50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Glenside

“Went there before a show at Keswick-
Friendly staff and professional
Food came pretty quick and all were tasty. We had the fish of the day, the tuna and the cotletta- all were delish- we also tried the Albanian desert with the pistachio/filo cheesecake- both were yum- the cheesecake isn’t like American cheesecakes, I liked it!
The place is clean.
It’s also BYOB- liquor store is right around the corner“

“I'm from the Philly Suburbs originally. When I go home to visit I make a point to stop in Lew's. They recently updated their awning so it now has "Public House" in larger letters larger than "Lew's" so I temporarily panicked that it might have changed owners. Fortunately its still the same. If you like a nice cold beer and fresh seafood this is a great casual spot.“

“I love supporting local businesses and captain's choice is on of my go to spots for beer or a seafood platter. He definitely has great prices on beer. He also sells wine as well as other alcohol drinks and cigarettes. My only complaint is that when you order the fried flounder platter they always give such a tiny amount of fries not even a handful of fries. I wish they would give you more fries with the meal. Also there the only place in the Mayfair area in my knowledge that sells cups of Philadelphia water ice all year around which I absolutely love.“

“Great Food & Great Staff!!“

“It's in a difficult spot, but the owner is magnificent. I have been eating there for 20 years and the food quality has not changed.

Parking: There is always street parking. And it's usually about a half hour wait. But good things come to those who wait. ;)“

“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“

“We are never disappointed here time after time always very good“

“Food is delicious, prices are reasonable! 🦀🦐❤️🦐🦀“

“The place is old and reminds me of chickn lickn in Logan when I was growing up
The food is perfection
Prices are great
The lady took my money. However, she checked the camera to see if I gave her the right bill
I love the food but might not patronize due to the rudeness“

“Ok so, service was friendly and fellow taking orders was very patient and polite. I ordered the Gumbo which seemed rushed. It had no true flavor. I also ordered crab cakes which were a huge disappointment because i expected lump cakes but it was more like store bought heavily breaded cakes. Finally my friend had the Alfredo and he enjoyed it but i did not. Sauce was watery and didn’t smell at all like Parmesan. In their defense i should have likely kept is crabs and shrimp. If i try them again that’s what i will do!“

“Food is delicious, prices are reasonable! 🦀🦐❤️🦐🦀“

“Chef Robert was an absolute dream to work with. He went above and beyond for our special day, no small task or gesture went unnoticed. The food was absolutely amazing and we were lucky enough to enjoy many left overs afterwards. Anyone who books Baccio for their next catered event is in very goods hands. Thank you Chef Robert for making our special day so perfect!“

“Place is always clean service is prompt sometimes too prompt with the ladies working there. Fish cleaners do an excellent job at least on my orders. No complaints hope they stay in neighborhood for a long time. * Even was opened during covid.“

“Good Service and food too.“

“Just tried this restaurant...very pretty inside...service by Stefan was impeccable...he recommended dishes and explained the spice level...fish Murchi was delicious as were the pumpkin lamb and lamb with onions and peppers...all 3 desserts are worth trying...will definitely return to try new dishes“

“I haven't had the poke bowls as I'm not a big raw fish person. But the ramen is pretty darn good. I've had all but 1 flavor(tonkatsu). my favorite so far is the tan tan flavor😋😋😋. the prices are decent for ramen same as going to Chinatown. Def give it a try!“

“We just found Bucks Gyro Truck while driving by and had to stop and we are so glad we did! Great food. Better than the restaurants around and for a much better price. The flavors were amazing. The guy who served us was really friendly! This is gonna be our new go to place.“

“An amazing meal from start to finish. Fortunately, I was with a group so we were able to order a number of things off the menu. Our favorites were the shaved artichokes, the malloreddus pasta, the pork belly, and the entrecote, but really everything was so tasty and delicious. The drinks were also great too, and we were able to grab after dinner drinks at Caletta, the cocktail bar next door.“

“My highlights are the staff they're great they're friendly delightful place to be .. Now let's talk about those shrimps So yummy so good very Tasty“

“my first experience with jerk chicken... it was awesome. Thank you!“

“everything crabs shrinp Cajun seafood salad $1.00 shrimps on Saturday u name it everything is amazing“

“Though ownership has changed over the years, this has always been my go-to fish store since childhood. Whenever I’m in the area, I know exactly where to stop. I’ve only ever purchased fish here, and with fresh fish stores becoming rare, I’m grateful this one is still around.“

“After hearing many good things we had them for dinner tonight. We each got a wrap: the “favalafel”, chicken schnitzel, and beef brisket, plus we got the spicy lamb hand pie and “bff” crispy potatoes to share. The favalafel was tasty although the person ordering it suggested they’ll add hummus next time for some extra binder. The schnitzel was also tasty although a bite or two was more on the spicy side than the rest due to a concentration of the spread there. The beef brisket was a real stand-out although a bit messy to eat because of the sauce. The spicy lamb had a nice crisp wrapper and was spicy as advertised. The crispy potatoes were fried to perfection and the zhoug-black garlic ketchup was a nice accompaniment. We will definitely be ordering from here again!“

“My go to Indian food place in Philly. Ekta is the best! I’ve tried others and none compare. The saag paneer and the lamb/chicken tikka masala taste amazing. Their mango lassi that they pre-make is a nice side to the meal.

Although there are tables in the restaurant, it isn’t really a sit down place. Something to be mindful of if you are looking for a sit down, dining experience.“

“My family and I’ve been here a handful of times. We’ve enjoyed birthdays and time with friends. The food is delicious and tastes like home made Italian cuisine. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, while the service is timely and our servers were always attentive, whether we were outside or indoors. I highly recommend this spot to friends and will be back for another date night/special occasion!“

“i got the combo #2 platter tasted great enough for people“

“The only thing I would have changed was the spice level on my seafood boil. However, everything was absolutely delicious. I got Combo A and added sausage. It was so much food and the price was very reasonable. The boil actually fed me two times.“
