50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Wantagh

“Fresh food, great service“

“Lobsters roll are the best ever I had it“

“great steaks & service. live music select nights“

“This place is a hidden gem. I don’t know if all their restaurants are as good as the one in Wantagh but probably so. Food is amazing and drinks are beyond good. This place does it right when so many restaurants are cutting corners. Try the burrito mojado. Their restaurant In port Washington closed which is a shame. Highly suggest margaritas!!“

“First, the naan bread that they serve on the table is outstanding. The service overall was excellent. We enjoyed the sampler appetizer. There were plenty of shrimp on the platter. The other items were a good portion. Filet mignon was perfectly cooked. Black angus bolognese pappardelle was good. Pasta is made in-house. BBQ ribs were meaty and had plenty of sauce. Overall, we really enjoyed the meal.“

“Nice service as well as great food!“

“Yesterday was the first time I have been to Popei’s. What a great night! From the moment we walked in the owner/chef greeted us. We sat outside in the tent with the great musician. He was very interactive, took requests. People were singing along, It’s was very enjoyable. It was very clear our waitress, Janice was extremely busy but also very thorough careful and caring. It’s obvious she cares about what she is doing and works very hard. Upon my ordering, I mentioned a food allergy Janice double checked that things were OK before she submitted the order. 2 other people came to verify before cooking my meal. The food was SO GOOD! Big portion sizes. Gave my mother dessert to celebrate her birthday. Overall, it was an absolutely fantastic night. We will be back. My only suggestion would be when the musician is taking a break to lower the background music. When he wasn’t singing, the music was still incredibly loud and we had difficulty hearing each other at the table.“

“This is a great place! Food is fantastic, really all we had was flavorful and had heat but not so much that it was over powering. People are so friendly. Drinks are made with real fruit. Prices are very reasonable. Best for take out bc only one table. Definitely try this place, a true gem.“

“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…“

“Very nice place to east Fast service And very pleasant waitress“

“I always enjoy ordering from this place! The food is made quickly and always arrives hot and fresh. What I appreciate most is the consistency! Every time I order, the quality and flavor are just as good as the last. It’s become my go-to spot when my daughter and I want fish and chip. Highly recommend!“

“Enormous portions, the bread and salad are excellent starts to a delicious meal. paella valenciana and lamb chops are amazing. Even my super picky, never impressed 75 year old father was in love with this restaurant.“

“Davenport never disappoints. An incredible menu with something for all tastes, food always prepared as requested, and the best service in the area. Friendly, knowledgeable and skillful staff start with a warm welcome on arrival and continue to meet every need until an equally warm farewell. Excellent.“

“Great customer service n food was delish“

“Great food Great service“

“My brother moved by this spot like a month ago and I know this place OH SO WELL. ? I’m in Freeport and I haven’t found empanadas as good as Mamma Gina’s. When I tell you the food just hits every time, they’re honestly so consistently great.

Parking: It’s a small lot, so just take it slow turning into it.“

“been going here my whole life. the best there is!“

“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!“

“We went for the second time, the first time was so much better!! This time it was not good. My wife had the fish tacos. Not only did they not look nice but the taste was bad. I had the crunchy mahi mahi. It looked like raw tuna. It was not good as well. The only thing we liked was the desserts. We will not go back any time soon.“

“We order 4 dozen chopped baked calms for only 9 of us and barely had leftovers! Everything is always fresh and delicious! I have never had a better lobster bisque ! B&B is the best!“

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

“Just had a lovely, romantic anniversary dinner at Branzinos 110 tonight. The food was awesome as well as the staff. The atmosphere was great too!! Chad our waiter was very attentive!! Will definitely be back!!“

“My husband surprised me with brunch at this establishment for a pre-birthday celebration. This was my very first time here. Firstly, our waiter Christan was AMAZING! He was pleasant, professional, and had a great sense of humor. Right off the back I was pleased. The environment gave me classy, but a chilled vibe. I had the shrimp with grits with creole sauce. It was very delicious. I was not a fan of the creole sauce but only because that's not my thing. I just wanted to try it. The shrimp and potatoes that came with it were amazing! With a glass of mimosa (my first mimosa). My daughter enjoyed her food and so did my husband. Over all, the experience we had was a 10. And, trust, I can be picky, so this says a lot coming from me. Very clean environment, including the bathrooms. It was a really nice experience. Perfect for the occasion. Thank you husband.“

“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've been a local in long Beach for 15+ years. This spot is conveniently nestled all the way in the east end of long beach. After hurricane Sandy, this spot has changed over time and has accommodated new furniture, palm trees, games, and much more. While I was taking my dog Rio out for a walk, I thought I'd stop by and try their lobster roll. During the wait, the staff offered some water for my dog and was fast/prompt. They offered extremely courteous service and the lobster roll was the best bang for its buck. It's a small spot to grab something quick to eat, but what I strongly admire, is how it the only operating business on the corner of pacific and shore road that dishes out some quick eats. Definitely stop by to support their small business, you won't regret it.“

“I enjoyed having there Cheeseburger.“

“I have no words for how amazing this staff was for our party today. Every step of the way they were there and did everything to make our day perfection. Abigail went above and beyond and she was so easy to work with. The food and service was amazing. Find a reason to go to this restaurant. Thank you for making our day so special.“

“My new fav spot! I will be going again this week for my birthday 🎂“

“Highly Recommended, Highly Satisfied, A Great Hospitality, Perfect Family Restaurant, and overall it’s the best homemade home fried rice and Cajun fries and Seafood are top notch best quality food services where the Owner (chef himself), his Newphew are such a friendly company. I enjoy the business and when whenever I’m around my old neighborhood in Town of Freeport (PORTKNOX NATIVE) I come here to enjoy with my family and my small parrot 🦜 - happy folks and nice environment staff..“

“Food is amazing 5/5 every time. Everything is made fresh and they get a lot of business which means you’re going to be waiting sometime. But, they do take online and phone orders. They are very welcoming and very nice. They will let you sample different menu options and not spoonful samples but real samples. They are very nice and I’m so proud of their success. My go to is the whiting, which is the real whiting not the frozen bagged one. Also, the new clam strips and new fries are amazing!!! And the fried okra, chefs kiss. Really great restaurant, you can’t go wrong.“

“One of my favorite local little hole in the wall spots. Often come here to get a quick bite like the Whiting Fish Sandwich. There a plenty of seafood options and plenty of options to make at home or take with you. Area is a little shaky but hey… that's Hempstead.“

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

Red Crab owes me nothing…LOL🤣🎉🥳💕🥰👍🏽😃 (One small suggestion…the music can be turned down slightly. It was a little difficult to talk across the table…)“

“best food!!! come here often!“

“We ended up here because there was a two hour wait next door at Buoy Bar. It is great atmosphere- lively on the water. It is interesting service, you order and they bring the food to your table. You have to wait for table to open, but it didn’t take long(five minutes). Overall we enjoyed the experience and felt like we were away.“

“It was a special after-the-beach day birthday dinner at Artie’s and it was fantastic! Everything was fresh and delicious.“

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

“A great night out at Chadwick’s. Ali was great! 😊“

“Food was good here. Authentic dim sum stuff. However, there isn't a lot of variety to choose from, like how it normally is in most dim sum restaurants. Service was very good. Friendly staff. I'd come back because it's around the way, but I'd have to drive a little further to get a wider variety.“
