50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Cincinnati

“Grest food, Great hospitality… Fast service“

“I love the atmosphere, it’s elegant but with the door opening and closing that made it chili and that’s why I gave the 4 stars. The wait staff was excellent. Swift, patient, knowledgeable, all stepped in and helped, truly satisfied with the service! The food was exquisite!!! I had the baked chicken and baked potato and it was cooked and seasoned to perfection!!!! I only gave 4 stars because for me I feel the menu is limited with choices I like. The person I was with raved about the trout, couscous, and Brussels sprouts! This was a special night, special event, and j Alexander felt just as special!!!“

“This was our first time and the food was excellent. Our server was wonderful providing suggestions and recommendations.“

“The entrees at Atwood are outstanding. We had the black bass and the arctic char. The oysters, raw and roasted, were delicious as well, but the entrees made the meal for us. Our server, Anna, was knowledgeable, friendly and attentive. We will return, maybe not on Saturday night though, as the crowd and acoustics make it very loud for dinner. That was the only negative for an otherwise great evening.“

“Some of the best fish in town! Brandee was wonderful to talk to. We will be back!“

“We’re here from the South and the smell alone takes you back to southern cuisine! Great place!“

“My Goodness! The flavors are amazing!! The oxtails are tender and flavorful. The chicken is completely marinated and moist never dry. The steamed fish with peppers and onions is great with just the right amount of heat. If you want to go to Jamaican just order and be transported in you mind! JUST DELICIOUS!!! The only reason no 5 stars is there is always room for improvement. And I can't wait until theres a more upscale dining experience of Yummi Express!!“

“Kelly our server was phenomenal and created an experience to remember. The chefs made the herb crusted steak to perfection and left me craving more!! We will certainly be back.“

“Got the cheesecake and the amount of sauce that came with it hardly covered the bottom of the little ramikin. I wonder if they give the same tiny amount to the people actually dining in?“

“Best place in Cincy hands down“

“My friend and I eat here quite often. Going on 4 years now. Food is always delicious, nice portion sizes, and lots of flavor. Food comes out quick, not a lot of wait time. Staff is always really nice! We will continue to meet here for our food, and girl talk sessions.“

“I can get a great lunch for $5.99!“

“BEST SEAFOOD & SAUCE NICE DINING SPOT & ADULT DRINKS GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE QUICK ORDERS EVEN ON DOOR DASH. I WILL NOT EAT ANY OTHER SEAFOOD BOILS BUT THEIRS..I TREAT MYSELF AND OTHERS 3 X'S A MONTH.😋🦀🦐🌽🥔🍤🦞“

“The fried fish was so yummy and mouth watering, just an out of this world experience for me. We brought fried catfish and they were just excellent. I fell in love with the fried fish burger with tomatoes, onions. The only downside was that the fries were quite soft not the traditional crispy ones we would expect but I don't have that much to say against it. I plan to go there again since I just cannot help it....Thanks,Saikat“

“I found a delicious place for fish. It's carry-out only and so worth it. The pricing was reasonable and the quality and quantity of food is great. Ordered the tilapia. It was deliciously seasoned and cooked. I have enough for another meal. It was still steamy by the time I returned home. Employees were friendly, including the other waiting customer. Pleasant experience! Thanks for making lunch!“

“Bummer this place used to be so good went early to get in on Saturday ngt, when we left at 630 on Saturday night the place was dead. The oysters and clam chowder was the best, not worth going to anymore@“

“Impromptu lunch that turned out fabulous at this location! The waitress was very knowledgeable and friendly!“

“This has been our go-to spot for celebrating big milestones. Most recently, we celebrated our son's 21st birthday here, and he was genuinely impressed by the thoughtful attention from the staff—from the birthday card placed on our table to the special dessert they brought out. Every visit feels special, and it's always a wonderful experience.“

“We had New Years Eve dinner at Reeftop. It was amazing! The service was perfect and the food was incredible. We love this place and really appreciated the extra attention they placed on this special meal!“

“Great place to catch crabs“

“Come and enjoy nice people and great food“

“My wife and I spent our 37 wedding anniversary in the Cincinnati area. We wanted to find a nice place, but different than the usual for our anniversary dinner. My wife found Meritage Restaurant online and said it sounded like what we wanted. She called to make a reservation and from the conversation on the phone we were excited to eat here! After arriving to the area, which was a hidden gem in itself, we were greeted by a very friendly hostess! We ask to sit upstairs to enjoy the live music and those guys did not disappoint with their blues/jazz music! Our waitress, she is why there should be no tax on tips! She knew her stuff and was AWESOME! The food, from the stuffed mushrooms, to our dinner, to dessert did not disappoint! EVERYTHING was perfect and it made our anniversary a very special evening! I would drive the two hours from our house to eat here again! GREAT PLACE!!!!!“

“I’ve been craving a Seafood Boil…and this REALLY HIT!! Perfect spice level, perfect potatoes…as soon as the food hit the table…SILENCE! And no one was talking. SOOO GOOD!“

“This was not our first time to visit Seasons 52. However you can count on the great service, the ambiance and the food is outstanding each time we have visited. The fish dishes are delightful, the steaks are wonderful, even the flatbread is great. Enjoy!!“

