Reviews of The Pirate’s Boil
Pretty good! We would actually give it a 4+ ! 🌟🌟🌟🌟➕️
The seafood was prepared well. Not overcooked. Freely coming away from the shells. We had Dungeness & Snow Crabs and Shrimp w/ No heads.
The fried rice was really fresh, fluffy, and tasty. We loved the veggies in it.
The drinks were made pretty nicely. We had a 🍋 drop and another pink mixed drink my husband can't remember the name of.
⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
However, while the sauce was very tasty, those with High Blood Pressure should be cautious of the high salt content in the Pirates Secret Sauce.
We had the Starter bag, BBQ wings and whiting fried basket. The food was more tasty compared to other seafood spots. The venue was spacious and music is played in the background not overwhelming you can still have a conversation. Maria C. service was excellent. The whiting was tasty but a lot of salt. I would recommend cleaning the wall next to the table lots of splashes from the seafood has accumulated. The entry way I liked the signage eon the floor made of lights.
First time here while visiting from Texas. The food and drinks were really good. They had something called “Juicy Broccoli” where they cook it in there “juicy” sauce and that was pretty good just will say it was a little watery and I felt they should have sautéed the broccoli in the sauce first and also made it a little thicker. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. I ordered 1lb of shrimp in the medium sauce with Cajun fries. We also ordered crawfish and calamari. The sauce the crawfish was in was very salty, that would be the only issue with that dish. Overall it was really good.
I went here last night with a friend and I was extremely impressed with the quality of the food and the service we received. We ordered the hush puppies and fried rice for appetizers which I would recommend. The both are large enough to share between 2 people. Then we had the fried whiting basket with onion rings. I highly recommend their onion rings. Mostly onion nice batter with a spicy sauce which was same sauce we had for hush puppies. We got treasure chest bag with pirates sauce and medium spice. This is by far the best seafood in a bag place I’ve been to in ATL. It was not extra greasy. Thanks to my server for trying to get the cook to add shrimp to my fried rice. He was u successful but thanks for trying!!
Look. Look. Loooooooooook. This was my first time and I am hooked. I had the Treasure Chest w Cajun garlic butter. It was simply an excellent and delicious meal. I definitely did my happy dance in my seat. Jenny was our waitress and took care of us. I am definitely coming back.
Fresh and hot seafood! Drinks are really good and the staff is nice. Little to no wait time. I’ve been here several times and they have been consistent across the board!
I apologize. I forgot to take a picture before eating. The food was average. The environment was clean and pleasant. The service was ok.. There are not many interactions. I did not like the sauces on tip of my food because of my food allergies.
Located in an unassuming strip mall not far from The Battery, the interior is spacious and bright. Four of us were craving some Viet-Cajun style seafood and The Pirate's Boil has good reviews. The fried pickles and onion ring appetizers were standard fare. We all ordered different seafood combos and spice levels and enjoyed it all. The menu also has fried seafood and chicken options and sandwiches. I can see this place rocking in the evenings or if a good game is on. The long bar area is nice and there are TVs everywhere.
I stumbled upon this restaurant one weekday while I was perusing other stores in the area. Love that they have beers 🍻 on tap. I had a Sam Adam's October Fest. I had snow crab 🦀 legs and 1/2 pound of shrimp 🍤 in a medium spicy sauce. It comes with a potato and 🌽 Staff was a bit scarce but made it work. I'm not here for the frills so I would visit on the weekdays and take some pics by the lighted wall!
This place is a very cool spot for some boiled seafood - wings & PoBoy was good also. This was my second visit and it was just like the first - Clean, great atmosphere, good food, attentive servers (Shandence was great). We will be back.
I went with a friend to The Pirate's Boil for the first time and was surprised by how detailed the Halloween themed decor was throughout the restaurant. After looking over the menu, my friend and I decided to order their po boy shrimp with sweet potato fries and fish basket lunch special....which was fresh, well seasoned and delicious! I love this place already!!!!! We will definitely be back!
This place was OK at best. Service was friendly but really really slow. Considering it was a Tuesday night no excuses. I had the shrimp and crawfish boil with their house special sauce. The shrimp were good and tasted fairly fresh the crawfish were a good size but nothing special. We did have raw oysters as well and those were the star of the night. Huge and super fresh tasting. Glad we went but probably not going back. My wife had a shrimp poboy and again it was good but nothing special.
Yes this was my first time here at this business…my waitress was Jasmine P…she was very polite & friendly…she has well communication skills…she was very prompt when taking our order…she will be a great fit for management…we ordered hush puppies…crab legs…shrimp basket & Hennessy Berry…we will definitely be back again for a second visit…
This place was amazing! Literally so cheap and so delicious. Came to Atlanta CRAVING a good seafood boil and this place was recommended to us and thank god it was. Our waitress Taylar was also the sweetest and super helpful.
The restaurant was nice. Its a huge space with free parking so we didn't feel too crowded inside. It was nice and spacious. Also, the music was a good mix of old and new hip hop/ r&b.
The food had highs and lows. I loved my wings, fries and the hushpuppies. However, the corn fritters and fried pickles didn't give the flavor that i was hoping for. Also, it took really long to come out.
Overall I might come back here for the music and the wings. The bar seemed to be a nice vibe and I'm sure it gets lit on the weekends.
I love this place. The food is always good (even though I don’t need the garlic 🤢). The staff are sweet and the music is nice.
We really enjoyed it here. The food was great and our server Britanny was just good. We had calamari, 2 starter bags and two clusters of crabs.
I think it’s hard to find good calamari in atlanta. And they did it right. Look forward to coming back.
Prices are reasonable food was good. Service is decent took some time to get our appetizers but overall good will be back.
Love, love, love this place! My husband and I moved to Smyrna and after reading the reviews we decided to try it for our date night and the food was amazingly delicious.( this spot was our date night of choice so we have tried almost everything on the menu) The Cajun fries are the better choice, the scrimp and oysters are extremely fresh and exceptionally large. The catfish is fried hard so it’s not mushy and as for the salt content you have options. They have several different seasonings to choose so you have the option to make it hot, mild, garlicky, lemon pepper or salty. My husband and I are in Gwinette and after trying several different seafood places here we still prefer stopping by The Pirates Boil whenever we are in close proximity. It’s a must try if you like seafood. We love this place 🥰
Deran J was our wonderful server and the whole experience (music playing) was great. The atmosphere was live.. very festive since coming up on Halloween. The meal was tasty and very delicious.
The food was great the customer service was great The ambience of the place is wonderful they have Christmas decorations you can take a picture at the Christmas tree in the front
Love the Pirate Boil, they suit you up with a bib and gloves although id suggest bring some fitted latex ones for better grip. The seafood is served in a bag with corn , potatoes sausage and a egg . Your choice of butter seasoning. The corn fritter are Delicious, fried with a creamy corn center. The restaurant is still observing social distancing so you may find a short wait. Worth the trip.
Treated here by our son for our 27th anniversary. My wife and I just wanted a lite lunch. We ordered the poboy shrimp and catfish baskets with onion rings. Our son ordered the dungeons crab boil. The catfish and shrimp were cooked very well. The side order of onion rings came in a generous portion. Also, the second round of sweet was perfectly southern. The boil was sizable enough for our son to have a to-go box. A very sizeable dining area and our
I love this place so much. My family knows when I get her to Georgia this is where I want to go. Have not had a bad meal yet. The staff is really nice but the food and drinks are AMAZING! Will be going back again before my visit here is over.
Have only tried the fried catfish basket but it was fresh when I picked up and by the time I got home. Good portions and quick service.
