50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Fresno

“There fish is absolutely amazing best I've eaten in Fresno by far!! And the customer service again amazing!!“

“Amazing customer service, fast, friendly, the closest thing to home-made. Overall really good Laos authentic food. :)“

“CFC is a great place to eat if you like fried battered fish, rice and a salad in a very casual atmosphere. It's always fresh and yummy. It's also a great place to buy fresh fish to take home and cook! I also like shopping up and down the aisles. There's really good miso salad dressing, freshly made sushi to go, the occasional Japanese cooking utensils and a variety of matcha to choose from. There are many wonderful products there from fresh produce, wine and much more. Go and explore this long time gem in Chinatown! You'll be glad you did!“

“Here on business. This is a must go to on your visit to Fresno.“

“I was craving ceviche and decided to try this place. Placed a pick up order & the lady was super nice over the phone and in person. OMG the food was BOMB! Came with tostadas, saltine crackers, tajin and chile. Presentation was super nice as well did not expect that. I will def be going there from now on!!“

“Delicious!! Will definitely be back!“

“First time visiting CFG, will definitely go back. The serving was good size, just right.
Fish and chips with kaleslaw was great. Wife had a shrimp avocado ceasars salad, excellent. Paulina and staff was helpful and courteous, the restaurant was very clean, with a great environment..“

“Love the Molcajete with Cayó,. Wish they would just add avocado slices to the bigger, for the price should have a few included. Always have to ask for some after we pick up food. Kids chicken nuggets are a bit overpriced so if you have picky eaters don't take them. They should move their trash cans away from customers entrance or parking lot, the smell of rotten fish almost kills my appetite. Other than that food is great, music always playing nice and loud.“

“Had a great night tonight 🦀“

“Me encanta su Atención al aire libré y las botanas y ceviche de camarón riquísima“

“Called in Ready in 15-20 minutes Food was delicious! Always is“

“I want to give a big shout out to a manager at the Fresno location by the name of Chris. He truly went above and beyond to make my friend's 83rd birthday special. My friend has dietary restrictions due to his health issues and this dinner almost didn't happen if it wasn't for Chris. Give this man a raise! We both had filets and baked potatoes, which were excellent, done to perfection, and the steaks were deserving of the term "melt in your mouth."“

“Max's always has a flair for food that is uniquely flavorful and delicious. We love everything from the burgers and sweet potato fries (with aioli sauce, yum!) to the yummy salads and dinners. Their desserts are fantastic as well. Love the ambiance there. It's great for a big group gathering or a nice date night dinner!“

“lo recomiendo por qué tiene y buena comida y un buen servicio además esas micheladas ni se diga bien buenas 😃“

“I’ve been enjoying Castillo’s since 2002. It’s always worth the long drive. The hospitality is unmatched! Customer Service is phenomenal. The food is always fresh and fast! I love their pico de gallo. Mmmmwahhh it’s muy perfecto! 💗 This place is immaculate. Affordably priced. I have zero complaints! The wine does its job. The music here reflects their culture. I just can’t say enough. Make this place your once a week addition! You won’t regret it!“

“The Xinantecatl Restaurant arose on our horizon after a week of backpacking in the Sierras. I'm sure it wasn't only the contrast with rehydrated camping food while slapping hummingbird-sized mosquitoes. But this place is the real deal! Each person in our five person party descended into reverential silence while enjoying fajitas, salad with steak, camarones a la veracruzana (spicy and savory) and camarones a la diablo (SPICY and savory). Meals were served with hot corn tortillas following complimentary excellent thick cut tortilla chips and both red and tomatillo salsas, both tangy and yummy. The man who greeted us was also the chef and waiter, a charming guy on top of talented and efficient cook and cultural translator (ask him what the restaurant name means!).  Complimentary ice creams were his final gift as we departed home to the showers he never let on knowing that we needed.  I'll be back for sure whenever I'm in town!“

“The Staff was awesome, the food was hot fresh and very tasty. I will definitely return here to try again next time I'm in Fresno. If you can swing by and try this great place. Next best thing to being on the coast in Santa Cruz for fish and chips at a great cost. How much more can I say on this review, seriously. Have you tried it yet? Why not? Go!“

“My family and I were visiting Yosemite and stopped to eat here. We ordered red snapper fillets, basa fillets, chili cheese fries, chili burger, and ceviche. Large portions, fresh tasty fish, and great tasting chili. We would go back if we were in Fresno again.“

