50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Oakland

“Huge portions of great food! Salads w/spectacular dressing lead to enormous, expertly-prepared steak, chicken and seafood entrees!“

“From the moment we walked in, the host greeted us like old friends and walked us right to our table — I instantly had a good feeling, and I was right. Our server was awesome — super friendly, knew the menu inside out, and was on top of everything all night.

The menu is classic Italian but with a twist — way more interesting than your standard North Jersey Italian spot. The ossobuco was fantastic (if I had to nitpick, I’d say the risotto could’ve used a touch less water and a heavier hand with the parm). The clams were fresh and baked to perfection, and my son devoured his ravioli. For dessert, the bread pudding was absolutely unreal — honestly worth the trip alone.

Safe to say we’ll be regulars!“

“the services is wonderful, the food very delicious, I felt like in Egypt. I love it soooo much“

“A fantastic seafood restaurant. Definitely will be returning.“

“We seated ourselves at a table , rang the bell for service and within 10 minutes had our drinks. Orders taken and wheeled to us in 10 minutes. The spring rolls with shrimp are yummy, my Pho had a wonderful rich flavor, the reg size was large enough. Will be going back, Gloria our server was fantastic, polite, with a welcoming smile. Thank you for a delicious meal“

“this place never disappoints. good service, good food. good event. I almost go at least 2xs a month. became one of my FAVORITE PLACES“

“Yes..Staff, Service and Food always great! Have been dining here since they opened. We enjoy the Jekyll and Hyde calamari and the spiedini appetizers. Anton makes a great rack of pork and filet mignon. We ended with cappuccinos which hit the spot. 👍👍👍👍👍“

“Great food, all tasted fresh and didn't disappoint..we ordered the dinner for 2 that included 4 choices of cold starters and calamari that melts in your mouth and the salad was so good and the mix kebab and koftas over rice was good too..will definitely recommend and we shall be back! 😋“

“Very nice atomosphere. Everybody friendly Food was quick and drinks where amazing“

“Finally found a fish spot in Jersey that doesn't use frozen fish from a bag that you can get in ShopRite.

Very humble team that provides great customer service.

The seafood is fried to perfection - but it could use some salt. If they start making their own tartar sauce and hot sauce, this place is gonna be packed!

Still worth a visit, although I would just stick to the seafood until they start tightening up the sides with more experience cooking soul food staples.

Definitely worth a visit.“

“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!)“

“We tried No. 12 as a new restaurant for a date night. We enjoyed the mystery of how to enter and were pleasantly surprised by the ambiance. Our appetizers and meal selections were delicious as we tried the ceviche, empanadas, quinoa salad, and octopus. I was happy that they were able to accommodate me as I am dairy and gluten free. We will definitely be back.“

“Outrageous food, I had the veal chop and it was delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.“

“If you haven't been to Sear in Little Falls yet, go. And when you do, hope you get ZOE!
Stopped in for happy hour last Friday and she set the whole tone — knew exactly what to recommend, kept the drinks coming, and made it one of those nights where you end up staying way longer than you planned. No rushing you out, just solid service and good energy. Sear's already a great spot but she's the reason I'm already thinking about going back.“

“Jasmin and Ely made this experience extra special! They were so friendly and attentive. The drinks kept coming and our plates stayed full. The food is always amazing and the guys who bring out the food are friendly and generous. This was my first time at this location and it didn’t disappoint.

I will return again. Clean, well maintained and spacious. Salad bar was fresh and the restrooms were very clean.“

“Buonasera is our go to place to eat! It's great to bring friends to, great to have a date night, great for girls or guys night, just super great! The food is FANTASTIC! After going there for years and really enjoying everything my new crave is the Caprese Tower and the Calamari and Shrimp Fra Devraj. Although honestly, you can't go wrong with anything. Did I mention BYOB :)“

“Monica‘s restaurant is a great place to eat delicious food. Very friendly professional, hard-working staff.“

“The decor at this morsel of Costa Rican culture is aesthetically pleasing and if you’re in the area, this is one of the better Tico spots. We watched Costa Rica beat Paraguay in a Copa America game while eating pupusas, un Casado and Tacos Ticos and totally hit the spot. Especially since they served some salsa Lizano on the side.“

“I love Ferati’s - The food is delicious, service is great, they are very accommodating shud I request a little change in Preparation.“

“Ate here for the first time with my sisters, and we had a fantastic experience. Our server, cherrylynn, gave us a run down of the menu and was very attentive. We had the jerked chicken wings and yuca fries and were in love. Would be dining here again“

We ordered a few appetizers and everything was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly done. The service was excellent, super attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better.

“I visited Maza yesterday and had a fantastic experience! The Pakistani food was incredibly delicious, authentic, and packed with flavor. On top of that, the portion sizes were very big and generous for the price. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone and will definitely be coming back!“

“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.“

“I and my whole family have been going here for the last 20 years. The food is consistently excellent the service is impeccable and his family are like my family.

I would always drive way out of my way if I had to to come to Bella Notte“

“Excellent food and service we love this restaurant“

“I love ordering from here on weekends! They have a solid account with the eat24 app, which makes ordering really easy. My favorite dish is the pernil (roasted pork), but the res guisada (beef stew) is also delicious. The food is just as good as homemade. Oh, and that banana shake!!. Delicious.“

“A bonafide chinese takeout restaurant:

Classic menu,clean kitchen,tasty/quality ingredients and not dripping with grease.

Still ordering and searching through the menu to find where they really shine. So far everything has been great.

their BONELESS SPARE RIBS & Chicken stick are a must.

Spare ribs are the meaty,irregular shaped, crispy/charred, dark red chunks of juicy meat type. This vs the long rectangular strip type covered in sweet red sauce(which has its moments too)

Just a sucker for Chicken on a stick, and Great Wall’s is approved .“

“Honestly, I wasn't expecting much since the price was comparatively low but was surprised by the taste and quality. This was a delivery order, and all the items I ordered were packed well and tasted really good. Would definitely order again.“
