50 Best Seafood Restaurants near York

“Top class service, tasty food, great wine, and just a wonderful experience. I called for a reservation for my girl's birthday a week in advance and the owner remembered without me saying a word when we arrived. At the end he brought her a complimentary delicious French vanilla ice cream topped with a macaron and raspberries filled with caramel. That's world class. As for the main meal, we ordered crab cakes, scallops, and I had the ribeye and she had the striploin. It was cooked exactly the way we love it and the beef quality is absolutely fantastic. The Chilean wine we had with it was fantastic. My desert was a warm pecan pie a la mode. Just delicious. This is the kind of place you would want to be at for a special birthday. We will 100% be back. Service like this isn't common in Toronto and I think you will enjoy it as much as we did.“

“Jonny the waiter was not only attentive, but also so catering to the needs of our group. He made sure our drinks were always topped up during the live band also while caring for a full out door patio. Matty in the back who carried out my steak did an incredible job not only was it cooked to satisfactory but it was above and beyond what my expectations were I had the best experience I could have asked for and would recommend to anyone i possibly could.

Parking: Tons of parking“

“The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were exceptional. The establishment is very clean and has an upscale feeling with home like treatment. The owner came around to check on each table. Warm and welcoming. My 9 year old grandson loved his food and pinches of the cheek from the maître d’. 😆 We’ve been before and will definitely come back again.“

“One of my family members said this is the best place for Portuguese food in Toronto. We were hungry so we thought we would give it a try. We phoned through our order and went and collected it and once it was home we tucked in. The food was EXCELLENT! There was plenty to go round and for us all. Highly Recommended!“

“I waited purposely to rate this place the day after we ordered. Had left overs and needless to say tasted even better. Ordered the pad Thai. One of the best ones I had in a while. The lemon is nice I added lime and threw more peanuts overall pretty good. Tempura shrimp, and veggies were really good. Yam,mushrooms, and broccoli. Lastly we ordered sushi. Every sushi dish was amazing and the spicy tuna melts velvety and silky in one’s mouth. Our new found favourite place will definitely order again. Thank you for a great experience.“

“My wife is Persian and we live in Scotland. We are visiting family here and we went to the Deedar restaurant for dinner.

Two glasses of super tasty French Chablis followed up by Haddock tacos and the Blackened haddock burger. delicious fries to compliment the dish. Warm and friendly service and probably one of the best lunches we've had this year. Thanks 🙂👍🙂“

“If you are a Seafood lover this place will not disappoint!
The Seafood boil is cooked to perfection in a rich Cajun boil sauce that was to die for, and the Mac & Cheese was extremely well made not your average.
An absolute hidden gem do not miss out on Seafood Kitchen.“

“Wonderful food. Great service. Love the architecture.“

“What a great find, really authentic family run amazing fish and chip shop. This takes you back to the days when little shops in residential areas were popular. Oh wait, this is a little shop in a residential neighborhood.

So delish and reasonable priced.“

“Fabulous Waitress Monika!“

“Woowee! What's not to like about this place. Delicious and fresh seafood, great menu options and attentive yet restrained service. Price point included three courses plus a lovely wine pairing suggestion. Definite repeat visit. Thank you!“

“Great tine, oysters and mussels were out of this world! Most gracious hosts… Alex and Liam and the whole team!“

“Captain Azza’s crab cake is hands down one of the best I’ve ever had—crispy on the outside, tender and flavorful on the inside. The side of couscous was the perfect complement—light, fluffy, and seasoned just right. I also tried the grilled fish—it was perfectly cooked, moist and flaky with just the right amount of char and seasoning that brought out the natural flavor of the fish. What really made the experience memorable though was the kindness of the owner, who surprised us with a complimentary serving of the potato side. Such a thoughtful gesture that shows they truly care about their customers. Amazing food, warm service— Can’t wait to come back!“

“Revising to 5 stars on the kind assurance from the owners that the issue with the chips was indeed a one-off. Looking forward to my next order!

They changed the chips 😞. Please tell me this was a one-off and you've already gone back to the previous chips, which were always proper. These ones were obviously manufactured and cooked from frozen, with some sort of 'crispy coating' on them. Not entirely bad, but not right. Captain John has been our reliable go-to for years now, with consistently fresh tasting fish, crispy batter, and (until now) a generous portion of chips cut from fresh potatoes. Delivery is fast, the food is still piping hot on arrival, and it's packed in carboard and paper so everything stays crispy.... I might give one more try but if the chips are still the new and NOT improved ones, I'm not sure I'll continue ordering from here.“

“We went to Lobster Boil for a late Sunday dinner, and it totally exceeded our expectations! Even though the place was packed, the staff managed to get us a great table right away. From start to finish, everything was amazing — friendly service, a cozy atmosphere, and incredible food! We ordered the Combo for Two, and it was absolutely delicious (and super generous in portion!). Can’t wait to go back and try more dishes — highly recommend this spot! 🦞✨“

““I visited this place for takeout and was greeted by a very friendly staff member who welcomed me with a smile and was eager to help, which felt great. The food was delicious, and the interiors and seating area were impressively clean and well-maintained.“

