50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hillside

“The food is always delicious, and the drinks are fun. I could hang out on the patio for hours. Emilio comes out to make sure everyone is happy. Just a very special place.“

“The food was okay, but it definitely could be better 🤔. The sauce felt like it was missing something, not quite hitting the mark 😕. Some of the veggies, like corn 🌽 and broccoli 🥦, were overcooked, which was a bit disappointing. Also, heads up—it’s really buttery 🧈, so if you’re watching that, keep it in mind. Overall, not terrible, but there’s definitely room for improvement in flavor and prep.“

“Daily specials, clean, good parking, and very friendly staff“

“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.“

“Joe's has always been an excellent experience no matter the location. The menu has always been just what you want and body desires. The service and atmosphere is humanly alive and felt with great energy. In my twenty years or so of paying for my wrongdoings I've never had a bad experience at or from Joe's. Congratulations 🎉 on serving tummies for over 20 years.“

“I had an exceptional birthday experience at this restaurant. They decorated my table with a handwritten note and even gave me a complimentary glass of champagne. The food was delicious and filling, all I was able to get through was an appetizer and the ambiance was great. The waiters, owner, and staff were incredibly nice and welcoming. I would definitely be back soon and highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Really like the 3 course "Prix fix" even though there are some aditionalcharges for some elections. Valet parking was appreciated, Well decorated, good selection. One weak spot, and is common in many restraints, are the Hostesses. This is your first impression with any restaurant, yet they place little emesis on training the staff on proper customer service. Look at people when talking to them, not your computer. There should be better communication and interaction with the front desk. Otherwise, Service was excellent, Food was well prepared and presented, prices were fair.“

“If you’re in Chicago and looking for amazing food, S2 Grills Chicago is definitely a spot you need to check out. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by extremely friendly staff who made us feel welcome right away. The service started off great and stayed that way the entire time. We were seated very quickly and didn’t have to wait long at all. The food came out fresh and hot, and no joke; everything we tried was extremely delicious. We decided to try a little bit of everything so we could really experience the menu. We ordered the oxtails, Alfredo pasta, lamb chops, fried catfish, rib tips, baked mac & cheese, and candied yams, and every single dish was on point. The flavors were incredible and everything was cooked perfectly. Another thing that really stood out was how clean the restaurant was. Even the bathrooms were spotless, which always says a lot about a place. Great food, great service, and a clean environment; you can’t ask for much more than that. Hands down a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend S2 Grills Chicago if you’re in the area.“

“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.“

“Outstanding experience!!! Can not say enough about the entire staff from the front of the house to the back. Attentive and friendly. Food was excellent! Made our dining experience special and something we will continue to talk about! Excellent job to the entire team and I can't wait to come back!“

“This was our second time dining at Positano’s and it was just as fabulous! The food here is superb, the wait staff are very attentive and we love the photos on the wall! The Seabass was to die for and the grilled seafood appetizer was divine! Our only regret is that we live in New York and cannot be frequent patrons of this wonderful establishment! Mille Grazie!!“

All three were really delicious. The sauces on the shrimp and chicken were outstanding. Hector was my waiter, and I appreciate his excellent service. I always look forward to dining at Donna G's because this restaurant never disappoints.“
