What User likes about The Captain's Boil:
Two girls who served us were super friendly. We ordered a fish with fried rice and 2 liters of lobster. Prices were at the top. Everything is served in a plastic bag and eaten with plastic gloves. I wouldn't order the roasted rice again, but would come back here for the lobster experience. View all feedback. What Judy Simmermon doesn't like about The Captain's Boil:
Ordered takeout, the seafood was flavourless…. Less sauce. Crawfish tasted weird, undercooked, like raw… the shell itself was so soft. Maybe it was old? Shrimp had barely any sauce. Fries soggy. Not ordering ever again… not good View all feedback.

Abit pricey but reasonable. Still a great place tbh. They need to have A.C cause it's hot and you get hot when eating as well. Overall great place

This was an experience for sure. First things you are told is your meal will be served in a bag, no plates and you eat with your hands. We weren't scared off so...
