I am so in love with this little hole in the wall in Pomona - my brother first introduced it to me…read moreabout two years ago, and I just realized I never left a review. The ratings of this place definitely do not lie - everything is fresh and cooked to perfection! I tend to always get the shrimps ceviche and the shrimp tacos! The shrimp ceviche is always extremely fresh and flavorful - I'm not sure how they do it, but it is very unique compared to other ceviche spots Ive been to. The shrimp tacos are always very delicious as well. They deep fry it and the serving size is very worth it. I also love how they give you a bunch of avocado and limes on the side to pair with your food (they do not charge you extra for this). The people who work here are always extremely happy and welcoming - which makes the experience all the more worth it! 10/10 we'll definitely be back again!!

Not sure if I want to call that downtown but it felt like it. The place looks shady from the outside for sure. But the food? No doubt about it. Some of the best sea food you'll find this side of town and even further West! Try it! Service is fast and friendly! If it isn't everything I've said? Come back and flag my rating as inaccurate. I dare you!

Ordered the shrimp ceviche cooked in lemon and it's amazing so fresh. We also ordered the Shrimp empanadas for our kids and they loved them. (They look red but aren't spicy just fyi). The shrimp wrapped in bacon were perfection served with white rice and beans. Also the shrimp cucaracha (roach shrimp) "deep fried" and those were just okay. They have some spicy green salsa like a chutney texture it's soooooooooo good and HOT. It's summer and we are going back today for a tray of the shrimp ceviche and a quart of that green sauce. ;)) I grew up in Alhambra for background and I won't be deterred by this for sake of this business and my stomach!! It's too good not to come! Do better city of Pomona. I'll post more pictures because we devoured it the first time!

I can tell they had just cooked the meat and it wasn't sitting around in a pot Somewhere. I also ordered a tower of seafood which was delicious. Everything was fresh. I love the fact that I was able to order a beer with my dinner. It just makes it all the more better. The waitress was very nice and helpful. She didn't leave us to fend for ourselves. I will definitely go back and try the huge selection of dishes. They have music playing in the background, which makes for a nice environment. Keep up the good work guys!

Kind of a hidden gem in the Downtown Pomona area. It's located down some stairs at the side of…read moreanother restaurant so it has kind of a speakeasy vibe to it. They have fresh mariscos at reasonable prices and generous portions. Their service is very friendly and fast. There's also a full service bar that has a pretty solid selection. I came here and got the tostada mixto (fish, shrimp, clams) and a fish taco. What came to my table was a pretty large pile of ceviche served with some extra tostada shells. The taco was very large as well. I ordered a Modelo to wash all of this down. Just a really great place for drinks and some casua, great tasting mariscos. I'm a big fan.

Tuna Tostadas are also delicious ( a bit over sauced ) but very, very good. Wood paneled ceilings, grungy noir chic design, downstairs lounge & hip music give it a 2026 Great Gatsby vibe.

As you can see from list, we ordered so much delicious food and it's days later and we're still eating left overs. *Posted the review and forgot to mention the LOBSTER ROLLS!!

I'm really happy to see a seafood boil restaurant open nearby, and we stopped by to try it today…read more Overall, I'm not trying to leave a negative review--just sharing a few suggestions that I hope may help. First, the seafood was served extremely hot. Putting boiling-hot seafood directly into a plastic bag and immediately bringing it to the table made it difficult to eat, and it also raised some concerns about having food at such a high temperature in plastic. It may be better to let it rest for a minute or two before serving. This could also give the seafood more time to absorb the sauce and flavor. Second, the sauce felt very oily, but it didn't have enough of a rich, buttery flavor. The seasoning also seemed somewhat separated from the seafood instead of coating it well. Adjusting the oil-to-butter ratio and allowing the sauce to blend more thoroughly with the seafood could make it much more flavorful. I sincerely hope the restaurant will consider these suggestions. We're happy to have a new seafood boil option nearby and hope it continues to improve!

For years, we've never had any major issues with Kickin' Crab. And on the rare occasion something…read morewasn't right, they always made it right for us. Our usual order is 1lb of shrimp and 1lb of mussels, and we've always been happy with it. This time, we decided to try the Combo #2 because we wanted to add crab legs. We ordered three combo bags, each with shrimp, mussels, and crab legs. Unfortunately, it didn't feel like there was anywhere close to 1lb each of shrimp and mussels in the bags. I can't prove it, so I can only share our experience, but it honestly felt like there were fewer than 15 shrimp in the bag. For the first time ever, we finished our meal and were still hungry afterward. Based on this experience, I wouldn't recommend ordering the combo bag. Not only did it seem like there was significantly less food, but with all the ingredients piled together, some items ended up overcooked. We were really disappointed because we've had consistently good experiences with multiple locations here over the years. Hopefully this was just an off day, but we'll be sticking with ordering the seafood separately next time.

A couple weeks ago, we finally made it to dinner here, and I'm impressed…read more We started with apps: fried oysters (because I always like), and the coconut snails. Let me say the snails were a highlight. Surprisingly tender and flavorful. Sometimes, snails can have a livery / dirt / bitter flavor, but not these. And we were lucky rice wasn't on the table, because we would have stuffed ourselves eating rice with that wonderful sauce. Next comes the boil itself. My wife insisted on "no-spice" (ugh). But I got a side of the house sauce with med-spice. Let me tell you. That sauce. Again, good thing no rice on the table, because I'm already drowning everything in that sauce. Esp the garlic bread. The seafood was fine. You're not at the pier / Hawaiian beach / HK wet market fresh off the boat & straight into your mouth scenario. But fine. We're planning to be there again tomorrow. BTW, that boy scout selling popcorn a few years ago? He made it. He's now an Eagle Scout. Thanks again for the icy refreshing drinks on a hot day.

Even while staying busy, she made sure we had everything we needed and checked on us regularly. Great service like that really elevates the whole dining experience.

05/24/26 Sunday…read more Stars: 4.5/5 Our friends booked this venue for their wedding reception. Sea Queen has a restaurant side and a banquet hall side. We had the banquet hall side and it was able to accommodate 200 guests. They had the place set up early and allowed the wedding party to come in advance to drop off drinks, decor, etc. They allowed us to bring food and alcohol. They also prepaid for drinks from the bar so folks could order from a bartender. Only a few dishes were ordered (since there was other food from an outside catering vendor) and I only got to try it after it was cold so I can't give a wholistic review on the food they serve, but I really liked the leaf wrapped beef with Banh Hoi (vermicelli sheet) and the mango salad! My one complaint is the women's bathroom. Two (out of 3) of the stalls can't lock so the girls had to help each other hold the doors closed. However, it was mostly clean and had toilet paper in stock. +They offer takeout containers for leftovers from the party. +Very kind and accommodating staff.
