15 Best Seafood Restaurants near Burlington

“Looks like the menu changes, maybe daily? Their drink and food menu I saw on their site isn't the same I got when I got there.

I got the autocorrect drink, grilled pork belly, Littleneck clams, rainbow trout, and shishito peppers.

I came solo and booked a reservation for the bar. Bartender asked me if I was hungry because I ordered a lot of food. It's cute that he thought the portion size were large.

I reserved the bar because I didn't want to take up a table. But due to how uncomfortable the bar seating was, I would have unbashfully reserve a 2-seat table next time. I was bumping elbows with the people next to me and couldn't cut my food properly. Then when I wasn't eating, I'll have my arms crossed to make sure I didn't hit the people on both sides of me.

Autocorrect drink - 9/10 - was pretty good flavor and wasn't overly alcoholly.

Grill pork belly - 10/10 - was amazingly delicious. Pork belly was tender and that squash puree was amazing. I've never had squash that tasted so good. Can probably split between two people with the small portion it is but with how good it is you might get a second plate.

Littleneck clams - 9/10 - The bread was good. Crusted with a nice light butter. The clams were big and meaty. The sauce tasted great. Great on the clams. I'd say good to split for 2 people.

Rainbow trout - 9/10 - Trout was delicious. Went really well with the peppers, sauce, and veggies. Despite being mostly deboned, there are a few bones in there so be careful.

Shishito peppers - 8/10 - The peppers were good. There were zero heat imo. The tiny small green pickled thing in it was actually pretty good. Don't know what it is though. The creme fraiche could be better but overall dish was still pretty good. Good side dish to split between 3-4 people.

Overall, meal was satisfying and I would recommend giving them a try. Menu is small but worth coming back to try the other things. I personally would avoid the bar seating next time. At one point, they turned the lights down pretty low. Luckily I ordered before it did otherwise the flash light was coming out. The small plates came out one after another. The peppers and trout came out together. Pacing was well done.“

“The dining experience was average overall. $30 lobster roll had as much lettuce as it had lobster and lacked flavor. Lobster bisque was very good. Great views. Open tables all around but the four tables of guests were crammed into one corner of the building.“

“Wow! We've been loyal Tiny Thai customers for years, but decided to try Suvi's because it's so much closer. The rice is fluffy, the vegetables are cooked perfectly. Very fresh tasting. Love the yellow curry dish, the stir fried chicken with cashews and pad thai are sooo good. And the spring rolls and crab ragoon are just lightly fried. Deelish. Husband wife team are super nice. New favorite place for take out.“

“I go here for banh mi, love the pickled veggies from scratch, and hot peppers added in.“

“This restaurant has been our favorite for 20 years! We go several times a year and have never, ever had a bad experience. The staff is so knowledgeable and top notch. The food is superb (especially the sesame chicken dumplings and dry fried green beans…..and the cauliflower….and the lemon shrimp…..and if there’s any fish specials….)“

“Firecracker is my absolute favorite take out go to!!“

“Excellent customer service! At my first visit, I was given some incorrect information by an employee regarding the origin of the seafood I purchased. I left a comment in the follow up email receipt I received and was immediately credited for the mistake without even requesting retribution. I probably would not have been a return customer, but thanks to the exemplary customer service, I'll give them another try.“

“Disappointed by the lack of customer consideration. The late-night menu is advertised to begin at 10 PM, yet when we called at 9:30 PM on a busy Saturday night, we were told only pizzas were available. This is misleading and frustrating. The posted information is not accurate, and unfortunately, it doesn’t reflect the needs of a busy harbour location where late-night dining options are expected. It also shows on google you are currently closed. Please consider updating your hours and menu details to reflect actual service and better support your patrons.“

“My husband and I went to Casa Real today and when you walk in, the atmosphere is so welcoming and beautiful art everywhere. The staff is amazing and friendly. The food was delicious and came out quickly. I would highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Absolutely amazing from first course to dessert. Highly recommended!!“

“Super-fun experience at the culinary experience at the Essex Resort in Essex, VT. Our instructor, Denise, led us through the recipes and techniques to create a wonderful Vermont dinner that included roasted root vegetables, braised chicken (in dark beer and demi-glacé) with shallots and a variety of mushrooms, and a lovely kale salad. We were given the opportunity to decorate autumn themed sugar cookies as well as dip tiny apples into a luscious caramel coating. A small group of 9 students made the experience very intimate. Our meal was served with wine and fresh bread accompanied by an herbed compound butter. Denise was a perfect instructor and I would recommend the experience to anyone who loves to cook.“

“I had the Rotisserie cater an event for us. From start to finish ...it was a wonderful experience. The catering woman Diane. Is a gem. From booking to set up...We had no stress and food was amazing“

“Food was delicious and just perfectly cooked.
Staff was not courteous. If a customer asks for something simple, you can respectfully respond to them instead of exchanging mocking looks with another customer. Really not appreciated and therefore it would reflect in the amount for the tip. Staff training and professionalism would be very much appreciated.“
