50 Best Seafood Restaurants near San Juan

“1st time here and I might say the food was good. Even though I didn't have the tradition of refried beans cuz I didn't pay attention to my order from the American side section. Hehe! That's on me : ) Great service. I'm definitely coming back here.“

“We had heard about this place that they have very good seafood and with my craving for fresh fried fish that I haven't been satisfied anywhere here in the mid-valley, so we stopped there and found out.... and boy did it satisfy it. Now I took off one star cuz the environment needs a little fixing. A lil facelift here and there and it will look classy to go wit the meals. Their presentation of the food was impressive.“

“This place never disappoints; have been coming here for over a decade. Had the mariscada for two which is a sizable amount, we ate 1/3 and still had 2/3 left to go which still hold the same flavor for the next days. Recommend to eat the fresh vegetables 1st as they don’t hold well after. Everything was delicious. @memerios1020“

“Great food and their service is awesome.“

“If you want friendly atmosphere with the most authentic Mexican seafood come see Uriel and Javier at the bar for one of the best experiences for out of towners in the city. Food is grade A, (order grilled too on the Red Snapper)“

“Had such a great experience at this location! Our waiter Eduardo was extremely attentive and welcoming, will definitely be coming back again 😄“

“We ordered the McAllen Special it was very good!“

“Ok. So we went to Red Lobster to try their new seafood boil bag. We've been loyal Mr Crabbys seafood boil bag customers for 5 years. Finding really great seafood outside of NH is hard. So hard..... Until now. The RL boil bag is far superior. Here's why: 1. The seasoning is just right. Choice of garlic & butter or Cajun. Got the Cajun- because that's the only seasoning in a proper boil bag that's acceptable. 1a. The seasoning is far better as it's not drowning in oil- causing constant crab splatters. 1b. The seasoning does not overpower the taste of the seafood like Mr Crabbys does. You can actually taste the lobster- shrimp and crab. 2. The bag comes with 6 more shrimp (12 total) than Mr Crabbys 6. The lobster tail is split fully in half rather than just slashed down the top spine- making it difficult at Mr Crabbys to pull the meat out in one swipe. (That's what she said) 3. The bag does NOT come with sausage if you order the Mariners Bag. However it can be added. Here's the closer- it's REAL Andouille sausage- not kielbasa. Me Crabbys has been using kielbasa the last few times we went. If you know the difference in flavor- you'll understand why this matters. 4. I wore my bib cuz I'm accustomed to having the food drip all over me as I crack and work for my reward. It was not needed. Even with dumping the bag into the tray- it was not over saturated in oil- but rather delicately seasoned with butter. Over all- we have a new Sunday Boil Bag date location. I never thought I'd stray from Mr Crabbys- but shockingly- Red Lobster has become the affair worth having. They did good with hiring this new CEO who brought this brain child to my beloved Maine lobster Locale here in the Deep South. If yall see this- please- from this coastal New England girl trying to get a nut in the RGV.....don't ever drop this from the menu. Sincerely Your newest fan.“

“First timers, came in from Sullivan City to celebrate siblings birthdays. We loved the food, ambiance music (not too loud), service was perfect. Two of us ordered micheladas that were great, others orders aguas Fresca. We definitely would return.“

“Excellent dishes, delicious and careful attention“

“I have to say, this place has some of the BEST seafood we’ve had in the Valley! I ordered the shrimp tacos, and hands down they are the best I’ve ever tried—fresh, flavorful, and perfectly made. We also had the fried tilapia, and it completely stood out compared to other places. Most restaurants serve tilapia that tastes oily or like burnt oil, but here it was fried perfectly—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and absolutely delicious without any burnt taste.

I also ordered a tostada, and it was so good that I ate it before I even remembered to take a picture! That says everything about how tasty it was.

Overall, the food here is fresh, clean, and packed with flavor. If you’re in San Carlos or nearby, you HAVE to stop by Mariscos Los Dos Carnales—you won’t regret it!“
