44 Best Seafood Restaurants in Greensboro

“Quality, presentation, service and atmosphere!“

“I’ve been enjoying Village Tavern for over 25 years—whether celebrating with friends and family or simply stopping in for a casual meal. It’s one of those rare places where I know I can always count on a consistently great meal and warm, attentive service.

There’s truly not a bad seat in the house. The indoor dining area is cozy and welcoming, and I especially love the outdoor patio when the weather’s nice. The large bar inside is perfect for socializing or networking, with a lively yet comfortable atmosphere. It’s a spot that’s friendly to both families and singles, and the staff always makes everyone feel at home.

Some of my favorites include the fish tacos, meatloaf, and carrot cake—each one consistently delicious and satisfying. The restaurant is clean, well-maintained, and offers plenty of parking, which makes every visit easy and enjoyable.

Village Tavern has been part of so many memories over the years, and I’m grateful it continues to be a place I can return to with confidence and joy.“

“I feel like I just had a religious experience that was too good for there not to be a God. I haven't had a crab boil that good since ever.“

“Our waiter was rubbing some girls' hair and scalp for 3-4 minutes before coming to serve us. two of our party of 5 were there for lunch. the waiter did not wash his hands and we were disgusted. we did not say anything as I decided to make a written comment at home. He also did not write down our orders saying he had been doing this a long time and didn't need to write down the orders. My friend and I were not happy about him rubbing the friend's hair and scalp in front of customers. thank you“

“This was our first time visiting and definitely won’t be the last! We ordered the catfish with fried corn and the chicken sandwich with fries. Both were delicious and perfectly cooked. If you’ve not been here, you are missing out!!“

“Reliably great!!! Angry Lobster is my favorite appetizer. Great location!“

“We love Reel! They have the total package ! Atmosphere, great food & great staff !“

“Brought fish sandwich for my 95 yo grandma.“

“Great atmosphere! The food and service are amazing. They also have a great cocktail menu with new stuff to try all the time. I come here often and my favorite thing is that once a month they have 4 course beverage and food dinners! Great price, great service, and they make it fun with prizes and decorations!“

“My first time going there, I ordered myself a flounder plate with ff & hush puppies. ( which I love me, some flounder). The flounder was too dry, with it being fried. The breaded of it was coming off from the flounder, which I just ate the fish part of it. The Cole slaw was ok. The hush puppies weren't so bad that they were only 4 that were given with my order. Maybe this will be my last time going there. I need to find where Mayflower is located!“

“We had a fantastic dinner last night. My whisky sour was delicious! The filet was amazing and so was the tiramisu. Our waitress, Tiara, helped to make it a wonderful experience!“

“Rachel and I ate at MJ's Saturday night and it was one of the Best meals that I have ever eaten in a restaurant. Michael Angelo is alive and well and working as a chef at MJ's. There is No Way that this restaurant is a 4.7, its got to be a solid 5. If you want the Best meal that you have ever eaten, try MJ's. You will be glad that you did !“

“it's has an authentic vibe food is ok just lacks seasoning but I would def try again“

“Solid seafood place, the food is consistently good. Big portions, friendly staff, and an ok atmosphere. The only cons I have are the fries and soft drinks. Go for the tea or water, and pick a side other than fries (I might have just gotten a bad batch but the majority of my fries seemed over cooked) overalll the seafood was great and that's what this place is about!“

“The food is alway fresh and hot and the service gets a 10+ Thanks Tides Inn! 🥰“

“Tonight was my family’s first time eating at El Alebrije ! Food was hot and fast! Queso had just enough of a kick to it . The plates are huge! I got an ACP and could have easily split it with my husband. Price of our meal was great too for a family of 5!“

“This place is a hidden secret. The food was amazing. Also looking around at everyone else's food that came out looked great as well. The food actually looks like the pictures posted. Definitely a keeper! The restaurant is clean and the servers are nice and friendly. TVs are in eye view no matter where you sit. It's not a boring atmosphere. Sitting inside and out. Must check out!!“

“10/10. My daughter law and I like to find new places downtown to eat, well did she find a gem today!! I had breakfast and they had lunch. The food was absolutely amazing, love they have the healthy options like turkey bacon. My grandson had the Salmon burger guys this was SO good! My breakfast was plentiful and the potatoes are the best I’ve ever ate! It is hidden inside of the Renaissance building, straight back past the elevator and to the left! The service was great, the atmosphere was great! We will be returning!“

“Fantastic Loco Moco, just be sure to get the rice under the meat and gravy, not on the side. It's about the presentation and also the gravy soaks into the rice better but they put my rice on the side for some reason? Other than that, I highly recommend this place.“

