50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hamtramck

“Came here with a couple friends really dear to me and this place did Not disappoint!!! Our bread was super fresh and hot and they also made sure our drinks were kept fresh and refilled, the service was amazing both waiters kept checking up and making sure everything was good. Definitely coming back.“

“I went to Taj AL-Yemen simply because it was open early and did not realize the space they took over nor how much variety they have.

1st this was a very famous breakfast spot in Hamtramck before the change of owners and I'm happy to say it still is. Very steady stream of workers coming in for a quick bite or grab coffee and something to go.

2nd the variety is wide and it's all very very good. I ordered fosoulia with egg, chicken galaba but it was too early for tandoori bread. I also got a mango lassi (yes I have to order it everytime I see it)

When I arrived I first drove past remembering the old spot then I double checked GPS. The inside layout of the restaurant has been redone, lots and lots of seating. You still have the doughnut counter but the I noticed Burek, whenever I see Burek I have to order it they have feta and spiced beef. It's super fresh and still warm at 7:15 am.

There's another hot food case, lots of choices but I saw the East African/Western Arabian (Arab/Swahili) style sambosas (yes with the B!) and of course I had to get 6 of those with the spice shake.

Additionally they have the same Arab/Swahili style sesame + honey crackers so I had to get some of these as well.

FINALLY I'm looking and they have the tastiest looking Saffron Rice and it was too fresh to pass up and a medium size box also had to come with me.

Now when I say I bought a lot of food I really mean I bought a lot of food. With tip it was only $70 and I'll be eating for days.

So happy to have found this gem in Hamtramck that opens up super early on my 2nd day of vacation. There's too much good food, the doughnut also look amazing. I'd say you have to go for the samBosas alone.“

“Wow. What an absolutely fantastic final dinner of 2023! After we managed to find a late dinner reservation for New Year's Eve, it was a relief to discover that our excitement about the tasting menu was well-placed. I would definitely recommend the drink pairings as well! The amuse-bouche featuring oysters from the West and East coasts was a delightful way to splash into the meal. The wasabi and the mangosteen featured in each of the oysters, respectively, complimented the beautiful brine of the oysters in such a wonderfully playful way. This first tasting urged us to pause the menu progression and order an extra dozen oysters to explore the other possibilities. Tasting from Vancouver to Prince Edward Island, they were beautifully prepared and of excellent quality. The first course of lobster salad felt like a summer in Maine. Not that I've ever been to Maine, but the imaginary scene flashed across my vision as I took that first refreshing bite. The grapefruit emulsion worked almost majestically with the light, refreshing flavor of the lobster salad. The tapioca chip was perfect for the crunch to fully bring the different elements of the dish together. A fascinating intersection of refreshment and comfort. The second course was the potato pavé. I'll be thinking of this potato often for the foreseeable future. It was one of those dishes that makes your eyes pop open a bit when you bite it as you realize how good it is. A beautifully layered and seared rectangle of flaky delicious potato resting with a lovely salsa brava speckled with trout roe, topped with tarragon, cured trout, and black truffle flakes. I don't even know what else to say. It was stunning. Sea urchin buttered ramen, the third course, will always be what I wish my at-home thrown-together ramen could be. It was rich, it was luscious, it was comforting. Growing up in southeast Texas, crawfish boils were always some of the most exciting times of the year. The crawfish tails in the ramen brought me back to those summer days eating crawfish with a cold beer. The duck breast for the fourth course was exceptionally cooked. It was juicy and flavorful and made a perfect bite with a bit of cauliflower, raisins, apricot, agrodolce, and foie-sauce. Each bite was such a symphony of flavor that kept me coming back. Last but absolutely not least was the gâteau ardéchois: the chestnut cream cake. Accompanied by cranberry coulis and crispy meringue bites, this dessert was a sweet but still mellow finish. While the coffee mascarpone ice cream was a robust and complementary flavor, we both agreed the vanilla coconut ice cream was the star between the two. Thank you again to the stellar crew at Mink! Happy New Year!“

“First time here and the shrimp basket was great!! Emilia was such a delight! Super friendly!“

“Mohamed Mohamed is one of the kind people and sweet I ever met and so talented I love that guy“

“Sooooo good! Just had dinner tonight and can honestly say the food and service NEVER disappoints!“

“Our waitress, Taylor B was phenomenal. Food was excellent as usual but she went above and beyond.“

“Their filet o fish sandwich was the best I’ve ever had. The oysters are always great here too. Oh, and they have an awesome happy hour. We love dining here.“

“Sure I’m biased as a lifetime mug club member, but don’t sleep on Lily’s!!! From the always available standards to the seasonal releases, everything is always on point and to style. Favorites include the pils, dortmunder, California common and marzen. Happy hour is also great — I’m not a seafood person but have plenty of other great options. Prost! 🍻“

“Made Friday night reservations 2 weeks ahead for a table (you can sit at the bar too with reservations). Free parking literally right in front was a huge win for a busy evening. We were on time and waited just a few minutes, which actually worked out because the open kitchen smells and those flames totally pulled us in. Super warm, cozy vibe and the space looks just as good inside as it does from the outside. Once we sat down in the cozy chair/table setup, we kicked things off with drinks and ordered apps and mains all at once. Everything came out fast and hot. The mussels, beef tartare, and tuna tartare were all flavorful, and just really well done. The only letdown was the Pollo that looked great but really needed more seasoning (& onions lol) to match the rest of the menu. Service was friendly & fantastic. Overall, it was an awesome family night out and a spot we’d happily come back to. 5/5.“

