Bag O' Crab

Came here with friends on the recommendation of a coworker. How do I not know what restaurant is in my own neighborhood?! First off, this restaurant is located in downtown San Leandro. There are not many free parking available, including the parking lot attached to this business. You'll have to download the AirGarage app to pay. Once inside the restaurant, we were seated pretty promptly. It was very spacious and I was surprised by how many tables they have available. The staff were friendly and very helpful in answering questions about the menu. We each ordered our own seafood boil and shared some sides - cajun fries and garlic noodles. The food came out quickly, it was fresh and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely come back when I'm craving some cajun seafood boil.

My friend was craving seafood boil and so we dropped by to get some. The place was pretty packed and there was a wait of about 5 minutes for a table when we arrived. I ended up getting one pound of head on shrimp, with atomic sauce with a little bit of spice, and a side of garlic noodles. The garlic noodles came out first and was a decent portion. It was also sprinkled with a lot of cheese. I liked the chew it the noodles; not overcooked. I would say it could have had a stronger garlic flavor and less soy sauce flavor but it was still decent. The shrimp came out pretty soon after. After going through the whole bag, I would say maybe 1/4 of the pound was overcooked and super mushy. The rest of the shrimp was cooked just right or just slightly over. I think what was worse was the sauce. It was just oil and pretty flavorless. There was a ton of garlic but even that flavor was overpowered by the sheer amount of oil. I used the lemon+salt pepper instead. My friend and I ended up both having stomach issues later due to the amount of oil and ended up spending time on the toilet. I'm a little conflicted because I have been to this restaurant once before and didn't have this kind of experience. Seems like it might be consistency issues. But since we both had stomach issues, it didn't end up being an enjoyable experience. Staff was friendly though and quick to take our order. I think only 1 out of 3 bathroom stalls in the women's restroom is working, so there might be a wait.

Ordered on DoorDash.People at work kept talking about "southern style seafood cooked in a bag" so my quest for seafood this week began. Last time we hit up chef smells and yesterday it was bag I crab. Ordered the bag combo of mussels, shrimp both at one pound. They also included 2 corns and several slices of sausage with potato. $40.I was iffy as there were a LOT of bad reviews both online and from coworkers about this chain. I'm glad I was proven wrong! I went with Louisiana medium spice and it was perfect. All the shrimp and mussels were delicious. I ate the whole bag by myself with extras for work the next day. I cooked my own white rice to eat with it. Also it smelled so good that I didn't take a picture of food before eating just the fancy blue bag it came in. Added this to my DoorDash favorites!

Located in the shops of San Leandro. Meter Paid parking until 6pm daily with 3 hour max. parking credit available if paying Airpark App. 1st time here for an event where they rented the large party room with bar, dance floor and comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. So happy weather was great today as we hung out outdoors. Food was buffet style and we dined on salad, garlic noodles, corn, shrimp, 3 kinds of wings. Breaded Fish. Rice, French fries and sweet potato fries.We enjoyed the location, the set up & food.

Solid seafood spot! Came in around 8:15pm on a Friday night. Was told it would be a 20-30 min wait but ended up getting seated in 15. Process was easy. Pick your seafood, sauce, and spice level. My bf and I did 1 lb shrimp (head on), one rice, one order of sausage, one corn, and a soda. My bf was expecting to pay close to $50 but our check came out to $28! Only drawback is their bathroom :( The women's restroom had one toilet out or order, the other had a bunch of stuff in it which only left one semi-clean toilet. Otherwise, would definitely come back!

Food: 4.5Service: 5Ambiance: 4The food was good and we enjoyed them before we can take photos. The only downside is most the food was a bit salty. I would not recommend getting the garlic noodle. All we tastes was soy sauce. Other than that it was a decent experience.

Hard to pay for parking nearby but on the napkin holder is a number to text to get money back. Lots of seating, good for groups.Cajun season was super good but a bit oily. Seafood tasted fresh and made carefully. Service was fine, nothing out of the ordinary. Overall very tasty and decent pricing. Didnt need to wait in line to get in.

Ordered takeout, food was transported by robot and in a reusable bag. Really neat, great cajun boil.

It was a cute lil vibe! I think the portions were a bit small but the flavor was definitely there and it came out so hot in temp so that was a big plus for me!

The food here is HELLA good. Highly recommend! Me and my girlfriend come here all the time. Their service is outstanding. Best crab boil out in the bay!!!
