11 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hamburg

“My wife and I had one of the best dining experiences ever last night. We’ve been to Lucia’s previously and if you’re not aware, it’s best to make reservations well in advance when you want to go. Anticipating our 32nd wedding anniversary, we tried to make reservations weeks in advance but nothing was available on Open Table however the stars aligned yesterday afternoon! Thankfully, we selected the notify me option and a spot opened last night!! When we checked in, we were warmly greeted by Jill with Happy Anniversary”! We arrived early to enjoy a cocktail at the outside bar. My wife had a lemon martini followed by a French 75. I had an Eagle Rare Old Fashioned. All perfectly crafted by highly attentive bar tenders. When we went to our table, not only did the person who seated us but the busser & server all acknowledged it was our anniversary! For dinner, we had crab risotto and lobster ravioli, both topped with an 8 oz perfectly grilled filet. An abundance of crab and lobster meat on both dishes. Thomas, our server, was extremely articulate, highly knowledgeable of each dish, their preparation and made excellent suggestions. He made the evening a delight! Lastly, we had creme brûlée for dessert! I can’t say enough, Lucia’s is a first class dining experience, top to bottom!! Kudos to the entire staff!!“

“From the moment we walked in we knew this was going to be the place to be. From the beautiful bar and the super friendly and funny host, to our server Nicole B. and the perfect menu options- everything was amazing. Definitely recommend the Bone In Ribeye with ALL the extras! So worth the price! Cooks and kitchen staff absolutely know what they are good at and we loved it!“

“Hoak's has been around for a long time, and it shows, but that is part of the charm. Lovely view of the lake, big comfy booths, excellent service. The chowder, fish and chips, and hamburgers are perfect. Very generous portions. It's a must visit everyone were in the area.“

“Like a light at the end of a dark tunnel, Rodney’s came to the rescue! We initially went for lunch at a very new, trendy new spot on Lakeshore Road. After a 20 minute wait, we were seated. The place was so loud! No band. No loud music. Just loud everything else. People talking, dishes clanking and who knows what else, it was so loud. There’s no way you could carry on a conversation without shouting. So we left right away. Next we tried a popular seafood restaurant nearby and were treated like second-class citizens just by inquiring how long the wait was. Out of there. Rodney’s was almost across the street so we went there. Best idea ever! Our hostess was friendly. Our server was a hoot. Funny, helpful and got everything exactly right. The food was excellent too. A cozy, clean spot right by the lake. I recommend Rodney’s highly.“

“Had to ask for our 1/2 sub and 1 slice of pizza after 25 minutes. Got order 5 minutes after that. We got there at 9:17pm - closes at 10pm. So we were still there after closing. 🤪
Returned today - because the food is good- the service was, thankfully, much better.“

“Perch dinner was cooked to perfection. Large perch were delicious and it took me 2 days to eat 2 of the perch. I definitely will order them again!“

“Lunch twice a week and never had a bad dish. Best damn steak sandwich is a must!!! Oh, by the way Kim is the best...hands down.“

“Visited for the first time with my mom on 1/31/26. Friendly, hard working host sat us within 10 minutes. We ordered a drink at the bar and chatted with the bartender, he was fluent in the menu and preparations. Our server was equally informative, she was very busy, only wished we had a bit more attention but, it was a busy Saturday. We ordered the Meatloaf Tower and the Shrimp and Scallop dinners. Both were very good, served with warm bread, salad and side. Meatloaf was a bit dense but good, Shrimp and Scallops were cooked to perfection in a garlicky butter and the vegetables with that dish were outstanding.“

“We ordered through GrubHub last night. Incredibly good food and the portion sizes are unreal. We did the BOGO deal with Fettuccini Tenderloin. Side salad, garlic bread, etc. We had a problem with the system, so I called for clarification. Whoever the gentleman was the answered last night (3/6/26 around 5:45pm) was awesome to deal with and very friendly. We’ll definitely order from here again and hopefully dine in soon, too. 🍝“
