50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Prospect Park

“Their food is amazing!! We order from them many times!! We have tried everything on their menu! Must try for anyone that hasn’t ordered from them!! Right off 420 “Lincoln Ave” in Prospect Park Pa! And plenty of parking in their shared parking lot.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Finally, my husband was able to get a reservation at SAO! It’s honestly crazy how fast spots disappear, gone within seconds.

We’ve been fans since their time at Mawn, so we had high expectations for this new spot, and it did not disappoint. As someone who is Cambodian and grew up in Cambodia for half my life, I can confidently say Chef Phila and his team really delivered.

Everything we ordered was delicious, but the spicy crab gravy noodles were our favorite, packed with bold flavor and real crab meat. A must-order! Every dish was cooked perfectly, and I loved how rich and flavorful everything was.

The space is a bit small, though. I’d love to see them expand so more people can experience Cambodian cuisine.

The staff were super friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. Overall, it definitely lives up to the hype. Highly recommend if you want to try Cambodian food. This place truly hits the spot!“

“Came here with my wife, and after we agreed Illata is one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Philadelphia. The food was creative, seasonal, fresh; the staff friendly and personal; and the intimate yet casual atmosphere made it feel like we were having an exclusive dinner-for-two. Highly recommend!“

“Delicious food, beautiful scenery, very friendly staff.“

“Fresh seafood, all of it is amazing 5 ⭐️“

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

“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.“

“The service and food was great. 🤗“

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

“Great menu, nice bar scene!“

“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.“

“This was our first time and we loved it!! My daughter had been prior and suggested Sedona! Very good food and great service from Danielle!! Nachos, stuffed jalapeño’s for starters and just delicious!!!! I had the shrimp and grits which were amazing!! It came with the smallest bottle of Tobassco and my wife said…thank you!!!🤷🏾 my ladies loved their dishes and it was a nice time at dinner!! Didn’t wait long for a seat which is always a plus! It’s a large space which also has outside seating!! When I got home I sent those shrimp right back to the Bayou which was a good thing…it made room for two apple cider donuts from Linvilla!!! Will def go back!!!!“

“Excellent customer service and safety precautions in place.“

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

“We went for Valentine's Day. The food was delicious. I got the surf and turf and everything was cooked perfectly. Service was awesome - the hostess, servers and busboys were great. I'm so glad we went last night. Thank you !“

“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.“

“Love their seafood boils“

“Ms. Crab is a hidden gem in Sharon Hill! The food was amazing, super fresh and flavorful. The staff were really friendly and the service was great. The space is small, but it’s been thoughtfully decorated warm lighting, comfortable seating, and nice touches around the dining area give it a cozy yet stylish vibe. You can tell they’ve put care into making the place inviting.“

“Holy moly, this is a true hidden gem. The food was outstanding. A great menu and even better execution. I didn’t take pictures of everything but they wouldn’t do the food justice anyway. The pork chop was one of the best I’ve ever had. If you like pork chops like me you know that a juicy, tender, flavorful pork chop is the holy grail and this chef pulled it off. Everything we had was excellent. I’ll admit, I don’t like pumpkin but I tried my wife’s pumpkin risotto and I may be a convert. It’s amazing what a perfectly cooked pumpkin risotto can do. I can’t wait to come back to Philly and eat here again.

Drinks were also great and the bartender was a seasoned pro. Service all around was easy going and servers were just really nice people.

