50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Dallas

“We walked in to pick up a to go order and were warmly greeted. The server was kind to share some of the restaurant history and asked for a review, which as business owners, we like to oblige and want to help other businesses. He threw in a mango lassi with our order, which was not expected and SO delicious. All of our food was AMAZING and enough to have for lunch the next day. We ordered garlic naan, Gobi 65, Malabar with beef and veggies, chicken and lamb biryani.“

“💯 recomendado un servicio, excelente la comida deliciosa, un trato excelente“

“What an incredible night out! Every dish was full of flavor, from the rich crab and corn chowder to the seasonal seafood chowder. The Lobster Thermidor was absolutely unforgettable and easily one of the best meals I’ve had. The scallops were tender, perfectly cooked, and delicious. To finish, the bourbon chocolate bread pudding was the perfect sweet treat. Combined with amazing service and a wonderful atmosphere, this was an experience I’ll definitely remember.“

“Truluck’s Dallas absolutely exceeded expectations from beginning to end. We chose Truluck’s to celebrate Chocolate’s 45th birthday, and the entire experience felt special, thoughtful, and top-tier.

We started in the bar, and Riley was amazing. The service was warm, attentive, and set the tone for the evening. The appetizers were excellent — the crab cake was outstanding, and the Hot & Crunchy dinner was absolutely delicious.

After that, we moved upstairs and were seated by the window, which gave us an amazing view and made the celebration feel even more special. Shelby took care of us upstairs and was phenomenal — attentive, personable, and on point the entire evening. Crystal also stopped by to check on us and make sure everything was going well, which added such a personal touch.

And just when we thought the experience couldn’t get any better, I just received a voicemail from Maggie for a follow-up call. That level of customer care and intentionality is rare and truly speaks to the standard of excellence at Truluck’s.

From the food, to the ambiance, to the service before, during, and even after our visit — WOW. Truluck’s made Chocolate’s 45th birthday celebration memorable, and I will absolutely be“

“We celebrated our anniversary at YO Steakhouse in Dallas and had such a great experience. Marcos Ruiz took really good care of us and recommended the Texas Hill Country Quail Medallion and the Burrata Tomato salad with a vinaigrette reduction—both were super fresh and full of flavor. Super delicious. For dinner, we had steak with bone marrow butter and salmon with rich sun-dried tomato, roasted garlic & cilantro butter, both cooked perfectly. You can really tell the food is made fresh to order, and the quality shines in every bite—the tx asparagus, potatoes, and wild rice were out of this world as well. Marcos also surprised us with a special dessert design for our anniversary, which made the night feel even more special. Overall, the chef did an amazing job, as did Marcos, whom we requested in advance, and served us with so much enthusiasm and care that made our night, and the whole experience felt thoughtful and memorable.“

“Came here with my younger son and my daughter to celebrate her birthday, Sept. 22. Beautiful space and decor. The service was excellent and the food was delectable! Great suggestions from our waiter. We started with the burrata and then we shared the Mafalde, the Prime Hanger, and Swordfish. I highly recommend this beautiful restaurant.“

“Absolutely the best restaurant in North Dallas. If you want the best atmosphere paired with truly amazing food, come here. It's worth the wait.“

“Everything here is delicious. Everything. Fair prices too.
The young lady at the front has AMAZING customer service. She remembers the customers and is very welcoming. I love how it’s not a wait on you kind of restaurant but they do rounds to check on you. It is family owned so I try to support it whenever I can.
They have a little bit of everything for everyone. From fish to burgers to grilled and fried. Philly cheesesteaks and menudo. Can’t go wrong.
The restaurant is clean which is a major plus for me. They really care about their customers and will make it right if needed. Try them out and you’ll see for yourself.“

“What an impeccable experience. Service is exactly what you want, and the food was delicious. Oyster nachos were very tasty. I absolutely loved the key lime pie.

The GM gave the history of this location. A few years back, there was a terrible tornado that ripped through the location, but the history of rebuilding the location and the symbolic life jackets on the wall of the 12 survivors who were in the location when the tornado hit.

Honestly, this is what gives a place true character, and I'm sure this place will live on to tell more phenomenal stories. Cheers to these amazing people running this place. A true testament to honest and great hospitality.“

“We had an amazing late lunch there on a Sunday afternoon. Simon, our waiter was fantastic!! He was fun to talk to and really spent time getting to know us. His recommendations for food were on point and he brought us a delicious piece of cheesecake on the house. 5 stars for sure!!!!“

“What a find!! Prices were reasonable and the quality of food was awesome. We will be back. I’d rate it a 5“

“Today you guys really helped me out when my car broke down!! I appreciate you letting me and my baby wait while our car got fixed! Very, very nice people!! Thank you again!“

“I enjoy their customer service and their variety of different foods!“

“Between the food and drinks — always a fantastic time. The back bar and courtyard are clutch.“

“Very impressive for an airport restaurant. Generally speaking, food and service are similar to their regular restaurant locations which seems to never be the case with airport restaurants. They have gone out of their way to keep a solid menu and a full bar as well as the feel of a restaurant that is a luxurious escape from the hustle and bustle upstairs. Highly recommended.“

“Celebrated my National Certification in Hospice here“

“We couldn't have picked a better place for dinner. The evening was wonderful, and the food made it even more enjoyable. I ordered the salmon, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor, while my date loved the filet. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Everything came together for a great dining experience, and we'll definitely be returning before long.“

