50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Scottsdale

“We went to Eddie V’s Prime Seafood to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and as always, it was fantastic! This time, they really went above and beyond. When we sat down, the table was already decorated with birthday confetti, and there was a handwritten card signed by the staff — such a thoughtful surprise!

After our delicious dinner, they brought my boyfriend a beautiful dessert. Then the manager came by to check on us, which is typical at Eddie V’s, but he also gave us a $50 gift card for our next visit. In today’s economy, that’s an incredible gesture.

It’s these little touches that make experiences memorable and keep us coming back. Thank you, Eddie V’s — we’ll be back soon!. Just one suggestion, add to your menu bake potatoes“

“Our waiter was friendly and attentive. We were right next to the payment station so there was a lot of wait staff traffic, but that was just bad luck. We weren't impressed with the bread (although it smelled heavenly when it came out) or the deviled eggs. The eggs had a crispy small shrimp on top that was super good. But the yolk mix was pretty bland. Also had clam chowder that was good. The stand outs for us were the gratin potato side and the steaks. Be careful with the potatoes. The cheese is pretty much molten lava. Give them a good five minutes to cool down. My husband had the 12 oz NY strip and I had the 12 oz Australian NY strip. Both were cooked so perfectly. We'd go again but given the expense probably only for super special occasions.“

“When I arrived it was very busy and restaurant was seemingly full but they walked me right to a booth that was held for our group. Very professional. Service and food were excellent. I had tuna, others had lobster tail and fish plate. Excellent. The clam chowder and calamari all fantastic. . The orders were on time yet no hurry.Will return for certain.“

“Indulge in one of their amazing cocktails, choose the octopus for the first course, and enter dreamland from there. Last night was the latest A++ dinner where everything was done perfectly, and danced on our tastebuds like magic. A very special place, and there’s a reason why people are inspired to exclaim ‘best meal ever’. Life is short, go this week, Highly recommended.“

“The specials are always, well, special. The seafood is fresh and almost always perfectly prepared and the chefs are creative without being pretentious about it. My two minor complaints are that some of the menu staples - in particular the fish and chips - can be a little inconsistent (I get it, as it's not fun to make compared to some other items) and that the fried shrimp is only a sometimes offering. Would be awesome if that were a regular.“

“Impeccable on all fronts! Food, service, decor! Fabulous and very interesting as well as fun menu. The wine and cocktail menu is very extensive and diverse. My mojito was expertly crafted and absolutely exquisite!

The staff is first rate! Professional yet very friendly, welcoming and kind ! Thanks to Jarrot, Cole and Trey for such a delightful experience !

Now the food ! Wow! I chose the duck confit agnolotti pasta and it was just incredible ! A Very generous portion cooked perfectly al denté in a beautiful and silky cream sauce with delectable mushrooms.

Five stars! Today it was soul cafe for breakfast and pescada for dinner ! A great day to be repeated ! Xoxo“

“DOES NOT RECOMMEND Came for lunch & restaurant was empty. Eventually three additional parties came in after us but they all got their complete food orders before us. We reminded the clerk about our orders, but she kept making other people's food & did us last. We will NEVER come again. It took over 75 minutes to get our order. Save yourself the time. Go elsewhere.“

“Service is always fantastic ! Oysters are decent and oyster shooters ! Gumbo is not gumbo at all extremely thick like grits or mashed potato texture it you’re from the south do not order should probably be removed from menu but the etoufee is good and I like how you can control spice level !“

“Love my bday celebration at Red Lobster!!“

“Best clam chowder I’ve had in a really long time!“

“The good reviews that have been posted are correct. This is our first time we have ate dinner here. We were there for our wedding anniversary.
The waiter and staff are excellent. The food was excellent and plentiful. We took more than half our meal home and left stuffed.
For us this a great place for a special occasion.“

“We just love Angry Crab. My Boyfriend and I go there all the time.“

“Supposedly a high end steak house, the only thing high end are the prices and egos of their management team. Many better dining alternatives.“

“I just spent my first time going to Ocean 44 and I must say, this is one of the best restaurants I had ever been to. When I took my wife there they really took care of us. Any questions we had about the menu they made sure they walked us through the whole menu so knew how everything works. They took care of us just as good as being at a life loan Doctors office. I definitely recommend this place and especially to take your date to.“

“Amazing food, excellent service authentic French cuisine!!!!“

“This place is amazing. Very good food , very very friendly staff, good music and the right level. The lighting was even perfect. The late night Seen is the best seven to close. Very easy-going very chill Tuesday night. The food is very good. The staff is super polite and it’s tucked away off the beaten path. How good the food is mixed in with the atmosphere. Hands-down, one of the best hidden little gems in Scottsdale. I don’t write these that much. I’m not drunk either. ;) but very good food and very nice people with a solid atmosphere!“

