50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Gladwyne

“Not a busy night but Jennifer gave us a late date that we could make and we reciprocated by sitting down upon arrival rather than enjoying some bar time.The entire staff worked together to make it feel unrushed, and we had a much needed relaxing meal in a family environment.“

“I had snapper soup there. It was an 11 out of a possible 10. My wife had New England clam chowder it is (her score system) a 10 out of 10. Best ever. Unfortunately, they do not currently have snapper soup. Missing the old Bookbinder too. Signed, Old Philadelphia natives.“

“My daughter and I were fortunate to have Stephanie as our server. She was the ultimate professional being attentive without feeling intrusive. As always, we had the ultimate in fine dining as our experience. Looking forward to returning soon!“

“Our first experience at a James Beard award winning restaurant (2017) and chef was incredible at Vernick Fish in Philadelphia to celebrate Trent’s graduation! I know now what this caliber of food and service means and all other restaurants pale in comparison to Vernick Fish and Greg Vernick(semi-finalist chef 2025). From the appetizers (dozen oysters from RI, MA, ME, PEI) to the drinks and main course were all uniquely exquisite and cannot be replicated anywhere else. The constant doting with new silverware at each course and cleaning of the table was undeniably royalty treatment. Even the bathroom was an experience-I need the hand lotion in my life (instantly made my hands look 30 years younger). The portions, ambiance and service were all equally perfect! I highly recommend you check out Vernick Fish. We will definitely return!“

“The Food was Fresh ad Incredible“

“We found Pearl and Mary quite by accident while looking for out door seating so as to enjoy a beautiful Philadelphia evening. And we were not disappointed. Location; perfect, food; perfect, service; exemplary...doesn't get any better👍🏻“

“As a travel agent, food is important to me. I not only book for my clients, but I also make restaurant recommendations and WOW!!!!!! This place is it 😍😍😍 I took many photos last night of the food, the atmosphere felt as though I was not in Philadelphia, but far away on a perfect vacation dining at an amazing restaurant. I'm going to post my photos on my business page, people, if you want Greek food, THIS IS YOUR PLACE ☺️ Thank you for a wonderful hospitality and an amazing time my fiance and I will never forget.“

“Thank you to all tonight! We were celebrating the impending birth of our grandson with his other grandfather! Our children are 1st time parents!! Christina was perfection, knowledge and sweetness all at once! Everyone treated us great! Thank you Christine for all your help! Looking forward to returning w/ the new Mommy & Daddy! Thank you all again. 3 excited grandparents!“

“IT WAS DELICIOUS! Definitely worth the trip and price! I will be back!“

“The bartender, Colin Krouse, was AWESOME!!“

“Great food!! It never disappoints.“

“Waitress was very knowledgeable about the cuisine. Other staff were friendly and courteous. Food was excellent, tastes wonderful and plated beautifully. The interior might remind you of an old time elegant railroad car with curved ceiling, crystal chandeliers, etc. great place for special occasions.“

“Always a Pleasure to have a Pleasure Platter. The lobster Bisque is my favorite.“

“You probably won't have high expectations when you roll up to this place as it isn't fancy, but don't judge a book by its cover. I made the horrible mistake of eating at Pat's the other day, and the meat tasted like shoe leather. This little joint served up a perfectly seasoned hot cheesesteak and a great milkshake - I'll definitely be back.“

“Loved this omakase experience. Very reasonably priced and all of the fish was excellent and fresh. More simple dishes and less of a show than others I have gone to which I personally prefer. Felt genuine like a secret hole in the wall. Will be going again“

“Have not been to Creed's in many years. Decided to celebrate husband's 60th birthday there and had a great experience. Generous portion sizes. He had the ribeye steak, Texas hash and Brussels sprouts special of the evening; thoroughly enjoyed it, as well as his wine choice. Could not quite finish his steak, which is indeed a rare occurrence. I had salmon and shrimp with risotto and roasted carrots. Yummy! Routinely take half of any restaurant meal home. Our complimentary crème brule with a candle was the perfect finishing touch. Overall a better value for our money than their competition.“

