MR CAJUN is widely praised for seafood boils that are generous in portions, featuring fresh seafood and bold Cajun seasonings that many diners find tasty and good value. The dining experience is described as lively and welcoming, with fast seating and attentive service in many visits, though a few reviews note occasional lapses in service or slower moments. The small ocean and grand ocean options are highlighted as flavorful and substantial enough to share, with the sauces and seasoning repeatedly cited as a standout. The concept of enjoying seafood cooked to order at the table, along with the vibrant atmosphere and music, adds to the appeal. Repeated visits and strong recommendations suggest overall strong satisfaction despite the occasional hiccup, making it feel like a go-to seafood destination for fans of Cajun flavors.
The food is DELICIOUS!!! A must visit if you lose seafood & boils. The crab cakes were great, le petit ocean was more than enough for 2 people. & reasonably priced too!
I'm giving this place 3 stars because the seafood was outstanding, & I enjoyed the food. However, the service was disappointing-servers seemed unhappy, looked lost, & didn't smile. The atmosphere was okay.
I look forward to trying other seafood spots!

Amazing experience !!! After being disappointed with Seau du Crab, we wanted to try another seafood boil restaurant.
This was hands down the most amazing dinner/seafood boil I had… we were even debating on visiting the next day for lunch 🙈it was THAT good !!!
Must visit whenever you're in the MTL area
We had a great dining experience here! The seafood was delicious & fresh.
Special thanks to our server Lamia, she was very kind, attentive, & professional.
Highly recommended!
Came to Mr Cajun a couple of months ago, & have been itching to return since.
The food was amazing & the service was great. There was not any music playing, so the atmosphere wasn't the greatest but it was a good time nonetheless.
As a seafood lover, this place was awesome. The flavoring does get repetitive if you're only doing the seafood boil but that doesnt change the fact that it tastes great.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Mr Cajun & was absolutely blown away by the quality & flavor of their seafood. From the moment I arrived, the aroma of perfectly seasoned Cajun spices filled the air, setting the stage for an unforgettable meal. I ordered both the shrimp & mussels, & each bite was a celebration of fresh, succulent seafood cooked to perfection. The shrimp were plump & juicy, with just the right amount of heat & seasoning, while the mussels were tender & brimming with a rich, garlicky broth that had me savoring every last drop.
What truly elevated the experience was the exceptional service provided by Oumaima. She greeted me with a warm smile, took the time to explain the menu's specialties, & made thoughtful recommendations based on my taste preferences. Throughout the meal, Oumaima checked in regularly, ensuring my water glass was never empty & that I was fully enjoying each dish. Her genuine enthusiasm for the cuisine & attentive, friendly demeanor made me feel like a valued guest rather than just another customer.
Overall, Mr Cajun's seafood offerings-especially the shrimp & mussels-were top-notch, & Oumaima's outstanding service made the evening even more memorable. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone craving authentic, flavorful Cajun seafood, & I'll definitely be returning soon. Kudos to the entire team at Mr Cajun, & a special shoutout to Oumaima for making my visit exceptional!
After trying seau de crabe twice & being beyond disappointed I was ready to feel the same about this seafood boil. Happy to say it was the exact opposite. Mr. Cajun's boil was spiced & cooked to perfection. Everything was very fresh & the portions were generous. The garlic butter dressing added some extra flavour. The service was fast & lovely. I will definitely be back!
Very cool experience, payed about 100$ tax included for 2 people for the seafood mix, very big portions for 2, a bit too salty for my liking but still, it was very well worth it. The ambiance is nice & the service too. Will come back!
I love seafood, & we have similar franchises in Ontario where I dine regularly. While traveling to Montréal, I was eager to see how the seafood here would compare! The restaurant is a bit small but nicely furnished & well-decorated. It was freezing outside, but they had the heater on, keeping it comfortably warm inside. The food was decent - I'd rate it a 7/10. My main critique is that the sauce was predominantly salty, with other flavors not standing out as much as I'd hoped. The service was great, & I appreciated the thoughtful touches like providing gloves & an apron.