“The steaks were perfectly cooked, au gratin potatoes delicious, always delicious creamed spinach. My cocktail was great (Paloma).All of The Capital Grill's we've dined at were good. This one is exceptional. Ask for a quiet corner. It is noisy.“

“Our first visit to Grassroots. The service was great - friendly, efficient. Two people tried the Vegetable Chop Salad - loved it. I had the Ahi Tuna Salad - delicious but could have had more tuna for $28. The Miso salmon and Blackened Redfish were also enjoy. We didn't sit on the patio as it was cold but it looked nice. Great find!“

“Simple yet amazing!!! Me and my family had a wonderful experience for lunch today. From the appetizers to the lunch meal, you couldn’t go wrong with anything you ordered! One of the best meals I’ve had since being here.“

“I windsurfed Maui for years. Honeymooned there. 16th birthday for my daughter. This place reminds me of Paia and Malawian. Such a friendly attitude. The food was awesome. It’s not like Mama’s fish house more quaint.“

“This is was one of the best dinners I have had in a long time! Everything from the location, service and food was on point. We went to celebrate the birthday of one of our friends and were very impressed with all this place had to offer. The cocktails were stiff and delicious. The appetizers were plentiful and the main course I had the attitude adjustment and the wife had the illicit affair. With dessert I had to get the expresso martini. I had the Wagyu Ribeye and it was spectacular. Paired with mashed potatoes my wife had the grilled salmon with potatoes gratin. So many good dishes the peeps we were with ordered it was hard to keep up. Cannot wait to go back and celebrate soon! - Javi (Yelp Elite / All Star)“

“Even without sampling the food on this latest visit, it’s clear why this place remains one of the area’s most consistently buzzing destinations. The energy alone tells the story—tables filled, glasses clinking, and a steady rhythm of conversation that signals a spot beloved by locals and visitors alike. The drinks program continues to impress. Wines are well-selected, offering both dependable varietals and intriguing pours for those who enjoy exploring beyond the usual. Cocktails are balanced and thoughtfully executed—nothing overwrought, just smartly made and enjoyable. Service matches the standard: efficient, friendly, and tuned in without hovering. The only recurring frustration lies in the seating—finding a comfortable spot, especially with a party larger than two, can feel like winning a small lottery. Still, once seated, it’s easy to see why so many linger well into the evening. Bottom Line: A go-to destination for happy hour and casual wine gatherings. Excellent drinks, a convivial crowd, and lively ambiance—just be prepared to wait a bit for that perfect table. Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) – Exceptional drinks and atmosphere; minor seating woes keep it from perfection.“

“In addition to having the best seafood in the entire state, they also have a very warm and friendly staff. We come every weekend and its worth every penny!“

“Love all the options here--so many fresh add-ins!“

“Located a mile from the Four Seasons Scottsdale, there aren’t a lot of good options around Troon. SWAN delivers excellent and fresh sushi. Owned by a Japanese couple, they maintain excellent standards and prices are more than fair.

Full bar and Sapporo on draft for $7.

Nice outdoor terrace with plenty of heaters.

Overall, excellent sushi restaurant with other options including miso black cod, noodles and chicken.“

“Beautiful place and amazing dishes and Cocktails are truly the best! 5 star ⭐️“

“I always make it a priority to find great Indian restaurants in the cities I visit and live in; Masala Indian Cuisine did not disappoint.

I ordered the chicken mughlai, vegetable samosas, and naan. All three dishes tasted amazing and were cooked perfectly. The service was also undeniably incredible.

This is now my go-to Indian restaurant in Scottsdale.“

“Had a truly excellent experience yesterday for brunch on the patio. It started with the hostess seating us which was very professional and courteous. Alexis was our server and she was amazing. Found out during the end of our meal that she had only been working there for two days. She was as knowledgeable and professional as she could be. She checked back numerous times to see if we needed anything. The brunch burger was amazing. So many flavors inside one bun! The Bloody Mary’s were spot on! We dont live here but if we did this would be a regular spot for brunch, business dinners or just a great date night! In todays world of lousy service and subpar service, this place is a shining star!!!!!“

“Had a great first date there!!! Great food, great atmosphere…one of my better calls!!!!“

“A Culinary Gem in Arizona! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Qwik Chinese just delivered the best Chinese food I've had in Arizona, hands down! My two brothers and I had an incredible meal, and every dish was absolutely amazing.

I dove into the Mongolian Beef, and it was perfectly tender with just the right amount of spice and savory flavor. My brothers raved about the General Tso's Chicken and the Kung Pao Chicken, both packed with authentic taste and cooked to perfection.

