50 Best Seafood Restaurants near College Point

“The food is super fresh here! Got the geoduck, lobster, spotted snails, and oysters. They clean and cook the food to whatever method you want. The waiters and waitresses are also super caring and makes me feel seen as a customer as they swap out plates, add tea, and portion soups for everyone at the table. Good value, great taste, and solid service. Would come here again.“

“Nice place my daughter finally convinced me to dine at will return didn’t disappoint“

“Great service, write a review and they answer right away and take care away. Love it. ❤“

“Excellent service great ambiance and excellent food!“

“Food was delicious! Had the Bronzino which came with the sayadeya rice. The fish was so delicious, perfectly seasoned. The unexpected star of the show was the grilled octopus which was so soft and juicy… not chewy at all and lots of flavor. Maybe the best i’ve had. Friendly Egyptians. The service and atmosphere fits the vibe, very casual spot. Food was served quickly. Will be back!“

“exelente comida y ambiente, muy recomendado.“

“Great experience everything was perfect 😍“

“157 Tavern has been a staple in the area for 10 years and is an excellent choice for parties or group gatherings. You can simply provide them with your budget, and they will curate the menu for you, which makes the planning process very convenient.

Regarding the food:

Grilled Spanish Octopus: Highly recommended. The potato pave is delicious, and the octopus is tender with a perfect charred exterior.

Short Rib with Bone Marrow: The meat is very tender and falls apart at the touch of a fork, though I wish the portion of bone marrow was a bit larger.

King Salmon: Quite tender.

Burrata Cheese: Standard/average.

Caramel Flan: Delicious and beautifully presented.

Overall, it is a great spot for a nice dinner.“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“Atmosphere, amazing! Food, top! Jeffrey, BRAVISSIMO!“

“Kann ich nur empfehlen, in Service, Preis und Geschmack nahezu unschlagbar! Seiten so gut in NYC gegessen, sei es Seafood oder auch Anderes. Bei uns waren es: Appetizer: Spanish Octopus Entrée: Bone-In NY Strip Dessert: NY Cheesecake P.s.: Es gibt auch vegetarische Gerichte.“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“Loved the tasting menu experience! Such an active kitchen and everything tasted amazing. I also ordered the lobster pot pie from the a la carte menu and the kitchen was able to fit it in before dessert. Great dinner! The flavor profiles were really blended. Loved small aspects like the coconut snow and the ginger granita.“

“Last night We came to eat at Mission Ceviche for the first time and we left very happy for the incredible quality of food and service. 100% recommended with a tremendous desire to return soon. Good service and everyone very friendly I had a very wonderful birthday.“

“Loved this place, coming back to NYC just for this restaurant!“

“My Husband & I Love This Spot So Much. We Come As Often As We Can Which Is A Lot. The Staff Are Very Friendly And Never Had A Bad Experience. I Will Continue To Come, Sit, Eat & Drink.“

“Great food and drinks! A big pricey, but worth it!“

“What a beautiful restaurant! The interior is stylish, elegant, and has a lovely upscale atmosphere.
Looking back, it’s such a shame that we had a late lunch earlier that day, because I wasn’t very hungry and only ordered a salad and the Peruvian rice with prawns, which is actually listed as a side dish.
But wow… what a surprise! My salad was absolutely delicious — without a doubt the best salad I’ve had in New York. You could taste every individual vegetable; everything was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. And the Peruvian rice with prawns was simply amazing. I enjoyed every single bite.
Paired with a nice glass of Chardonnay, it was the perfect meal.
The service was warm and friendly, and the whole experience was wonderful. Next time we’re in New York, we’ll definitely be back for a proper dinner. I can’t wait to try more of the menu!“

“The food is incredible! Casual but impeccable sums up the menu, atmosphere, and experience. Moina served us and is exceptionally pleasant and knowledgeable. This is a must when in Fort Greene!! Don’t skip the oysters, the broccoli salad, or the shrimp loaf!“

“I had a wonderful time, the food was delicious, strong drinks. Plenty of food, beautiful restaurant. Definitely worth it. Plus we got a little loud and they were fine with it. Didn’t feel threatened lol“

“cool vibe natural wine bar. love a good natural wine bar. amazing wine all round. we got 4 glasses and they did not disappoint. their specials were fab and the entire tasting menu looks fab. would love to go back for more food. great service. happy 4 years!“

