50 Best Seafood Restaurants near East Palo Alto

“Mexican Japanese fusion... Who Knew!

Absolutely fantastic. Easy to pass by... Some sketchy characters out front, but absolutely worth the trek to East Palo Alto!

Kid-friendliness: Normal non Mexican options for the philistines... I mean lovely children.“

“We celebrated Father’s Day at Cap’t Loui and it was truly an amazing experience from start to finish. Our server, Aung, went above and beyond to make sure our family was well taken care of along with the rest of the team, they made sure our water glasses were always full and our dump buckets were emptied promptly, so we could just relax and enjoy our meal.

The food, as always, was delicious fresh seafood and great flavors that keep us coming back. But what really makes Cap’t Loui stand out is how they genuinely care about their guests. I was so impressed by the extra touches: the restroom has mouthwash and there’s a hygiene station stocked with toothbrushes, hair ties, lotion, stain remover, and even tampons.

It’s rare to find a restaurant that doesn’t just feed you well but also thinks about your comfort and little unexpected needs. For me, dining here felt like more than just having lunch it was a thoughtful, comfortable experience that made our Father’s Day special.

Highly recommend Cap’t Loui and a big shoutout to Aung and the wonderful team! We’ll definitely be back.“

“Our take-out fish and chips were disappointing. Chips were undercooked and not crisp. The fish under the brown hard crust was OK but the whole presentation was unlike any light crispy dish our family has ever had as fish and chips. Not a repeat meal for us.“

“Great restaurant“

“Will be back! Great food 😋😋😋“

“I recommend Tacos Y MARISCOS El GORDO because of their yummy delicious SHRIMP tacos are my favorite plus I’ve had their Quesadilla and Mexican style shrimp cocktail… I like the fact that their children whom are teenagers work part time whom are polite and friendly like their parents“

“Me encantó si lo recomiendo 👍🏻“

“Ordered pickup so can't really comment on service or atmosphere aside from it was 10 mins from when I placed my order to when the food was ready so that was nice and just seeing the interior and parking lot when I stopped by. Plenty of parking and it has an hamburger joint vibe to it.

I ordered the Fish, Shrimp, Oyster, and Scallop combo. Probably my fault for not figuring out that it includes chips too since it was in the combo section but the fact that they don't specify it threw me off so I ended up ordering another small side of chips. Oops.

They included a container of cocktail sauce, tartar sauce, several packets of ketchup, and one of malt vinegar. Would have been nice to get some extra containers but I managed. Everything was tasty and the quality of their fry was excellent, moreso because I picked it up 10 mins after it was done and another 15 min drive home. The battering maintained it's crunchiness, which is great! My gripe here is with their chips. Generally I'm disappointed in this style of chips but they lacked enough salt, which really made them taste bland. On top of it they were cold by the time I ate, which is a bit surprising since everything else was still a good temperature.

I'll be back again, especially since they serve Mitchell's ice cream, which I somehow missed when I ordered online but will pass on getting any chips.“

“Rico todo , buen servicio“

“Yummy Salmon!!!! Varieties of Food!! Fruit waters & TV!!!“

“muy rico todo completamente familiar puede divertirse y se siente como en su casa muy rico todo muy buena atencion recomendadisimo“

“My favorite taco truck! I love how every time I visit they greet me excitedly, exclaiming, Amanda!!! They always brighten my day and truly treat me like la familia. My Dad Loves their $5 ceviche bowl and tostadas. I always have the best time playing games with their 3 children, all so sweet, smart, well mannered, and my bonita. 😃“

“It was a great dinner. We took another couple out for my birthday. The friends mentioned that it was my birthday and the waiter said that merited a free bowl. I was going to order the ahi tuna bowl anyway, so my bountiful and delicious bowl was free. I also had points because I am a rewards member. We had a free appetizer of calamari. And I was given a free birthday dessert. I wasn't counting on any of that, but the gifts were very much appreciated and makes me even more eager to keep coming back to Pacific Catch in Mountain View. Everyone else's dinner was also delish, the fish and chips and salmon sandwich. My husband and friends offered me bites. Natalie Bivas“

