buttery, perfectly seasoned, and honestly better than most other local seafood boil places I've tried. The shrimp and crawfish were decent quality and definitely hit the spot. The service was just okay. Nothing terrible, but not especially attentive either. The biggest downside is probably the interior. The restaurant itself isn't very old, but the booths and some parts of the dining area already look pretty worn down and could really use some repairs or updating. Overall though, the food and that sauce keep me coming back. Great value for lunch and definitely one of the better seafood boil spots in town. read more

Cap’t Loui Henderson - Lunch special - crawfish and ez peel shrimp - Seafood Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Cap't Loui is a fun place to dine in Vegas. The interior is nice, with nautical decor and several TVs. They have a great selection of drinks, including adult Capri Sun cocktails in a bag. I didn't try them, but the waitress shared that they are popular. The service was great, as was the food. I did deduct a star because I wasn't a huge fan of the boil sauce here. It wasn't particularly flavorful compared to other places I've been. It was also watery, in my opinion. Other than that, the food was good and it's pretty comparable in price and overall value to other seafood boil spots. read more

I visited on a Friday night, and the place was at about 70% capacity. There were only two people handling the register, ordering, and serving, so they were incredibly busy. Fish & Chips: The texture was crispy and oily, the flavor bland. It came with ketchup, tartar, and thousand island, but no vinegar. Fries: Thin fries with a mix of both salty and sweet. 1/2 lb Shrimp Boil: This came with one potato and 1/3 corn. The flavor was just okay. You can only order by the half or full pound, and I wish they offered a combo option. read more

I'm actually surprised at the high number of reviews for this place. The food was.. fine. Nothing great. Everything lacked salt. The sauce on both seafoods was literally just butter and red pepper flakes. No flavor. We had to ask for salt. I had to ask for lemons and my seasoning was supposed to be "lemon pepper." It had zero taste of lemon. The clams had huge shells but tiny little bites. The shrimp were cleaned nice but again, needed seasoning. The rice also needed seasoning. The corn needed salt. The potatoes were blah. The service was fine. Nothing crazy. There are way better seafood "boils" in town. read more

Omg! 10/10. Went on 7/25/26 about 8:30pm and our server was amazing. I dont remember her name but she was great. It was my daughter's bday and first time ever having a seafood boil and she wanted the works and wanted to know how to eat everything and boy did she get a great lesson. Im so appreciative. The time, the service, the friendliness. You made our night, most importantly my daughter's night. Definitely a highlight of out trip from Los Angeles. We will definitely be back. Oh and the food was amazing. The taste, freshness, sauce. Everything was so good. Thank you again! read more

Cap’t Loui Henderson - Seafood Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

I do love me some fish and chips! And I was very glad when I found Cap't Loui's. It was super close to my house, and I wasn't really sure what to expect, although they had great Google ratings as well as great Yelp ratings. Place is super easy to find in shopping center. Ample parking, and nestled right in the center. You really can't miss it unless you're trying. When you walk in the door and look to your left, there's the captain and his pet grab ready to greet you. The place definitely has a seafood vibe, nuts on the walls, and just an overall rustic seafood type venue. Lots and lots of seating, tables, and booths, as well as a bar so all the bases are covered. Covered. Plus there are several widescreen TVs all over the place in case you want to look at something other than the amazing food they bring you. I ordered the captain's platter, which came with soft shell, crab, shrimp, fish, and calamari. I will say this, their french fries are top notch! And the sauces that bring out to you are second to none. My friends ordered the fish and chips plate which was huge! As well as the shrimp plate with sweet potato fries. I personally am not a sweet potato fry type person, but she said they were amazing and the shrimp worked perfectly cooked. I got to tell you, a majority of the fish and chips places I go to the fish and the fries can sometimes be greasy. This was definitely not the case here. The fish and all the other fried foods were super crisp and knock greasy at all. Honestly this will be on my list of places to go for sure! The bottom line? Hoist the sail and swab the poop deck because Cap't Loui's is definitely your go-to place for fish and chips. I am looking forward to going for oyster Tuesday and see how that fares. read more

