Disappointed 1st time customer So I was in the area and didn't wanna drive to far or to north ridge to the other one so I figured will come here to enjoy some seafood. But to our surprise the young lady came out and told us they didn't have any sausage available. Like how are you gonna NOT have all the sausage that comes with the food Wow this was not a good start like why would you have enough of what you need your a restaurant. I would not be coming back to this one. The place was clean that's all read more

Man, old man where do I start? The place looks warm and has a identity. The place is really cozy. I like the place but as you walk in the place looks so depressing the vibe is just dead. This is my second time being there and nothing change service lack on service. We were there for an hour and a half, and we had to call the servers the service that came to us. They were more worrying on cleaning and restocking than allowing the clients to have a great experience. We ended up walking away and went to kicking crab and Lynwood. The music was very chill. read more

Music always on point, seafood flavor is the best and never over cooked. Margaritas and michelada supper taste too! Love the free dessert. Servers are attentive and quick. read more

My husband and I were on a mission to find a Cajun/Creole spot that could compete with Boiling Crab, and after our first visit to Stinkin' Crawfish, we thought we had struck gold. Spoiler alert: we hadn't. The first visit was fine, but every visit after that was a disappointment. Shrimp that were overcooked, sometimes tasting a little... aged? And the prices kept creeping up like they were trying to justify themselves. TLDR: Boiling Crab finally entered the Torrance chat, and now Stinkin' Crawfish is getting ghosted. Never coming back. read more

I have never had a bad experience since they opened. Everything is always perfect and fresh. Dine in and take out. The music options are always our speed. The waitresses are amazing and the service is always quick. read more

The cook was to LAZY to make fresh fries to add to the catfish order. Taste was so obvious that they were reheated stale fries. Poor decision and now another lost customer. read more

Customer service is okay. Food wasn't what I expected being a seafood eater. They use butter for the base instead of oil and with the butter it's very much watery and doesn't stick to your food at all. None season just right for the diabetics. No shade no tea. read more

Stinkin Crawfish - Gardena - Watery food - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Gardena, California

Shrimp seemed to be cooked way too long. They were sticking on to the shell which was very difficult to eat. Shrimps were so small aswell first time I have ever seen that at a stinkin location Refills were very hard to get even though they say unlimited the garlic noodles were unbelievably salty and excessively oily as if they made a big batch and it was just sitting there. Server seems be friendly and kind however it is way too busy for only three people to four people to be serving. Didn't like that I didn't get my change back correctly. read more

First and foremost the music was banging! I came her during happy hour. Although I did not get the drinks the seafood broil was discounted. The seafood was so good! The sauce was packed with flavor! I ordered the garlic butter medium and it was perfect! It was not crowded and this was on a Friday around lunchtime. The service was great. Also we got a complimentary dessert deep fried Oreo and ice cream which was also good. Def recommend and would be back again. read more

Very poor customer service. Waiter very rude to the guess. Bringing the wrong food to the table never came back to the table to see if we needed anything else. Hey had to have a young lady to take over to help us No one at the table was rude to him never talked back to him. He just had a problem with us being black this is a shame that we got treated this way. read more

The flavor was there but some of the shrimp I couldn't peel without it turning into mush. Way over cooked.

i WISH I could give this no stars!!! Last night my fiancé got us food after spending almost $150. He picked it up and brought it home! 1. Our corn was missing out of both bags 2. Our sausages were burnt 3. & OMG THE SAUCE!! It taste like watered down hot sauce! No garlic flavor, NOTHING! This was the worst experience I've had at stinkin crawfish & I probably will never return because of this! read more

My partner and I wanted cajun so we saw this place, great seating selection. The staff were pretty friendly. We ordered the crab boiled with mussels, potatoes, shrimp, and corn with a side order of mussels, fried corn and calamari. Service was fast and the staff were great. Unfortunately, the food was too salty, the sauce did not taste like a boil sauce and lacked any garlic flavor. When my partner and I got home we immediately felt sick, so here we are couple of days later still sick with no appetite. We will not be back Unfortunately, this seafood was not fresh. read more

3 pm Saturday party of 2 Somehow I've neverrrr been to a crab shrimp boil spot?! Spot is nice, we were able to slide into a booth. Server was helpful and pleasant. My first time so I let him pick. He ordered the crabby Shrimp combo; Tiger Shrimp, snow crab and Lobster combo with lemon pepper. Comes with fried Oreo and scoop of vanilla. You know we dessert FIRST so there are no wasted opportunities. Combo also included corn potatoes and sausage. Gloves, bib, salt and pepper, lime wedges ready. The bag hit the table and we were off. I really enjoyed everything in the bag. The lime added a nice hit of acid to the flavors. We were right by the windows and I enjoyed the hands on experience against the drizzle outside and all the ambient light. Flavors and execution were done well. Thank you! read more