My family visited yesterday and let me say it was the best that I've had and I've tried almost every seafood restaurant that serves the same. The atmosphere was great they have many TVs and changed channels upon request our waiter was great and the food was awesome my 8 and 2 year Olds even loved it and we kno how picky children can be. The seasoning is way better than all the others.
Great seafood. Incredible sauce. Be sure to use the bib. They deliver it in a bucket. Plastic gloves are given too so you don’t have to get the sauce all over your hands. Reasonable prices
The shrimp po'boy here absolutely knocked me off my socks. The sauce, fresh bread, crisp lettuce/tomato, plus freshly fried shrimp was *chef's kiss*. Unfortunately the fried whiting basket was not as good - the fried whiting tasted grassy and bitter for me. My friend did enjoy the fish / fry basket though, so depends on preference I suppose. The po'boy is enough to bring me back.
Firstly I appreciate them taking necessary precautions during COVID. Starting from the host to the server, all were very courteous and pleasant. Of course they were in Halloween mode so we also got to witness cute costume selections by the staff.
Food was amazing. I didn’t go with any of The Experience because it contained sausage (pork) as such we build our own. House seasoning is amazing and we are definitely visiting again soon.
Solid seafood boil option. You can easily get seated here without the long wait. The fried pickles were delicious! & not too salty. Seafood boil is good and you definitely get a lot more food but the boil seasoning flavors just aren’t all the way there. My crab legs were definitely not as clean and you can taste it. I will say I have never been to the Juicy Crab location in Smyrna so I can only compare to the Duluth location, which is amazing! However, based on the other reviews I would choose this place over the JC Smyrna location if I was trying to stay somewhat local just off the wait and service aspects. However, I would recommend this place invest more into their plastics - gloves and table covers are kinda cheap and forks and knives are cheap plastic as well. Overall you will leave full and satisfied just not overly amazed.
YEP this is my new go to seafood spot! I absolute loved the food. We started with a basket of fried oysters, fiesta poppers,Cajun fries and fried pickles. Which were all amazing, I got a 1lb order of king crab with lobster tail add on, I choose the pirates secret seasoning/mild. Honestly have no complaints about this place. The food had lots of flavor and the wait wasn’t long.
This seafood establishment is very well put together, nice, clean and our waitress was great. I ordered one claw, corn and potato with medium flavor and to be completely honest it was bland. The catfish wasn’t fried hard. It was piping hot but mushy. The calamari was great though. I don’t think I’ll return. Juicy crab is better.
Exceptional service and cleanliness but the food and drink lack punch! I wanna love this place, currently in a state of like. Even though Juicy Crab can be so unprofessional, the food is undeniably good!
Overall, I would recommend you give this place a try. Not a lot to dislike but if you're used to certain flavors the food may fall flat.
**Update. Decided to give it a try again because JC was closed and the food was much better this time. Very clean. Wasn't a ton of people during the lunch hour but the service was great again also.
So, so, so good. The seafood tasted fresh and well seasoned. 100% better than Juicy Crab. We got a seafood bag with shrimp, sausages, corn, boiled egg with the kid's seasoning because I am a wimp when it comes to spice. It was so delicious. We also got a po boy plate and wings. They were great as well. The drinks were pretty good and our server was very nice.
Great music, good food and the server was on point, on time, knew the menu and kept checking in on us. Hey smoke was exuberating and my wife could not praise her enough. We were there celebrating my wife's bday.
It was cool; laid back scene. I didn't have much of an appetite so I went with chicken tenders and fries. Our server was really nice.
Went for lunch after realizing they had a full service bar. Ordered a Pabst Blue Ribbon draft beer and the Fried Shrimp Basket. The food arrived quickly and hot! 8 pieces of perfectly seasoned, lightly battered large (tail on) shrimp and crispy onion rings, served with cocktail sauce. I devoured everything including the tails of the shrimp. The decorum hinted at nautical theme and the music was at a perfect volume. Be it date night or a just out with friends or family; the Pirate's Boil can easily accommodate a party of one as well as large parties.
Easy one of the best seafood restaurants out there. Their Cajun Calamari is a best option to start out your journey. The Juicy Cajun and Pirate's Secret sauces are the ones to get; very rich in flavor. The foods are super fresh and delicious. For the drink, you should try the Whatever Drink, very good. They are the Juicy Crab Killer right there!
Good & tastes better to me than Juicy Crab because it is not overwhelmingly garlicky and it includes eggs, potatoes, sausage, and corn without having too add them at an additional price but beware that the MILD spice level is a HOT SPICY seasoning. My nose was running I couldn’t fully enjoy it the way I wanted to because it was so spicy.
All the people who work there, it's always to the point that no one seats you... Then the waiters are not excited to help you. Food is always good! Service just needs a pick me up!
The Pirate's Boil has great food, attentive staff, and an inviting atmosphere. If you're looking for a "seafood in a bag" type restaurant please check them out!
Tried this fairly new place for lunch on a weekend, loved the food! We took the starter bag from the experience section with pirates secret seasoning (spice level - hot) and Cajun calamari. Shrimp (head off) was fresh and crisp and well soaked in with the seasoning, bag also had the corn, potatoes, egg and sausages.. is a real deal for the price, come in with a good appetite. The corn was so juicy and yumm, me and wife loved it. Calamari appetizer was so great too, well coated and fried just right! Quantity was great too. Service was good and ambience was bright and lively too, has plenty of tables! And yes, you get the bib and the gloves too to add to the dining experience..
Will return and won’t be surprised to see a wait time next time around.
(Below picture is Dungeness {2 claw} poured over into personal pan)
This is my second time trying out The Pirate's Boil. My first experience was after the grand opening. The food was delicious, the customer service was at a 4 but was bumped to a 5 after getting management involved, who was exceptional, and wanted to ensure a great experience. My second experience today called for 2 trips in one day, yes 2! The customer service was great, the food was great, and my meal was packed with everything as if I was dining at the restaurant. The drinks, adult Caprisuns, are flavorful, with the perfect balance of alcohol and juice. My favorites are Whatever and 2nd Chance.
Perks: Make your order online, tip, and receive an email of when it will be done. Arrive to pick up your order with little to no wait. Enjoy!
It was good but a little too pricey for me. I ordered 2 king crab legs and paid $170.00 for them not counting my son's food and our drinks.
All I can said is that all is delicious 🤤! Place is clean, not waiting lines, waiters are very friendly and helpful,
But what love the most was the seafood 🦞! Hightail recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ …
My son and I have a tradition of going here. We love it! We go at least once every two months. Definitely going to continue going here.
Service was great. Food was great. Music was great. They could use about 3-5 more servers to allow guest a better experience. Our server had 6 or 7 tables and I can image how difficult it can be to be equally be attentive to that many guests.
It was good. Crab slightly overcooked, but still very flavorful. Shrimp seemed a bit smaller than other seafood places I've been to. Waitress was nice and service was prompt.
I ALWAYS stop here to eat seafood! It’s always fresh and hot! Bartender (forgot her name) is the BEST! Way better taste and PRICE than most places in Atlanta! A true vibe!
I truly llooovvveee decor along with food and the food was just like any other seafood restaurant. It was good, not amazing. Try it but you won't be overly impressed. It's beautiful on the inside and it's huge.
Found this place on pinterest and wanted to give a try. I'm a foodie and been to alot of restaurants in and around Atlanta metro area. Food was delicious, wish the serving would of been a bit more. Friendly staff, as well as our waitress gave good customer service. Music was a bit too loud. I will be returning to give other menu items a try.
