The Best Restaurants for Dungeness Crab in the San Francisco Bay Area | Eater SF

"For an Asian-Cajun-style crab boil, it’s hard to beat this popular Alameda spot, where the crab — along with the crawfish, shrimp, sausages, and whatever else you want them to put in the bag — comes drenched in the shop’s extra-buttery, well-spiced sauce. The whole Dungeness comes topped with a mound of rice to soak up all the umami-laden crab fat or order the Auntie Nancy’s which pairs the crab with a pound of shrimp and a pound of clams." - Eater Staff

The 25 Best Restaurants In Alameda

"Hang Ten Boiler is the only Cajun and Hawaiian restaurant in Alameda that also has a very strong Warriors theme going on, so when you want to roll up your sleeves, de-shell some crawfish, and catch a game, this is where to go. Opt for anything fried—like the lumpia, katsu, and calamari, as well as the kalua pork—and an order (or two) of the garlic noodles that will pair with just about everything that’s already on the table. Then settle in under the “We Believe” mural and handwritten Sharpie-d notes all over the walls, and enjoy your spread. " - julia chen 1, lani conway

Hang Ten delivers on taste, quality, and generous portions. If you're looking for good flavorful, and satisfying Hawaiian-inspired food, you absolutely have to try their Lumpia, Garlic Shrimp, and BBQ Chicken. Highly, highly recommend!

My friends and I came to eat here and were pretty excited about it. The food was alright, and it could have been better if it had been served as soon as it was ready. The service was poor, and it felt as though the servers didn't know the menu well. If we had questions about substitutions, they responded with a question. Maybe it was just a bad day, and we got the tail end of that

Outstanding isn't the word to describe how amazing this place is! This was my first time visiting with my grandmother, a previous visitor, and we loved it. As soon as we came in, the waitress kindly greeted us and made us feel welcome. The food came within 10-15 minutes and we ordered two meals and spam musubi. Drinks came with paper straws and ice! I have no words to describe how the food tasted other than great. There was plenty of space for big and small parties. Area was clean and tidy. The waitress was also extremely nice and sweet.10/10 recommend!!

2nd time coming here. Loved it! I brought my daughter this time. It was her 1st time here. Had the best dinner with the best company. From start to finish 5 stars. The host and the servers were very attentive. We were greeted and seated immediately. They helped us order. Everything on the menu is delicious. We ordered garlic fries, garlic noodles, and the Auntie Nancy's combo with medium heat Cajun spice. We left there so happy with everything. Can't wait to come back. You should definitely stop by. You won't be disappointed.

My girlfriend and I went to this restaurant before watching a movie at the Alameda Theater nearby. It was a busy Saturday night, but we got lucky and found a table just in time. I was really in the mood for Kalbi short ribs, so I ordered that with a mac salad and buttered corn for only $20. That’s a great price because this kind of meat is usually more expensive at other places. The food came with a lot of meat, which was awesome. But, to be honest, it tasted just OK. The sauce was alright, but the meat was a bit tough and not as flavorful as I hoped. I’d give it a 3 out of 5 because it’s a good deal but not the tastiest. I’ve also tried their seafood like Dungeness crab and shrimp before, and that stuff is really yummy. So, next time, I’ll probably stick to the seafood dishes. The people working there were really nice and made sure everything was clean. They put paper on the table and had a roll of paper towels ready, which was helpful. The menu has lots of seafood and Hawaiian dishes that sound amazing. The place feels laid-back and fun, with a sports theme and TVs everywhere. So, if you’re looking for a chill spot with great seafood, this is a good choice.

Six of us were in Alameda for an outdoor event. We decided to have lunch here. I have been to Hang Ten Boiler numerous times in the past. The owner is the guy who created the original "We Believe" tee shirts over 16 years ago for the Golden State Warriors. I did not order the garlic noodles this time around as a side dish. I decided to have the Chicken Katsu plate, which included two sides - Island macaroni salad and steamed broccoli. The portion was pretty generous to the point I couldn't even finish half of my lunch. The cost was reasonable st $16, excluding tax and tip. Their food is also delicious. I recommend the garlic noodles, sweet potato fries and, of course, the chicken katsu. My sister had the Kalua pork with cabbage and a housemade salad. She said her pork was a tad salty. The steamed broccoli was lacking in seasoning. I should have asked for some soy sauce. Service was good and the wait time wasn't long. There were so many choices on their menu. It was hard to decide what to order. Street parking can be problematic. There is a public garage about 1-1/2 blocks away on Oak Street. AC buses 51A and 20 are within walking distance.

