Reviews For The Boiling Crab Woodland Hills

Me and the lady went for Valentine’s Day. This place is pretty popular so it was a pretty accurate 2 hour waiting time, they take your number and you can check what place your in the queue, once it was our turn we receive a text to check in. So since I am a big baby and it was nearing my bed time I opted out the full eating experience, but the lady did not. As you can see in the picture she is really enjoying herself , The service is really fast and friendly. Paper on table, they offer to bib you and you can ask for gloves if you get extra messy while you devour your crabs. The crab gets to you in a bag, you open the bag and just pour it all over the table, then you go to town. Great food great service and great environment, especially because there’s a cool shark hanging from the ceiling. A if you like getting crabs.

Food was good, price wasnt bad and the service was good. We walked in 30 minutes before closing time and they greeted us with smiles and didn't act as annoyed as I would have been when I worked at a restaurant. My sister forgot her phone and they had picked it up and kept it safe for her and had it when she went back in to get it.

Had an incredible time with my partner at The Boiling Crab! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was fun and casual perfect for digging into some messy, delicious seafood. We ordered 1 pound of shrimp, fries, potatoes, sausage, and corn. Everything was packed with flavor, especially the shrimp. Our host Caleb was friendly, the service was quick, and the food came out hot and fresh. It was our first time here together, and it definitely won’t be the last. Loved how hands-on and fun the whole experience was

A different experience! It’s seafood so it’s pricy. The service is good. The Louisiana taste is great. The medium spice level was good for us. Loved the gumbo.

My love affair with Boiling Crab started many many years ago with their first branch in Alhambra and when I think of seafood boils, my go to place would always be Boiling Crab, though it’s not always convenient. I’ve been to this location a few times and the service is excellent, please order the calamari and all the shrimp your stomach can handle. My favorite seasoning is the Sha Bang with Xxx sauce and it’s so good, would definitely return. I would recommend coming in as early in the day as possible and on a weekday as possible as the line on the weekend can keep you waiting 45 minutes plus.

We came to visit on a busy Thursday evening. We were not aware that there was graduations taking place earlier that day. Our party of three was quoted a wait time of an hour and 15 minutes. We were sat within 30 minutes and ready to order right away. Our waiter was so friendly and very attentive. Our food came very quickly and was hot and fresh. Due to our visit previously I was thinking we might have to order extra, but the portion sized seem to be just right. We had snow, crab legs, potatoes, corn, and fried catfish. We cannot wait to go back!

First time here and was blown away by the amazing service and food. Our server Bryan was very on point and so polite. He was very attentive and fulfilled our ridiculous requests. Can’t wait to eat here again.
