50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Highland

“We have Been at Theo’s at least 20 times in the last 3 years. The first time was the best and last night was the last. Food was a lot better 3 years ago. The staff seemed like they cared about you buying the right or the best value, Last night we were ripped off. David was our server. Telling how great the specials were with out telling us the price. My wife wanted seafood not steak. So we ordered her the seafood crab legs, lobster tail and shrimp. Crab legs tasted like they were frozen for a long time, the lobster was Tuff. Shrimp was good in garlic butter. I had a steak. With mushrooms. Do your self a favor ask what the price for any specials . DON’T BUY ANYTHING WITHOUT KNOWING THE PRICE. SeaFood Special $175.66 Who the hell charges this for a pound of crab legs and a lobster tail? Never again! Buyer beware!“

“Just finished an early dinner as my first experience with Cajun Crab House. It was outstanding! I had 6 raw oysters along with the Deep Fried Catfish and my son had a Crab Cake appetizer and Shrimp linguine. Some of the best seafood I’ve had in a while. Even better than the food was the service. I have problems with spicy food due to chemo and Ciara, our server, went out of her way to check the spice level of the food I had ordered. Several trips to and from the kitchen and I picked the Catfish…..perfect choice. I have no problem with anything. Was one of the better experiences I’ve had“

“We were a group of 9; 6 adults & 3 children looking for a more sit-down place to eat when the owner talked us into staying telling us we would not be disappointed, and we were not. Their menu had a huge variety of food to choose from, and all of us thought the food was great! I had French toast, hash browns & sausage. My husband had an awesome shrimp omlette that had more shrimp on it than anywhere else we have ever eaten that put shrimp in its breakfast. And even thought it was all packagesd as take out, there were three tables available to sit and eat. It worked for us! Great job S&G! It's a well-earned 5 star review!“

“Our meal was delicious, server, Alex, was attentive and helpful, a pleasant dining experience“

“Great food and great service, real clean place and friendly employees, they are always in a great mood“

“I was recommended by some locals and it did not disappoint. I tried jumbo shrimp which had really good size and very juicy. I also tried medium Cajun shrimp, which I personally would like to see the jumbo shrimp in this seasoning. Overall crazy good. Cash only makes it harder for a quick last meal. But good over“

“Sharon our hostess was outstanding, meal was great! Holly you owe Sharon a steak! We had a great time!!!!;“

“I go every Wednesday for the 1 pound shrimp and I have to say they are the best tasting shrimp I've had this far. The size of the shrimp are huge with a nice flaky batter that gives a flavorful taste. I have my family going there as well for great tasting seafood!!!“

“Love they tastey foodstuffs“

“Don't have all items on menu. Wondering how they stay in business.“

“Veal Marsala Alfredo spaghetti soup salad rolls butter absolutely delish, a really good restaurant!!!“

“Just delicious! not cheap so if you are (cheap), probably not for you.“

“Love the jumbo shrimp & crab cakes“

“Their food and customer service is amazing! I would definitely recommend this location. I’ve been to plenty locations and by far this ones the best. 😋“

“I saw video on tik tok, so I went. I got the shrimp and the perch just like the guy on tik tok. The shrimp were really good, not a lot of heavy batter, but that perch had no seasoning at all. I was highly disappointed with the perch. Will I drive to Gary again for it,probably not. You go and get those shrimp. Service is good and the sitting area is clean, and you dont wait long for your food.“

“I love the food here it is sooooo good 😊 and service is great nice friendly people“

“We stopped in for our first time tonight and will definitely be back. They have a full menu or you can visit on Sunday for the buffet. If you're not familiar with Filipino cuisine do go for the buffet, you'll get to try so many delicious dishes!“

“I had the chicken sandwich with fries and it was cooked perfectly. I've had a lot of disappointing chicken sandwiches over the years but this one was hands down one of the best I've had. And they gave me extra mayo on the side without even asking for it. They ain't playin' here. The chicken gizzards are also really good!“

“After having a disappointing experience at another restaurant, we called Casa De Luz to see if they could accommodate our party of 13. From the moment we walked in, we were warmly welcomed, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. The service was top-notch—attentive, friendly, and efficient. We had no issues with seating, and our orders were taken promptly without feeling rushed. The food? Absolutely amazing! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell they take pride in the quality of their dishes. On top of the great food and service, the prices were very reasonable, making the entire experience even better. We couldn’t have asked for a more enjoyable dining experience. If you’re looking for a place that values its customers and serves fantastic food, Casa De Luz is the place to go! We’ll definitely be back!“

“My shrimp meal was done promptly and Rick was especially informative“

“I ordered the lobster tail, crab legs and shrimp combo (steamed not fried) and it was fantastic. It came with two corn and one potato. I believe it was seasoned with old bay and the garlic butter was great. The hush puppies are perfect. Crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside.“