Great spam masubi & mac salad. BBQ chicken also good. Garlic noodles could have used a fry/char. Huge portions so the price made sense, feel free to share a plate. Cozy spot for a casual date, beers on tap. Service was so friendly and attentive.

I ordered the Aunty Nancy dish, which features a whole Dungeness crab. While the food itself was absolutely delicious, the dining experience was far from acceptable. The waitress didn’t offer any apron or gloves, and when we asked for crab-cracking tools, we were told they didn’t have any. How can you serve a whole crab without providing the basic tools needed to eat it? We paid $125 and expected a complete, thoughtful dining experience. To make matters worse, the restroom was in an appalling state—paper towels and toilet paper scattered all over the floor. As someone who also works in the service industry, I understand the challenges, but cleanliness and basic hospitality should never be overlooked. Food was undeniably amazing, but the lack of proper service and poor hygiene ruined the experience. Unfortunately, I won’t be dining in again.

4.5/5: Jordan's combo 2lbs shrimp and 1 lb clams at market price was about $55. They didn't have the Steph Curry sauce so we had the hang 10 special is the Cajun flavor. The shrimp was extremely fresh one of the freshest I've had from a seafood place and I'm pretty sure they gave more than 1 pound of clam! We got medium spicy and it hit just perfectly. There was a ton of garlic in the sauce. 4/5 side of the garlic noodles. Appreciate that they have it in a smaller portion. liked that there was a hint of sweetness to it, but thought it could've used more garlic flavor. Service was good, nothing to really comment on. Liked that they had a lot of tvs. There was also a lot of workers for such a small shop. Beware though, only one bathroom! One suggestion is to maybe put the market prices for the seafood on a board daily?

Since Dungeness crab season had just recently started, my friends and I considered doing a crab boil at home. However, the thought of picking up fresh crabs from the store or pier, gathering all the seasonings and equipment, and prepping for a large group of ten felt like way too much work. After dining at Hang Ten Boiler, I can confidently say I have no regrets about choosing to go out instead. We called Hang Ten a day in advance to see if they could accommodate our party of ten. They told us we'd be put on a waitlist, since they don't take reservations. To be honest, I'm sure exactly what the difference is. Fortunately, when we showed up on Friday at 6:00 p.m., the restaurant was nearly empty, and we were seated right away at a large combined table. A heads-up about the menu: the seafood prices aren't listed, just "MP" (market price). I looked around for a chalkboard or something displaying the prices but didn't see one. In hindsight, we probably should've just asked, but be aware that ordering crab is much pricier than shrimp. My wife and I shared a 2 lb. bag of shrimp and clams, which came out to $55. Meanwhile, our friends, who shared a bag that included crab, ended up paying over $100. It's a lot of food, but don't expect it to be cheap. Come with a big appetite or plan for leftovers. As for the food itself, it was hit or miss. Most of the shrimp were well-cooked and plump, but the clams were shriveled, tiny, and flavorless. The corn soaked up all the broth's flavor and was delicious, and I'd definitely recommend getting hot links if you like sausage in your seafood boil. Be warned: the spice levels here are intense! I usually handle spice well, but even the medium was pushing it for me. My friends ordered spicy, and after one bite, I had to tap out. This meal will put you in a food coma. The seafood boil is heavy, and they do not hold back on the butter. Despite the plastic bibs and gloves they provide, expect a mess--be mindful of what you wear! Because our group was so large and we had so many different orders, they forgot to bring over one of the included bowl of rice. When we asked about it, they eventually brought it over, but later, we realized it had been added to the bill as an extra charge. We also tried a few sides--Cajun fries, garlic noodles, and mac salad. All were solid, but the garlic noodles were the clear favorite. Overall, Hang Ten is a solid spot for a seafood boil, but it comes with a few caveats: the prices aren't transparent, the food is rich and messy, and service can be a little spotty. If you come prepared for all that, you'll probably have a good time.

