50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Portland

“Great date night! We celebrated our first wedding anniversary here last night and every single thing we ordered was excellent. The wine/bubbles list is impressive also.“

“Good Food, Great Atmosphere and the serving staff were very friendly and welcoming, I very pleasant dining experience from start to finish.“

“I scheduled dinner at Cabezon because I wanted to enjoy a fine meal and good conversation with a friend. The atmosphere at Cabezon is very conducive to conversation. The background noise is minimal and the atmosphere inviting. As usual the choices we're all tempting which made the decision a little difficult. But I was not disappointed. My meal was excellent. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. He checked back frequently to make sure that our needs were met. I will be back again, and again!“

“couldn't have asked for a better meal. Everything we ordered exceeded expectations, and our server Bodie provided some of the best service we have ever had, anywhere.“

“We were there for the first time on the evening of January 10, 2026. We sat at the bar for a bit because we were a little early for our reservation. Michelle brought us a couple of beers and we ordered a plate of six oysters. She chatted cheerfully with us while she busily poured drinks for others and then introduced us to her two sons and a son’s girlfriend, who all also work there. Everyone was so friendly and kind! When our table was ready, Michelle thanked us for being there and said that it was great to meet us. At our table, we ordered another half dozen oysters, a caesar salad, a couple more beers, and two big bowls of cioppino. Absolutely delicious with the large, thick slices of freshly-made garlic bread for dunking. This place is a true gem. Four generation of family working there and their love for the place and what they do shows. Can’t wait to go back!!“

“Been coming here my whole life! Still my favorite restaurant of all time, even after all this time!“

“Seafood was delicious and very good service!“

“Had a great d be inner. Wonderful tasting food and great views.“

“Loved this place! Service ! Quality ! Ambiance!“

“We met some friends for dinner after not seeing them for some time. Kasia was our waitress. She was a delight. We stayed longer than normal, catching up with friends. She did a great job never saying its time for you to leave. Didn't interupt our dinner, just kept everything coming like it should“

“quality local ingredients, meticulous preparation, disappointing balance in dishes.

seductively smoky, delicious fatty lamb was paired with really crispy crunchy yet soft potatoes and some clearly organic high quality seasonally harvested grilled spring onions. and that was it.

i was surprised and sad to find that my $40 entree had absolutely no acid apart from the slightly sheepishly out of place bottle of tabasco to balance the overwhelming richness of the flavors.

the gnocchi had a similar story where all the ingredients and preparations were top class but way too rich and unbalanced to finish satisfyingly.

the pannisa was actually cool but ultimately too dry. the seasonal bee pollen and local honey barely got noticed because of how much liquid i had to drink to be able to swallow the bite.

drinks were top notch, the salad that we were recommended was excellent and there was absolutely plenty more to like, but it was like someone put on a bunch of extremely high quality clothes but without any forethought of how the end outfit would look like. and almost as if he knew, the waiter never once even checked or asked how we liked the food or drink.

ultimately, it is undeniable that there is talent working the kitchen here and the owner cares about sourcing and using quality ingredients. the final detail to focus on would be making sure the elements come together to make all the effort more satisfyingly acknowledgeable.“

“Amazing food and service! Love love this place!!!“

“Found out about Jake's when looking for a nice restaurant to try while visiting Portland. Couldn't have picked a better place, the atmosphere was lovely, the staff had infectious positive attitudes, and the food was fantastic. Genuinely the best steakhouse I've been to in a long time, our server Michael was extremely attentive but not overly so! He regularly checked up on us and I don't think I could keep an empty water glass if I tried! I swear one time I set it down and he was already filling it, thank you for the wonderful dining experience Michael! Will definitely come here again!“

“I recommend this restaurant, I'm coming from Seattle WA with my family and we went to eat there, very good food, good customer service, everything clean. I invite you to visit them, you will love it.“

“One of the greatest joys in visiting Portland for the first time is having excellent food and outstanding service; this place definitely deserves above 5 star rating and I’m grateful for the excellent service and food quality here . Connor was literally one of the best servers ever. Very professional, providing great hospitality and handsome for sure“

“Tasty Corner is my favorite Chinese food place in Portland Oregon. Their prices are pretty reasonable considering the size the of the portions, and the vegetables are always very fresh. Try the Dry Cooked String Beans (by themself or with a protein) and the Eggplant with Fried Tofu. So good!“

“Absolutely amazing food but that wasn't even the best part. The service we were provided by Drew was phenomenal!! Drees kindness and awesome personality will have us coming back time and time again! Thank you Drew for being the best server ever!!“

“I had the seared ahi tuna. So delicious 😍 Such a great environment to escape away on a Saturday or any day.“

