The Boiling Crab

The Boiling Crab is a casual, family-friendly restaurant specializing in Louisiana-style Cajun seafood. Corporate and franchise locations are currently in Northern & Southern California, Las Vegas, and Dallas, with plans to expand domestically and internationally. It all began in a little Southeastern Texas town called Seadrift. With a population of just 2000, Seadrift was home to Yo'Daddy and his family of crabbers and fishermen. They labored in their boats year-round, catching oysters, crab, and shrimp for the seafood industry. As toiling as the work was, every weekend the men would come home with their catch of the week to enjoy – they boiled crawfish and crabs, shucked raw oysters, grilled fresh fish – always with a beer in hand. In 1995, Yo’Daddy met the catch of his life: Yo’Mama. With their flair for having a good time, warm hospitality, and passion for excellent seafood, Yo'Daddy and Yo'Mama opened the first Boiling Crab in 2004. Now, with nearly 20 bustling Boiling Crab locations, everyone can experience the full flavor of a backyard crab fest.
