11 Best Seafood Restaurants near Brooklyn Center

“Our waiter Eric was amazing dealing with such a big crowd for our dad’s birthday.“

“Our service from Naomi was impeccable. She was very nice and attentive. The chicken wings were crispy outside and tender inside, just how I like them. The wild mushroom and spinach ravioli was delicious. The ribeye steak was very flavorful. Even the French fries were super tasty, crispy outside and tender inside. We had one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time.“

“The chicken is FIYA LOL FR I'm picky and I don't like most people's food I'm from Memphis so I'm very particular about how food taste especially being in Minnesota this is the only chicken that taste anything close to home. I'm addicted lol“

“Everything!!!! Especially the roast duck, lobster, Shrimp fried rice, egg fu young, shrimp and asparagus and their soups“

“Staff is very nice and accommodating. Love the decor and vibe of the place. If you miss filipino food, this can be a place to go. It's a different region of filipino food from what I'm used too. Prices are pretty good with the portions sizes.“

“The Smack Shack combines the serene and swanky with seafood! The menus are easy to navigate with such classics as shrimp étouffée and lobster bisque. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The seating is spacious and indoor as well as outdoor. I will visit again and highly recommend to others. Cheers!“

“We stopped here on December 24th looking for fresh lutefisk and were pleased to find we could buy a 5lb filet. The lutefisk was amazing I was told and in the future we will be sure to call ahead and place the order. The manager was running back and forth with several options before we decided to just buy the 5lb filet. I can say I was amazed, they cooked it in the oven and when I returned that evening I could hardly smell anything other than the usual air fresheners we have in the house.

So thanks again for helping keep a Christmas tradition alive and hope the girls hockey team does great.“

“We stumbled upon "Barwaqo" as it's now called when we were headed to the Electric Fetus for a book signing event; apparently this place changed hands about a month ago (Oct 2023) so previous reviews under the old Cala name are not relevant. We felt very welcomed by the owner and staff, and had an amazing dinner of Somali chicken and rice, sambusa, and the spinach dish which game with roasted goat and a fava bean soup with glutinous rice cakes. Everything was fresh and delicious and obviously made with a lot of care, and all of the food we got only came to about $45. We were thrilled to have randomly taken a chance on an unknown place and we will go back in the future. When we talked to the owner outside afterwards, I asked one of the staff what "barwaqo" means in Somali and he said "gift" but when I looked it up, it means "prosperity." Take a chance on this place at the corner of Clinton/Franklin instead of the Wendy's across the street!“

“These folks have known how to do fine dining for decades. One of my favorites growing up and now I take my own kids.“