The food is greaaaaaat the second server ans manager was pretty awesome as well. When arrived the first server was not very good, we had 3 little children with us that weren't eating so we had an issue that had to speak with manager then requested a new table since paying 18% gratuity wan't to give to server who deserves it.
The food was good, hot and fresh. Our server was really nice and knowledgeable about the menu. I definitely will be back.
The fried oysters were terrible. The oysters did not taste fresh and had a bad after taste. The sauce was nasty.
Yummy ! I initially ordered from them togo, then DoorDash; both times we thoroughly enjoyed it. Trust we dinned in and the food and service was great !
The food was absolutely fantastic. Great service and fast. We had the Master of the Sea and were stuffed.
Delicious and fresh seafood! Great price and the Pirate's Secret sauce is amazing. 11/10 coming back to my new favorite seafood place.
It was my son and I's first time coming here. I have never heard of this place. Brittany B was our server. She was very nice and was attenive. The place is very laid back, fun and has a unique, party, hip atmosphere. For lunch, I had the shrimp poboy. It was delicious. My son had the chicken wings basket and he enjoyed it. Definitely would recommend and come again for one of the seafood specials at a later date.
Thus place is very good! The server named D! Is a really good representation of the establishment. Very good food!
Went here for my 46th Birthday everything was awesome food well seasoned I love it Waitress was amazing as well Jenny
Service and food was good. We had a party of 12 and the server was very attentive. Would go again.
Me and my husband enjoyed this place so much! This was our first time trying it and it exceeded our expectations. We love trying new seafood spots around town and this is by far one of our faves! Everything was well seasoned, hot, and came in a timely manner. We went on a Sunday evening and it was not crowded at all! We will definitely be back!
Food was great, got seated right away and not crowded. I would definitely go back.
The Pirate's Boil. Nice decor, plenty of parking, and prices not too expensive. I'm not a seafood guy so this review is about their chicken wings, onion rings, and hush puppies. None of the three items are nasty but none of the three stand out. My lady had the crab boil and she liked it so take this review with a grain of salt.
We walked in and less than fifteen minutes good was on the table . The food was fresh and flavored to perfection ‼️
This place has some great tasting food. The prices are a bit high for what they offer on their boils. The boil options were not the best. If you wanted variety you had to make your own which was way more expensive. The drinks were nice and strong but that one drink for $28 was not it. The cup they show in the pictures is NOT the cup you get. It's not big what so ever (unless they changed it recently) so be aware of that. The bartender (who was also our server) was not friendly either. But if you're not a person that minds prices and people then go here for good food.
I enjoyed my boil bag, the spice level was to my liking and the flavor on point. They were able to accommodate my large party. My only complaint was the waitress left our empty cups on the table after bringing refills instead of removing them and she completely forgot the margarita I ordered. Otherwise, things were cool!
started off with cajun fries that wasn’t very cajun-y got a boil with snow crab, corn, potato, and sausage and steamed rice the quality of the crab was really good but the sauce was too salty and wasn’t liquid enough if that makes sense it was just a whole bunch of minced garlic. it was still satisfying but juicy crab is definitely better for the taste the waitress we had was very nice and attentive she definitely added to the experience wish i remembered her name
Drinks, food and service was great. Or waitress Camila was so nice and prompt !!
Food is good. Service is not bad most of the times unless you get the wrong female bartender. I just sit in the dining room area when she is working.
This was my first visit. I came here on a date. The seafood boil was good. The drink was good. I got a mystic lemon drop. I'm all about the seasoning and I was impressed by it. I have my favorite seafood place, but this is a good runner up.
We had a lovely experience here amd a great waiter. We were also able to catch spme pf the football game while dining.
The best place for seafood and also great waitresses and awesome bar tender. If you just a drink to sip and wind down from work it's the place and if your just craving seafood they the best around....
Great food great atmosphere great bowl drink. Will come.back with friends and family
By far my favorite seafood spot. The food is as good as it looks. 2 words.. Pirates secret.. thank me later! ;)
Great service and good ambiance. The food is typical feeding trough seafood. IYKYK. My daughter loves the 2 clusters of snow crab for $30.
Food is amazing, I stopped here after getting my nails done in plaza. Quality service and nice people.
Not gonna lie ...the crab is always overcooked... I've been there several times and it's always the same thing but the fried shrimp and the wings! Bussing! Drinks always on point. Bar tender was pretty and friendly.
Great calamari and fries.
Good food. Our service really worked hard to service our large birthday party
This place is awesome!!!!!!!!!! I have been 3 times and every visit was wonderful. The food is soooo good. It's always fresh and well cooked. The liquor drinks are the BOMB. They don't short you at all. The service is impeccable 👌 👏 🙌 👍 A must TRY, you won't be disappointed. 😉 …
Enjoyable family birthday celebration with some good tasting seafood (pirate sauce), and warm, friendly service.
This is my favorite crab boil spot in the area! My husband, friends and I come quite often. Theres usually not a long wait, place is always clean, the service is great, and the food is always perfection!
Been living in this area for 8 years and why am I just finding out about this place. Literally just ate here three days in a row this week. First two day’s did the fried shrimp basket and the third did the catfish basket. Everything hot and fresh every single time. Hush puppies are bomb too!!!!!
First time trying it and it was great. The price was right and the food was hot, tasty and enough for me to take some home and I can eat!. I had the cajun garlic butter mild pound of shrimp heads off, oh yeah! Will be going back. My family enjoyed it as well. We all are going back.
The food... AMAZING! The absolutely horrible service is why there isn't 5 stars. Listen... it was a business trip which means tips are at minimum 20 to 25%. We all got the experience... service was SO BAD I tipped based off that and not a percentage. I should never have to ask for that many items that many times. And calling bluff on servers getting in trouble for giving a customer that's dropping $50 per plate a bit of mayo. To the cooks in the back... yall hit it out if the park on every dish... delicious!
The food and drinks are always good! I've been here multiple times and I have never had a bad experience! From the boils, to the fried food. Highly recommend!
The service was extremely fast and although the prices are a little steep it's more than made up for by the quality and quantity of the food. Most entrees could become two meals and the seafood is undoubtedly fresh! Definitely coming back here when my next seafood craving hits
It was okayyy I ain’t mad at it but if you want that real deal go to rocking crab near stone crest they got the best seafood I have had thus far around the city
This is my first time eating at this establishment. The management n staff are amazing. Very friendly n great service! I got my order to go. I ordered the Dungeness crab boil. I will probably never get it again. It was not at all what I expected. Some parts of the meat was black n it wasn't meaty as I expected it to be. . I've never seen that before. I was most definitely not satisfied. The sauce n everything else was amazing. I'll give it another try n try snow crabs next time.
Oh my this place was sooo Super Good!!! First of ALL the service was so AWESOME and Fast. My dinner came like minutes later less then 5 after placing it. My appetizer was to take home. My WAITER I had to ask the manager to give her a raise. The food was hot, delicious, plentiful, and the corn wasn't over cooked. We had a party of 25 and JMIKAEL or Shemika had all the orders right. No lacking on her end at all. Sorry I can't do JC ANYMORE.
First let me say this is my first seafood boil experience ever and I must say this establishment did not disappoint! The food was absolutely amazing. My meal (the King Crab and lobster tail) was seasoned to perfection, it was hot, tender, and plentiful. The waiter was attentive and nice. Upon entering you past spaced out tables and a bar that sit in a building of a sea themed decor. The last thing I noticed was how nice the music was. I do plan to visit this place again! Be prepared to spend at least $100. To me this is a decent price becaue it was worth every penny!
Faith was amazing with her excellent customer service skills, good was fresh and hot along with the drinks on point.
