34 Best Seafood Restaurants in Newark

“Seafood pimps was the best decision I could had made to celebrate my 56th birthday. I decided to purchase the Nexf ix & Chill. First the presentation was SUPERB. The crabs, mussels and shrimp were FRESH and DELECTABLE. The vegetables were seasoned to perfection. least of them all the amount that you receive is enough to feed a full size family, and we only ordered for two. I will definitely be back. I recommend Seafood Pimps to anyone that enjoy fresh mouth watering seafood.“

“So far, one of the best African food spots in the Newark/Irvington area. The food is delicious, well-seasoned, and tastes very authentic. The service is also great. Definitely a place I would recommend if you are looking for quality African cuisine.“

“Best seafood I’ve had in a very long time. The scallops with pork belly is phenomenal! Even the 1 steak they offer was outstanding. Perfectly cooked at medium rare !! Great service and perfectly made Negroni’s !“

“On Saturday May 28th I had a reservation for 15 people because it was my daughter sweet sixteenth birthday dinner. The atmosphere was great, the music was a little too LOUD especially for some young children in my party and we the adults and young people we couldn’t hear each other speaking and my suggestion is to have the music at a moderate tone so we can hear each other at the table and also to make sure the waitress/waiter get the food order correct . The food was a little too salty but everything was ok“

“Great sandwiches. Definitely recommend“

“Very good food,delicious!🍗“

“Had dinner here on a Friday well before closing. Upon arrival we noticed the restaurant was not terribly busy which was a plus figuring service would be faster boy were we wrong.

The server took our order and did not return once, a different server brought out our food. We have to flag a person down to get the check and observed our served just sitting at the bar or smoking, we waited for about half an hour. It really felt like we were bothering our server.

The food was wonderful though. I would give it one more chance.“

“Amazing food, an enthusiastic and gracious host. Great live music greets you at the door. Wonderful experience!“

“This is the best Spanish food in Newark . Small , quiet neighborhood place with outstanding food and professional service. the waiter turning is zero. The same waiters at the restaurant for many years. They got me to try the goat and it was excellent........even though I'm not a fan of goat.“

“(Translated by Google) The food here is very delicious, the ceviche was perfect, I loved it, and the Quaker!!

Wow!I loved the food here it was actually delicious, the ceviche was great and the Quaker was delicious as well! Loved it!“

“Food is delicious! Service is great. Bartender is in point with mixed drinks. Dessert was omg delicious and our server Giovanni is superb“

“The Food is Fantastic and creative.“

“I got the chicken jollof. The people are very friendly and nice. Rice was just okay but the chicken was definitely very good. I would definitely want to come back but I most certainly will not. I paid $27 literally for some chicken, rice, and cabbage. Call it a portion and a half but I did eat the entire thing. Really though, I can go almost anywhere in this city and get the same, if not better, for $12-15. I’ll be honest, I am not even sure how they remain in business charging those prices to people. Well, that’s my two cents minus 2,700. Up to you if you want to give it a go.“

“Late night? Fresh? Bang for your buck? Things I never expect to go together and they hit all 3. Best 1:30am meal I’ve ordered. Best seafood soul food Alfredo platter I’ve had also (and I’ve tried a few ig chefs that do this DMV concept). Normally the Alfredo sauce is bland and flavorless with old bay being used like paprika for appearance (took my seasonings out automatically when it came) but the sauce was actually flavorful. I didn’t need to add anything. Shrimp, crab and lobster always high quality, despite the low prices. I’m shook and shocked. I’d given up on good late night eats and had given up on the crab with pasta soul food concept because it didn’t seem like the match was hitting, compared to a boil or just an Alfredo. This made me a believer????????“

“Small business with big flavor. Soul food is delicious. There is no place to really sit, so it's more of a order to go kind of place. Your favorites are served there and they do catered trays. Best of all they are offering Cheesecakes By Diamond. If you haven't tried them, then you're missing out. Stop by and check them out“

“I had two celebrations. One in March and the other in April. The service and food was excellent. The atmosphere is Spanish and so is the music for Latin lovers. The owners were very serviceable. Waiters and chef were lovely. Definitely will celebrate here again.“

“I've passed by this place on multiple occasions and finally decided to try it and it was great. I bought the hot buffalo and teriyaki flavored wings and they were great. The teriyaki was not salty but had that great flavor. The hot wings though could use more heat but have good flavor overall. I'm a heat seeker so I like big hits of spice so try at your own discretion. Overall great local wing spot, which Newark needed. If your too far from buffalo wild wings or wing stop, give panzz a try.“

“Tonight was my first time at Krugs Tavern & my burger was simply fantastic. Great atmosphere & my waitress was to die for. She was terrific, even when I noticed I forgot my sunglasses & had to go back in & retrieve them, they were on the counter. Thank you so much. 5 stars here. Take care & good luck.“

“First time customer I called in for three catfish combos and two orders of hush puppies and the food was delicious All three of us were satisfied“

“Love ❤️ Food nice in clean“

“Fomos muito bem recebidos e o serviço maravilhoso! 5 estrelas á equipa do Allegro! Estávamos de férias e adoramos que voltamos aquase todos os dias! Parabéns ao Miguel e resto da equipa!! O salmão estava delicioso e o camarão maravilhoso!! Se pudesse dar 10 estrelas dava com certeza!“

“muy buena la comida recomendable!!!!!!“

“Wonderful place and food!!!!“

“Top notch for down here in the Ironbound. The food was amazing, the service was amazing. This is not watered-down Portuguese cuisine.“

“Been coming here for a while now and the food has been amazing. The fried chicken is one of the best I’ve had in all of the east coast. They also just got BBQ Ribs and Oxtails. And they are heavenly, and full of flavors. Feels like im in a Jamaican/fried chicken cuisine. Best of both worlds.“

“I don't speak Spanish but that is how I was addressed and I wanted to know what it was she waited till the end to tell me it was $6.38

For that price I should have gotten a mixed fruit like pineapple 🍍 and orange 🍊“

“My favorite place ever . Great food and great service. Highly recommend it.“

“Awesome Food Truck, Fish Was Nice And Fresh Tasty And Enough.... Prices Are Very Reasonable Highly Recomended“

“First of all tip the staff. Far to many people dont. Second BUY FRESH AND LET THEM BATTER AND FRY. Third: GO GET YA MUSIC, dude in the front sells house music CDs YES I SAID CDs. Really cool guy. Third Get your food and go bout ya business. I have been going since my college days! So much that 1x I left my wallet on campus and they fed me anyway, I went to pay the next day and they said Oh no you ok ...“

“Our table of 4 loved everything from start to finish. My chorizos were the best I’ve ever eaten (including Spain). Dinner companion Eileen orders the shrimp in green sauce every time and is in heaven. Husband Phil’s vegetarian paella and portobello mushroom appetizer were delicious as were the table’s side dishes of green beans and carrots (perfectly cooked) and potato chips (yum). Massive entrees of which we all took portions home to enjoy as leftovers. Expert service by real waiters who knew everything and met our every dining need.“