“Good food. Good customer service.“

“Unique food, cozy, candlelit atmosphere. Our group enjoyed it tremendously. Highly recommend.“

“My boyfriend and I went in for dinner and drinks. It was our first time there and everyone was awesome. LeAnn took such good care of us and made our experience even better than expected. The food and drinks were great we will definitely be back!“

“Great menu, nice bar scene!“

“Love their seafood boils“

“Customer service was exceptional. Seating area was a bit small but everyone was so friendly and worked as a team. Honestly the best service I ever had. I went for restaurant week and ordered the shrimp creole. Omg I cleaned my plate and was still salivating over the idea of more when I got home. My partner ordered the crab soup and the salmon. Eyes rolled in the back of his head y’all. Everything was so well and for my first time they left a lasting impression. Would definitely dine here again. I’m just disappointed the shrimp creole isn’t on the regular menu.“

“Had Friday dinner out with friends!
Pricey but overall a good experience!
The restaurant is on the 3rd floor. There is an elevator going straight to the restaurant.
Spacious and family friendly.
Wheelchair accessible.“

“So happy to find this restaurant. Sam our server was amazing. The veal saltimbocca was to die for! Only thing I question is the portion of calamari was not big at all. Everything else on point and I won't ding then for that, the food was too good“

“The shrimp smd the crab devil eggs was delicious 😋“

“I moved to the neighborhood from Brooklyn recently. One day while walking around, I passed this unassuming place. The only indication that it was open was a chair outside with a bouquet of flowers to pin down a paper menu to the chair. The menu looked divine.

A few days later I walked past, showing my partner that the place almost seemed closed from the outside but was very cute inside. Someone who worked there came out as we were looking and was very kind, asking us if we had reservations yet. We said no but booked immediately.

The first time I visited, I had the sourdough, Marinated Mussels (hakurei turnips, miso, chili oil), Carrot (crab, brown butter), Shrimp (peaches, coppa, toasted marcona almonds), and Gnudi (corn& basil). It was an entirely no-skips meal. The mussels came cold, out of their shell, and the sauce was incredible. The “carrot” was more like a crab cake with coconut, brown butter, and an unidentifiable but delightful citrus. A perfect balance of rich & light. The gnudi seemed simple, but the lightly spicy sauce really pulled all the ingredients together. Finally, the shrimp with peaches really knocked my socks off. Lots of places will make “seasonal” menus but not put the effort into making sure that produce is top notch. The peaches would’ve been delicious on their own, but with the rest of the dish, they really shined.

The second time I went (just a few weeks later) I got the Chicory Salad (anchovy, buttermilk, comte), the Steelhead Trout (sungold tomato, perilla), and a tuna crudo special. I also re-ordered the bread, the carrot with crab, and the gnudi. Everything was just as good as last time, and the new additions were truly worth trying. Something as simple as a chicory salad can be so hit or miss - but WOW!

For dessert we had the cherry brown butter tart with crème fraiche. No complaints at all here.

Now I’ve rambled on plenty about the delicious food, which I will be back for very soon, but I truly haven’t ever been to a place with better service. The workers are extremely attentive and kind. I felt like I’ve known everyone there for a long time.

Thank you, Illata, for being such a wonderful neighborhood spot.“

“We visited Pera and it is great to know that the restaurant met expectations and was consistent with the excellent review in the PHiladelphia Inquirer.“

“The poke bowl was deeeelicious.“

“You will not be disappointed, from the ambiance, the friendly, professional service and the delicious food!“

“Food is fresh. Food is delicious. Prices are Reasonable, I Truly hope that does not change. Customer service is good, pleasant. Our family orders roughly about 1 time a week since we found this place about 2 months ago. 3 combos please! Lol We are definitely repeat Customers.“

“Never disappointed after years of going there. Had 2 orders of shrimp and chips and large order of crinkle cut fries to share with my son. The food was hot and the order was ready quickly. From ordering to receiving orders was not even 7 Mins. I don't have any pics , devoured it hot in the car, before even leaving the parking spot.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's an outside order window. That they can roll up too“

