    Perfect description of this restaurant: Inefficient. Rice came after we shared the first bag of seafood (which was incomplete by the way). It feels like whenever we order -- something is missing and you really never get 100% of your order even though you wanted the all you can eat. Service was very slow. It's like a 20minute wait after you sit down to get them to take your order. Most of the asian staff were very nice, but others were just frowning and really never cared. Will we go back? More likely not.

    I've been to the one in Vegas. So thought we'd try one closer to home in Carson. Service was good. Wait staff was friendly. Didn't do much checking up on us though. Ran out of water pretty quickly at the table and it was not refilled the entire time we were eating. The main difference that I didn't like about this location vs the Vegas location, everyone shared the same bag of food. So couldn't get it the way I wanted. Had to get the Assassin level of spicy on the side. Which I was charged an additional $3 for. My friend wanted spicy, and again had to pay an additional $3 for. So an additional $6 because 2 of our group if 4 can't handle too much spice; so we had to order mild. Seems like they nickel and dime you at the Carson location; whereas the Vegas location, each person got their own bag the way they want it for the same price. $39.99 for all you can eat seafood boils not bad though. And the food was good. It was pretty loud in there. We couldn't really talk too much because of the noise level. Not just with the other patrons in the establishment but also the music playing. At one point, the noise level actually started to give me a headache. Would probably go back again, but wouldn't pay extra for the additional sauce.

    The food was good side note mix the bag before you pour it out so the flavors an sauce gets all over the seafood. This was my first time and the waitress didn't explain it. Now it's a good value for what it is. I feel what I was disappointed was their are a good amount of waitress but mine did not service us adequately. Second the tables are smooched together you are packed to close for comfort for me. Getting up to refill your own drinks and use restroom is such a tight fit. And lastly we ordered their poor excuse of beignets. Just thinking about them makes me want to gag. They oil they fry them in are so old it tasted like a fried croissant from pillsbury with powered sugar .. HARD PASS. But like I say give it a try and you decide.

    First time here but most definitely not the last. This place is awesome, from the staff to the food. Tried the all you can eat and I can barely move on how full I am. Overall, awesome experience. Joryl was very great to us.

    We like to come after work and it's not packed so we tend to beat the crowd. The boil is amazing and the service is good. We love ordering the all you can eat which allows our group to have a variety each time. Haven't made it for live crawfish season yet but we will definitely be back to try it out.

    Visited a friend in the area and this was our last stop such a great choice! We came around 6 PM on a Tuesday and hit the perfect time for unlimited shrimp, crab, clams, corn, and more. Everything was fresh and packed with flavor. Gio was our server and he was awesome. Super friendly and attentive the whole time. Service was 10/10! Loved the Hawaiian-style decor too, it totally fits the chill, beachy vibe. Plenty of free parking, which is always a plus. Great spot to end the night with good food and good company.

    Small Parking lot, Huge open space seating. It is a very cozy and welcoming ambiance. The waiter was very patient with us asking a lot of questions & indecisive because it was out first time there. It is all you can eat for $39.99/adult & $17.99/kids - however $$$ add up with drinks, add-ons, etc. Great tasting seafood though!! Highly recommend and will be going back - if & when I am in Carson! :)

    Rice, crab legs, crawfish, mussels, shrimp, garlic noodles, corn, sausage, potatoes,  eggs, onion rings, garlic fries, fried green beans.

    My 1st here was great. Nice amount of customer in the restaurant. Staff was friendly as soon as we walked in. Music playing, very lively. Our waiter G was so nice, he kept checking on us because it was our 1st time. Appetizer were good. Food was very good, especially for the price

We arrived around 8 p.m. and were the only customers at the time, which worked out perfectly since we were able to enjoy the patio with our dog. The concept is similar to California Fish Grill but better. I ordered the House Combo fish and chips with shrimp and scallops, which came with cocktail sauce, ketchup, and tartar sauce. We also started with a bowl of clam chowder to share. My husband was extra hungry and ordered both the salmon salad and a rockfish plate. Each dish came with soft yet nicely toasted garlic bread. Between the two, I preferred the rockfish over the salmon. We also upgraded our side to grilled zucchini and it was delicious! Overall, it was a really enjoyable dinner, and I'd definitely come back to try their sandwiches and tacos next time.

Attentive. Multiple kind employees checking on you during your meal. Skip the soda here: it's flat and doesn't taste right. (Management: Fix your fountain drink machine. The flavors and carbonation are off on Coke and Coke Zero). Wait time: come at opening or expect to wait 1-2 hours. You can put your name on the list and receive a text when it's ready. Recommend killing time at Del Amo mall or Tokyo central down the street. (Just give yourself time to go back before they give your table away) I wanna say this is one of the larger establishments compared to the others in OC.

Not sure if it was just bad luck or what, but I noticed people who arrived after us were getting seated before us, which was frustrating. If it wasn't for that, I would've easily given this place 5 stars. Once we got inside, everything changed. The service was amazing -- servers and bussers were constantly checking in, refilling drinks, and making sure we had everything we needed. Easily 10/10 service once you're seated. The food? Delicious. Seriously, no complaints there. Just a heads up: if you don't like garlic, this might not be your spot because they don't hold back. But overall, the flavors were on point and definitely worth it. They really don't have much competition in what they do. Just wish the front-of-house experience matched how great everything else was.

I love when servers check on you just enough without hovering. And the food came out HOT. Not warm. Not "it's been sitting." I'm talking steaming, fresh, straight-to-the-table heat -- which is exactly how a crab boil should hit.

At least the decor was "cute" pretty standard for a seafood boil and had TVs. We got 3 pounds of shrimp with the flavor mix and the spiciest level of heat in addition to some Cajun fries. The seafood was so bland and the fries were so dry with little to no seasoning.
