50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Jenkintown

“Been there 3 times to get takeout, so time to review. Short version: great food, nice staff, clean facility, and honestly a real bargain for what you get.

The food is always ready when I arrive. It's easy to get in and get out of The Fairway. The takeout bowls are hilariously overkill, you can use them to take your lunch to work they are so robust. No leaking in the takeout bag. The quality of the ingredients is very good. Never fishy, clean taste, good balance of textures in their dishes.

If you are reading this you are looking for a good place for sushi in the Abington/Jenkintown area. Down the shopping center is Whole Foods. Zushi's sushi is better, you get more, and it's better priced. Try it here instead, and support a local small business.

Pictured is a bento box from Sushi. It was very good, particularly the crab salad. Recommended.“

“Consistently excellent food and service“

“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!“

“We were celebrating obtaining our marriage license and had a wonderful server by the name of Alex who really made the night memorable. Food was delicious. happy we celebrated there.“

“Thank you to all tonight! We were celebrating the impending birth of our grandson with his other grandfather! Our children are 1st time parents!!

Thank you all again. 3 excited grandparents!“

“The best seafood ever, I’ve never had a bad meal honestly, my husband and I love it, this was always a great place to go for a nice quiet dinner, so disappointed that they did away with their indoor dining, their service was so good and so was their wait staff they were the best.“

“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!“

“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!!!“

“Celebrated my son’s 21st Birthday here with about 30 of his friends and family. We had a big section of the deck to ourselves. They had plenty of different options to fit our needs. We had a great time, everyone raved how good the food was and our server kept the drinks coming! It was a perfect way to celebrate!“

“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 staff was absolutely lovely from the hostess to the server. The atmosphere was intimate, the decor throughout was very cool. The menu is very fairly priced and the food was incredible. I brought a friend here last night that was visiting from out of town, she can be a hard critic but she left happy. Thank you for such a wonderful experience! I will be back!“

“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!“

“WOW. I don't know what I just ate because it feels like the first time that I've eaten actual food. How is this place so good? Literally the food tastes like they just harvested all of it immediately before prepping. Literally blown away. This will probably be my #1 food place in Philly for years with zero close competition. I am seriously in awe of how good my first meal there just was. To the owners, please don't change, it's incredible. If you keep your prices this low too I'll probably eat there like 5+ times a week, no joke. Incredible. Bravo. Seriously.“

“These are the best damn shrimp that’s Been around for a long time take our own cash only but I’ll tell you best shrimp if you like breaded shrimp these are beyond love this place anytime I’m down near this neighborhood. I have to stop and eat them take out and cash remember“

“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.“

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

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

“Friendly, attentive, knowledgeable staff. Great fresh vegetarian options with delicious tomato broth. Good vibes and music. Clean bathrooms.“

“Fresh and delicious food! First time visiting and will be back very soon. Order anything Chargrilled on the menu and be happy!“

“Outstanding service and food at the bar! Waitress working the bar area was solo and killed it! Always a go to!!“

“No matter what, this is my tried and true fresh fried fish spot!! Their food still hits now as it did in 2010. The only reason I did not give all stars was because I did not get to get a bag of fresh fish to take home and cook. The inside is small and there is standing room only. I hope they bring back the fresh fish. There may be a lot going on outside as well, but I go there for my fish and head straight home to eat. There is street kiosk parking. It's best to call ahead. However, the phone line seems to ring busy now a days.“

“We love sharks! wing nights snd daily specials! Always top notch service“

“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.“

“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“

“Best meal I have had….maybe ever!“

“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!“

“Good Service and food too.“

“Corner lot, limited parking. Seating for 4 or 6 at the tables available. To go was easy to order and seems like they do a lot of door dash from the location. Food was hot after the drive home and seasonings are great, went with the medium selection for the boil. Very friendly staff.“

“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“

“We hosted our daughter Ryann's 21st birthday party at Fireside, and it was a huge success! With around 30 family and friends in attendance, the staff made sure everything went perfectly. Michelle made the planning process a breeze, handling all the details and ensuring our celebration was exactly what we envisioned. On the afternoon of the party, Kerrie was a true star behind a very busy bar. She kept the drinks flowing all afternoon and did it all with a smile. Sherry was incredibly attentive to our group's every need, quickly and cheerfully fulfilling every request we had. And the food was outstanding! Our guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious dishes prepared by Al. The entire Fireside team truly went above and beyond to give Ryann a fantastic 21st birthday celebration. We're so grateful to everyone who helped make it such a memorable day!!“

“We had an amazing private there on Sunday with 60 people! They were accommodating, flexible and easy to work with. The food was delish!!!“

“Great food, cozy atmosphere. Food is brought to the table in authentic dishes, which enhances the experience. My family gets ramen, never a disappointment. The sushi is so beautifully cut and made with the best ingredients. I have a gluten issues, their gluten-free temperature is the best, so crispy, not greasy, and perfectly cooked. Umami is a perfect blend in everything we have eaten.“

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