“I really love California Fish Grill in Cypress for dinner forever!! ☺️☺️🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💞💞💞💞💞💓💓💓💓💓💓💗💗💗💗💗💗💗🍽“

“We are a walkable distance from the Pruneyard but prefer other locations. Every aspect at the Sunnyvale location is so much better. From the time you are greeted when you arrive until you leave. We enjoyed a free shareable with an offer that the Campbell location said I already used at the Sunnyvale location. First time at the Sunnyvale location but definitely not our last. Tacos on Tuesday were a hit. Both the fish and shrimp are delicious. The guacamole is a very generous portion. Definitely a go to any time or day of the week.“

“This is prob our fav seafood boil place in the Bay Area. We got the Ray’s combination bag and the garlic fries. Def both had good flavor and not too salty. Also, if it’s your bday they will give you free ice cream.
Fyi on our recent visit, they did automatically add tip into our receipt even though it was just two people. It was for 15%. We liked the service though, so we didn’t mind.“

“This is a wonderful, hidden gem! Beautiful weather, felt like a mini vaca, overlooking the bay! Oh ya, the food! Spot on. They have the recipe down. Delicious, crispy and fresh. No need to travel to the coast! Definitely try the shrimp tacos and fresh lemonade!“

“La comida que preparan es buena, me encantó la quesadilla de camarón el servicio que te dan esta bien y volveré para probar más cosas. Lo recomiendo“

“La sopa súper deliciosa, sin embargo no ofrecen bebidas al momento de tomar la orden. Aunque si hay bebidas gaseosas y demás no nos ofrecieron nada de eso, las raciones son algo pequeñas.“

“Amazing food, excellent service, family owned and run local restaurant that is consistently fresh and delicious with huge portions! Love this place!“

“06.14.25 Saturday
Fashion Wok = Home Eat
Excellent service from all staff, very good, hot, fresh food & beautiful location in downtown Sunnyvale! Parking in the back open complex gets full but across the street in the parking structure there's plenty of parking there.

Home Eat is best known for tasty chicken dishes, I would never recommend beef dishes. Their Mongolian Beef isn't good at all.

Today's fare (large portions!);
-Mapo Tofu: delicious and NO sugar added, as it should be
-General Tso's Chicken w.broccoli florets: delicious, sweet, with a tiny bit of heat
-A. Choy stir fried bok choy: ok, but their eggplant and string beans is much tastier
-Sesame Chicken: very good, sweet, no heat
-Kungpao Chicken: absolutely delicious, perfect flavor
-Cumin Lamb: only for those who love cumin
-Grandma Curry Wok: just ok
-Egg Yolk Fried Chicken Wings, like 12+ pieces: no. Smelled like egg yolk, was fresh but didn't taste good, wouldn't reorder or recommend
-Spicy Pepper Fried Chicken Wings, also 12+ pieces, also fresh but not tasty at all and also not one bit spicy.
***For fried flavorful chicken wings, just go to the Korean restaurants that serve them to light up your taste buds“

“🎉 Just had an unforgettable evening at Ettan! Cozy vibes, top-notch service, and every dish was a masterpiece. 🍽 The chef's special? Mind-blowing! 🤯 Whether it's for the ambiance, the flavors, or the amazing staff, Ettan's a must-visit. Left with a full belly and even fuller heart. ❤️ Can't wait to go back! #EttanMagic #FoodieDream #BestDinnerEver“

“Food ambiance service location“

“Súper Delicious, I recommend it to all my friends !“

“This is surely one of the finest place in the region. Whenever I come to this place I am absolutely satisfied. They keep their very high level service and the highest level of dishes they give. You always win with this place. Highly recommended.“

“very good food and friendly staff!!! the food is pricy but very good“

“Solid fried chicken, was very juicy and the fries and biscuit were amazing. I opted for the white meat and shrimp combo, I'd probably skip the shrimp next time (they were good but it was so much food), think the meal and a drink was 27 and change.