I've been to Hang Ten back when they first opened in Alameda. It was the best. It was better than boiling crab in my opinion. That was back then. I came back on a Friday night since it's been years, I was ready to feast. I'm not sure what happened but the food and service was not it. There were about two servers and throughout the evening, ours just wasn't attentive. Now onto the food, I will say the shrimp were huge but the flavor kind of made me sick to my stomach. I couldn't finish it. The garlic noodles were okay but i remember them being amazing. The only thing that was the same to me was the Cajun fries. I don't think I will be back for a while but I am glad to see it was packed.

If you're craving some real-deal Cajun food, hang ten is the spot. From the moment you step in, you're greeted by the rich, spicy smells of gumbo, jambalaya, and crawfish. The vibe is laid-back and fun, with a touch of New Orleans charm mix with a lot of Bay Area sport culture. Food: I went with the classic Bay Area special - garlic noodles, and wow--it did not disappoint. Also got the shrimp and crayfish. The shrimp were perfectly seasoned, with just the right amount of heat. The crayfish were steamed thoroughly, and they soaked up all the delicious sauce. The house special sauce is different, it has a curry based to it and not alike any other Cajun style resturaunt Service: The staff here is super friendly and really knowledgeable about the menu. Our server gave some great recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed without hovering. The food came out pretty quickly too, which was awesome. Vibe: The place has a cozy, down-home feel to it, with Bay Area decor that makes it feel like you're dining right in the heart of the bay. The music adds to the atmosphere, but it's not so loud that you can't carry on a conversation. It's the perfect place for a casual night out with friends or a date night if you're in the mood for something a little different. It's got great food, a fun atmosphere, and the kind of comfort you want when you're in the mood for bold flavors and good vibes.

I actually just went in for Musubi. I had been craving it and it was the only place that served Musubi in Alameda. I got it with a side of Mac, whenever I see Hawaiian Mac on the menu, I always have to order it. Both were delicious! I ordered two Mac portions thinking they would be small, but the portion was huge! I will definitely be back to try the other items on the menu!

My favorite take out seafood boil for sure. The flavor is always good and on point. Their garlic noodles is so good with the sauce. Their rice plates are very good too. Very well seasoned and good portion. Can't go wrong with the food here. It's my favorite take out place because service isn't good. I dined in a couple times, different servers but they all seem like they hate their job and service take super long and not at all attentive.

My friend told me she was coming here once a week so I had to stop by! We ordered 2lb of shrimp with the hang ten seasoning, garlic noodles, cajun fries, and a side of rice. Service was really good here and it was busy on a Thursday night! Shrimp - We ordered head on and it was fun putting in the work to peel them! The hang ten seasoning was really good and my friend was making little rice balls to dip into the sauce. So good! This place also provides a bib and gloves, but the gloves were a little too thin. Garlic Noodles - Garlic noodles were good - I was also dipping this in the shrimp sauce! My friend who always orders garlic noodles gives these a 8/10. Cajun Fries - The fries could have used more seasoning but the texture was good.

This used to the place we get Hawaiian and Cajun food. After a couple experiences where the take out food was subpar, we decided to dine in tonight. The dine in experience confirms our experience and more. Let's start with the physical location. Where we were seated reeks and it either came from under the bench or the storage space behind a door (not the bathroom). This made it so unpleasant to eat. Throughout the night, they didn't even come by to check in on us or to ask if we needed more water - and yet we have to pay service charge because we were a part of 5 or more. I wouldn't mind the two issues above as much if the food was fabulous. But it was far from that. The loco moco was absolutely terrible - burger patties that are hard, chewy, and the gravy was nothing but brown colored sauce. The kalbi was so chewy that even Trader Joe's kalbi was at least 5x better. Only thing that was palatable to me was fried catfish and calamari (even then they aren't enough to bring me back as I can find better elsewhere). Time to up the game and bring back the great food, or I don't think this place is going to last long.