I visited this restaurant yesterday after reviewing the reviews. I was curious as to why another seafood boil place was directly across the street from the Juicy Crab. My first experience and it would definitely not be my last. I loved every single thing I ate. It was delicious!!! One of my girlfriends took me here for a birthday treat and we were extremely satisfied with our meals, service and waiter (I think his name was Ty White). I think we have the same palette because everything he recommended we had and enjoyed. I like the atmosphere and the vibe much better than the Juicy Crab so we will be visiting again shortly.
Perfect I mean perfect balance between flavor and seasoning. It came super fast under 15min. For 5 meals
Very loud and crowded. Husband was happy with food.
The food was so good! I ordered To Go the shrimp and lobster boil...delicious and still hot when I got home! Glad I gave the Pirate's Boil a try. I'll definitely be back!!
OMG! I visited this restaurant for the first time on Sat. July 3, 2021. The staff was friendly and our waitress, whose name I didn't get, was great! I usually don't care for my seafood to be in a bag with flavor sauces. So needless to say, I was not prepared for a pleasant experience. I had the create-your-own boil with the garlic butter & medium hot flavor choices. It was delicious! I added sausage from the a la carte side of the menu to my boil. They give you your money's worth. The only draw back is that for the price, they really should give two pieces of corn & potatoes. It shouldn't be extra. The food is pricey compared to other restaurants, but the quality wasn't bad. A friend at our table ordered the shrimp basket & calamari. Both were seasoned and cooked perfectly. The drinks were great as well. My Mystical Lemon Drop was absolutely delicious. I went and bought a bottle of the vodka used in the drink when we left the restaurant! Lol Thanks for a great dining experience. I will be back!
Pirates Boil exceeded my expectations! The food and service was great! My family and I went as soon as they were opening up. Our waiter was Randy, who was very kind, attentive, and also helpful when it came to choosing boils/seasonings. The seasoning, wow is all I can say! I had the Pirate’s special, really good, a tad bit salty but to my liking. My other family members had Juicy Cajun which was really good too. If you like Juicy Crab, you will absolutely love The Pirates Boil. My family and I will be returning soon!
Very clean setting, staff is really nice and to the point. Food is very delicious and hot. Waiter checked to make sure we was good at all times . It’s like excellent service .
First, let me say the service is phenomenal... the place is spacious and very clean. I ordered 1/2 lb of shrimp, sausage and king crab legs... the prices are similar to Juicy Crab but they give you way more food. The sauce was good; I liked Juicy flavor a bit better but overall this restaurant superseded my expectations around the board... and although I didn’t get a beverage their drink selection looked YUMMY! The Manager came over to the table and went out his way to accommodate my taste buds I was grateful and for that alone I will return... and will tell my friends... the only thing I would suggest is maybe a lighted sign as I didn’t know where it was located... it looked closed...
Love the service, atmosphere, and food. Much Much Much better than the Juicy Crab which is ironically across the street. If you're tire of the others long wait, poor service and dried out crab...I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU TRY THIS WELL VENTILATED, RELEVANT RESTAURANT! You won't be disappointed!
Not bad. Good was pretty good, and you get plenty of it. Our server was good too. It's a little pricey though, especially for drinks. It's quite clean too. I did see some folks turn away when they heard the music. If you're not into fairly loud hop hop music, it might not be the atmosphere for you
Love love their seafood boil. Definitely a new favorite spot for me🤗
I love this place they have the best seafood bags and also they have the best chicken tenders as well. Food is always fresh
Great price for good food and our waitress was awsome
This place was EVERYTHING I needed after a long day in the sun. The food was costly however it was worth the experience and it tasted like it was made with love. Would come back for lunch anytime
AMAZING! The location is new, nice layout, very clean. The service is excellent! I am so mad our server's name is escaping me, but she was fantastic! Last and probably most important, the food...incredible! Get the pirate's secret for seasoning because its the most delicious I have ever tasted in a boil (and I don't say that lightly, I used to live in New Orleans!). The prices are great and the drinks are strong (kudos to the bartender!). This is definitely my new spot!
This is my second time visiting and I absolutely love their food. The atmosphere is nice. It's SUPER clean in there and the manager was very professional and cordial. The food is worth the money and the wait staff was very friendly and attentive. I will definitely be back.
This place was the absolute BEST! I just got to ATL and the first thing I had on my mine was seafood. My sister told me about this new joint that opened up and told me that I had to try it and I must say don’t regret it. The food was AMAZING, HOT and came out RIGHT AWAY. Our Server Randy was very helpful, he made sure that he came back to check on us and that we had a great first experience. I will definitely be back the next time I’m in the A.
This is my spot! I originally came to this place after Juicy Crab had a long wait time...I’m glad I did. The flavor of their boils & wings is unique and delicious! I usually do the shrimp (no head) and an appetizer or two. Everything is reasonably priced and the service is usually on point.
Only thing I wish they still had are the tater tots, but as of my last visit they’ve been discontinued. But...doesn’t deter me from coming back time and time again.
Good
I had the whiting basket. The fish was fried a bit hard but tasty.
We had to wait a while to sest and be served.
Overall it was ok.
This place has the best seafood AND customer service. My husband and I eats there all the time. Randy Virgil is one of their GREATEST managers. He is young and very professional and kind. He interacts with all of the customers. He makes sure your visit is the greatest ever. This young man is AWESOME! My husband and I love great customer service...and this manager and his team of workers have the BEST customer service skills!!!!
Really not a seafood lover, but I like to eat it occasionally and this was the seafood that I've eaten. Loved the sauce & everything was well prepared.
My 2nd visit in a week because of the 'Amazing!' service I received from Brian and Shandence!
My first visit was a week ago, the customer service Shandence provided to my group was very professional. We arrived on a busy afternoon but never did we feel rushed. She helped my group w placing our orders in the most patient manner as she is very knowledgeable of food & beverage menu. When you receive outstanding service like that, you return the following week w a friend.
Tonight me and my friend enjoyed our meal at the bar with Brian. We tipped him well because he deserves every dollar. He was just as good and very knowledgeable of both food and beverages. He took the time to consistently check on me and my friend as he was just as busy on a Friday night. Our food was hot, fresh. and delicious! Brian was on point with the drinks too!
Good music, fresh seafood & amazing drinks.
I will be back next week!
I couldn't even take a picture because it was too good and I was way too hungry. We ordered the Cajun calamari which was amazing, big enough to fill one person. Then I ordered the starter lemon pepper mild bag, which was amazing!! I definitely recommend it, and the service was amazing. Candence was always seeing how we were doing and keeping up with our drinks.
Don't walk, run to this place! Easily one of the best meals I've ever had. Amazing service. Crazy good prices. Very highly recommend!
I don’t even eat seafood like that, but my friends and I were craving crab legs. We went to somewhere else at first because it was well known, but ended up being turned around because of time. However, when we got here, the staff was friendly and didn’t mind seating us. (Ironically the precious place closed at the same time as this one, but so glad we found this hidden gem) Luckily! We found this place. Excellent service, good music, very spacious, and the food was AMAZING. I’ll be returning. By the way, the portions are generous.
Been 2x and both food was 💣 BOMB! I couldn't stop eating, felt like I was in heavy. Seasoned so well! Service is pretty quick and friendly! Thank you! …
My first time trying the food and it was so delicious. I got the snow crab legs, corn, potatoes and boiled egg combo I forgot the name of it. Recommend this place 100%
Overall a GREAT dining experience. Hubby and I stopped by for a quick date night. The food was great and it was alot! The $48 meal is more than enough for 2, we took some home with us! The sauce could've been a little hotter but we both enjoy food hotter than most people. We will be back!
