50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Poway

“our waiter was amazing. food was top notch had crab stuffed shrimp with jalapeño cheese sauce. Get it!!“

“Great service here! A group of us was in for dinner on a week night to celebrate a birthday. The waiter heard and brought out a slice of cake for us! It is not something they usually do, especially Chinese restaurants. The staff was really nice and friendly. Made all the difference between a good dining experience and a great one.

We ordered a few dishes for dinner and had it family style. We like all the dishes we ordered. They were able to make modifications to the dishes. For example we asked for chicken chow fun instead of the usual beef chow fun. No problem!
There are a lot of vegetarian options. It was one of the reasons why we picked this restaurant. One person in our party was a vegetarian, another was gluten free, another doesn't eat beef... there was something for everyone!“

“Food was fresh and delicious“

“We got to eat on the patio, it was wonderful. We had a newborn and 2 year old and it was warm enough to keep them warm. The food was great, our server Maxamillion was friendly and portion sizes were good for the price of food. Would happily come again!“

“Great food! Highly recommend!“

“OMG! THE FOOD IS AMAZING! MY FIRST TIME HERE TODAY! I GOT THE BBQ COMBO AND CRISPY SPAM! THE PORTIONS ARE HUGE! THE MEAT WAS PERFECTLY SEASONED AND TENDER! THESE GUYS ARE 100% TIMES BETTER THAN L&L! THE PRICE IS RIGHT & THE FOOD IS FRESH! MY NEW SPOT! I'M IN LOVE!“

Parking: Some spots very nearby and plenty in the larger attached parking lot.

Kid-friendliness: Family, seating, many food options, chips, salsa bar, lots of drink options, churros.

We were stuffed at the end.“

“JTB. EXELENTE. DEL MAR A SUMESA“

“Heading out to Convoy street, you know what I'm looking for.... solid Mexican cuisine, lol. But no joke, this is one of my new favorite spots in San Diego. Ensenada Fish Taco? it rivals the best spots in town. Quesa taco with fried cheese and shrimp? awesome. Their tortillas are great. Their guacamole is served in a molcajete and super fresh and citrusy. Frijoles, I'm ordering some to go for later. Been twice, will be again. Convoy is my Mexican Hot Spot (not Hot Pot=) They do a taco Tuesday but everything is worth the price all day.“

“Their fries were amazing. There were 4 of us, 2 like seafood and 2 did not- perfect place to go with affordable prices. Burger was juicy and the secret sauce to go with burger- delicious. There service was friendly and gave great recommendations“

“Overall we had a great experience here. We went on a Sunday Evening. We didn't realize the wait would be so long so we didn't get onto the online waitlist until 5:30 which meant our reservation was an hour to an hour and 15mins later. We left a little late and they called us before we got there so we were dropped from the wait list. The good news was once we got there they were accommodating and put us back on the wait list with a short wait. Once there, the wait staff was Extremely attentive, professional and friendly. Food came out reasonably quick. The prices for king crab were $60/lb (too high for us) so we got snow crab for half that ($30/lb) and a seafood boil where you can pick and choose what goes into it (I love that!). Butcher block paper is on the table and you can choose to eat directly off the table which is super fun and my kids absolutely loved it. I only wish they had paper towels instead of napkins at the tables because it's messy. Overall it was super fun and we had a good experience.“

“Service is great. Food is awesome, we even had to order more of the garlic noodles to go!“

“Every time I go to Escondido Surfing I have a great experience and the manager is very personable!!!“

“I'm truly OBSESSED with this place. I find myself craving it ALL the time... even even I've already eaten here twice in the same week!
Choosing from my fave items can be tough, but I can ALWAYS fall back on my go-to Grilled Mahi w sticky white rice 🤤

It NEVER disappoints, even when I eat it 2-3 days after picking it up fresh to-go.

Fish District...
You forever have my heart (and my stomach) 💞“

“Excellent fish items. Fishes are high quality. Grilling is almost perfect. Marinade, especially cajun, is supreme. Portions are sufficient. Service is above board except that ordering is at the counter and not on your table. Overall, a high caliber restaurant.“

“Great JAPANESE Tonkatsu served with shredded cabbage salad just like in Japan“

“Because of my dietary restrictions I always get anxious when going out out of fear of being “ a difficult customer”. However today my mother and I came to this CFG and Joseph was amazing . He allowed us to alter our meals in a way we could still enjoy. I’d recommend this location to anyone wanting a quick and delicious bite with great customer service ! Thank you again Joseph ! ☺️“

“Great food and awesome service“

“Let me tell you why we loved this pokes:

1. They have more than 10 options of proteins and you can choose how many scoops you want. My favorite one is tuna.
2. They have 7 different sauces. I chose Fire Loki and it was on point.
3. They mix the protein with the sauce at the moment they are making the poke.
4. They have 17 toppings. I had all of them in my poke!
5. The food is really fresh.
6. And the guy was really patient with us considering I’m a very indecisive girl…

Thank you!“

“I've only been here once...and I came away VERY impressed...food was VERY tasty and FRESH... service was wonderful and they were so eager to have you enjoy their food. A lovely small neighborhood restaurant. I'll go again!“

“cheese enchiladas to go were very good! Food ready in minutes! good job!“

“My family and I have been dining here almost weekly for the last 7 months. The food is phenomenal. It’s fresh, the dishes are innovative yet they offer traditional rolls. Honestly, their ribeye is my favorite dish. Ask for extra mushrooms and sauce- you’ll thank yourself for it. The owners are working there daily and are the sweetest people. My kids are sushi connoisseurs and have declared this their favorite place.“

“SYDNEY it’s a ROCK STAR! Thanks so much! Busy Day and she was amazing! 🌻“

“Great Food good drinks“

“Extremely clean and generous! Came in for the first time for my lunch break and they did not disappoint. The gentleman at the front served me and gave great recommendations. The pic is me half way through the bowl but the presentation was great too. Would come back again.“

“I don’t usually leave reviews, but I had to after today’s visit. I came in during lunch so it wasn’t too busy, and it looked like they were training new staff. Lacy, our server-in-training with orangeblonde hair, was the first person to ever introduce herself at this store. She introduced herself at the beginning and let us know at the end that if we had a good experience, a review on the establishment would be appreciated so here I am.