The freshness and quality of the ingredients really shone through. This isn't just good Chinese food; it's a truly outstanding dining experience. If you're in Arizona and craving top-tier Chinese, you have to try Qwik Chinese!“

“I was here for my birthday 8/25/24 with my girlfriend. It was an absolute delight! I had the grass fed ribeye, medium well, and it was probably the best steak I've ever had. That's saying a lot for a guy living and being from Chicago. The ambience was top notched and the customer service was great! I can't wait until I'm back in AZ, I will definitely return here. This is a 5 star restaurant. -Marcus“

“Wicked Seafood & Meats is an awesome place to get fresh fish and other meat. The friendly staff and quality of the products makes it worthwhile even if it's out of your way! One of the few places you can buy fresh Grouper. So glad we found this place!“

“Everything is incredible here! Jonathon was a wonderful host for the Garden Spritz Lunch Event, and Jason from Bacardi added unique info and insights into all the creative drink offerings. Please offer more of these, especially a bourbon offering in October!“

“I was born in Manhattan, NYC, grew up in the Red Hook Section of Brooklyn and did most of my growing up in Jackson Heights, Queens. I spent70 years either living in NYC, working in NYC or both and when I worked in NYC but didn't live there, I could walk to Queens from where I lived. Also, many of my closest friends growing up were first generation Chinese and I STILL talk to some of them. We'd go to Chinatown for dinner very often.\n\nSO, Jade Palace is an upscale fine dining restaurant. Service is polite and attentive and the food is DEFINITELY NYC style Chinese cuisine. If you're thinking "So what does NYC style Chinese cuisine mean. Isn't Chinese food Chinese food"? NO. Try order Chow Fun in Rome, Italy some time.\n\nI want to make this one of my regular haunts. I love duck and they couldn't have done a better job of preparing that dish for me. Four of you\n\nOH! People? They ask we come dressed business casual. That doesn't mean Tee Shirts, Shorts and Sneakers. Respect the restaurant.“

“Hands down our favorite restaurant in Scottsdale! BYOB is the added bonus however Atlas has an amazing selection of great wines for purchase. Chef Jabari is incredibly talented. His food is delectable and his presentations are absolutely beautiful. This intimate restaurant is a MUST try for foodies!l“

“I have celiac and we are traveling cross county right now and I’m trying as many dedicated gf spots as I can. This was a really special dinner. We ordered at least 8 items off the menu because everything looked so amazing. Everything was very top notch and, to me, somehow tased both familiar and something you couldn’t quite place, in a good way. We tried appetizers, main courses and a couple of desserts and I absolutely everything was amazing! Thanks for a great meal!“

“Mandarin Kitchen is a true hidden gem in Scottsdale. Lady at the counter is very sweet and great sense of humor — genuinely welcoming and happy to have you there. The food comes out hot, fresh, and full of flavor, clearly made to order and never rushed. What really stands out is the pricing: extremely fair for the quality and portion sizes, especially these days. If you’re looking for dependable, delicious Chinese food with great service, Mandarin Kitchen is absolutely worth a visit“

“On this day I celebrated my 73rd Birthday. The evening was perfect, and the waitress who handle my private booth made it happen. She was gracious, knowledgeable, and respectful in handling my disabled daughter. My wife and daughter had a wonderful experience. I waited two years and it was worthwhile the wait. Thank you for giving me my special night. June 16, 2022. Clarence E. Forster, Sr“

“Excellent sushi!! Awesome uni too“

“Great food and great rum drinks🤙 bartenders are stellar🌸“

“When we order takeout from Red House, they always go over it to make sure it's complete and specific requests are followed. Food is always delicious and fulfilling, and service is like best friends!“

“Great place to eat! Tottie rolls are something to try.“

“We spent our 47th Anniversary at the Scottsdale Mastro’s and had wonderful service, wonderful food, the best Vodka Martini ever! It is great place to spend ant time at, but especially Special Times! Thank you, Mastro’s for another outstanding experience!“

“Yes!! Awesome Happy Hour food and drinks!! Staff is great 👍“

“Always a wonderful experience! They have great French specialties. The drinks, cuisine, service and ambience is superb“

“Everything was perfect. I never make that statement in a review, until now. From service to food….it was a great experience.“

“The Krispy Crunchy Chicken is located inside the Shell Station and if you haven't tried it, you should because it's good stuff. I suggest their honey mustard sauce for dipping, good stuff too.I think they only serve Mon- Fri till 1 or 2pm and not serving Saturday and Sunday. I highly suggest giving it a try, definitely worth the price.“

“I come here quite often with my family. The food is always amazing and the portions are very fair.
Only reason I'm giving it only 4 stars is because the employees didn't seem happy to be there and while they were nothing bad they were more just...indifferent I would say is the best way to describe it. I recommend take out rather than eating in.
Just think there should of more energy around the place. I understand that someone times it's just a way to pay the bills but providing a happy atmosphere and service it's what keep people coming back the food too of course lo.“

“Great food, great service. Took the family out and had an enjoyable evening. i will be coming back with family and friends“