Absolutely amazing! You get a lot of food for a
Great deal. The flavor is delicious! The drinks are good as well. They have good physical distancing in the restaurant which I liked. Very clean nice with a nice atmosphere. I will definitely be back.
Food is always great, atmosphere awesome, and drinks awesome I eat here at least 2-3 times a month. And the food has been great every time.
Very good food, excellent service. Fried pickles were very good, Master of the Sea was excellent. Highly recommend!
Went here for the first time to see what the hype was about and it definitely deserves a 5 Star! Our server Jessica was very pleasant and nice the entire time. Despite my adult beverage being watered down, I would not leave less than a 5 Star due to the bartender error. Jessica’s kindness and attitude made the dining experience great! The Food was VERY GOOD AND SERVICE EVEN BETTER! I will definitely return & recommend this over Juicy Crab!!
Food was amazing. The temperature of the food was great. The atmosphere is great. The music is great. The distancing between booths is awesome and allows private intimacy. The servers are attentive and articulate. I’ve always frequented the juicy crab but this will be my new spot. Thanks TPB crew!
The food and drink were good, great service as well, I will be back
This place has really good service. They are fast, friendly, and helpful. I have been here twice already, the first time being the second day they were open. The food tastes great and the prices are slightly cheaper than the Juicy Crab across the street. This location has sports on TV visible from all seats and good drinks. My wife and I liked it so much that we invited my mother in law from out of town to eat here and they loved it as well!
Excellent crab legs. Some of the best I've had in Georgia. Juicy Crab ain't got nothing on this place. It can get a little crowded and the music is loud most of the time but no complaints here. The servers are friendly, drinks are good, & there is plenty of parking everytime I go.
Giving 3 stars mainly because the food wasn’t all that great to me. I’m from Virginia Beach and I’ve had better seafood boils. The taste/sauce wasn’t it for me. However, our server, Makayla, was amazing! Customer service is great. I’d recommend to others but it’s just not for me. Continue to do great! Thanks
THIS is a HIDDEN GEM for anyone obsessed with the well known "competition". The dining space is very open and extremely well kept, the staff are well mannered, the wait times for food are always short/reasonable.
And MOST IMPORTANTLY, the flavor of the Pirate's Boil's SEASONINGS AND SAUCES ARE SPOT ON. The seafood is always a healthy size with a fresh taste here. And their simple hush puppy recipe is ADDICTIVE.
My experiences here on several occasions now, have been great all around. Even when ordering online to-go.
10/10 would recommend for my seafood lovers.
Honestly 5 stars isn’t enough. The food is simply amazing. Staff is attentive and once you’re a regular they know what you want before you do. Candace & her sister are amazing and super friendly. If you want a good drink this is a great watering hole as well.
I loved it here!! My food was perfectly cooked and seasoned. My waitress was also extremely nice and provided great customer service. The decor in the restaurant was very nice and the strawberry henny margarita was delicious. I can’t wait to go back!!
Very good food and friendly staff. I got the oyster po'boy on my first visit, and it was prepared just right. I'll definitely be coming back.
EDIT - Went a second time. Got a crab bucket and thoroughly enjoyed it. Cajun garlic butter with medium spice was just right!
Clean and good seafood fresh and season doesn't have alot of salt
It’s always a pleasure to enjoy a great seafood boil. The customer service was phenomenal. Antonio greeted me with a pleasant demeanor. And my server was extremely accommodating. Sorry. I didn’t catch his name. Great job! Keep up the good work.
First time here this weekend. The establishment looks WAY better inside. Please don't let the exterior deter you from going inside. Decor is nice and refreshing. Candace was our server. She was the absolute bestest and definitely ensured that we will be back for her amazing service. Pricing is extremely reasonable and they have a great drink menu which includes something for everyone. I had the adult Capri Sun that lights up. Lol. I will also say that the boils are actually seasoned quite well. I was impressed. Best seasoned boil I have tasted in the Atlanta area. Mussels were large and absolutely amazing with NO live ones in the bunch with we appreciated. Calamari was fresh as was the fried shrimp. Everything fried was seasoned perfectly as well. I live in Lawrenceville and WILL bypass other spots just to dine here. Thank you again. Can't wait to come back!!
Pros: Seafood and sides are delicious. Food is priced reasonably and the staff is attentive. They have curbside delivery and take phone orders.
Cons: Sometimes the restaurant gets very crowded and it takes ~15-20 minutes longer to get your food.
Overall, this is a well decorated establishment with good customer service and good food.
My server was Eduardo, he was very professional and quick with bringing the drinks and appetizers! There was no wait time and that’s shocking on a Saturday night in Georgia, but I was over impressed with my service, server and the food was amazing as well! Very clean and neat establishment I love it and will definitely be back!
We order the captains pick(garlic butter) and it was delicious. Would have been 5 stars if it came with just a tad more stuff. Maybe free dinner rolls, that would've made it 5 stars, but dinner rolls are extra but worth it. Butter toast Hawaiian rolls. Service was great.
This is a must try. Come in and see James and Lindi (bartender). Just opened 3 weeks ago and I must say they will be one of my Favorite seafood spots in Smyrna. Customer service is Great and they have a very friendly staff. The drinks..... the drinks are Great and the Cajun Garlic Butter inferno sauce is delicious.
THE FOOD WAS AMAZING! Price pretty decent as well
Stopped at this new spot just because I was passing by and I'm glad I did. Tasha was my bartender and she was GREAT!! She has the best attitude, she is knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. She definitely knows what she's doing. Not only did I watch her take care of the bar..she also made sure her coworkers were as well in her downtime as well as engaging with us which is so important. She definitely sets the standards for EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE...so if you're ever in the area and decide to visit go see Tasha at the bar..she'll give you an experience you cant find anywhere else...
New to the area so decided to get the staff somethingto eat. I surprised everyone with seafood and The food was amazing. Fed a staff of 6-7 ppl for about$160 and some change. Money well spent!!! WE LOVED IT AND WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK.(AND PLUS IT'S 5 MINUTES FROM THE JOB LOL)
Delicious food in a casual environment. I got the pirates secret seasoning with snow crab legs and it was honestly one of the best seasonings I’ve ever had. Seafood was fresh and flavorful. It is messy to eat, but worth it. 10/10
The owner of this place is really cool and make sure we have a great experience everytime we go. The food and the drinks are good! I love the crab boil!!
Absolutely amazing! I have had both juicy crab and queen crab and this place is way better than the both of them. The sauce is great. Medium can be a bit hotter than usual but overall taste was great.
Favorite boil place hands down! Competition doesn't stand a chance. If you're looking for a place that has a great atmosphere, great service, and they know how to season food this is the place for you.
Had a much needed hangout with the hubby. The food and service were good. The atmosphere is upbeat and fun.
Super good! Highly recommend. Young lady on the phone walked me, a first time customer, through exactly what I wanted and made sure I got what I needed. The food was amazing and seasoned to perfection! Will definitely be back.
A great experience! As someone who lovesssss seafood and grew up on the coast this seafood was so delicious and it tasted fresh. You also get a lot for your money. I got the Treasure chest with the Pirate’s secret sauce and it was cooked to perfection and more than enough to eat! The atmosphere is very modern and they play a great variety of music. Lindi is great bartender and the rest of the staff was friendly. I definitely prefer this new spot over its contenders. We will definitely be back!
