It's clear they take pride in their little establishment. It is small, so be sure to reserve if you can! I wasn't as fond of the house sauce as I am at other places, and some of the crab pieces were a bit hollow. What it lacked in some spots, it made up in others; tons of variety, like poutine and pasta and salads. A solid choice for the west end, but if you're willing to go to brampton or toronto, there are other spots to consider.

Seau de Crabe was my first seafood boil in quite some time, as the last one I had gone to had…read moredisappointed me some. But this place, located in a plaza on the southeast corner of Mavis & Eglinton, dispelled any negative notions I had about seafood boil restaurants. The place was very cozy, as myself and my three other lunch companions fit into a booth. We arrived right when the place opened, but soon space was getting limited as the lunch rush came to pass. And we could see why throughout our meal. We all ordered non-alcoholic mojitos first, with our choice of fruit syrup flavour; I selected pineapple. Then we each ordered our respective boil buckets; I went with shrimp and crawfish with corn and potatoes in the restaurant's namesake sauce. The servers brought the boil bags and emptied the contents onto our place, providing a dizzy aroma of spices, oil and garlic that would remain on our fingers all day. We also bought extra servings of rice to sop up the leftover sauce after our seafood was consumed. My shrimps and crawfish (which I haven't had in some time) were all finger-licking delicious, thanks to the Seau de Crabe sauce that infused every bit of meat inside the crustaceans. I would go back for future visits, seeing as how my family loves seafood, and it's not too far from our place in Mississauga!

You can easily make a reservation online via website; some set dinners require you to pre-order first, the website will prompt you. I personally love wintermelon soup; I specifically came here for it (must be pre-ordered), and it was delicious. The soup even came with an abalone for each person :) The service is friendly and attentive. Our server made sure we are taken care of. We got the Set Dinner 3.0 and it was good for 4 people with wintermelon soup, lobster, crab, geoduck, chicken and noodle. We also added the BOGO deal for fois gras toast, and it was so large and juicy! Though I think the yuzu didn't go too well with the flavours, perhaps a cranberry or raspberry sauce would be better? ^^ I was also intrigued by their huge claypot rice menu, so I hope to come back another time to try it out with my friends!

Out of the seafoods, mussels were my personal favourite. They were plump and tender, holding onto the sauce in their shells, creating tasty mouthfuls. Portions were more generous than initially met the eye -- as we ate, we did quickly become full. A downside is that warm/hot things are served in plastic bags. Mmmm yummy micro plastics... And the tables and washroom were not the cleanliest. I loved the decor of the place. Interesting art to look at, and splashes of colour here and there. Lots of tables. Paid parking is relatively easy to find in the neighbourhood.

On a hot, sunny day, I visited The Captain's Boil with friends for some seafood, and I have to say,…read moreI had a great time. From the outside, the familiar black-and-white sign was clean but showed signs of age, with faint white streaks suggesting that the exterior could use a refresh. Inside, we were greeted by a wall of colourful sticky notes, adding a fun touch to the dark, brick-lined interior. I also appreciated the nearby sink, making it easy to wash our hands without heading to the bathroom. It was definitely convenient. After being seated, the menu left much to be desired. It showed its age, with white scratches that made it hard to read the items. The ordering system was not intuitive for a first-time visitor, so we had to rely on our server for guidance. Also, the drinks menu looked like a printout from Excel, which was small, hard to read and, unfortunately, overpriced. We ordered the Matey's Feast along with another order of seafood, which was a generous meal for three people. Matey's Feast is one of their set meals that allowed us to choose two types of seafood, along with a variety of sides. Each boil also came with two regular sides, which was a nice touch. We went with Captain's Boil seasoning at medium spice, which was just right for enjoying the seafood. The boils arrived in clear bags, and we had to take them out of the bag and eat by hand. Shrimp Basket: A hot and crispy appetizer served on a bed of Cajun fries, which really whetted my appetite. The tartar sauce and ketchup on the side complemented the crunch. Captain's Fried Rice with Seafood: A simple but tasty plate of rice with shrimp. We added some of the sauce from the seafood boils for extra flavour. It was filling. Seafood Boils: Each bag of seafood was packed with seasoning and came with disposable gloves so we could dig in with our hands. The clams were cooked perfectly, with just the right amount of spices. The shrimp required a bit more work, with the heads and shells needing to be removed, but they were large and fresh, making it worth the effort. The extra sauce in each bag was perfect for drenching our sides or adding more flavour to the fried rice. Sides: We chose corn for the regular sides and sausage for the premium side. Corns were quarter-length cobs of corn and the sausages were served sliced. We tossed both into the seafood boil bags to soak up the spicy sauce, making them even more enjoyable. The service was adequate, with staff checking in occasionally to ensure we had everything we needed. The washroom, located downstairs, was not spotless but still serviceable. In terms of value, I found the pricing to be on the higher side. The drinks, at $4 each, were refillable but expensive considering I only had two cups. Given that it's a seafood restaurant, higher prices were expected, but I appreciated that sides like fries and fried rice helped fill us up. Overall, I had a good time. My rating of 3 reflects the tricky ordering process and steep prices, but the food was definitely enjoyable, and I left feeling full. I'd return if I was in the mood for seafood boil and ready to splurge a little.

He advised us that each of the dinner choices are freshly made in their kitchen. He walked us through the menu and took his time explaining it to us. We went with the Endless Shrimp meals which were an excellent choice since they are only available for a limited time. We sampled almost all of the options, save for the newest flavour called Marry Me Shrimp. Marry Me Shrimp is shrimp in a tomato cream sauce, topped with garlic and herb crumble. Curious to try it next visit. As always the Shrimp Linguini Alfredo was a crowd favourite with shrimp tossed in creamy Alfredo sauce over linguini pasta. Rich and creamy. Walt's Favourite Shrimp is usually a favourite pick with breaded butterflied fried shrimp served with red shrimp cocktail sauce. This time the seasonings seemed a tad too salty but it was still nice, fresh and crunchy. The Garlic Shrimp turned out great as usual sautéed in a garlic and lemon butter sauce. It went well with the hot biscuits brought to our table by our friendly server. However the standout pick was the Island Coconut Shrimp, such a delicious jumbo coconut shrimp served with a zesty zinger of white piña colada dip. For dessert we had the cheesecake which is always oh so good topped with a berry compote. A sweet ending to an excellent meal.

The waiters came out to walk us through their fresh fish platter before we placed our orders. We started off with some seafood misto, which was perfectly and lightly fried, a grilled sardine each (yummy but slightly on the salty side), octopus salad, and a tomato & bufala (way more cheese than I expected, but the bufala is nowhere comparable to that which I've had in Italy). Then, we moved onto our mains. We shared the steamed clams / mussels / shrimp, the pescatora risotto, and a seafood platter of grilled octopus, plump langoustines, and grilled white fish (I believe it was halibut). The risotto was OUT of this world! The best I've had thus far... so rich and seafoody. The grilled octopus was fine... because it was so big and thick, it was a bit dry. The halibut, unfortunately, was a disappointment. The fish was pregnant (had ample roe) and so the texture of the filet was off, and it wasn't as tasty as it could've been. All things considered, Joso is a well-known establishment filled with lots of family and group parties. It's a fun vibe and the food (especially the risotto and fried insalata di mare) is quite good! Would love to come again.
