12 Best Seafood Restaurants near Ocean Shores

“Bennett's Fish Shack is a clean and friendly restaurant with plenty of parking. The menu offers a variety of options, including gluten-free choices, and features dishes like fish and chips, the gluten-free fish burrito with grilled cod, and the king crab melt. The restaurant offers an independent soda brand from a self-serve fountain instead of Coke. While the prices may be higher than expected, the quality of the food is consistently good.“

“Home Port Restaurant is a tourist spot with consistently good food and friendly staff. The restaurant is spacious, making it great for large groups. Their fried seafood is not beer battered, a good Halal option. However, their clam chowder contains bacon, which might not be suitable for some. Despite this, the breakfast, lunch, and dinner options are highly recommended by visitors.“

“Mike's Seafood is a decent spot for fish and chips, with a comfortable and quiet atmosphere. While the food is good, some find it lacking in flavor and seasoning. Vegetarian options are limited, but seafood lovers will find plenty of choices. Parking is generally available, with lots of spaces in the rear. The restaurant offers good value, but some may find the prices steep. Overall, it's a nice place to dine with kids, but may not be worth the price for everyone.“

“Galway Bay Irish Pub, Restaurant and Gift Shop offers a cozy atmosphere with an interesting decor. The piano man creates a pleasant ambiance, but the kitchen could use some improvement in flavor and seasoning. The menu features an amazing hot horseradish and tasty oyster shooters, but could benefit from more vegetable variety and larger portions. They are kid-friendly and welcome furry family members. However, the prices are on the higher side for the average-tasting food, except for the good gravy. Colcannon, made of potatoes and cabbages, could use more cabbage for a better balance.“

“Emily's fine dining offers a mix of experiences. The food received mixed reviews, with some loving the clams and sauce while others found the chowder too salty. The ribeye steak was a standout, served with tasty sides like carrots and mashed potatoes. The calamari was a letdown for some, being chewy and bland. The service was a highlight, with one server being sarcastic but efficient. The restaurant itself is clean, though the seating area feels a bit dated. Prices were on the higher side, with one group of 6 spending $217 for lunch. Overall, Emily's fine dining seems to have its ups and downs, with a variety of dishes to choose from.“

“Bennett's Fish Shack offers a great dining experience with delicious food and excellent customer service. The menu includes options like fried prawns, prime rib French dip sandwich, cod and clam strip combo, and bacon cheeseburger, all served with generous portions of tasty French fries. The fish and chips are a must-try, with a great selection of beers on tap. The scratch-made cocktail sauce with a horseradish kick adds a flavorful touch. The Battered Cod, Dungeness Crab & Cheddar melt, and Crab salad are highly recommended dishes. Make sure to arrive early for oysters as they tend to sell out quickly. Overall, a fair price for the quality and quantity of food served at Bennett's Fish Shack.“
