Seafood Restaurants near South Amboy

“There are a very few Chinese restaurants that are authentic so this is definitely one! We ordered the spicy tofu flavor fish which was sooo good! It was just the right spicy and flavorful. With some rice on the side, it was just perfect! We also got some beef skewers and barbecue chicken wings to go and they were great too! But the fish wins any day! :)“

“Went today for my first time. Kimberly was my server and she was amazing. Can’t wait to go back. The food and service was great!“

“Good food and atmosphere and service always on point and both courteous and prompt ….. make a an awesome Pomegranate Martini 🍸“

“Amazing great food excellent customer service my waiter had knowledge of the the items on the menu with her suggestion support it made it easy to make sure we were going to have a great experience. The food was phenomenal. I recommend 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“If you like Red lobster’s endless shrimp, this place is great with unlimited shrimp for $25 per person, but only on Monday. Shrimp tastes not too bad with 6 different dishes, including spaghetti, fried rice, coconut shrimp, shrimp tempura, sweet sour shrimp and garlic shrimp with vermicelli. You can always find one you like, I recommend coconut shrimp, sweet sour shrimp and garlic shrimp with vermicelli.

For fish, sour fish soup is their signature with different varieties of fish you can choose. A lot of vegetables in the fish soup including tofu skin, pickled cabbage, lettuce root, cucumber and enoki mushrooms. Taste not the best, but not too bad as well.

I highly recommend their desserts including red bean moon cake and sweet lotus stuffed with sticky rice, very delicious and must try!“

“Absolutely delicious! Highly recommend:)“

“Fujiya Pickled Fish is an impressive restaurant located in New Jersey. Their pickled fish fish features fresh fish meat and rich pickled cabbage soup, which is delicious and unforgettable. The environment of the restaurant is comfortable and pleasant, and the service attitude is warm and thoughtful. Whether it is a family dinner or a gathering of friends, it is an ideal choice. Recommend their other dishes as well. Overall, Fujiya Pickled Fish is a high-quality Chinese restaurant worth visiting and you will definitely not be disappointed.“

“Cute and quaint atmosphere. Friendly staff. The food is absolutely delicious! Chicken vindaloo and chicken Tikka masala. Also some spicy chili garlic Naan, butter Naan and roti. Flavorful and good portion sizes. They could stand to give a little more rice with the entree, but that doesn't take away from the quality and enjoyment of the dishes. Can't wait to return to try other menu options.“

“Host was friendly and gave us options rather than waiting so we took the high table instead of booth. Our server was amazing. Lovely lady. Shout out to Ellen G. Attentive and made us feel like we owned the place. A comfort not found in many places. She had many tables but made us feel like the only ones in her line up. Appreciate the love, Ellen. See you soon. 10/10“

“A Steak Lover's Paradise: Strickland's Steakhouse Our recent holiday dinner at Strickland's Steakhouse was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped into the elegant dining room, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Eva, our server, was truly exceptional. Her extensive knowledge of the menu and daily specials made our dining experience even more enjoyable. She was attentive, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. The appetizers were a delightful prelude to the main course. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The steaks were the highlight of the evening. The Japanese A5 Wagyu was a revelation - tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful. Every bite was pure indulgence. To top off the meal, we indulged in a variety of delectable desserts and rich coffees. The perfect ending to a perfect evening. Strickland's Steakhouse is a must-visit for any steak lover. The combination of exceptional food, impeccable service, and elegant ambiance makes it a truly memorable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning in the future.“

“Great place to have delicious food at good prices . The waitstaff was sooo friendly“

“Went for a seafood boil and food was good the flavors were good. The only problem was the girl at the front. She's frumpy looking. Acted like I was bothering her when I wanted to pay. She's so relaxed and it's not a good look to paying customers. She never came back to check on us. She just had a whatever attitude.“

