50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Fairfax Station

“Comida exquisita ,, Me Encanto“

“Came here over the weekend while in the area for work and I'm so glad I did! My husband and I loved the food, especially the chocolate cake. Everyone we interacted with was so friendly, Ann/Anne was our server and did a fantastic job. She mentioned she was new, but you would never know it. Highly recommend!“

“We've dined at Patsy's American on several occasions and consistently appreciate the quality, service and atmosphere.“

“Wonderful food, the trout was amazing and so was the shrimp and crab fritter appetizer. Our waiter Matthew was seriously the best and sweetest waiter I’ve ever had in my life. We are here for vacation but we will without a doubt come back here the next time we are in the area.“

“ABSOLUTELY phenomenal. If you’re even thinking about trying Ned’s New England Deck, just go! You won’t regret it. The owner, Steve, is so personable and you can tell he genuinely cares about his business. He made an effort to talk to us (even our 4-year-old), which was really sweet and made the whole experience feel more personal. I also loved how he hyped up his staff, you can tell they’re appreciated. The food though… wow. The brown butter lobster roll was seriously amazing! The soft, flavorful bread and the lobster was so buttery and sweet. I’ve had lobster rolls before (even at the beach), and this one honestly beats them. The fried fish melts in your mouth and the truffle fries are addicting. My family and I left so impressed. The food was incredible, and Steve’s kindness just made it even better. He even shared how to make one of their sauces at home, which was such a nice gesture. So again, thank you Steve and staff for an amazing dinner & becoming our go-to seafood spot. We can’t wait to try more and checkout the playroom upstairs!“

“Amazing food and also gluten free options we had the crab guac, lobster tacos and Bouillabaisse. Chris the bartender made great margaritas and martinis. Highly recommend.“

“That Fresh salad is everything!! All in all, we love Mikes!!“

“Absolutely amazing experience! We reserved two tables - one for our 17 y/o son and his friends. He was celebrating his birthday and the second table for our party of 3. Tony delivered outstanding service to both tables and made the experience so memorable. The cocktails were delicious (the Maverick was quite yummy). The food was incredible. Highly recommend the wagyu dumplings, the lobster tacos and the ribeye!!! The manager came by and checked on both tables which is always a nice touch. They had small bday touches and the most amazing dessert to seal the deal. 10/10! Can't wait to go back. Ask for Tony!“

“We love the Capital Grille. It is such a and welcoming place, and the food is delicious. Best of all is the service. We always look forward to being served by Shayla. She is absolutely fabulous - so delightful and efficient, and she always makes our visits special.“

“Literally some of the best steak I’ve ever eaten in my life. And I’m very picky about my steaks“

“all you can eat seafood is delicious every time we go‼️‼️“

“A friend and I meet at Theisman's restaurant for lunch quite often. I live in Alexandria and she lives in Warrenton so it's a great middle point. We both love the food and the hostesses and waitstaff are excellent. The atmosphere is nice.. the reason I gave it 4 stars is that the music in there was so loud. We decided to sit on the porch thinking it would be quieter and it was such a beautiful day... unfortunately the music was extremely loud out there too and seemed to increase in volume as we were out there for about 2 hours. I noticed a few other people were saying that it was so loud too. We should have said something to the hostess but we had not seen each other in awhile. Wonderful place, but people do want to be able to talk and hear each other. Hopefully, this will get to the right ears ?“

“I want to take this opportunity to share our experience at your restaurant, Bonefish, on Friday, August 29. Our visit for lunch was a great success. Our group of 7 senior women were served by wait staff who were pleasant and patient as we gathered and took our time ordering their delicious salads. They had a nice selection of salad and soup. We all enjoyed our meals. We were also celebrating 2 birthdays. They offered the birthday girls a selection of deserts that were free for the two celebrants. We all sang Happy Birthday and even our waiter joined us We will certainly plan to visit again soon.in singing!“

“I love the food and great service!👍♥️“

“Mason’s Famous Lobster Rolls is a great addition to Falls Church. The restaurant looks brand new, very clean, and well maintained. The staff was welcoming, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable from the moment I walked in. The food was fresh and delicious, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. I’ll definitely be back and would recommend it to anyone looking for quality seafood in the area.“

“Our first visit to Cafe Renaissance and will not be our last. Wonderful staff, menu and food. The wine list is extensive and overall dining experience could not have been better; it was a super evening.“

“There is a sign on the door as you walk in that states “Best Breakfast in town” there has never been a more true statement. Well done Yorkshire!!!!!“

