13 Best Seafood Restaurants in Somerville

“Awesome food!! Awesome people! ❤️❤️“

“We loved the food at Celeste, as we do that of La Royal as well. The causa with tuna tartare and mixed ceviche were both excellent, as was the special, seafood soup, more like a cioppino but with a lighter broth and Peruvian flavors. (Lots of bell peppers but you could probably ask for it without them if you wish. For me they were easy to pick out.) It took a while to order but then the food came fast. The cocktails are great and we are usually too full for dessert. Best to avoid the tables by the door on a cold night due to cold air coming in. Look forward to the new place in Boston, too, from the same owners!“

“Wonderful experience on Saturday night with Jessica. She was so friendly and helpful. The food was awesome. Our runner was very friendly too. Everything was just perfect. I usually don't get a coursed/set menu but they had a wonderful option with add ons/upgrades that made it so much fun to splurge. Can't say enough good things about the staff and food. Too bad going out isn't what it used to be in terms of the clientele wearing decent clothes. I'm old school ... no baseball hats or sweatshirts at the table. Have some manners and pride.“

“I love that they have a combo option where you can get Jjajangmyun & Tangsuyuk (sweet and sour fried pork), and the Tangsuyuk was on point. Very crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The Jjambbong was also pretty good and the bowl is really huge. The price is really good compared to the amount of food they give you, and the combo comes at the perfect portion for one person (although it was enough for me to share as well). The Jjajangmyun was good but could use more flavor. Overall, I loved this place and would definitely go again.

Note: you need to ask for a parking permit paper (which the workers will give to you if you ask) to park at the lot behind the restaurant.“

“Not sure if the opinion of a very pasty Mainer counts for much;but the tacos and guacamole were the best we have ever had! Food was great and the service was phenomenal! We had the sweetest waitress! Will be back as soon as possible! ❤️❤️“

“Excellent ambience and the table was prepared nicely to accommodate and engage the kids. Main Lobster meal was excellent. However their signature lobster roll was a disappointment. When we escalated it, explanation was that it was prepared earlier today and that may be the reason. Except the lobster roll and the response, every was outstanding.“

“This local place has delicious food, and has been serving it up for years. it's my go-to for their barbecue chicken (char grilled with a delicious garlicy sauce - not your usual American style barbeque!), and their beans are excellent.“

“Elegant, thoughtful menu and wine pairings. Highly recommend trying the themed menu offerings. Looking forward to my next visit!“

“I had an outstanding experience at Salt & Stone in Assembly Row, and I have to give a special shout-out to Brenda, our waitress, who truly made the night exceptional.

From the moment we sat down, Brenda was warm, attentive, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. She guided us through the best dishes, made spot-on recommendations, and somehow anticipated everything we needed without ever interrupting the flow of our conversation.

Her timing was perfect, her service was smooth and friendly, and she made us feel genuinely taken care of. You can tell she takes pride in what she does — it elevated the whole dining experience.

The food was delicious as always, but Brenda is what made this visit unforgettable. If you go to Salt & Stone, ask for Brenda, she’s truly the best!“

“The Cajun sauce is phenomenal. Fresh seafood and big portions. Good place to hangout w friends and family. High recommended. ❤️“

“Excellent! Pad Thai with Crispy Chicken“

“Food and service are impeccable...pumpkin balls, aloo tikki, idli in a spicy broth, lamb with squash and a spicy beef with potatoes, all perfect...“

“One can never fail when going to the Vernon. Consistently great food, drinks and service.“