“Excellent location for a quick bite to eat during anytime of the day from 11am til closing. Try out their seasonal menu avocado and steak tacos newly added in 2022. Raquel and Lisa fully Chops thru and thru "Dynamic Duo!" Shout out to Matt General Manager.“

“So glad you guys are back!“

“Excellent food and service! Would come back.“

“A large Club group of 40 had lunch at the Red Lobster on the Queensway! We had a separate party room for our group. The service was just great and the servers were very pleasant and accommodating. We received our meals in a timely fashion considering the size of the group. The menu is very extensive but varied which serves well to many different tastes and appetites. Everyone in the group really enjoyed their luncheon choices and most had to ask for takeaway cartons. We had couple or individual bills and they were handled efficiently by the staff. All in all, it was a very enjoyable afternoon!“

“Seafood pasta was delicious , my daughter love the oysters and crab cake !“

“I went to Chubby's tonight. I haven't been there for over 30 years, and it was fantastic. I ordered 2 small halibut and chips and a banquet burger, and fries for me. The banquet burger had 3 slices of peameal bacon on it and was fantastic. What a great place. I will be going back soon.“

“We had a recent event at Petros82! The service was amazing along with their delicious food! We will definitely be coming back soon! Highly recommend this restaurant for your corporate events!“

“Amazing food, Amazing service. The Red Lobster in Thornhill is hands down the best restaurant anywhere in York Region.“

“The service was amazing. They really are upscale in their hosting and bartending.

The drinks were 'ok', just nothing special but not bad by any means. Just the cocktails were not big on presentation, and not super high end with the crafting.“

“Mr. Fish is a really special restaurant. Their food is consistently delicious and good value. I take out a lot from here and the food is always nicely packed in a beautiful custom take out bag. I highly recommend the Sauerkraut Pumpkin soup and the Black Vinegar Peanuts! Thanks Mr. Fish for being a staple in this area :-)“

“A unforgettable dining experience last 07/04/25 (Friday)! Shoutout to Chef/Owner Danny Cancino and his team for an impeccable service! 👏 Every dish and the complimentary additions were phenomenal! The modern twist in Filipino cuisine was definitely well done!💖🌟 Here are some of my standout favorites 🤯: • Pineapple + Kombu (Seaweed): Refreshing and light, with crispy seaweed balancing the sweet, citrusy pineapple 💛 • Duck Ensaymada w/ Duck Prosciutto and Truffle Butter: One of the fluffiest breads I’ve ever had, inspired by classic ensaymada. Spreading truffle butter on it was chef’s kiss—it melts in your mouth! 😭👌 • Scallop Inari Lumpia: Beautifully presented with fried sushi rice, ginger-chili dressed Argentinian shrimp, and seared scallop on top. The rice was fluffy and so tasty I could eat it endlessly! • Iberico Pork Collar: Juicy, saucy, and umami-packed tender pork with chicharon, lettuce leaves, and sesame aioli. The pickled papaya (atchara) was a nice touch—I don’t usually eat atchara, but I loved it with this! • Beef Short Rib Kare-Kare: The star of the show! 🌟👏 Rich, classic kare-kare flavors with blanched bok choy and eggplant. The thick, peanuty sauce was delightful—if only there was rice! 🤣😋 Hope as many people as possible get to try this ultimate gourmet experience, whether you’re visiting Toronto or a Canada local! 🌟 Thank you Mineral!☺️Until we visit again!“

“a month ago I can't find enough words for how amazing this place is! From the beginning placing the order online to when we finished eating, was absolutely stellar. I ordered the King Crab boil with extras and initially the order was cancelled but they called me IMMEDIATELY to advise they had only one king crab left but would substitute it with snow crabs. Utterly friendly and courteous is an understatement! Best customer service. We got the food delivered in less time than anticipated, and the packaging was insanely proper. No spillage, good containers! The restaurant called me almost immediately after the food was delivered to find out if everything was good! My heart melted and I couldn't thank them enough for making this dinner so special The taste of the food OMG no no words in the English language can deserve it! Juicy, flavourful, succulent, fresh, homemade seasoned! Delicious from the moment I smelled it to the last morsel that was eaten Will be ordering from there again without a shadow of a doubt. Thank you so much from my family to yours“

“Trevor, our server was wonderful and the food was fantastic!“

“I recently visited Red Lobster in Toronto, and being from Newfoundland, I’ll admit my expectations for seafood are always high – but I was not disappointed! Every dish tasted fresh and flavorful, with that comforting touch you hope for when you’re away from home.

For some reason, it honestly felt like the menu was designed just for me. From the variety of seafood options to the classic sides, everything hit the spot perfectly. The service was friendly and welcoming, which only added to the experience.

If you’re a seafood lover (or a Newfoundlander missing a taste of home), Red Lobster in Toronto is definitely worth a visit.“

“waa there for lunch on August 1st, had the lobster roll with french fries and Mac and cheese.it was delicious. being there at lunch hour service was fast. I highly recommend this place.“
