14 Best Seafood Restaurants in New Bern

“Good food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. My husband and I went on Thursday night for dinner as we have many times in the past. My only complaint was everything was overly salted. We removed the breading from the calamari, his tuna didn't have much flavor only salty. My crabcakes were as good as always! Maybe they should cut back off on the salt, you can always add more at the table.“

“We had the ribeye and shrimp boil and it was delicious! We highly recommend. Service was excellent too.“

“We ate Spots Combo and a cup of Clam Chowder. You order and pay first, select a seat at a tabke or a booth, and they will give a number to put on the table to serve your order.

After ordering, it took approximately 10-15 minutes. The food was hot and fresh.“

“we go there occasionally for dinner but last night we enjoyed a special five course, Irish themed meal. The food was, as always,, outstanding and the wait staff was excellent. We always enjoy sitting and looking at the river while we dine. Chef David is a masterful Chef! Say hello to Jessica, the restaurant manager, who is lovely and welcoming!“

“My Fiancé and I had dinner here celebrating our 10th anniversary this past thursday. We showed up slightly early for our reservation, they took us immediately. Sat us in a private intimate booth towards the back of the dining room. We ordered a bottle of wine (Freakshow). presented perfectly by our server Anna. (hopefully i spelled it correctly) who was amazing! She described the daily features gracefully and gave us time to look over the menu. We ordered the shrimp and grits appetizer. The grits were amazing... local, water ground, silky and seasoned perfectly. The shrimp were cooked proper and super hot. and the brown butter bbq was unlike any traditional bbq..so much better. The Chef came out to meet with us and recommended the Wahoo Oscar feature. Which we ended up ordering along with the 14oz Ribeye. The Wahoo was fresh as could be and cooked perfectly. Tasted like the ocean. Topped with a generous portion of lobster, a beautiful satin bernaise and crispy tempura asparagus, served over wild rice. That dish SLAMMED. The ribeye was charred beautifully and cooked to a perfect medium rare. The mashed potatoes were perfectly seasoned and had a nice hint of sour cream. Management touched our table a few times and made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. Everything was perfect. Right down to the espresso creme brulee with chocolate covered espresso beans. Total experience was 11 out of 10. We can't wait to go back! Thank you for being awesome!“

“Wonderful atmosphere! Comfortable seating. Professionally dressed, well trained, friendly staff. Our server, Elizabeth was excellent!! ⭐️“

“Our waitress was very friendly. Food was fast and portions were generous. I got the broiled platter with salad bar. The salad bar is small but well stocked and fresh. The broiled seafood was cooked through without being overdone. Decor is rustic and no frills but feels "homey". I will be back.“