The music was bumpin'! Nothing like diggin into a bag of food, taking delicious bites all while jammin to some 90s tunes! We were visiting from Chicago and had a taste for seafood. This is not something you can do often, unless you have money to spend like that, but its worth it. Only my hubby and I shared a bag. Crab legs were a good size. My uncle had a Po Boy and my son had chicken and fries. Everything was delicious! read more

This is the place to be on Tuesdays! They have a $1 oyster special. You can only order in half dozen or dozen increments, so at first I asked for a half and then a second. Service was quick both times. I ordered an adult capri sun drink and it was delicious, came in a festive pouch with ice cubes that lit up. The ambiance is pretty relaxed, there were a few other families dining there on a Tuesday night. Overall, a great experience, will definitely go back. read more

I don't want to sound ungrateful or rude but I'm not sure how Cap't Loui's has a high standard for their food. The service was great from our server, the ambiance is nice, and the restaurant wasn't too crazy busy when we went in last night for dinner. We were excited to try this restaurant based on the reviews about the food and the service. We were seated immediately wnd were offered water to drink while we browsed the menu and caught up with family. Their restaurant has ample space; and the decorations are similar to other seafood boil joints, so pretty familiar. Their prices are decent, you can go during lunch time and get some good deals on meals, they have a chicken option if seafood isn't your favorite. You can get up to 4 proteins I think in a boil bag; so if you want to have variety it up then you absolutely can! Oh and you can also choose headless shrimp for an extra $2 in your bag versus head on like most places. However, the taste isn't there in the food. When you choose a boil bag, your server will shake it for you before setting it down in front of you, which I guess adds to the excitement. I got the fried fish and chips with the Cajun fries. My husband and father in law got the fisherman's platter, my daughter got the chicken sandwich and my brother in law got the boiler. The spice level for the boiler bag's Cap't Loui mild was lackluster. It needs more of everything! The shrimp was decent, wasn't overcooked; didn't seem frozen or anything like that. The chicken sandwich was the medium choice with Cajun fries- and the same, not really spicy. However, their chicken looked very freshly breaded and fried, and the presentation was great. Now the baskets, you get a 2 ounce cup of tartar, ketchup and another remoulade type sauce. You get plenty of fries with your order, (in all orders). I asked for lemon for my cod, which wasn't too bad. However, the batter didn't look or taste fresh. My cod tasted overcooked, or frozen for a bit then fried again unfortunately. The fisherman's basket was okay also. Nothing crazy to write home about, but the calamari didn't taste fresh or look fresh either. Overall, the service was great from our server, they kept our drinks refilled, checked on our table constantly and engaged with us while we were there. If the food was more flavorful, and seemed a lot more fresh or homemade, I think Cap't Loui's would do much better in business. They are in a great spot, and have the potential! But I wouldn't be back! The beignets were good. read more

Came here with my family of 6 and myself on a Sunday upon placing our order rice and noodles came in and then we were told they didn't have enough spoons or forks for us to use, my kids were eating rice and noodles with their fingers. I asked the server for disposable ones she said the had them but it was only for to go orders make that make sense you are charging us a automatic gratuity fee because we are 7 and you are more worried about the to go orders where most of the time you do not get tipped. Will not be returning to this place. It was a bummer because we were actually happy that this place opened around our home. read more

Cap’t Loui Henderson - Head on shrimp, mussels, clams - Seafood Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Came to eat at this Henderson location. Service is great. They are constantly checking on you. The lemon pepper has really good flavor and a fresh finish. The captain Loui sauce is very flavorful. I got medium and it wasn't too spicy. I've had medium at other places and it was Too hot to eat. We got a side of garlic noodles and it came with ample Parmesan cheese and I believe it was tossed in butter. Definitely do not skip on the garlic noodles. You can also add noodles to your bag, but I would not recommend that because I think it's soaked up too much of the sauce. I did ask for more sauce and the waiter was kind enough to bring my bag back and put more sauce on it. Wilson was our server and he was the best! He was super tentative, nice, and was working really hard! I would definitely come back to try more things. read more