I am a sauce girl, I love sauce and I dip everything in sauce. If I end up with extra you bet I'm putting that in my carbs. The sauce and some sweet corn? Yummy combo. Last time I went with my family we got garlic butter sauce which was great. Hang Ten sauce was saltier, but also delicious and equally garlicky. In comparison, garlic butter feels lighter and "cleaner". But let's be honest, seafood boil is not meant to feel clean. When you get seafood boil it's time for butter and feasting! Garlic noodles were great. They're garlicky and sweet. I recently returned for a birthday meal and got the Cajun sauce over shrimp...which I thoroughly enjoyed and am drooling thinking about it. Again, as a sauce girl I am drenching my rice and noodles in that sauce. I remember coming here since high school so it's been around at least 10+ years at this point, and it remains a solid place to get seafood broil locally. The seafood gets easily overdone sometimes in a boil like this but not enough to be unenjoyable. I'll be returning for sure!

I noticed Hang Ten while picking up lunch from another establishment. Hawaiian & Cajun Fusion sounded interesting. Service the 1st day was immediate and on point. I had fried oysters, shrimp & garlic noodles. I asked for cocktail sauce but they only have their house, remoulade like sauce, sriracha & maybe a third choice. I'm from the south. Cocktail sauce is a must. Fried Oysters 3.5outta5 excellent seasoning, crispy bite, with a moist explosion across the palate. Their size threw me off though. I've never had fried oysters that big. I still enjoyed them. Fried Shrimp 4.5outta5 excellent seasoning & cook. My only gripe is when dipping, the breading falls off. Garlic Noodles 3outta5 Garlic flavor was explosive, loved it! However them barely being lukewarm, the noodles were waxy & left a film behind. They seemed precooked. Someone else would absolutely love them. Service the 2nd day wasn't so immediate but training was occurring. No harm, no foul. I had the fried shrimp again. Same as before & again enjoyed. The shrimp were initially presented smothering the fries. That's a peeve a mine. It causes the fries to lose their crispness & I like others, prefer the food to be separated on the plate/basket. Garlic Fries 2outta5 The garlic flavor was lacking, nothing compared to the noodles. The potatoes were okay, previously frozen. I like the menu. I have to try a boil! Lunch is relatively quiet but I'm sure it gets busy & lively. I'll be back...

I was cold, I was hungry, and my tennis captain who was cold and hungry with me wanted seafood after we'd been walking around a beach in alameda in the winter. She said she remembered this seafood place that had warriors decor so we drove on over. Hang Ten Broiler is an institution and should be treated as such! Their dedication and commitment to the Warriors theme is admirable and beautiful. Their Steph Curry sauce is immaculate and garlic noodles are perfect. Come hungry because portions are large and vibes are good.

Revisiting our favorite Hawaii/cajun spot. We were seated right away even though the place was packed and we were just catching the tail end of the local high schools students lunch break. As soon as they all left we had the place to ourselves. Our server Eve/Evessa was awesome! She had trouble taking out because we were ordering for here and to go orders. And we got our drinks, apps and shrimps quickly. We all had shrimp (headless and head on with garlic butter and mild kick ) they provide bibs and gloves upon request as well as lemons and s&p. If we only lived nearby we definitely would come by here all the time but whenever we are in the area it's a must stop. Their food never disappoints. The employees are always so nice and provide excellent service and the ambience even though it's small it has that good vibes feel and their playlist is on point too. Will always definitely come back when we can. Highly recommend. 10/10.

Hang Ten is a great spot for a seafood boil in Alameda! My friends took me here while I was in town because we were all craving some crabs. Unfortunately, when we arrived, they didn't have enough crab for a seafood boil of its own. My friend ended up getting one of the combos since it came with some of the crab but this was definitely a disappointment. The inside was spacious, clean, and the staff was attentive and friendly. You can tell this was a proud Bay area establishment with all the Golden State Warriors decor all over the walls. The food came out in a pretty timely manner. I ended up getting a seafood boil with some crawfish and shrimp. I added an extra potato and asked for rice. The price point for how much we got was pretty good! Overall, a solid spot for a seafood boil!

