50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hoboken

“This is such a lovely place with a warm, friendly ambience. I brought my son here on Christmas Eve, and we had a lovely time. The chocolate martinis are amazing and the wine list is very good. We started with perfectly chilled and delicious oysters and then enjoyed aranciata with crab and a lovely lobster pasta dish. The vibe is inviting for families with young children as well and there is also a nice bar for adults only. This is a great place that I will return to soon !“

“The lobster roll from Angelo Seafood Market is absolutely fantastic! The lobster meat is fresh, tender, and generously portioned—sweet and perfectly cooked with that signature ocean-fresh flavor. It’s lightly dressed, allowing the natural richness of the lobster to shine through without being overpowered by mayo or seasoning. The roll itself is buttery, toasted just right, and adds the perfect crunch to every bite.

Everything tastes incredibly fresh, and you can tell this place takes real pride in their seafood. It’s a true hidden gem for anyone who loves authentic, no-frills, high-quality lobster rolls. Highly recommend stopping by for one—you won’t be disappointed! 🦞“

“Never disappointed when we eat here. My boys and I will try something different every time we come but my husband loves the Garlic and Oil Pasta and he gets it every time.(No protein added since he says it spoils it.) I do believe his heart would be broken 💔if it ever comes off of the menu.“

“A huge thank you to our server Jorge, he was amazing! had an excellent recommendation to my dinner dish tonight and honestly, it should come that way on the menu!!! the pasta and mushrooms with the creamy truffle sauce with breadcrumbs on top!!!! My man Jorge is the best, thank you sir for an amazing night for myself and my two sisters. much love to our PR dude from the three michiganders ✋️❤️🇵🇷“

“Great pizza, service was excellent.“

“Honestly can’t fault this place. The food is amazing—authentic, flavorful, and truly made with care. The service is unbelievable. We went with a group of six and ordered the chicken biryani family-style, asking for one level down from our usual spice tolerance, and it was absolutely phenomenal—perfectly balanced and still full of flavor. Definitely coming back again!“

“Fantastic oysters in both quality and selection. Staff is casual and friendly. The kitchen is competent and there are good non shellfish items including a decent burger. However I found my strip steak lacking and though I was told it was a Pat LA Frieda steak, it was not the quality steak I've enjoyed from him before.“

“Amazing views of NYC and beautiful decor inside Halifax! From a cool bar with creative cocktails to a dining room where the food and service is top notch! Beautiful outside dining is also available in warmer months . Stay over at the W and go for their Brunch!! best brunch in Hoboken!“

“Excellent service great ambiance and excellent food!“

“Excellent and comfortable affordable“

“One of New York’s hidden secrets. Not to be missed.“

“This establishment is everything! From the time I entered the service was impeccable. I had the seared Bass w/Copolini and the Crab Spring Rolls. 5 stars, a must when in NYC.“

“Great time with my family for lunch, great food and great atmosphere but our waitress Abby gets the 5 Stars for service (Awesome Abby 🤩)“

“Food and drinks were absolutely delicious and the staff was lovely! So patient and attentive, would definitely go back again.“

“The autumn salad was amazing!!“

“Food was delicious! Had the Bronzino which came with the sayadeya rice. The fish was so delicious, perfectly seasoned. The unexpected star of the show was the grilled octopus which was so soft and juicy… not chewy at all and lots of flavor. Maybe the best i’ve had. Friendly Egyptians. The service and atmosphere fits the vibe, very casual spot. Food was served quickly. Will be back!“

“Mermaid, whether this location or others, has really fresh and tasty seafood. This location is very convenient being off of (not in) Times Square. I love going there for their small bites during their happy hour, which does include weekends! They have far more than oysters and I love their clam chowder, raw fish dishes like tartar, and lobster knuckles.“

“Creative fun dishes and bev list.“

“Great experience everything was perfect 😍“

“Nice atmosphere, very professional and friendly staff. Best caviar and great gourmet food selections.“

“Most amazing seafood. Go for happy hour. Get all the oysters. The lobster pasta made my husband weak in the knees. He won't stop talking about the olive brine Bloody Mary. THE BEST.“

“We came at 5 PM on a Wednesday and it was calm and peaceful. The food tasted clean with a focus on the ingredients natural flavor. The chicken was fried very well and it's taste was fairly light with a hint of MSG. The galbi-jjim was tender and youll find yourself dipping it back in the sauce after each bite. Nothing was excessive in flavor which might be a downside for someone expecting heavy pocha style flavors. Even the kimchi wasn't too sour and had a crunch to it. It's unique and healthy, plus the place is gorgeous and a great place for a date.“

“Food was good and very fresh.“

“Beautifully prepared delicious food!!“

“Kann ich nur empfehlen, in Service, Preis und Geschmack nahezu unschlagbar! Seiten so gut in NYC gegessen, sei es Seafood oder auch Anderes. Bei uns waren es: Appetizer: Spanish Octopus Entrée: Bone-In NY Strip Dessert: NY Cheesecake P.s.: Es gibt auch vegetarische Gerichte.“

