50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Duarte

“Food was delicious!!! We had our two great granddaughters with us, they treated them so nicely, gave them extra tofu and attention!!! We will be visiting again soon!!“

“This place is super clean! Not that feeling of greasy oil over coating the entire restaurant. The tables were very very clean! And hand sanitizer everywhere!

We've been here many times over past two years most excellent service!

We ordered

MSG warning. I did not feel it then but about half hour after I started to get an MSG headache. I do have sensitivity—I should have asked but forgot bc many places I have eaten recently do not use.

Chef special Walnut chicken. Superb 5/5
The batter coating was light. No oily greasy feeling or oil absorbed into batter. The honey mayo dressing was also perfect light

Mongolian beef. My husband gave it 4, me 3 stars. Because it was not really Mongolian beef. The correct name would be black pepper beef. It did not taste like Mongolian beef

Kung pao chicken 3 stars was not as good. It was passable. The chicken seemed like it was lightly coated in cornstarch then fried. But it was fried a bit too long bc chi he was very dry. Also the sauce was not great. Tasted also a bit in the burnt side. I like smoky but burnt not great. See pic. I like tre chicken more lightly cooked so it’s still a bit soft and juicy. Sauce also too burnt

We had ordered sesame chicken on a bed orange slices do taste s little like orange chicken. Delicious 4.5/5 stars

Rice better this time (our 4th)“

“what i like about Cabreras 1st the awesome service. 2nd the best mexican food that is made with love. and what makes so good is the great music they have it's like eating at home which makes feel like your with family. keep up the great family feeling. oh and when I asked for something that's not on the menu you make it just like eating at home..“

“Great food and new location!“

“Nam and his family are incredibly hospitable. The food here is extremely fresh and delicious. We chatted after our meal and we had a wonderful exchange about his life and his business partner.
If you’re in the area do stop by! He gets his seafood fresh multiple times a week and uses a fusion of Cajun and Vietnamese flavors for the food.“

“Pretty nice Sichuan restaurant at the mall. The food definitely stacks up to the competition. The sauerkraut fish was a must order and the fish tasted very fresh, the sauerkraut was crunchy and the soup was perfect. You also get to choose your sides for the sauerkraut fish and we opted for potato noodles, which turned out great as it soaked up the juices. The Chongqing chicken was good fried crunchiness. It could have been spicier, but was a good dish to complement the rice. Our little one opted for the tomato noodles with chicken wings and it tasted pretty good for a kid’s meal, not like something pre-made. The appetizer platter was just okay. While the wings were yummy, the fries were kind of weak and the third item was some sort of fried pork which was bland and soggy. Probably the coolest part of the experience was they had a convertible high chair for the booth seats which made it super convenient to seat the little one on the inside of the booth. The service was okay, as it seemed like there were too many service staff standing around in one area and they often looked confused as who to attend to. Overall our meal was yummy and we’d return.“

“La comida está riquísima mis respetos para todos Siempre que vamos nos ha tiende “Jorge “ bien atento con lo que necesitas Los tacos de pulpo 🐙 los mejores #1“

“Located in a vibrant neighborhood, Oyster Dive Bar offers a delightful dining experience with a unique twist on seafood classics. The crispy Cajun fries with cheese are a standout appetizer, perfectly seasoned and crunchy, making them an irresistible starter. The lobster pasta features fresh lobster, expertly prepared and bursting with flavor, showcasing the restaurant's commitment to quality ingredients. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, ideal for both casual outings and intimate dinners. The service is attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyable atmosphere. Prices are reasonable given the quality and portion sizes. However, it's worth noting that the restroom could use more attention; cleanliness was a bit lacking during my visit. Despite this minor drawback, the delicious food and pleasant surroundings make Oyster Dive Bar a recommended choice for seafood enthusiasts looking to enjoy a satisfying meal in a relaxed setting. Overall, Oyster Dive Bar earns four stars for its tasty dishes, friendly service, and comfortable ambiance. With a few improvements in cleanliness, it could easily become a five-star dining destination.“

“Honestly, it’s so many things to say about this restaurant like the service is fast. It’s great Phillip ! a friend of mine who’s been working there for years is an amazing person. He’s great he’s reliable. The restaurant is not too big but they do offer indoor and outdoor seating if available I love sitting outside because there’s nothing better than just being in the sun eating your seafood but it’s also comfortable. They don’t forget about you. They’re constantly checking on you. I’m so obsessed with King Crawfish !. My sister and I come probably two or three times a month my best friend and I were actually their first post on Instagram and I love this is establishment.“

