50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Millbrae

“The peppercorn deep fried Dungeness crab was delicious. It was cooked just right. Meat was fresh, tender and tasty esp with the chopped garlic and peppercorns. The lightly breaded deep fried shell was perfectly seasoned, not too salty. Definitely will come again!“

“Our church had an anniversary dinner at Yan Peninsula restaurant yesterday. We have a delightful experience from start to finish. The quality of the food was fresh and tasty. The staffs attentive and friendly. We are enjoying a wonderful evening.“

“I ate there last week for the first time in several years. The menu is large and many different styles of food. I had the Prime Rib and it was EXCELLENT. There was 2 others in my party and they were equally impressed. Another benefit is that there are no parking problems. I will definitely eat there again.“

“Really good Chinese BBQ place. All of the bread items we tried were flaky and tasty, highly recommend the brown sugar one. The skewers were all solid, and I appreciated that the beef had a more teriyaki-style flavor, because too much cumin starts to get a bit sameish. In that regard, you should consider getting an order of the lettuce leaves to use as a wrap for the skewers, it's a great palette cleanser and adds some nice texture.

Would love to go again, but it's a bit far from my house and Chinese BBQ isn't something you can do too frequently.“

“粥品美味道地。沙薑雞實在太好吃了。“

“My family and relatives came to this restaurant. Because we were a big group, we made a RSVP ahead of time and glad we did as this place gets packed quick! The dim sum was great, and the staff was friendly and responsive. I wouldn't mind coming back here in the future.“

“Great consistently tasty food. Good selection of both seafood and non seafood items. My family loves celebrating birthdays here.“

“Jeanette was outstanding a true professional. Whenever we travel from Connecticut we stop in . We will be back in May and ask for Jeanette ahead of time . Thanks Excellent service“

“One of our favorite places“

“Excente atención Delicioso todo El Sr Adrian y sus 2 compañeros nos atendieron de lujo 100% recomendable“

“Anchored in the bay, all the way from Puget sound and a dinghy ride in for food. Walked around and quickly realized this was the busiest spot in town. Cold beverages outside made the wait alright. The "award winning" fish and chips were great! Calamari too. Great food, generous portions & good view of our boats. Staff was fun too. Cheers!“

“Their chef Ramzy openly admits to tampering with the food of Jewish customers and ownership does nothing. Avoid this place and the Nazis who run it.“

“Delightful food and service. Incredibly attentive host—always had enough water and the food came out hot and fresh with clear attention to ingredients and cooking method. Highly recommend the calamari appetizer, lamb tenderloin, and gnocchietti. Lamb tenderloin was perfectly cooked! The gelato flavors were extremely unique (goat cheese and fig, and rum raisin). Thanks, Cheryl, for having us!“

“The food is amazing! Armando is a FANTASTIC server!!“

“Was greeted & seated promptly. Welcomed by Manager Hung. Brittany was our waitress & we received the 20th Anniversary Sacks. Happy Anniversary.“

“We ordered this via Doordash on a whim because we were craving it.
The jajjangmyeon was one of the best that I had =)
The jjamppong was very unique with half a crab included. It was delicious, but a bit too spicy for me.
We can't give a comment on service/atmosphere but we were very satisfied with our meal. Definitely would visit again in store to try it fresh on the spot!!“

“Great poke near SFO! About $20 for a huge bowl with 5 kinds of sashimi — perfect for anyone trying to eat light but stay full. I picked tuna, salmon, octopus, scallops, and another fish, with brown rice, veggies, and spicy mayo. Super fresh and filling until the end of the workday.

Ordering is easy — you just check boxes on the menu, no need for much talking (introvert-friendly ✅). The place is clean and casual, great for a quick healthy lunch.

