50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Saint John

“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!“

“Restaurant is nice. Food is overpriced. Filets were tough and the yellow sauce on the steaks was nasty. Last time for me.“

“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!“

“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!“

“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 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“

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

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

“Had never eaten here before attending a memorial lunch for a family member yesterday.Wonderful buffet,many choices-we had perch,beef and roasted chicken.Fresh veggies,good salad,roasted redskins,excellent rolls and very good ice cream for dessert.Table service was excellent,our waitress was friendly and professional,and we did not feel rushed(you know how people linger to chat at gatherings like this) .I highly recommend this venue and will be trying their restaurant again.Also had very clean bathrooms! Located in the Innsbruck Country club.“

“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.“

“Nice place, great atmosphere and friendly staff.“

“Absolutely loved my food so fresh and so tasty“

“Amazing! Went for our first time last night and I’m ready to make this a weekly dinner!“

“delicious and great environment.“

“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 😉!!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Love the sweet sauce! Very Good!“

“This was my second time enjoying the wing lunch special. The owner was sitting there while the cashier rung my order up. She asked was i a reward member. I said No. The owner said the first time you came no one asked for your number. I said No. She said you get a free Kool aid for that. I was sold after that because I appreciate her customer service and how she pay attention. Some of these establishments dont give you anything for an inconvenience. The wings are nice size and seasoned well. I have absolutely no complaints. The lemon cake is DELICIOUS FYI!!! I will definitely be returning.“

“Best Gyros in Merrillville! Don't forget the Chilli Cheese Dogs or Pizza Puffs! This is Old School Pirate Food...“

“I had the Juneteenth Grilled Pineapple bowl special.(grilled: pineapple chunks, rice, yellow & red bell pepper, & chunks of chicken, topped with sour cream served inside 1/2 pineapple rind. Um,um, very flavorful and good. I also had the lunch special Fried pork chops, cornbread dressing, cranberry sauce &“

“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!“

“I love Arrenello's pizza! To me and my family it is the best pizza. I've been getting it for over 25 years and it still tastes great each and every time!“

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

“Great fast food, especially for an area with very few options. They're always fast and usually very fresh. Definitely ask for their lemon pepper, especially on the fries! It's not the regular spice, and it's really delicious on fried stuff.

Parking: Only a few spots directly in front, but they basically share a parking lot with a grocery store, so there's plenty of parking close enough.“

I was positively surprised, the food was amazing good and the service was very nice and accommodating. I really don’t know why this place is so underrated.“
