50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Glenside

“This place is a hidden gem. The atmosphere made me feel like I was at home. There were a group of patrons at the bar who spoke to us when we entered letting me know this was neighborhood and friendly place. Carrie the bartender/waitress was absolutely amazing. The menu had an array of different seafood dishes. I got a large size of crab legs that were so fresh, my husband got the crab bites, fried fish, and carrot cake also absolutely delicious. The price was very affordable with our order and drinks and a couple of take out items that we wanted to take home to try that definitely makes this place a return visit. Even if not to eat but to enjoy happy hour with the friendly people of the 152.“

“Tried a few dishes here and overall it was a decent experience with some clear hits and misses.

We probably overordered, but that also showed the portions are generous and the value for money is actually pretty good.

We started with the salad, which was fresh and well-prepared—simple but good.

The seafood bisque was enjoyable, though it leaned heavily toward fish and lacked a mix of other seafood, which would’ve made it more interesting. The seafood soup, on the other hand, was just okay—it definitely needed more depth and seasoning.

For appetizers, the fried shrimp and fried calamari were both decent, nothing special, but the dipping sauce with the calamari stood out and elevated the dish a bit.

The grilled octopus was a miss—it lacked flavor and tasted like it had been previously frozen, which took away from the texture and overall experience.

For mains, the Singari sea bass was solid—the fish tasted fresh and was cooked well overall.

The clear winner, though, was the butterfly shrimp. It was buttery, perfectly grilled, and packed with flavor—easily the standout dish of the meal.

Overall, a mixed experience but worth it for the butterfly shrimp alone.“

“They have absolutely amazing food!!! Excellent service. Unbelievable portions. I will go back again & again!“

“Good Service and food too.“

“First time customer Monday afternoon for Christmas lunch. Food was excellent and bartender Tracy was amazing! She ran the bar and dining room by herself. No wait and a warm and bubbly personality. We all loved her and will be back on Mondays. Great place“

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

“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!!!“

“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.“

“Was having a girls kn with friends. Let me tell you i am a Florida girl. So i value excellent service and seafood. I bought the 1 cluster and mussels. As you can see by the video it came with plenty. The owners were nice and made the purchase enjoyable. Will be back.“

“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.“

“My boyfriend and I wanted to try something new in the Northern Liberty area as we frequent the area quite a bit, and decided to give Yanaga a try. After just one dine in experience, it's become one of our new favorite spots to eat, and it's definitely on the restaurant rotation for when we go out to eat!

The place is very decked out with anime stickers, manga panels, and the like, while also playing different kinds of anime on the TVs they have on premise. I really recommend the spot, for just the food alone even if you don't like anime.“

“Great Food & Great Staff!!“

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

“Nice little spot, with nice energy. It can be a little tight inside, but given the shape of the building, it's to be expected. Though some people say the portions are small, I felt they were adequate and not dissimilar to say Bastia. I'm not a huge oyster person, but the recommendations were very good, especially paired with the zhug. Everyone we interacted with was lovely, but we were especially appreciative of Jordan, who gave us the majority of our recommendations.

We ate:
- psychedelicate
- stony shore
- bad boys
- broccolini caesar
- yellowtail pastrami
- crispy butterflied trout
- baby back ribs“

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

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

“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.“

“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 ❤️🥂💍“

“good food and friendly atmosphere“

“Once you get over the area you are in for some great food. This place brought back childhood memories how good everything was on the menu. The fried chicken wings are delicious but not like the Chinese store wing its way better. Fried fish amazing no matter what type. I order 10 items for a family taste test and not one item was disliked by my family or myself. Can’t go wrong, you just have to order before 2:30 because when they sell out they close.“

“Excellent experience 10/10.“

“Great hidden gem in Fishtown✨

Everything was fantastic to the apps, the ambiance, and even our server!

🍝 Food: We loved all the apps, and honestly for us we’d just get all apps if we could. The winter special monkfish was ok. And it was cool to try a new pasta “shape” for us: storzapretti e.g. look like meatballs, but are herby delicious ricotta balls with a snap. We loved the orata fish dish. WOW, perfectly cooked fish! For about $100 pp, we essentially got an XL 8-course tasting menu which is pretty worth it!

what we got:
⭐️ scallop focaccia toast 5/5 WOW! impressed, the flavor, the texture. more than just a fish-on-toast
⭐️ shaved artichoke 5/5 acidic goodness
⭐️ skate cheeks 4/5 great texture! flavor combo was amazing with the calabrian chili and polenta
⭐️ grilled orata 4/5 perfectly cooked with the buttery meat and crispy skin, tapenade was fire!
- tagliolini monkfish 3/5 not a fan gritty pieces in the pasta, monkfish felt a bit overcooked and tough
- storzapretti ricotta dumplings 3/5 glad to try something new!! not our thing

🍴 service: amazing! our server was attentive, helpful and sassy — we liked her. overall staff was great too, they brought the dishes and explained them and between courses they took plates and cleaned the table. very pleasurable :)

🕯️ atmosphere: the ambiance was intimate and sexy! there was not a bad angle of the interior — it was a classy date night spot“

“Definitely will be coming back. I got the lamb gyro. It was packed with tender, fresh lamb and the spicy sauce was the perfect heat.“

“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!“

“The freshest selection So tasty Made quickly but custom right in front of you So good“

“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.“

“Food was great, while the service was not. the waitress we had was absolutely horrible. Hardly came to the table to see if we needed anything. Two guests had snow crab, I had to ask for a cracker so they could open up the crabs. Extra napkins and ketchup nope had to look for them ourselves. At least the food and my company was great. And to top this all off, a 15% was on the bill as for a tip, needless to say she was not worth it.“
