However, my friend is a seafood boil vet and it didn't leave her feeling impressed. Me: 8/10 Her: 7/10 I appreciate the attentive staff and their attention to cleanliness! We've been eyeing this spot for about 2 months now so I'm glad we were able to check it out.

This was my first time dining here, and unfortunately, it was a terrible experience…read more The service was extremely disappointing. The staff seemed completely unprepared to serve customers. They sighed, showed obvious frustration while taking our order, and displayed a negative attitude throughout the experience. It felt very unprofessional and made us feel unwelcome. Good customer service starts with respect, and that was completely missing today. No customer should feel uncomfortable simply for ordering food. I sincerely hope management addresses these issues and provides proper customer service training. Sadly, after this experience, I don't think I'll be returning.

The Boiling Crab is one of my all-time favorite places to eat. There's just something about it…read morethat's incredibly addictive--I always find myself coming back. This is the kind of place that's perfect for hanging out with friends rather than a date night. It's messy, fun, and meant to be shared. The biggest downside is the wait, which can get pretty long. That said, the food is absolutely worth it. If you want to save time, I highly recommend ordering ahead and picking it up to go. Personally, I prefer the shrimp over the crab. The shrimp is easier to eat and just as flavorful. And here's my pro tip: don't throw away the leftover sauce! Mix it with pasta when you get home, and you'll have another delicious meal waiting for you. Great food, great flavors, and definitely worth the wait. I'll be back again and again.

Always good here. Dark and cool inside…read more Parking at the back...i think its free during the day but turns into valet in the evening. Never a wait makes it 100x better.

Alaska seafood is located in LA and it is one of our favorites when we are craving seafood! We used…read moreto go to the location in San Pedro before it closed for construction and then we ended up finding this location which is much closer! Parking can be a bit tough at times because it's always packed! The restaurant has a lot of seating as well as a patio outside! They have a pretty decent size menu and a lot to choose from! When you walk in you wait in line and if you're ordering fish, you can pick out which one you want. After they write up your order, you pay and then they will call your number when it's ready! We normally order the tilapia fish, Camarones enchipotlados, the shrimp tempura plate, garlic bread and steamed rice. There hasn't been one time where I left hungry! They give you good portions and everything is so tasty. The fish is cooked to perfection, the shrimp and the chipotle sauce is to die for and the tempura shrimp are so yummy! Overall, this is a place where you could come over and over again and never get tired of it! If you're looking for great seafood in the LA area, definitely checkout Alaska Seafood, they will not disappoint!

I purchased a their, King salmon. Very disappointed with the quality and customer service…read more The fish was "vacuum packed" with leaky packages and bubbled packaging. Customer service was nonexistent and they wrote nasty things about my dispute. I'm sure that they have good fish, but they didn't send it to me. I spent my early life as a seafood harvester and have the best king salmon from the Alaskan Waters so I have a good idea of quality. Their product did not measure up.

actually such a good raw marinated crab spot!! I saw they were having the borahae special which…read moreserves 2 and it such a good deal imo! I had to run over asap and luckily it was still going on! we arrived close to opening time ~11:50am and since theres a parking lot w valet only ($3), we didn't have to worry about parking. im sure you can find street parking around but there was nothing in the immediate area and we were too hungry to search the ladies working there are sooo cute and kind! they checked to make sure we were enjoying the food and let us know how to eat a certain dish when we said it was our first time. it wasn't too crowded when we got there, but more people started trickling in as we ate/ left. we chose combo A from the special which includes korean crab, spicy crab, sea urchin (m), and soft tofu stew. this was definitely enough for 2 of us but they even gave us another sea urchin bowl on the house (too sweet)! everything tasted sooo fresh and although we first were hesitant about eating raw crab, once we took our first bite, we knew we could trust this spot!! the marinades they used were so flavorful (the spicy is really spicy!!) and I lovedddd how buttery and rich the uni was! the soft tofu stew was so good and comforting - we had to take it to go though bc we were so full after eating everything else. and the sides!! omg super delicious and well prepared. idk what they put in the japchae but it was delicious and unlike any other I've had before! highly recommend this place and I cannot wait to go back!!

I was teaching my niece on navigating public transportation so we took the Metro, made a transfer,…read moreand exited Wilshire/Vermont from the D-Line, and walked half a mile over. If you're driving, Crab House also has a public parking lot that is a gem in this Koreatown area where you don't have to pay or valet. Crab House specializes in Korean seafood, especially raw crab. We felt welcomed as we came in, even with the language barrier, you can tell the ladies were friendly. It was an intimate restaurant but it has dividers up so you feel a sense of privacy even when there are others nearby. The tables all had gloves, for handling the seafood. Even before reviewing the menu, I knew we had to get their raw marinated crab, since it's what they're known for. We decided to share their #9 Combo ($39.99) which comes with 2 USA Crabs and an extra small Sea Urchin rice and a Korean Potato Pancake ($8.99). Meal comes with complimentary side dishes and iced tea. Wow what a glorious spread. This was my niece's first time having raw marinated crab and she really enjoyed it. The fresh seaweed, imitation crab, and fish eggs it was served with was good too The sea urchin rice had uni, rice, quail egg, and fish eggs. Not that fresh or essential but interesting to try. The marinated raw crab was definitely the star. The Korean potato pancake was a decent addition. We both liked the crispy edge pieces but didn't like the soft soggy spots as much. Eat while fresh for maximum crispiness. We both enjoyed our meal and it was a very unique experience. We will definitely be back for more marinated raw crab and to try more of their menu.

