Still fairly new, Big Pot and Grill opened in 2018. Despite having been in business for just a couple of years, it’s already garnered a reputation for its flavorful fare, particularly the boiled seafood.

The palate-pleasing fare doesn’t end with the seafood, though.

Just like a real Cajun seafood boil, Big Pot and Grill offers “add-ons,” which include tasty sides, such as corn, potatoes, and sausage.

But the add-ons aren’t the only way you can customize your boiled seafood feast. You’ll actually have a say-so in everything from the type of seafood to the flavor and spice level used.

Sure to satisfy seafood connoisseurs, the seafood selection includes mussels, whole shrimp, headless shrimp, lobster tails, crawfish, king crab legs, and Dungeness crabs.

The selection of flavors is just as impressive as the variety of seafood offered. Choose between garlic butter, lemon pepper, Thai chili, hot ‘n sour, and lemongrass garlic.

The level of spice used is the last decision you’ll have to make. Options include mild, medium, hot, and extra hot.

Drenched in flavorful deliciousness, the boiled seafood can get a bit messy. Don’t worry, though, gloves and bibs are provided.