“We had lunch on Saturday afternoon. I would rate the food as pretty good, and better than Red Lobster which is right across Rt. 18. However the presentation of the food leaves a good deal to be desired. They serve on paper strays with plastic spoons. Paper would be fine if it was of a higher / thicker quality. The plastic utensils would also be fine if they weren’t of the kiddie party variety. The We had soft shelled crab, fried shrimp and catfish with boiled Cajun pototes and French fries. All of the food was good, neither over cooked not undercooked. The soft shell carb was pretty good. What was annoying was that the (soupy) boiled potato(s) side dish was served in a Saran Wrap baggie tied in a knot and put in the same paper tray with the fried soft shell crab. It was hard to tear it open without spilling the contents all over the table. However the side dish potatoes were good. The problem was the plating. The French fries were also good, neither overcooked nor undercooked and tender. While the food is good you and the restaurant is decently decorated, you get the impression that they have a very very tight budget for necessities as in utensils, plates and trays. Nevertheless we will eat there again or have their food delivered. They do not have a delivery service so you must use Uber or Doordash.“

“Long time patrons but Blue Water has gone downhill over the last several years as far as seafood choices and food taste. Seafood Fra Diavolo ordered medium was tasteless and calamari were the Shop n Stop frozen rings. Key Lime pie slice the size for a mouse maybe and tasteless, no presentation like back in the day. Another “ former “ old time patron sitting next to us was furious as his swordfish was maybe 1/4” thick. We both agreed never to visit Blue Water again. We both remembered when it was the best ! My spouse and I were customers when the place would be packed now 4 tables only at 6:30pm ( guessing others feel the same) and long gone is the special menu had lobster cakes, halibut, monk fish , red snapper etc. Sadly and honestly not even better than a pizza restaurant but 3x the price. Bye Blue Water Seafood .“

“Lovely auntie makes the best samosa chaat I’ve ever had! Literally so mouthwatering“

“Our Wedding Reception was at Armory 17 years ago! We go back every year on our anniversary! And other times as well. Food is always good. Love the Rodizio! And in good weather, enjoying the delicious food outside, with sangria, is wonderful! Highly recommend it!!“

“The host Ranjitha and team deccan spice were excellent. Would recommend to everybody😊“

“Not our first redeo at this location. Previous experience was great. This time, well. We booked party of 4 and arrived first. Gentleman at checkin found our reservation and escorted us to our booth with 4 menus. He told us he would bring our guests when they arrived. Well, they seated our guests at another booth in a different section of the restaurant. 45 minutes later we figured it out. Then our waitress took our drink order. It was simple, 4 white glasses although different whites. She came back with 2 white and 2 red. Final bill was screwed up twice as well. Not counting these poor staffing issues, the food was absolutely great as always. However, with poor staff a great kitchen will have a difficult time to deliver repeat guests.“

“Came to visit a friend in NJ, they suggested this hot pot place, the soup was thick and flavorful but during our meal we ordered a chicken appetizer dish which was not available for a while per the cashier, however we were still billed for the appetizer and never gotten the dish. They were great to took it off our bill but kinda shouldn’t had it happened. Over all the food was great but the portion could have been more. We had the beef and few other dishes the most memorable was the money pouch tofu dish filled with shrimps. I guess it is a pretty decent place for hot pot after all if it was always packed and reservation is recommended.“

“The soups at Nai Brother are amazing! If you like pickled flavors, this is the dish for you. So far, we've tried the house signature and the sour pickled pepper with flounder. I highly recommend them, and we plan on going back to try more flavors. What I like best is that this dish is large enough to share.“

“It would be easy to overlook this place. It’s buried way in the back of a strip mall. The interior ambience isn’t anything to brag about, either. Yet it is a true gem with amazing food at good prices and excellent service. My wife and I each ordered pizzas. She got the 12” Chicken Pesto and I ordered the 12” Meat Lover’s. Both came out promptly. It was amazing, the best pizza I’ve had in years. I can’t say too many good things about it. Everything was in perfect harmony, a symphony of umami and cheese. Meatballs, sausage, bacon. It had it all. Each bite a delight. My wife also loved her pizza. We stopped in on a Monday on the way up north for a show. There were a few tables occupied but I would imagine it probably gets busy on weekends. Even so, I would make a point of stopping in here again next time I’m passing through the area at dinner time.“