“Good food and great service good for family“

“😁Since I was a little girl we have been patroning The Shrimp House when it was in El Monte and now here and the Jumbo Shrimp have always been our favorite. It was my mom's favorite food so now it is a great reminder of our wonderful family times and the food and all the sides continue to be delicious!! Thank you!“

“The food was excellent. The food far surpasses the service. Let's begin with the Buffalo shrimp, which were perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. An excellent take on wings seafood style. The seafood caldon especal was full of flavor, perfectly spices even though it has jalapeño in it bring back a sense of being on the beach. The Capechana was high quality and the delicious. The chef not only an excellent cook but took part of the service. The Michelada base alone is memorable and wanted to buy a gallon of it. The waitress was professional but needs to elevate her service skills, one attention to the client was very slow, there was no effort to explain the menu, little initiative to attend out table.“

“The breaded Shrimp with rice, beans and the brown sauce! Just like the good ole’ days!“

“Buena comida buen servicio“

“Best Dim Sum!!!! My children and I have been coming here for years, and we absolutely love this restaurant. The staff is so attentive and kind and the food is absolutely delicious 😋 We've love trying new places, but when it comes to Dim Sum, no one beats Capital Seafood. Thank you, Mia, and the entire wonderful staff, you all make every visit a treat & we always leaving absolutely full and lazy, lol. Thank you! 💝“

“My free shrimp skewer was honored because I put the app on but my senior discount and or promo (gameday2025) 30% off total bill wasn't honored. The food was delicious. Chris was helpful with our order on the kiosk. My family visited from Conneticut and I was hoping the promo was honored.“

“Food and prices always great. Have tried many dishes including: birria de res, burritos, breakfasts, chilaquiles, sopes, tacos dorados, bean and cheese burrito, their French fries are a fam fave! The ladies there are always great and the coffee is delicious!“

“New spot, had to check it out. The ratings didn’t lie. Think seafood boil vibes with lots of different options. Bonus: a complimentary appetizer bar loaded with choices.

They’ve also got solid traditional Chinese dishes, perfect if seafood’s not your thing. Only downside, no liquor license yet… but we’ll be back anyway.“

“One of the best garlic fish in LA County, Orange, Riverside, etc…. Delicious flavor and great size. Accompanied by salad and French fries; There is an option of beans and rice too. The place is very clean and tidy. The menu options are spectacular and I will surely return to try more. The service is very good too. The music was very loud and I asked if they could lower the volume and they very kindly did so. I was able to eat in peace. Thank you.“

“The food here is amazing. Best salsa in town and the ceviche is fresh.“

“La vdd todo RIQUISIMOOO el sarandeado las empanadas de camarón �� ��� delicioso y el agua de cirula OMG ricaaaa !!�� .... me quite el antojo de empanadas que traía ���. Muchas gracias por su atención ��“

“Used love this place and would come here often. Their fish 🐟 tacos 🌮 are delicious 😋 but it seems they have changed a bit.
The quality was definitely better before, maybe a different cook? Not sure. They're still good but not as they used to be. Service is always good, the staff are friendly and attentive. I've had their campechana and it's so good! Definitely recommended as well as their tostadas de camarón and pescado“

“Delicious sea food and micheladas at a great price!“

“good food live music friendly waitress good beer and 🍷“

“The food,drinks, and service was great.“

“It's great. The food is good. But you have to wait outside until your number is called and outside the place is littered with cigarettes in the waiting area. Please clean it up and put a no smoking sign. No one wants second hand smoke.“

“Esta muy sabrosa comida me encanto se las recomiendo k ballan y prueven esta deliciosa comida“

“Been coming here for years. Their tostada servings are always generous. Their rice and beans are great. Tostada mixta is my go to but I also was craving the mojarra as you can see. Everything tasted great. Small place, and the decor is very dated. But the food makes up for it. Good for to-go orders too.“

“It's a cute family restaurant. Great tentative service. I recommend for 2 people or plus since the dishes tends to be a bit bigger for family to share .