“The restaurant is a little smaller with a more intimate feel. We sat at a small high top table next to the bar and we couldn’t have asked for better service. Throughout the night, at least 6 different servers took care of us (sitting next to the bar, we were taken care of by the bartenders.) The food and drinks were amazing and the service was top notch. My boyfriend had the peach cocktail and then an old fashion with honey cinnamon syrup and I had the mule which all of the drinks were absolutely delicious. We both had the Steak frites which was cooked to perfection and the fries I just couldn’t get enough of. For dessert, we took home the banana pie dessert and the Dubai chocolate cheesecake special and let me just say, oh my goodness. Neither of us knew which one we liked better. We will definitely be back! Thank you for an amazing valentines dinner :)“

“Excellent service!! Knew it was a celebration and took special care to ensure a great experience!! Food, as always, exceptional!!“

“Hi, my name is Kendra Cleveland and I give you guys a five ⭐️because it was clean. We came in from Toledo Ohio and the boss served us well and it was my Birthday So I was very impressed good food y’all need to check out the chicken wings, the shrimps greens macaroni and cheese. what a special seasoning 🤦🏽‍♀️ Everything was the bomb we will be coming back for your seafood boil“

“menu, both standard and specials were well thought and diverse. oysters were fresh and delicious. made up for a missed trip to NOLa today due to inclement weather. sat at the bar, Dennis was a particularly pleasant and knowledgeable bartender five star experience across the board“

“Just had my first visit to The Townhouse, and it was fantastic! From the moment I walked in, the service blew me away. Everyone was super attentive, professional, and welcoming, but Raegan really stood out. She knew the menu like the back of her hand, gave thoughtful recommendations, and her friendly energy made me feel right at home. Honestly, she turned a first-time visit into an experience I won’t forget anytime soon. The vibe of the restaurant combined with that kind of service makes it feel special without being stuffy. Between the food, the staff, and Raegan’s energy, I’m officially a fan. Can’t wait to come back, try more dishes, and enjoy another evening like this!“

“We planned on trying a few other pasta spots for Valentine’s Day, but everything was booked solid. Ended up giving the new kid on the block, Oak & Reel, a shot—and I’m glad we did. The veal-stuffed ravioli was unreal. Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert—it’s non-negotiable. And the Banana Run cocktail? Dangerously good.“

“The best Indian food In Michigan ,loved it and recommended to others“

“Food is A-1 five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️definitely will be back“

“Been going there for 60 yrs. My dad used to work there back in the early 60s. GREAT FOOD.“

“I can’t say enough about our dining experience! This restaurant is on my TOP list here in Nashville and I will now frequent. Everything from start to finish was superb! Our waiter Sid was nothing g more than AMAZING and the manager was very nice and came by to say hello! The FOOOOOD was SO good it’s definitely worth it!!“

“Fred's has established themselves as the fsh kings in me and my family eyes.

I really don't know or understand what's going on with the fish market these days, but the fish from other establishments I have frequented, are bad pieces of fish to sell to the market.

I won't name the establishment, but they serve fish for profits only. The quality of the fish is subpar at best .

Fred's has consistently served fresh flavorful fish, with choice pieces that were selected for satisfaction and to cure the hunger of their customers.

Way to go Fred...“

“New menu was amazing. We had the potatoes, the scallops, burrata, and mushroom with shiitake dish. Burrata was hands down my favorite, thing. Perfect combination!! Highly recommend everything I got and the service was perfect, I mean like I finished my water and by the time my glass hit the table it was refilled. This was actually my second time, I’ve been before for a friends birthday and we had a different menu…..the pomegranate ribs were mouthwatering delicious. Not to mention the atmosphere inside, I personally love plants and that’s the first thing you notice when you walk in the door. Check it out for yourself, you won’t be disappointed!!“

“We rolled up to a full house with guests waiting on their take out food. Somehow you knew it was food worthy waiting for. There was community amongst strangers in anticipation of being fed. The car ride home was plagued with the aroma of delicious food, making a 15 minute drive feel like an eternity. Once home, we grabbed forks and dug in like starved hostages. I briefly reminded myself to chew and savory the flavors and not just inhale the plate like a wild animal. Starving or not, the food was perfect! Broccoli to perfection, rice that soaked up the sauce, chicken juicy, salmon flaky and moist. Would order again!“

“Love the Jumbo Shrimp and they are the only place that has Orange Roughy which is my favorite!! This the only fish place that i go to!!“

“The food here is amazing!“

“The food was delicious as always but there has been some changes No free salad with meal anymore if you order the all you can eat shrimp you will not be provided with take out containers for my people that feel unlimited means doggy bag lol No zip lock baggies The shrimp police checked a ladies bag and she was asked to eat her meal at her table👀 They appear to have figured out the angles so leave the zip lock baggies at home“

“great food and service...“

“This place is a rare find! It’s hard to find a spot that does everything well, but from their perfectly layered lasagna to their chicken and frog legs, everything is delicious. Even the basics like the coleslaw and the sandwich buns are top-notch. Friendly service and a great pizza, too. Whatever you order, you’re going to love it!“

“An absolute gem in Southwest Detroit! Went tonight with a party of six for my nephews birthday. Everyone raved about their meals. Hearty portions and reasonable prices! The service was 5⭐️.“

“What catches me is to cook He was clean he wore gloves and a food he kicked me was delicious Service ended up being pretty good but at first it was a little shallow cuz I always say hello how are you today It's nothing wrong with speaking so I kept on talking to her sparked up a conversation and it ended up very decently her service was very kind and I will attend going back here again overall I had a good experience and I finally found me a place where I can have some good food to eat Thank you“