“Went here for a date night and left so full and happy!! Our server, Jenny, took such good care of us. It was nice to have the menu and specials explained to us in details and got a lot of recommendations from her, too. We ordered the crab cakes, mussels, lamb rack, their steak and crab special for the night. Everything was cooked to perfection with right seasonings and temp. We really enjoyed the special-the filet mignon was soooo tender and the crab was sweet! It was cool to have a candle lit butter and Cajun spiced lemon on the side for the crab. We were so stuffed at the end but couldn’t help but get dessert to go. The crème brûlée NY cheesecake is SUCH a treat and I’m so glad we got it. Service was 10/10, would recommend everyone to go here for nicer dinners.“

“Outstanding in every way. Stopped in for a much-needed meal on the high route from Nashville to Philly.. could not have been more impressed with both food and service. One of the best meals I’ve had in a while.. everything was superb.“

“We had an amazing meal at Alara! The service was excellent and the food and beverages were delicious! The pain killer cocktail is a must try (TRUST!). The HOP cakes were delicious and refreshing (like a crab cake sans crab). I also really enjoyed the Iberian pork chops and the scallops. I will be thinking about those pork chops for a while... 😍“

“We went here because was close to the hospital. Used to go to olive garden. Never again. Carrabbas is top notch from top down!“

“Came to this place to make up for the horrible experience we had at another location.

It was like day and night,

The GM Ryan was very accomodating and kind. Our server JESSICA C (ms Jessi) was stupendous. Fun, professional, quick, and courteous. I appreciate the effort she put in tonight!

Now the food, amazing quality and good pricing. Absolute 10/10 across the board for this location!“

“I can get a great lunch for $5.99!“

“Perfect for Anniversary couldn’t have been a better evening“

“Amazing experience at Wildweed and what an addition to the Cincinnati restaurant scene. We did the chef's table with wine pairing and they knocked it out of the park. From the service, every single person acknowledged and welcomed us to the food (so creative, delicious and locally inspired), to all the small touches of high end glassware for wines, beautiful furniture. I don't know how every single person is not raving about this spot. Can't wait to go back, as it's been the best meal in the city. With fine dining spots in the city lost like Table, Nuvo, L, this one I hope stands the test of time for a new modern type of fine dining.“

“Love the food and the Staff!!!“

“I was starving and came in with some girlfriends, Was served by a tall, pretty brown, haired woman, I missed her name but she had an infectious laugh. The food was great, service was really good, will be back!“

“Great and friendly place to eat, fast service also. Definitely a great date night spot.“

“This place is incredible. Their queso and salsa is delicious and their chips are always warm. We got the chicken fajita and it was incredible-so much chicken! Also, their refried beans were amazing. I’ve never liked them at other places I’ve tried but this place? Their refried beans are delicious as well as their rice. Our waiter, Jose, knew we were trying to talk in all Spanish while we were there and made a point to cover and talk with us as well as checking on us to make sure food was good and if we needed anything. Highly recommend this place. We will be back!“

“thanks for feeding our #primeelite boys tonight before their first tournament tomorrow! showing love to the locals ❤️🔥“

“Fresh and Delicious! I had Catfish and just WOW! Perfect cooking!“

“Sichuan Place is a fantastic spot for authentic Chinese cuisine with flavors tailored to your spice preference. Whether you love bold, fiery heat or prefer something milder, they’ve got you covered. The Red Dry Chili Chicken is a standout, and the Sweet and Sour Pork ribs are children's favorite. Pepper Beef is always my favorite. The staff is friendly and attentive, ensuring your meal suits your taste. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Sichuan flavors!“

“Love there Chicken and Salmon. There food is delicious 😋. I highly recommended this place.“

“I ordered shrimp, bok choi with fried rice and egg roll. My wife ordered chicken with pea pods, rice and egg roll . We shared a side of "Combination Egg Foo Yung". Everything was perfect.
I am extremely particular about the Chinese food I eat. I'd give 10 stars if I could. Chuck & Linda“

“I love this restaurant!! The food is outstanding. My family and I have NEVER had a bad meal there. The waiters are fantastic and we are always shocked at how fast our food arrives. This is by far my favorite Mexican restaurant in Cincinnati!“

“This place is absolutely phenomenal 😍 I ordered a teriyaki salmon bento box and it came with all of this for $20! Highly recommend! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“great service food was on point I will definitely be back“

“I have always loved E+O but their costumer service these past few days have been top notch. I made an error when getting an online gift card and Kayla immediately hopped in and solved this issue quickly. I love the food and love the atmosphere!“

“Tonight my husband and I celebrated our 21st Wedding Anniversary at Prime in Cincinnati. The food was amazing and so was the atmosphere. We loved our server Mario. He was very friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable and able to answer all questions we had. Mario even suggested drinks and food from the menu. We had a wonderful night. Service was amazing!! Thank you!“

“I've had their salmon burger, mushrooms burger, loaded fries, banana pudding, cakes, onion rings and cheese sticks and loved it 😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“Me pareció pésimo el cobro, hice un consumo de 400.00 y me hicieron pagar una gratificación de 60.00 dólares diciendo que ya estaba computarizado el porcentaje de la propina y que eso es porque cosumi más de 250, obvio que dejaríamos propina pero que me pongas el monto me pareció un robo, NO VOLVEREMOS..“

“Great food and great atmosphere“
