Pros: Ambiance could not have been better the day we went. There was some really fun karaoke going on, and it was really entertaining. Service was great. Very friendly people, and the food came out timely and piping hot. The food itself was awesome. It was hot, buttery, covered with garlic, and the seafood wasn't overcooked or anything. Just delicious. Cons: The mussels weren't good. They were too big and not very juicy. Maybe they were from another ocean than we were used to, but we did not enjoy them. Tips: Skip the mussels if you can, but definitely go all out. This place was amazing. read more

Bit of a strange mix. The food was absolutely delicious Gumbo nice and spicy, great flavor The fish and shrimp were breaded and fried perfectly The service was fast and attentive But the restaurant has no decor or styling. Apart from the name and some beads out front, it could have been any generic spot But if you want great food, check it out read more

The service was okay. There were two people taking care of our group, a waitress and a bar tender. It was Friday night. Why weren't there more people there? We even saw a family leave telling the server they were going somewhere else. I think they have good bones, but they need someone to come in and help them step up. read more

Came with a bunch of friends for lunch! It was around 1230p and the restaurant wasn't busy. They do happy hour so drinks was 25% off. I got a sunrise and it was really good. Ordered their king jr (shrimp, snow crab, potato, sausage and corn) then added a pound of green mussels and a side of rice. Their shabang sauce is all their sauces mixed together and it has a great flavor. My only thing was that I wanted it extra hot and it came out mild. So I asked for hot sauce which helped give my sauce a kick. My group are big rice eaters so when ordering the next round, we had to wait a while for the next batch of rice to be ready. Safe to say, they didnt expect that to happen. Overall a good experience. read more

Went on a Sunday evening. Apparently someone did not show up to work. So one waitress and one host/bar guy! They were running. It was obvious what happened but they did a phenomenal job all the while apologizing for the delays. Given the circumstances service was great. Food came out in a timely manner and was delicious! Yes I do recommend. read more

I had to write a review about this place as this restaurant was everything!! Service-Top notch and very attentive. I believe we were served by the owner or manager, but he made the experience better than it was with his kindness. Food-The Feast with the mild garlic butter sauce was amazing. The catfish, okra, and fries were cooked to order and to perfection. We ended the meal with dessert. The beignet sundae was hot and amazing, but we ate it too fast so no pics You have to go here if you want some great seafood and service. They even have a full bar and drink specials. Worth the drive and the traffic. read more

Service was average. The shrimp tasted average. I bit one shrimp, then boxed up the food Togo. I was not able to enjoy the food after reheating it the next day. The ambience of the restaurant was like a crab house. I do not recommend this restaurant at this time. read more

Food was plentiful and did not skimp on flavor. For me, mild heat was no heat and medium heat was a one. 5 adults shared a pound of crawfish, and 3 platters and had extra to spare! read more

King Cajun Crawfish - Good eats!! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I love a good hole in the wall. I went with my family on a Wednesday night. We decided to have an early dinner and it wasn't packed at all. The place was quaint and the service was quick. The KC sauce was so delicious but more on the sweeter said. I like a bit of tang so ask for some lemons. The season was also thick and not oily. I would definitely revisit. read more

Highly Recommend! My husband and just arrived in Orlando and he wanted to check this place out. The food is amazing but service even better. The server( Austin) is as helpful and just an overall nice guy. The manager was very accommodating to everyone's request. The food is fantastic- I got the popcorn shrimp platter with corn and hushpuppies. The breading is nice and light, delicious. My husband got the etouffee with shrimp, crawfish and added on basa fish. He loved it. I highly recommend tourists get this for take out or go eat here. Much more affordable than the parks and it's delicious. read more

Fabulous seafood boils! Be aware this is not FAST food. Get a drink relax and pretend you are in NOLA. Staff was quite limited when we went but the two that are there hustled and made sure everything was to our liking. The boils were fabulous and my land food only wife had chicken tenders and she said they were really good. Highly recommend as long as you are patient. read more