“The food was delicious, the tuna and the kebabs 🤤🤤 and the service was excellent, even the young woman with the tattooed arm, I think her name is Leslie, along with a couple of young men, Luis and Jett. I would definitely go back. Greetings from Tuxpan, Nayarit, Mexico“

“Exceptional Service. Culinary Excellence. Our dining experience at JOON was extraordinary, made even better by the exceptional service from our server, Yacine. His thoughtful recommendations, warm demeanor, and perfectly timed attentiveness made for an unforgettable evening. Even as the restaurant got busier, Yacine maintained his focus on us— a warm and welcoming touch that elevated the entire experience. Thank you! As fans of Persian cuisine and frequent shoppers at Yekta Market in Rockville— having recently tried our hand at making Persian dishes like Fesenjan at home— coupled with all of the culinary accolades— we had high expectations for JOON. It not only met but exceeded them. Mast-o Musir, yogurt dish with Persian dried shallot and rose petal, was exceptional— more elevated and nuanced than any we’ve had. The mushroom Khoresht stew with white truffle was another highlight, offering perfectly balanced flavors something hard to do with white truffles and a satisfying richness, complemented by the perfectly crunchy Tahdig, iconic golden rice crust. The braised lamb shoulder which Yacine suggested was the undeniable highlight of the meal I which each dish was excellent. Tender and flavorful, it was paired beautifully with texture. It’s a signature dish that rivals the best we’ve ever had, bringing to mind the legendary Bo Ssam pork shoulder from David Chang’s Momofuku— bold, unforgettable, and expertly prepared. The Gormeh Sabzi, short rib stew with its delicious sour depth, was excellent but couldn’t quite match the lamb’s showstopping brilliance. Two very minor points. While the food and service are exceptional, the main dining room lighting would benefit from dimming. A water filtration water system could make a big difference as well. JOON has firmly secured its place as a must-visit dining destination for us. We can’t wait to return and explore more of the menu.“

“the food, the service and the drinks are all amazing. loved the decor as well. it is pricey but very shareable. Matt K. was the best server. Made us laugh and had a blast.“

“We always love spending time with our friends at Capital Grille! Todd, Angela, Marco, May-Tai, Nicoah, Jose, Ernesto and the entire team are absolutely wonderful. Their warm hospitality, outstanding service, and attention to every detail make every visit feel special. Thank you all for consistently creating such an amazing dining experience, we always look forward to coming back!“

“Today is my birthday. My mom tried to order jumbo crabs, but it was right when they first opened, so door dash showed they didn’t have them, but Josie came to the rescue!! Thanks Josie, heavy MD jumbo“

“Small, but very clean and well kept.

There is no dining area however.

With that said, best beef fried rice I've ever had, and I've had alot trust me.

Ingredients were fresh and top notch. Fast service as well.

Very cheap all things considered.“

“Amazing food great atmosphere and they except reservations“

“When we stepped in the building I forgot my wallet and they told us it’s okay and that we could pay afterwards so we took their word and we had their motzerall sticks and bread and their bread was amazing idk what they did with it but it was amazing and all the staff were very helpful and kind“

“So happy to have Red’s within walking distance of my house. We recently took a group of friends there and were lucky to get the private room. Great food and service! Tried their oysters for the first time and they were really good.“

“I used to go to Dave's Seafood YEARS ago when it was in Manassas and when I found out that they were in Chantilly I still drive out there just for the fried catfish. I love that it's fried hard (I hate limp fried fish) and the cornmeal gives the batter a good crunch that's not too much.
The hushpuppies are also very good. They're the kind that have corn inside, not just batter.
I also enjoy the cheesesteaks (I get mine with jumbo sauce), fried shrimp, and grilled ham and cheese sandwiches.
I find that they have a good bottled drink selection as well. I always find either an old favorite, or a flavor that I've never tried before.“

“Recomendado 100% Limpio y el servicio excelente“

“They allow you to get a full meal with room for dessert which are small but mighty. The food presentation is on point. Highly versatile spot: date night, girls night, or a group of your best friends or potential clients. Hands down, worth a return trip.“

“Great service, the food was on time and prepared correctly. It was very clean. I’d definitely return!!“

“Everything about this place is amazing!“

“Great food. They serve authentic Vietnamese food. Everything is well plated with family style portions“

“Seafood Shack inside Whole Foods in Fairfax is a hidden gem for a casual, healthy meal. The ingredients taste super fresh, and the dishes are lightly seasoned to let the natural flavors shine. It feels like clean eating without sacrificing taste. The prices are fair for the quality, making it a great spot to grab something nourishing after a workout or while shopping. Definitely a solid choice—especially if you care about what goes into your food.“

