50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Midlothian

“This was my first time to a Sharks Fish & Chicekn, and I wasn’t sure what to get.
At first I thought I’d get shrimp, but I decided I wanted fish. Then it was a question of a fish burger or a fish sandwich. I asked the two young adults I saw working, what kind of fish, and they said catfish. I had never had catfish before, but I decided to try it and I’m glad I did. I let them decide between the burger or sandwich, and the woman said burger because she liked the bun.
So, I ordered a fish burger with everything, which ended up being a filet broken in half with a slice of cheese, lettuce, tomato, and mayo.
It was made fresh to order and tasted great!!

The breading was crunchy, and the fish was perfectly cooked, not overdone. Their catfish was very mild, which I’m happy about. Most of the flavor came from the breading and the mayo based sauce.

They also gave me fries to try. These are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. They are thicker than most place’s fries, almost like steak fries, but they are battered rather than having skin on them. I enjoyed them.

All in all, I’m thrilled to have stopped by and given this place a try. I will be back to try more.“

“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!“

“The staff makes you feel like family every time you go there. The food is amazing also and they always know how to cook my filet just right as a lot of places either under or over cook it. Mr. Benny's is old school and we love it! It's a treat when we go there.“

“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.“

“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 Crab Bagz is a must-visit! The staff specifically Aireiun was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming.

I highly recommend The Crab Bagz if you’re looking for a great dining experience with great flavors and great customer service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“omg the shrimp is fantastic“

“Best place to purchase fresh fish. Oh, and don't let the crowd fool you those fishermen and cashier will get you out of there very, very quickly. I love shopping at Market Fisheries on 71st and State. Thanks Market Fisheries for serving me and my family. Thank You la“

“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!!“

“My favorite for fried shrimp!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
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 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.“

“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! 😋😋“

“Fist timer. The Buffalo sauce is perfect. Just enough to make sweet beads on my forehead. The fries are good too. My wife had the Tilapia it was lightly breaded. It takes a little longer to cook than the chicken.“

“We have been enjoying the Dancing Marlin for years and they never disappoint. The friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable staff always gets the job done right. I have dined in many times and have catered several events as well. Most recently I took advantage of the Thanksgiving Feast to take home and prepare for my family. It was delicious and easy to prepare with Chef JR's instructions. I truly appreciate the thought put into each dish. The flavor profiles went together harmoniously! I also love the fact that the meals are made gluten free, from scratch with the freshest ingredients available. The Dancing Marlin takes pride in what they do and it shows.“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“Very nice place with great service 👍“

“I’m not sure what they frying they chicken in but it’s GREEEAAATTT every time!!! I always have to have extra EXTRA LEMON PEPPER when I go elsewhere but not here!!!! Man they chicken hit the spot every time. And litters not forget the amazing cashier Deb she’s such a sweet lady that greets you with plenty of smiles

“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“

“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“

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

“Went in today and got a large order of catfish steaks. They were cut in half the long way to cut the meat down and fried hard as if there were meat on them. The mild sauce was in a sample cup and the price were higher! Lost a customer today! Never going back!“

“Friendly service and the most incredible chicken I’ve ever had. Highly recommend!“

“Not going to lie.. hands down one of the best Sharks Chicken I’ve ever visited. Fresh Food, Great Seasoning, Fried to perfection and they also have a Sauce Bar (Get as many mild or hot sauce as needed). The lemon pepper is an add because, it’s Sharks but, you wouldn’t miss it!

Don’t forget to call in because, everything is made to order.“