My go-to seafood boil place. Absolutely delicious. They have different spice levels & flavors. Out of all the seafood boil places i've tried in Orlando, this one is the best so far. read more

King Cajun Crawfish is a place I would love to come on a regular basis to! I just love me a good seafood boil restaurant. I ordered the king feast pictured in my review. The Shabang sauce just can't be replicated anywhere else - only King Cajun Crawfish can do this sauce justice. The crab legs were so fresh, I had no problem cracking the legs and sliding the meat right out. The shrimp dipped in my sauce is so delicious, and I tried a crawfish from my friend dipped in the shabang sauce and it was so fresh and tasty. We also had some soup, which was delicious as an appetizer. The ambiance is that of a local seafood bar, clean and spacious. Our server was so attentive to us and made some pretty good recommendations to my friend on which oyster to choose. Will definitely come back again soon! read more

I've dined at this location twice and they were both different experiences due to having live crawfish and frozen crawfish. The time I dined here with live crawfish, I could not stop eating! I thought their sauce and the way they prepared everything was the best crawfish I ever had. On my last visit, they didn't have live crawfish. They only had frozen crawfish. The prices for frozen aren't advertised on their menus but it was a nice surprise that the price point per pound was lower. I didn't think it was as good as the first time I dined here with live but it was still a good meal. The sauce seemed thinner too. Service has been great both times. I think they don't have a lot of staff on site but they do provide you the space you need when you're messy and eating. They are present and provide the service you are looking for when dining out. read more

Ordered takeout. Admittedly was surprised by the greenish color of the étouffée but it still tasted good although a little more soupy than I would prefer. We also ordered the seafood combo platter which was really filling. The hush puppies were unexpected highlight-moist inside and just the right size. All the seafood was good-not overcooked. Couldn't eat it all in one sitting so looking forward to the leftovers later. read more

I'm a seafood lover and I can confirm this is by far the best seafood I've had in Orlando. The flavor of the boil was perfect, jumbo shrimp, crawfish, sausage, egg, corn and snow crab. Yum yum yum!! For appetizer we had mozzarella cheese sticks that were pretty basic but the coconut butterfly shrimp was a hit with the sweet chili pineapple dipping sauce & sweet potato fries were perfect For dessert we had to try the beignets and they were fluffy and paired well with the vanilla ice cream. Can't wait to try the cheese cake next. We also ordered drinks as the Doctor Phillips location has a bar and let me tell you all you need is one of the Orange Zombie officer and you'll be lit. Service was amazing & the ambiance was very chill and family friendly. read more

I absolutely love king Cajun crawfish! I work downtown, so I first came upon that location, which was very good but small. Then I happened to find out there was one that had opened up on Turkey Lake Road, which was actually closer to me. The service the ambience was amazing at this location. I always get the King's feast, which has never disappointed. My sister and I always order an extra snow crab leg with the shabang sauce. We also like this location better because they serve drinks and it's not over crowded. The server there which I believe from the other reviews his name is Austin is always so nice and very attentive. If you're looking for a great seafood spot with decent pricing, good food, good service....this location is it! read more

Best seafood boil in Orlando. Shebang sauce amazing. Extra spicy. All you need. Will be back.

Wonderful seasoning and lovely people!!! We're so glad we found this place! We got the Dungeoness Combo with a lobster tail and it was absolutely divine-- great seasoning, and the meat falls right off the shell. One of the BEST seafood boil experiences so far!!! read more

AMAZING! wow. Just so flavorful! I will be back. Got the shrimp and crawfish with the whole shebang and man I just keep thinking about the sauce it's different but in a good way. I will be back! read more

The shabang sauce, is sooo addicting!! Its thick, creamy, slightly cheesy. We got the shellfish combo: snowcrab, crawfish, shrimp and corn, potatoes, sausage. The platter is huge and deff could be sharable for 2 people. I ordered a side of 2 snowcrab clusters for $35 and that was more than enough food. The gumbo is delicious as well! They have 2 locations in this area, one in Turkey Lake and one on I drive. The original location is near downtown. read more