“Great fresh food. Prepared in a timely manner.“

“Freshly made highly flavored chicken bone in or the ever so amazingly tasting tenders with some jojo's makes coming here to an almost to busy but controlled environment clean store and not the worst cashiers in Fresno at least they do crack a smile for you. Tel, the truth it's quite like a family environment. I don't know what else to say other than go down there and give it a shot the food will be worth it. Have a good one!!!“

“Great food, great service! We love Richards“

“Fast friendly service and of course the food is outstanding“

“we made a order for a special dinner, we ordered a few dinner plates and appetizers. two of the dishes sides we requested were "vegetarian" however when we opened our order it was NOT vegetarian. we also ordered cheese wontons and they had crab in them when we commented on this the manager was INCREDIBLY RUDE and asked if the menu stated they were "vegetarian cheese wontons" like we didn't know what we were reading off the menu or as if he didn't know what exactly was stated on the menu.“

“Loved the menudo. Definitely will be back.“

“I called the morning of 08/01 to make a same-day reservation for a party of 7 to celebrate my wife’s birthday. The gentleman who took my call was incredibly professional — he listened attentively, understood the importance of the occasion, and suggested a table in the banquet room for a more private experience. He even let me know we were welcome to bring our own cake and decor. That level of attentiveness set the tone, and I was immediately impressed with the restaurant and the potential for a memorable evening.

However, upon arrival, things took a disappointing turn. I had my wife wait in the car with our son so I could set up the table, only to be informed by the hostess that our reservation had been moved to a high-top table outside of the banquet room. I explained that this wasn’t what I had reserved, and that a high table wouldn’t work due to having children in our party. Instead of attempting to understand or resolve the situation, the hostess was dismissive and made me feel as if my request was unreasonable — despite it being a reservation I had clearly confirmed. Her tone, body language, and general attitude lacked professionalism and created a poor first impression. Additional training in customer service and hospitality is strongly recommended.

Thankfully, the service from Catarina, our server, along with the food runners and bussers — especially Abe — turned the experience around. Their attentiveness, friendliness, and professionalism were exceptional. They made us feel welcomed, celebrated, and well taken care of. This level of service truly reflects what you’d expect from a restaurant striving to become a local favorite.

As for the food — I ordered the ribeye and it was spot-on. Everyone in our group was pleased with their meals; the quality was evident and the flavors delivered. Pricing was also very reasonable for the quality and overall experience.

In summary, despite the rocky start, the dining experience was saved by an outstanding service team and quality cuisine. I would return — and I look forward to seeing service excellence reflected across the board on future visits.“

“Love the laab.... Pad Thai looks good to 👍🏽 Coconut and mango options, sweet rice and sticky rice 🍚“

Wheelchair accessibility: Taco truck located in open lot on NE corner of Peach Ave and Church.“

“Birthday Dinner at Ruth's Chris 🎉🥩🧀 Celebrated my birthday at Ruth's Chris Steak House, and it couldn't have been more perfect. I ordered the filet, and it was absolutely melt-in-your-mouth tender served sizzling on that signature 500-degree plate. Pure perfection. 🔥 And let's talk about the mac & cheese... ridiculously rich, creamy, and totally indulgent. Honestly, it could've been a meal all on its own! The service was top-notch the staff made me feel special from the moment I walked in, and even surprised me with a birthday dessert (with a candle 🎂). The whole experience was elegant, warm, and full of little thoughtful touches. Grateful for a night of amazing food, great vibes, and the best way to kick off a new year of life. 💫🍷“

“I checked out the new Clovis location. Great food, friendly staff, good prices! Loved it!“

“Can’t go wrong with Ono Hawaiian BBQ.
I got the #14 — beef and chicken combo with double mac and rice — and it did not disappoint. The meat was flavorful, and that mac salad always hits just right. Portions were solid too. If you’re hungry and craving that island-style comfort food, this spot does the job.“

“Very good“

“BEST TACOS EVER HANDS DOWN! 😍 the tacos taste like heaven in your mouth 🤤“

“Been coming to this restaurant for about a year and have loved the experience every time. customer service is amazing the energy the servers have is amazing specially OMAR AND JULIA. The food is always really good I’ve tried a few different dishes so far I’ve liked everything“

“We have had the opportunity to enjoy various dishes, from Ceviche to Enchiladas, Caldo Seafood Mix to Pescado Frito. The Shrimp Empandas and homemade corn tortillas are a treat as well. However, we tried their Shrimp Coctails, and they were pretty bland. But there are so many more dishes to try and sure to enjoy.

Btw - Their green salsa is fire and the Pescado Zarandeado is huge and delicious!“
