KING CRAB PARADISE — Restaurant in Arlington

First I want to say the server and employees were awesome people. No complaints there at all! Now the food, a completely different story. We went there when they opened and they gave us old food. You could tell it was old because the sauce on it looked like it had been refrigerated. If you have ever had a butter based sauce and refrigerated it, you know what it looks like when you try to reheat it. It doesn't melt the same. That's what the sauce looked like. It was clumpy and thick. The crab meat was stuck to the inner shells (this is also something that happens when shelled fish are reheated). The corn was hard like it had been microwaved. You couldn't even chew through it. Sausage tasted like cheap hot dogs. Potatoes were probably the only thing not reheated because they had zero flavor. I was in disbelief. I didn't eat it and it tasted so bad that I didn't even want a to go bag. I told them to just throw it away. They took like $10 off my meal which I accepted but I literally ate 3 crawfish tails, an egg, one bite of a potato and one crab leg because I couldn't get the meat out of the one I attempted. It was horrendously terrible. By far the worst seafood boil I've ever had in my life and I'm disappointed because all of the reviews say otherwise. Maybe it would have been great had it not been old af, but I'll never know because returning is not an option. I spent $80 only to leave there and go eat somewhere else....

Starting this review off first to say STARRZ is a phenomenal waitress, I have encountered her sweet spirit and friendly attentive service twice now. Carlia is also a great waitress as well. The both of these ladies will keep great reviews coming their way! The manager comes by and table checks as well and they are all very friendly. This is the reason I came back again.

The first time I came here I got combination fried rice and the chicken wings. The rice was amazing and the amount of meat in it was very surprising. I thoroughly enjoyed it. The wings were fried to a perfect crisp and I love how they give you the whole wing part. I got Cajun and the other half were the KC paradise seasoning. Unfortunately that batch was a little too salty for me. I would get them just “dry “ the next time . Thought to try them out again since I love seafood boils and I see they have them. Went in and ordered the seafood bag with crawfish and crab legs! Garlic butter flavor to be exact. They give you a lot of crab and an ample amount of crawfish. crawfish though, were not seasoned well. I asked for spicy sauce on the side and the lady brought me a container with butter and a container with cayenne pepper pretty much. Not at all what I expected. I did get the KC paradise sauce on the side and that helped give it more flavor. More flavor in their sauces would make this boil so much better . The seafood did...

Review for King Crag Paradise

I cannot recommend King Crag Paradise enough! From the moment we walked in, we were captivated by the warm, welcoming atmosphere and impeccable service, but what truly made our experience unforgettable was Amy, our server. She was an absolute delight! Amy’s attentiveness, charm, and enthusiasm were the highlight of the evening. She made us feel like VIPs, ensuring every detail of our dining experience was perfect.

Now, let’s talk about the food. We started with the fried okra, which was crisp, golden, and seasoned to perfection—a true Southern delicacy. The green and black mussels were fresh, tender, and swimming in a flavorful broth that had us soaking up every last drop. Then came the stars of the night: the king crabs and Dungeness crabs. Wow! The portions were generous, and every bite was succulent, sweet, and perfectly cooked. You could taste the quality and care in each dish.

Amy’s recommendations were spot on, and her energy brought an extra level of joy to our meal. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed, always with a bright smile. Honestly, if you’re looking for an exceptional seafood experience, King Crag Paradise is the place, and if you’re lucky enough to have Amy as your server, you’re in for a truly...
