We went to Cajun Boil for a birthday and it was such a fun experience! The service was impeccable - the staff were super attentive and there was even a bell where you could request their service. We even asked for extra lychees in our cocktails and they happily accommodated our request. Loved all the little touches too including things like mouthwash, toothpicks and sanitary towels in the w/c. The only minor thing was the gloves for the seafood boil were a bit too big, and prices are on the pricier side.. but honestly, it was great vibes & defo a fab place to celebrate a special occasion. Highly recommend 🤍✨

Amazing food, amazing service and amazing atmosphere. The starters right down to the desserts were so delicious. I would recommend getting the crab dip and the wings as starters. The seafood boil sauce was garlicky, slightly sweet and filled with flavour. I lived every part of it. They also have tooth picks and mouth wash in their toilets which is a great touch.

Hey guys ☺️ So first , I called ahead to make sure they had a table for 5 people but it’s not mandatory. We got there and they greet us immediately, nice music, they showed us the menu , we chose our drinks and starters. Then we chose the main food , we decided to creat our own seafood boil since we wanted to separate the halal sausages from the pork sausages. Everything was perfect, they give you gloves and an apron, you can ask for a Bucket if you want . In total we spend 43£ each for 5 people , some people might think it’s pricey which is understandable however for the food , service and the ambiance it’s totally worth it personally. Now the pink lemonade was so good , the starters better and the seafood boil even better 🎉 they even have complementary shots if I am correct. The place is clean and let me tell you , the bathroom as disposable mouth wash and toothpick . Big shout out for the staff , they are great and specially Nara . Definitely going back and I recommend ♥️💋

Quick easy, great food. Definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for a local seafood boil - staff are friendly.. food is made fairly quickly Decent price. Chicken is halal, sausages are replaced with halal sausages, staff have mentioned no cross contamination for those worried.

Have been meaning to try here for the longest and we finally got round to it for a big group to celebrate a birthday - we had 20 of us and the whole experience was great. We were able to have everything off the menu and standouts were the creamy mussels, wings and the seafood boil itself. But save space for the dessert because the crème brulee and mango sticky rice is so good! Staff were great and attentive (esp for such a large group) and food came out in such a swiftly manner. Would 10/10 recommend!

My favourite spot for seafood boil!!! I’ve been here twice since it’s opened and we tried most things on the menu. I can safely say that they all hit the spot in terms of flavour. The attention to detail is like no other as you are provided with gloves, an apron, tools to help break the seafood, floss and mouth wash in the bathroom to make sure you have a pleasant experience. The vibes are great and the staff are super friendly. The cocktails and delicious too so don’t miss out on them! Definitely a great date spot or place to eat with a group of friends. Writing this review has got me craving it again so I’m already looking forward to my next visit!!

This food was absolutely fantastic. Every part of it was amazing, all the way to the desert. The flavours, taste, presentation .. I can't fault any of it. Lovely experience and amazing food.

Best seafood boil ever! You won’t find this kind of flavour in the sauce anywhere else 🤩 I recommend having the pandan creme brulee and mango sticky rice for dessert and cheesy crab dip for starter. The staff were friendly, attentive, and amazing - great vibes. If you’re looking for top-notch seafood with unforgettable flavours and a great experience, this is the spot. Will definitely be coming back!

I haven’t even left the restaurant yet and I’m posting this review. This is by far my favourite meal In London which says a lot. There is no better seafood boil anywhere, everything is seasoned to perfection and I couldn’t be more happy to come to this restaurant after having the seafood boil whenever it dropped online. Massive congratulations to Thuyy this is amazing, and deserves to be fully booked every day so get your reservations in!!
