Had a great time! The food was great tasting and made well. The atmosphere was fun. Good seafood decor. Our service was fantastic!! Brandon did such a good job making sure we never needed a drink refill or extra sauce. It was great to have the extra attention to detail. Thank you!

Hook and Reel Seafood & Bar offers good fresh food and great service. Brandon was our waiter and he was excellent. I enjoy the shrimp poboy and Cajun fries. The shrimp were fried fresh as well as the Cajun fries. We also enjoyed the Shell Shocker. This dish entails snow crab, half pound of shrimp, corn and potato’s. Everything was seasoned very well and was flavorful. This selection is freshly boiled and served hot. The atmosphere was pleasant. The bar offers a sports theme which makes it a great place to grab a beverage and take in a game.

Very yummy boil; I’ve been here a couple time and honestly it’s better to get the premade selection and customize it you get more bang for your buck!!

After this big guy got done being pegged by the nice people outside. We decided to drown our sorrows with crab and alcohol this fine afternoon. Apart from his now tender rump, we had a great time. I'm upset I can't remember my servers name. She remedied the birthday boy back to full health with her laughter, and continuous flow of bugs from the sea.

Love their seafood broil, we had Dungeness crab cluster, scallops and corn with hook & reel house special blend and they were delightful! Catfish basket was also amazing. Came with different sauces: tar tar, cajun, some spicy sauce and cocktail sauce and they are all great. Portions were also reasonable.

Ordered the King Crab with Cajun seasoning ,extra spicy with a Cajun Candy Cocktail . I'm from south Louisiana and can tell you this seafood is worth eating. It's not a traditional Cajun sauce, but full of all the flavor. Just ask for spicy and you want me disappointed. Our server was absolutely the sweetest girl. She was on top of everything and genuinely sweet. Hands down the best restaurant I dined while in town.

I was born in Mississippi and visited New Orleans plenty, and recently relocated here in Utah. Let me tell you, it's a good seafood boil here. I got the shrimp, crab, potatoes, sausage, and corn in the boil. It was good! Also, my friend who never had a seafood boil liked it as well (and she has arfid). So, give it a shot!

Great food, awesome atmosphere and attentive & kind servers. Some of the food is served with a little bit of spice, Cajun seasoning, but if you're not sure about that, just ask them to keep it off and they will. Keenan, our server, did an amazing job. He knew the menu and the products and was always right there making sure we had everything we needed. This was our first time here, we will be back!
