21 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cromwell

“Same owner as the former Ming Dynasty in Rocky Hill. The food is great quality. Most Chinese takeouts can be bland and greasy, but the food here is flavorful and clean. The prices are affordable, and best of all, the owner and staff are super sweet. Highly recommend Ming Garden!“

“How is it possible? This place can serve me a wonderful chicken piccata dinner with salad and bread for $21 and a glass of house wine for six dollars? Excellent food service and atmosphere. Plus a live rendition of love is in the air. Wonderful service food and prices make this place a grand slam. Support this business.“

“Simple and effective! Stopped in last night to grab something quick. I ordered a General Tso’s combination and a Large Pork Lo-Mein. When I went inside it reminded me of a place I used to frequent back in Queens. Family owned and operated, the young man who took care of me at the front was very polite. I got my food on-time and hot. The food was great, I have absolutely no complaints. The General Tsos was actually spicy like I prefer, the rice was fresh and flavorful. The Lo-Mein was just what I expected. I would definitely order here again.“

“Always amazing food and great service. My only complaint is ever time I make reservations and show up on time, I end up having to wait 10-15 minutes before being seated. Not the end of the world, but for the pricing, I expect a table to be ready when reserved.“

“Treated my sister to an excellent dinner on Easter weekend. Loved the with artic char with chef’s specialty , ginger rice and a delicious pablano sauce!“

“My favorite Thai restaurant currently in the greater Hartford area. The food reminds me of my mom's cooking. I make the trip from Hartford To New Britain whenever I want a piece of home. This small quaint restaurant packs a punch and doesn't hold back on flavor. While some places water down the flavor to cater to a broader audience Mai (the owner) chefs it up as if she is in her home kitchen cooking for family. You taste the loving in her cooking. There is limited seating but when you get the chance order a few dishes with friends or family and share the meal Thai style. You can always order in advance and pick up or utilize a delivery service. You won't be disappointed. Ask for Mai (pronounced May) and tell her Ty sent you. She will make sure you're taken care of.“

“Went here for dinner and had a very nice time. The food was great and so was the service. I'll definitely go back again!Parking: Google maps took me only to the entrance of the golf club. The restaurant is beyond that, up a well-lit driveway with a large parking area at the top.“

“DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THIS PLACE! If you’re thinking about going here, don’t think, just go! The food was absolutely delicious. The lobster cake special and salmon special were amazing. The shrimp scampi had the most juicy and flavorful shrimp I’ve ever had. The bread and clam chowder were great. We got a massive salad with our entree and they sent us home with a fruit basket!! Our server was friendly and the service was at a great pace. The atmosphere had very cozy vibes. This will be our go-to seafood spot and could be yours too!“

“Best Indian food. Good service. Variety of menu.“

“1st off, I've very upset.. that I live almost 90 minutes away from this fabulous restaurant.2ndly, most amazing food I've had in a long time. Amazing hospitality fast service and with a smile and an amazing personality. It was my 1st time here, and it was like I've been here a million times.If you're thinking about coming here to eat, stop thinking and do it. You will not regret it at all!!!!“

“Good place for lobster, clams and other seafood. Small restaurant, does have outdoor seating. I had the lunch of whole belly fried clams. I was very satisfied. My companions had the lobster tots (for lunch a very large portion), and the lobster roll. Both were happy with their choices. We also had the Rhode Island clam chowder. Tasted good, but the soup could have been hotter. All in all, a good experience.“

“Family style bar and restaurant. I've had a thick juicy cheeseburger and the fish and chips. Both dishes were nice large portions of flavorful and fresh tasting and well seasoned food. The place is friendly and well appointed. Prices are reasonable and service is great. The patrons are having fun socializing with each other. There are even families, but no young children. They are a mix of young and old. People are dressed in casual work clothes.“

“I’ve been here several times as I live within walking distance and I have enjoyed the food. However, one visit I had on a Friday night 6 months ago left my friend and I very unhappy. She had been in town from the West coast and being from here she wanted a lobster roll before leaving the next day. We arrived at 8:45 and this place closes at 9, even on the weekends. But we were fine with getting everything to go. Unfortunately we were turned away because the woman behind the counter said “they had already turned everything off”…whatever that meant. As if everything couldn’t be turned back on?The place wasn’t empty, there were several other people dining there still when we walked in. I understand we got there “late” but I saw no reason why they couldn’t make our order to go with 15 minutes to spare before closing. Their priorities were very clear that serving a customer was less important than going home. If you say you’re open until 9, then be open until 9. Period. My friend was very disappointed and I was quite upset. I had no plan to return but I had family who came to visit 3 months later who wanted to try the place and they were pleased with the food as well. But I haven’t been back since and I’m not sure I will be. In the end I think we were being guided to something better as we tried a restaurant that I have been wanting to try for awhile in Wallingford and we had a great dining experience there so all was not lost. So if you are looking for some decent seafood it’s worth visiting but beware if you get there too late as they will think nothing of turning you away.“

“First visit had apps sushi and noodles. Excellent food and presentation“

“Highly recommended! Great happy hour and oysters and clams on a half shell.“

“Found our next ‘excellent’ food restaurant up in this area. Def recommend.“

“I have now had 2 post funeral luncheons and 2 volunteer appreciation dinners at Casa Mia and all have been outstanding. The staff and food have been amazing Everyone is friendly and helpful and very accommodating.I will always consider them first for any event that I have.“

“La comida excelente todo con un sabor único. Lo único que me quejo es que pedi una bolsa para llevarme lo que no me comí y la mesera me dice que se le acabaron. Sin embargo le compré otra orden para llevar y si tenía bolsa. Cosas pequeñas que dañan la reputación de un buen negocio. El servicio al cliente es más importante que la calidad de la comida.“

“I only recently learned that this tapas bar existed in Middletown’s Main Street Market, and I’m so glad that I visited! They had a huge menu with choices to fit anyone’s preferences. Highlights for us were the paella, croquettes, and even the Brussels salad because it had such a great truffle flavor! Their drinks were fantastic - we’re still talking about the Barbie one we had in a unique glass! Definitely save room for the delicious chocolate strawberry cake for dessert. Loved the ambiance, and our server was professional and attentive!“

“Must try . Great place to chill and have a good time whit friends..“

“We stopped here for some quick sushi due to its proximity to the Truck Bar. It was a good find! A little hole in the wall place in a large plaza. The service was excellent, very attentive and accommodating. The atmosphere was a little underwhelming, as it seemed to keep busy with mostly takeout orders as opposed to dine in. The food itself was good, not the greatest sushi ever, but it hit the spot for a sushi craving!“
