The food tastes good. Most of the food here is seafood. If you’re craving for seafood, then this may be the best place for you to go in. Just don’t wear a white shirt or any light colors that could probably ruin your shirt. Here are the reasons why: They serve the seafood in a small transparent industrial bag. It comes with a red sauce inside it, that way you can shake it to mix the sauce and the seafood. They’re going to give you a plastic apron and a plastic gloves if you’re going to order the seafood. The place is really cozy too and the price is reasonable.

MISLEADING. So walked in and the place was not very busy (2-3 tables occupied) YET still waiter took me to the booth of his choice. The whole purpose was to try Fresh Oysters BUT guess what?? Tada!! Waiter informed us that they do not serve them anymore despite it being on the menu (see the picture posted). He says: "They were not good so we stop", that's quote unquote. Now, seeing the disappointment he never says anything like sorry about that or sorry about the inconvenience. I found it very strange that all waiters were Asian guys that didn't seem to speak English very well. Anyhow, bottom line if you have it on the menu you must serve it!!! Both online and menu at the restaurant had fresh oysters advertised yet they were not available. It's not how it works. It is misleading the customer plus non existent customer service topped it off. I doubt I will come back.
What to try?? The lobster special! The garlic bread dipped in their captain boil sauce! I came here for the grand opening. They opened for a month already and they had the lobster special for the whole month! Basically a whole lobster for 16 marinated in any of the sauces they have. What a steal! I thought the restaurant was relatively clean and the restaurant was spacious. We ordered clams, shrimp, and mussels as well. The service was relatively quick and the waiter who served us was also very nice in explaining the menu. The food was fresh and the taste was there but sometimes the captains boil sauce can be overpowering for some people because it's basically all their sauces mixed together. If you want to tone it down a notch, I'd say Cajun sauce is the other choice to go for. The lemon is also a very classic sauce and if you like garlic, the garlic is definitely very garlicky. All the food is priced by weight so I'd say rule of thumb, one pound is good for 2 ppl. You can also throw in some sides like corn or okra or fries that you can balance your seafood heavy meal. Last tip? Follow them (the Oakville location) on Facebook and instagram to get the latest promos and specials. The lobster deal is definitely worth it and only come once in a while. You don't want to miss out some great deals at this restaurant since we all know eating seafood at regular price can definitely add up!
Restaurant is well lit and spacious. Concept is something I have never experienced. Lobster was cooked right, moist and well seasoned with Cajun spices (my personal choice). Restaurant offers 4 types is seasoning including Cajun and garlic butter with 4 levels of heat, from mild to fire. Food is served in plastic bags. (They claim on their website that the plastic bags are BPA free) If you are looking for a fancy dinner, probably this is not the place. It's fancy in a messy way (if it makes any sense). You are encouraged to be messy. As can be seen in the pictures after our dinner. No cutleries. Plastic gloves and bibs area provided. Must eat with your fingers. Our order of Lobster was fresh, tasted very good with right amount of spice. We also ordered Shrimps, Fish & Chips. Shrimps also was served in plastic bags but Fish & Chips served in basket. Food is good, new concept (messy, just like eating sea food at home), prices area very reasonable. We enjoyed. One suggestion to owner... Some wet naps / scented disinfectant moist towelettes on the table would be very good. Even though you wash your hands with soap in the washroom, seafood smell lingers long after the meal. We loved it and certainly go back for a leisurely meal not for a quick bite.
What a wonderful restaurant! I like their garlic sauce!
At captain boils Oakville for the first time, with friends for a birthday celebration. Will not return ordered chicken teriyaki rice, was told the rice was jasmine (not) chicken was like rubber probably microwaved, ordered calamari we got calamari balls. Wings was not edible, ordered what they are known for seafood, we got crab legs and crawfish, with disappointment just got crab legs. Asked for a knife got a plastic one, asked for salt and pepper and got a small container with mix of both, shall I continue with why we will not return, ask for cup of hot water, it came it a takeout cup. Are you asking yourself, is this place takeout only... nope this was all dine in. Service and food was terrible!
Food there is fresh flavorful lobster was beautifully cooked. Had shrimp and wings with fries. It was made perfectly
Disgusting food no taste at all. The lobster has not taste they use plastic plates don’t have the right tools to eat lobster leaving a lot meat left overpriced food! 40 for lobster that I can’t even get with a plastic fork. I can not eat the rice it’s disgusting. DO NOT COME HERE
