Cajun Seafood Boil, Grilled Plates, and Southern Food for the Family.

A big, loud family that loves to eat

On The Hook started with siblings, home recipes, and a simple belief: food is better when you share it. We brought that spirit from our kitchen to Brea, and we've been feeding neighbors ever since.

Our story

The Main Event

Pick your catch, choose your sauce — Cajun, garlic butter, lemon pepper, or the all-in "All Hooked Up" blend — then set your spice. This is what we're known for.

Something for everyone

Get your crew hooked

We do catering. Same bold flavors, same family-sized portions — just at your place instead of ours.

Plan your catering

Worth the drive from anywhere to have this. Seafood is expensive everywhere but On The Hook justifies the price. You come here for the Main Event, you light your taste buds on fire with passion and garlic and spice and you get your hands insanely dirty, fixed by the tasteful limey bubble soap at the end. The beignets are a must and you should get them with the vanilla ice cream. Paul was our server this time and was so attentive and the kitchen was fast. Hands down the best seafood restaurant,…

The food was delicious. We had a variety of things. I enjoyed the most the Brussels Caesar salad with Cajun shrimp and the lemon pepper wings. We had margaritas that were wine- based and surprisingly 🔥. Husband and friends at the table had the seafood boil, gumbo, shrimp tacos and beignets. We loved everything. We were the last to leave that night. Service was great and the atmosphere was cool. It's a small little restaurant. Worth the ride out to Brea.

Second time coming in and got the garlic parmesan fries and garlic noodles with sausage. Those two are the must have here, don't come in without getting that. Ended with beignet and fried banana. Get the ice cream with dessert, they pair nicely. Edit: service is always great here! The staff is always hard working and kind.

This restaurant has became one of my boy’s favorites. The food is always amazing—like the buttery shrimp pasta, fish tacos, fresh pineapple smoothies, and dessert…it really feels like a mini vacation. We especially love their dry ice cleaning experience, which totally wowed my kid. The servers drop dry ice into a bottle of water, creating lots of bubbly steam that can be used to clean hands and even get rid of odors. Such a clever idea! My son absolutely loved it.
