50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Newark

“Me encantó si lo recomiendo 👍🏻“

“We stopped by Ray's Crab Shack last Friday for a casual family dinner. The place isn't fancy, but it's clean, well-lit, and surprisingly kid-friendly for a seafood spot. The portions are generous - easily enough to share.

Everything came out hot, seasoned well, and not overly salty, which I appreciate. Prices are fair for what you get, and parking's easy even on a weekend.

Not somewhere we'd go every week, but for a relaxed, messy, seafood-with-the-family kind of night, it's a solid choice. We'll be back when the craving hits.“

“A great Japanese restuarant offering halal hibachi and sushi rolls. Small but cosy ambiance.
Personally love their dinner hibachi (Steak & chicken , steak & beef both). They serve hibachi with a soup and some salad which is great stuff. The spicy tuna rolls and the Californian rolls are worth the treat. I personally feel the hibachi serving should be slightly more but I don’t mind the current serving as well.
What I did not like was yakisoba, it had very less veges. Service overall is great. Must try if you’re looking for halal Japanese good food. However, it’s a bit pricy comparatively.“

“I’m quite shocked how much food they gave me after all of the Chinese takeouts I’ve been too! It’s no wonder that this place has received higher ratings. This plate I have can get you full in no time unless you share it or save up for dinner later. The food here is even tasty. That two-item combo costs around $13!

I heard that this restaurant also serves à la carte, but you can also go through fast-food style like what I had today. Place wasn’t really big but the seating area in a way stands out. You can probably wait there until your order is ready. Also, I was scrolling through the foods from the display. Seems that many people ate here during lunch while I came here for dinner. Doesn’t seem that they have plenty of options from the display for combo orders, but that’s alright.

Honestly, I thought that the Spicy Orange Chicken would be very spicy, but gladly, it isn’t. I was hoping that I don’t end up drinking too much water from severe spiciness. I have tried the regular Orange Chicken from a similar place, but didn’t like it.

This will be one of the favorite Chinese takeouts I will go to for now on. Looking forward for more!“

“Came here for the first time, and got the LA galbi, seafood pancake, and spicy soy marinated crab. The staff were really friendly, and the food was delicious. Everything was tasty and well balanced. Only thing was the pancake could have been cooked longer/crispier. I will come back again when craving Korean food!!“

“Back to my most favorite place to eat. Thanks to you Mr Abdul Aziz and your wife, you were upto the best as always. I have been coming to this place for last six years.Best authentic and food that tastes just like made at home. Hopefully I was staying near. I would go there every day. Thank you to Mr and Mrs Abdul for keeping this place a great one.“

“Yummy food and excellent service. This is what I would say about Good Neighbor Restaurant.

The restaurant is not very busy when we have our table at around 6:30pm on Sunday. But lots of customers are coming in a little after we have our table. The dining room is full at around 7pm. We’re fortunate to have a table before everyone else comes. We are lucky because we can have a delicious dinner at a very reasonable price. Most of the dishes we ordered are of above-average to excellent quality. The best thing that impressed us was their customer service. The lady who served our table went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our meal.

I loved my experience at Good Neighbor Restaurant and cannot wait to go back.“

“Will be back! Great food 😋😋😋“

“Fantastic value and quality!

I got the chicken combo which included a delicious, juicy, smoky teriyaki chicken and crispy and flavorful chicken katsu. The food was served quick and was fresh and so flavorful. My sides were grilled veggies which were perfectly cooked and a delicious Mac salad. This place is great - the portions are generous and the food is fresh and so tasty. Will definitely be back any time I’m in the area and can’t wait to try their other menu items.“

“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.

