| - I had a sudden crave for Captain's Boil, and decided to give this location a try. I went with my family and friends on a busy Friday night. I think this is the biggest location in Toronto, and I believe it has a capacity of 100+ seats. They also have a big party room that can hold at least 30 people. I think it would be good for private company events/ birthday party. The good part is they do take reservation for weekends, and have a huge parking lot.
Service for this location was great, but I think they might be a little under staff in a restaurant this big. I saw all the staffs running around like crazy, but everyone was attentive and helpful. One good thing is that they kept walking around and asking everyone if they are good with everything, while refilling their water. Eating this food got me really thirsty especially, with the garlic sauce it was quite salty. Prepare to drink lots of water.
I acted like it was my first time eating at Captain's Boil, and I asked the server to explain everything to me. He took us through step by step from choosing our catch to choosing our flavour and even clearly explain the different level of heat. He also made very useful recommendations such as getting the French fries extra crispy, and dip it in the Captain's Boil sauce. He was right about that and it was very delicious (highly recommended). In the end, I ordered the Captains Boil Lobster, Garlic Sauce Shrimp and Lemon Pepper Mussel. The flavour was very good and consistent compared to the first time I had Captain's Boil.
The only downside from this restaurant is they do not have mixed drinks. I really wanted some Mojito to enjoy the tasty seafood. However, my overall experience at this location was excellent, I will be back and also recommending people to come here. I am also looking forward to try other locations in Toronto.
