43 Best Seafood Restaurants near East Pittsburgh

“Tugboats is everything you want in a neighborhood spot: friendly people, a welcoming vibe, and amazing food. Jimmy's pizza is hands down the best I've had in Pittsburgh so far and I'm from Philly and have eaten pizza all over, including New York. But you have to get down there early because they sell out of pizza often.
Momma Jackie and the staff treat everyone like family, and they absolutely adore my dog Freya with water, treats, and plenty of love. The deck is the perfect place to sit back with a slice, a drink, and your pup.“

“Great food. Friendly efficient staff. Highly recommend.“

“So, Red Lobster in Pleasant Hills was clean and had a menu with many options. I chose the shrimp skewers and added a scallop one. They were tasty. I added a side of Brussel sprouts. They were delicious. The biscuits were good. The baked potato was done well. All of the staff were friendly . It’s worth a return visit to try the Salmon Bowl or maybe the flounder.“

“The food was absolutely delicious! Thank you so much. My daughter really enjoyed her fries, and the gyro and wings were so, so, so good! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended—we'll definitely be back!“

“🌟 A Sushi Delight in Downtown Pittsburgh! 🌟 If you’re a sushi lover, you absolutely must try the Spider Roll at Luke Wholey’s Wild Alaskan Grille. This incredible roll is a symphony of textures and flavors that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy. Imagine biting into a perfectly crispy USDA soft shell crab, complemented by the fresh crunch of asparagus and cucumber, the creamy richness of avocado, and the delightful pop of masago. This roll is huge and too big for our chopstick skills, so we used our fingers! Each piece is generously topped with a luscious combination of eel sauce, spicy sauce, and a sprinkle of scallions, adding a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spicy notes. For just $19, you get 10 pieces of this culinary masterpiece, making it not only a delicious treat but also a fantastic value. Whether you’re a sushi aficionado or just looking to try something new, the Spider Roll at Luke Wholey’s is a must-try experience in the heart of Pittsburgh. 🍣✨“

“First time here, was hoping for a table outside but there was a 2hr wait (recommend reservations) high tops and bar are first come first serve, found a couple of seats at the bar with no problem. The open air bar has both indoor and outdoor seating. Good food, service wasn't bad, they were understandably busy on a nice day with outdoor waterfront seating. Would definitely go back!“

“We recently held my parents 50th wedding anniversary party there and it was wonderful! Everyone I dealt with, from the event coordinator, kitchen staff, and wait staff, were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our event a special one. I would definitely recommend Rene’s in the future.“

“Buena comida 🥘 súper delicioso Recomiendo mucho mucho, que venga a probar nuestro platillo especial 🍝🍚🧋“

“Don't sleep on the burgers and puppies. The seasoning on the puppies was divine... and the fries were sooo amazing! I wanted the chicken but couldn't have it the day I ate takeout, but it was so delicious and no frills good. Classic.“

“Real nice place with solid takeout or eat in!

Spicy Chicken is one of my favorites, honestly if you like spice I would even ask to make it spicier, but the flavor is top tier! Also love their noodles, good portion sizes and everything is flavored nicely, one of my favorites in the area!“

“Portions are nice and quite big. Ordered the Sesame chicken and orange chicken 🤤for 5 of us and we had enough for leftovers the next day! Plus they’re always super nice and the food is ALWAYS delicious. The Singapore Mei Fun is also really good!“

“My husband and I have been going to the Village Inn for many years now. Everything we have eaten there has been so delicious from sandwiches to great Italian Food . My favorite is the stuffed crabmeat mushroom appetizer, bruschetta and Chicken Romano. The meatballs and pasta are so good. My favorite dessert is the Tiramisu. I highly recommend the Verona Village Inn.“

“Finally got to try this place after wanting to go for a couple of years! Did not disappoint. Delicious food, and importantly, wonderful friendly service. Gives you that down home vibe, that you can immediately trust to be good - homemade with care. We ordered the sampler platter, a soup and fried rice and all were excellent, and again, can't say enough about how warmly we were welcomed. Really glad we stopped while in PGH!“

“I was not expecting it to be so good, we had a party of around 20 so thought it would take a long time to get seated. Well, they got us in right away and they were awesome about getting everyone served in a timely manner. Food was really good, although since the place was empty I was worried at first. I would def try it again. Unfortunately I chipped a tooth prior to going so had to limit myself. But, definitely a YES, DO GO from me on this one.“

“My family stopped by on Saturday afternoon ordered a Pgh pizza and loaded fries. The Pizza was out of this world. The fries were fresh cut and delicious. Our server was Jodie and she was so friendly and efficient we never had to ask a refill on drinks. Most pleasant trip there ever.“

“The chicken parm was very good. Love their sauce! Stuffed peppers were delicious & the wedding soup was good too. Great server B“

“The food here is TO DIE FOR!!! And the service is awesome“

“One of my favorite spots, great service and the oysters are always amazing!“

“We needed a place that had power during the wind storm to feed our kids and actually called asking if they had a kids menu they said yes and even told us what was on it over the phone. We ended up going the kids got chicken, fries and applesauce. Husband and I got salmon and swordfish both vary good, the bread was good,my salad was good husband said the house dressing was a little strong but still good. The waitresses were all great and super friendly. Even the customers were all friendly. The place is a little pricey though so be prepared but worth it for the price, the amount of food and the service. We'll be back!“

