We got the seafood boil and it was pretty good! Sauce had a very oily layer but when you really get into the dip and get the... seasonings the flavor is really good and bold. The portion was decent. We got an order of sausage which was $5 but we only got 4bite size pieces which was pretty disappointing. The corn was not big and sweet like some of the other seafood books we’vehad. Overall pretty good experience. Read more

This is an original experience. The food is excellent and comes out timely. It's a place where getting dirty with sauce is... expected and fun. The staff was friendly and patient. Be ready for a waiting line, it's that popular. Also this place is notcheap. The cocktails are tasty but small and for the price makes you think twice. All in all excellent, a must go to forseafood lovers. Read more

Food was delicious. Enjoyed my boil with the Shaking Hot Seoul sauce. Service was great, the restaurant was busy and there were... only 2 waiters, our guy was HUSTLIN. Mans was going hard in dire straits. Would come back and spend more money. Read more

Very much enjoyed the Shaking Crab tray for take out. The menu says that it serves 3-4 people but we found it was more than... enough for 5! The whole experience with the gloves and bibs translated well to eating at home, especially with some butcherpaper on the table and so no plates necessary. The noodles we a bit bland but mixed with the “barlic” or cajun sauce madefor a tasty combo. Good experience all around! Read more

Ordered to go, this was my first time at the newton location. Ordering online was super easy. Tasted okay though. I think the... lobster And shrimp were a bit on the mushy side. The sauce was great and not too oily. Read more
