50 Best Seafood Restaurants in Scottsdale

“Had a truly excellent experience yesterday for brunch on the patio. It started with the hostess seating us which was very professional and courteous. Alexis was our server and she was amazing. Found out during the end of our meal that she had only been working there for two days. She was as knowledgeable and professional as she could be. She checked back numerous times to see if we needed anything. The brunch burger was amazing. So many flavors inside one bun! The Bloody Mary’s were spot on! We dont live here but if we did this would be a regular spot for brunch, business dinners or just a great date night! In todays world of lousy service and subpar service, this place is a shining star!!!!!“

“OK I’ve got to be upfront about Eddie V’s – it’s a Seafood Lovers Paradise and a Foodies’ superb Haven. It isn’t cheap, but you more than get what you pay for, then some, and then some more. It made for a super enjoyable date night for my wife and I. Albeit I can almost guarantee that most folks who visit Eddie’s and can regularly afford this as I noticed around me, are not so much into the food but the atmosphere, the opulence and maybe, just maybe the excellent food, but more into the company they are with, the comfortable surroundings, and I must say, themselves! Although my wife and I were into most of that, the food with the atmosphere is what really makes Eddie’s extraordinary! As they advertise, they most definitely are a stylish and sophisticated fine dining experience. Their expansive, multi-room, sheik, classy and chic atmosphere lends to the intoxicating background with subtle live music wafting through the air (not too loud, just right) for a perfect evening of conversation, harmony, cuisine, pleasing audible resonance and leisure. The dusk was exulted by an incredible offering of exceptional and brilliantly prepared cookery. We started the evening with my fave Grey Goose Extra Dry Martini with 2 pimento olives and 2 cocktail onions, perfectly prepared, and my better half’s Grey Goose Cosmopolitan - exceptional. Magnificent renditions and Kudos to the ‘Tender! At the discretion of the Chef, this evening’s amuse Bouche of Watermelon Gazpacho, we was totally unprepared for – it was extraordinary in its subtlety and finesse, was an incredibly delish hors d'œuvre. For starters our selections of the Maine Lobster Bisque, smooth to the palate, savory and full of flavor, with an extraordinary Crème Fraîche (yes, with the perfect amount of Cogñac added), and their Classic Caesar Salad with a just perfect amount of dressing was seasoned without being overwhelming was fantastic. Our Entrées were exceptional. My selection of the “Chef's Seasonal Fish” a Mediterranean Branzino (Sea Bass) basically and caringly Broiled, I requested skin on, and simply seasoned with olive oil, lemon and sea salt and served with Asparagus was incredible – it was tender, moist and exuding with natural flavor, enhanced only with its basic preparation. This filet was excellently prepared and meticulously presented – adding to the sumptuous arrangement. My wife decided on a wonderfully prepared tender and awesome Norwegian Salmon with a perfectly rendered and delicious Kentucky Rye Whiskey and just the right measure of mustard Glaze served over tender and fresh Baby Carrots and gently Sautéed Spinach. The Au Gratin Potatoes we ordered for a side were stupendous. We wrapped up our dinner outing with my Wife’s choice an excellent rendition of Bananas Foster Flambé Butter Cake and I a delish Fresh Seasonal Berries with Cream. We topped everything off with Branson VSOP Brandy and Fonseca Bin 27. Magnifique! If you’re in the mood for romantic, tranquil, company and conversation – not to mention some of best culinary experiences in the Valley, this is the place for you… and us. Bon appétit!“

“We sat at the bar and the bartenders, Zach and Naomi, were extremely attentive. Didn't skip a beat when our drinks were low or removing dishes for us. Our drinks were fantastic. The food was impeccable and all sent out evenly spaced so we could enjoy each course. We had the lobster escargot for an app and I recommend taking them out of the tray and set on plate because they are so hot. Excellent flavors though. The oysters were amazing and the tray of condiments were a delight. We shared the filet and it was cooked medium rare to perfection. Oh and the butter cake is a must for dessert! We look forward to coming back again and again.“

“The food was excellent. The staff is outstanding, well trained, professional and friendly. White table cloths. Music was appropriately chosen to accompany fine dining and allow table conversation! Congratulations to the management, to uphold high standards. We and our guest had a 5 star experience. Thank you!“

“My wife and I had an anniversary dinner at Lure. We highly recommend! Our waiter, Paul, is an excellent server. He is very friendly, checked in with us, and his service was awesome. The manager was awesome also! He brought our entrees to the table and treated us to dessert. We ordered lobster tail, parmesan potato cake?? and clam chowder, all were excellent! The warm bread they bring to the table is amazing. We will be back!“

“Indulge in one of their amazing cocktails, choose the octopus for the first course, and enter dreamland from there. Last night was the latest A++ dinner where everything was done perfectly, and danced on our tastebuds like magic. A very special place, and there’s a reason why people are inspired to exclaim ‘best meal ever’. Life is short, go this week, Highly recommended.“

