20 Best Seafood Restaurants in Arlington

“Recommended, did not disappoint, had the Po Boy, very filling, parking can be a challenge, but overall, worth the travel.“

“I had the crab cake appetizer which comes with a small salad on the same plate. Crab cake was delicious, but you didn't get asked what salad dressing you wanted and the one on it i didn't like. Crab cake was delicious. Wouldn't go if you are in a hurry staff us slow for an airport restaurant and employees are on their phones instead of waiting on people. Lunch was pretty pricey $30.00 without tip for appetizer.“

“Great service, good food, nice patio, bar & inside spaces“

“Food is fresh and hot. The Seafood here is amazing, but they do offer Non-Seafood items as well. The portion size is great. It’s worth the prices. Delicious.“

“Man after having a bite of my friend's roll i had to find this place while in DC. And when I did it definitely didn't disappoint. Best lobster rolls I've ever tested (only 2 others to compare😆)Rolls are super soft and butter is scrumptious. The blt roll was smackin“

“Food was excellent as was the service. Noise level a little high since there was two large parties and very loud. Made it hard to have a conversation at at two person table. Need to put in some sound abatement panels versus the hard wood current there.“

“This site is my preferable restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this restaurant. when I I need a good lunchon, this restaurant comes instantly to my mind. excellent and food and a rich cuisine.great staff members, and great spirit. And very important, the cost is honest. I sent my friends to this spot with pleasure.“

“I ordered the smothered pork chop and catfish meal's. This was my first time ordering from this restaurant and I'm not gonna lie, I was very skeptical when I saw there was a soul food restaurant on this side of the DMV area. Most often when I see a place selling soul food in this area, my expectations are low and my disappointment is high. However, when I talked to the gentleman behind the counter while he poured a bowl of butter over the candy yams, I thought this place might have a chance. And, Lord have mercy, I was right to give this place a chance. I was not disappointed at all. It was everything soul food is supposed to be: seasoned, flavorful and unhealthy if you have high cholesterol, or blood pressure.

I WILL be back!!“

“This restaurant was great and the broth was super flavorful. I got the spicy broth and the flavor was delicious enough to eat on its own. The ordering online was a cool concept. Good value for what you pay. I liked the buffet of veggies and seafood, but my only complaint is that I wish the items were labeled and that each had a utensil.“

“It is a very good place, excellent food, the girl who served us 10/10, her attention was very good, the prices were fair. The only recommendation is the volume level of the music, it would be much better if a prudent volume is used to be able to talk and share with the people we have at our table. Thanks ?“

“Terrific location in Crystal City. The interior is very inviting, quiet and ample seating. Our waitress Vlada was amazing: super-attentive, pleasant, and didn't miss a beat. The food was delightful, well-flavored, and the plating was gorgeous. The mahi-mahi was terrific, so was the pork chop. The appetizers were also nice and the cocktails were excellent. Highly recommend!“

“Fabulous staff, delicious food, spot on cocktails (amazing negronis) not to mention wine special.“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“

“Cool music on a Sat night!!!“

“The dinner was only "marred" by the entre trying to be serviced while we were still eating our appetizer. We could not believe that a restaurant of this quality would allow a service to bring out the main course while we were only half way through the appetizer. What does this mean? Well, in the states, it seems as though they are always trying to rush you through the meal to get the table free, but this restaurant does not have waiting lines like bonefish grill or those other type restaurants.“

“Had a great experience here! Nice atmosphere and a great cocktail menu. The chef came and talked to us about their special cherry blossom festival themed deserts, which were delicious. Julio was our waiter and did a great job! Definitely recommend. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“food was excellent, staff was accommodating and very friendly, definitely going back#“
