Horrible Horrible Horrible. I bought 100 bucks worth of bags. Drove 40 miles back home. And all of the seafood was over cooked disgusting. Shrimp was slushy. Corn was soft and mushy. Lobster tail was stuck to the shell and only pieces came out. The next day I took the bags back and they said they will only replace the shrimp and a crab leg because I didnt call and I just brought it back in. And I might of got full on the piece of Lobster tail that is missing. Literally the whole bag was there except for that piece of Lobster. Please dont waste your money at this one in Hampton read more

The Happy Hour specials are great!! The Juicy King Crab Wings are amazing, drinks are pretty good. The service was good as well. I'll definitely be back. read more

Came here on Christmas with my daughter. I can't believe they were busy like that during a major holiday. I guess people had the same thought as me (no cooking or cleaning lol). They are located across from the AMC which was open and busy on Christmas as well so that's probably another reason why it was busy. They had old school R&B music playing, which I absolutely loved! The food was fantastic! We ordered the raw oysters, juicy crab seasoned wings and a seafood boil. They have a happy hour special Mon-Fri from 3-7pm with discounts on cocktails and apps. We ate every drip of food, it did not disappoint. I highly suggest the juicy king crab wings 10/10. Will definitely be back for another happy hour! read more

Coming here for happy hour was such a treat! All the food was fresh and very tasty. I recommend coming at the beginning of happy hour because it does fill up fast closer to the end. Our server was really nice and took care of all our needs. Yeah cause one of them had more chickpeas in it. The one on the top has slice chickpeas and one on the bottom house more I don't really care which one to eat. The one on top has the spinach rice in the bottom is chickpeas and rice. This is easier to talk. I just don't feel like typing. The serving sizes are very filling. The catfish basket doesn't really taste like catfish to me, but it is still tasty. I also think I would rather have the oysters boiled instead of fried. The wings were very tasty and the little orange sauce on the side went well with everything. My biggest complaint is the bathroom. I'm not sure what they can do about the smell, but it is not pleasant when you are trying to enjoy a meal. I would definitely come back for happy hour, but I would make sure I use the bathroom first lol read more

Service is excellent! Food is delicious! i would definitely recommend someone to come here for a nice boil and a punch !

No different from any other seafood boil but the pricing is decent for what you are getting. The seafood boil itself is flavorful and juicy but nothing too crazy. Overall I give it a 6.5/10. The service was mid. read more

Decided to come here for dinner. This is in the space of the old Peking Chinese buffet. It's very spacious. From what I've heard, they have some nights where they play music and there is a good amount of people there. They have a pretty good sized menu, with boil bags and fried options. They have happy hour everyday until 7, so that's good for the drinkers and those who like appetizers. I got the K4- which is a half of point of shrimp, half a pound of crab legs, and a half of pound of sausage. I got plenty of shrimp and sausage. I would say it's a good portion for the price. I got the juicy king crab sauce, medium. However, the sauce has no taste really. It's very liquidy but doesn't contain much flavor. Also I wasn't a fan of them serving the bag on plates like that. My waitress was very nice and helpful. She had a good amount of tables, but still was able to get to us whenever we needed. If i return I would try some of the other options besides a boil bag. read more

We always order the Tilapia baskets from here. One with regular fries and other with sweet potato fries. Two days ago, I was eating my Tilapia and took a second bite into the filet and the sudden smell of ammonia came from the filet so, I broke another filet in half and the same smell came from it and the second filet basket. When I called the restaurant, I was told it was all fresh and they denied any bad seafood. I brought the baskets back and had her smell the fish. Her face said it all! Now when you can't comment on smelling ammonia in the fish basket, you know you've been caught. If it wasn't for that and her trying her best to fix the issue, I would have quietly walked away from the restaurant. Seafood is a big proponent for allergic reactions, food borne illnesses, and contamination. This could have made someone sick if they ate it all and ignored the smell of ammonia. I hope that batch of raw filets was thrown out! The shrimp baskets that were exchanged for the Tilapia baskets were fresh! Signed a restaurant consultant. read more

If I could give zero stars I would!! The food is worst than PIER 88!! Overpriced and small serving sizes. The food is disgusting if I don't say so myself. Over cooked and no boil sauce! Never stepping foot in here again. However, the vibe was amazing! The energy was amazing ! The DJ for happy hour was amazing !! read more

