25 Best Seafood Restaurants near Clarkston

“I was flying solo this weekend and wanted a nice dinner and experience! Kruse's Deer Lake Inn did not disappoint. I chose from the Flavors of Fall on the menu (pick two) 😋 The stuffed shrimp was prepared perfectly (tender), and the baked shrimp and scallops were delicious. The pilaf pleasantly surprised me and was very good (pilaf is something I would have never ordered but it was the side for the pick two). I also had a Martha's Vineyard salad add tomatoes (not pictured)! I look forward to stopping in again soon!“

“We hosted my daughters baby shower at the Hilltop. The venue was great, lots of space for our 65+ guests that attended. They pulled out all the stops to make sure we had plenty of room to set up. I appreciate all the hard work from the servers, bartenders and managers. You made the day nothing less than perfect!!“

“We had a great first experience at Live Bait / Goomah—two restaurants in one, with the option to order from both menus. Live Bait focuses on seafood, while Goomah offers Italian fare, which makes for a fun and flexible dining experience.

We started with East Coast oysters, which were super fresh and clean. For mains, we ordered the lobster roll and the snapper—both from the Live Bait menu. The snapper was likely cooked just as intended (in a 500° oven), but the texture wasn’t quite what we personally prefer. The chef came out to check in, was extremely friendly, and offered to swap it for the grouper with caper sauce (also from Live Bait), which was incredible—we’d absolutely order that again. The lobster roll was also excellent.

Our server Lexi was fantastic—she was bartending and covering our section solo, and still gave amazing service. Drinks were great, and everything felt relaxed but professional.

Highly recommend this spot for fresh seafood, attentive service, and a unique dual-menu concept. We’ll definitely be back!“

“Its a small establishment but personally I think it's best Blk. owned/operated Soul food restaurant in town. Catering ? Shaun ( the owner ) will hook you up no matter the occasion. Plus Charlie S&S has been around for years so that should tell you something!!!“

“Ordered from this place for the first time today. Very impressed! I got the 10 piece shrimp with fries and a Mountain Dew! The shrimp were big, juicy and succulent! The fries were very tasty too! Portions were perfect as well! Will be back!“

“Oh yeah baby this the spot the only spot“

“Awesome food and great service!“

“Went to Pontiac location today always A1 the catfish and shrimp were to die for definitely our fave spot for fresh steaming delicious seafood everything else they have is bomb af to love love love🤟💯👌“

“Good food & Great service“

“Very friendly waitress, good food!“

“It's the go to spot (in the area) for fried foods! My go to order is the chicken strip combo meal. They serve up a nice generous portion of chicken strips with the optional lemon pepper seasoning added on at the end which is awesomely delicious. The combo meal comes with bread and a pop......I always get an order of friend corn to go with it as well----its the absolute chronic.The jalapeno poppers are on point too.Legend has it you can use a bridge card here......you buy they fry.?“

“The Mexican food in Waterford period!!“

“Had calamari which was like eating rubber. Pasta was very good although the waitress didn't know if the pasta was made in-house. Pizza was the star. It's the best around this area. Service was slow.“

“This place is fire I have no clue who made, this chicken but they know what there doing the last time I had this chicken it was juicy and bursted with flavor. The lemon pepper powder on the fries and chicken gives it a nice kick the ranch they can either provide you with or you ask for it gose bomb with this chicken I'd recommend this place 100% Goodluck. since this will knock you out with flavor!“

“OK the chicken let’s talk about the chicken there’s six different krispy chicken locations within a 10 mile radius maybe more., idk but that doesn’t matter because I won’t eat anyone else’s ? but here at this location. It is so good!!Cleanliness is top notch.Customer service is top-notch, especially Frank. I love him, oh and I also love the female cashier , she’s quick , down to earth and she knows the neighborhood. Is her name tonya?So listen I went to the other krispy chicken locations and it’s funny but they all have a funny smell soon as you walk through the door, like a smelly 90° abandoned bodega … what is it ???? ??‍♀️the customer service is terrible,… they don’t even speak to you and if they do, you can’t decipher what they’re even saying because they don’t even try..idk guys I don’t like it remember it doesn’t cost to be kind but yeah, don’t go to those smelly, “bodegas”,, the best fried chicken and all of our needs and daily convenience store items are here at Kennett express . ?“

“For takeout they're hard to beat. Good prices. The spice level you'd swear they're rolling dice blindfolded, but usually i'll get one mild and one medium. Mixing them together helps get the level right.

I'd also encourage sitting down, having a beer, and ordering some more appetizers some time. The inside seating has a great atmosphere and it's usually not busy.“

“Was there with about 10 of my family members for a Buffalo Bills game ..... yes I know a Bills game in Detroit... We ordered darn near all of the appetizers and a chicken pizza during the game and they were great. Drinks were great. David ... who handles it all was awesome. I hope the changes they have made make this places succeed.“

“Delicious yummy 🤤 ! It was very nice atmosphere!“

“There was a wonderful jazz guitarist on Sunday“

“So fun!! Great service too!“