10000000/10! The best seafood boil I've had. I love Asian infused tastes in my seafood boil and this place absolutely nailed it! We ordered snow crab and shrimp with garlic noodles! Everything was delicious and lasted us two meals! The portions are HUGEEE and super reasonably priced. The staff were amazing, the establishment is clean, and everything was delicious! I'm so sad the one in Hayward closed! I'm definitely visiting again!

A nice n warm spot for a delicious, quick lunch after the movies. A short walk from Alameda theater. We were seated immediately. The staff were extremely nice. Even on a rainy day. This place was busy. The food was just the right amount of spice. I have never really cared for spam but they changed! My mind. The shrimp and lobster was super fresh and made this quick lunch feel like a trip to the island! I recommend getting the shrimp in any form. Street parking, and a parking garage close by The restrooms are sort of clean but I think that's because they're so busy.

This was our second time here in two months. We loved it the first time and decided to go here for a Friday date night. We weren't disappointed! We were greeted right away and were able to choose our seat. We picked a booth seat where we can watch the Warriors game. Server came by right away and took our drink and food order. She was so pleasant and brought out our drinks quickly. The restaurant is not too big and has some handwritten writing and signatures around. Restroom is gender neutral. About 30mins into our meal, the restaurant was pretty packed. But no significant wait for any of the parties that came through. Dont forget to ask for your bib. They dont automatically give them to you. We loved our food! Service was wonderful! One of our go to spots in Alameda now :) What we ordered: Auntie Nancy's Cajun - medium spicy (has some heat to it) Jordan's Lemon Peper - mild Garlic noodles Cajun fries Kona beer Green tea

Came here on a whim with a friend as she had heard good things. Staff and Service: - Find a table to sit at and a server will come take your order - The staff was nice and the staff member that helped us was good with recommendations and explaining the different sauces Food: - Garlic Noodles: average garlic noodles - BBQ Chicken Plate: ordered this with a side of broccoli and rice (you can choose two sides). This plate comes with so much food! I felt like the chicken was never ending, so I had a good amount to take home - Mac Salad: I also got a side of Mac salad. I would say this would be in my top two Mac salads I've had. The noodles were good, the flavor was good, and it wasn't overdone with mayonnaise. - Lumpia: comes with ~8 lumpia and sweet chili sauce. This dish was also tasty and good for sharing Miscellaneous: - Parking can be found via street parking or in the parking garage

Yum!! Hang Ten is my favorite Cajun place in the Bay Area. I came here on a Thursday night and there was no wait. We ordered the Jordan's combo (which comes with shrimp, clams, potatoes, corn, and we added sausages also), and a garlic noodle. The food came pretty quick. The noodles were so garlicky, and portion size was huge. The seafood tasted pretty fresh. We got it with a medium spicy Hang Ten sauce and it was so good, flavorful, and they definitely don't skimp out on the amount of sauce. Overall would come back again!!

This was one of my friend's favorite go to place! She highly recommended their garlic noodles & garlic butter sauce. Anything they do with garlic is so good!! We got da seafood - 1bs Shrimp with Garlic Butter. With a corn add on. Super flavorful! Got garlic noodles on the side - really nice carb combination to have! With the shrimp leftovers (sauce and everything), we made fried rice with it the next day. Left no crumbs.

Delicious food and super large portions. Was able to eat left overs for two meals after. Service was quick and friendly. Came for early dinner on a weekday and we were one of two parties. Warriors murals and decor everywhere. I would love to come back and try their lunch plates and garlic shrimp plate.

I hadn't been here in a few years. Ordered crab and shrimp. Everything on their menu is cooked in a sauce and it makes the shrimp a bit mushy. It is very messy and it would be awesome if they offered plain boiled shrimp and crab served just with lemon. They might do it but it is not on their menu.

