So, here's how this works: Step 1 is to pick your seafood, where you’ll choose from clams, Snow Crab legs, King Crab legs, Dungeness Crab, mussels, crawfish, shrimp, lobster, and lobster tail.
Next up is to choose your sauce, where your options are lemon pepper, Cajun, garlic butter, or the House Special with all sauces combined.