Also, they do have a private room to have a good time with the family or friends privately“

“friendly staff good food reasonable prices 👌“

“A classic Cantonese restaurant in LA that’s perfect for Lunar New Year gatherings

Honestly, the Lunar New Year vibe in Los Angeles isn’t always about lanterns or decorations —
sometimes it’s found in an old, reliable restaurant where the whole family can eat comfortably and happily 🥢

Before the Lunar New Year, I took my family to this Cantonese restaurant in Alhambra.
The environment was very comfortable, with spacious table spacing. You hear Cantonese all around, which feels truly authentic. The service was steady and reliable, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Their dishes aren’t flashy, but they’re the kind you can keep eating without getting tired of 👇
🍃 Lotus leaf–steamed frog: light and delicate, very tender, and easy to enjoy bite after bite
🧄 Typhoon shelter–style clams: perfectly garlicky, served hot and quickly cleaned off the plate
🦑 Salt-and-pepper fresh squid: crispy outside with a nice chew inside, cooked just right
🥬 Stir-fried pea shoots: clean and refreshing — a must on any shared table
🍜 Dry-fried beef chow fun: not greasy, noodles intact, beef tender — classic Cantonese fundamentals done well

A really heartwarming touch was the complimentary soy milk & black sesame tangyuan 🍡 after the meal.
Warm, lightly sweet, and not cloying — the perfect ending.

If you’re looking for a Lunar New Year spot where:
✔️ elders feel comfortable with the food
✔️ the family can chat without too much noise
✔️ the dishes are consistent and reliable

This place is a great choice.
Sometimes, the feeling of the New Year is simply sitting around the same table and enjoying a good meal together 🤍“

“Super delicious amazing food and service is great“

“This is a huge establishment, with a very extensive menu. It almost feels like you are at a grand event, while you're sitting amongst hundreds of tables being served dim sum in carts.

The service here was very good, they were quick and attentive. I also liked the fact that they asked other team members for help if they were not sure of something instead of blowing you off like they didn't understand what you wanted.

The lunch hour here was packed, which is always a great sign. Looking forward to more visits to this restaurant.“

“The food is delicious and the waitress are so kind they offer a very good service“

“This place is amazing. I go often and everything on their menu is delicious. Their service is always on point, it's like joining family.“

“Food was good. There was a little wait but the server (Derek) was alone. He was very kind and attentive. They were out of garlic noodles but It is a Tuesday after a holiday weekend. We were visiting from up north. Will definitely come back if we we're ever in the area again.

We had mussels, shrimp, tiger shrimp, a lobster, side of garlic butter, fried butterfly shrimp rice and fries and two sodas“

“Came here on a Tuesday for lunch with my parents. It was a bit busy, but the wait was under 10 minutes, which wasn’t bad at all.

We ordered the usual dim sum staples and added one special item, the imperial cold chicken. That dish was the standout. Super flavorful, tender, and honestly the highlight of the meal. Everything else we ordered was solid and hit the spot. The food overall was really good.

Ambiance is exactly what you’d expect from a classic Chinese restaurant. Loud, busy, and energetic. You can still hold a conversation, but you’ll need to raise your voice a bit.

Now the downside. Service was lacking. We had to refill our own teapot and grab our own to-go boxes. No real attentiveness, and compared to other dim sum spots nearby, the service here falls short.

Parking is convenient. They have a small free lot plus free street parking, which is always a plus.

Would I come back? If someone else suggested it, sure. The food is excellent, but the service definitely needs improvement.“

“Buenísimo todo 😉👍😋 excelente atención y servicio ☺️ limpieza 🧹 y buen precio 👏👏👏“

“The restaurant offered a variety of fresh seafood dishes that were bursting with flavor. The quality of the ingredients was evident, and each bite was a delight. The attentive service added to the overall enjoyable experience. I highly recommend this restaurant to Marisco lovers. Will be coming back“

“This restaurant is my number one restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I prefere it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to this restaurant. Whenever I feel like having a good lunchon, this place comes straight to my head. best and many types of food and a large list of dishes.great crew, and nice vibes. Not less important, the cost is decent. I recommend this place with no hesitation.“

“Great food, portions are bonkers good. Food quality is top notch and well worth the price. Staff are super friendly as well. I got a combo plate and unlike other Japanese restaurants I actually got beef that was properly cooked. After seeing the portions of the sushi rolls I will try those out next time because they were giant. Will definitely return.“
