The Boiling Crab in San Jose is a seafood lover's paradise! 🦀 The unique experience of having your meal served in plastic bags is messy but oh-so-fun!

I indulged in a pound of shrimp and a whole Dungeness crab, perfectly seasoned with "the whole shebang" sauce - rich in garlic and spices. The crab fries and Cajun fries are a must-try!

The atmosphere is casual and family-friendly, and the service was fast despite the initial wait. My friends and I spent about $150 for a feast that left us satisfied. Can't wait to go back! 🍽️