Checked out Juicy King Crab House the other night and wanted to give you all a little review. We went during the middle of the week so it was very slow, which was OK by me. The host said we can sit were we wanted and they even tuned the TV to what we wanted to watch. So I'm loving the customer service thus far. The restaurant was very roomie with a banquet area for large parties in the back. The bar area looked abandoned, the restrooms needed to be renovated and smelled like a toilet overflowed. I was once told the restroom is a direct reflection of the kitchen area. So, you judge for yourself. They are still offering grand-opening specials of 15% off and free choice of appetizer (chicken wings or popcorn shrimp), so we took advantage of that. Even though the bar looked abandoned, I did see on patron sitting there. They had drafts on sale and a nice selection. Now, the food! Off the bat they don't put sausage in them. That was a big turn-off for me. We ordered a Boiled bag that had claims, crab legs and a tone of shrimp. Two pieces of corn on the cob and about 3 or 4 potatoes for only $45. It was enough to feed two, and we even had some left over. We got the garlic-butter sauce that had a little kick to it. The shrimp was succulent. the claim were plump and juicy but the crabs were skimpy. I mean I understand they're out of season but these crab legs were..........ehhhh. I'm sure they are better in summer season. Juicy King Crab house is the the blood-line of these new seafood boil restaurants. Twisted Crab in Hampton, Shack -n-Crab in Va. Beach and some other place in Newport News are the leaders in the business. In my humble opinion Juicy King Crab is not as good as these. However, the food is good, the prices are reasonable and the staff was great! Happy Yelping! read more

Juicy King Crab House - $45 Bag - Seafood Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Service was TERRIBLE! Waiter needs some customer service skills, unless you like a hood like atmosphere then this is your spot. The loud rap and sweeping around your food is A NO GO for me. I'll take twisted crab any day. read more

Don't make this mistake! Please!! It was terrible, took forever to get here and then when it did, it was just grease and watered down boil food. It was like they were running out of seasoning and decided to try and make it last 1 bag into 3. Never again. read more

Our visit here was not as pleasant as I would have hoped for. Beer was at room temperature and our food was way too salty. To be fair we arrive 30-40 mins before closing time so I presume the cooks might of rushed and double seasoned accident. The staff were great and I would definitely give it another shot read more

If I can give this place less than one I would me and my family went today and we're really excited to get crawfish. Kinda hesitant because I looked at the reviews on Google, but I still went anyway. me and my family got there and we were seated for 20 minutes with no drinks. We didn't go at peak hour. There was barely anybody there in our server had one other table. She assumed that we weren't gonna tip Which is honestly sad. Don't recommend this place. Service was awful. read more

The lobster and crab was over cooked! You're better off just doing a seafood boil at home.

Food- taste and portion for price was great! Drinks really good and strong Service was slow but only had one waitress although she was so polite and nice! Ambiance was chill vibe read more

The hubs was craving a seafood boil for dinner. We ventured out once we found out that dine in restrictions were lifted, and the state was transitioning to the next phase. During Covid-era there's masks, and 6 feet seating arrangements involved. Our booth was slightly sticky and wet, but it was wiped down once we alerted our waitress. We perused the menu, and the hubs opted for crab legs, garlic butter flavor with a medium spice level. Both of our boils came with corn, and two small potatoes doused in sauce. I chose a half pound of shrimp with the same seasoning, and a level higher in the spice department. We started our meal with a half dozen raw oysters. It's not bad once it's topped with a little horseradish and hot sauce. I'm talking to the ones that are skeptical of trying raw seafood ;) There were bits of sand in the oyster that didn't escape the wash. Our seafood boil hit our table within 10-15 minutes. The food arrived tied in a clear plastic bag. We were provided with a cute crab bib and gloves. No crab cracker was provided, so the hubs tried his best to open one until our waitress came by. My shrimp was sweet, spicy, fresh, and tasty. I wish there were more potatoes and corn, but that was additional add on cost. To soak up all the sauce, I would've liked some bread. Not sure if it was offered on the menu. We both enjoyed the crab legs. I didn't use the gloves.... But I made sure my hands were clean before digging in lol. We also ordered takeaway another time, and went to town by ordering crab legs, shrimp, add ons of mussels, corn, and potatoes. I highly recommend ordering the add ins for potatoes and corn. It's worth it to make sure none of the sauce goes to waste. Their Cajun seasoning is just delicious, and even their extremely hot spice is not overwhelmingly uncomfortable IMO lol. Since dining-in options opened up, employees are getting used to the new normal, so there are going to be some mistakes and delays in service. A whole cup of water was spilled onto the hubs, I believe due to nerves. So everyone please just be patient, kind, and understanding. Check this place out!! Support local and your stomach will thank you!!! read more

The boils here are good! The sauce is really the star of the show. Large, spacious restaurant. Service is ok. I've had quite a few things off the menu here and never been disappointed! read more

Great boil bags and happy hour specials. Friendly staff and ambiance. Great Service. Stop by!