“Celebrates my husband’s birthday here. Hadn’t been here before. Both the food and service were excellent. Shout out to Scott and the serving team. Thank you will be back.“

“I was looking through there menu items and it was really big potions besides that I really like their Kool-aid drink. I will be coming back to No Cobbs for more food“

Kid-friendliness: Always nice to my kids!“

“Nice place, great atmosphere and friendly staff.“

“It's not in the best location but it is one of the better options for fried chicken wings and HUGE chicken tenders!! The inside of the building is older but it is always clean inside. It's very convenient because if I need to go to Aldi across the street while my order is being prepared I can. I will go out of my way for Good Fresh Food. Do not forget the lemon pepper 😉!!“

“I was passing by on my way to Indiana and I saw Shrimp Xpress and decided to stop by. The fried shrimp came in a paper bag with a tray and they were fresh, hot and delicious! They came with a nice tangy sauce, and I ordered a drink. My shrimp were great the texture was nice and they were not fried too hard and it had a nice batter. What you see photos of is one pound of delicious shrimp. It is an outdated drive thru, and you are ready to quickly pull out once you get your order. The staff was nice and friendly and my order was prepared in a reasonable amount of time. The reason for my 3 stars is because of the time it took them to acknowledge me when I arrived to the speaker. The reason for my rating of the atmosphere was just the layout of the drive thru.“

“Came in and the place was completely empty, sign said "seat yourselves" it felt kind of awkward but someone came out to greet us a few seconds later. Staff was super friendly and nice! I brought my grandmother and she wanted to split her meal with someone who wasn't able to come to the restaurant in person, so they brought out half of her meal and waited until we were almost done with the other half freshly made and packaged! Lake perch was great! Not like other restaurants that try to serve ocean perch as lake perch. The Nashville hot chicken strips were a little disappointing they didn't have any heat to them, but the chicken was cooked perfectly and the breading was really good so it made up for it! Mac n cheese was delicious, I was even impressed with the fries! None of them were soggy or over salted! I'm sad I couldn't have tried them sooner!“

“Never had a bad dish at Livios til tonight. We each had fried perch, the waitress commented how big it was. I ate one piece and couldn’t eat anymore. Had a funny taste to it. Hope we don’t get sick!“

“The staff is always friendly and service is never long, especially when you phone ahead. Our food was hot and fresh, the fries were perfect! They have a few lunch specials that are worth the price. A shrimp po'boy that's really good! Tonight we had the 3 wings and shrimp along with the 3 wings and 3 pieces of fish. Both were delicious. I visit here every few months for all the reasons above.“

“I order 100 Wings 100 Catfish Fillet for my event.OMG! Soooo delicious! As soon as I opened it, everything looked so good. I ordered fish last year. Same thing! The presentation was great. The service was great. I had to call to let them know how pleased I was.“

“An intimate setting for size. I will say their menu is extensive. You could bring a diverse group here and most would find something they wanted to eat. The pizza I had was ok, I have a feeling it would have been better on a larger sized crust. The fettuccine was good enough I suppose but the Alfredo sauce was sweet which wasn't quite my thing. If I could have done it over again I would have ordered something different. The staff was wonderful which I feel like was really the best part of the experience. If you are looking for a location to eat and don't want to get tied into a set menu this place could help you out in a pinch.

Parking: Plenty of parking for the space.“

“Food great, service great. Gratuity of automatic 20% extremely bad.Thats all your waitress will ever make even it she is a over the top waitress or waiter because this is a guarantee gratuity, even if they’re a bad waiter or waiters, this should never happen in any restaurant your waiter or waitress is only worth what they’re worth is. Very disappointed in this restaurant strictly because of their guaranteed gratuity for the waiter waitress no matter how poor they are, and I had a great waitress.“

“We just had dinner at Five Star Thai Cuisine. What a delight! We have tried some of the other Thai places in the area and none hold a candle to this restaurant. Such authentic flavors! We lived in Thailand, and this is like popping into one of the local corner places in Bangkok. We will definitely return!“

“Thank you! Came in tonight and had our favorite crab cake dinner! The tequila sunrise was very very good and it was not weak!! We had a great time, great food and wonderful service!! WE DEFINITELY ARE COMING BACK!!“

“the fish and chicken combo, the grilled fish tacos, and fish sandwich. The rice bowl. The icing on the cake the pineapple creme pie.“

“Our meal was very delicious. Chicken vesuvio, sautéed perch, and linguini with red clam sauce all so good. Thank you for good service too.“

“The staff was excellent. One in particular over me talking about the long john Silver sauce and went in yhe back to make us some. Very clean and fast.