Literally the best service I’ve ever had. The hostess was extremely kind from the moment we walked in. It was a completely different atmosphere from Juicy Crab across the street. The music was a great touch; and it’s so bright and inviting. Eduardo was smart, funny, knew the menu, and was extremely kind. Julian at the bar made the best strawberry margarita (and has amazing hair)! The food was superb (shoutout to Eduardo for telling us to try the pirate secret seasoning). If you like spice get the inferno and you’ll be perfect! Unfortunately, we stay in Athens but I have a feeling we’ll be back for the amazing food and service! Bravo guys!!! ❤️
Very flavorful, shrimp and crab legs. First time having crawfish, I will pass the next time. The service was good and the restaurant is practicing social distancing and requiring mask when not eating. Plenty of room to separate.
Started with corn fritters and cocktails, went right in with the treasure chests and added extra crab legs. Got the garlic Cajun butter and with medium spice. Love the spice levels and flors to add to your boil make for great options. Was busy but great will be back
I enjoyed my meal and the customer service was great. I have been there a few times before and the customer service is always good but this visit was the best the young man that served us and the manager were amazing.
Best crab place I've ever eaten at! Very good experience. Can't wait to go back!
Originally went to try Juicy crab but the wait was too long. We then spotted this little place and decided to give it a try. It is a little cheaper in price than the juicy crab and the food is absolutely delicious. The staff is really nice. We will be going back.
My friend took me here for my birthday and I really enjoyed it. It was empty due for obvious reasons(pandemic). It’s really spacious and clean.The bartender made a special drink for me it was so cool. The food was really good. I highly recommend this place. It was awesome
I've been going to The Juicy Crab for a while but the long (last time 2hrs) wait and lack of taking reservations has made me look elsewhere.
This place is clean, the staff are super nice. I ordered one cluster of Dungeness crab, and one cluster of snow crab. Their seasoning is amazing. Soo good. Only small constrictive criticism would be to throw in another potato or two and corn (you only get one of each)
oysters weren't too fresh, but I wasn't expecting anything amazing. The intense heat level is actually spicy. very nice
I love this place. I eat here once or twice a week. Best seafood boil in Atlanta
Normally I wouldn't compare businesses, but when two places are literally across the street, doing the EXACT same thing, and one is blowing the other out the water (pun not intended) it is hard not to. So I'll say it plainly, The Pirate's Boil is much better than The Juicy Crab. Whichever restaurant you visit, you're going to get similar food, but the similarities end there. The Juicy Crab feels like I need to fight to be seated and when I am, I feel as though they couldn't care less that I'm there to spend my money. The Pirate's Boil greeted me warmly when I entered with bright lights and brighter smiles. My waiter, ask for Eduardo, provided some of the best service I've ever received at a restaurant. The drinks, all three of them and ask for Julian, were fantastic! Finally, the food: piping hot, spicy (inferno), seasoned perfectly (Pirate's Secret), and juicy. In conclusion, The Pirate's Boil has the juiciest crab around.
We are from Delaware and came down for my fiancee's birthday. The food was awesome! Presented well, tasted fresh and seasoned perfectly. I liked the ambiance and the service as well. We will be back.... when We come back to the "A" !!
The staff is super friendly. They really want you to enjoy your experience and very accommodating. The prices are pretty similar to juicy crab. But just overall Pirate Boil is better. Way more spacious. Great music! We will definitely be back.
I have absolutely NO complaints! (I will normally find something to nitpick) Called on a Saturday evening to find out the wait time. 30min (not bad) she told me to use Yelp to get on the waitlist. I ended up walking in and it hadn't come through yet. The hostess said not a problem I will add you and then pointed us to some empty chairs to wait. We were 8th in line and some how was greeted and was seated after waiting 5mins. Candence was our server and she was phenomenal! We NEVER had to ask for anything. She was on top of it! Refills when needed...even brought TOGO drinks when we were finishing up. I will definitely come back when I'm in town. 10+ in my book!
Very first time plus I’m from out of town definitely will be back!!! The flavor and freshness did it for me! You can’t beat a good tasty seafood broil that is fresh and also worth your money!! I love the vibe and atmosphere. I definitely recommend over any seafood restaurant!!
So this was my very 1st time eating here and I paid extra to have the tails off. Well when I got my plate the tales was on. Keep in mind I paid extra like addtional 6 bucks to have them off. I called spoke to manager, he tells me well they really are the same price, I had to correct him and say really they are not. Gave him the receipt number he verified that i did pay more. He gave me two options. Bring it back, but I am on lunch so I cant't bring it back, or he could refund the differnce. My Concern is I was incovienced and I was argued that the price was the same. I could not really enjoy it. The kitchen has to pay attention more. Other than that the food was good and he will take care of me, I wont be eating there again though> 1st experience went kinda bad, though I know humans aint perfect, but always wow the customer you never know if its a seceret shopper or not. Thanks Management..
Food came out fast, drinks were strong, server was great, and food was awesome! Me and my date will be back soon! It was her first time eating crab legs and this is all she talks about!
Just moved to Atlanta 2 weeks ago and we’ve had it twice. (No judgement please lol) it’s just that good. We took it to go and it was so hot it was still steaming in the bag. We got snow and king crab, sausage, potatoes, and corn. My gosh it’s simply amazing. Pro tip they don’t offer table cover or shell crackers. But you don’t really need the crackers because they pre cut it and boiled it to perfection. So the shell is easy enough to manipulate. Just have you some kitchen shears handy if you run into a tough spot. Also if you can think about it get yourself a little dollar store table cloth, it works well to protect your table/eating area. We will def be going back!
Absolutely good drinks and all Juillian the best bartender hands down ask for him. Food super good doesn't tastes boiled seafood very very fresh especially the oysters yeeeessss. No more Juicy Crab for me this my new home.
Actual the food was good customer service was good music was cool it was nice
Omg amazing as always! The bartenders are attentive and offer the best service! Great amazing pirates boil wings! That's the only thing I ever get anymore when I go there. So much for my diet!! Lol
We love it there. The foid is A1. Its way better than juicy crab. It environment is so peaceful and their customer service is always on point. Check them out.
I live in VA came to ATL September oth 2021 and October 16th 2021 both times I visted pirates boil. The food is amazing!!! The hush puppies are the best ive ever eaten. The boil bag in juicy Cajun is OMG a must 10/10
Called in a takeout order for my family around 6pm Saturday night. When I went to pick up the food, there were a few people waiting to be seated for dine in already. The place has lots of space and tables (nice decor) but I think they might be limiting capacity to stay more safe during covid. There were also two or three people waiting for takeout. Since I drove by right after I called, I waited a few minutes for the food but overall it did not take more than 20min I was quoted on the phone.
I got:
1 lb of crawfish + 1 lb of clams (pirates secret sauce)
1 lb of shrimp head on + 4 clusters of snow crab (sweet cajun sauce)
1 order of lemon pepper wings wet
1 order of sweet potato fries
All that food ($121 total) was more than enough for the three of us. Out of the seafood, my favorite was the shrimp, then the clams. Those two I think soaked in the sauce the best. The crawfish was a bit too salty and the snow crab legs were good but you had to dip the meat in the sauce to get extra flavor. Out of the two sauces, I definitely liked the sweet cajun a lot more. It was delicious! The pirates secret was too salty. The lemon pepper wings were also pretty good. The ranch that came with it went super well together.
Overall I would recommend this place and definitely try your seafood with the sweet cajun seasoning!
Almost the exact same as juicy crab across the street with different names! If there's a wait, head on over and you will get in easier. Delicious. Big space allows for social distancing easier except for at the front entrance. Tvs to watch the game, a bar and delicious seafood.
I'm orginally from Florida and used to a great seafood market. Being honest I think it was close as you can get to good seafood really good mouthwatering seasonings and bold flavors. If those sausages was a little bigger it was be 10x better then a homemade low country boil.
