Crab good. Thanks so much. We loved everything we ate
The seafood are fresh and tasty. The service is friendly. Definitely will returning to this restaurant again.
The advice by a Japanese staff was very good !
Definitely not worth the price, way too overcooked and the sauce was just either bland or too much of one flavour. The tequila sunrise was the best thing I had there. The lobster tail was okay it wasn’t as chewy as the rest of it. Overall I’d say 4.5/10 just because the alcohol was cheaper than half of Sydney and actually decent.
Seafood in Cajun sauce - that’s what this is. We found the Cajun a tad salty for us. As for the seafood - we ordered the one with the snow crab. It was too much food for the 2 of us. And we don’t know how to appreciate the baby crayfish and the baby octopus. Two good things were : (1) the slim server with the ponytail - should have asked for his name - came to check on us 3 times, very friendly and sang the loudest “Happy Birthday” song for the next table. Please keep him! (2) we had vouchers from the nearby hotel to spend here, which was great!
Lovely meals, great atmosphere!!! Good for the family as well

Great food and experience will be bring my other family and friends
We had the combo + king crab legs and it was amazing. Highly recommend
Was great. Just as i saw on tiktok. Great vibes and awsome food
We orderedprawns and crab. Cooked separately. With caju mild sauce. Prawn arrived and it was so freaking apicy. Im asian and i can tolerate spice. But was considerate of my partner who was white. And i was hoping he would enjoy ir coz he doesnt like seafood. Unfortunately, both of us were disappointmed. Crab aarrived with same sauce as per order but it wasnt spicy at all!
The seafood,eggs and corns are so good. A good place to enjoy seafood with friends.
Tutto buonissimo, cena puntuale rapporto qualità prezzo ottimo atmosfera molto piacevole
Great food cooked to perfection and staff were very friendly, great service, definitely revisiting.
This is my third visit, and my son liked the spicy crab. So fresh and delicious seafood snack, we don't love fried food so we were a little hungry. But everything was perfect, the sauce, the atmosphere, and the end of the trip.
The food was average it lacked flavor not sure I would return
Food came very late, 45min late, nit happy as all
The food wasn't the freshest, but it was alright. However the food was EXTREMELY salty, so the sauce got tired quickly and we were forcing ourselves to eat towards the end- got the cajun sauce, no spice, and did taste pretty good. Honestly, the serving was a little smaller than I would have liked, they could've given a more even serving of other seafood, there were a lot more prawns than the rest seafood ( Wish there were more baby octopus!) . We got the 2 serving snow crab set- their most popular set. The crab itself was alright, cooked just right, not under or overcooked which is nice! Def get the potato, it offsets the saltiness of the sauce. They also have friend foods which we didn't get, price looked alright for those. Overall it was a once-in-a-lifetime experince- as in I've been once in my life, probably won't come back just because it felt a bit lack luster for $119 for two people + almost died of a sodium overdose LOL!! ( for legal reasons that's a joke)
It was an amazing experience with great food and outstanding customer service 🤞
We had a great experience at the boiling crab the staff were so friendly and approachable. We went ahead of our booked time but they were willing to serve us, We went on a Sunday afternoon for lunch it was quite and wasn't busy we enjoyed everything. Thank you the boiling crab team 👌🏻
Bad service never come again.so many restaurants how can you survive with such bad service
Food and service were great! The toilet was clean. Nice place!
The food was very lovely and service was really great!
It's good to come on a Sunday avo if you want a walk in table,is noticeably quieter in the day.
Great experience! We enjoyed our dinner as it was a new experience for us
Great food and atmosphere. A little pricey but I will come again
Different cuisine; worth a visit; one gets to try different seafood.
We had the snow crab combo with the 'everything sauce,' and it was absolutely amazing! The seafood was incredibly fresh, and the sauce took it to the next level. We also ordered a serving of rice, and between that and the generous portions, my friend and I were completely satisfied. The staff were fantastic—friendly, attentive, and made our experience even better. We’ll definitely be back for more!
we tried the creamy garlic seasoning and honestly it wasn’t bad overall, but would be better if it was more saucy for the boil and had a more garlic taste. everything was still really good though 👍
We loved it. Great food. Quick service. Fun experience for us all
The food was good. Everybody enjoyed the seafood. Sauce was great.
We had waited months to come and try and was not disappointed.
Expensive for a little food, this place definitely paid for TikTok reviewers
The sauce it's not that nice.. it's a but sour. But the service is excellent.
Very happy customer. I will definitely come back and tell my friends and family to come visit.
Great food & fun. A must do for family and friends.
Was an awesome experience, very similar to the one in California….service is AAA+ Thank you Boiling Crab staff, would recommend to family and friends
Heaven on earth. Love it! Amazing food and attention thanks
Such a fun Restauraunt! food was really tasty and the service was great :)
Very relaxing and great food staff very friendly and attentive
I had a booking at 7:15 I didn’t get my food until 8:40 i was told the wait was 20 minutes but it was over a hour I waited for my food I asked the waitress there how long my food was going to be 3 times and they all ignored me and walked away and never came back to my table, I ordered rice it wasn’t till I was leaving they told me they had no more rice left I was really unhappy sending 300 for something that was not nice worst experience I’ve had
有 點 太 鹹 希 望 能 淡 點 或 提 供 更 多 飲 料
The food was just yum 😘. New eating experience. The service was excellent. Left very satisfied with the intent to return before leaving Sydney.
Fantastic food. We had to wait half an hour for them to get the blue crab ready, but definitely worth the wait. Crayfish were really tiny and barely had any meat. Could have been slightly bigger. 10 on 10 for taste, spice levels and quantity of food in the bag. Will definitely make this a regular haunt.
Food sensational. Staff and service fantastic. Definitely recommend and would come again.
Amazing experience and awesome food, so much more than expected. Highly recommend it!!
Great experience , excellent customer service, happy to try again