Hang Ten is one of my partner and I's staple East Bay restaurants to dine in. Sports pretty much always playing on the TV. Our order also never usually changes when coming here. We usually order the Danny's catfish basket which comes with Cajun fries along with the Jordan's combo which comes with 2 lbs shrimp & 1 lb clams, 2 corn, 2 potatoes, and your choice of bread or rice. Not sure why that's always been our staple order as we never finish the seafood boil, corn, potatoes or rice... guess it's just convenient since it's prefixed. Jordan's Combo -- 4.5/5. We usually get hang ten (Cajun) spicy and would say it's like a 6-7/10 on the spice chart depending on the day.. or chef? We get 1 lb shrimp head off and 1 lb shrimp head on. I personally prefer head on because I feel that the shrimps are cooked softer and taste better. My partner prefers head off for convenience of not having to rip the heads off I'm sure but keep in mind it's $5 more PER pound for head off. Danny's Catfish Basket -- 4/5. About 5 pieces of nicely battered catfish and Cajun fries. Serves as our appetizer usually. The sauce that is given with the catfish is very good.

My new go to place in Alameda! You get the best of both worlds with Hawaiian and Cajun food! Has the easy going atmosphere of any Cajun place I've been to with the exception expectation your hands are going to get dirty going through all the shells of crab, shrimp mussels, etc. Been here a few times and was never disappointed. The daily specials are great! That lava chicken is bomb. Get it with the fried rice like I did and you'll have too much food! The service here is great too. Very friendly with a smile and make sure you have everything you need. Always good when you don't have to ask to have your water refilled too! Overall I will be coming back and recommending to everyone!

Waitress with braids was nice but service was poor. We were being hovered and profiled by this waitress. I was sent a birthday gift in the mail so decided to come by to celebrate but was disappointed with the service brought with it. Racist workers. We weren't greeted in nor out like other customers. Constantly being watched by this person, watching our every move. Uncomfortable to place to be. This person comes checking our bill as if we couldn't pay for it! yet she's not our waiter but all in our mix. We won't be back.

We weren't planning on eating here, but walking by, on the way to Katz Meow, I passed the door to Hang Ten and the most delicious smell wafted out. Mnnnnn! Garlic and butter and seafood. Alyce and I are big eaters, so we decided on a platter that had clams, crab legs, prawns, corn on the cob, potatoes and came with white rice. It also came with a bib, gloves, and plasticware. There was a big roll of paper towels on the table and the waitress put a huge piece of paper on the table. When the food arrived, it was easily enough for four hungry linebackers. We ate and ate and ate.... The sauce was spicy and delicious, the waitress kept refilling our water, the lunch crowd thinned out. The wait people were incredibly kind and told us not to rush. So sweet! We got boxes for our leftover prawns and crab legs. Sooooo good!

Great lunch and very welcoming service. Will definitely go back. The place was not packed at 11:30am on a Thursday. We were received with welcoming smiles, that's always lovely. Proceeded to peruse the menu, had some questions and the owner was patient enough to answer them. Pleasant :) Please see my pics for exact dishes ordered as I dont recall the actual name listed on menu but it was ALOT of food, ALOT.. LOL Flavor wise, its how i expected Cajun seafood should taste. Spice level came thru as how it was explained & ordered, just right for my taste buds. I like it! Bonus points for the service, it just makes a great experience all that much better when you have nice friendly ppl helping/serving you. Great place to gather, share some yummy food and get your hands dirty type of place.. Fun times!

I was in the area for a BTS Holiday Market. We were looking for something delicious and different to eat for dinner, so lo and behold I found this dope little spot on Yelp. First I gotta say, I love how they rep the Dubs all day in their decor, so props for showing love to my favorite team! Now let's talk about this bomb ass food! I had the loco moco with a side of garlic noodles, now the side was $5.00 bucks, but damn it was a big ass bowl and money well spent! The hamburger and the gravy were so flavorful and the egg was made to perfection! It's the best loco moco I've ever had! The service was super great, fast, super friendly! A 10/10 for an overall great experience. Chill environment, with the Sunday night football game playing, what more could a guy ask for!