“Bomb 💣.com not bad for the price I got full of the large poke bowl“

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

“Kinda my favorite place til recently. Waiter F’d blamed me. 4 dined, we gave our order. 1 person changed their order, so 3 meals ended up being the same, then there was mine. They ended changing my order instead of the other person, he argued with me until he realized he messed up, never said sorry, and then still got my order wrong by cook my salmon well instead of veggies, which they forgot to add, but I paid anyways, to go.“

“(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.“

“Tried their food for the first time and I reenjoyed it.
The food seemed quite fresh and tasty. Love the large selection of toppings they have as well.
I absolutely loved their wasabi which was the spiciest one I have tried so far.
I will be going there again.“

“This is my current favorite restaurant! I try to come in at least once a week and always get my favorite table! I’ve tried several different menu items and everything has always been consistently delicious! The service is friendly and attentive (my drinks always stay full) and the atmosphere is fun and casual. As far as price, I’ll just say I’ve paid A LOT more for food that wasn’t half as good!“

“The Mango Margarita at Mama Lupita's is simply divine. It's not too sweet and has just the right amount of tanginess.“

“🎉 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“

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

“Always Been Our Go-To For Any Occassion. Everything Is Great But Their Oyster Shot Is The Best“

“Great service. Great food“

“Good food nice service nothing but the best“

“This little restaurant offers some of the best shrimp and lobster po' boys in all of California. It's small, but quaint. The staff is ready to assist you as you enter; some will even open the door for you. I've always had a pleasant experience there.“

“The Dim Sum brunch js always delicious. Come early to guarantee a seat for larger parties of 6 or more. They are friendly and very accommodating. I also enjoy their dinner menu. I also recommend this restaurant for banquet style dinners and special occasions.“

“Update August 2025: temporarily removing one star as they have very rigid ordering. Could not add a second patty to my surf and turf combo? I’m willing to pay extra, they said they can’t because the system won’t allow it. That’s pretty silly that they can’t physically cook and add a second patty just because their “system” won’t allow it? I’ll check back in a few weeks and update my review of this is fixed.

Wow! This place is GREAT! It’s definitely gourmet. Think juiciness of The Melt, casualness of In-N-Out, but gourmet quality of a proper restaurant (delicate buttery brioche buns, better quality meat), with your college town burger shack vibe. I hope they’re here to stay because this is going to be my new spot. Only wish they were open later (i.e. 11pm)!“

“Nice quiet evening with wife. They offered a special menu for New Year's Eve. Service was great as usual. Prime rib good but a little too tough. Sometimes it melts in your mouth like butter and sometimes not. Over all satisfied with food.“

“The food here is fantastic. I had the Chicken Sandwich, The Chicken Plate, Chicha Morada Drink. The chicken was cooked perfectly, as well as the rice but I love the beets, potatoes, peas, carrots,lime,mayo,salt and pepper side dish. I could eat that everyday. This is definitely the best Peruvian food I have ever had. Please do yourself a favor and try El Causa.“

“The service was great, food was brought out quick and all of it was so delicious. Will be back again.“

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

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

“Menu has some good dishes not often found in other dim sum restaurant including suckling pig kitchen special, the pea sprouts with grapefruit peel, the rice roll with bitter melon and shredded chicken. The suckling pig is crispy, the meat is tender. Overall the special dish is ok, the dim sum is ok but not something I would return just for them. The location is excellent. The ambience and the service is good.“

“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 👍“

“Mumbai Chowk serves delicious staples and coastal Indian food! Personally I haven’t had Indian seafood dishes but their Pomfret fish fry thali is one our favorites! the goan fish curry, chicken kolhapuri, and butter chicken are some of other favorites!“

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

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

“My friend Bobby Yang brought me here to this Amazing place. The food was delicious, savory and tasty. The service was quick attentive, prompt even when it was busy. We had a couple different choices of skewers and above all, the star of the show was the bbq fish. If you're looking for authentic Chinese flavors, I recommend this place.“

“We had the most amazing dinner at the restaurant. We were there all weekend. The staff is amazing. The food is out of this world. If you are in the area, you must stop there thank you. I’ve never eaten such an amazing pasta dish and I love Italian food and you guys nailed it and let’s not even start with the lamb chops. Omg. I need to come back again soon.“