They also have curry chicken katsu (crispy and delicious), sushi, ramen, and takoyaki. Definitely worth a try if you’re in the area!“

“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.“

“Check it out. Delicious food.“

“My son took me here for lunch - we’d been meaning to try it. We were very pleased - amazing view with tiered tables so other guests aren’t blocking the view. The service was exceptional and the food was delicious and nicely presented. As a nice addition, there was a pianist playing while we dined which added to the ambience. We will come back because it was such a nice treat. One of those places that makes me love living in California!“

“Great place for fish and chips or a burger!“

“Fish and chips are awesome. Shrimp skewer is delicious. Good value for the price.“

“Amazing down to earth people. Best entertainment option“

“I was there with my daughter and we both have great appetite. plates have plenty of food and it was delicious so much that my daughter bought extra hot sauce she really enjoyed it well so do I. highly recommended and I will visit you guys again whenever I go back to California.“

“Parking: free parking, but very busy over the weekend.

I have seen many locations across the bay area.

Food: Most of the foods are grilled or fried. All of them are tasty and fresh. Many fish choices, sauces, and sites to choose from. My favorite sauces are garlic butter and Cajun. The fish and chips are very good with tartar sauce. The grilled sea bass fish are very flavorful and would recommend having sauce on the side.

Price: very reasonable price for portions of food.“

“Had my double nickels bday here while on a visit to Half Moon Bay. The family owners are incredibly kind; I couldn’t have asked for a nicer bday dining experience. The food is yum; beautiful presentation. Paella, bravas, scallops… thumbs up!“

“A cute little restaurant with a lot of soul and delicious food!! The woman who served us was really nice, the place is very clean, the menu has a variety of options and there is a really good vibe.

My husband ordered the basil fried rice with a moderate level of spiciness. He loved it, although it was still a little too spicy for him. Next time he will ask for less spicy. I ordered Kao Moo Dang and it was delicious! It is sweetly spiced and there is also a sweet and slightly spicy sauce that comes on the side. To finish, we ordered an egg tart. I could eat it every day!

Overall, we both enjoyed it very much and there are many more options that I want to try. We will definitely be back!“

“I liked the food. I had green with house special rice plate and beef mogolian rice place. It came big portion. But the only thing I would suggest about this place is the cleanliness. The place looks run down and not as clean. But the food tasted good and thoroughly cooked. The owner is nice. We came at the busy time we had to wait about 15-20minutes which is not bad.“

“I came in on (9/1) right before 7 pm with 3 of my friends. It seemed a little busy for a monday…well, it’s labor day. Our server, Betty (i think) made sure to keep bringing us fresh biscuits while we waited on our food. Betty was exceptionally sweet. I think we were her last table but she went out of her way to be nice to us. One of my friends had a togo order and she waited to make sure the burger got to us before she left her shift. she was so genuinely gracious, pleasant and accommodating We all hope she is working the next time we are in. she’s a great server.❤️ we’re already planning our next trip“

“Cute little Italian restaurant. Superb service and mouth watering menu!“

“Best fish and chips we have ever had. We miss not being close enough to eat here. Always look forward to coming "home" and eating here.“

“Love eating here at Chibog;) Home cook meal! Great service as well. They have so many delicious food to choose from!“

“everything was really good and the atmosphere was very elegant but the only thing is we ordered the snow crab and lobster tails with the mild sauce but that didn't matter because it was still a bit spicy and to be honest we like a little space to our food but if you don't like spicy food then don't order the butter souce“

“The parihuela de mariscos, anticuchos, tallarines verdes con carne and pescado sudado were all good, well served plates. The empanada the day I went there was not well prepared… the chicha morada was very good and the dessert lucuma ice cream was excellent.“

“Love the dry aged porterhouse, juicy and delicious. The service was phenomenal and of course the new location.“

“Late lunch. Not busy. Slightly dated atmosphere but very casual. Boneless pork ribs were delicious. The octopus was hard to cut but was tasty and not chewy. Crab sandwich was very good with a fresh cold salad. The seafood pasta very good with lots of seafood cooked just right.“

