50 Best Seafood Restaurants near West Deptford

“We had a small party at Riverwinds on Saturday night. The food was excellent. However, the dessert package is a total ripoff! There was a plate of small desserts ( 1”square pieces of cake, 2 “ eclairs, a chocolate covered strawberry, and a tiny cannoli. There were not even enough for everyone to take one! When I asked for more the waitress said I should go to another table and see if they had anything! 😡😳 Definitely not worth $10 a person! RIPOFF!“

“Our first experience at a James Beard award winning restaurant (2017) and chef was incredible at Vernick Fish in Philadelphia to celebrate Trent’s graduation! I know now what this caliber of food and service means and all other restaurants pale in comparison to Vernick Fish and Greg Vernick(semi-finalist chef 2025). From the appetizers (dozen oysters from RI, MA, ME, PEI) to the drinks and main course were all uniquely exquisite and cannot be replicated anywhere else. The constant doting with new silverware at each course and cleaning of the table was undeniably royalty treatment. Even the bathroom was an experience-I need the hand lotion in my life (instantly made my hands look 30 years younger). The portions, ambiance and service were all equally perfect! I highly recommend you check out Vernick Fish. We will definitely return!“

“The Food was Fresh ad Incredible“

“I had snapper soup there. It was an 11 out of a possible 10. My wife had New England clam chowder it is (her score system) a 10 out of 10. Best ever. Unfortunately, they do not currently have snapper soup. Missing the old Bookbinder too. Signed, Old Philadelphia natives.“

“We found Pearl and Mary quite by accident while looking for out door seating so as to enjoy a beautiful Philadelphia evening. And we were not disappointed. Location; perfect, food; perfect, service; exemplary...doesn't get any better👍🏻“

“We have been wanting to go here for a while and finally snagged a reservation for my birthday! It is worth all the hype and accolades. We ordered 6 plates and it was the perfect amount. The mussels are perfection, I could eat those everyday. The cavatelli - superb! Honesty, it was all amazing. The staff is so warm, welcoming and personable too. We can’t wait to go back!“

“You probably won't have high expectations when you roll up to this place as it isn't fancy, but don't judge a book by its cover. I made the horrible mistake of eating at Pat's the other day, and the meat tasted like shoe leather. This little joint served up a perfectly seasoned hot cheesesteak and a great milkshake - I'll definitely be back.“

“As a travel agent, food is important to me. I not only book for my clients, but I also make restaurant recommendations and WOW!!!!!! This place is it 😍😍😍 I took many photos last night of the food, the atmosphere felt as though I was not in Philadelphia, but far away on a perfect vacation dining at an amazing restaurant. I'm going to post my photos on my business page, people, if you want Greek food, THIS IS YOUR PLACE ☺️ Thank you for a wonderful hospitality and an amazing time my fiance and I will never forget.“

We love this place for its unhurried atmosphere and for its timeless Americana ambience.“

“Always fresh seafood and definitely tasty!💯👌🏾“

“Great menu, nice bar scene!“

“This restaurant is tiny but mighty! The food is amazing, one of the best dishes in the city is the hoe cake and the mee caton. Also, the service was amazing, especially for a new restaurant. Every server was friendly and knowledgeable. I had two separate dinners here about two weeks apart from each other and everyone from the host to the person refilling the water was great! If you can get a reservation to this place, drop everything and go!“

We would visit again if we make it back to Philly.“

“We visited Pera and it is great to know that the restaurant met expectations and was consistent with the excellent review in the PHiladelphia Inquirer.“

“I absolutely enjoyed the hot pot here. They had a variety of meats, veggies, and seafood. Everything here is fresh, I can certainly say you get a lot for what you pay for here. The servers here are friendly and very welcoming. There is a lot of space inside the restaurant, it gives a traditional atmosphere.“

“Shout out to Jean D our waiter for the good service! My daughters and I went on our Girls Day Christmas shopping trip and always stop at the Deptford restaurant when we are done. He gave us just the right amount of attention and was very pleasant. Sometimes we feel either rushed or ignored but he made sure we were taken care at our pace. It was a great experience.“

“It’s was great jasmine is the best server“

“It's your average Hood Deli. Breaded chicken wings are to die for. No thrills, but always FRESH. Mother and Father own and run the business. Both can be a little brash but overall it's a good place to get a quick bite that isn't expensive. Never ever have to worry about the food not being fresh either.“

“The good food here is really good. The Ponza was perfect and seasoned well. My husband had the crab ravioli with pesto sauce. I'm not even a fan of pesto but this was amazing. My baby who hardly eats anything, cleared a plate of spaghetti. The only issue I had was there isn't a changing table in the restrooms. The staff was nice enough to find a room I could change my baby in but just an FYI if you have little ones.“

“My first time having their food which came highly recommended from a picky foodie, like myself! We did takeout which was fast and the young lady was extremely nice. The vegetable rice, sweet chili wings and shrimp rolls were delectable! Not one complaint! I will definitely be back!“

“You will not be disappointed, from the ambiance, the friendly, professional service and the delicious food!“

“I came here for the first time looking for good eats I looked up the reviews first and I ordered the seafood combo and my husband ordered the whiting fish platter everything was delicious I had to call them and thank them I will be coming back for more thank you guys“

“Customer service was exceptional. Seating area was a bit small but everyone was so friendly and worked as a team. Honestly the best service I ever had. I went for restaurant week and ordered the shrimp creole. Omg I cleaned my plate and was still salivating over the idea of more when I got home. My partner ordered the crab soup and the salmon. Eyes rolled in the back of his head y’all. Everything was so well and for my first time they left a lasting impression. Would definitely dine here again. I’m just disappointed the shrimp creole isn’t on the regular menu.“

“I have been going there for years in the food is always very good....“

“Great experience all you can eat“

“Our second visit to Village Deli was as good as the first time. I had the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and my wife gad the chicken salad sandwich. Both were very good. The atmosphere of the place is pleasant and the counter people were very friendly and efficient. We recommend Village Deli and will definitely return.“

“My husband and I went here for dinner tonight. We got the Stake and Crab special with garlic mashed potatoes, and grilled asparagus. Everything was delicious. The stakes were done perfect and my husband really liked the crab cake too!“

“We were there yesterday (Friday 28th)….,,, game day of course it was busy that’s expected .,,. Put our name on the list for a seat weighted and watch the game of course for three hours to find out our name was taken off the list somehow….. we are not a complaining type. I understand it’s game day things happen. It gets crazy completely understandable. Still had a fun time watching the game. !!!!! …….. but I like shout out a big thank you to Mike one of the managers there forgetting us a table and being so kind to us….. Thank you again from your Scranton Pa peeps!!!!“

“Kei Sushi is our favorite neighborhood sushi spot. We proudly bring out-of-town friends and family here to show off the quality, yet unpretentious nature, of the Philly food scene. The fish is always super fresh yet the prices are fairly reasonable. My personal favorite is their chirashi bowl — and I love that they make it kosher-style (you know you’re in Philly when this is an option already offered on the menu 😅). Overall, Kei is consistently delicious, presentation is spot on, and the atmosphere is laid back.“

“I pleasantly surprised to see a Black family greet me with a nice smile and great service abilities. I had heard of the place by my hair dresser the day before she said the food was delicious and fresh. I ordered last Saturday it was delicious. So I went back today and tried that seafood salad, jumbo shrimp and crab cakes. That seafood salad wow was delicious.“
