The Boiler Seafood and Crab Boil Atlanta

I don’t even know where to start because there was several issues with my experience last night. I spent…no WASTED over $300 on this place. I had such high expectations from seeing this place all over social media with nothing but good things to be said about it. Let’s talk about the atmosphere: heart break music my entire 2 hours there (nothing upbeat) and music was too loud to hear yourself or the staff speak. The staff gives me all kinds of bad feelings from their interactions and somehow they deserve a 20% auto gratuity. Then my waitress had the audacity to ask if we needed change after she already received a $50 tip for less than extraordinary service. The place is nicely decorated, but talk about putting lipstick on a pig. Now let’s talk about the food and drinks: Salty, flavorless, overpriced, falsely advertised. I came for the all you can eat crab legs and I received 4 clusters in 2 hours time and all you have is 1 hour and a half. They purposely spread the crab legs out so you don’t get a true all you can eat experience. The oysters were undercooked and flavorless and the fried lobster tail was so salty it made my head spin from a few bites. The drinks were not prepared properly. You couldn’t taste any alcohol, just sugary. I’m so disappointed and feel so cheated out of my money. I will never return and suggest others find another establishment for their seafood fix. Literally anywhere but this over-hyped, over-priced, low quality seafood house.

My friends and I stopped in to grab something to eat for dinner lastnight and I thought that we were going to have such a great experience BUT unfortunately we didn’t. The food wasn’t done , they had little critters crawling all over the counter, it felt like it was 85° in the place. Th servers didn’t have any type of customer service. The server laughed when we showed her the roaches and really didn’t even try to make the situation better. The food just have a spice to it no flavor whatsoever. I ordered the bowl and it had just a tomato and spice flavor to it. The sizzling shrimp was drenched in old bay. This place is very overrated and nasty. Highly disappointed we only came because of TikTok. Also they need to update their menu and use the correct spelling of words. BECAUSE WHAT IS NOONDLES?

Every aspect of great dining experience is found here in this very comfortable and welcoming place. Seafood was perfectly seasoned and their hush puppies and crab cakes were the best. They were absolutely delicious. My goodness, even the white rice was delightful. Especially when I poured the garlic sauce over it! I highly recommend this place. Kudos to the chef & servers!!

I understand how everyone feels about the parking. We were skeptical as well (we are from Philly) I do know our service from Niecy was amazing. She showed professionalism, amazing hospitality and was very attentive. We say thank you! The food was delicious and seasoned to perfection. Nothing was too salty or bland. The drinks were on point as well. We all had only one drink a piece and it had enough liquor in them. The manager on duty she was also attentive making sure everything was to out liking. The only thing we think was a bit much was taxing everything including the gratuity. The gratuity should've not been taxed only the food and drinks.

I would give negative stars if I could, the service was terrible both from our server and the manager. I ordered a dish that was $120 for 1lb of king crab, 1lb of snow crab, 3 blue crab. I was given one singular king crab leg and told that was 1 pound, which there is no way 1 crab leg is one pound of anything. I was given my food, they didn’t have a crab cracker (how are you serving crab legs with no tool to eat your food) I was then proceeded to be handed a gardening tool or wire cutters to eat my food with. No telling what this was used for prior. The photos are extremely misleading leading with a super getto environment. DO NOT COME HERE