She was doing amazing. Super sweet, confident, and honestly just adorable. She had a great sense of humor and kept a smile on whether she was helping guests or talking with her trainer. She even took time to play with the kids at tables and made the whole dining experience feel easy and welcoming.

Beyond that, the whole team worked really well together yesterday. Servers were cleaning, bussing, and setting up tables together. Waters were always filled, sodas refilled without needing to ask, and the food came out promptly. Even with staff in training, things ran smoothly. The food was good. Came out in under ten minutes and it was actually mild this time. The Thai tea is also good here, it’s a bit sweet but nothing out of the ordinary.

I’ve had a few so-so experiences at this location before, but earlier in the day felt like a huge step up. If they keep this kind of service going, the rating here will definitely go up. Coco is known to be busy but service is usually mid.“

“Deliciously flavorful. I ordered hand torned noodles with beef in mild spicy. Has the kick of spice without the stress. I was curious about the pork burger with the white bang - that was good too!

Noodles are soft, fresh, and chewy. Must come again.“

“Amazing food Amazing service. Food was so fresh and delicious.“

“Our favorite place in San Diego for Indian/Nepalese food. The flavors are terrific, no matter the spice level chosen. We try a new dish every time we go. We've never had a dish we didn't like. The lunch specials are a screamin' deal. Wait staff is friendly; only once in a half dozen visits was there a long lag between ordering and serving.“

“Came here for lunch with my mom on a Wednesday. Normally, this place has no parking availability. The place is very small but cozy. But during lunch, there were plenty. Walking in, we were seated right away. You can tell how good a restaurant is when you see most of their customers were Korean. My mom ordered the kimchi jigae. She said the broth was very good but was very disappointed that she only had 1 strip of pork belly in the soup. I ordered the galbitang and it came with 2 large beef ribs with the meat so tender it fell off the bones. The broth was also very good that i finished the broth before the meat and noodles. This is a definite place to go to again and again.“

“Fast service. Fresh Vegetables & delicious foods. Grilled & BBQ Kobe & Pork are to die for. Egg rolls are tops.“

“The server was the only one working but she got our order out fast and was so nice. The food was absolutely delicious.“

“Always a wonderful experience with great food and service! I have loved every thing I’ve tried on the menu. This is our go to place whenever we want tasty and excellent cuisine👏“

“La Casitas Grill and seafood went above and beyond to support a local fundraiser the rice,beans, and fajitas were delicious. We can't thank you enough for not just feeding the community but being part of it. Great food served by wonder people. Thank you again and again.“

“It's a very authentic Mexican restaurant. Although the Roll Taco I ordered was a little tough for my personal taste, the El Patron Burrito was very solid, with plenty of meat, and it was very marinated and delicious! I also especially tried Chimichanga, a dish where meat fillings are wrapped in a roll and deep-fried. The meat inside is just right tender. In addition, this store allows you to pick up different types of sauces, as well as fried chili peppers or green peppers. It is highly recommended to try it!“

“ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเรืออร่อย พนักงานน่ารัก“

“Rubio’s on Clairemont Mesa Blvd in San Diego had some standout flavors. The rainbow shrimp salad and tacos had a delicious pineapple twist in the sauce that really worked. The chicken soup was well balanced and the shrimp tacos hit the mark. Friendly service too.“

“AMAZING FOOD and remind me of HOME❤️“

“Oh my gosh! I FINALLY went here and was not disappointed... I only had both types of dal and a mango lassi ...all were REALLY wonderful and VERY fresh tasting. I will be back!“

“The Best Ever Chinese Restaurant I Have Ever Been To. My Tita's Loved It So Mucho!!!! 5 star Rating“

“Came in when I saw a sign for their lunch special. I enjoyed it. It was the perfect portion. I got the beef garlic and pepper. It came with rice, beef with garlic, cabbage and cilantro, and a vegetable roll. I also got a Thai Tea. I will probably come back and try something else too.“

“super nice place, the food is delicious!!! the attention's nice !!! 👍👍“

“Came here recently with a large group and was very impressed. All the food was delicious and came out very quickly. Excellent dim sum options and dinner dishes. Will come again when I visit again!“

The bar was so pretty.
The best was are bartender.
This will be my new spot!;“

“Big crab legs, big oysters + military discount.“

“This is such a beautiful restaurant. The water scenery is beautiful. Food is delicious, the atmosphere was so cozy and chill. It was worth it to go there. Whenever I am back in California I am going back again.“

“A friend and I decided to try this place for lunch.
The server was Excellent. I think her name was Jenny. My friend had Orange Chicken.
It was a large portion and the lunch came with either Egg Flower soup or Hot & Sour.
Both were very good.
It also came with delicious Egg Rolls, crispy Won Tons as well as steamed or fried rice.
I had Pork Egg Foo Young and it was Excellent.
Hard to find Egg Foo Young on menus.
Extremely clean and pleasant atmosphere.
I can hardly wait to go back and try other items on their large lunch menu.“