We came here looking to put a dent in seafood boil and for the most part a huge success! It's a nice space and can accommodate probably 100 people. No issues inside, it was nice enough and we were seated quickly without a reservation. Here is the meat and potatoes of this - the review. As far as the seafood boil, amazing, we destroyed a whole Dungeness crab, 2 pounds of crawfish, and a pound of clams in hot sauce like it was nobody's business- so good! As far as the chicken wings...they were ok. The fish and chips...hard no probably the worst I've tasted. I would compare the fish and chips to chucking a microwave dish, or your keys, the cat, laundry, into the oven at 3am after a bender. They will all taste the same I'm guessing, just not good. If you come here - the seafood boil is wonderful along with the garlic noodles simply fantastic. Pass on the rest and you will thoroughly enjoy. read more

Okay sooo... if you ever find yourself choosing between Cap't Loui and Hot N Juicy Crawfish... pls. Cap't Loui wins. Effortlessly. The sauce? stunning. It's buttery, garlicky, and they add the right amount of spice (they way you want it. i love mine SPICY)... and it's not giving that weird sweet thing Hot N Juicy does?? yeah no. Cap't Loui comes thru. Meaty crab legs, plenty of sausages, flavorful af, and you don't leave feelin hungry. Satisfied af.

This has become the only place i go to for seafood boils because they have a combo deal where you can buy 2lbs of seafood boil (which comes with a free corn and potato) and then you get a free side (I always choose the Cajun fries). That deal is unbeatable! The servers ALWAYS greet you when you walk in, and they are incredibly nice throughout the entire meal. The wooden walls and decor transport you to sea which match the seafood vibe! read more

So.... In my 52 years being in this human body, I HAD never had a boiled in bag anything. It always allows so good and to be honest, I love messy foods, like chili cheese fries or a wet burrito. My husband thinks the whole concept is stupid and almost everything included are things we would never eat. So, I went on Yelp and Google and all the resources to find the best place to try this that's near me. Cap't Loui is 5 minutes away from me and also next to the place where I've been going to get my nails done. Perfect! I went during lunch and got the special that had shrimp with the heads off. I got the Loui sauce hot. I ordered eggs as an add on. First of all, I felt like the portion was large. The corn and potatoes are super filling. Adding the eggs was because I love eggs and I've been upping my protein intake. I was stuffed and didn't think I could finish it all. It tasted so good so I kept going. I had fears that the potato would be underdone and hard, but it was perfect! Corn was still crunchy, everything was chefs kiss. My server was really sweet. I told her I had never been there before and didn't really know what to do. She had brought over a bucket and I was just looking at it like, uhhhhh. She had also given me a little paper basket that I was putting the corn leftover in. I'll be back for sure. read more

I usually go to hot n juicy but wanted to try out this new place near me. I went during their lunch special hour which I recommend since it is a bit cheaper than their regular prices. I didn't expect much since I loved hot n juicy, but boy was I surprised!! Their sauce is SO GOOOD. I got the shrimp with their mild special sauce. 10/10. Shrimp was fresh as well. The sauce was buttery, savory, with a hint of zest. Delicious. Only complaint is that there is too little sauce! Yea they were a bit skimpy on the sauce but I made it work. Calamari basket was okay but the fries that came with it were really crispy and good. The calamari had a weird oily after taste so I might skip on that in the future and just get the lemon pepper fries. The resturant was pretty big and had lot of seating. When I came it wasn't too crowded. Our server was super helpful and explained the menu to us. Overall I might rank this higher than hot n juicy based off the sauce. Definitely my go to. read more

Came here on a Tuesday and got to experience their special for Oysters! Only $1 each. They were amazing too, so fresh with no weird fishy or briney aftertaste. We also ordered a pound of mussels, as well as a pound of shrimp both with their capt loui sauce and it was so good. Many times when you go to a boil, they overcook the protein, but these were cooked perfectly, easy to peel, and delicious. For those coming soon, they have a special for a whole lobster. The special is $28.99 for a live lobster and it, as well, was cooked perfectly and SAUCED UP. Value is the key word, everything was quality and value and worth every penny (everything was very well priced at that). We will definitely be back and highly suggest it to anyone looking for an amazing boil with great service, in a great atmosphere. read more

This was my first time eating their food, I wish my experience was better. I ordered to go, fish n chips (chips-lemon pepper flavor fries) and calamari w/sweet potato fries. First of all staff was nice but on the other hand the food was a huge disappointment. The fish had more breading than fish, no flavor & over cooked. I took a few bites of the fish, at least that's what I thought it was but it was ALL breading! The fries were not seasoned with lemon pepper like I ordered...another huge disappointment. The calamari was over cooked, rubbery and no favor. I'm sorry but I have no positive feedback with the food. If I didn't have an appointment to be at, I would have returned the entire order. On a good note, they do offer one dollar oysters on Tuesdays. Don't know if I'll try it but that's an FYI for anyone reading this review. read more

