We had been wanting to try this place out for some time, and finally went yesterday. We ordered the Alaskan, King Crab & Shrimp Combo. I was not disappointed. I also loved the genuine feel with the bibs and plastic table covers. Our waiter, Maxwell was one of the best parts of our visit. Patient, Attentive and unlike one of the other waiters, kind and personable. I'm gonna definitely tell others, and have them ask for Maxwell.

I did a lobster tail boil with extra potatoes, corn, eggs and sausage since I'm not a fan of shrimp. It was about 35 with a tip for what I ordered. It was my 1st time ever ordering a seafood boil and Pier 88 did NOT disappoint. We'll definitely be going back and hopefully dining in this time

We visited Pier 88 at around 5:30 PM on a Friday night and were seated right away. None of us had tried a seafood boil before, and it turned out to be absolutely delicious. We loved the experience. it was unique and a lot of fun to dig into the seafood, wear bibs, and embrace the messiness of it all. For our group (two men and one woman), we ordered: • 1 lb Dungeness crab • 1 lb snow crab • 1 lb white clams • 1 lb black mussels • 1 lb shrimp (head-on) The portions were perfect for us, and the boil included corn and potatoes, which were also fantastic. The food was so good that we could have easily eaten another pound. We ordered it with Cajun & garlic butter & medium spice. The medium spice was like a Thai spice level 4. Since it took some time to work through all the seafood, we recommend planning for at least an hour or more if you’re going for a big, social seafood boil like we did. We also ordered three beers and a soda, and our total came to 165 before tip. It was absolutely worth it, especially for the quality and experience, and we’ll definitely be back. The service was excellent, and the staff made the experience even better. Next time, we’ll be sure to try the crawfish since we’ve never had them before. We’re already looking forward to returning!

Family meal. Good service. Lunch time was a good time. We showed up before a rush of people. They spread out the seating. This was a good idea. Music playing. Only complaint was the restroom sinks were dirty. Also had snow crab and garlic bread. Overall a good experience.
