Aqua Boil - New York City

This is the one place in NYC that I take all my visiting friends if they even somewhat like seafood. Solid seafood boil, and best lobster rolls I’ve had in the city. Do yourself a favor and get a side of garlic butter and drizzle it on top. You won’t have anything better.Food is always solid, service always friendly but food takes a while to get out usually. Definitely go eat here.

Been wanting to try this place for awhile, so I went with a friend after work.The menu has a good amount of options. I had the half pound crab legs (personally wish I got the pound), half pound of shrimp and a pound of mussels in the Cajun mix sauce.The food was delicious and seasoned just right. Note: the medium version of the Cajun Mix is a little spicy not excessive but if you don’t like spice then go with medium.The seafood boils come with potatoes and I ordered corn as my additional side. I took half my food home because it was a lot.The servers were attentive and made sure our water cups were always refilled.I enjoyed going during the week because it was not to busy and also not loud inside. The interior is small but you don’t feel like you’re on top of each other.I will definitely return when I’m in the mood for crab legs. ?

Everything was excellent. The food is outstanding fresh, fantastic flavors, good portions. I don’t have a picture of the boil because it doesn’t photograph well but it’s actually very fun to be served this way. The staff are also lovely. Would be great if they put something on the bottom of the chairs to cut out that loud noise when they move but that’s just a small tip. Doesn’t take away from the experience really. Wonderful place!

Amazing place!! One of my favourite in nyc. Yummy seafood for a good price, especially their lunch deals. Huge potions, so definitely could be shareable.I visit this place every time I’m in new york. I would definitely recommend it

Best seafood boil I have had so far! Sauce is very flavorful, and thick to coat you seafood. We had crab and shrimp. Both cooked to perfection. The margaritas were decent as well. Will come back soon, and I’m confident this is our new go to seafood boil spot.