Will definitely be back, don't suggest eating inside though it's a bit small and very warm inside.“

“Some of the best hot pot I have had and the customer service was great“

“La comida es super deliciosa 👌 y el servicio que ofrecen es excelente“

“I truly appreciate the authenticity of Chinese cuisine, and the exceptional culinary skills showcased. The special tea duck, in particular, captivates my taste buds with its exquisite flavor. Each bite is a delightful experience, making it a standout dish for me.“

“Amazing food and excellent service - highly recommend“

“The food was really very tasty. The staff were very humble and courteous. Food was served in an excellent way.“

“muy rica comida! y los ceviches son delicious 😋“

“This restaurant truly shines when it comes to customer service. Our server Mark went above and beyond throughout our entire visit - his thoughtful food recommendations were spot-on, his attentive service never felt intrusive, and he even took care of arranging our to-go boxes without us having to ask. It's rare to find someone who anticipates your needs so well while maintaining such a genuine, friendly demeanor. Mark's outstanding service elevated what was already a great meal into a memorable dining experience.

Highly recommend asking for him if you visit!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“My husband & I go to flemmings on special occasions, we love everything about the restaurant! Also awesome lemon drops🍸🍸🍸🍸👌😊“

“Great food, drinks and service!“

“It was the soft opening, so I understand they were still setting things up. Nice staff, and good service. Had them recommended items, and was not upset. Got the baked cheese appetizer and 12 oysters. Beautiful bar, and Mediterranean feel when sitting inside or outside. Will go back again“

“First time at Pranzi...loved everything! Ambience, service and food were the best! Our server, Matt, was friendly, knowledgeable and did not rush us. The owner and staff knowing that it was first time, went out of their way to make our experience the best it could be. We will definitely be back soon!,“

“Wonderful neighborhood restaurant.“

“Excelente todo está fresco; Limpio y un lugar acogedor para disfrutar de una suculenta comida o cena …“

“Really delightful surprise! We loved our meal. The drinks were really fresh and tasty - real fruit not just mixers. The food was absolutely delicious. We loved the lomo saltado, the classic ceviche, and the classic Peruvian style paella. The grilled octopus, Leche de Tigre ceviche and squid ink paella were also so good! We will definitely be back.“

“It is rare that I would give a 5-star review to a restaurant that scores 4 on the food. However, I'm giving VK an exception. Yes, restaurants are about the food, but also the overall experience and the value.

VK has recently emerged in San Mateo and we visited for breakfast. This is not your high-end fancy breakfast place. This is a down-to-earth every day local eatery type of vibe. Of course not commercial as IHOP or Denny's and definitely a step above. It also isn't an Instagram shot type of a place. It truly exists to serve hearty food. And that's what it does.

The atmosphere again is a standard eatery. Sort of a diner, sort of a vanilla look & feel. I had the Steak Omelet and instant I could feel that this wasn't your commercial grade quality. The chef had used great ingredients and cooked it with care. Seasoned well, it was tasty. The side veggies also were done right. The pancakes were not top grade but could absolutely stand its own. The only reason why I retracted a star away was because it just missed border of being "special". Great food. Great taste. Just a bit too vanilla. Oh, and one of my pancakes still had a bit of runny batter in the middle, but that's okay.

Service was great. Coffee was bold and good, considering they brew these in pots.

All of the above, at a price point that is surprisingly equal or just slightly above IHOP.

VK's is absolutely a solid addition to the neighborhood. It isn't a place you come for. It is a place you go because you can rely on it. It is a working class, every day type of spot. And they are not shy about it. Will absolutely return.

Parking: Plenty of parking in the plaza.“

“Great service. Great food“

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

“A nice restaurant with a local clientele. We had dinner on a weekday night and saw several regular customers enjoying their meals with no rush to leave. Our meals were good value, well prepared and quite filling. The restaurant has clearly been here for some time with happy diners.“
