29 Best Seafood Restaurants in Jersey City

“Stellar service! Will definitely be back.“

“🌟 A Hidden Gem That Hits Every Note of Excellence 🌟 From the instant we walked in, we weren’t just welcomed—we were embraced. David, the manager, leads with heart and precision. His cheesecake? Honestly, a revelation. Ruben brought effortless charm and made us feel like VIPs all evening, while Maria’s radiant warmth made the entire experience feel like a celebration. 🍽️ The food was flawless from start to finish. We opened with crab cakes—crispy, golden, and packed with flavor—and grilled octopus so tender it practically melted. My salmon had the perfect crisp and was paired with velvety mashed potatoes. My sister’s seafood platter was generous and bold in flavor, and my niece’s shrimp scampi? Let’s just say I couldn’t keep my fork off her plate. 🎶 The ambiance wrapped it all together—inviting, vibrant, and relaxed. We lingered, laughed, and truly felt at home. 💖 To David, Ruben & Maria: You didn’t just serve us—you made us feel seen. This is what hospitality should look like. 🔥 This was my first visit, and it set the bar HIGH. A local treasure we’ll support again and again. HIGHLY recommended—bring the family, bring your appetite, and bring your heart. ❤️“

“The New England Clam Chowder with crab added to it was TO DIE FOR….. Got a container at The Herald Square Market to eat when i got home and I was in Heaven with every bite! Fresh and creamy, awesome taste and the crab meat added just intensified the experience! I’m visiting New York from TN and it was one of my best meals so far! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“

“The food was magnificent! The owner engaged in conversation with us. The striped bass was out of this world! I will definitely come back.“

“I love this company because it's convenience of being close in NJ, the company sells to individuals customers most only sell to business. I bought Saba mackerel and tobikko it was better and fresh or as good as in any high end Sushi restaurant. I can't wait to order again and the minimum to order is $40 and close enough to pickup in Jersey City. ty Jorge Alonso.“

“Stumbled on this absolutely amazing little gem of a place. Wildly generous portions. Had the boil with snow crab, shrimps, corn and sausage. Perfect spice level. Tastiest boil I’ve ever had. Do yourself a favor and skip hook and reel and order take out here. Will come back without a doubt.“

“Had a wonderful time here for my birthday yesterday! Service and food were excellent, especially this tuna tar-tare Roxy-style with whipped avocado and caviar. The management also went out of their way to make my night, which I really appreciate. The Roxy continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in town!“

“They are rescuing Newark Ave. Absolutely the finast dinner. Those in the CourtHouse neighborhood should make Yub's 78 a regular stop.“

“This place is so romatic and the staff and food are great. We left happy and ready to return soon.“

“I've been looking forward to trying this restaurants menu items. yesterday was only the 1st, for sure. I had a shrimp po boy, perfect, packed with shrimp, just the right sauces, really good. I took home a container of their vegan lentil soup which is better than my lentil soup. that's not a small thing. beautifully balanced flavor, really delicious. I can't wait to go back and try everything else.“

“good food . great service . Art is amazing. found out new spot. brought me back to Mandaue city .across Central school . lol“

“The Seafood Factory is fantastic! Their menu features incredibly fresh and flavorful dishes. From juicy shrimp to perfectly cooked fish, every bite is a treat. Great quality and a welcoming atmosphere make it a top choice for seafood enthusiasts.“

“Very good tacos at a very fair price. These are probably some of the best seafood tacos I’ve ever had, even better than once I’ve had in California or Mexico. The large shrimp with cheese taco is by far my favorite, the ceviche is also good, and the restaurant itself is always packed with a lot of energy. I’ve ate in there in person, I’ve only ever picked up food, which is very efficient with them and fairly quick.“

“The Hot & Sour Veg Soup is a delightful start to the meal. Just the right amount of spice and tang. A bowl full of warmth!“

“Great food, great atmosphere and great service.. I’m coming back and bringing friends and family! I definitely recommend it!“

“The food drinks and views are excellent… can’t wait to go back and bring friends!!“

“Amazing prime rib with incredible au jus! The risotto was a hit, and the calamari was tender and delicious. The spaghetti with shrimp was the only miss, and the chicken Parmesan could’ve been crisper. Still, with great service, solid drinks, and a lively vibe, it’s definitely worth a visit — reservations recommended!“

“This in my favorite fish market/ restaurant in NJ. The food is always delicious, size of the servings is generous, service impeccable and priced so reasonable. They even helped carry the food to my car. They serve the best fried shrimp and bronzini that I have ever tasted.“

“Tasty food & affordable! Commendable!“

“Everything tasted amazing!!!!! the crab rangoons are so delicious and perfectly flavored, it is a treat every time i order them for an amazing price too!!! the sesame chicken had a great flavor and is not too sweet, the general tso chicken is perfectly spicy and tender. there are no little crumbly pieces as i would usually get at most take out!! the coke cans (diet) were nice and cold, and the veggie low mein noodles were perfectly dry and flavorful and HOMEMADE? (although the lettuce is weird sorry). the dumplings in chili oil taste super authentic and have a greattttt flavor. i loved everything here and i would order 10000 percent again. never change !! (besides the lettuce)

Vegetarian options: all the tofu options are sooo delicious!! super crispy and delicate.“

“Super yummy! Nice service to the customers❤️“

“I just ate the best Egyptian seafood in my life. When eating out, I normally turn to my mom and tell her “You make it better at home, mom.” I couldn’t do that here. Up until two hours ago I believed my mom makes the best Egyptian seafood.

Anything you get would be delicious but I had grilled and fried fish with rice, shrimp soup, fried calamari, fried shrimp, and linguine with shrimp.

Everything has a beautiful flavor and even the fish itself tastes fresh and delicious. MashaAllah, Allahumma Barik. May Allah bless their business with his provision and grant them reward and success for the beautiful work they do here.“

“Everything served at this restaurant is amazing. My father has been taking use there for years. I go every Wednesday for the Sango de Cameron, and ceviche. Prices are way more than reasonable for the quality of the food that’s prepared for you. Definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for an awesome meal, ease on the pockets, and more importantly cleanliness, and great hospitality.“

“Morning, noon, and night, always a ton of fun. Stopped by for breakfast this morning and what a deal. Egg sandwich on a roll with sausage for $8?! Beautiful.

Great indoor/outdoor spot with plenty of doggos enjoying the sun. They also have a great happy hour and lunch/dinner menu from Lighthorse Tavern.“

“Amazing and fresh food!!! A staple in my local restaurants and will always come back. Friendly staff is a plus and the experience will make you feel at home.I also had the pleasure of trying their newest addition to the restaurant, which is their smoothie/ juice bar.“
