50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Rochester

“Such a wonderful place, great vibe, delicious food and sitting outside is the ultimate experience, overlooking the river! Absolutely loved it so much, I went two days in a row! The hamburger and fries I had yesterday were so tasty! Today, I had the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich and fries! Sauce on the side. Brit was my server and she was phenomenal. I will definitely be going again.

Parking lot is small, so just go around the corner and park in the free parking lot and find your way through the parking lot to Main Street or go through the trail system. Afterwards, take a beautiful walk along Riverwalk.“

“Came here for a quick dinner with some of my girlfriends after my wedding dress fitting, and it was the perfect spot. The lobster bisque was absolutely delicious, and the menu offered plenty of variety with lots of great options to choose from. We each tried different chef selections, and everyone loved both their food and drinks. I especially appreciated the thoughtful mocktail menu for anyone not drinking but still wanting something special. The service was friendly and very attentive, which made the experience even better. I would definitely go back!“

“My husband and i came for lunch at 2pm on a Sunday (today) to a SLAMMED restaurant. Only one man seemed to be working the floor, which we found out later was the GM, Pudge. He was OUTSTANDING! He was cleaning tables, seating people, taking orders, delivering orders, prebussing tables, making drinks from the bar, THE WHOLE DEAL. On top of that he made time to stop by the table NUMEROUS times to make sure our experience was amazing, which it was. My husband loved his seafood boil and my chicken tenders were great! Because of today’s experience, we will absolutely be back! THANK YOU Pudge, for an excellent experience! I can’t tell you the last time. I had a wonderful over the top great experience at a restaurant.“

“Went there yesterday with my husband for our anniversary dinner. The decor and atmosphere is lovely. We had a drink at the bar before getting a table for dinner. All staff were super friendly and courteous. I had the Perch Piccata which was amazing. It was a very large portion so I had plenty to take home for another meal. My husband enjoyed his Bolognese which was also a very large portion. Highly recommend this place and will definitely go back soon.“

“Amazing food and even better atmosphere. I've been there twice and plan on going over and over again. The staff are very helpful and nice. My daughter would eat there every night if I'd let her 😅.“

“This place was absolutely phenomenal! Everything was so fresh and flavorful. Portions were great and prices were even better. Staff was so friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back.“

“On Friday, February 6, we went to Capitol Grille. It has been our “Go to” restaurant for birthdays and anniversaries for many years, except the disappointment of our absence during the repairs caused by the fire. The food is excellent, the service superb. This time, however, we went to celebrate a very special event. We had no intention of disclosing the purpose, except to tell them it was a very special event. The hostess that seated us, got my wife to disclose the event. Before we knew it, the Manager, Eric, came to our table, expressing congratulations, etc. Several others, some we knew, and others we did not, also came to our table to express their congratulations. Eric then returned a second time, with more kind words. What we learned during this visit, Capitol Grille is not only about great food, and great service, it is about the people, very special people who made this visit extraordinary. Mike R.“

“Amazing! Try the Pasanda! The service was incredible.“

“I went to Seasons 52 for a work lunch. Out waitress was really nice. I ordered a salmon salad and it was absolutely delicious. Fish was fresh and seasoned well. The salad was lite and refreshing. I would go back there to order that again. They also have a lunch menu where you can get a flatbread and either a soup or salad. Some of my coworkers ordered a flatbread and side salad, they had a lot of food. Everyone stayed their food was good. My salad was $23 and I didn’t have much left over but it was really good. Seasons 52 offer other dishes that also sounds really good.“

“My family and I went for Mother's Day and we enjoyed our meals!! I didn't like how the hostess who greeted us at the table was a little short and somewhat impatient. However, the gentleman that took our order was very nice. Also, the table setup was beautiful! I love that each Mother was given a flower.“

“Some middle aged man pushed me into a TV there. very great service.. the man was rather hot.“

“Happy Hour !! Good and plentiful @ $7“

“Our table was just to the left of the entrance. We were very impressed by the service first and foremost. Her attention to the details were very much appreciated. The food was excellent. We were first timers today. And greatly appreciate the hospitality. We will return. Thank you“

“Saw this place on Chowdowndetroit. Thought it would be a nice place to take my Filipina wife for her birthday meal. It was like walking into a nice simple restaurant back in the Philippines. Even had the Filipino favorite past time a Karaoke machine just like back home. The only thing missing were the chickens running around outside crowing. The owners were warm and welcoming with a sense of humor. The food was just like back in the Philippines flavorful and filling. For the price it was a value for the combo meal the right amount of food for one person or split between 2 for a light meal. Of the 4 of us eating I was a piggy and ate it all but the other 3 had leftovers to take home. They offer other thing Filipino to go items from the little Filipino (Sari-Sari) store they have. Overall, it's a place I would drive to from Lansing (1hr 20 min drive) again for on a special occasion. This is a slice of the Philippines in metro Detroit.“

“My entire experience was great! I ordered 6 oysters, whitefish pate, hot lobster roll w/melted butter, corn on the cob & a coke. All of the food was delicious! I have dined here at least 6 times & ordered different items & I’ve never been disappointed. Food & service is fantastic. I’ve never had a bad experience.“