“Best pork roll, egg and cheese around made with TLC.“

“We went out to Santini for New Years Eve had reservations for 5pm had a wonderful time, not rushed at all. Food was TERRIFIC and HOT. I recommend it to everyone.“

“good food. I like the outdoor dinning. drinks we good as well. will be back“

“We stopped in for dinner this evening (night before Thanksgiving) and we absolutely loved both the food and the service!

We had the kani salad & green salad, the fried shrimp appetizer, salmon sushi, and several special rolls - everything was fresh and very tasty with great portions!

And I would be remiss if I did not mention that our server, Chen, was an integral part of the experience and the enjoyment of our meal! She is a very welcoming host and lively conversationalist who really takes an interest in her work and her customers.

This was our first time dining here and we will certainly be back (and often)!

Parking: Parking was easy, they have plenty of spaces!“

“Justo ahora vine, a comer empanadas, y la atención de la nena fue la Mejor, tan amable, 💕💕💕“

“Tried it for the first time today. Hubby got the fried calamari and I got the fish sandwich. Both delicious and fresh.“

“First time here and great experience! Outdoor dining only. Food is unbelievably fresh and tasty! The porta potties are upgraded bathrooms and surprisingly clean. Off street parking but not bad. Outdoor patio is going to be extended over the dunes for 2025. Can't wait to go back next summer!“

“This is hands down the best restaurant in NJ right now. The 8 course tasting menu is phenomenal, each dish balanced with unique flavors and texture, and beautiful plated. Our server explained each dish in detail, was extremely knowledgeable of the ingredients and dishes, and very friendly. He consistently topped off our drinks as needed and meticulously provided a new place setting for each course. The ambiance was very relaxing as we sat on the 2nd floor, with beautiful hip, modern decor. I was particularly intrigued by the faucet in the bathroom which was very unique. The overall attention to detail from the concept and design to the food and service is what sets it apart. Fine dining at its best with a relaxed atmosphere that easily compares to a Michelin star restaurant.

Free on site parking is available and it is a BYOB. A liquor store is conveniently located next door in case you forget to bring your libations.“

“The service was really excellent. The food was delicious. I was having a party for a member of my staff and it could not be more perfect.“

“One of the best dim sum restaurant in Central Jersey! Lunch time is highly recommended. On the weekend, they bring food on a cart and you can pick whatever you want to eat. Everything is so tasty and we love it! Price is very reasonable. You can also order from Entree menu, which is also delicious.
It gets very crowded on weekend lunch time, so recommend going as soon as they open at 11:30am.“

“best fried shrimp in the state“

“Great food. Great service“

“Excellent service and good food 🍱“

“Outstanding vibe and great service. Our server was Christina and she was extremely pleasant, had a great personality and seemed very happy to be working there. They also had a guitar player who played wonderfully and wasn’t overpowering so you can still chat with your table. Very satisfied with the food so compliments to the back staff. It’s very obvious the management runs a well organized restaurant so 👍👍. Just an awesome experience and we all look forward to heading back. Thank you all!“

If you have never dine here before then you are certainly missing out. Cucina is our go to! Best food in town by a long shot 🙌🏼“

“So the food was really good, The only problem I had was that I ordered fried rice without onions, and they even wrote it on the receipt no onions, but still decided to add it in there, I completely understand if you can”t order it without but it was just tedious having to pick through it, but I would recommend this place“

“Beautiful atmosphere friendly wait staff delicious appetizers and even better main course next up vanilla crème brûlée“

“En una reunión amena en familia.“
