50 Best Seafood Restaurants near New Hyde Park

“Went to Rincon Criollo for my son's birthday. I've been there before for a large birthday party. Please take into account the large party was about 40 people and the service was very good. I enjoyed this time more because it was only a table of 5 and the service was even better. The croquettes were excellent and the Vaca Frita with maduros was also excellent. Oh, I forgot...the Mojito was sooooo good. Muddled lime and mint for sure. And of course, we embarrassed our adult son with a very festive birthday celebration with the staff...bingo and thank you! Overall, a great meal and good time was had by all. Highly recommended. Muchas gracias!!“

“THIS is the place to cater your next affair ! Don’t hesitate, book it now ! My wife and I recently experienced the joy of hosting my son and daughter-in-law’s wedding rehearsal dinner for seventy family members and out-of-town friends. We have been regular customers at Umberto’s Pizzeria for years, next door to the restaurant, getting our weekly Sunday or Monday night pizza pie. Nevertheless, we had never previously ventured into their restaurant next door. What a pleasant surprise ! What a smart decision to book the party here at the renowned Umberto’s of New Hyde Park. The second floor of the restaurant opens up into a spacious, light-filled, warm and welcoming room, big enough to feel like a proper celebration event space. There was plenty of room for our family and friends to mingle and even plenty of space for the several toddlers in attendance to sit and play, and run around. They enjoyed the party as much as anyone ! The catering menu provided a wide variety of choices from appetizers, salads, pastas and main courses from which our son and daughter-in-law selected from to satisfy the preferences of all of our guests. The food was delicious, as we’ve come to expect. Also, thank goodness each table received a Grandma’s Pizza. An affair at Umberto’s isn’t complete without a taste of the Grandma Pizza. The wait staff couldn’t have been any more attentive and solicitous. They were sensational. It’s obvious what a well managed team this is, kudos to Katy and Gaetano. Thank you Umberto’s for making this a most memorable affair. One minor note - The menu, to our surprise, doesn’t include dessert. What’s an Italian meal without a tiramasu, cannoli, or napoleon ? Thus, we brought our own which was fine but less satisfying than an Italian pastry to top off the night. - Bruce & Melanie Miller“

“The place is a vibe. The atmosphere and esthetics is everything. It has a great vintage, cozy, bookstore mature feels with these bold eclectic open frames. Food is good. Well presented but lacks flavor. Where the food lacks in the drinks make up in style. Service is attentive but not amazing. Overall. Great time. Great vibes. Would recommend and go again for the feel, not the food.“

“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 customer service n food was delish“

“The portions for the appetizers were so igwe couldn’t even order entrees. The food is well seasoned and delicious. The service was attentive. The ambiance is PARTY. You just keep moving as you done. I definitely will be back…“

“First of all just want to say the lobster bisque and New England clam chowder are both amazing. My family and I have tried pretty much everything here and never disappointed.
They make there own juices and desserts. So it’s fresh just like the food. Everything cooked when ordered.
It’s small but the food, cleanliness and great service is what matters to me family.“

“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!“

“Stopped here on a Sunday night as they were about to close they were pretty much out of everything. Kerry Ann was kind enough to make us some fresh fried fish and chicken topped it off with some extras. Super amazing customer service. Their coconut drops and peanut cake reminded me so much of back home, jamaica. Overall I had a great experience and will definitely stop by if I'm ever in the area.“

“Absolutely love this restaurant. The quality of the food, service, and atmosphere are all outstanding. Incredible Mediterranean fare with excellent steak selection as well. Top 5 grilled octopus that I have ever had. Big shout out to Fotini who we see every time we are there. She is always so pleasent and provides incredible service. Highly recommend! 👍🏻“