“I went to celebrate my sister's birthday. Everything was exceptional! From the time we walked in until the time we left. My only concern was that we did not take pictures of the food, but you will have a great experience.“

“Friend who tried Cap’t Loui in Cape Cod highly recommended it when she saw it open in Sunnyside, Queens. Prices are good, so you don’t have to wait to treat yourself only on special occasions. The Capt’n Loui sauce boil was really good and 1 pound per person was very filling. The garlic noodles as a side was delicious, and we tried it dipped in the boil’s sauce, too. Service was spectacular. Minh Kha gave us his favorites as suggestions and cleaned up after us well. All of my favorite pop tunes were playing as well. Thoroughly enjoyed and will be back.“

“They just revamped their menu and I’m all here for it! My favorites were the rice noodle rolls wrapped with tofu, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, carrots and preserved radish, Thai beef stew and the Panang short ribs. The beef stew was SO tender and collagen rich, literally every bite was melt in your mouth. Short ribs, also as expected, tender and flavorful. The Thai ice cream was a perfect finish - sweet toppings, cold coconut ice cream, warm pandan sticky rice - all different flavors and textures but all work together in harmony.“

“Rebecca's is one of the best servers I've ever seen.“

“Amazing food and service!“

“what the fish is definitely a place you wanna come to if you’re looking for good food, great vibes, bumping music, and club energy. the team is incredibly hardworking and welcoming. this is the second time we’re celebrating my dads birthday here and he loves it. 15/10 recommend!“

“May was amazing to us! She made sure we were well taken care of and made sure we were having a great time. 10/10 place! Will gladly return soon!“

“Just the best. Happy hour oysters and cava, amazing service, really interesting seafood with incredible flavours - shout out to the deep fried scallops (didn’t know they would be deep fried but they were amazing) and the bone broth with the tuna steak was top. It was super busy, but we got a table with no reservation, such a vibe on a sunny afternoon.“

“This is a magical spot. I’ve had dinner here twice, most recently for their Sunday Supper. The food was excellent across the board — in addition to the three courses included with the meal, we had the pearled barley with burrata and the bone marrow with mashed potatoes. The three of us couldn’t agree on what we loved the most. My personal favorites were the bone marrow and the chicken soup with cilantro and lime (would pay $$$$$ for that soup the next time I’m sick).

Don’t sleep on Ilis for a light dinner and drinks. Even if you’re not doing the full tasting menu, this place offers so much for you to try that you likely won't find anywhere else. As someone who has sat at the bar many times, I’d say that the cocktails are on par with bars like Maison Premiere and Please Don't Tell (all the drinks are excellent but don’t miss the Carajillo!). And the a la carte menu offers dishes that are consistently delicious and interesting. It’s a BEAUTIFUL restaurant that’s been meticulously crafted, and everyone who works here is really knowledgeable and friendly.“

“The food and drinks are AMAZING! I fell in love with this place! I can’t wait to go back. (I had the best cocktail drink I have ever had in my life!) Thank you so much Artemio for your great service!“

“OMG Five ✨ I loved the options, the prices, the camaraderie of the staff! Food was sooo well priced, you pick your portion size and how it’s cooked!! Get the Greek salad but plan to share with a few friends. I’ll be back!!“

“Went out with friends to eat Friday night September 2-22 The food was great the manager was lovely I believe her name was Amy she is a awesome host Will be back soon“

“Docks is an institution! I am so glad it is still around and going strong. 40 years ago I used to hang out there after work to unwind and socialize with my colleagues. We were young and loved the energy the place exuded. Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting up with a new colleague for happy hour and it did not disappoint. The bar is exactly how I remembered it and the happy hour prices plus the quality of the food made me well---happy! I shall return but much sooner next time :-)“

“The best around service is grestaff is friendly. Food is out of this world. Highly recommended“

“Get ready to clutch your pearls: I've not yet been to Abuqir.

Gasp! Shock! Horror! Won't someone please think of the CHILDREN???

In my defense, doesn't this mean my review of Le Petit Pecheur (which always makes me think of George Bizet's underrated opera, for all you Romantic Era nerds) wil be...purer? No annoying comparisons and such?

I digress. We came, we seafood-ed, we smiled.

- Fried Sardines: My favorite dish of the night. Perfectly breaded, lightly crispy, totally filling, yet not briney or heavy. I think I'm in love....