I've been coming here for years but lately it's been way to spicy I usually get the medium ! Or even spicy I've had to get the mild and it's still spicy !! Can't even enjoy it without having an upset stomach read more

Was just recommended this place. When I went it was empty and quiet. The server Jessie was really nice. He had amazing customer service. The restaurant was clean and nice. I ordered snow crab legs, corn on the cob, boiled egg, and a couple strawberry margaritas. The crab leg tasted fresh however it wasn't a lot of meat inside of the crab legs, so that was a bummer, but the little bit of meat that was in there tasted good along with the garlic butter. The margaritas were fire. The fried Oreo and ice cream was pretty good too ;) I'd come back. read more

Loved the creole style seafood. Service and ambience is great. It is better than Crab shack in my opinion.

Wait was not long, food came out quickly and the music is always hitting! All of the staff is friendly and attentive.

Budget friendly lunch special. The food in this location is okay. The sauce has a great flavor and the shrimp seem fresh but the size of the sausage that come in the lunch specials and gumbo are very small compared to other restaurants. The items in the bag were not hot but warm in temperature. The mild is spicy so dont go medium unless you love heartburn. The garlic noodle definitely needed more garlic flavor and the portion was small. Seems like its premade and reheated which make the noodles dry. Same goes for the gumbo seemed reheated and ok flavor. Overall not bad for the price but I've had way better at other location. Location gets busy during lunch time. Services was good and the offered free fried oreo ice cream desert that I passed on. read more

Parking can be tough during rush hour and the price is just right. This is my go-to for seafood boils. I used to travel to OC for seafood boil but this place knows how to do it right and they're closer to home. Embarrassingly, I come here at least once every 2 weeks with friends or my husband. Their quality is always consistently good, and the staff is always friendly. One thing I really appreciate them doing is the free dessert at the end. That's really how you kill the competition--give your clients dessert at the end so they don't need to satisfy their sweet tooth anywhere else LOL. My only qualm is that they need to put a bigger order in for oysters because they always run out by the weekend! :( other than that, solid place, good vibes, and the music is always right. Also, come to watch sports events and have good food. Happy Hour is Mon-Fri 3pm-6pm! read more

Great food & friendly staff that give great service. Music and vibes are always on point. My faves: fried catfish and fries (garlic/parm) & 1/4 lb of peeled shrimp, spicy lemon pepper and garlic butter with make it awesome! (Potatoes, sausage and corn) read more

The food's great; full of flavor, the ambiance of it is amazing, and the service is always on point. The staff is friendly, and attentive especially Bri! She always makes us feel welcome and takes care of us whenever we come. read more

Arrived a little after 12:30. Definitely not a busy crowd, however parking was slightly tight due to the other businesses in the shopping center. I haven't been to this place in awhile so it was nice to be in a restaurant not as packed. The server was kind and professional. We ordered our drinks and food. Traditional potato's, corn, sausage, peeled shrimp (12 count not 1/2lb) and crab cluster. The sauce was beyond salty, I felt like I was going to have a heart attack. My beer was lukewarm but the server gave me a pitcher of ice to sit it in and it was better after that. The crab clusters.... Smh, 5 of the legs didn't have meat, the shells were beyond soft. I'm the Queen at cracking some legs okkk and pulling out all the meat... unfortunately, I could fold the leg in half like a piece of paper and it wouldn't snap, pop, crack or nothing. The other legs had thin pieces of crab, almost like the legs were on a diet. I wanted more shrimp so I ordered to go and still just too little. I understand the inflation, pandemic etc. I firmly believe that if product isn't up to par in your eyes or it's good you wouldn't serve yourself or family, then revise your menu, remove those options until the product looks amazing enough to serve. My stars are definitely for the service and the cleanliness. Very prompt. read more

While visiting home in Los Angeles, I had the privilege of taking one of my best friends and his mother to dinner at Stinkin Crawfish. It was a great spot for fresh seafood packed with big flavors. I ordered a seafood boil, and everything came out hot, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly. The vibe was casual and lively, with a great selection of music playing throughout the meal. Service was fast and attentive. Overall, a strong four-star experience -- I'll definitely come back for another boil! read more

We went here yesterday. I've been wanting to try this place so finally we visited. The food was great! But tiger shrimp wasn't big as expected but same as normal ones. We could've left a review with 5 stars if it was everything I would say, but unfortunately it turned out not a good experience. We were only served when we asked servers to help: hammers, extra napkins, even ordering... they didn't check until we raised our hands and waited for them more minutes than others would be served. About the tips, based on this experience we didn't want to leave the tips but me as a server also we left 15%. But knowing the total was already included 15% of the tip already but without being informed, it turned out the worst experience and place we've gone. Y'all servers should've informed about 15% tips at first. read more
