18 Best Seafood Restaurants near California

“Delicious, well-seasoned, cooked perfectly. Got the double boil with 1/2 lb snow crab & mussels, and added clams. Everything was great and I will return.“

“DELICIOUS FOOD! Love the chicken pad Thai and the ice tea! 😍“

“We had dinner there this evening, and everything was great. The server was so sweet and helpful. She helped one of our kids with us to figure out what sushi he actually wanted. She was on top of it with drinks, food, boxes and cleanup. The chef was fantastic! He was funny, talented in his skill and the food was delicious. We were told at the end that he was the owner, which made the whole interaction even better. He took the time to do his job and talk to us, all while getting ready to feed a party of 80 people. I highly recommend this place!“

“I got Steak and Cheese and fries..The flavor was amazing for both!! Definitely need to try this place out if you haven't and in the area!“

“My fiance and I dine out often. We dine here and many other places pretty frequently. I had the special salmon and asparagus yesterday. I have to say that is the best salmon, or meal for that matter, that I've ever had. The food is always great, but that was over the top. I hope they keep that on the menu permanently.“

“Now I have been eating at Capt pats for years, my whole family has and never had issues. Last night was for sure a bummer I called in the morning and put a order in for a half bushel of males for 5 pm. We had friends from out of town visiting who never had crabs. Now we live 30 mins away. We went all the way there picked up our crabs and got home and got everything set up and we literally had 20 crabs! I was so upset. I called them by this time it was 6:30, and they didn't even give us a call, yes they had my number. The lady started laughing saying yes your other bag is here. So not only did we have to make that drive back down there, our crabs also sat out for almost 2 hours. That second bag was not very tasty and our whole night was just ruined. Ofc I'm still going to eat there it's my fav place but yesterday was for sure upsetting and ALOT of time and gas wasted“

“Flavorful Thai food, a little skimpy on the rice compared to the entree. plentiful chicken, peppers & onions. sauce very flavorful, but sauce a bit too watery. needed more fresh basil. We plan to give it another try!“

“Ate here for the first time and the food was amazing and so full of flavor.“

“I had the baby crab cake and it was delicious. The side salad was great too. We had a large group and the service was fast. Thank you for doing a great job. I’ll be back.“

“Management is friendly, responsive and quick. All the staff is very nice and always checking in to see if we're good. Crabs were good. Crabcakes, fried shrimp and steam shrimp we have had also. Absolutely recommend this place.“

“Absolutely nothing negative to say about this amazing place! Food is always great, service is friendly, fun and welcoming. One of my favorite places to eat out locally!“

“I just got saved by Shawn in parts. It was the smallest part, but a job that needs to be completed quickly. Thank you for being willing to go above and beyond for a fellow parts department ☺️“

“Love love love this place! My waitress Taylor was so amazing and pretty! I love the food and the view. Definitely would recommend this place“

“My wife and I were traveling our last few days on the great loop when we were contacted by Solomon’s yacht club to spend a few nights at their facility. What a wonderful group of folks, from the time we got there to the time we left we felt like part of the group. I even give you two free drink passes when you arrive for their very nice pub bar. Special shout out to Doug and Susan. Thanks for your hospitality. Mike and Bonnie on the queen Mary.“

“We just finished an OUTSTANDING meal here. My husband had the stuffed rockfish and he RAVED. I had the stuffed lobster tails and they as good. A little pricey but OUTSTANDING. Our waitress was very very good. Would recommend to anyone. Will come again.“

“1.5 HOUR DINING LIMIT!!!! Chief's will always be one of our favorites! The food is terrific 100% of the time, year after year. The staff work really hard to make us feel welcome and attend to all food/beverage needs. My one criticism (and everyone I've spoken to feels the same) is the 1.5 hour limit for dining. We don't go out for a leisurely dinner often, so when we do, we like to order appetizers, main courses, desserts and plenty of drinks. When you find yourselves a minute into dessert and a fresh round of drinks, and it's time to pay the $250-$300 check and leave b/c the 1.5 hour limit is up, it's a total bummer! This time, we actually had to pick up our desserts & drinks and find room [for only some of our party] at the bar, so we could finish. If you are going to have a time limit, put a timer on the table. At least that way, when your time is almost up, you can forget about ordering the desserts and last round of drinks. It was too embarrassing to rush to carry the rest of our meal to the bar, just so we could finish what we paid for.“

“Exceptional crab cakes, hush puppies, and fried rockfish. Good views on the Patuxent. Can't comment on the crabs or shrimp, but this place seems as authentic as it gets. Noisy, family style and unpretentious. Not terribly expensive for fresh seafood.“

“The best strawberry lemonade and lavender lemonade I have had in a long time and the crab cakes were good!“