This was an accidental find. We had directions to another restaurant but didn't want a Universal experience. There are a few options in this shopping mall setting. This looked most attractive to us. Parking is busy, so prepare to walk a short distance. It's worth it. We had a genuinely pleasant experience. The staff, other customers, and the food all are worthy of comment. The establishment is clean. The portions are huge. I did the jambalaya plus seasoned fries plus sausage plus an oyster po boy! Omg! Every element was delicious. I asked for medium on the jambalaya and it was a little more than I liked. Next time for a midwestern type I'd suggest mild which is the lowest setting! The po boy was massive, delicious and competes directly with the French Quarter in New Orleans. We also had at the table the etouffee and crawfish. Our server was attentive and very helpful. Plan on a great evening and I hope you go! read more

We needed some seafood boil and this was convenient from our hotel. Everything tasted good -we got the not spicy garlic seasoning. We had shrimp and mussels and scallops and it was all well prepared. The sweet tea was so sweet it hurt our teeth! read more

Always great food ! I love to order the Kings feast with Shabang sauce Doesn't hurt to add an extra half pound of no head shrimp too lol read more

Love the food and service- great specials and recommendations. The flavor was amazing and the seafood was fresh!

Loved the variety of menu items here and the service was very good. To be fair, we were the only dining customers on a late Sunday night during a pandemic. Staff wasn't wearing masks but we were the only ones in the restaurant. Place is clean and well kept. Server let us know it wasn't crawfish season so they only had frozen crawfish. They brought out gloves and a nice size bucket for our damages. We ordered a mixed seafood platter that had a cluster of snow crab legs, 6 shrimp, 1 LB of crawfish, and sausage plus 2 corn and 2 potatoes. We did garlic butter and ragin Cajun sauce on that. It was delicious and a perfect mix of spicy, garlicky saltyness. We also got an extra lb of crawfish in the shebang sauce which starts off amazing with some tangy lemony flavors but did get a bit overwhelming in richness towards the end. The crawfish were big sizes and though frozen, still tasted great. The snow crab legs were on the thinner side. The shrimp were plump. The sausage was very flavorful. Overall a very very good place for seafood boil. Comparable to my favorite place New Orleans Cajun Crawfish on Colonial Drive. read more

King Cajun Crawfish - Mixed seafood platter - snow crab cluster, shrimp, crawfish, sausage plus corn and potato with an extra lb of crawfish in shebang sauce - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Orlando, Florida

During the lockdown due to Covid, we were able to order to go a few times here at King Cajun with their curbside pick up. Crab legs were a hit and miss for me, but the crawfish on the other hand was delicious. We got their house seasoning. Great combination of flavors that worked well together. Potatoes and corn were also a great addition to the platter. If you love crawfish like I do, this is the spot to satisfy that craving. Nicely packaged where it did not leak and it was still hot when I got home to enjoy it. I will be coming back here to dine-in in the near future. read more

I highly recommend! Food is amazing and customer service is top tier. Try out the powered beignets!

My husband and I were very pleased with our visit to King Cajun. We've heard very much about it and it definitely lived up to the hype. When we went, we were surprised to see the entire restaurant empty, us being the only dine in customers at the time. That being said, service was decent and the food came out fast. We tried a small order of the gumbo, which was a good portion and tasty. If you like the flavor of cloves, you'll definitely love the gumbo. My husband ordered the fried shrimp platter with fries and hush puppies. The shrimp in the cornmeal batter was amazing and perfectly crispy. I hope we can buy a catering size of these sometime! I ordered the boiled shellfish combo in the shabang sauce. The snow crab was cooked very well, where most of the crab meat was able to come out of the leg shells as one piece and didn't split. Shrimp were a great size, crawfish were also big and don't forget to dunk the heads back into the sauce and suck on them! The corn, potatoes, and sausage smothered in the shabang sauce were just big mouthfuls of WOW! Big portions definitely worth the money. Can't wait to come back here! If you love seafood this is the spot for you! read more