This was my first time here at Juicy King Crab and I ordered the Fried Dinner Tilapia basket that came with 4 pcs and side of fries. You could tell the 4 pcs was just two Tilapia split into 4 pcs, so 2 pcs were meaty and cooked well but the other 2 pcs were thin and overcooked of course. read more

Everyone is kind drinks great sometimes when it's really crowded it may take a little longer but it's worth the wait I love it here. Come through read more

Ordered delivery. Food was really good and large portions. One of the better take out experiences we've had. Definitely would order again.

| $20-30 My delivery order was incorrect. I called thinking it could quickly be resolved. As I do not live far from the establishment. However, the person who answered my call was rude from the start. She was confused and didn't listen at all. I asked to speak to a manager. I could hear the rude person cursing, talking about violence and say that "she would spit in my food! " That's not only well pass ridiculous, nasty and unsanitary! The person who claimed to be a manager, lied and tried to tell me that I didn't hear what I clearly heard! Needless to say, I will never do business again here! As that ghetto ratchet behavior seemed accepted! This incident was appalling, completely egregious, uncalled for and unnecessary! read more

We are in town for the week to drop my daughter off at college and decided to grab some lunch. On our way to another seafood restaurant, this new place caught our eye and we decided to give it a try. It just opened 2 days ago and boy did we hit the jackpot. This place was amazing! We ordered 2 combos of head off shrimp and dungenes crab, a whiting meal and another cluster of crab. The flavor of the house sauce was so good, I even used the potato and corn to absorb as much as possible. The service was just as impressive as the food. I'd post pictures but there isn't anything left to show. read more

The service was quick. However the shrimp was a little overcooked and the special blend of seasonings was far too salty ! My husband couldn't finish his boil. I had to drink so much water to try and offset the taste of salt. The music was great and not too loud. read more

Loved everything about this place. The food was delicious! The service was top tier!

I've been to this place twice in one week! I l give this place 5 stars! Especially if you're enjoying the happy hour menu. The food was great and the drinks are decent sized and even a little strong, yum. They even have boil bag that includes lobster that's about $30. This place is definitely somewhere I'd return again and again. Oh and happy hour is Monday-Saturday from 3-7pm and on Sunday's til 9pm. Y'all enjoy! read more

The food was okay. I had the Juicy King Crab special sauce . The hot was more of a mild to me. I had the lobster which was a little over cooked but everything else as far as the shrimp, crawfish and crab legs were good. This was my first time checking out the place all the way from Richmond. read more

My husband and I wanted to try Juicy Crab for a while. We went on the evening of February 13th. The atmosphere was like a club that just happened to serve seafood. The loud rap music was a distraction from the meal. The customers were loud and just plain ghetto. My husband and I was waiting for the waitress for sometime and as we were about to leave she came to our table and apologized for not coming over sooner. The waitress could really could use some help because she was taking orders at the tables and closing checks of those who were leaving. I've had better bagged seafood and would not go back, nor would I recommend this so-called seafood establishment. The food was just okay. The lobster was under seasoned and over cooked. Don't throw away your money on this place. read more

I absolutely love it here!!!! I've never been to a seafood establishment with great food , that also has amazing drinks and stellar service. D is usually my waiter and he goes above and beyond each time. Eating here has definitely became a to ritual for me. read more

I had called ahead of time to adjust my pick up time. My food was hot and ready, but I was missing a side order of rice so I would be sure to double check the bag next time! When I got there it was packed which was expected for DJ night so I took my order to go. The food was terrific! read more

Really good!!! I was upset they didn't have whole blue crabs and I ordered the Dungeness crab and thought that will be whole but it was just the legs, the service was amazing, Margaritas are good on the rocks, it was a nice restaurant to get a seafood fix from lol read more

I wouldn't touch a door handle there again Fish wasn't fresh at all. Food cooked in old grease. Not a good atmosphere No season to the fish.

I've ordered about 5 times now and I look forward to dining in. I simply loved the lobster, king crab, black mussels, fried oysters, shrimp and catfish. You simply cannot go wrong here. Chow read more

My husband and mother in law picked this place to eat and it was horrible and disappointing. First our crab cakes were soooo salty and barely had crab in it. It literally tasted like they pumped Tony's seasoning into the breading to hide the little amounts of crab in there. Then my husband ordered a fried catfish. The catfish looked and tasted like tilapia. Eating a lot of seafood in my life I would know a catfish from tilapia. This was overall a very disappointing experience. Would not order again. Especially since the crab cakes that me and my MIL couldn't even eat them. read more

This was my first time going to the restaurant. The service was great and the food was really good. I LOVE the juicy special sauce. We also got a free appetizer and 15% off of our meal for the grand opening! read more

Went for grandson's birthday. Service left a LOT to be desired. Waited a long time just to order drinks and longer to order food. The food itself was very good. Getting refills took an act of congress. My wife didn't receive her meal. When we asked the server, she said she'll check. Then we saw her sitting at a table with other workers. About 15 minutes later, she brought my wife's food, at which point we told them to keep it. We had all shared food with my wife. If you have 6 or more people, they're charging a gratuity. For that automatic gratuity, you'll get good food with terrible service. read more

There was a roach dining with me, and they only gave me a 10% discount on my entire check.

Dedrick! Ask for him. He was a phenomenal server made sure we got everything we ordered and more. Very knowledgeable about the menu. As a first time visitor, explained the complete menu to me and offered a drink suggestion. Great night! read more