My boyfriend had been wanting to go to a crab boil for some time, and I thought fathers day would be a great time to finally fulfill that wish. I used to like hot and juicy near my home, but they stopped maintaining the space and the booths had seen better days. Their was another spot viking boiling seafood which was clean and a less rustic in vibe, but I was not a fan of the signature sauce. So I hoped that third time would be the charm in the battle of the south side crab boils. The inside is spacious, so they are ready for a large volume of people without being crammed to close. The tables and seats were clean and comfortable. No ripped seats here hanging on for life. We ordered half a pound shrimp, half a pound snow crab, half a pound of clamsa, half a pound crayfish and a side of garlic noodles. We initially had our baby with us (before it became clear he was to wild for a restaurant that day and I quickly dropped him off to be watched at home) so we had ordered two sauces. We had them on side instead of cooked in the bag. One was an extra cost. When we got the seafood I realized I didnt have a good concept of the size of a half pound. If you are sharing an item with anyone I recommend ordering a full pound. This is because they mark some of the items up a lot for the half pound. For example we got the shrimp with head off for for 15 for a half pound, when a whole pound is 21. Since we wanted another half pound bag we paid 30 dollars for a pound instead of 21....that sucked not gonna lie. We also did the same for the snow crab. So 52 dollars instead of 46. So we paid an extra 16 total for that mistake. This was all a bit annoying but what actually got me upset was that with the other bag we would again get a sauce, but we had ordered two sauces initially. We asked if our 2nd extra sauce could just not be charged out as we didnt need a third sauce to use for this second bag. The answer was no its already in the system...what kind of restaurant a system that prior to finalizing the dinner the check cannot be adjusted? An extra sauce is 6 dollars mind you. If it weren't a special occasion I honestly would have probably not made the extra order for 2nd bag because I was urked by being upcharged so much, and the lack of flexibility. The actual sauces were really good, I will give them that we got both the mild lemon and the medium spice house sauce. For the third sauce we basically got just because we were going to be charged regardless we got the mild house sauce. I preferred the medium. I think the spice added more flavor and not just heat that balanced out the other seasoning. The clams were a bit more attached the shell, and very thick shell clams so a lot of the weight was in the shall more than normal. They put a potato and corn in eat bag as well. I enjoyed the garlic noodles and thought it was a fun addition to this style of food. You can have them come on the side or in the bag. If we did the sauce in the bag I would probably have the noodles come in the bag as well. Overall the cleanliness, comfort, and flavor would have me return. I just will be more mindful how I order next time to get the best pricing. read more

Wife and I wanted to try another seafood boil place and we found this new place on yelp. Thankfully we did because this place was on POINT! We came right when they opened, and they were fast and helpful. We ordered our usuals that we would get at other seafood boils and this is by far, the BEST that we have had. Spices were good, Garlic Noodles as a side were very delicious. It was a bit different than the normal rice or fries order, but it worked! We devoured our food and ordered the beignets, and they were warm, fluffy and full of flavor. Definitely recommend this place for a seafood boil! read more

We first tried the Summerlin location, but the Henderson one is a lot closer! It's located in Silverado Ranch, and I'd say that parking isn't an issue in the plaza it's located in.

We like to come here for $1 oysters on Tuesday's and get the specials with no-head shrimp and lemon pepper fries! read more

5 stars! I original plan was NOT to go here to eat their seafood boil; my intent was to take full advantage of their Tuesday $1 all day oyster special. While there, what the heck - why not get a pound of live crawdaddies and headless shrimps! Not only was every bite fresh tasting, there was no "fishy" flavors and the Capt Lou sauce had the absolute ideal blend of spice and pop. An interesting characteristic I noticed is that everything had an even level of hot temp throughout the bag and remained that way the entire time we ate! I would be remiss not to mention the steal of a deal the oysters are. Each oyster schucked clean with no shell fragments and each piece was ultra meaty. Bookmark this when in LV, you will not regret. read more