“First time ordering from here. Got the Catfish platter. It was tremendous! Great food, huge portions, and cooked just right. If you’re looking for some good fish for Lent, check this place out! 👍👍“

“Ordered their General Tso’s (white meat) and it was hands down the best General Tso’s I’ve ever had. I had their chicken and broccoli before, which was also sooo good, but this was definitely a pleasant surprise. Will definitely be ordering here more in the future!“

“I love that they’re open early & the food is absolutely amazing! I eat here a lot, never been dissatisfied - especially with the chicken and waffles which is coming to the menu soon. I even recommended them to friends and they absolutely loved it. Fantastic establishment ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“My favorite place!! The seasoning is the best part, I always ask for extra in addition to buying a side of it so I can cover everything in it 🤣 I’ve tried quite a few of their seafood options- shrimp, cod, perch, catfish filet & nuggets- and have never been disappointed by any of them. The pick 2 combo with shrimp and catfish nuggets is my go-to though, best catfish I’ve ever had. The fries are always hot and crispy even when I get them delivered through doordash, and the hush puppies are great too. And you gotta have the funnel cake sticks for dessert! I love Hook 💕🐟🍤“

“Absolutely delicious. A 6 piece is only $10.99. I came here just visiting before I even moved to PA years ago & im relieved it’s still just as good. Not sure about others experiences but the guy working was very sweet & the chicken was perfect. Thank you 🙏🏼“

“The flavor of the food is well season right with a unique great taste😋The egg rolls that they created is different with some flavor to choose from like seafood and steak that is out of this world when it come to the flavor also the sauce that came with it just added another level of awesome flavor that satisfy your taste bud. 😋They have a wide variety of delicious food that they have there. Great atmosphere nice people who prepared serve and deliver quality that put a huge smile on your face and enjoyable food that they prepare with love. I highly recommended 3 Good Brothers this establishment is worth going there to order some awesome variety of food.😋“

“Well, went to Storming Crab in homestead, pa. I was so disapointed. First I ordered a drink. Cranberry and top shelf vodka. Came with no vodka, plain cranberry. People at the bar said they didn't make that drink?? It took over 20 min for the girl to take our food order, which took another 20 min to get and when it came no ketchup or tartar sauce. So waited for condiments which never came, in the meantime we were done eating and another member of our party still hadn't received his seafood boil. Still no tartar sauce, shrimp very cold, now the seafood boil comes. Still no tartar sauce. So they cold shrimp was taken off the bill. I don't understand the time span, looks like they need more workers. Just too slow. I'm not going to give them another chance, first impression last impression plus corn was ordered and told Jazlyn was missing, never got it. With this service this place won't be here long.“

“Tried the General tsos chicken, and pork fried rice. The tsos was pretty good in terms of flavor and spice, but the chicken pieces felt a touch lacking. The pork fried rice was one of the better fried rice dishes I have had in the area but certainly not the best. Overall would certainly recommend.“

“Food and staff are fantastic and so sweet. I got the shrimp pineapple boat. I got it to go because the music was a little too loud for my tasting but they wrapped it up very nicely. For those complaining that the prices are too high It was only about $3.50 more than Bahama Breeze and so much tastier and better quality plus now I know where I can get it without having to drive all the way to Robinson. They could however use some better advertising as I would have never known about this place if I hadn’t seen a Facebook post.“

“On Sunday we had an In house catered party for dinner and it was excellent! The food was topnotch and the service was great! Special shout out to our server, Bram (Brahm). He was efficient, kind, and organized. From the drinks served before, to the food, then the cake,and packing us up to go, he did it all with a little help by Samantha. There was not one complaint from our party of 20. Thanks so much to all! All I can add is yum!!“

“Hot & sour soup. (Rainy day? Easy fix)
Pork lo mein!! (Do it)
Sauteed string beans (vegetarians take note)
Steamed rice please.
No. 5 spicy!!!
Lunch special, yes
A working class delight!“

“I absolutely love Coast and Main. Amazing staff, amazing menu and the food and drinks are always on point! Brunch is my favorite!“

“I want to give a huge shout out to the elderly african American lady working tonight around 630pm to 715pm. She walked around the entire restaurant and asked how everyone was doing if they needed anything or if they were satisfied with there food. Never in my 36 years have i seen this type of compassion, service and just a kind soul ever and especially not in no fast food.“

“Oh hands down the chef take the expected and makes it the unexpected blowing your taste buds away leaving you feeling like “AMAZING” Must do in East Liberty Area!!!“

“Papu provides the best service! 5/5 Complimentary Chai and Chile cheese naan (new menu item) is excellent!“

“There aren't too many of these places left and I'm glad this one in Penn Hills got it together, cause they used to be HORRIBLE. They have improved in a MAJOR way as far as the SERVICE. The past few times I've been in there, the people taking the orders were prompt and polite. Even if they were busy, someone at least acknowledged you. That alone went a long way compared to what it used to be. I'm thankful for the new leadership in that place, it's made a difference. The food is what the food is. Lol. It's still good ole Long John Silver. It's nice, cause it's hasn't taken forever to get the food either. The crew in the kitchen was on it. And heck.... They even have a large type matt on the floor where you order your food, so your not sliding your feet across the floor from all the grease in the air lol ... Great job Long Silver, I hope they are able to keep up the now good service.“

“Wasn't worth the 40 minute drive or the $120 bill for 5 ppl with one of them being 3.“