“Friendly staff. First time eating here. Salmon was excellent, broccoli was flat in presentation and too strong a taste. Reasonable portions for the price. Great atmosphere where you can hang at the bar, order fresh fish from the case, or enjoy a meal in house or on the patio. A good variety of a menu. Wait time for food served about 15 min from the time I ordered.“

“DOES NOT RECOMMEND Came for lunch & restaurant was empty. Eventually three additional parties came in after us but they all got their complete food orders before us. We reminded the clerk about our orders, but she kept making other people's food & did us last. We will NEVER come again. It took over 75 minutes to get our order. Save yourself the time. Go elsewhere.“

“If you're looking for your Cajun fix, then try Ocean Trail. Situated inside of the Talking Stick Resort, it could be a long wait to get a seat. I tried the shrimp boil and a bowl of red beans and rice. The shrimp was overcooked, but the spice level was perfect. The staff were all pleasant and checked in frequently

Accessible entrance.“

“Best Poke and friendliest staff in AZ!!“

“Amazing food and service! It’s amazing everytime we go“

“We just love Angry Crab. My Boyfriend and I go there all the time.“

“Returned last night for another birthday celebration for my girlfriend. This is one of our favorite spots to go to. There’s lots of steakhouses and seafood restaurants in Scottsdale to choose from. Some of which are some of the bigger names in the game. However we continue to choose the Salt Cellar because there is no compromise in quality (the food is actually better.) and the service you can tell is people who care. If you are looking for a great experience not just a great dinner. Stop (Down) in the Salt Cellar.“

“Love my bday celebration at Red Lobster!!“

“A bit expensive but delicious 😋 Due to price, it's not a place we can do as often as we like. The people who worked there are great! Very friendly!

Parking: There is very little street parking. The best is to park in the multilevel parking garage and walk. It is a pleasant walk, tho.

Wheelchair accessibility: Definitely wheelchair accessible.“

“Supposedly a high end steak house, the only thing high end are the prices and egos of their management team. Many better dining alternatives.“

“I just spent my first time going to Ocean 44 and I must say, this is one of the best restaurants I had ever been to. When I took my wife there they really took care of us. Any questions we had about the menu they made sure they walked us through the whole menu so knew how everything works. They took care of us just as good as being at a life loan Doctors office. I definitely recommend this place and especially to take your date to.“

“This was our first visit to the Capital Grill in Scottsdale. It was an experience to remember.

We had just purchased a new home in Arizona and stopped in to celebrate with drinks and a late lunch. Just walking in was impressive. The restaurant is beautiful ! The hostess immediately greeted us. She was very friendly, professional, and accommodating. We did not have reservations. Still, we experienced only a very short wait for our table.

Upon being seated, there was glitter on our table and beautiful card congratulating us on the purchase of the new home and a welcome to Arizona. (The hostess asked us earlier if there a special reason for stopping in)

Our wait staff was amazing, especially MARNIE ! Just the perfect blend of friendliness, knowledge, and superior service. Our food (Mini Tenderloin Sandwiches with Mushrooms) and drinks were to die for. Everything served to perfection.

We were served with a complimentary desert that was also to die for.

One of our favorite dining experiences ! We will be going back often. We highly recommend the Capital Grille. It is heaven !“

“By far the most professional service you can find anywhere. Cat and Randy have built a staff that is second to none and a menu that will never leave you disappointed. Do yourself a favor and I promise you will find yourself a regular. If you really want the perfect experience, ask for Elyssa who may be the best service professional EVER.“

“A great experience that placed us right back in Paris where we lived for 3 years. From the look of the menu, offerings, ambience and music. And of course the food itself. It seemed natural to flip to speaking French. Food was great.“

“Allergy Friendly, great service and atmosphere.“

“Found this spot on our last night of vacation and so glad we did. Atmosphere was great, food was phenomenal and our server Lisa gave us a slice of their pumpkin pie to celebrate our vacation, which was super sweet of her.

We started with the bread, which was a nice crusty loaf of sourdough. For dinner I had the braised short ribs and subbed a baked potato for the grits - divine. Hubby had the Roti and Ribs combo with pork belly baked beans - phenomenal. We could eat a tub of the baked beans on their own! Too stuffed for dessert, we ordered a slice of the key lime pie to go… had that for breakfast the next day and it was amazing! My husband and I aren’t fans of pumpkin pie but we devoured the one Lisa gifted us.

If we lived in Arizona it’d definitely be one of our regular spots. Highly recommend!“

“Beautiful atmosphere and the menu is excellent! Special occasions at Francine Restaurant will be memorable and delightful! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Simple yet amazing!!! Me and my family had a wonderful experience for lunch today. From the appetizers to the lunch meal, you couldn’t go wrong with anything you ordered! One of the best meals I’ve had since being here.“

“Great service (Matt is our favorite) and drinks are on point! Highly recommend!“

“I windsurfed Maui for years. Honeymooned there. 16th birthday for my daughter. This place reminds me of Paia and Malawian. Such a friendly attitude. The food was awesome. It’s not like Mama’s fish house more quaint.“

“Love all the options here--so many fresh add-ins!“

“Been a few times now. Always excellent! Best omelette around but even better if you add the Dungeness Crab! Excellent wines. Oystas! Service always professional and friendly!“

“One of my favorite spots to celebrate🍾🥂🎉“

“I always make it a priority to find great Indian restaurants in the cities I visit and live in; Masala Indian Cuisine did not disappoint.

