Menu focus: crab, shrimp, clams, mussels and lobster

Start with the seafood you want to eat: the listed boils include Dungeness crab, snow crab legs, shrimp, clams and large mussels. The lobster is described as arriving pre-cleaned and opened, making it another option to consider alongside the shellfish mix. Heat can be tailored to taste, while the mild Cajun sauce is described as gentle, with almost no kick. Use those differences to plan your meal rather than assuming every boil has the same heat.

On Monday through Friday, lunch ends at 2:45 PM and dinner starts at 4 PM, so plan around the weekday afternoon break instead of assuming continuous service. Monday through Thursday close at 10 PM, while Friday closes at 11 PM. Saturday runs from 1 PM to 11 PM, and Sunday from 1 PM to 10 PM. These are the listed weekly hours; call the restaurant before a special trip to check for changes.

If a full shellfish spread is not your plan, compare the other dishes described in the listing. There are crispy combo baskets, buttery lobster rolls and a clam chowder served in a bread bowl. The drinks description includes nautically themed cocktails and mentions happy hour, but does not establish current prices or a timetable here. Choose the food style that interests you, then check directly with Aqua Boil for current menu details.
