50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Bridgeview

“We had a good experience while celebrating a friend's birthday. The staff adeptly managed our large group with grace and humor. The courses were well timed, the perfect temperature, aromatic and flavorful. Our only minor complaint was the 1 hour wait to be seated, and they don't take reservations. Perhaps they can offer tea to those who are waiting? As they grow, a separate prayer space would be a welcome addition.“

“Deliciosa comida muy bien servicio 🦐🦐🦐“

“Mannnnn when I tell you the best experience by far! The Bartender was amazing the drinks was made impeccable! We went today around lunchtime and we also had a great lady waitress she was amazing as well,Gave us information on the food we was ordering…..And I’ve been a Chef for well over 15 years! And I was very impressed! Photos in the comments 😆“

“We had an excellent lunch today. The jambalaya was very good, and tasted like we've had in New Orleans. The blackened grouper sandwich was fantastic. The grouper was very fresh and blackened perfectly. Very good service. Will be returning soon!“

“Today was my first time there. The food is delicious my kids love it but I don’t feel I had the great service. First, we didn’t get the napkins and utensils on time but way after the food got there. A drink spilled on me (our fault) which made me realized there was no napkins provided, by the time we found the lady for napkins I was soaking wet. Then we were about to start eating and my children needed a fork, well no fork was provided. We ordered 3 seafood boils, no utensils for that were provided neither. My husband ordered an extra drink, never was it brought to us. I’m happy my kids enjoyed it, but we were not that pleased as we saw others being treated differently. Not sure if we will be returning.“

“This is a cute spot. I like the decor. The waitress was nice. We were celebrating a birthday and she was very accommodating with playing happy birthday and bringing out the slice of cake that I purchased. I didn't like the dish that I ordered (shrimp, lobster and crab pasta)! The pasta was extremely salty and the sauce was thick! I sent it back the first time and that provided another one that turned out to be just as bad. It was still super thick but just bland this time. Needless to say I didn't eat it. I just requested a to go tray and gave to a person on my way home who asked me to buy them some food. I said “I'm so glad you asked, here you !” It was my first time visiting this establishment and I won't be returning. However, I wish them nothing but the best.“

I came before they were closing and he took care of me , I absolutely love JJ Fish & Chicken! Every time I go, I order the chicken tenders, and they are always fresh, hot, and perfectly seasoned. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their food. The customer service is excellent—everyone is friendly, welcoming, and quick to help. It’s hard to find a spot that consistently delivers great food and service, but JJ Fish & Chicken nails it every time. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious food and a great experience!“

“Muchas Felicidades a el Paiza Restaurante, me encanto la comida muy rico y el servicio de todo el personal muy amables y el ambiente muy familiar y me encanto Noemi Arteaga , muy hermosa como canto ❤️“

“Overall the food was ok. I had the red snapper with the butter garlic sauce which was really good but the sides weren't so appetizing. A bit pricey but not horrible as well.

Kid-friendliness: It's definitely a place for children.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheel chair accessible as well“

“Food arrived hot and was delectable! Everything was really flavorful. Portions are definitely worth it for the price! Will definitely be ordering again, might even consider a possible catering order if they do that! 😋😋“

“I’m from the coast and all my life I’ve loved sea food. My wife took me here for Father’s Day and I gotta tell you, it did not disappoint.
The wait was reasonable being a special day, they give you a cup of warm consome while you wait for your food. We had the veracruzana fillet, shrimp empanadas and a shrimp/octopus cocktail and the taste was just exquisite. It reminded me of my hometown“

“Though not super busy, we visited early so it made for super fast service and really good Mariscos. The decor was great and the food had really good flavor. The drinks were perfect as they were not light but not exagerated, just right. I will be returning as I have to share one of the big purse drinks!

Parking: The parking spots could be bigger and it might get difficult on super busy days but it is ok if you park on the street.“

“Checked out Mariscos El Veneno in West Lawn—spent around $30 on camaron sarandeados, spicy crab, and BYOB michelada setup. Seafood flavors were solid and portions were hearty. Cozy spot with ocean-blue walls and live music—got a bit loud, but adds to the vibe. Staff brought a complimentary ceviche tostada, which was a nice touch. Overall a fun night, would totally go back.“

“Muy rica la comida 💯 me encanto“

“Beautiful ambiance, attentive, friendly service and good food. Perfect place for family, friends and date nights. One of the Historic buildings in Oak Park.“

“I sat and observed the guy answering phones, taking orders in-person, and remembering everything. He is a phenomenal multitasker and his memory is amazing while balancing so many tasks. If he isn’t the owner, he sure knows how to run a business. I’m rooting for you buddy! Sincerely, the six wing with mild sauce on everything lady. Thank you for your excellent service!“

“From the minute we walked in everything was wonderful. Our server was friendly and beyond accommodating. As was the chef when we requested a dish not on the menu. The food was exceptional. The best Chinese food we’ve ever had in the suburbs. Definitely compares to Chinatown.“

“Madison’s always exceeds my expectations! The wait staff are attentive and friendly. The latest server that we had named Colleen was great! The Mile high meatloaf, Fish tacos and the Walleye are just a few items that I recommend! I’ve been here many times and I will return many times!“

“Up until now, I have never wanted to try frog legs until I tasted theirs. Took my Mom to lunch and tried one of hers which turned into a few and now I'm hooked. They were moist, juicy on the inside and crunchy on the outside. Very fresh and well sized. Didnt too much care for the chicken wing zings. They were too salty although fresh and crispy. Also had the seafood salad which was good. Been back again for the frog legs. FYI it is CASH ONLY. Great customer service which was a plus for me. So I didn't mind coming back considering I live no where near the restaurant.“

“Britt, our server was amazing. Britt worked the front dining area and accommodated our large party in the tear dining area. Britt never missed a beat with any of our requests. I'll definitely, request her service again and again as well as refer my family and friends to Ms. Britt ((*_*))“

“In the past I was not really a Jerk food type of guy, but I love this place. The food was fresh and seasoned just like I like it. The overall atmosphere was great as well. Super clean sitting area with quiet music and television while you wait for your food. I've been there twice already, and will definitely be going back. It'll be one of my regular spots for lunch or dinner.“