“Was my first time in Churchill’s yesterday, 03/28. Had no idea what to expect, never understood the purpose of the cigar. With that being said, I cannot wait to go back. Our waiter was great, the old fashioned was amazing and that cigar…now I get it!! So relaxing, great atmosphere and with a great tour guide who was also celebrating his birthday. That’s where he wanted to go, I’m sure glad he did!!! Highly recommend!“

“Delicious and authentic Polish food, great atmosphere, and kind staff. Many choices of food and drinks. We enjoyed Polish rosół (chicken noodle soup), which was absolutely amazing! Also, pork chops with mashed potatoes and coleslaw were delicious. It all definitely hit the spot. Furthermore, they have Polish beer and other drinks to complete the meal. Best Polish Food around!“

“My wife said the salad and Lasagna were exceptional. My Pork Chop was well prepared and tasty. However, the garlic mashed potatoes were terrible. Tasted like instant potatoes and watery. Wondering what went wrong.“

“Great experience eating at the bar. Always love the cheddar biscuits and the drinks were great. Watched the USA hockey game with the other patrons, so it was a nice vibe! I’ll be back for sure!“

“The food is AMAZING! The people working hard to make it all happen are so friendly and AMAZING. Kabob Hut Thank you for all you do.“

“Absolutely the best most amazing place I’ve ever eaten. not only is every single thing I’ve eaten here delicious, but the service is 100/10.

Me and my sister come here every single week, multiple times. ( we gained most our pregnancy weight here hehe ) if it wasn’t for this place I wouldn’t have had a nice balanced diet and properly gained the weight I needed because I struggle eating pregnant.

My sister just had her baby we even came here right before she went to the hospital for a final meal before labor 😂 we missed out on a few weeks but just came back yesterday. We couldn’t stay away for the food is always a huge craved obsession.

My daughter loves it too 😂🙆🏼‍♀️

Krista, and the chef Franco have become such wonderful parts of our enjoyment here, always check in on us, how we’re doing, and remember the smallest details. We’re always excited to see them, my daughter gets overly joyed and calls them besty😂❤️. Definitely Can’t forget how amazing and sweet Yvonne, Nicole and the manager Chris is too. Never a bad time with any of them, always such good conversations. They’re all such a breath of fresh air and make the meal even more spectacular.

If you haven’t been here yet, definitely stop by ❤️ you will be in for such a treat.

Pricing isn’t bad, quick service, Happy atmosphere, good music

My mother even said she’s been coming here for years too and everything on the menu has always topped anything she’s had at any other place.

Don’t miss out 🥳“

“Excellent service all around and delicious food!“

“Dinner was fabulous and staff is top notch.“

“The server Charteria was well-versed with the menu. She was attentive and personable. The manager Kinga came by asking about the server and food. We were impressed with her. The atmosphere was very uplifting. My meal was very good. I had the prime rib sandwich.“

“Our server Staci was great. She made our time there great and we will ask for her on our next visit. Loved the shrimp tacos.“

“Danielle was a fantastic server! Cheerful, professional, and had some exceptional suggestions. The double cheeseburger at happy hour was very tasty as were the fish tacos. We will be back!“

“We celebrated My Husband Birthday Everything Was Perfect Thank You For An Awesome Experience Our 1st Time There 🥰Definitely Will Be Back And Highly Recommended 🥰“

“This may be our favorite restaurant! Such great food! As a vegetarian there are plenty of options and their Tikka Masala sauce is the best! If you’re looking for a delicious meal, excellent portions, and warm service you need to come to Mayuri!“

“Drunken Noodles was too salty for my taste but otherwise fresh and flavorful. Very friendly staff--smiles included! There were tables and chairs but it may as well have been a small 50 yr old carport or shed. I appreciate an establishment that aesthetically invites you sit and stay a while; this place is not that.“

“Words cannot express how calming it is to go to Take Sushi. We have been customers for 21 years. The owner carried our daughter around when she was a baby so we could eat. Today as I prepare to send the baby off to college soon they were there for a special lunch. Let us in early and we had the most exquisite selection of chō moriawase. This is the best sushi around. Our friends who were from Japan said it was their favorite in metro Detroit. It’s our favorite because we love the family atmosphere that resounds in this crazy world!“

“Great flavors, great service, great ambiance, at a even greater price“

“excellent dishes very good portions!“

“Dinner last week was great! Our waitress Annabelle was fantastic! Place was busy, but she gave great individual attention and fast drinks ❤️ we will be back!“

“Great place good food and service we will definitely go back.“

“We celebrated our Annniversary. The hostess and waitress acknowledged it. We had bbq shrimp and ceasar salad to start. I had twin 4oz filet with shrimp and my husband had 11oz filet. Side dishes were cream spinach( large enough portion) and sweet potatoe casserole in a tiny ramiken. This used to be an extra large portion. We were given Cheesecake to take home along with our leftovers. We were dressed in nice casual clothes. Many guests were wearing Michigan tshirts, Basketball tanks with shorts and other unappealing clothing for a lovely expensive dining establishment. The sign at the front that states business casual is ignored. This was are only dissapointment.“

“Food is amazing ! The kindest staff I’ve ever met! Don’t forget to try their garlic spread !“