Plus, they have a spicy salsa that's actually hella spicy! Definitely recommend trying Playita Mariscos, shoutout to the friendly staff.

This is a seafood joint on Sunset in LA/Hollywood…read more For me, I would not come again. Many reasons. First the waiting staff is bad. The guy taking orders is rude and a jerk, and does not how long an order takes. Told 5 minutes and had to wait 20z Second, the lady at the window, because they don't serve you so you pick up your food. At first was nice, but the more things I had to ask, the worse she got. Third, the food is just not that good. Not understanding what people are thinking but it was not good at all. Papas taquitos were one seasoned and not good at all. Cameron's dorado were more potato tacos, no seasoning, not fried enough, and just not good. The Pescado aguachili was basically inediblez. Way too spicy. Was told it was spicy, but this was ridiculous. After one bite my taste buds were toast and I could not eat any longer. Glad it was the last thing I tried. For me, will definitely NOT be a return customer.

I've been wanting to try this place for ages, so I finally stopped in for lunch this week. I had my…read moredog with me, so we sat outside. It was perfectly pleasant, though be warned: foot traffic passes just a few feet away. I kicked things off with a martini, which was excellent--surprisingly generous by today's standards and a real deal at $12. For starters, I had the Caesar salad. Think tuxedo at a pool party: definitely overdressed. But it was delicious, and I'd order it again--just with light dressing. The fish sandwich was fine, nothing more. I couldn't help thinking McDonald's might edge them out on the Filet-O-Fish (though it's been decades, so who knows). It wasn't bad; I'd just try something different next time.

Parking is brutal in the area so expect to be circling around for a bit. They have a late happy hour which are half off oysters which is nice! We tried a set of raw oysters - rockefeller, small but might in flavor and meatiness. Shucking was done well too. Grilled octopus - pricey for the amount you get, but cooked well. Accompaniments like potatoes were OK, but could have more mushroom. Shell pasta - the pasta was homemade cause it tasted so light. I think the sauce was a little too light for me as well, but overall still a solid dish. Cioppino - Also a little lighter in flavor and I think just smaller in size in comparison to price. Seafood is fresh though, and that's clear in every dish here. Lonely Louie - the star of the night. I loved how fresh and bright this was. Everything mixed so well together and would definitely be getting this again. Atlantic Pie - their version of a key lime pie and was a tangy, nice finisher to the meal.

We had such a delicious meal here!! We made rezzies in advance for lunch and they seated us within…read moreabout five minutes of us arriving. We sat at the high top tables along the side of the wall across from the bar. Really cool and casual interior, doesn't feel pretentious whatsoever. Warm and friendly staff. I was worried when looking at their menu online that they only had wine since I was craving a cocktail, but alas they do have cocktails! They have martinis or margaritas. I went with a martini and they ask how you like it so I got mine with gin, an olive and a twist. It was made perfectly and it was so good! We ordered 8 oysters from the specials menu (they have it written inside on chalkboard), the plate of frites, smoked trout dip, and a tuna aguachile dish they had on their specials menu. It was a small table but we got everything to fit because they smartly have a holder to lift the tray above the table which helps. Everything looked beautiful when it came out! The oysters were great, salty but not overly briney. The smoked trout dip with the roe on top was delicious, the buttery ritz crackers pair with it so nicely. I would get that again for sure. The aguachile was good as well, it had quite the kick to it too. And honestly fries are fries, yes, but these fries were maybe some of the best ones I've ever had. Perfectly fried to a crisp and salty. I'll dream of those fries. And such a perfect portion of them for sharing with a friend. I loved our time here!

Found Oyster has become one of my favorite seafood restaurants in Los Angeles, I first took my wife…read morehere for her birthday a couple years ago and now we just keep going back. The menu changes enough to keep every visit interesting, especially the changing oyster selection. This time we had the Lil Namskaket oysters, which were clean, briny, and slightly sweet. Since we shared just about everything in our group of 4 this time, I got to try a wide variety of dishes. The Jonah crab cocktail was a highlight and ended up being my favorite shared plate. The tuna aguachile was bright and refreshing, the Sicilian crudo let the quality of the fish shine, the smoked trout dip (a repeat because it's so good) was creamy and smoky and was paired with crackers, and the scallop tostada was fresh and beautifully balanced. The two dishes that keep bringing me back, though, are the chowdaaa and the lobster bisque roll. As someone who grew up in New England, I'm pretty picky about my lobster rolls, and this one absolutely holds its own here on the West Coast. The clam chowder is another must-order. I don't care if it's the middle of summer during a heatwave--if it's delicious, it's delicious. The fried cod sandwich was satisfying and straightforward, and even the frites were addictive enough that I kept reaching for more. We skipped dessert this time because we were stuffed, but I've had the key-lime pie before and highly recommend saving room for it if you can do it. What I appreciate most about Found Oyster is its consistency. Every single time, the food has been outstanding, the service has always been friendly, and it's a place I genuinely look forward to returning to. If you're a seafood fan, this one absolutely deserves a visit. Street parking can be tough so plan accordingly. They do walk-ins but I'd recommend making a reservation, especially if more than 2 of you are going. Inside seating and bar seating are available but for larger groups, they'll seat you out on the patio.
