| - Where has this place been all my life, I think I'm in love. I was recently brought to the Boil by my brother who wasn't an avid seafood person before, until he came here. I, on the other hand, am a huge seafood lover so this was right up my alley. It's basically Cajun meets Asian flare. We came during at lunch durning the weekday, so it wasn't busy at all. The menu is pretty simple and straight forward. You pick your seafood, you pick your sauce and you pick your spice level, done! It seems like everything is done family style so it would be awesome to come with a bigger group. You get a bib and a pair of gloves and the whole thing is supposed to be MESSY! All the seafood is served in bags where you can also throw in some extra stuff if you like (potatoes, corn, whatever your heart desires) and they have an abidance of side dishes too.
They have one lunch special which is basically like a mini sampler of most of their seafood. For $11, you get crawfish, mussels, clams and shrimp (2 of each), side rice and a choice of either fish or chicken teriyaki. My brother and I also decided to share the king crab legs. For sauces, I HIGHYL recommend you get the Captain's Boil, which is a mixture of their 3 other sauces. I choose the medium spice level, which I thought had a perfect kick and was not overwhelming at all. My brother can't handle spice at all, but he was able to do mild. Everything was delicious and super messy. I absolutely loved the mussels and wish I had more.
Despite having gloves, it's possible to still get a little messy and I like that they have a hand washing station to clean yourself up afterwards. Service was great and I would definitely return if I'm in the area again.