I ordered the chicken mughlai, vegetable samosas, and naan. All three dishes tasted amazing and were cooked perfectly. The service was also undeniably incredible.

This is now my go-to Indian restaurant in Scottsdale.“

“I was here for my birthday 8/25/24 with my girlfriend. It was an absolute delight! I had the grass fed ribeye, medium well, and it was probably the best steak I've ever had. That's saying a lot for a guy living and being from Chicago. The ambience was top notched and the customer service was great! I can't wait until I'm back in AZ, I will definitely return here. This is a 5 star restaurant. -Marcus“

“Everything is incredible here! Jonathon was a wonderful host for the Garden Spritz Lunch Event, and Jason from Bacardi added unique info and insights into all the creative drink offerings. Please offer more of these, especially a bourbon offering in October!“

“In addition to having the best seafood in the entire state, they also have a very warm and friendly staff. We come every weekend and its worth every penny!“

“A wonderful restaurant for sushi and sashimi as well as other Japanese food options! We all enjoyed our meal and will all return over and over again. I have introduced many new people to the restaurant and they are thrilled with the find. They too will return and not bother driving downtown for very good and fresh sushi and sashimi. Wonderful and wide variety of choices, rolls, hand rolls, special rolls, etc. Service was fantastic and the staff is very polite and professional“

“Great atmosphere and cuisine“

“Hands down our favorite restaurant in Scottsdale! BYOB is the added bonus however Atlas has an amazing selection of great wines for purchase. Chef Jabari is incredibly talented. His food is delectable and his presentations are absolutely beautiful. This intimate restaurant is a MUST try for foodies!l“

“Great food!!! Great service!!!“

“I have celiac and we are traveling cross county right now and I’m trying as many dedicated gf spots as I can. This was a really special dinner. We ordered at least 8 items off the menu because everything looked so amazing. Everything was very top notch and, to me, somehow tased both familiar and something you couldn’t quite place, in a good way. We tried appetizers, main courses and a couple of desserts and I absolutely everything was amazing! Thanks for a great meal!“

“Wicked Seafood & Meats is an awesome place to get fresh fish and other meat. The friendly staff and quality of the products makes it worthwhile even if it's out of your way! One of the few places you can buy fresh Grouper. So glad we found this place!“

“Yes!! Awesome Happy Hour food and drinks!! Staff is great 👍“

“We spent our 47th Anniversary at the Scottsdale Mastro’s and had wonderful service, wonderful food, the best Vodka Martini ever! It is great place to spend ant time at, but especially Special Times! Thank you, Mastro’s for another outstanding experience!“

“On this day I celebrated my 73rd Birthday. The evening was perfect, and the waitress who handle my private booth made it happen. She was gracious, knowledgeable, and respectful in handling my disabled daughter. My wife and daughter had a wonderful experience. I waited two years and it was worthwhile the wait. Thank you for giving me my special night. June 16, 2022. Clarence E. Forster, Sr“

“Excellent sushi!! Awesome uni too“

“Outstanding food specials and the drink and food menu are regularly outstanding!“

“The food and the service are pretty good.

However, I would like to let you know the reviewers that their dumplings/potstickers/dimsums are not hand-made (or home-made). They are factory made.

Why do I care so much about hand-made dumplings? Home-made dumplings are much healthier because they put actual meat like beef, chicken or shrimp unlike the factory made dumplings that have processed things stuffed inside. Moreover, handmade dumplings/dimsums are far more superior in taste as well.“

“I was reading some of the one star reveiws and was wondering if they ate somewhere else? I have eaten here about 50 times and NEVER was it below 4 stars and almost always 5 stars. You will not be dissapointed when eating here as it is my wifes birthday today and this is what she craved.“

“Fantastic service and Fantastic food. Management in servers are the best.“

“The Krispy Crunchy Chicken is located inside the Shell Station and if you haven't tried it, you should because it's good stuff. I suggest their honey mustard sauce for dipping, good stuff too.I think they only serve Mon- Fri till 1 or 2pm and not serving Saturday and Sunday. I highly suggest giving it a try, definitely worth the price.“

“We enjoyed the atmosphere, even though we did not have reservations we were seated within 10 min. The wait staff (Wolfe and Cayden) were very courteous and professional. The food was outstanding, we particularly enjoyed the tuna tartar appetizer, but everything else (grouper, salmon, mushrooms) was delicious. I mentioned it was my wife's birthday, and they brought out a beautiful little Signature Butter Cake. This was a wonderful dining experience for us, we will we back!“
