50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Clayton

“I’ve come here for dinner several times. It’s great for a date night with my husband or for birthday dinner with the family. I’ve truly enjoyed everything we’ve ordered.“

“Very nice. Professional staff. Romantic tables.“

“I got lucky and nabbed a last minute reservation for my birthday. This is truly my favorite restaurant! The food as always was exceptional. The only thing that was lacking was our waitress seemed a little put off being there. She was timely and attentive, but really not very friendly. This has not been the case on any other visit to your restaurant.“

“I've lived in St. Louis for a little over 20 years and I've heard about the Capital Grill but never visited before. I decided for my birthday this year, we'd try it. I even offered to split the cost with my wife since I had heard it was expensive. Well, it was expensive, but sometimes you absolutely get what you pay for - I was blown away. We started with a giant piece of bacon as an appetizer (Nueske's Cherrywood Smoked Bacon with Korean BBQ). It was about 1/2 in thick cut into bite sized chunks and it was delicious! We moved on to soup, my wife had the french onion soup with was covered with a thick layer of cheese, I had the lobster bisque, and my daughter had the butternut squash bisque - all three were good. The lobster in my bisque was tender and flavorful. I had the 14oz KC strip, my daughter had the 10oz filet, and my wife had the roasted chicken breast. My daughter's filet was easily 12oz and it was cooked perfectly, my KC strip was cooked perfectly and very flavorful, and my wife's chicken was huge (and delicious since I ate her leftovers the next day for lunch). We ordered creamed spinach and parmesan truffle fries for the table. The sides were good but not as good as the other items. Next time (and we will be back) we will probably go with mashed potatoes and sauteed spinach. We split the cream brulee and the flourless chocolate espresso cake for desert and because it was my birthday they brought me a sample of the cheesecake and coconut cream pie on a plate with Happy Birthday written out in icing. I'll definitely get the cream brulee again, it was perfect and my wife and daughter loved the cake. Sometimes you just gotta splurge and when you get that urge - try the Capital Grill, you won't regret it. (And by the way, my wife ended up picking up the check - so maybe it was that expensive.)“

“This is such a fun spot to stop by for lunch or dinner. I made a reservation for one because they don't have a ton of tables inside but they do have an awesome outdoor heated space. The voodoo shrimp tacos were so good and it was so much food! My server was super friendly and the overall ambiance is awesome.“

“We had a table reserved and arrived a few minutes early. The place was packed but they immediately seated us and were very attentive. We were quickly waited on, drinks showed up, order taken and food was on our table very timely. Friendly staff, excellent food and great prices. We could not have had a better experience. I highly recommend!“

“Visiting from Montreal and Hubby wanted to visit a St. Louis Jazz or Blues bar/restaurant and this came up in several searches. We had a great time with a great meal sharing several dishes and topping it off with a flaming bananas foster. We went on a Wednesday night and there was music, but it was with a 70 and 80 vibes. Wasn't what we were expecting but was a fun time nonetheless. Would definitely visit again!!“

“Had my birthday dinner at Krab Kingz and had a great time! The food was well-seasoned, cooked perfectly, and tasted amazing. Staff recommended the Cajun butter with garlic parmesan which was a big hit with the group. I only wish I had ordered more of the hush puppies because they disappeared quickly 😅 10/10 will definitely be back!“

“Love this place! Always a great hang and the music is performed by some of the best artists in St. Louis! Food is spectacular Italian comfort food, and presented with such care and detail. I’m positive that the summer will bring a lot of attention to their elevated patio. Go check it out!!!“

“Best blackened shrimp I've ever had!! The couples dinner was just $88 and came with 2 deserts on top of everything! Amazing!“

“We came into Charlie Gitto’s on the Hill with no reservation, to celebrate my birthday. There was a short wait for seating but we got drinks and were checked on during our wait. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable with pairing drinks with food. The lobster ravioli and manicotti were delicious!! I look forward to going back in the future.“

“Husband and I first time eating here for lunch. We were served super yummy garlic butter bread right away. I ordered sweet tea - I am always hesitant about this when I visit a restaurant for the first time because I am a complete tea snob but it was perfect amount of sweet and most importantly home brewed! We had the seafood broil meant for 2 people - called Big Bend boil I think. Absolutely out of this world delicious Cajun flavor. We picked the “very hot” option because we have a high tolerance and it definitely had a kick! We will probably go hotter next time but that probably wouldn’t be for everyone, we are heat freaks. Lastly our waiter was wonderful, right amount of tentative and friendly. Wish I got his name. We will be back!“

“The food and the entire experience were amazing! The evening was to celebrate my milestone birthday and it did not disappoint! The bourbon list was extensive with so many great choices to choose from! And I sampled several! For dinner I had the fillet, crab and crawfish chowder, and a loaded baked potato…delicious! The bread pudding was also divine. I will definitely be returning! 🤤 🖤“