Run! Don’t know walk…“

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

“I came here to eat with my girlfriend, and we also ordered takeout a different day. We both agreed this is the best sushi we had so far here in the city. Lived here for 5 years, and the sushi and sashimi here are great and taste fresh. The takoyaki unfortunately was very cold when we got it, but I understand it's takeout and would be better in the restaurant. Definitely give this place a try.“

“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!!!“

“1)wonderful food and a goodly portion.2) BYOB 3)Not cheap but reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. Hits the Restaurant Trifecta!!!“

“Wick's is awesome! Their staff is always super friendly! I always bring coolers of food from Wicks with me to the Outer Banks when I vacation there for a week in a house rental. Wick's has almost every product available; from burgers, hot dogs, french fries, onion rings, chicken fingers (homemade right there on site), all things seafood, chicken patties, roast beef and gravy and mac and cheese right in the aluminum pans to cook them in, vegetables, almost everything imaginable. I highly recommend this place of business.“

“Omg I was so hungry so I said I would give it a try i know that Pam use to cater for us at Kimberly Clarke.. I had the fish and Chicken wings ate myself silly..her staff Ms Fatine love her was so glad too see her. Omg if you haven't you need too get there, the best I mean the best.

“My first time having their food which came highly recommended from a picky foodie, like myself! We did takeout which was fast and the young lady was extremely nice. The vegetable rice, sweet chili wings and shrimp rolls were delectable! Not one complaint! I will definitely be back!“

“I have been going there for years in the food is always very good....“

“Hello everyone! I just finished another order from my new favorite seafood spot, and l had to share my experience with you all. This was my second time ordering from here, and I couldn't resist getting the exact same dish again - it's just that good!
Everything about this place is amazing: it's incredibly clean, super organized, and the food? Absolutely delicious. The flavors are truly unforgettable, making it one of my top choices for seafood right now.
What really sets this restaurant apart, though, is the palpable passion. You can tellit's not just about running a business; it's about a genuine love for what they do. The owner pours so much heart and care into everything, and you can taste it in every bite, from the exquisite presentation of the dishes to the incredible flavor. It's clear that every plate is made with immense dedication and love!“

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

“good food and friendly atmosphere“

“Crabs are great, love the DJ music Lol , will be back for more crabs“

“Excellent chicken shnitzel wraps!“

“Here’s a cleaned-up, polished version that keeps your voice and reads smoothly for a review:

Please don’t let the outdated atmosphere keep you from experiencing this place. The service was terrific, and the food was even better. I ordered the fish hoagie and could only eat half; there were at least four pieces of fish on it, plus a side of potato salad. The potato salad wasn’t the best, but it wasn’t bad either.

My husband had the fried shrimp platter with six shrimp, coleslaw, and fries. He said it was delicious and only struggled to finish because the portion was so generous. Overall, I’m honestly upset it took me so long to try this spot. I drive by it at least three times a week!

If you want it shorter, more casual, or more enthusiastic, I can tweak the tone in one pass.“

“Very good, nice service, comfortable room“

“We had our daughter’s bridal shower there last weekend , the Wait Staff and Food were AMAZING !!!! We highly recommend for all your special occasions !!!!!“

“Wonderful food and service was amazing. Our servers Linda and Brenda were awesome. Will definitely be back. It’s our third time here!!“

“S & J Seafood is a delightful seafood haven tucked away in the vibrant heart of Philadelphia. This unassuming gem has become a local favorite.

The staff at S & J Seafood is like family—they know your name, your order, and they greet you with a smile. And let’s talk about value: generous portions of good-tasting food that won’t break the bank. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or indulging in a seafood feast, S & J Seafood is where flavor meets community.“

“I’m an avid crab connoisseur, and I was introduced to Frank’s by Madonna and Kelli. The crabs were meaty, flavorful, and surprisingly clean, with very little sand—especially impressive for this time of year. Definitely a great experience. I'll be back:)“

“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 ❤️🥂💍“

“It's your average Hood Deli. Breaded chicken wings are to die for. No thrills, but always FRESH. Mother and Father own and run the business. Both can be a little brash but overall it's a good place to get a quick bite that isn't expensive. Never ever have to worry about the food not being fresh either.“

“Great food super service and spotless clean“

“Stopped in on night 2 of rebrand to their new concept. Burger, chicken cutlet sandwiches and boozy (and regular) milkshakes. Had a great meal and chatting with the staff. Was thrilled to see a lot of customers. My fav was the South Philly cutlet sammy but all were great.“
