50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Pompton Lakes

“I was excited to get warm with soup after Pompton Lakes’ Holiday Stroll. I got the Hot Lemongrass Beef Pho. This is hands down the best pho I’ve had since leaving California. Boiling Pho is legit!! The noodles were chewy and not soggy. The beef brisket was so tender. The sliced beef was fresh. The broth was immaculate on a cold night and super flavorful. Nothing beats a good bowl of pho. I can’t wait to include this place in my weeknight dinner rotation! Thank you for the great food, atmosphere, and service!!“

“I recently ordered from The Den, it’s a charming new BYOB spot that has quickly become a favorite. The service was impeccable from start to finish; the staff was attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. As for the food, every dish was a masterpiece—beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. From the perfectly seasoned appetizers to the mouthwatering entrees, each bite was a delight. The freshness of the ingredients and the chef's skillful preparation were evident in every course. I can't recommend this place enough for anyone looking for a delicious meal in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.“

“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!)“

“Food was ok. Seafood boil was not that great. Corn was mushy, shrimp was , potatoes were a little hard, eggs were missing most of the white because I guess they couldn't peel it and one egg was not hard boiled . Whiting fish sandwich was not that good. My daughter liked the lobster roll though. Very hot in the restaurant, with flies.“

“Checked out Krios Prime last night and now I see why everyone’s talking about it. Beautiful space, great energy. The octopus was delicious, the salmon was fresh with an amazing sauce, and the homemade baklava was unreal. Highly recommend. 😋🔥“

“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 best restaurant ever delicious food,sweet service“

“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.“

“Excellent food and service always an enjoyable evening at Michael Angelo’s in Fairfield“

“The food, the service and the atmosphere are all top notch. Let me first start off by saying the bartender Zoe (spelling?) ALWAYS makes us feel welcome as if we are part of their family. The sliced filet mignon on the bone special I had the other night (recommended by Zoe!) was SPECTACULAR!! I've also have had the lamb chops in the past and they are equally as delicious. Zoe also make sure there are plenty beers on ice as soon as i arrive. she is by far the best bartender I've ever encountered and i dine out several time a week so I'm well qualified to make such a statement. Sear has become one of the stops on my dining rotation.“

“The customer service was excellent. I ordered oxtail and fried plantains. The meat was so flavorful and melted off the bone. And the fried plantains were perfectly crispy. I was excited to find a Haitian restaurant in the neighborhood. The food felt authentically Caribbean. I will certainly be coming back.“

“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“

“This was one of the best experiences I’ve had! The food was fresh, delicious, and packed with flavor. You can tell they really care about what they do. They also went above and beyond with their service and made everything feel special. I’ll definitely be ordering from them again. Highly recommend!“

“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 :)“

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

“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.“

“Thanks again for the catering. The chicken parm, francese, and sandwiches were awesome! Happy New Year!“

“Excellent food and service we love this restaurant“

“Delicious food , lunch menu available , BYOB, Liquor store within 1 minute walking distance , yummy desserts, indoor / outdoor dining, great service, reward points program 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼“

“Excellent food and service! Our order arrived quickly (in about 15 minutes) and everything including the serving size was great. The gentleman named Asif at the reception was also very friendly and courteous.

Highly recommended if you're in the area.“

“Dim sum are bigger size than normal. Like the shrimp dumplings, it's filled with shrimps and plump. Compared to Qin Dynasty across the street, they're bigger. The beef cherng fun are good too.

However, I guess these days all the dim sum are getting quite expensive.“

“Pretty good food, friendly service.“

“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.“

“lo mejor de lo mejor ❤️♥️“

“Gran experiencia el Día de la Madre en D’Carbón de Haledon. Excelente servicio! Los gestos y atenciones de las meseras realmente hacen la diferencia en una cena especial. Jhoselyn y el resto del equipo del restaurante son expectaculares en un día tan ocupado como fue el día de la madre. Esos momentos especiales en los que te sientes bien atendido y cuidado hacen que la comida sea aún más deliciosa. Se que tendré muchas más experiencias increíbles en De Carbón y seguiré disfrutando de la comida peruana junto a tu familia y amigos gracias al gran servicio! Gracias Jhoselyn por tus atenciones!“

“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“

“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 .“

“Service and food was great but was very disappointed that they don’t offer a veteran’s discount like most restaurants in the area.“

“We were so fortunate to have Culcha Caribbean bring their food truck to our Fall company bbq. Employees thanked me for getting them. They sold out before the lobster truck if that tells you anything!“

“They hooked me up! Delicious food; good portions. I usually get oxtail from Jamaican restaurants. I'd say it's one of the top of the restaurants I've eaten from.

That said, oxtail is generally an expensive meat to buy and can be hard to cook right. So, it can be difficult to find places like this that give you a decent amount. And I've orderd from them a few times, so I can say their potion size is generally consistent from what I've seen.“
