13 Best Seafood Restaurants near Ephrata

“The food is good but only have one issue. We have called in orders multiple times and my girlfriend asks for a cheeseburger but they have given her a cheeseburger sub and I am not sure why. I have explained to them I did not order a sub and we asked for a cheeseburger.“

“Country-fried steak the size of the plate with salad (huge) and 2 sides for $13.99 and all of the food was good except the pickled beets which were barely pickled. Friendly waitstaff. Clean. Loved it as the Evergreen and will continue to go as the Ephrata Plaza Diner! Only negative- no fried chicken basket. That should be a must in every diner!“

“The whole dining experience was more than excellent; it was damn-near perfect! I'm not much of a raw fish person, but I tasted my wife's tuna tartare appetizer and loved it. My oysters Rockefeller appetizer was a delicately balanced, excellent preparation. For my main course I had the whole Branzino, expertly deboned for me at tableside, and it was marvelous. At that point we did not need dessert, but the list of available after dinner drinks was awesome! Kudos also to our server Casey, who helped to make the evening memorable.“

“Our group loved sitting in the sun room. Most popular entrees were Steak Skewer Wedge salads, Jamaican Jerk Salmon, Spicy Shrimp Noodle Bowl and Cedar-Roasted Salmon. A little disappointed with Grilled Peruvian-Style Half Chicken. Enjoyed the Thai Beef Skewers, and Caputo Brother's Whipped Ricotta appetizer. Group did not care for the shredded Chicken in Peruvian Chicken Lettuce Wraps. Overall we had a great dining experience and we all agreed we would return.“

“My grandson requested to go here for his 12th bday. It was a lot of fun and messy! You choose your spice level and sauces. The entree comes out in an individual plastic cooking bag and you can eat from the bag or dump in the provided tray. You have many choices to choose from.“

“It's been over five years since we were last here. It was an o.k. experience so we never came back (Lancaster County, where we live, has a lot of nice restaurants.) But my wife's sister and her husband were visiting and we thought we'd take a chance. WOW, we're we impressed. The food was great and our waitress (Ashley) was even better than the food. (She would get 6 stars if they were available). Thank you all for helping make a wonderful evening even better.“

“Excellent service and the Chinese food is delicious and different.I come from Brooklyn, NY, where Chinese food there is known to be the finest. It all looks nice and yellow and very flavorful.But here, the food features are less vivid visibly, and the flavor is not overwhelming. Hence, the mixed reviews. But the reality is that their food is naturally made and not americanized. You can tell it's true because this place is family owned, and it feels like you're walking into a welcoming home when you enter an amazing place to dine.The rice is not plastic the next day, and the food is overall more filling than average Chinese food. They got the edge over others by providing good, tasting homemade Chinese food over typical cheap stuff made from leftovers.“

“The lobster roll and fries were excellent and reminded me of favorite restaurant in New England . The key lime pie was delicious. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Great experience for our first visit. Will definitely be back when in Lancaster again.“

“Took a walk on this lovely day for lunch ? been here before and have never been disappointed. Ordered a dinner platter that came with 2 sides, asked for Salmon (which wasn't a fish option on the menu) and they were very accommodating. My total was $28.62 (tax included), which I initially felt was steep. Then I considered that what I spend at carrabas or bone fish grill would be about the same price or slightly less. Now when I took a bite, any money angst went out the window. the Salmon was SO FRESH and blackened to seasonal delitie. The asparagus (option for a hot veggie) was done perfectly and lightly seasoned and the fries were a kiss from heaven (I came for the fries ?). All in all perfect meal, healthy portion size, and always a pleasure to support a local small business! Thanks Mr. BILL'S and The Fat Crab Cafe. I'll be back ??“

“First time visitors! My boyfriend had the Mediterranean chicken which came with 2 sides. He chose a baked potato and mac and cheese. I got the Pastitsio. We both really enjoyed our meals and were stuffed when we left. It was my boyfriend’s birthday and the waiter offered him a free dessert. He turned it down because he was full and couldnt eat anything else. The waiter brought champagne over for us and another couple we were with to celebrate. Wonderful food and service!“

“We don't get a chance to eat out very often. It just seems eating out in general has become so expensive over the last few years. BUT........ we had a friend from Chicago visiting. We had the pleasure of having Kendra wait on us. Her service to us was magnificent. I always love leaving tips for people such as this. We thank her again for making our evening so enjoyable for our friend. It made our night.3 Dishes: Fish and Chips. Scottish salmon with crab and shrimp. (Ranch dressing could stand to be improved.) Acholi Salmon. All were good.“

“The best $10 lunch value in the state! This type of buffet really doesn't exist much anymore and definitely not with this many choices of chicken (at least 8 different to choose from). The food was very good but a couple dishes were a bit cold which is to be expected with a buffet like this. Employees were very kind as well and we will definitely stop here again if in the area“

“That never asked if we wanted Desert, who does that.....They also add 18% Tip on with your bill. I have Never seen that before unless you have a party of 6 or more people. There were only 2 of us. So they put it on Everyone s bill. That's not cool.“
