50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Lake Hiawatha

“We ordered a family BBQ platter with Biryani Rice. This is our first BBQ platter order from this restaurant and in this trip. Later we dined BBQ platters from two other places and compared this one with other.

In terms of food quantity and quality both, it was really good. BBQ was served in a large tray on top of Biryani Rice. Salad and yogurt sauce (raita) were served separately in big servings.

We were the last customers to enter the place very close to the last hour. They were gracious enough to accept our order.“

“apps were good, service was even better. live atmosphere on a Friday evening to boot.“

“Really great food. Great 👍cinnamon iced tea. Amazing food. The seafood boil had me salivating at sight. And it lived up to expectations when I ate it. Would have liked some music at a low volume. I can hear everything in the restaurant. Server was on point.“

“This was my second visit to The Capital Grille, and the experience remains flawless. I went with the classic filet mignon paired with their mashed potatoes. The steak was cooked to absolute perfection, incredibly tender and flavorful. The mashed potatoes are spectacular—so rich and creamy. The service maintains its usual gold standard: highly attentive and professional. The consistency in quality justifies the cost. Excellent!“

“Had the pleasure of eating at Giorgio"s last night before a show at SPAC. Service was outstanding, menu explained and food was excellent. From our salad, entree and desert everything was outstanding. I highly recommend it but please not before a show I may now get a reservation again.“

“Where can one find fish fresher than at this restaurant that is a fish market during the day? In my opinion, nowhere in this area does the seafood in this area compare.\n\nThis is our third time here in four weeks, and they haven’t disappointed us. Incredible service with an extensive menu at fair prices, this place is a must to try.\n\nKenny, not sure if he’s the manager, apologized for running out of steamers. He assured us that if I call in advance to reserve, he will hold an order for me.\n\nWe shall return!!“

“They have the best social hour!! The food is amazing and the atmosphere is great!!!“

“We were staying at the Parsippany Hilton where Ruth Chris is located. Service was superb. Our server, Garett, was very attentive. He also had a pleasant personality. We chose to order the Ruth Chris Classic which includes appetizer, entree and dessert. Good choice financially. The only thing that I would do differently the next time is to omit the butter on my food choices. Items were swimming in butter. Too much for me.“

They have lobster, steak, fish such as chillean sea bass, salmon, fresh rainbow trout. They also have great salads and entrees. Service was nice too. Reasonably priced given the taste, setting and fresh ingredients. Easy to access from route 10. Recommend a visit!“

All of the dishes were well prepared, very tasty and the service was great. The manager is very friendly with a good sense of humor. Definitely worth going to. As a bonus their happy hour drinks and menu is excellent.“

“Don Pepe never disappoints! Their food is absolutely amazing, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and service you receive. I ordered a calamari to go, and the bartender (a super friendly guy) was fantastic. He was incredibly nice and even threw in a huge piece of bread—easily 10 inches long! Definitely enough for leftovers, which was a nice surprise. The little details like this make the experience even better. I’ll definitely be back!“

“We needed a reservation for a pretty large group. Multiple restaurants in the are would not accommodate. I called Miller's Ale House and was able to speak with a manager who made the reservation for our group. 2 months later, we arrive, the manager was phenomenal! The service amazing. The waitress, the best! The food- zero complaints! I highly recommend this restaurant. They absolutely nailed it and it made a huge difference in our evening! Thank you!!“

It’s always wonderful to have someone who genuinely seems to care about their guests. She is definitely an asset to the restaurant, Thank you for the excellent service!“

“After months of hearing Chengdu 23 advertised on 105.5 WDHA, my wife and I decided to try it this evening. we were not disappointed! From the minute we walked in the door, our experience was 100% positive. The service was fast, courteous, and intuitive. The food was sublime. This is not your run of the mill Chinese food restaurant. I rate it seven out of five stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (I never claimed to be a math whiz!)“

“I’m not sure what it is but the couple of times we order from here they somehow mess the order. Just today I order something so simple yet they gave me a small instead of large. They didn’t over charge me but I order a large for a reason.“

“Very nice and great food they are super friendly“

“I have been here before and was pleased with the food and service. It was just as good this time. Fast service and so many food choices for any diet. Most of the food is already prepared. You see what it really looks like instead of pictures. Serving sizes always leaves something to take home. In addition to Thanksgiving dinner I had lunch for two days. Prices are reasonable.“

“Delicious flavorful but not greasy and light. Very prompt service. Had a construction plaster smell but the neighboring unit just had new tenants so presumably their construction was infiltrating the air system. Otherwise nice open airy place. All about the food. DELICIOUS!“

“Best Shrimp with String Beans I’ve had in a long time! The portions are generous, and the shrimp are actually large, not the tiny ones you find elsewhere. The sauce is savory with just a hint of sweetness and ginger . Perfect over a bowl of steamed white rice!!“

“This place is TOP SHELF. Went twice this past week and honestly feel there is NO place in the area that comes remotely close to this restaurant! I moved from Bergen County and until now, could not find that rare combination of quality food, CLEAN and attentive , personable staff. The seafood is AMAZING. I’ve heard some comments in reference to the owner….guess what…he’s doing a whole lot of right, maybe you just don’t know the difference.“

“Lovely establishment with delicious food and top notch service“

“Good food, friendly, knowledgeable staff!“