“You have got to ask for Jay Kim, he is the best server in the house. He was patient and ever so helpful with us as first time hot potters. I had a vegetarian hot pot, well, except for the dumplings. Although they have no vegetarian options, he worked with me and provided me with an alternate option. It would be more awesome for them to add it to their menu tho for those of us who just love veggies. The broth is vegetarian based so it makes sense to have a vegetarian option along with it. We had a party of 8 and Jay Kim made it so much fun!!! The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh. One other option that would have been great to have would be fresh ginger at the sauce bar and mushrooms on the vegetable plate. We were all pleasantly pleased with our food. The ambiance is very nice, low light but more than enough to cook and enjoy each other's company. Jay Kim made sure we always had what we needed. The sauce bar was amazing, so many choices. I recommend making a few bowls, some for the broth and and some for dipping your cooked food. If you get any type of meat, also make a sauce to marinade the meat. You don't have to but it made a good difference. Meats are thinly sliced for quick cooking and again,so fresh. The price was worth the amount of food and the experience. There is an all you can eat option or an a la carte option where you just get one meat selection and a vegetable plate which was more than enough for us as a party of young ladies. This was a great first hot pot experience and I definitely recommend it, just make sure to ask for Jay Kim. I know you will enjoy it!!!“

“they had a really hot guy working there with a little bracelet on what is his name but overall good food.“

“Love the atmosphere and the food is always delicious!“

“The food is very delicious!“

“Misha was amazing, he anticipated our needs, provided a top of the line service, or I should say over the top, really! we will never want to have anyone but him when we come to palm!!! cannot wait to another perfected dinner,thanks to Misha!“

“Yummy but expensive, large portion“

“Wonderful service and excellent food. I wanted a NY Strip Steak and I got one - grilled perfectly. My wife thoroughly enjoyed her grilled salmon and my daughter - 10 years old and very picky - was treated respectfully and was well- accommodated. Highly recommended.“

“Excellent place to dine. Very fresh food. Some of the best tasting Italian i’ve had. Also not too expensive. The wine is great too! Great restaurant!“

“Great atmosphere, fantastic service and outstanding food! Easily one of the best restaurants in Chantilly. A hidden gem!“

“The food is always amazing and the staff is SO nice. Now that they have online ordering it makes pick up super easy! The best sushi in northern Virginia hands down“

“Es un lugar con todas las buenas para todo los gusto e estado dos veces en el horario de comida y siempre tienen una oferta muy variada y con precios bien económicos porque sus platos tienen una calidad de primera y lo acompaña un colectivo de trabajadores bien atentos y amables que hacen que su estancia sea bien placentera y su decoración es bien acorde al lugar donde usted puede encontrar la armonía de su tiempo ahy bien relajado .Yo diría que , El BARCO DE MANASSAS ES 5 ESTRELLA POR LO RECOMIENDO SI TEMOR A EQUIVOCACION.“

“Great Thai Food in NOVA. I really enjoyed Burapa Thai. The food was great .“

“Schaumburg spot it’s 6 ⭐️ out of 5 - pure perfection - thank you so much guys. Keep going“

“The best Indian food place in the entire DMV area. The most flavorful food around. Our favorite dishes are Chicken 65, Chole Bhature, and Butter chicken. Mango Lassi is delicious as well. The inside is decorated very tastefully, and the staff is super friendly.“

“I’ve been coming here for years and always had a great experience. They serve some of the best Italian dishes in all on Northern VA. The place is really clean and the staff are very friendly. It seems to be a favorite spot for locals with a very family friendly vibe. I really like their fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the Pollo Bryan. The calamari here is excellent at well. On Monday nights, they have a large 3 topping pizza for only $11.99 which is an amazing deal for a high quality brick oven pizza. They also have prime rib on Wednesday nights which I love to get too. Whenever I meet up with friends at Giradinos, they all say that the food is great too. I need to try some more of their entrees but it’s hard to when I really love getting what I’m used to. Highly recommend this place if you love Italian dishes, brick oven pizza and some good wine.“

“Muy buena comida muy bien a tendida“

“This place reminds me of getting Chinese food in NY and is full of flavor! I have tried a little bit of everything on the menu and have no complaints. My favorite is their fried rice with bean sprouts and the szechuan chicken . I usually place my order for pickup and the food always comes out hot and fresh!“