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

“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!!!“

“UN EXCELENTE SERVICIO 👏🏻👏🏻 MUY EFICIENTES!!!“

“My friend and I - both longtime lovers of Asian cuisine - were originally headed to another spot for lunch, but it was closed for a break until 5 PM. Hungry Monster was nearby, so we decided to give it a try - and we’re so glad we did!
Though the restaurant is small, it’s incredibly cozy and comfortable, with a mix of four-person tables and bar-style seating with stools. When we arrived, there were only a couple of teenagers sipping smoothies, so we practically had the place to ourselves. That meant we got the full attention of our wonderful waiter, Biscuit, who was very attentive and made us feel well cared for from start to finish.
We both ordered their signature dish package - I chose the soup-based seafood package, and my friend ordered the beef version. Each dish came served in a small cauldron, full of different ingredients and rich flavor. The portions were generous, so I ended up taking half of mine home. As a nice touch, they packed my leftovers in a high-quality branded bag with the restaurant’s name, which I really appreciated.
We ended our meal with drinks - mine was a refreshing grapefruit and lemon green tea, and my friend had a Mango Tea Yakult, which was fruity, creamy, and perfectly balanced.
The ambiance added to the experience. The decor combines traditional Asian elements with anime-style art, even on the bathroom door! It was fun, vibrant, and gave the place a unique personality. Pleasant background music played throughout the meal - it was noticeable enough to enhance the atmosphere but soft enough not to interfere with conversation.
Some practical notes:
• They offer delivery, and you can get a 10% discount on takeout if you pay in cash.
• They’re open every day.
• The only downside is parking - limited spots in front of the restaurant and no obvious public parking nearby. You can risk parking in the nearby plaza, but there are tow warnings posted. Thankfully, we didn’t have any trouble.
All in all, we had a wonderful lunch at Hungry Monster. The food was fantastic, the service was top-notch, and the whole experience felt welcoming and personal. We’ve been to many Asian restaurants before, and this one stood out in the best way.
If you enjoy Asian cuisine, we highly recommend Hungry Monster. We’ll definitely be coming back! 5/5 stars“

“Such a beautiful hidden gem in the neighborhood; everything about his place is just lovely. I will definitely keep coming back. The service was immaculate, and the food was delicious. And the place has such a beautiful & romantic vibe, at least during the cold holiday months. I will definitely keep coming back for more.“

“Great food!! beautiful place“

“Great ambiance, food was good and service was excellently. Hosts were personable. Will definitely recommend.“

“Outstanding Seafood and Exceptional Atmosphere!
I recently dined at Peter Clam Bar, and it was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm smile and the inviting aroma of fresh seafood. The atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant — the kind of place where you can enjoy a great meal with friends or have a quiet dinner by the water.
Every dish was a standout. The clam chowder was rich and flavorful, packed with fresh clams and perfectly balanced seasoning. The grilled lobster tail was tender and buttery, cooked to perfection. I also tried the seafood platter, and every bite — from the shrimp to the scallops — tasted incredibly fresh and expertly prepared.
The service was top-notch, with the staff being friendly, attentive, and clearly passionate about what they do. It’s rare to find a restaurant that gets everything right — food, service, and atmosphere — but Peter Clam Bar truly delivers on all fronts.
If you love seafood, this place is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be coming back again soon!“

“Dagim is fabulous! The menu is vast and has options to suit everyone, and the service is exceptional. The atmosphere in the restaurant is lovely for either parties or cozy family dinners. Suitable for people of all ages, I’d recommend Dagim to anyone looking for great food and good company. The cuisine, service, and treatment from the owners never disappoints!“

