12 Best Seafood Restaurants in Cedar Rapids

“Awesome place for Mexican food, my husband and I have eaten there 3 times this week. A++++++ place to go. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻“

“I recently had a great dining experience at Red Lobster. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. The restaurant has a relaxed, family-friendly environment that makes it a nice place for both casual dinners and special occasions.

The food was excellent and full of flavor. The seafood was fresh and perfectly cooked. One of the highlights of the meal was the famous cheddar bay biscuits—they were warm, soft, and absolutely delicious. The menu offers a wide variety of seafood options, from shrimp and lobster to crab and salmon, so there is something for everyone. The portions were generous, and the dishes were served hot and well presented.

The service was also very good. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Our server checked on us regularly and ensured the dining experience was smooth and enjoyable.

The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, which added to the overall positive experience.

Overall, Red Lobster in Cedar Rapids is a great spot for anyone who enjoys quality seafood, good service, and a welcoming atmosphere. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to visiting again.“

“We got the gator bites, fried shrimp basket, and 2 diff boils - all so good! The fried shrimp wasn’t pre-breaded frozen shrimp like most places. It was fresh and dusted then fried. We will go again!“

“We have been ordering from Panda Lin for years. Absolutely the BEST. Always Hot and Fresh and Large portions. They always remember our order. So friendly. Highly recommend Panda Lin“

“We love this place, Its a hidden gem in a stripe mall. You would never think such a good super nice, clean restaurant would be in there. We Live in Waterloo so this is our treat when we come to Cedar Rapids. The service here is always fantastic! The food is so good and you get nice size portions, for me they are actually huge because I don't eat much. The rolls are to die for and I personally love their salads. I like the small croutons they use, so much easier to eat. I actually think they would do much more business if they had their own stand a lone restaurant.“

“big space! when i went it was completely empty, lots of seating options, tvs, and a bar area as well. ordered wings for app which were good and then a seafood boil with crab shrimp sausage egg potato and corn and cajun seasoning it was sooooo good! very flavorful everything seemed good quality and taste, took a bit to be ready but worth the wait! the only thing that was unfortunate was they said they didn’t have the shell breaking tools yet they had ordered them but they were still on the way so we had to use forks but made it work :,) overall great experience pricing was decent too, will be back again!“

“Excellent food. Excellent service. Highly recommend u trying it out👍“

“Highly recommend this fine dining experience. Calamari appetizer, 8 ounce filet, bacon wrapped asparagus, all perfectly cooked to order. Filet cut and seasoning were exquisite, cooked perfectly medium rare. Service was attentive but not overbearing, ie perfect! A memorable fine dining experience in the heart of the city.“
