9 Best Seafood Restaurants near Dillsboro

“Friendly staff! Food was excellent!“

“Rivers and Rails is incredible! We absolutely loved their fish and chips, and the staff was so friendly and welcoming. We stopped by RNR after our rafting trip in Dillsboro and accidentally lost a wallet during our visit. Two days later, it was found under a table by a customer, and thanks to Rhonda for figuring out how to contact us and the staff (especially Sky for safely securing it), we got it back before we had to fly back to Texas! Their kindness and honesty made a big impression on us. If you’re looking for great food and even better people, definitely check out Rivers and Rails!“

“I would recommend the fried seafood platter! I got the fried oysters and shrimp. the oysters were sweet and not over cooked like most seafood resturants! next time we go im going to try the raw oysters and have more fried oysters. I couldn't believe we could find such freash tasting oysters here in the mountains!“

“My wife and I had lunch at All Fried Up this past Saturday and really enjoyed it. The food was very good, and the service was great. This is a great concept for a restaurant.“

“We had two signature items from the menu that we have had many times. Not up to par this time (9-21-22). French onion soup was like warm. Mediterranean appetizer over browned. Italian pasta salad needed more oil and grated cheese. The added tofu was practically burnt and flavorless.“

“K&M has the best seafood, delicious dishes, friendly atmosphere and amazing specials. I highly recommend the crab rangoons as an app. Blackened shrimp fajitas are heaven, the andouille PoBoy is scrumptious, Crab Cakes are amazing, hands down the best crab legs in town. They have daily specials and I haven’t had anything I don’t like. The owners are truly genuine and so kind. It’s our favorite place to eat in town.“

“my husband had baby octopus very tender and delicious. I had Dumplings yummy. Dinner Thai Panang curry chicken and Orange chicken we both ordered spicy and it was cooked perfectly. Highy recommend Osaka. we will definitely go back loved it. Great friendly service waiter awesome.“

“This was a terrible experience, not just by me but all the guests around me experienced the same horrible evening. Sadly it's not the first time, Ruth Chris in the casino is absolutely the worst one in the country. I don't understand why the casino continues to value them here. They should emptied it out and replace it with a better steakhouse brand or Gordon Ramsay.  Stop renewing their contract!“

“Gordon Ramsay's Pub absolutely exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and relaxed — you truly feel comfortable whether you're dressed in sequins or a tee shirt. It's that rare spot that feels special without feeling stuffy. The food was phenomenal. The Beef Wellington was cooked to perfection — tender, flavorful, and beautifully balanced with its rich, savory layers. Every bite was indulgent in the best way. The nachos were equally impressive, piled high with fresh toppings and packed with bold, satisfying flavor. And the crème brûlée was the perfect finale — silky smooth custard with that flawless caramelized crack on top. Absolutely delicious. Beyond the incredible food, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly. Ayu made us feel welcome and well cared for throughout the entire meal. The restaurant is also fully wheelchair accessible, which makes it an inclusive and thoughtful choice for families and groups of all kinds. Overall, Gordon Ramsay's Pub delivers an ideal dining experience — amazing flavor, inviting atmosphere, excellent service, and a perfect casual family-friendly vibe. We'll absolutely be back.“
