Seafood Restaurants near Chicago Ridge

“This is the best place for Chinese food! They give you such huge portions and for the price you can’t beat it! The food is always extremely hot and you can tell they make it all fresh! Me and my family have been going here for awhile now and never had a complaint! I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Great food and great service thank you Austin for your attentive service“

“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 😆“

“Came to S2 today for the jerk Turkey legs!! We love this meal so much! I’m also trying their red velvet cheesecake“

“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.“

“Food was great and the paper and carrots were fantastic. I'll definitely be back again“

“Travis was our server. He did an excellent job thoroughly explaining to our first time guest, Frankie's restaurant history. He explained the menu, family recipes, and homemade pasta. Service was great, he gave us time to catch up with our guests.“

“The food was delicious!!!“

“So, this was my first time and my parents were with me. The place is cute, the seafood was so delicioso, flavorful, and fresh. Our server, Rosa, was attentive and friendly. They were busy, so you know people love the food. Great overall experience.“

“Tried the Oak Park location on a Wednesday night. It was FANTASTIC! I got a pound of Alaskan King crab legs, and while they didn’t come with crab crackers, we only had a little trouble breaking the meat out. Phenomenal crab legs. They came with perfectly seasoned red potatoes and corn on the cob. My partner ordered (fried) shrimp tacos and could not stop raving about them. The shrimp was very fresh. We also ordered fresh cut fries and they were outstanding, though they could use a bit more seasoning. But extra seasoning was brought upon request. The owner, Shawn, brought out the food, was attentive to our needs, and even struck up a friendly conversation as we left. Fantastic decor/theme, friendly staff and exceptional service! 10/10, and we will definitely be back. Thank you for a great dinner! Two dinners, since I had leftovers!“

“I ordered the lamb chops called in to ask what comes with the meal was told a grilled tomato and grilled onion which did not come with mine for some strange reason $28 I should have gotten everything anyway I can say that it was seasoned well however meet was a little chewy could have been more tender perhaps cooked a bit longer rice was good restaurant smelled like fish but I guess it's a seafood restaurant so I digress not the greatest but not bad“

“Possibly the best fried shrimp I've ever had. You can taste the difference that these are wild Gulf shrimp; they are tender and juicy. Literally no one in Chicago is better and I've been to A LOT. And, I don't think anyone is cheaper!

Also this place is clean! Doesn't smell like oil, doesn't smell like seafood; you can trust what you're getting is clean.“

“Food was over all nice tasting, service was good too. Bread could have been warmer,. Baklava, fillet mignon kabab entrée and hummus were fresh and delicious. Entrées need homemade sauces and not commercial hot sauce or Sriracha sauce. My tabbouleh had gravels in it, could not eat it.“

“Best food and very clean! I highly recommend 👍👍👍“

“First off, the vibe of this place is top notch! The drinks are AMAZING & THE FOOD IS TOP TIER!!!!!!!! I wish Arenas was closer to me or I'd be here all the time! The service is also a cherry on top! If you have never been- GOOOOO!!!!!!“

“omg the shrimp is fantastic“

“They have a LONG menu. Everything is have tried is good but I can't get enough of the Beef Melt. The meat has so much flavor and is a big sandwich. The ladies that work here are always friendly and get you in and out quickly. OH YEAH the prices are so low it's like they're giving food away..lol!! I found this place my accident and glad I did now I can't stop going.“

“muy buen servicio y la comida muy buena“

“The BEST Chili Rellanos I've had in a long time! yummy 😋. The skinny margaritas aren't bad either. A MUST visit Restaurant. Thank you for living up to and beyond my expectations.“

“My family and I have been going there for about 40 years now!!! The best and freshest fried to order!!!!!!“

“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 ❤️“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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!“

“Ordered a sm catfish dinner was definitely a hit a the j*** spot next door had the perfect sides to go with the fish I ate some last night the rest this morning now I'm On my way back to see if they are consistently delicious add on insta“

“The night before our wedding, we brought our parents out for a nice, quiet dinner before the wedding festivities. I dropped a note in the reservation system about the special occasion and appreciated the recognition from the staff with a nice note, little sign, and a rose!

The food also never disappoints, we’ve tried steak, salmon, salad, sides… everything’s always been fantastic!!“

“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“

“su deliciosa comida y buenos precios“

“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“

“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! 😋😋“

“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.“

“the salmon is fresh and delicious but too much salt i usually like salt but the cook needs too go easy on the salt and the shrimp and grits had too much salt.“

“Muy rica la comida 💯 me encanto“

“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!“

“I've said it before, if you find that one or two items they fix well. Keep buying them. They have the combo of Catfish and Shrimp I always get. Service is quick when you call in, the space is clean but 76th can have it's moments. That's anywhere. Call in and Drive off.“

“Fabuloso el servicio y la comida tiene un excelente sabor en sus platillos. Definitivamente recomendable para comer con la familia.“

“Love this place. Food is delicious 😋“

“I’ve been going there for many years.
Great food great service very consistent the consume is the best in Chicago ? there drinks such as cazuela de tequila or cantaritos are amazing. Overall 10/10 estilo Jalisco Mexico

Parking: Big parking lot !!“

“I ordered the crab fried rice and they put a spoon full on it. They should be ashamed for sending this out.“

“Food here is phenomenal and the prices you can’t beat. Where else can you get good clean quality food but here.“

“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.“

“Today was my first time visiting this restaurant. I must say, the service was EXCELLENT, expedient and the food (shrimp and calamari) was absolutely fantastic! I think that I will try the salmon next time.“

“Food and service were fantastic. We were thrilled to find this place open after 11PM. Our flight was late, and my coworker and I had to drive two hours before arriving at our hotel. Starving and desperate, we found this food joint about to close but they graciously let us eat inside, serving us the best food ever!

The staff didn't rush us or even hint at kicking us out like they do in NY or NJ. The food was absolutely delicious. I got the King Nachos, and my coworker got the fried catfish. Plus, two iced teas for a total of $36. A fair price for a meal that saved us from gnawing on the hotel’s pillows!

Now, the area is a bit sketchy. We, the only two people in business suits, definitely stood out like sore thumbs. Lol. After we finished, the staff politely closed up shop. Thanks again, folks, for the great service!

Parking: Plenty of parking in front of store“

“Best sharks on the planet hands down!!! Fish and chicken always 8/10 comes out really crispy and flavorful their garlic and lemon pepper is perfection other places the blend isn’t right either to lemony or garlicky but hands down best sharks on planet earth second best sharks is the one in blue island“

“Very nice place with great service 👍“

“I can't get enough of the yummy chicken pad thai!“

“A classic restaurant in Chicago. Always great service“

“Best Chicken and Fish you will ever eat. VERY reasonable prices. Family owned“

“Great food! My friend and I went for a quick bite to eat before going home. This place hit the spot. The guy taking our was good, and he gave us recommendations and explained the menu. We ordered wings, tenders, shrimp, and fries with some canned drinks. It's not a fancy food spot, but if you're hungry and want something to satisfy you, I recommend coming here.“