“Finally went and boy it was worth it!!! Came from Zerlin (Berlin NJ) and got the chicken hoagie with fries. I have no idea how they keep that roll so flavorful and juicy! The chicken was to die for and perfectly seasoned! I hope you are in Zamden again Friday even though it’s going to be a rain soaker.“

“True hospitality! I arrived last night after evacuating from Florida. Kenja and the executive chef brought me to tears because of the hospitality, warmth and concern for me and the people of Florida. 🫶🏼. This is what a high end restaurant is supposed to be. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.“

“Great seafood restaurant in the Fairmount area!!!“

“Delicious Indian cuisine. I’ve been struggling to find a good Indian restaurant since I moved to the Philly area about 6 months ago, and I mean really struggling. Out of all of the places I’ve tried, Srinagar takes the cake!!! The Chicken Tikka Masala is incredible and is the perfect spice level for a medium. I did only get delivery via a third party service, but would certainly consider eating in next time. Will be eating here again!!!“

“I really wish I could give a stellar review because the food is absolutely fabulous here. Not to mention, they will modify anything on the menu to food specifications, for instance for me who can't have gluten, eats only seafood and no cheese. Yes, they work with this with ease and everything is delicious.

The reason I can't give an amazing review is because having gone twice now, the first time our service was excellent and the second time more recently the service was very poor. Our food came out at different times to the table and as a group of four it was very disruptive. Also, many tables were turned over before we even got half way through our meal. I'm not sure what happened to be honest. I will say this was not our experience the first time we went and given how amazing the food is we will try it again.

The response from the owner that he would reach out was completely false. It is over 2 weeks now and I have heard nothing. For me, the irony was I was actually planning to come back out. But now…. ?‍♀️.

Dietary restrictions: They will modify any item on the menu to meet your needs. They are very good with handling gluten concerns particularly.“

“Excellent Happy Hour!!! Will definitely dine here again!!“

“Hello, I wasn’t sure because of the name but I’m glad I stopped. I had the Hibachi mix vegetable w chucks of chicken and nice size shrimp and fried rice, everything was deliciously fresh my rice was not sticky, and it came with a side salad, Thumps Up to #DrunkeCrab!! top off w a breath mint.“

“The Best Restaurant/Bar in all of Conshohocken. Whether you are going for wings and a pitcher with friends or dinner with your family, the food is always good, the service friendly and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Thankful for this neighborhood gem!“

“Literally one of my favorites in Philly, Bistro Southeast never disappoints! I have eaten here too many times to not have written a review yet. The food is always flavorful, fresh, and hot. What I like most is that it is always consistent and the portions are sizable. The crab fried rice is my favorite item on their menu but everything I’ve tried has been amazing. The wings are crispy and well seasoned, the salads are refreshing and feeling, the mango sticky rice is the perfect balance of sweet and savory…I’ve tried other dishes as well, just too many to list haha! In addition to the food, the service is great. The staff is always so friendly, they play apart in how frequently I eat there as well. I don’t have any pictures of my food because when I remember to take them my food is already half gone.“

“My boyfriend proposed to me here last weekend, and the staff at DePaul’s table were incredibly warm, professional and helped make it so special. They were all in on the surprise, and helped us capture the memories. They paid attention to every little detail. I’m forever grateful ❤️🥂💍“

“Very good, nice service, comfortable room“

“We were a party of 11 on August 14th there for a retirement luncheon for a co-worker. Seasons 52 went over and beyond our expectations and made the luncheon a 100 x better!! They allowed us to take all the time we needed, the wait staff was first-rate and some of the best I've ever experienced.... They even provided a glass for us to toast the retiree at the end. I would recommend Seasons 52 KOP to everyone!“

“I recently went to Thailand this year and wanted to find a local Philly Thai food spot because I missed it so much. This place did not disappoint!!!!! I am SO excited to go back again. The service was great! The staff was so sweet. The food was incredible!! The menu has a great variety of things so there is something yummy for everyone and it’s BYOB. I can’t wait to try the wings🤤“
