50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Jenkintown

“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!“

“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.“

“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.“

“I absolutely enjoyed the hot pot here. They had a variety of meats, veggies, and seafood. Everything here is fresh, I can certainly say you get a lot for what you pay for here. The servers here are friendly and very welcoming. There is a lot of space inside the restaurant, it gives a traditional atmosphere.“

“Cannot recommend this place enough!!! Absolutely outstanding food & quality. I’m a huge fan of Po Boy sandwiches and had been struggling to find any in the area, found Crab De Jour Pennsauken on Door Dash & saw they had them.

Decided to give them a shot, got the cat fish one & the flounder one, I had always wanted to try catfish so I figured this was a good time to do it.

Both sandwiches were perfect, like actually perfect. The catfish one was easily my favorite of the two & now am a big fan of catfish. Flounder was solid , will be trying the shrimp one & oyster one next!

Their Cocktail sauce was delicious and had a great texture, the fries ( I got both Cajun & sweet potato ) were borderline addicting , perfectly cooked & seasoning was top tier.

Overall I have nothing but great things to say about this place, I’ve ordered 3 days in a row this week. Service & Food was outstanding , I’ve only had them via delivery but I can tell you this location and staff are amazing & they earned a lifelong customer with me.

5 stars across the board , if you’re on the fence of trying them or looking for great food at a very good value I hope this review convinces you to give them a shot.

Shout out to the staff & the manager !“

“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!!!“

“Lee and Kim are the absolute best people. They are kind, courteous and polite always. They work their butts off for their family and business. Just wish they didn't have to put that bulletproof glass up, that's just a shame. Safety first tho!“

“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“

“I come all the way from Jersey for this seafood!!! I absolutely love it!! U can tell the food is made with love ❤️ The people are very welcoming and pleasant every time I go there!! I even got a birthday toast!!! I definitely recommend💯 The seafood salad is top tier🤌🏾“

“Great Food & Great Staff!!“

“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.“

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

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

“I enjoyed my burger and my beignets. I highly recommend this place.“

“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“

“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“

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

“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“

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

“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.“

“Absolutely delicious chicken shnitzel wrap! The ingredients were fresh and plentiful and left me completely satisfied. I'm glad there is really great Mediterranean food so close to home & I know I will definitely be ordering again soon!“

“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!“

“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!“

“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!!“

“Best meal I have had….maybe ever!“

“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.“

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

“Great experience all you can eat“

“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“

“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!“

“Asian Fresh Kitchen is my new go to for delicious food! Just made my first order yesterday & everything was delicious!“

“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.“

“Me & my girlfriends came here 4 a few drinks, We did order some food, All there food R very good, I had a Fish Whitting Platter wth String Beans, & Mac & Cheese, it was so delicious. My girlfriend had there Chicken with French Fries she said it was very good, It a nice chill spot, it dnt get crowded @ all.....I will definitely be back to buy there food here, They sell SeaFood here to.“