“Was driving back from New Jersey a couple weeks ago and there had been some accidents and a ton of traffic so we decided to take a unplanned detour and stopped in Great Neck. Happily we found a Great Mediterranean Seafood Restaurant/Bar AND saved on drive time! 😜 The server greeted us with a basket of Warm Grilled Pita & Humus, on the house. Pictured we have the Grilled Anchovy & Chilled Roasted Beet Salad with Scallion & Raddish, Tuna Tar Tar with Guacamole, Seaweed Salad & Raddish Apps The Fish 🐟🐡🐙🦀🦞🦐🦑🐚 was Super Fresh & Plentiful and Plenty to choose from! I even saw the Host presenting a table 2 Whole Fish to inspect, compare and choose from 👌👌👏👏 FRESH! An Incredibly lite white airy Chilean #Seabass and Broccoli with garlic, olive oil, sundried tomatoes and chickpeas, was, for me, perhaps the star of the whole show. Grilled Olive Oil #GROUPER with Roman Green Beans 👌 Lastly a Kid's Steak Tidbits order with Fried & Broccoli.. Pearl was Impressed! Skirt Steak.. whole basket was only like $12 $7 #margaritas 👍👍#fullbar #liny #longislandfoodie #freshfish #mangiawithmaggi #Greekfood #mediterraneandiet #lowsalt #nosalt #healthyfood #goodeats #tellthemmaggisentyou“

“Great food and services.I really enjoyed this place“

“Got my lobster roll before they close for the season. No problem about The hot sun the afternoon was extremely blustery. I’ve always loved this place even though it is pricey for a clam shack.“

“The service is great. Everyone is very nice and the food was delicious. Will be returning again. Thank you so much.“

“My favorite spot on the mile. Great food, service and ambiance!“

“I came here for fresh seafood and ended up purchasing several prepared food items, since those are easy and looked well made. I tried both seafood and vegetable dishes. All were fresh and tasted delicious. I care about fresh seafood. Prices are not cheap, but with seafood, quality really matters. There also appears to be a sushi restaurant onsite, which I'll have to try next time I'm in town. Roslyn is fortunate to have several local gourmet markets and this counts.“

“I like the Cozy environment and foods are really good! If you like spicy food,it is your best choice😋“

“Great seafood in a fantastic location.“

“Excellent eatery on Atlantic Avenue. The owner is super friendly and very courteous. We are offered a free amuse-bouche starter of whipped ricotta on pita and it was fabulous. We got a few dishes of just tapas and a delicious salad. Will absolutely be my new go to restaurant. There was even live music that was another fabulous touch.“

“This is a really nice spot woth great food, im a big fan of their salads!! And they have a great vibe for parties. Date nights. Even girls time! Specials are always going on and you can check our video out on Instagram & Tiktok @jadaexploresall. Definitely give them a try, order thr lamb chops and their Lychee Martini! Cannot miss this gem in Freeport, NY“

“Amazing food great customer service from Jason very interactive kind this location definitely has amazing food the bartenders are so nice and it’s just a wonderful place to be whenever I think of seafood I think of here !!! Not Red Lobs… not Hook and R….. but HERE“

“The food was great and we had very attentive and friendly service. We went on a Friday in February. inside was very noisy and crowded. (To be expected on a Friday night) so we ate outside. It was fantastic , not nearly as noisy and a very nice atmosphere.“

“We had a fiftieth birthday party here for two twin brothers. The patio out back is beautiful. The food was great and the waitstaff is wonderful. This is practically its own institution in Floral Park.“

“Shows let out late, and finding a place that's still serving quality food after 10 PM is a challenge. This place not only stays open, but the kitchen is clearly still operating at full capacity. We rolled in after curtain call, still buzzing from the performance, and they seated us warmly despite the late hour. The food was just as good as it would be at prime time—fresh, hot, thoughtfully prepared. They even recommended a nightcap that extended the evening beautifully. For theatergoers and night owls, this is your spot. Curtain up, then dinner here.“

“Prices were reasonable! Food was served quick and was delicious! Valet parking. Staff was pleasant.“

“Great dining experience. Superb cuisine!!“

“Awsome food❤️❤️❤️ Reasonable Price Spacious Parking“

“Sehr gute Küche, freundliche Bedienung und angenehme Atmosphäre“

“After a long wait we went back to Sammy’s fish box. What an amazing meal. The portions were huge and it included all sides. Everything was cooked and served to perfection. The waitress was friendly and attentive. Only bad thing was that we were too stuffed for dessert“
