Ventura Crab N Spice 4732 Telephone Road, Ventura, CA 93003

"To our surprise, it was better than Boiling crab. We got the Captain’s Choice in the mild sauce. It was delicious! It was very busy during dinner time. I just want to say that the waitress were doing it all and they worked as a team to check in customers, taking orders and being the busser. But, it would be of great help for the waitresses to have a busser or /host to check in customers and clean tables to seat the customers. Unfortunately, place closed at 8pm but stop taking customers after 6pm because of the long waiting list. Very small space. But overall great food and waitresses."

"We have been this location many times since 2016. But now looks like now food quality is not the same. Recently we got 2 pounds shrimp, noodles and cajun pasta. Shrimp quality was cheap seafood buffet quality and i paid $13.99 per pound for those shrimp. I can tell shrimp was not fresh and already became mushy. My wife got upset stomach after eating those shrimp and eventually we throw away half the shrimps. When i ordered online it didn’t say cajun pasta has meat. But there was a meat in the pasta so also ended up throwing that away. I would say go to seafood buffet rather paying more to them for the same quality. I might avoid going to them again."

"I called in from Los Angeles to do a surprise anniversary dinner for my Best Friend & her Fiancé. The Manager Alicia was so helpful. She bought all the balloons and set up for me, took the order and have everything ready before they arrived. The Server Gisselle was perfect! I couldn't thank you guys enough for being so helpful! My Best Friend & her Fiancé loved everything!! Definitely, a must have!"

"We were enticed here from Facebook with BOGO ad, got here quarter to closing on Sun evening and was told that they only accepted takeout order at that time. Explained that we were only there because of the BOGO and it specifically said that dine-in is required. After checking with the manager, they OK-ed for us to dine in. We ordered just a pound of peeled shrimp each to make it a quick and painless experience for all parties involved. We've been here one time years ago and remembered their house sauce was pretty good and that's what we went with. Shrimp came out about 5+mins later and was piping hot and smelled heavenly. We were offered forks that we gladly accepted even though we were ready to get our hands dirty and already had bibs on. We ate quickly and also asked for to go boxes to enjoy the sauce over rice at home. We enjoyed the food and the girl who attended us was great. The two missing stars is due to restroom in dire need of cleaning, it was disgusting in there. We asked for peeled shrimp but tail is still on? BOGO did not specify that they only discount $15.99 and not covering the upcharge for peeled shrimp."

"SO SO GOOD! Started off with a Michelada , fried calamari , oysters and garlic noodles . Everything to the the point, good in taste, fresh and hot. Went with the pound of shrimps with the crab n spice flavor , damn that flavor is bomb , you just can't have one. Also got the salmon and mussels combo i With some slaw. The prices are fair too , not too pricey for the sea food . Service is amazing as well , very courteous staff. Must visit Checkout @whatscookinginLA for more"
