44 Best Seafood Restaurants in Birmingham

“Every time I come home I want to come both here and Bright Star. The food is great as well as the service and the Sarris family has earned every dime they make! My favorite is seasonal, the bbq shrimp and grits and the whole flounder is amazing.“

“Went to Amore tonight for our anniversary dinner. Our waiter, Robert, was outstanding explaining the specials of the day and suggesting a great wine which really complimented our dinner of shrimp and lobster linguine which was cooked to perfection. Our dessert of crème brûlée was spectacular! The best meal we have had in a while and I highly recommend Amore for a truly enjoyable experience.“

“We went to Magnolia Point for the first time last night and are so glad we did. The food was delicious, service fast and attentive and the prices very reasonable. It’s a great place to take kids because it’s got lots of food they would like (fish tocos, hamburgers, etc) and not too fancy. There’s also a great outdoor patio that we cant wait to try. We’ll be back for sure!“

“A friend brought me to dinner here tonight. I relocated to Birmingham a few years ago and had been meaning to dine with you so when my friend asked where I said ‘The Fish Market.’ Well, not only was the food fantastic but your staff was incredible. Our server was a lady named Precious. I have never felt such hospitality from a server. It is hard to describe but she made me feel as though she was eager to help yet didn’t want us feel rushed. It was a genuinely wonderful dining experience and I’m not one to yammer on with recommendations. 😂 Additionally, the bartender (my apologies but I didn’t get her name) delivered my drink to ensure it did not get watered down. That level of service is practically unmatched. Please know you have two wonderful team members in Precious and the bartender. Well done!“

“Food was very delicious! My husband and I ordered the bacon and chicken quesadilla, Philly quesadilla and 10 piece train wreck wings! Customer service was great! They really did their thing! Great environment! Prices are great! Food was hot and fresh! Don’t walk, RUN to try them out🫶🏾“

“Excellent food and service 😊“

“Love this place. The food is absolutely amazing! they've got a beautiful waitress as well, she's always really kind and really sweet and really outgoing, very personable. she's very knowledgeable of the menu, always has a smile on her face and always makes you feel like your family when you come in. the prices are really great as well. there's nowhere else you can go to get an entree for $15.99, that's about average at location. you can't go to McDonald's for that. great food, great fun, great times, and I look forward each time that I go. I just got back today actually, I went to dinner there tonight. love it!“

“Some of the best chicken in Center Point AL!!! Always cooked to perfection, just the right amount of lemon pepper, fried hard! ? Must try if you are in the Center Point area. Never had any issue with customer service, quick getting the orders out.“

“Excellent service & food. We will be back. The restaurant was cozy and clean and quite Italian interior. Would be good for a date night. The server allowed my Mom & I to split an entree. The sides were a la carte with pasta dishes. They have plenty of salads but I would suggest they add something like green beans to the menu...a green vegetable besides salad. The bread was soft and tasty. I would suggest spaghetti noodles vs rigatoni/penne for the chicken parm but chicken was great.“

“Flew in from Houston and so glad I stopped here. Had the fried green tomato BLT with a cold PBR draft and it was amazing! If you’re in Birmingham you gotta give this place a try, 100 out of 100 ⭐️’s!!“

“This is one of the hidden gems in town! Always fantastic food and I eat here at least twice a week. The service is outstanding and always friendly. Sue the hostess that works the door is amazing. She remembered my name by the second visit and always greets me with a smile?. The entire staff is unbelievable and you feel like you are eating lunch with best friends. Highly recommend!!!“

“Fresh delicious food and friendly service. The place is gorgeous.“

“I've been going to the cajun steamer in hoover for years. Great to finally try this one, it did not disappoint. Great food, fun staff, and a great atmosphere for being outside a mall instead of the French quarter, but as close as you can get for Birmingham, AL. Thanks again and I'll be back!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ First Visit – Absolutely Incredible! The atmosphere was cozy and elegant, and the staff made us feel right at home from the start. But the highlight of the night? The food—hands down some of the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. Every bite was full of rich, authentic flavor, and you can tell the ingredients are top-quality. From the appetizers to the desserts, everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. This place is a true gem and we’re already planning our next visit. If you haven’t been yet you’re missing out!“

“Always great customer service. The food is amazing and I love coming here at least one time per week to satisfy my cravings. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for good food and a peaceful atmosphere with good customer service any day of the week.“

“My recent visit to Good Friends Chinese & Seafood was a delightful journey into Chinese cuisine. The restaurant's inviting atmosphere set the stage for a satisfying meal. I ordered fried rice, egg rolls, and shrimp, and each dish was a delight. The fried rice was flavorful and perfectly cooked, the egg rolls were crispy and packed with savory fillings, and the shrimp was a succulent and flavorful treat. Good Friends Chinese & Seafood's dedication to authentic Chinese flavors and high-quality ingredients was evident in every dish. The friendly service and the welcoming ambiance added to the overall enjoyable experience. Whether you're a fan of fried rice, egg rolls, shrimp, or simply seeking a taste of China, Good Friends is a must-visit. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to savor more of their delicious offerings!“