“Excellent food , prices and service with a smile. America, the night manager makes sure everything is cooked to perfection. Kevin, our waiter makes sure my diet restrictions are observed and that we have everything we need for a great meal. We eat here 2-3 times a week. It’s that good!“

“La Calle Doce is a gem! We went for Friday lunch and loved everything—the cozy, beautifully maintained old house, peaceful vibe, and excellent service. I had the lunch special with fish soup and a ceviche tostada, and my husband had the salmon salad. Both were incredible, and the spicy ranch waters were a fun bonus. Some of the best food I’ve had in Dallas—can’t wait to go back!“

“Great service, delicious food“

“Today, I had the crab cakes, Parmesan crusted flounder, and the bread pudding for dessert. Everything was very good !“

“Today I had the best experience. I love coming to eat here. The Food is always good the customer service is very good. Today I had two encounters with Jarad and the Manager Desmond who made sure me and my family was well taken care of. Today was very busy when I came in but was greeted right away, there was a small wait time but once I was seated everything came out right away. The food was fresh and Hot. Desmond came over to my table to see how my visit was and I let him know great as usual. Please if you go to this location ask for Jarad and Desmond.“

“We had a spectacular dinner celebrating my son’s birthday, the food was so fresh and delicious; and our server Debbie was so gracious and attentive. Will definitely come again!“

“We had not been to Half Shells in a while and man, have we missed out. Under new ownership, the interior has been upgraded and the food, was simply amazing. First, my buddy ordered a martini and it was exceptional. Big cold glass expertly executed. We had the fried calamari that came with two sauces - an aioli and a sweet and sour sauce, which was really nice.

We also had smoked salmon on toast which was heavenly and then I had a special - Copper River Salmon glazed with mango chutney over sticky rice and green beans. It was amazing! It's always been a great neighborhood restaurant but now it's truly a foodie gem!“

“Consistent quality, great service, beautiful atmosphere, and fantastic wine list!“

“Their food is always fresh, flavorful, and outstanding!!!“

“What a great experience. Highly recommend the red snapper, crab and shrimp plate with broccolini. The turtle fudge brownie was great.
Could serve some expresso, rather than standard coffee, but Ill let it slide because Im euphorically happy and nearly in a food coma from dinner right now ;)“

“We had a fantastic experience here. The service was outstanding, with a friendly and attentive team that made us feel welcomed throughout the evening. The food was delicious, and the crab cakes were our favorite appetizer. Everything was well prepared and added to a memorable visit. This is a great restaurant for celebrations, date nights, or anyone wanting a special dining experience. Highly recommend giving it a try.“

“We love this location! Great service every time. Delicious food & amazing cocktails. We bring the kiddos too and they are so good and understanding with them“

“I am indeed a foodie and very picky about restaurants in the DFW area. However, Chef Gorji met my high standards with foods that were amazingly prepared. You can't go wrong with whatever you order but the Sea Bass and Vegetarian Lasagna had me wanting more. The grill vegetables were so well prepared I was left shocked by the seasoning he used. He is also a very humble and kind man and that is an extra bonus. If you want good food in Dallas look no further go to Gorji Restaurant and enjoy good food. Dr. Lisa“

“This place exceeded expectations on every level. Atmosphere was cozy for date night dinner before my wife and I went to see Nate Bargatze. The Food at all ends were alive with flavor kicking. The service was attentive and caring, just excellent. We started with The spinach artichoke dip. amazing, the chips (I believe their famous Italian nacho chips and homemade Garlic bread slices came together like a flavor family. My wife ordered the Primavera with chicken and the cream Parmesan sauce. out worldly, amazing. I would eat that sauce on everything. I ordered the Spicy Chicken Penne. A wonderful fusion of Sharp sundried tomatoes, sauteed Garlic cloves sauce and chicken. the spice was excellent as well, not overpowering like the star of the show, but rather a supporting actor that let you know they were there. The portions were very generous. don't expect to finish your entire dish, we went hungry and left with 1/3 of each of our entrees. I would recommend this place to anyone in Dallas, or going to Dallas..I would even recommend to the owners to venture down to Houston, as we could use this in our city. You would be missing out if you didn't come through this place at least once.“

“Always terrific! One of my favorite Dallas restaurants.“

“Fish Tacos and rice and beans“

“All of your meals are absolutely fantastic! They are also reasonably priced. The staff truly do care about each meal that they make“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ziziki’s totally blew me away! The Avgolemono Soup with chicken was super comforting and full of flavor. I also had the Greek salad, and wow—their Greek dressing might be the best I’ve ever tasted. Seriously addictive. The Chicken Souvlaki was tender, perfectly seasoned, and just delicious all around. Everything was fresh and so tasty. Highly recommend, and I’ll definitely be ordering again soon!“

“My best guy and I dined at TJ’s - what a terrific experience! Yes, the food was worthy of all awards received; equally impressive was Kirk, who offered insights into the extensive menu selections and ensured all orders were as promised. The fish tacos were sublime; here must be a better word. Bravo to TJ’s- where the delicious food and friendly, attentive staff create a a memorable night.“

“Best oysters ever in a great Dallas dive bar. Been going there for 40 years.“

“First timers tonight- compliments all around. Service/FoodLibations all absolutes on-point. Special shout out to our server Mark…definitely a true professional. Looking forward to a return in the near future!“