It was just ok for me. I ordered the Fried Catfish basket online. I had to wait an additional 15 minutes once getting there for my order to be completed. I requested the fish to be fried crispy and it wasn’t. It was just average.
Brought my girlfriend from Baton Rouge here to see how it measures. We left with full bellies and smiling faces. Customer service was exceptional! Drinks were great and the snow crabs and crawfish were succulent and full of flavor. Definitely will be back!
Very friendly welcoming atmosphere ... very spacious! Good music, Clean bathrooms! Fresh food w. REAL butter lol! They give a lottt of food! Worth every penny. I didn’t try the drinks but I will next time!
I absolutely adore this place! The food is legend... wait for it.... dary. It's far better than Juicy Crab. It's flavorful, not too salty, and the seasonings can be mild, medium or hot.
The service is fantastic.
I love, love, love this place.
Not going to lie this is one of them places that they food taste the same every single time, & its ALWAYS GOOD. Better than juicy crab !!!! Our server Cam took very good care of us !!! Highly recommended
I am here way more than I should be. Food is amazing. You won’t be disappointed
We had a couple Treasure Chest boils yesterday in garlic butter sauce at medium spiciness and I have been thinking about it ever since then. Everything in the boil was delicious! Love love love the sauce! The fried calamari appetizer was also delicious.
Few recommendations FOR THE BUSINESS OWNER: Consider adding metal cutlery for dine-in customers and supply plastic only for to-go orders. Switch from plastic sauce dishes to ceramic or metal. Switch from styrofoam plates to ceramic plates (my plate deformed from the hot food.) Stock longer straws for the very deep drink cups.
My daughters and I had a date night here on Wednesday evening, we were reluctant to go because we had never heard of them before and it would be our first time. We were currently reading reviews on juicy crab (where we had intentions on going) Read a lot of BAD REVIEWS but at the end of the last one we read it said DONT WASTE YOUR TIME YOUR BETTER OFF GOING TO PIRATES BOIL!
So we did and loved it! From being greeted at the door to the time we left it was nothing but GREAT SERVICE. The Food is amazing, seasoned just right and you get your money’s worth. But most of ALL OUR SERVICE FROME TY AND JASMINE WAS AWESOME 👏 VERY PROFESSIONAL AND ENERGETIC. They connected with my girls right away lol kept us smiling and laughing every time they came to check on us.
PIRATES BOIL GET 10 ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️‘S from us!
I gave this place 3 stars. My concerns were how salty the sauce was, the sausage was also very salty and rubbery. The crab legs didn't seems fresh. I didn't finished my meal and I didn't asked for a to-go box. Will I go back? Maybe..
Wow! Just Wow, our service, as close to perfect as it comes, Thanks Tasha! The food was hot fresh and full of flavor. The drink were strong but that’s how I like mine. I can’t wait to go back again.
Excellent seafood! Service is good and staff is always friendly. The pirate's secret sauce is yummy. The only recommendation I have is that they need some vegetables on the menu. All of the sides are fried or carb heavy.
This is my SPOT! Well worth the money, I usually eat off the Master of the Sea 2 different times once I'm home bc its soooo much food. Service always on point and those damn Strawberry Hennessy's get my everytime! No more Juicy Crab for me, not worth the hype!
Yea first time going here bc Juicys was too busy & let me tell you the crab legs, shrimp and all was better than Juicy to my surprise so I’ll be choosing here over Juicys for a while!!! Service was straight and atmosphere was nice!!!
Delicious food, reccomend the pirate's secret sauce! Will definitely be back!
I’ve been coming here since they opened. And boy , it’s still consistent yum 😋 & tasteful! …
They have only been open a week and a half. But juicy crab better watch out and they are literally right across the street from juicy crab. Juicy crab is too hit and miss so peace out to them. Pirates Boil I will definitely be back. The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating was because of the alcoholic drinks.
We went yesterday on a Saturday...The family took Mom here for Mother's Day because she likes seafood and we wanted something NEW!!! The positive is that the sauce was not salty. We made reservations for 7pm... We got sat immediately, but the service was horrible and food came out COLD after waiting almost 2 hours to eat. We had a party of 8. Drinks came out almost 45 minutes after we were seated and they forgot one, and that took another 30 minutes to get... We got our food about an hour and 45 minutes after being seated and it came out COLD... Who wants to eat cold seafood after waiting hours to eat? We were so hungry we just ate what we had. I sent mine back and it STILL DIDN'T COME BACK HOT... We watched tables that were seated after us eat and leave. We spoke to the manager on duty as he was walking by about our missing drink, and he was nonchalant and acted as if we were an inconvenience to him. Needless to say, he didn't get our missing drink (which only takes a second to grab)... He kept right on walking..We paid the FULL bill and left a tip, but will not be back. It was a total waste of money...They forgot items in our meals, and it was just a HOT MESS... The women's restroom was disgusting with vomit in the sink and paper all over the floor... They got the sauces wrong in the bags. Worst experience ever... The food was not worth taking pictures of. I snapped some of us while we waited...
I LOVE this place!! The food is so fresh and HOT! The service AMAZING ! They check on you multiple times without you having to tackle someone to put attention to your needs. I was a fan of juicy crab but it’s just way to crowded and terrible service. I have been plenty of times but these past few times the crab was way over cooked and serve said that’s how it suppose to be... anyways.. the pirate boil gives you so much food.. price is def worth it!!!! They have selected heats for your flavors as well! Oooo the drink menu !!?? Yummmmm!!! They have a drink that comes in a pouch and omg !! I’ll take 10 ! Lol. This place def has my business!
This restaurant is super clean....food is better than the Juicy Crab and I love them also, but the staff sets this spot above in a class of its on...rock on!!!
The food was so delicious. It was seasoned to taste and our waiter David was the best! Respectable and Quick to take our order.
It was ok. Not bad but wasn't great.
I would say awesome and flavorful as well as affordable seafood. I would definitely visit again
It was okay. Took forever to get our food and drinks. Once we did get our drinks, they were warm and the ice was melted. The food (in my opinion) wasn't worth the price I paid.
Everything was excellent! The atmosphere, the service, and the food was superb. I went with my family and we all enjoyed ourselves.
Sunday 7/13/20
My friends & i visited Pirates Boil we are there at least once a week rather take out or dine in.
Well yesterday we had Kyia P at Table F2 check out at 5:40pm per receipt/check #189
Kyia was very un-attentive, at one point I got another waitress to get her attention to bring us some condiments.
Also, my friend ordered a second drink which Kyia forgot about.
She did not bring the bucket to throw the trash in for the boiled seafood. which is common when dining in.
Another table had received their appetizers, drinks, and food before us and had left about time we received our food.
Perhaps Kyia was in training but, I frequent Pirates Boil pretty often I would like for service to be prompt.
By the way - I do feel like management allowed more than the CDC recommended amount of guests in the restaurant yesterday.
The Pirates Boil is a new seafood restaurant located on Cobb Parkway. The staff here are amazing people, and the food is pretty good! They have a full service bar, an urban vibe, and plenty of TV’s for watching sports. It’s a perfect place to go grab a seafood boil with friends !
Had a bad experience at the juicy crab across the street. Made a reservation here for 9 people. We were seated within 30 minutes. Food was great and customer service was great.
