The Drip’N Crab

I can't explain it. You have to try it. I come from mosier and I knew I needed the day in Portland and enjoy this. I have to say this was worth it 100%. I'm not a seafood person, I came for my son for a 1:1 time and he was so grateful that I brought him here. The lady was friendly and again, I loved the ambiance and area. 100% recommend

All the way from Mexico to try this place, and this assholes are closed, they don't even answer the phone they have listed.On welp says it opens at 1500 hrs.But not sign of them opening.WORSE PLACE EVER!!

I love the idea of having seafood from food trucks. This food truck is located at one of the newest food cart pods in Portland. It is enclosed with fence so I feel quite safe. It has lots of outdoor seatings with covers. It also has a large indoor air conditioned sitting area with good circulation in case you worry about Covid-19. While we were eating indoors a worker came and cleaned every table. I really apprciate how clean and safe they are there.Well, I just want to say that their sauce is so delicious. It has very good flavor that I wish I could take it home and reuse it on other dishes! However, it took such a long time for them to make the dish. We ordered just one dish to share and to try out their food. I read other reviews that they gave you lots of food for the price. So we thought we could share one order of Alberta grab bag. What a mistake! I was disappointed that for $14 you get two small potatoes, one sausage (very oily and fatty), one corn and three crab legs that were very, very skinny. They give cash discount and we paid $10 for the dish. I was hoping to have more seafood than other non-seafood items. Although the sauce was very tasty, I was more hungry after splitting this grab bag with my husband and the long wait over 50 minutes! I don't think it should take that long to make such simple dish.It was good that I got plastic gloves because it was definitely very messy with the oily sauce. I also found it very difficult to eat crab legs without any tool other than my fingers and teeth. Perhaps we need to bring our own tools next time.Tips: Order food from this food cart and then head over to other food carts and order food there. By the time you finish eating your meal then you may be able to get the order as your afterdinner appetitizer.

In amongst about a dozen food carts at the CORE cart pod (a few blocks south of 82nd and Powell), is a totally unique cart that serves Southern style seafood boil. Nicely seasoned (Cajun spices) food at a good price point (you know seafood is gonna be more $$ than usual cart offerings).Since we weren't too hungry, we ordered the Alberta grab bag............and it is as advertised: a crap shoot of assorted items from their menu at a discounted price.For a bit over a 10 spot, we got a whole sausage link, half cob of corn, 2 small red potatoes, and a small partial snow crab cluster. Were hoping for a bit more seafood but again, it's a grab bag. And it was very tasty, coated/drenched in buttery cajun spices.The menu is small with less than 10 entrees total. Expect to spend about $20/head for a meal and expect to get grubby (though they do give you plastic gloves!). The one thing that I found almost untenable was the extremely long cook time. 40-50 cooking time?! And it wasn't even busy this early Sunday evening.Is the long wait worthwhile? Only if you have plenty of time and a strong craving Cajun crab boil. But this cart is located in a pretty strong diverse cart pod (CORE), so this will be my future strategy for eating here. Order a meal from here, knowing that crab will be your main entree. But also order items from 2 or 3 other carts to serve as appetizers or 1st courses (and eat 'em) since you WILL BE WAITING for crab. Now to review the CORE cart pod!

Three words- absolutely mind blowing!!!Seriously so good! Was visiting from Seattle and I still think about it everyday and just want more! Super reasonably priced too!

I'd literally follow this food truck anywhere. The staff is so unbelievably helpful, the flavors are amazing, and the seafood is so reasonably priced! Nobody does it better than the ladies working here. Everytime I show up they have a smile on there face and I'm just as happy because I know I'm going to be eating the most delicious seafood boil Portland has to offer. This food cart needs like 100 stars. This will forever be my comfort food spot.

I was at the Core yesterday and heard that Drip'N Crab was now selling their sauce and seasoning. I was SO excited and had to grab some. I got their small bottle of seasoning and the bottle of sauce. They gave me a run down on how to use both and I was stoked. I also decided to grab some of the Drip'N pasta because I've been super excited to try it. This is sadly where the disappointment started. I was given my sauce/seasoning ASAP and told my pasta would be a few minutes. No problem. But a 15 minute wait turned into a 30 minute wait and then that turned into a 50 minute wait. A friend I was with also ordered pasta and after 40 minutes, he went up to the window to check on it. He got his pasta and they totally forgot mine. I got mine about 10 minutes after that. I get things happen and the staff was actually so kind. The pasta itself was actually just like an alfredo though. A little bland for a seafood boil spot. I wish they'd drizzle some of the boil sauce over it or something. Or just add some spice. The little seasoning they did put over the top was more sweet than anything. Either way, it wasn't worth the 50 minute wait. But I'll definitely be using up the sauce and spice mix for my own seafood boils at home!

Me and my wife ordered the regular seafood boil and it was very good the juice wasn't too much so it left you wanting more in my opinion I'm a fan, my wife melted butter wit garlic salt and set it aside for herself but I felt I didn't need it . I definitely would eat here

Absolutely delicious. I got the Alberta crab boil and every part of it was delicious.

Best crab boil I've ever had. Really nice staff. Honestly, it was an honor to eat this.