- Baba Ganoush + Hummus + Pita: I forget why we ordered these, but they were tasty and creamy and made a nice distraction while we waited for our entrees.

- Grilled Octopus: Perfectly chewy and zesty, exactly the kind of poulpe you might enjoy on the beachy coast of the southern Mediterranean.

- Scallops: Also well cooked, and tastier than they had any right to be considering the simple seasoning.

- Shrimp Linguine in butter garlic sauce: I mean, you really can't go wrong with a dish like this. My only regret was having to share it with five other friends.

- Branzino: Butterflied, tender and full of flavor. There are many branzino dishes out there. This one won't break the bank, and will leave both your stomach and your wallet happy.

If you need more, definitely pad your meal with Mashed Potatoes and Fries because carbs are happy things, and happy things deserve to be eaten.

Space is ample, as are the portions, and service is quick and friendly. They play a lovely mix of North African French and Arabic music, which just adds to the beachy resort town atmosphere, IMO. Perhaps one day I'll finally make it to Abuqir, and the cycle will be complete.“

“We absolutely loved this restaurant! The food was fresh, incredibly delicious, and beautifully presented. The service was outstanding — very friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The atmosphere was cozy, stylish, and made us feel comfortable right away. You can truly tell that everything is done with passion and care. We will definitely come back and highly recommend this place!“

“Was the most refined fine dining experience I’ve had in Manhattan. I would highly recommend it! Phenomenal food … unique experience and fantastic atmosphere! The staff has the utmost attention to detail.“

“Love this new location. Staff very friendly. Only complaint would be that they discontinued the free little chocolate puddings at the end. One of the signature nice things I always loved about this place. It seems they want to push the paid dessert menu. Sign of the times I suppose. Nevertheless, great spot.“

“My wife and I were recently at your restaurant our server who told us he was new to his position (2weeks) gave us amazing cartious and attentive service like an experienced professional unfortunately I didn't get the young man's name..our visit was on Friday 2/25 at about 3:30 in the afternoon . I just wanted to give him his due compliments“

“Walked in on a Friday night and got lucky to snag a soot at a bar table. Great energy in the room and the staff including the general manager Heather were so gracious and attentive. Experience was 10 out of 10 from start to finish . Heather was really the highlight as she recommended an amazing mocktail overhearing me say I don’t drink . Thank you to the team at Krave . Really enjoyed it and can’t wait to come back ..“

“When in NYC, we always make time to stop in at this beautiful little bar/restaurant for amazing caviar and drinks. Today's experience was no different. The staff is always helpful and pleasant. The caviar is always fresh and well presented. The drinks are always delicious.
We would definitely recommend this establishment...we plan on returning ourselves.“

“Food is very fresh and excellent. Our server, Sandy was very friendly and attentive to our needs“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Service from Christina!

I had an amazing experience at Captain Loui thanks to Christina. From the moment we were seated, she was friendly, attentive, and professional. She made sure we had everything we needed, checked on us regularly, and provided excellent customer service throughout our meal.
Christina’s positive attitude and attention to detail truly stood out and made our dining experience even better. She was knowledgeable about the menu, patient with our questions, and went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.
Employees like Christina are the reason customers like myself will keep coming back. She is a tremendous asset to Captain Loui and absolutely deserves recognition for her hard work and dedication. I highly recommend asking for Christina if you visit—she was amazing and definitely deserves a raise!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you, Christina, for making our visit so enjoyable!“

“Amazingly romantic vibe…..fantastic food and ambience. Service was 5 stars.“

“I went to a family friend’s 70th birthday party they hosted in the Atlantic ballroom. The space was modern and very clean. The food was DELICIOUS!!! And the workers, Yiselle, Estrellita, and Shorty (blonde) made the event so memorable! They paid attention to every detail, whether it was filling our water cups, collecting unused plates and of course they did it all with a warm smile. They were kind, funny and very welcoming. I had a wonderful time! Thank you Yiselle, Estrellita and shorty!!!“

“Great food & awesome service !!!“

“I've been visiting Johnny's for over 30+years. Today I went for a lobster roll which replaced the shrimp roll. last year this lobster was so delicious 😋 couldn't wait till the summer. unfortunately, I was highly disappointed. it is not longer on a garlic bun and now served on a plain hot dog bun :( also flavorless! last yr price was $24 and now up to $28 with no flavor and blah bun. please bring back the recipe from years before. thanks“