Sooo I went 3 days in a row Can u say loved it!! And will be back!! Great food 😋 seafood is on point and the drinks!! Adult capri suns and yummy Pina colodas. …
Just opened food and atmosphere was great. Crab cluster was a good size. Pirate season-mild, was good but not over powering, larger than the Juicey Crab across the street
My first time here and the experience was amazing Cam was our server and was on top of his game from to start to finish. If you was to rate his service from a scale to 1-10 i say 10 plus
I’m not very big on seafood. Let’s start there. My girl.... an Aficionado. I’ve been to all the popular seafood spots with her. This place right here! Something different. The seasoning alone had me hooked. Do yourself a favor
First time trying them. The food was above average. The wings are better at Juicy Crab though. But the setup is better here. I’ll come back and try out some more and the menu
We got the standard boil to share and it was delicious! I love the decor and the staff was very nice! We will definitely come back.
Food was great we sat at the bar and the bartender wasnt friendly at all.
The Pirates Boil was so good!!!! Staff was very professional, the environment was clean and fast service I loved it! Charles is the best waiter loved him he gave me a great first impression and I will be back because of his awesome service. Love it!
It was good, not great. The server was very pleasant. Nothing negative about the experience at all. They just didn't give me anything better than Juicy Crab. Im a foodie, I need that "bang".
It was our first time here . Love this place. Food was great and jasmine was wonderful . Ty
Good food, the muscles were great! The waitresses are excellent. One bartender and hand walks the drinks (like a balancing act).
Spacious, clean, friendly and absolutely delicious! We loved the cajun garlic butter sauce the most! Our server, Q, was awesome!
I loved the atmosphere. The place is large so everyone isn't stacked on top of one another. Food was really good and so was our server.
This was my 2nd time eating here, I never make it past the boil bags! 1st time the seasoning was delicious but this last time it was so SALTY I literally got sick half way in. I may try other dishes on the menu but I'm afraid to attempt another boil bag😣 …
I feel so guilty because I was here on Sunday and it’s only Tuesday and I’m ready to go back! Better than juicy crab by far! And my server was great his name is Daron! Ask for him!
My 1st time. I was there for lunch ,I had 2 fresh dozens of oysters 😋 and a catfish po boy sandwich. The food was great and the prices was not bad, enjoyed. …
This is the best sea food spot in the ATL area. Hands down
I like how fresh and fast our food came out. The drinks were watered-down and not good.
Amazing!! Devon was wonderful. She made our first visit our reason to come back. Food was delish!!! Highly rcommend the pirate sauce wings and I know my wings!!
The food here is great. I like the decor and ambience. It is fairly new, so they are still working out the kinks. But I will definitely be back for more
Reminds me of Juicy Crab before they raised prices and started giving horrible service with hour plus wait times. Unfortunately I found out they lie about the measurements of sauce you can buy separately. The sauce is $3 and some change for “half a pint,” which is ONE CUP and they only give 2/3 a cup (I actually measured it). If it’s 2/3rds JUST SAY THAT but don’t lie. I do love how they strategically say “half a pint” instead of JUST BARELY ONE CUP. I don’t mind paying for 2/3rds but call it 2/3rds or else give me all of the sauce you claim I am purchasing.
It was Christmas Day & I was looking for something different to go with my side dishes @ home. I ordered The Captain's Pick & I almost bit my fingers off! The flavor was better than any boil I've ever had. Thank you The Pirates Boil for the party in my mouth!
Food is fantasy and not overly crowded! The service unfortunately is a hit or miss. I say it’s about training, some just don’t know what they doing as a server and some act like they don’t want to be there. Some are very nice tho!
Some of food was just okay my daughter had to keep sending her food back they couldn't get her order right and our waiter looked overwhelm all in all not a bad establishment
This was a great first visit for me and I will be back again. The service was great and the prices not bad either.
We got the Treasure Chest and it was great.
Probably the best crab legs I've ever had. Amazing experience great staff overall just incredible.
Tasty crab legs! Lots of varieties. Fair prices.
Our server Brittany was A1, we were there celebrating a anniversary. Good vibes and good food.
My food was delicious and fresh. I bought the Treasure Chest with Black Mussels in the Pirate's Secret/Signature Sauce. It was not salty at all and is very light.
As a seafood connoisseur....this place is by far the BEST ive had in a longggggggg time. I worked at the competition for 3yrs and didnt try this place because of it....but its a WRAP for them now definitely cause baby....straight 10 out of 10
I rather go here than juicy crab. They are friendly here so far and I come here almost every week. The New Orleans flavor and juicy Cajun is so good!
Excellent service and the food was great! Price is better than most and portion size was more than expected. 👍🏾
One of my favorite spot near home ... juicy crab can’t compare in terms of food favor , drinks and customer service ... this time I decided to write a review .. thank you Cam for the great experience!!!!!
Last minute late night dinner. Its much bigger inside then it looks from outside. The musice was lit.when we walked in. People were eating and socializing.There was familys and couples mostly.
Masks are enforced. Service was great. Food delicious. We had a great time.
Went with my lady for the seafood boil. They did not disappoint! Nice clean and good energy environment.
Omg!!!!!! Joe is amazing! He just make the best drink ever! The food is good, atmosphere is amazing. Will for sure be back!
Food is always great here highly recommended
The place is clean and the staff very courteous. Wanted to try since they opened but was hesitant the food would be as salty as some other places but it wasnt. Hope they dont change. Price reasonable too.
This place is phenomenal! Great staff and even better food and alcoholic drinks! Highly recommended and we will definitely be coming back !
I just had someone there preselect a tip without my knowledge after being there waiting for a preorder for a long period of time. I dont like that practice and find it unethical. Otherwise the food is fantastic.
Excellent, delicious and good service.
The food here is among 😋 the best in ATL hands down, not to mention customer service
Great oysters and great service.... bartender was awesome!
Juicy who? This place has replaced the local seafood spot that are popping up like starbucks. Great staff. Orders always correct.
Our new go to spot. I always get the lemon pepper wings and the Starter pack which comes with a lot of shrimp, sausage corn and potatoes. That secret sauce is everything.
Pirates boil gave awesome customer service and the food was soo good. Much better than juicy crab. We will be returning soon
A chill spot with good oysters. We were greeted by everyone and there was free ice cream lol. I really liked it. It’s a tucked a way gem.
1st time here with my family...Food was great as well. Our waitress was so nice & definitely will be back soon.
Food was fabulous. Great waitress and service. Better than Juicy Crab my opinion
Food was absolutely amazing no shortage of flavor. The best seafood I've encountered to date!
I absolutely love this place. I go get it every time I’m craving seafood on that side of town!
New establishment. Amazing waitress with great food recommendations. The food was fresh and good. Reasonable prices and you receive lots of food for the money you pay.
Nice place to go for a date or family night
Ty was AMAZING! His was super attentive and customer focused. Ty, thank you so much for being the best part of our day. - your fav table!!!!!!

Very satisfied with this place, we tried the calamari, fried shrimp basket and the treasure chest with the pirate's secret seasoning...it was really good and our Server Kyia was very helpful and provided great service.
I love The Pirate Boil. The staff was amazing, friendly, and knowledgeable. The food was cooked to perfection. I definitely recommend. I love the fact you can reserve a table online.
I was there Oct 3 for my birthday and I came from Baltimore Md omg this was the best seafood I tasted ever . I love it in Atlanta l wish I could live there ..
The food was amazing. My daughters and I really enjoy our time there. I highly recommend this place.
I was pleasantly surprised...I came here totally unplanned and the atomosphere was a healthy balance of chill and lit...I had the best experience thanks to my sweet, funny waitress Kyia...she was attentive and pleasant...
Great service and amazing food. I’d love to say it was just as great as juicy crab. Loved the music played as well
It was wonderful and you get more than when you eat at Juicy Shrimp -the waitress was wonderful
Love this place. Great vibe, great service, great food!
I would suggest edited music there were a handful of kiddos and much older people there - some of the language 😬😆 …