“JC Bruno is more than a restaurant, it’s a relationship. It’s now my #1 spot, and I’d recommend it in a heartbeat to anyone looking for great food, genuine people, and unforgettable service! If you’re looking for a go-to restaurant that feels like your favorite local spot and your second home, JC Bruno is it. I truly mean when I say that Marcela, the owner, is the soul of this place, and she has completely redefined what true hospitality means in today’s world. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted not just by a friendly staff, but by people who genuinely care. Marcela herself is always around, and what makes her so special is that she doesn’t act like a distant owner, but rather you feel like you’re planning something with a longtime friend. She’ll chat with you, laugh with you, and most importantly, she stands by you to help plan your perfect experience, whether you’re organizing a small dinner or a full-blown celebration. What blew me away most was how flexible she is. JC Bruno’s menu is already this amazing fusion of European, Mediterranean, and other international flavors, but if there’s something special you want that’s not listed? Just ask. Marcela will go out of her way to make it happen. That kind of flexibility is almost unheard of these days. I’ve worked with many restaurants for events and special dinners, but working with Marcela is different because she treats you like a partner, not a transaction. She’ll talk through your vision, offer smart suggestions, and help you figure out the best possible setup for your group. The way she collaborates with you makes it fun and stress-free. It’s rare to find a place where the owner is this involved and down-to-earth.“

“We had an absolutely lovely experience here! Came for my boyfriend’s birthday, everyone was friendly and attentive. Fantastic high end ambience. The food was almost too beautiful to eat and every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. One of our guests said it was the best spaghetti he had ever had! The mushroom risotto was perfection. I had the Chilean sea bass and WOW! The salmon was also amazing. The other two guests had roasted chicken and hangar steak… I didn’t get to try them but they looked amazing and everyone cleaned their plate even though we were full lol! We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!! 5 stars ⭐️“

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

“¡La comida es excelente y un servicio increíble! Pedí tacos de carne asada y me encantaron. ¡La salsa y las papas fritas estaban muy buenas!“

“Excellent food, excellent service, excellent ambiance!“

“like being in Italy. Fabulous food, excellent service. The atmosphere is so Italian you'll think that you are in Italia. Bravo.“

“Hamburgers are beyond delicious.“

“We let the owners order for us as it was our first El Salvadorian food experience. The atmosphere was festive and colorful, and the hospitality and customer service was top tier. Of course the food was amazing 🤩 We’re coming back ☀️“

“It's hard to beat $2 nigiri!

Super cute sushi spot that serves up a too good to be true happy hour and vegan sushi! They do have actual fish and alternative fish :)

Their happy hour is daily from 5-9pm which is amazing and they have an ayce vegan sushi deal as well. They have more than just the $2 nigiri in their happy hour menu, you can also get rolls and hand rolls!

I thought their fish quality was fresh and the nigiri was delicious! The rice was a little heavy but overall super enjoyable! My favorite was definitely the toro and saba. I also really enjoyed their blue crab handroll. I was too full to try their rolls but I could smell the lion king roll and it smelled delicious.

Parking can be tough but it's in a charming neighborhood. Staff and service were awesome! I would definitely come back!“

“Neal’s Coffee Shop is one of those rare spots that still feels like a true neighborhood gem. The moment you walk in, you get that classic, old-school diner vibe—warm, welcoming, and unpretentious.

The food is consistently great, especially the breakfast. The portions are generous, everything tastes fresh, and you can tell they actually care about quality. Whether it’s pancakes, omelets, or a simple cup of coffee, it always hits the spot.

What really makes this place stand out is the service. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel like a regular even if it’s your first visit.

If you’re looking for a relaxed place with solid comfort food and a genuine local feel, Neal’s Coffee Shop is definitely worth a visit. I’ll be coming back again for sure.“

“Best dim sum in SF. Shark fin dumpling and deep fried pork puff are the best items. Low prices. No seating. To go only. Closes early, at 4 pm.“

“Still the best kept secret in San Mateo. I’m moving tomorrow and this food is what I’m going to miss the most. The portions are generous, the price is affordable, the service can’t be beat. Cash only. Small parking lot. Family owned and operated. The carne asada is delicious! Actually I haven’t had a bad meal here. Take away is available. You won't be disappointed . Skip the la cumbre and pancho villa. Come get the best!“