“Loved the tasting menu experience! Such an active kitchen and everything tasted amazing. I also ordered the lobster pot pie from the a la carte menu and the kitchen was able to fit it in before dessert. Great dinner! The flavor profiles were really blended. Loved small aspects like the coconut snow and the ginger granita.“

“"Outstanding food and presentation. The service was fantastic, especially from the hostess“

“San Sabino in New York gets a solid 4 out of 5 from me. The food was tasty and fresh and compared to their sister restaurant is definitely more fish forward. I made a point to try some of their most popular dishes. The lobster ravioli was flavorful and well executed. The cheese appetizer was balanced and nicely presented, though I would probably pass on it next time. The star of the night was the spicy tuna appetizer, which really stood out in both flavor and texture. The decor is beautiful and creates a great atmosphere, and the service was friendly throughout the meal. Overall, a very enjoyable experience.“

“Loved this place, coming back to NYC just for this restaurant!“

“amazing authentic chinese food“

“Nice location and friendly staff, reasonable menu“

“Last night We came to eat at Mission Ceviche for the first time and we left very happy for the incredible quality of food and service. 100% recommended with a tremendous desire to return soon. Good service and everyone very friendly I had a very wonderful birthday.“

“Great food and drinks! A big pricey, but worth it!“

“Happy hour (5-7), followed by dinner at Upstate New York Craft Beer & Oysters in the East Village.

It’s a tiny place; we got there at 5pm and it was packed (and loud) by 7pm.

All their fish is bought at the market every day so the menu varies.

We had the grilled tuna with wasabi mashed potatoes & bok choy and the seared diver scallops over roasted vegetables with a prosciutto butter sauce, along with a French rosé.

Everything was delicious and the service was great too. Make sure you have a reservation.“

“We came here for Valentine’s Day dinner and had a great experience overall. The food was delicious across the board, and the service was attentive and welcoming. Our only small note is that the portions felt a bit on the smaller side, but the quality and presentation were excellent.“

“The food is incredible! Casual but impeccable sums up the menu, atmosphere, and experience. Moina served us and is exceptionally pleasant and knowledgeable. This is a must when in Fort Greene!! Don’t skip the oysters, the broccoli salad, or the shrimp loaf!“

“I had a wonderful time, the food was delicious, strong drinks. Plenty of food, beautiful restaurant. Definitely worth it. Plus we got a little loud and they were fine with it. Didn’t feel threatened lol“

“I have to say for the small amount of food the prices are a bit high.
The calamares were good, but the cheese plate i wasn't happy with it. They gave me 3 very tiny thin slices of hard white cheese, 1 very small brie, 2 dry pieces of white bread, 1 dry piece of priciutto and what I mostly did not like was the 2 slices of mortadella meat. They could have given a better meat choice also instead of dry bread water crackers would be a better choice.
That's just cheap meat to me. Usually when I order a charcuterie plate I am satisfied. This was not satisfying.
My husband had the burger he said it was OK.
Nothing to brag about.
The Tin building inside has a nice vibe.
Other than that I felt like when I was in France. Very little food with high prices.
The server was kind.“

“excellent, sat at bar, impressive food, look forward to returning“

“If you haven’t dined at Estiatorio Milos, you are genuinely missing out. I ordered the sashimi platter, oysters, and the bone-in filet. Everything was delicious and incredibly fresh. The menu has something for everyone, whether you’re in the mood for seafood or a solid cut of meat.

The service matches the quality of the food, attentive and welcoming from the moment you walk in. It’s the kind of dining experience that reminds you what hospitality is supposed to feel like.

Hudson Yards has no shortage of dining options, but Estiatorio Milos consistently delivers. Already planning my next visit.“

“We lived in nyc for 30 years. Recently moved to DE. God only knows how much we miss the nyc culture. Nothing holds a candle to it. Thank you Aaron for such a delightful lunch today at your restaurant. Best Manhattan I’ve had in a long long time! You were so attentive and accommodating. Service the best! Thank the kitchen for the great food also! Will be back soon with our nephew and his spouse!“

“This is a magical spot. I’ve had dinner here twice, most recently for their Sunday Supper. The food was excellent across the board — in addition to the three courses included with the meal, we had the pearled barley with burrata and the bone marrow with mashed potatoes. The three of us couldn’t agree on what we loved the most. My personal favorites were the bone marrow and the chicken soup with cilantro and lime (would pay $$$$$ for that soup the next time I’m sick).

Don’t sleep on Ilis for a light dinner and drinks. Even if you’re not doing the full tasting menu, this place offers so much for you to try that you likely won't find anywhere else. As someone who has sat at the bar many times, I’d say that the cocktails are on par with bars like Maison Premiere and Please Don't Tell (all the drinks are excellent but don’t miss the Carajillo!). And the a la carte menu offers dishes that are consistently delicious and interesting. It’s a BEAUTIFUL restaurant that’s been meticulously crafted, and everyone who works here is really knowledgeable and friendly.“