Just updating, still awesome! The marinade and sauce they use on the combo plate is A-MAZING as is the rice and sides. Parking can be a challenge some times, so I strongly recommend having someone call it in ahead and jump out of the car and pay and grab it! So yum!

4 or 5 stars for this place is craaazy IMO Mainly bc nothing's fresh and that's ok cause they're not advertising that it's fresh. Decent food. Good service. My table and I ordered Da Dub Basket, the Lady Dub Special & the Linda Special. Everything was hella mid. What I was really disappointed about was the lobster. It was overcooked and tough. Folks who come here and say the food is amazing don't know good seafood and that's a fact and I can tell you why. I'm sorry I don't usually mention other businesses on someone else's review but I have to. My favorite seafood spot in the Bay Area is New England Lobster Market in South SF. Their lobster is always fresh and I straight up die and go to heaven every time I eat there. If you've actually had fresh seafood you can not come to Hang Ten and say this place is worth 4 or 5 stars. Be fr. Anyways, sorry if I sound like a hater. I did have a good time and I do recommend coming here if you're near/around the Oakland area and don't wanna drive too far for better seafood.

Tiny place whose seafood delivers big on flavor. You might wait a while for a table but once your party is seated, you'll feel cozy and taken care of. So many options for seafood boil flavors and everything comes out reasonably quickly. It's guaranteed everyone at your table will stop talking and focus on the food when that happens. Enjoy!

Monday night, we were seated immediately. The server was pretty nice, came by a couple times. I don't know if what I've been eating isn't authentic, but I've never seen cabbage mixed in with the Kalua pork. It was fine. Just never seen it before. The garlic noodles are very garlicky and very good. Too bad I spent my whole dinner de-heading my daughters shrimp. She didn't order them headless like she should have. High maintenance teens and moms who can't say no. I will say, my only qualm is that my daughter asked for potatoes in her bag, and she got 2 potato halves. Having to pay an additional cost for potatoes, and getting 1 small potato seems a bit annoying. Oh. I guess my second qualm would be they didn't give us an itemized receipt. It was just, here's your total. $200. can't really say I appreciate that, I understand that the food is expensive, but I still want to know what exactly I'm paying for.

I like this spot! I've come here a few times now. Once to dine in and another time to take out. The restaurant is beautifully artistic with locals in mind. In particular, I love their adoration to the golden state warriors! There's even a nod to the great Steph Curry as Hang Ten offers their signature sauce. The shrimp is always juicy and packed with flavor. I usually go for the hang ten Cajun sauce either mild or medium spice. Once you pour the sauce over some rice and add shrimp on top, you've got yourself a THREE POINT SPLASH.

There are a few things in life that bring you a deep sense of joy. Hang Ten lady dub with steph curry sauce medium is one of them. The perfect blend of seafood stock (micro bits of the sea), garlic, butter, spice... make magic, liquid gold they say. Add perfectly cooked shrimp, clams, mussels, crawfish (crab if you're lucky). It's something that haunts you. Days pass and you will day dream about that moment. It's the perfect take out: First, you prep. Like some doomsday prepper. Roll of paper towels? check. Big glass of water? check. Multiple bowls for shells, rice feed zone, bag staging area. Clear path to sink for washing my hands. You get the bag and pour it out into bowl #1. You don't really want anyone to see you go carnal on that bowl. Sauce dripping down your wrists, sitting alone, long after your family is watching netflix... Another few minutes... honey, start the movie without me. I'm counting the days before I return.

Ordered catering for my son's birthday. Catering orders have to be placed in person which was a little inconvenient but nice to go to the restaurant, see it and smell some delicious food. Having not eaten here previously, I left excited for the order based on the food I was smelling and seeing at diners' tables. For about 15 people I ordered a half pan each of the macaroni salad, north shore garlic shrimp and kalua pork. The order was ready right on time for pick up and enjoyed! The macaroni salad and shrimp were the standouts! The kalua pork was a little dry, lacked flavor or seasoning and the tray had more cabbage than anything, even though I ordered without. I definitely want to try Hang Ten for lunch or dinner and get some real spicy seafood! All and all we had a great experience with catering and pickup. Thanks Hang Ten! Definitely a local, unique gem.