“Large Seafood and Hibachi Menu. Clean establishment and fast service.“

“Food beyond amazing. Great and friendly service“

“Victoria was a great host and server. She was polite and patient. The food was very tasty.“

“Had the Pork Belly Tacos, Pastor Tacos and the Shrimp Empanadas with that Cucumber Lime drink situation. All of it was great to start. Can't name too many that use the blue corn tortilla, I love it.“

“Fantastic menu + specials and with Vivian as our waitstaff, our evening was perfect! Vivian was exceptional --customer-friendly and patient, as we took our time to decide; responsive to our questions; and eager to ensure our needs were met. Thank you!“

“We celebrated our 45th anniversary there last night, Sept. 26. Our waiter Aiden was absolutely the best. He was very polite, professional and always made sure how our food was. Also, he's so sweet to talk to and was very attentive to our conversations. I'd give him a 10 star rating.“

“I liked the food and I rate it a 100 and I loved the desert!.“

“food was excellent and the the service was great,i definitely will be back and recommend this place“

“The food was good, not great. The fish was not cooked very well. Service was applicable. The appearance of the restaurant was not good at all. Several tables were not cleaned, and there was lots of food on the floor. The atmosphere was not pleasing for the consumption of food ?“

“I had a really bad ear infection and had trouble chewing anything really hard due to the nerve pain. I told the cashier that I needed something I can chew, explaining why. The cook came out and asked me to try it and see if my food was soft enough to eat before packing it up. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.“

“My husband and I love Aunt E’s Southern Cuisine! The owner really came through for us with a large order at the last minute during the NCA&TSU Homecoming celebration last weekend. We needed food for 10 people and the other soul food restaurants we called laughed at us and said there was no way they could help us on the Thursday before Homecoming! We talked with Aunt E herself, and she worked with us and let us know what dishes she could prepare. We called her at noon and the food was ready by 4:00pm. When we went to pick up the food, it was hot and ready just in time for our guests who were scheduled to arrive by 5:00pm. It was our first time in the restaurant, and we noticed a friendly ambience and beautiful banquet room. We also met her husband, daughter, and other relatives. We are so grateful for her willingness to help us. And to top it all off, the food (cabbage, sweet potato casserole, sautéed spinach, and jollof rice), was delicious! Everybody loved it! We give this business our highest rating and appreciation!

Parking: Parking is available right in front of the restaurant and the parking lot is large with lots of available parking.“

“The pasta and grilled chicken was awesome and the waiter was exceptionally awesome 😎 too wow 🤩“

“I ordered the beef lo mein, and as the store name implies, it "taste good".
I called in my order and arrived about 10 mins after, I was quoted an oddly specific time of 7 mins. However, when I arrived I waited about 10 more mins for the food. That being said, it was fresh so I'm not complaining.
The lobby isn't what you would call inviting or necessarily clean. The menu is old printed paper with typos but they also have the classic menu at the counter. See attached pics.
They do try to distract you from the 90 health rating with a decoration hanging in front of it.“

“I love to eat captain D love fish to li seafood“

“Stephanie's I, I love the hotdogs atw, and the chili cheeseburgers with onions remind me so much of home. Stephanie's II offers the best-tasting soul food, huge portions, and friendly staff. It also offers great service and no wait. We appreciate you allowing DTACS to use your Restaurant on Mondays and Tuesdays for training.“

“This place is tucked away and maybe seems a little off but it’s great!! Everything I ordered was delicious. I can’t wait to go back and have a full seafood boil. Yum! Thanks for my lunch while I was working in Greensboro. I’ll be back!“

“Let me tell you from silent travel to all of you. I had to go back to my old stomping ground in Greensboro when I heard they had a juicy crab. I had to see it for myself because it was not there when I went to school there but it is a blessing to see it there. I am happy to say and I can officially say this is one place you better not skip out on when you come back to the g-boro the crab is juicy. The meat is nice and tender. I mean it's just melts in your mouth. I serve very nice to look at very hospitable and very easy to work with. Love the recommendations and I think all of them do a really good job making sure you feel it okay. Just make sure you bring your appetite and get you a set of oysters. It'll set you on fire. Thanks to stop and buy and checking it out“

“Good vibes, good food, good deals, fun crowd, just wish it was bigger.“

“Now don't get me wrong, I use to meet up with my girly here all the time. I left and came back and had not seen my girl in 5 years. She was wanting those cheddar biscuits. She loves them boys. 😂 We didn't wait too long to get a seat. The food was good but the service was amazing 😍. Best servers ever. Thanks you guys for making my night a good one. I had been down until going there. You guys lifted my spirits. ❤️
