50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Castro Valley

“I enjoyed my Hawaiian BBQ. Customer was Great! The Restaurant very clean including the Restroom! I've been here at least 4 to 3 times a month! Enjoyed it!!!!“

“This is a massive restaurant with a sea of tables and some private party rooms. It sometimes feels more like a giant ballroom than a restaurant. They also have a bakery next door. The food and the service are very good!
Overall, we had a very good experience.“

“Will be back! Great food 😋😋😋“

“Excellent food all seasoned and cooked to perfection. Black cod, cioppino, ribeye, crab cakes, and scallop risotto is what the table had. Excellent wine selection, great desserts and drinks. Minus one star because the cushions on the chairs at our table were too soft and sunk you too far below the table for good comfort.“

“Me encantó si lo recomiendo 👍🏻“

“I have to say this experience exceeded expectations from start to finish.

A dear friend insisted I try the pineapple coconut cakes, ordering four and telling me “you will see.” That level of confidence immediately raised my curiosity and it absolutely delivered.

From the moment I walked in, the staff set the tone. They were kind, informative, patient, and genuinely welcoming. That level of service matters, and they got it right.

I initially ordered four plates and appreciated the menu variety, especially seeing whole chicken wings offered. But the real moment came when I sampled the shrimp in my car. It was outstanding. Perfectly seasoned, flavorful, and memorable.

I turned right back around and ordered an additional plate with catfish and shrimp, and that sealed it for me. The shrimp are 🔥🔥🔥!

This is the kind of place that earns repeat visits. The food is bold, the service is warm, and the overall experience leaves a lasting impression. I will absolutely be back.“

“Oakland used to have a lot of these fried-fish takeout places, owned and operated by and for members of the Black community. This place, now run by a Chinese family, continues to serve good, hot fried fish, coleslaw, French fries - and fried rice!“

“Just went on Wednesday as I was passing through. I didn’t realize that they were open do to the farmers market being right there as well. Went inside and it was beautiful. The staff was friendly and attentive. I ordered the shrimp po boy and it was very good. I will definitely be back.“

“Yummy yummy yummy! Really our "go to" place for Mexican food in the neighborhood. Even make a point to go there when it's out-of-the-way! Try it - you'll love the food!!!“

“first time here - we loved it! excellent wine list“

“La carne en cebollada los camarones en crema de chipotle“

“10/10 highly recommend! Fresh, tasty, quality ingredients prepared and plated to perfection! Portion sizes are worth the price. Affordable, tasty eats with excellent customer service in a lovely outdoor setting. My son and I had the fish tacos and shared a steak & shrimp birria taco. OMG! INCREDIBLY DELICIOUS AND FLAVORFUL, down to the sliced carrots! I was visiting from the East Coast where they know NOTHING about authentic Mexican food! I could eat at La Grana Fish EVERY DAY!“

“Great first time experience“

“Pleasant & courteous greeting, Neat & clean tables, Quick table service & ordering, Good food, served hot“

“First time here after reading the rave reviews. I ordered the lunch special to go - it didn't feel like I saved any money but the meal was great. It's available on weekdays only from 12pm to 2pm. They have their own little parking lot and entrance is inside once you turn in from the main street.

Cajun Shrimp Rice Plate Lunch Special ($13.95 + $3.00 for fried rice) - Very well balanced meal! The egg roll and fried was a big plus. They are generous with their shrimp and the sauce is delicious. Would go back to try everything else.“

“I LOVE PIES & was HAPPY to find out out about this place! I tried 4 of them: Beef Pot Roast, Chicken Artichoke Pesto, German Beef & Mushroom, & All American Chicken. Thumbs Up to the Perfect Crust & Flavorful stew Fillings. Look fwd to trying many more 😋👍❤“

“Excellent shrimp fajita, guacamoli, would definately order again.
Lots of seafood option, will go back to try.
Hubby had barbeque ribs which he thought were heated up, but tasty. Rice, beans, tortilla good. He would try something seafood next time (who orders BBQ at a seafood specialty restaurant?!?)“

“Good food nice service nothing but the best“

“First of all the people that were in there getting food talked to me about how great it is before I could even order. I was excited. I ordered a Super Burrito with ground beef and everything. I also ordered a taco. When I saw how many ingredients were piled up on that taco and saw how the only way he could close that taco was to envelope it in aluminum foil I was amazed. But then when I picked up my bag containing one burrito and one taco I swear it was a couple of pounds! The burrito was huge! And delicious! And the person taking my order and the person making the orders were very pleasant. I will definitely be back many times.“

“Great food! I ordered the garlic shrimp, the plate had no room. They are generous with the amount of serving, fresh tortillas and Jamaican was not too sweet and taste very natural. Please support this local business the service is quick and attentive.“

“A great place for a crab/seafood boil with a paper tabletop, plastic bibs, and plastic gloves included. The seafood came in big plastic bags swimming in a steamy mix of sauce and spices. They were placed on the table and we all just dug in to our heart's content.

Note that there are other items on the menu including things like fried shrimp and french fries and other fried seafood.