This place is really shady. They stole our money. My wife took my daughter and her friends there for a meal. She gave them $250 in cash to settle the $217 bill (tip is already included). She gave it to the owner. But a bit later, one of the server bought back just 3 bucks. She asked for the rest of the change, but the server claimed the owner guy said she only handed over $220. She asked to see him, but apparently he already left the store. When they called him, he also claimed that it was $220. I know this is not true because she didn't have a $20 in her wallet. We've been ordering food from this place for years. So just because of $30 they're willing to lose our patronage forever. Pathetic.

We had clams, shrimps and crawfish in Hang Ten spicy flavor. The shrimps and clams were cooked just right. We added the sweet corn and sausage. All came in one big bowl. Very tasty. Great hospitality and service. The Long Board Lager is good match with the spicy food. Will go back again with more people. It's a fun place for big group.

I am a former resident of Alameda and have eaten quite a few times at Hang Ten. The place is nicely decorated with Warriors art and paintings that show support for a basketball great! I thought that was very nice. But unfortunately when we entered, I wasn't sure anyone even saw us. After waiting a while, we were finally seated. The wait wasn't too bad, but acknowledgement would have been nice. Once seated, our server took our orders in timely fashion. Caution: Before ordering the crab, ask the price! The menu said "Market Price" and the server did not volunteer the information. I ordered a Dungeness crab with potato and corn and my wife ordered a fries oyster and shrimp platter. When our order was ready, another server with a pony tail and an attitude walked up and plops the food down in front of us. No eye contact and didn't ask if we needed anything. I felt like we really put her out. The fried seafood was good. I regret not getting that. Unfortunately, the Crab was terrible. I like plain crab boiled or steamed with Old Bay, so I ordered Cajun style. The crab was so strong with garlic, that the crab itself could not be tasted. What a waste. It was served in a bag and was very messy. I really hate the seafood in a bag trend. We also ordered Lumpia and Garlic noodles. Both were tastie! Finally the check. That single crab that I so didn't enjoy cost $50.00. I wish I had known. I have been to similar places and never paid so much! Ask before you order! I think in the future, I will avoid Da Bag and stick with good old fried seafood and appetizers.

The food was ok and pricey. It's good that they give a good amount of portion. I already went a lot of times and tried most of their menu.

"Can we get 2lbs of crawfish and .... " "Sorry we have no crawfish today! It's out of season." "*GASP* WHAT?! I'M HEARTBROKEN" That is exactly how my interaction went with the waiter when I came to Hang Ten for the Crawfish and the Crawfish only. Heartbroken. Also my fault for not realizing crawfish is out of season when I came... rookie of me. So my friends and I decided to get a pound of everything else on the menu. Hang Ten offers 4 different types of sauces and we had such a difficult time trying to pick sauces and spice. First world problems am I right? We got: shrimp (head on), manila clams, mussels, dungeness crab and king crab legs with garlic noodles, fries, and spam masubi. Everything was ok. Nothing made me feel like a mermaid and want to come back here. Some of the clams and mussels were just shell and no meat at all. The king crab legs had barely any meat too. Sigh The service was excellent though! Everyone who we interacted with was so fun and kind. MAYBE I'll come back for the crawfish when the season starts again.

Was in the mood for shrimp & crawfish. My gf lives further away so we decided to meet halfway. I've heard of this place, but never tried. Upon arrival, they check your temperature. We started off with sweet potato fries and a side of garlic noodles. It took awhile to get out. Next was our shrimp and crawfish which even took longer! They stated in the menu that it's made to order, so be mindful of that. Did the spicy with hang ten sauce. I loved it! It had a kick. I just didn't like that they gave us barely lemons or lime and it was difficult to squeeze. I gave it a 3 stars because there is a 10% grat to support them for Covid, increase in prices of food (could've gone elsewhere) and we waited a long time. Overall, pretty good, but not my fav seasoning. Wish it was more sauce. Sweet potato fries 5/5 crunchy ! Garlic noodles 5/5! Really liked the seasoning on this.