“So I visited Carters Hooka bar & Grill for the first time. I had seen so many good reviews on another site so I decided to give it a try. To say I was underwhelmed wouldn't suffice. The atmosphere was nice, chill little vibe. Good music, good vibes, bad food & Drinks were disgusting. We ordered shrimp & grits, steak & shrimp, 2 blue MF (drinks) & Cajun ranch cheese fries. The grits were under cooked, no seasoning, and tasted like water. We added salt and that didn't help at all. The sausage was burnt and it was a little too done. The shrimp was seasoned but it didn't balance the grits. The steak and shrimp tasted like each other. They didn't have a distinct flavor, it's like they cooked it together. The steak was waaayyy overcooked and the heat wasn't hot enough because the steak didn't have a char on the outside. It was spicy along with the shrimp. It did come with 2 potatoes covered in cheese and a side salad that was mostly tomatoes & cucumbers minimal lettuce. The drinks were not good but not bad. Too much alcohol, the end that's all. I would come back but definitely not for the food.“

“Food was delicious and Brandi was fabulous!“

“Super clean establishment! Fast friendly service and love the specials! 😍 Always something new here to catch my eye.“

“They have some of the best food in town. Their fish is simply delicious. You can get family-sized servings for very economical prices. Need a quick DIY self-catering option? Call these folks!

Also, some of the freshest salad you've tried. Hands-down.

I bought a family-pack of fish for guests that I did not know were coming over. I needed a quick solution. The guests loved the food so much, one of them called me weeks later wanting info on the restaurant because she started craving the food.

Then another person who wasn't at my house that day called asking about it too because the guest was talking about their fish being so good😂 You have to try this restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Fresh seafood and wonderful staff“

“The manager, Art , noticed that I seemed to be chilly and was hugging myself . I was seated under an air-conditioning vent and he came over and told me he had adjusted the thermostat and offered me a shawl which turned out to be soft, black and lovely and made all the difference so that my meal was quite enjoyable. I've never had such personal attention and I loved it!“

“Awesome service and even better food. Can't go wrong booking Simone's Kitchen. We hired them at my property for an event and will definitely hire them again!!“

“I was scared to stop by this restaurant because of the reviews I have read on here but I walked in spoke to the Asian lady and she spoke back .I came back the next week and the same lady took my order .I speak put in my order and wait while it's cooked fresh .The two young African American ladies I encounter has been nice and polite . I'm not sure if they read your reviews and changed but I haven't had not one problem and the food has bern hot and Delicious. I Pray it stays this way“

“My first visit at this location and LW wont b last. Unbeknownst to me, kind young man/Ervin opened tle door for me (on a cane etc )then took my food to car. So polite and when I got home I PIGGED OUT! 😋 food was sooooo good and just rite for my palette“

“I haven't been here in awhile so I decided too stop by. I usually go too a different state for seafood,but decided too rep my city for the deliciousness. Everything was still good too me and I can tell who ever in that kitchen wasn't stingy with the sauce.“

“Good food nice and friendly staff“

“The only place we order crawfish from! They are the biggest and the staff is always friendly and delivery for us out of state is always prompt.“

“Good food and service In they nice and clean“

“Just know that you have to be ready to start ordering before you even get to the steam table. They will point at you and ask what meat you want. Be prepared to decide quickly as you go down the line. DO NOT BE ON YOUR PHONE! I know this sounds harsh but this is how they are able get a lot of people fed. They have a large selection and everything is delicious.“

“My husband and I went here for the first time tonight and had a wonderful time! The food was absolutely delicious and hot. Very flavorful and excellently priced. Our server was also very accommodating! We will be telling all our friends about this place and we will definitely be back!“

“This was my first time there I am a senior citizen the food was delicious better than I expected the crowd was good the music was a bit loud if you don't want to hear loud music and a crowd that's excited about talking to each other and enjoying each other's company and go to a different facility this one's not for you. I felt safe I enjoyed myself and I will be back you got little kids maybe don't bring them“

“Best pork-chop EVER!! And our server Mary Kay gave us top notch service! She was truly Amazing!“

“We celebrated our friend, Tara's birthday, and it was absolutely perfect! The staff was friendly and inviting (and hyped the birthday girl up), the DJ was on point, the drinks were superb, and there are no words for the food! We could hardly get out the door because the music kept pulling us back in! This place is all it's hyped up to be, and we can't wait to go back!“

“Awesome place to be, my first time there and it won't be my last. I had an awesome experience for it being my first time, good people, awesome bartender, very friendly people. Thanks for a great time and good conversation, I will return.“

“Dinner was absolutely amazing! Service was stellar. The Fleming's staff made tonight memorable from the moment O entered the building until my exit.“

“Went to 2 different locations before visiting Prive/Palace. You get entry to the restaurant for free and the club in back for $10. Security will check you before entering and parking spaces were nice.

The bartender was very nice and the people eating were also very nice. We ate wings, fries, catfish nuggets and had some drinks in between visits to the back club“
