50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Absecon

“This place is the best!!! Best seafood I’ve ever had. Fresh. Definitely stop by here!! They have a beautiful dining setup too!“

“Last night we dined here and everything was excellent, from the service to the food, only thing we didn’t care for and was disappointed in was the crème brûlée, it’s not your typical traditional crème brûlée but everything else was wonderful. Will be back for sure!“

“In my humble opinion, I must state that my total experience at this “Exceptional Restaurant “ was 10 STARS! The staff greeted when I arrived with a smile and I must admit that the CRAP TRAP has a philosophy of making sure you will have an individual who is a Professional who will advise you and answer any questions about their “SUPERIOR” menu! Our waitress never missed a beat when it came to advising me the in her opinion, I should choose their famous Crab Cake that was stuffed with crab and no fillers! One thing that you will observe, their salad was so fresh and the rolls & muffins were homemade & hot! You have several choices of side dishes & I selected the apple sauce that had to be prepared in house, and the frech fries were crispy and also seasoned perfectly! Our table was spotless, and the whole restaurant had a staff who never rushed you, but was always there to refill you water! I have dined in 5 Star Restaurants on my vacations & business trips, and all I must state is for being my 1ST Visit to the CRAP TRAP, I plan to make it a weekly location and a priority on my “Schedule”! I have wanted to dine there before, but I can add there parking lot suggested that there was a long wait, When I entered, I was so impressed by the size of the inside accommodation! I must apologize for my velours review, but I truly feel that this restaurant is a “GEM”“

“I’ve been dying to try this place since seeing it featured on Triple D and it did not disappoint. Great atmosphere and the food was off the charts. Definitely try the snapper turtle soup. I also had the chipotle shrimp salad sandwich which is a home run.“

My personal favorite was mac'n'cheese and coleslaw, it was exactly how I like it. Catfish was delicious as well! We did wait about 30 mins but it was totally worth it! Sylvia's has nothing on them! ❤️“

“I REALLY HOPE THE CLAM SHACK IS NOT CLOSE FOREVER!! YOU GUYS ARE ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS I COME TO ATLANTIC CITY!!

PLEASE COME BACK!!..lol Kelly I told you to come up North y'all would put seafood business up there out of business I LOVE YOU GUYS I HOPE ALL IS WELL???“

“I go to Casino Lobster for several reasons: 1. Locally owned business, supporting LOCAL economy. 2. Quality. Indisputable. 3. Selection. If it comes from the sea, they have it. 4. Value. Competitive prices. 5. Availability. They have it. It is in stock. 6. Service. They want your business because they are always friendly and helpful. These are 6 reasons why I shop for seafood at Casino lobster first. Oh, while I am praising Casino Lobster…. Where do you think that the seafood at the grocery store comes from, and how long did it take to get there???? Now you know.“

“My first time and I’ll definitely be back. I had the Connecticut roll and it was very good. Comparable in size and amount of meat to Quincy’s but a little cheaper. I was greeted warmly and offered a frequent buyer card.“

“The Branzino, melt in your mouth explosion of well balanced culinary experience. The wait teams are very well coordinated and genuine which enhances the ambiance. You will miss something special should you not experience this at least once.“

“First, I want to say… whatever shucker’s needs to do to keep Zach, pay him.

The best experience I’ve had at the shore. Drinks were absolutely perfect. I was welcomed like I was a local and put on to everything else in the area. I’ll be back to margate based on the service. The food is priced perfectly, the drinks are perfect.

We usually go to Delaware beaches and Atlantic City almost ruined coming back.

Glad I stopped by. Spin the wheel.

Thank you!! Zach(k?) completely saved my weekend.“

“The food was delicious! Outstanding service as well! Large portions and the desert was exceptional! Would definitely go back!“

“Had the flounder sandwich a few days ago. Now I'm craving it. I want to try everything there. So good.“

“The meal was delish. Everyone was super nice and wished me a happy birthday. We got to try the main things and here's what I recommend: wagyu meatballs were fantastic (nice acidity, good mix of flavors, cheese complimented the savory aspect), beef Wellington (it melted in my mouth and I dont normally like the taste of mushrooms however I didnt mind it at all), sticky toffee pudding (I'm diabetic and had to remind myself to stop eating after 3 bites - it wasnt too sweet, nor sticky but perfect blend and fulfilling)“

“Steve and Cookies is our go-to for special occasions! We just had my husband’s 40th birthday dinner and it was delicious as always with a kind and efficient waitstaff. Will always recommend!“

“Amazing food, excellent staff. Comfortable inside and outside seating.“

Make sure you make reservations but once you eat here you will understand why as it’s a one of a kind experience ! Five stars all around !“

“A great little place right on the bay. Whether the place is active and lively or slow and chill you'll be sure to find good food, good drink and good company. My personal favorite is the kielbasa.

“Best Soul Food that I’ve ever had. Huge portions We got the steamers as an appetizer, served in a perfect garlicky broth. We had a fun and energetic server, named Ray. I was debating between the fried chicken or the smothered pork chop and he said “well, Popeyes is everywhere, get the Pork chop” The pork chop did not disappoint! Perfectly seasoned, crispy smothered in gravy and onions. For sides, we both got the Collard Greens, I got the yams and my husband got Mac and Cheese. Best Collard Greens ever! It was Mother’s Day weekend so was very busy… but all and all worth the wait and a fantastic experience.“

“Best wonton, egg rolls, general tofu, fried dumplings, etc all of it. It's all so good. Highly recommended.

“Dined at Sugar Hill by the water last night for the first time. Service and food was excellent, ambiance was nice. I thought it would be nice if they had little lights at the tables and maybe a fire pit. Sugar Hill is like the Hamptons, from the stately inn to the valet parking definitely will return.“

“We had another great meal at the Cove Sat. Night Sushi for me, chicken ch steak for the hub! excellent! The staff as well!“

“Always consistently good food.“

“Went here for my daughters bday to sit outside near the water. Very nice patio with live band, corn hole, and small beach on the bay. Food and service were okay. Thought they would have a better menu for the outside area because the indoor menu looks much bigger. Whatever it was a nice place to hang for the evening.“

“Good service good food ,nice cold beers“

“I can't wait to go back. We had Vietnamese fried spring rolls and curry pho with sweet potato clear noodles, shrimp, veggies, and pork wontons. It's true that you wait for your food but it's oh....so....worth it. Fresh ingredients really shine through. I live about an hour away and will go back for my birthday next month. We're talking flavorful beyond my expectations.“

“We ate there last night. It is an upscale restaurant with white table clothes. You should eat on the patio facing the marina. Two of our dishes were very good- the flounder and the lobster ravioli. They had Slacktide Pale Ale on draft, which is great. You need reservations here, even during the week (in-season.)“

“Food and service was excellent. Look forward to going back again soon. You won’t be disappointed“
