If you're on the hunt for a great seafood boil in Austin, I found a spot that delivers on flavor and fun, making it perfect for a relaxed date night. As someone who’s always seeking the perfect seafood boil, I can confidently say that this place hit all the right notes.

We went for the build-your-own boil, sharing a combination of shrimp, crab, sausage, corn, potatoes, and mussels, topped off with two eggs. It was more than enough for two, offering a generous portion that didn’t leave us wanting for more. I prefer my seafood with a bit of a kick, so I was thrilled when the server recommended their special sauce—it brought just the right level of heat and spice to elevate the dish.

We didn’t stop there. We also tried the boudin balls, which were a solid 10/10. Crisp on the outside and packed with flavor on the inside, they were the perfect start to our meal. And of course, no date night would be complete without a few Happy Hour margaritas—refreshing, tangy, and a great complement to the rich, spicy seafood.

The service started off a little slow, but once our servers got into the groove, they were attentive and made sure everything was just right. They even checked in to ensure we left satisfied, which we definitely did.

For anyone craving a flavorful, customizable seafood boil in Austin, this spot is worth checking out. With generous portions, spicy options, and a relaxed vibe, it’s a great place to unwind and enjoy some seriously tasty seafood.
