If you had to pick one thing that Nutmeg State cuisine is most famous for, you’d probably choose seafood. Seafood in Connecticut is a delicacy – we’ve got the freshest and best seafood in the entire country, if you ask us. And what better way to enjoy seafood than at a seafood boil restaurant? We’ve got just that at Cajun Boiled Seafood in New Haven. This build-your-own seafood boil spot lets you create your own meals to enjoy, all made with fresh seafood spiced up Louisiana-style.

Cajun Boiled Seafood is located in downtown New Haven, just a few blocks from Long Island Sound. The seafood is fresh and the build-your-own boil concept is somewhat uncommon in this area, making this a unique (and delicious) spot to grab a bite.