“ate there while helping with power company I live 4 hrs away I will defiantly make a trip just for the food“

“We wanted Italian food and we decided to go on the hill to Zia‘s. We ordered pasta dishes, which was extremely nice portion size. The bread was delicious when you dip it in olive oil. I also had the French martini which was delicious. I think if you have a taste for Italian food pasta, you couldn’t find a better place.“

“This place was AMAZING!! The food was so thoughtfully creative and prepared with obvious talent and love. We enjoyed meeting owner brothers and hearing their story of bringing their Yucatan culture and roots to the St. Louis food scene. Everything we tried was beyond delicious. This is a must-try for authentic Mexican food inspired by the Yucatan region.“

“The shrimp & the fish was amazing! The lady that took our order over the phone was super nice!!!!“

“Best Birthday Atmosphere 🎂“

“As we hear story after story of COVID outbreaks happening in beef and chicken slaughterhouses, might I recommend trying this outstanding commercial seafood supplier who ships right to your door? They could use the business while restaurants finish getting back on their feet.“

“Excellent food and service! Justin and Chris provided excellent service. The staff at the hostess desk were friendly and welcoming. We will definitely be back. Very thankful for wonderful gluten-free options“

“Top-notch service! They were able to accommodate us on a busy Saturday night, and the food was prepared perfectly. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a great Italian spot in South County.“

“We totally enjoyed our experience! Our server Alfie was great! Jacob his assistant was just as great! The food came out so quickly. We had appetizers, drinks, and entrees. Filets both cooked perfectly. Espresso martini hit the spot. The old fashioned had so much flavor. Will be back again. Also gave us complimentary champagne because we mentioned celebrating our anniversary! How sweet!“

“Great food and very reasonable prices I ate for 2 days so it was well worth it.Very delicious I was curious at first but gave it a try and it’s great. Will be back“

“My Shrimp 3 Way was really good. Sat at the bar due to long wait for dining room seating. Bartenders were great!“

“When you get stuck in an area that you have never been and know nothing or anyone. The staff at this restaurant went over and above for us, especially Michelle and one other server, I am sorry that I couldn’t see his name tag and I didn’t want to be rude. They were both super friendly and helpful and this place should be glad that they have such wonderful staff to help people out. I will definitely be back and will be glad to return to this hotel and restaurant. Thank you all for being so helpful and kind.“

“We have always enjoyed our dining experience at Roberto’s. The food is great, service is great and the atmosphere is great. HOWEVER, they need to improve in two areas. Every time I have asked for a little horseradish. They don’t have any. So next time, I’ll bring my own. The other is the amount of sour crème provided with your huge potato is inadequate. I asked for a little more and they charged me an additional fifty cents! I can’t believe that I’m paying $240 for a meal and they want to ding me fifty cents for a dollop of sour crème. How petty.“

“When I come home to St. Louis I always try to find the best tripe sandwich and I've found it at AAA Fish House.“

“We arrived a little early and were promptly seated. Kurt, our waiter, immediately greeted us and took care of our needs. The food was excellent. Kurt and the rest of the wait staff were very attentive to our needs. With everyone's attention to detail it is easy to see why Kreis' has been the place for fine dining for 77 years.“

“10/10, will be returning soon! Food was amazing, service was great. Make sure you bring a marker to sign the walls! I didn’t know this was a thing until we went inside!“

“Shout out to Ahmad and the whole team at Hook Fish & Chicken (Penn Hills) for the delicious and generous portions of fish, wings and fries for our family reunion Meet & Greet Reception!! They helped me ensure we had enough food for everyone, the order was hot, ready on time, accurate and the relatives are still talking about how good it was. Paired with the rest of our menu, this made for a hearty meal for all ages. Thank you so much for helping make our family gathering a success.“

“Recently ate there, really by accident, we had tickets for an early performance at the Fox theater, but had no reservations. Had waited at another restaurant which was clear we would not have time to eat, and catch the performance. So we went across the street to try Gary’s. The 5 of us got right in, our waiter was fantastic, he was so talented, and great with my granddaughters. Ate a wonderful meal, everyone liked their selection. We did not have time for dessert so the waiter brought us each of us over a piece of chocolate cake with our meals.😊 we will be going back to Gary’s, because of the service and food. Please give it a try if you are in the area you won’t be disappointed.“

“Nice, relaxing atmosphere. Great servers. Amazing, authentic food.“

“We had our company holiday party here and they did an amazing job. the ambience was PERFECT, food was amazing, drinks were awesome and the staff was delightful. The evening was a huge hit with everyone, I'm certain many of us will be back for a dinner or group event, can't go wrong.“

“I’m glad you’re back. I love mother’s fish. I remember eating every Friday“

“Best chicken in town like they said it was“