The restaurant itself is no-frills with simple tables and chairs in the main room. You go for the food not to be seen.

If you like seafood boils it's a fun experience with the great seafood.“

“If you’re craving real Peruvian flavor, this place absolutely delivers 🇵🇪🔥 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The ceviche was espectacular—fresh, perfectly balanced, and full of that authentic citrus kick that takes you straight to the coast of Peru. The pollo al horno was juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right, and the ají de gallina… wow. Creamy, rich, and packed with tradition—pure comfort food at its finest. I’ve tried Peruvian restaurants all over San Jose, Sunnyvale, and Redwood City, and honestly… this is the best I’ve had in the area. The quality, the flavor, the authenticity—it all stands out. Highly recommend if you’re looking for truly authentic Peruvian cuisine. I’ll definitely be coming back 🙌“

“Muy rica y buena comida! Sabor y porciones muy buenas! El personal muy agradable y muy serviciales. El lugar bueno y limpio aunque escondido pues está en una zona de oficinas. Pero en general 💯 por 💯 recomendado 👍“

“they were busy think they get a couple more waitresses or Waiters cuz we didn't have to wait for a little bit“

“(Translated by Google) Very good place to eat well the dishes that I have tried are tasty and have a very good variety. They have a lot of food, not just seafood. For example, today I ate a delicious menudo.The prices are good, they are not expensive and the staff is very friendly.(Original)Muy buen lugar para comer bien los platillos que he probado están sabrosos y tienen muy buena variedad. Tienen de mucha comida no solo mariscos. Por ejemplo hoy me comí un rico menudo.Los precios están bien no son caros y el personal es muy amable.“

“Great food on a great Sunday!“

“Good food, prompt take out service, friendly staff on phone.“

“I had Christmas Eve Dinner with a few friends. I ordered the spare ribs, which were excellent. I also loved the mashed potatoes and veggies. Please know that they are not traditional spare ribs. It seemed more like a big hunk of pot roast, but the seasonings were quite good. The service was very good overall. I would highly recommend.🩷“

“The Korean fried chicken was delicious. The staff was a big help. They helped me pick out a good bottle of cold sake.“

“Got a regular Red Snapper with fries, I didn't have to ask for any condiments they had it all in the bag, Plus a Ground beef burrito because im greedy an I don't go there much, it seems like it has endless Snapper, fried an seasoned to perfection, its hard to get Snapper around, ate the burrito the next day, an it was still bussing, Whenever im in town it my first Stop fo sho, food came out in less than 15min.“

“Dropped in for some pho and really enjoyed the meal. The service was really great and friendly. Pho- quite delicious. I liked the quality of the goods, the mint and thai basil leaves were very impressive, so fresh and HUGE and tasted great. This place also served their bowls with limes which is funny because I've seen it becoming rarer, where lemons are being substituted and I'm the former so I appreciated that. The cuts of meat were these nice long strips, high quality.

I also got a banh xeo and that things was awesome. Whoever cooked it did so perfectly... nice crunch on the rim, juicy interior. The batter has coconut milk, so each bite is so flavorful. This was my favorite dish. Again, high quality meats and veggies, and huge! Good stuff. Also their coffee has a great condescended milk to coffee ratio, super sweet and rich yum“

“Regulars there love their chicken nuggets with jalapeño and egg fu young“

“We need a freaking salad bar in Alameda! We used to have 2 sizzlers on the island! Food is great & price!“

“I dont like to give small businesses a hard time, the food was amazing the only issue i have is the consistency of their hot and hour soup, ITS EXTREMELY THICK, I've been to house of dumplings and hong Kong city restaurant in the area, this is thr first time encountering soup being served like this. I hope I can either get a refund on the item or an exchange. None the less everything else was great, just wish I didn't pay 11 bucks for this item“

“Fresh food.You will enjoy it!“

“At the time of making my reservation didn't show a special Valentines menu. Good selection of food. Was very loud due to small area and cramped tables. I feel that prices were overrated because of Valentines day. I will good to try it again for a date night.“

“Before you come here, make sure to call in first to get a reservation a few hours in advance. Despite that requirement, reservations are usually not hard to snag, and the place is not packed. Calm and clean atmosphere.

Food is plenty good, and doesn't take forever to come out: the portions are not massive and the food is fresh and well-made. Most of the drinks are alcahol, but they do have good sparkling water.

Hostess (Or more like manager?) was very kind over the phone as I called like 3X to reschedule.“

“They have good food here and they still open“

“Amazing food!!!! Waitstaff were friendly and helped me decide what to order. Not my first time there, definitely not my last!!!“

“Outstanding customer service. Black Owned and Operated...“

“I ordered delivery of roasted duck, mixed vegetables with fish and black bean sauce, with Hot & Sour Soup. The order was delivered in a timely manner and the food was fresh and impressively packaged for delivery. Harry took my order and was extremely pleasant over the phone, he was patient with me and offered good recommendations. The delivery guy was friendly and courteous. I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner and look forward to dining in the next time I’m in the area.“

We ordered their vegetable dumplings, a veggie lo mein dish and their rice soup which when combined with the plant was AMAZING!“
