“The food was so flavorful yet not heavy at all. The curry shrimp was super fresh and delicious; it went so well with my sweet plantain and steamed cabbage. I'm extremely satisfied.

P.s. there were so many more shrimps underneath the cabbage just in case you thought the serving wasn't enough lol“

“I attended a fabulous brunch for Black Women New Jersey, #BWNJ on Saturday.
My first experience at this establishment and I can't say enough positive things about the Food, atmosphere, staff and excellent service.
And the owner is a Weequahic High School Alumni, Go Indian, Orange and Brown. So hard to be a Weequahic Indian!
Had so many great food items! The Buffalo Califlower was amazing, and I typically don't eat Califlower. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽“

“My neighbor came by a few days ago and let me try the rotisserie chicken and French fries, it was really good. This convinced me to go in and check out the lomo saltado and I am very happy with my order. Lomo was something I ate a lot of in my younger days… It’s great to know I can place an order and walk right back to my house and enjoy it. The atmosphere in the restaurant is great, the service was amazing, and I felt pretty relaxed in there while I waited for my to go order. I’ll definitely be back for more food!“

“Can I please give it 6 stars? I recently went there with a group of five family members while visiting New Jersey and we had a truly extraordinary night! As an investor in restaurants I'm very critical when visiting any restaurant and not often impressed even with well known critically acclaimed restaurants. It's very rare when a place has truly incredible food with every appetizer and entree as well as first class VIP vibes for service. You could literally taste the passion and care put into every plate with beautifully prepared flavorful abundant meals. In fact, it was the first time in almost a decade I brought home leftovers as the meal was delicious and easily sufficient for two people. Our entire table raved about their meals and the attentive but not obtrusive service was always there to refill our wine and assist without any of us having to look up for service. The food alone would have made for a great night but what truly made it memorable besides the great waitstaff was the manager, Eli. When was the last time a manager, GM or owner greated you at your table to share a polite, interesting and passionate conversation about the food and why they love sharing this experience with their valued customers? He made our entire table feel like VIPs and made perfect recommendations for wine and dessert. It felt more like we were in someone's home as we were there for close to 3-1/2 hours talking, eating, drinking and laughing. The ambiance is warm and unpretentious and the memories of a great experience will certainly bring us back again.“

“Yummy Spicy Shrimp Pasta. I love it every time I come here :)“

“Excellent service. What’s the owner name“

“I NEVER do reviews lol I don’t think average people ever do in my opinion which is why I never really trust reviews and wasn’t gonna eat here last night when my homie tried to convince me because they had decent reviews lol BUT LET ME TELL YOU! I’m so happy I took the chance with them, the food was fire affff! & the chef cooking it look like he know what he doing & when I asked for my shrimp well done it came out cooked perfect not too raw & not overcooked. Rice was fire steak cooked perfect & chicken was amazing too . On top of that the food prices are unbeatable. If this spot ever got a huge marketing sponsor , they would put Benihana & all other Asian restaurants out of business. I like eating at el puerto in Harlem New York a lot but after coming here I might start coming here instead of driving all the way to NY and save the puertos for when I’m in the city lol
This restaurant is @vonchop_ certified!!“

“Went for dinner on Friday with my boys. Stephanie was amazing. her recommendations for entrees was perfect. The timing and meals were great. Was a nice evening.“

“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.“

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

“I love this place. The food is superb. Clean environment.“

“Lunch service was nice. However my brother ordered a Paella and there was hardly any rice in it. Given the fact the waiter insisted it would feed 3 I'm glad he ordered his solo cause it was barely enough for him. I ordered a chicken breast and chorizo lunch special. It was good. Aside from the spicy flavors it was great. The service was fantastic. It's no wonder they've been around for a long time. My brother recommended this place since he's been coming here a long time. I'm definitely opened to give it another try.“

“Vanessa is such a pleasant bartender and always polite and attentive. Tonight I had the Bang Bang Shrimp which always is amazing and then had the Baja scallops with shrimp scampi grilled in a garlic sauce over linguine. Very flavourful.“

“We ordered delivery to Union. Our order arrived about 30 min early and was fresh, hot and delicious!! I highly recommend this location and will become a regular customer.“

“Seafood Birthday Bash!

Went to this restaurant for my uncles birthday. He doesn’t eat chicken or steak so seafood is his favorite. Caldwell Seafood Market & Cafe was an obvious choice because of the pictures and the fact it was a fresh seafood market just stood out to me. It did not disappoint either! We were a group of 10 people and ordered everything our heart desired and spent $579. We ordered 3 orders of fried calamari which was nice and crispy and they even had a ginger sauce which is different. We tried the hot and spicy shrimp which had a great sauce to dip the complementary bread in. We ordered 5 bowls of New England clam chowder. I felt it was watery and not as seasoned as I am used to but we enjoyed it anyway. They forgot a bowl of soup but we won’t hold it against them. We all ordered entrees and most of us got a dessert! We left full and satisfied!

Knowing my family we love to eat and we are all reviewers at heart and are not afraid to say what we do not like. Everyone loved their food from the appetizers to the dessert and we were surprised at how fast the food came and how fresh it was. The waiter was very attentive as well. We didn’t need a reservation when we came in at 3pm and were the only ones there. Surprising it was not packed for a Saturday afternoon but started to fill up as we left.

Overall this restaurant gets a 5/5 because the experience was great, the waiter was very nice and accommodating, the food was piping hot and everyone was pleased even the kids who aren’t really seafood fans.

P.S. Below are photos of some entrees we ordered like the Red Snapper with spinach and beans, Bronzino with mash and veggies, Fish and Chips, Linguine with white clam sauce.“

“I've been buying fresh fish, as well as cooked fish for some years now, & have been TOTALLY satisfied. Dan is ALWAYS beyond pleasant, & meets your special requests !! ❤“

“ALWAYS delicious - I try to stop here whenever I am in the Cranford area. I’ve been a fan of this Jersey Shore style seafood joint for a couple decades. Fresh, perfectly prepared dishes that always allow the seafood to shine. Fried or broiled flounder and any kind of shrimp are a personal favorite. I always judge a restaurant by it’s side salad and here it’s never an afterthought, fresh and so tasty - they should bottle their house dressing it’s off the chart.“

“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“

“Drove from Orange County,New York. FRESH fish and seafood at very reasonable prices. Will even cook you a fish fry. Bought mussels, clams, live crabs, calamari, and salmon. Only issue was the salmon was not deboned at all, but I'm still rating 5 stars!“

“You won't be disappointed! Quick service and good food. I like the way the guy uses his memory taking orders, gets it right 99% of the time, even with 3 or more people ordering!“

“I drive all the way from the Pocono mountains in Pennsylvania just to get some good fish from Miss Kim. It's always worth it! Miss Kim's fish is consistently delicious, always seasoned to perfection and cooked just right, whether I want it hard or soft. Whether it's Whiting or porkies. It never disappoints!“
