13 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hampstead

“Spacious outdoor venue — picnic tables with umbrellas. Absolutely the MOST delicious farmed oysters I’ve ever had, served raw or roast your own on one of several grills. Amazing toppings for the oysters. They also serve sausages for grilling and yummy shrimp salad. Lots if other unexpected seafood options. Great beer selection. What a treat to have the very freshest local oysters anytime of year! We LOVE this place and the terrific employees!! A+++.“

“Authentic Mexican, reminds me of CA. So glad we have this restaurant in our backyard.“

“sawmill is hit or miss for service. I'm here now and waited a good 15min to place order. the place is empty 🤦🏻🤦🏻“

“It was PERFECT ! even the wine paired perfectly with the flavors of the meals. I just visited this place yesterday and I can’t wait to go Back!“

“First time in tonight. Had the Oysters Rockefeller, the black drum ceviche, and the fried flounder! All were incredible! We also ordered a few of the Bloody Mary oyster shooters and they were as delicious as they were aesthetic! Our server was great though I forgot to get her name, as was the manager who stopped in to check on us!“

“Had a mix up with a gift card. They fixed it quick fast and in a hurry. Thanks so much Porter’s neck location!!!!“

“I don’t usually leave reviews but they totally deserve one! We left the movies and my parents said “where are we having lunch?”. I said “right here! I looked at their menu during the movie”. Coquina did NOT disappoint. The “co’jito” and “café con leche” cocktails were perfection. The conch fritters were fantastic. In fact, we were shocked how many fritters come with the order and the size of them. Most restaurants we’ve been to that offered conch fritters come with (maybe) five fritters and always far smaller in size. And the actual amount of conch and size of the pieces: amazing. It was so nice to actually taste conch and not just breading/filler! And then the Cuban sandwich….. OMG….. My father and I always order a Cuban sandwich and judge a restaurant based on it if it’s on their menu. We both agreed that this was probably the best Cuban sandwich we’ve ever had! And we’ve tried them from Key West up to New England. The mayo balances out the mustard…. The melted Swiss cheese…. BUT the winner: the mojo-marinated SMOKED pork. Once you get through the creamy, savory, and tang, you get the smoke flavor and it’s just the perfect marriage of flavors. I know it’s supposed to be a fish-focused place, but do yourself a favor and get the Cuban sandwich!!“

“Amazing drinks, food & service 💕“

“The best!! Fresh, large variety with the most friendly knowledgeable service! Southern hospitality at its finest. We bought our haul fresh from the market and had it cooked on property at the Lewis Seafood Shack food truck.“

“We have been to Topsail Beach many times, but this trip was our first to the Breezeway Restaurant. We came on a Thursday evening; it was very busy. The food was wonderful! We enjoyed it so much we came back again the next night, our last evening on Topsail. We had shrimp, flounder, deviled crab, oysters, and the world's best hush puppies and slaw. This is now our favorite seafood restaurant anywhere. The view of the sunset was spectacular. The service was top notch, with a shout-out to Caitlin and Lucy. We hope to return again next year.“

“Hi guys !! I ordered pickup here and I was not disappointed the 4.7 star rating is there for a reason. The coconut shrimp was fantastic and the wings were good as well, but the drunken noodles stole the show! The drunken noodles here are never ending (the noodles aren't cut to pieces) leaving you with a mouthful of velvety texture and flavour. No other place in the area makes drunken noodles that aren't overly sweet or soggy and I genuinely enjoyed every mouthful. No other place will top this location and I hope to eat here again to try their other dishes. I LOVE THAI FOOD!“

“The pimento cheese sausage biscuits. 🤩Holy moly! 🤤🤤🤤So delish! Adult and toddler approved! 😋😋😋“

“Amazing meal and cocktails on the patio. Excellent service. The raw oysters, crab cakes, and shrimp and grits were incredible. 10/10.“
