19 Best Seafood Restaurants near Nipomo

“You know when you cant stop talking about how great the food is the place has to be good. And sure enough while staying in Santa Maria for a week I searched up best Thai Restaurants in the area. This restaurant was in the top ten so my mom and I decided to try it. When we arrived the door had a sign that said cash/venmo only accepted. So make sure you have either or as forms of payment. It will be worth it trust me. We were greeted by Jay Nipomo and seated promptly. Impeccable customer service. Met all are needs. Water was filtered, not tap. Always had extra napkins. Ordered the Pad See u with beef, yum salad Ribeye, tom yum soup with chicken, lettuce wrap name sod & crispy rice, chamomile citron tea. Everything is an must try. Served fresh all veggies and meats. I've been to quite a few Thai restaurants and hands down this one is the best that I have tried. You can tell the cook puts their heart and soul in every dish. Delicious! Will definitely return when I visit again. At the completion of our dinner Mr. Jay packed our left overs. He took his time to find out where we were coming from made us feel at home. Thank you so much its rare to have such great service as this.“

“Excellent service and delicious food! We celebrated our 10th Anniversary at Blue Seafood & Grill last week👌🏼😋We will definitely be back soon!“

“muy rica comida y el personal amable“

“Delicious! I had the Mango Caliente sushi roll and OMG it didn't disappoint. My husband had the Mojarra Frita platillo and he really enjoyed it. I think we found our new sushi/mariscos place. The customer service was just as great as their food.“

“Took my mom for lunch. I ordered daily special of lobster chile relleno which came with rice, and it was absolutely delicious. Mom had seafood salad croissant and she loved it. Generous servings and good service. Will definitely be back“

“Emily was our server. She was so sweet and prompt. The atmosphere is very nice and super clean. I ordered the best nachos I've ever had and I'm from San Diego. 😄 Nice to have such a gem of a restaurant so close to home. I will tell my family and friends 🧡
Thanks,Cee“

“Great! We had a wonderful waitress and food was fantastic.“

“Great food Fast service Like eating at my moms Would definitely come back Yum.“

“Came here for lunch today with the Family. We ordered the Tom Yum hotpot, crab fried rice, and Pad Thai. All the foods was so good. On top of that we ordered the mango sticky rice and that bring back some memory. It was so good. It was great talking to the owner Mrs. Boonie. Whether a strong spirit person. Go by and have great food.“

“The food was very good. However, the waitress brought me shrimp soup instead of Siete Mares Caldo. She gladly changed it for Siete Mares and when we were done eating the bill was like $69.00 I ask the waitress why and that it was wrong. She gladly corrected it and it came down to 61 and change. I wasn’t happy because I had added the food that we consumed and it was less than $60. I believe the owner saw me adding and noticed I wasn’t happy so he called the waitress and gave me the new bill for $56.00 I am telling the truth and that is why I gave this restaurant a 5 star because the owner did the right thing, after all said and done. Honesty does pay with good rewards. Thank you owner/manager, we appreciate your honesty and truthfulness. I will recommend everyone to eat here, for all the right reasons. Thank you“

“The food served here never disappoints. It’s always served quickly and is so good. Also, the staff is friendly and helpful🌻“

“My new favorite place. Excellent food,great service.👍🏻😌“

“We have been there a few times and have been satisfied every single time. The tacos are excellent and this last times we also tried the pozole, carne asada ,churros and were very tasty as well.“

“We came for the menudo which was absolutely delicious I only wish it had hominy but it's ok I understand not everyone adds that to the menudo. I also ordered the red chilaquiles with Asada and I was so pleased with the taste of everything. The only thing that would have made it even better was if the tortillas were freshly made.“

“This is my favorite place for my sushi fix. I ALWAYS order the spicy salmon roll TEMPURA! I visit Xin Xin at least once a week. Last week I had a craving and ate there TWICE!! The food is fresh, tasty, and the portions are generous. The restaurant is always clean. However, I rate the service as THE BEST in my book. Regardless of who takes my order, the person is always knowledgeable about the menu and extras and pleasant to talk to. On a recent visit, the sushi master knew my order before I even placed it because I go there so much. That was a great feeling! I hope this business is around for many years and I am doing my part to ensure it!“

“Great food and service was excellent. Highly recommend.“

“Each time I visit the Santa Maria area for work. I make it a point to eat here. I asked for a recommendation for a great Mexican restaurant while visiting the local Lowe’s. Everyone said to come here. I’ve never been disappointed. Great food and service. I was last there in August 2025. They were preparing over 600 tacos for a party. Never missed a beat for the customers dining in. Definitely recommend going there“