“Our server Jennifer was the sweetest 🥹 which made the food even more incredible 😋😋😋 will def be back 🙌🏽“

“delicious five stars I buy every time I see them open the lobster Mac and cheese us my favorite everything is delicious“

“Convenient food truck with yummy oysters. If the weather is nice you can sit in a very nice open space. Reasonably priced seafood. Yum yum 😋“

“Our first time and it was delish!“

“If you have a group then expect everyone is going to pay the eat all you can price. Honestly I do think it’s overpriced. Lobster tail is another $25++ It is overwhelming when you see all these seafood right on a tray. Don’t eat too much of the appetizer. Else you don’t get the value of the eat all you can. Overall if you’re feeling you can eat a lot, go for it.“

“Totally amazed with Normandie. Excellently prepared inventive menu, relaxed and friendly expert service, updated classic cocktails (in a good way), and a few flavors and techniques we’ve never had. Go!“

“we just went for the first time. great food, great service and great selection of food. we will definitely go back.“

“They have the best ribeye in Portland and it's my daughter's favorite is their filet. I had my ribeye encrusted with the blue cheese and roasted garlic which put it over the top. They only negative was the carrot cake it was dry and had no nuts even though we were told it had pecan's and their overall desert menu is boring.“

“SeaSweets Poke is my favorite restaurant in Oregon. Their staff is wonderful and the food is amazing!!“

“Encantada mis amigas y yo fuimos a celebrar el día de las madres y quedamos maravilladas,personal super agradable,ambiente acogedor y una rica comida,de 10 le doy 20 super recomendado y volveremos pronto,todo un show expectacular“

“Great food, I like the shark fin soup, not sure if that's what its called but it's light and nice. The mapo tofu wasn't as spicy and quite bland but good texture. Go-to dish is the salt & pepper squid, the green beans, and hong kong style spare ribs!

I came in around 8 PM so there wasn't anyone besides one other table so it was not loud as usual. Been coming to this place with family for years, they don't disappoint. There can be a language barrier but the staff are very kind. They also offer oranges at the end.“

“FINALLY FOUND THE BEST STREET TACOS OF PORTLAND!!!!
Definitely going back and as this was my 1st trip, I'm going to encourage all my taco-fiends to go too! If you're thinking about it, STOP THINKING and just GO!!!! you'll not regret it.
The only con was the Horchata was a little bit too sweet and I had to split mine into 3 servings and add my own milk.“

“Awesome!! So good. Excellent flavors and staff!!“

“Excellent food. Great staff. Very nice experience“

“Good location .Good food and a great staff“

“Are Server was Nick super nice guy 😊 I had the chicken and my wife had the shrimp. Having just gone to Nola not to far back it was really nice to have this caliber of food here in are back yard.“

“The food was amazing and service was great. We will be back and definitely recommend“

“hood dim sum. attentive servers“

“We were visiting from out of state and went into the restaurant for lunch. Service was wonderful. I'm not sure if it was the owner that greeted us, but a much older gentleman definitely welcomed our big group and accommodated a round table to fit our group. We ordered plenty and the food came out fresh, hot and delicious. I had the intestine dried pot stir fry and it was tasty. I tried other dishes that were on my table as well and everything was on point! If I visit Portland again, I'll definitely stop by the restaurant for another round. Kudos to the older gentleman that kept checking in with our group and made sure we had everything we needed. Sir, thank you and keep up the great customer service you and your team are doing! Thanks to the cooks for making such a memorable flavor! I'm telling people I know about this restaurant. I hope you don't mind the business. :) God Bless! Have a wonderful day.“

“I love City Thai soooo much!! Hands down my favorite Thai food in the city. Always good, always fresh, always smiling faces! I just got my 42nd order (just guessing) to-go and it's just as good as the first!! Do yourself a favor, and order the 'Oh My God Rolls' you can thank me later ;)“

“Sho is our favorite restaurant in the neighborhood. Katsu and his team are awesome.“

“Amazing halibut and fries. The clam chowder is really something.“

“First visit today. Throwback pricing, truly. I don't know how it works but they are charging what I would have expected to pay ten years ago. It was a great value. No, it isn't pretty outside. That does not matter. I can't believe somebody left a bad review based on that, while never having eaten here. It was plenty comfortable and the service was fast and friendly enough. The food was very good. We will be back.“

“I ordered takeout here. They were super prompt and prices were fair. The staff was so friendly and the vegan noodle soup was delicious. The veggies were so fresh and cooked to perfection. The interior of the restaurant had a really nice vibe and appeared very clean. I will definitely be back!“
