the best seafood boils in Austin, TX!
Located at 6406 N Interstate 35, The Boiling Crab seafood restaurant is where you will find the “best tail in town” (Crawfish and lobster that is)!
It’s as easy as one, two, three…
Step 1: Choose your catch! Our raw oysters on the half-shell make for a great start. For your seafood boil, choose from delicious Dungeness crab, king crab legs, snow crab legs, shrimp, lobster, clams, mussels and crawfish.
Step 2: Choose your flavor! Select Rajun Cajun (our original seasoning), Garlic Sauce, Lemon Pepper – or get a mix of all three with our most popular flavor, The Whole Sha-Bang!®
Step 3: Choose your spice! You can go from plain and simple to “I can’t feel my mouth hot!”
If you’re in the mood for something crispy and crunchy, we have a wide selection: fried soft-shell crab, fried catfish, fried oysters, fried shrimp, hot wings, and more.
Don’t forget the sides! Complete your seafood feast with gumbo, potatoes, corn on the cob, sausage, and more. For all of you French fry fans, we have Cajun fries, sweet potato fries, lemon pepper fries, and the fan-favorite CRABBER FRIES that come topped with lump crab meat and a craveable sauce!
So join us today at The Boiling Crab where you can roll up your sleeves, don a TBC bib, and get down with our fresh seafood, bold flavors, and the “best tail in town”!
Frequently Asked Questions
Where is The Boiling Crab in Austin located, and is there parking nearby?
The Boiling Crab Austin is located at 6406 N Interstate 35, Suite 2375, Austin, TX 78752, tucked right into the popular The Linc shopping center along the I-35 service road. Because we are situated in a major commercial retail plaza, there is a large, shared open-air parking lot with plenty of complimentary parking available for our guests. However, spaces directly in front of the restaurant can fill up fast during busy weekend dinner rushes, so you may need to park a short walk away in the main plaza lot.
How do I order seafood takeout or delivery, and can I make a reservation at the Austin location?
We do not accept reservations; seating at our Austin location is strictly on a first-come, first-served basis (walk-ins only). Due to our popularity in the Texas capital, wait times can build up during weekend evening hours, and your entire party must be present to be seated. If you prefer to skip the wait, you can place a takeout order online through our website or in person for convenient pickup. Delivery options are also available via third-party platforms like Uber Eats, depending on your distance from The Linc.
What is the signature “Whole Sha-Bang!®” sauce, and can I choose my spice level?
Our signature The Whole Sha-Bang!® sauce is a legendary fan favorite, combining our original Rajun Cajun seasoning, savory Garlic Sauce, and zesty Lemon Pepper into one ultimate, mouth-watering boil. Customizing your meal is a simple three-step process: choose your fresh catch (like crawfish, shrimp, or crab legs), select your sauce flavor, and pick your heat. Our spice levels range from a completely Non-Spicy/Mild choice up to our fiery “I can’t feel my mouth!” level for the ultimate heat seekers.
What are the hours of operation for the Austin seafood restaurant?
Our Austin location is open Monday through Friday from 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM, and Saturday and Sunday from 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
Do you serve alcohol, and can I bring my own drinks to the Austin location?
Yes, we serve a variety of alcoholic beverages! Our drinks menu features a great selection of ice-cold bottled and draft beers (including popular imports and local Texas craft favorites), wine, and our signature Micheladas, which pair perfectly with our spicy seafood boils. Please note that outside alcohol is strictly prohibited (no BYOB), and guests must present a valid government-issued ID to purchase or consume alcohol.
What options do you have for guests who don’t eat seafood or have food allergies?
Even if you aren’t a seafood fan, we have delicious alternatives to satisfy your appetite! Our menu features crispy basket favorites like Chicken Tenders and Cajun or Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings, alongside savory sides like Cajun Fries, Sweet Potato Fries, Corn on the Cob, Potatoes, and Louisiana Smoked Sausage. Please note that because we are a hands-on seafood destination, shellfish cross-contamination can occur in our kitchen and dining spaces. We strongly advise alerting your server to any severe allergies before ordering.
