50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Selbyville

“We always go to Catch 54 when at the beach. The food is amazing every single time, the service is great, and it’s just a wonderful atmosphere. I could not recommend Catch 54 enough! If there was only one restaurant that I was eating at while at the beach, it would be Catch 54!“

“Great service, great drinks, great food!“

“Our family loves Rippons! We live locally and have supported many local businesses for steamed crabs. We have found that Rippons has the best steamed crabs! Last weekend we ordered a bushel of crabs, all were heavy, full and fresh, not one had a “paper shell” or mushy. If you have not tried Rippons for your seafood, it is well worth your business. **The Gates Family**“

The food and drinks were amazing and our waiter was awesome and patient as we dealt with our kids 🩷 10/10 would go here again!“

“Great place to Deana with“

“Big Fish Grill is one of our favorites at the beach! The food is always excellent, as it was this time around. The chicken carbonara, surf & turf, and charcoal shrimp were delicious meals that our family enjoyed. In addition to the great food, our service was the best I can remember. Robbin, our server, was attentive to our needs, bringing our daughter extra lemons and getting the kitchen to do her grilled shrimp without the "spices". She was so pleasant and as our daughter stated, "she's the best server ever"! We'd agree. Wonderful spot, wonderful food, wonderful service!“

“Perfect meal. Perfect service. Couldn’t ask for more. Clean, quick, tasty, selection, service. It was all phenomenal. Good price and great people. Host at front door great! Waitress Tiffany awesome. Bartender drinks perfect. Owners Matt and Brooke so nice. Great experience. Def on my fav list“

“We have been going to OC every July for 7+ days for decades & happened upon The Lobster Shanty last year. We know most of the great dining spots in OC but we were so happy to have found this place!! Great food & the Quahog & Scallop Chowdah is absolutely delicious!! We came from the ferry straight to The Lobster Shanty! Our waiter Vinny was the best!! Such a nice young guy, very attentive, quick, & super helpful with our questions about crabbing! He is the best! We’ll be back during our stay so I can have your awesome Lobster Roll 😋(& I can’t pass on that Chowdah!) ~The Murphy’s ~ Greenwood Lake, NY“

“We heard our favorite bartender Jen Lowe was back on Wednesdays night so we booked and extra night to be able to stop by the Shark to say Hello. Happy hour at the Shark is our favorite place to go while visiting the Ocean. This was night number 3 for us this trip and as always the food was delicious maybe better than in years past. Always fresh served hot and always with a warn friendly smile. It’s always good to go the a place that’s has a feel like “Cheer’s “ atmosphere. Where they greet you like family and make sure you leave happy and looking forward to your next visit. So visit the Shark the best food in all of Ocean City.“

“Always stop on our way into OC and first night is feast night. OUTSTANDING crabs as always!“

“Barrett was our server. She is the best .we had crab cake and ahi tuna food was delicious. The corn on the cob was fantastic“

“The service was great, the food was great, period. Other places should take notes, this is how an oyster fritter sandwich is done. It was light and crispy with plenty of oysters. The fritter takes up the whole slice of bread. This sandwich is a good deal at $12. I have to warn you though, get there early, they sell out pretty quickly and when you try one, you will understand why. If you love oysters, give this place a try. You won't regret it.“

“Waiter was awesome. Kept up on drinks and food. Very attentive.“

“Today was our first visit. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. The restaurant was very clean and nicely decorated. My husband and his sister both got seafood and said it was fantastic!!!! My grilled chicken salad was very good! Our son loved his chicken tenders and applesauce. I would definitely recommend Waterman's. We will definitely be back next year when we come down for vacation. 👍“

“Amazing food, amazing service, and the price was well worth it! Don’t sleep on this place! 🦀🤍“

“Absolutely amazing! I sent my 2 sons who are 16!! They had a blast! The crew was so helpful and kept checking on my boys! Captain Chris was so nice and kind! The 2 Mates Philomena and Steve were great and kept making sure the boys were ok and kept helping them as needed! They will definitely go again!!!!! Such a great experience for them!!!“

“Oyster Rockefeller and bacon wrapped scallops were the best! The swordfish mashed potatoes and green beans was a banger too. So glad we stopped here on our last night. Everything was so delicious!“

“Cedar Land & Sea Kitchen is the best kept secret in the Eastern Shore. The bar is also fantastic.“

“We stopped at Reel Inn on a whim because the weather was too beautiful not to sit outside, and it ended up being our favorite meal of the trip! Tucked bayside in the Harbour Island Association complex, the vibe was lowkey with a gorgeous view. Our server Natalie was super friendly, and everything we ordered was excellent, the mozzarella sticks were classic but perfectly cooked, the Assawoman combo (scallops, shrimp, and tuna bites) was outstanding, the chicken sandwich had amazing sauce, the fries were hot, the coleslaw was delicious, and the drinks were great. Truly a wonderful night, and we’d absolutely go back.“

“My husband and I had the pleasure of dining here as we were a Veteran family invited to Bethany Beach with Operation SEAS the Day. Words can’t express our gratitude of the wonderful dinner that we had. The outdoor patio is beautiful and romantic. We both ordered the ribeyes and they were delicious, juicy, and tender. The crab dip was the best I have ever eaten. We loved the cream of crab and French onion soups. The servers were friendly and took very great care of us. This restaurant is must if you are in town, we will definitely come back when we return to Bethany Beach.“

“Our server, Madison, took on our large party of 14 for a special occasion. From start to finish she made sure the details were seen to despite a full restaurant and a hiccup in seating. She carefully orchestrated each person's meal down to last minute changes and boxed desserts to go. She turned what could've been a disastrous evening into a wonderful and smooth dinner party. Many of our party had never tried Carrabba's and left excited to visit again. Thank you Madison and staff!“
