37 Best Seafood Restaurants near Castro Valley

“Absolutely super tasty with nice variety of toppings. The team making the food was helpful and explained what different things were and gave some good recommendations regarding sauce combinations. The fish is fresh and the everything else is was crisp and delicious. Medium portion is huge so they are very generous with their scoops. We took out but there was plenty of table space. Parking is plentiful. The only reason I'm not 5 staring this place is due to all the extra fees. Every time I asked for something I heard "that's extra". Just build it into the pricing. Sorry it's my pet peeve. All in all a great experience. By all means try it out. I will be back. Let's support our local businesses!“

“Came here with a coupon for a half-priced lunch plate. I ordered the "fire chicken lunch plate" with a drink (as per the coupon). It came with two-scoops of steamed rice and one-scoop of macaroni salad. Great amount of food for the couponed-price but not as good a value without the coupon (price was just under $11, with tax). $7.00 more, without the coupon. Food was excellent, as the fire chicken was mildly hot and spicy. The bed of veggies (broccoli and cabbage) was fresh/crunchy. Mac salad was good and the steamed rice was perfectly made. The iced-tea was from a spigot-mix and was awful. The spigot it came out of dispensed more water than tea (so, the IT tasted more like water and less like tea). Cashier was indifferent but courteous. The eating area felt more like a cafeteria but I think they are going for that indoor "Hawaiian feel" (they had outdoor seats too). Pricey choice for CV but food was solid/excellent.“

“I found this place by chance while looking for Cajun style shrimp. The place is small and cozy. The flavors were there, the sauce is just a bit lighter and on the oily side than my regular place, but still tasty. The garlic noodles are also very good. My husband asked for chicken wings and they were decent, but nothing special. My biggest complaint is that I was trying to place my order over the phone for take out and the phone was not in service. I know these days you can place orders online, but I was driving so doing the call would have been much easier for me. & If you don't take phone orders that's fine, but then you shouldn't list the number as an option. The prices were fair, the service in person seems to be great so I plan on coming back and trying other things on their menu.“

“The best mexican food I've ever had and the nicest customer service. As someone who eats vegetarian try their veggie burrito. Just a bunch of dad's working here trying to feed people like a family. Highly recommend their churros too and horchata. My fiance also loves their chicken tacos and the chicken super burrito.Vegetarian options: Veggie burrito, tacos, churros, quesdillas“

“If you ready for a fingerlicious experience,You need to come here!!Parking: Is behind the building , a lots of spaces but a bit difficult to get inKid-friendliness: Outdoor and clean space so kids can be kidsWheelchair accessibility: Access big on the street side is plenty of room ?“

“One of the best fried chicken in a long time. It looks dry but there's a lot of juice and flavor once you get into it. If it was delivered I don't think it would taste as good. The fried cod was good but not great because it wasn't juicy or buttery soft.The cornbread sides were yummy. The Mac and cheese was cheeeeesy and thick and medium spicy. Collard greens were normal. Green beans were sweet and yummy. Fries were normal fries.I asked for tap water since I didn't want a drink and the server looked surprised (and partly disgusted because I wanted faucet water?) and asked if I wanted bottled water instead. I said sure so we could end the conversation and didn't see the charge on the final receipt. I wasn't sure if the server forgot to add it or bottled water is free. Overall not a complaint but if you want to avoid drink confusion, either don't order water or bring your own lol“

“We love coming to this place! A nice ambiance, amazing craft cocktails, and outstandingly fresh seafood. They run happy hour almost daily, and our fav day is Tue because they offer half off on their 4 oyster offerings. Highly recommend this “

“I tried the traditional menu items and got enchiladas and chile verde. So delicious! The service was excellent, I believe it was the owners who cooked and served my to-go order. By the way the to go it's packed exceptionally well. They care about their excellent service! The prices are all very respectable. Beyond that the fresh ingredients stand out, and the fresh tortillas-beyond delicious! Myself and my client loved the food. I can't wait to go back and explore the menu more.“

“Just tried two delicious pot pies from Pot Pie Paradise & Deli. The flavor in the crust to the flavor in the pie both compliment each other. They are reasonably priced allowing me to try many more as there are over 30 choices from beef, pork, chicken, turkey, lamb, seafood and vegan just to name a few. The pot pie desserts look amazing as well. I can't wait to visit again.“

“I highly recommend this spot. Food is amazing here. I come eat here all the time. Plenty of seafood choices. I love it here. Service is great, even when they are busy, they manage to find tables to sit. 5/5Parking: Lots of parking.Kid-friendliness: My kids enjoy this place. Plenty of television for entertainment as well.“

“My babies dad likes to take me here sometimes for something quick and good ,their fried fish ,shrimp ,and chicken is good very flavorful they’re greens are preening good too especially to be vegetarian they are very flavorful. I’ve had their bean pies and their sweet potato pies. Pretty good as well. Definitely will help you if you’re having a fried food craving.“

“Since moving to the neighborhood a few years ago, this Chinese restaurant has become our favorite takeout spot. Their fried rice and eggplant fried tofu dish are consistently excellent, keeping us coming back for more. We appreciate the consistently delicious food and reliable service whenever we crave Chinese cuisine!“

“As someone who spent most of their life in Los Angeles, I am very picky when it comes to Mexican food. I give Las Palmas a "Solid" rating. Their steak and shrimp wet super burrito was damn good, and also about as big as a swaddled baby - I wish i was joking, this thing was HUGE. And also a very reasonable price at about $18. They were very accommodating in not adding rice (Sorry Mission fans, the SoCal history runs deep with me, no rice on my burritos!)There could be a few more improvements to tip it into god tier, like little more seasoning with the carne asada; needs some cilantro and lime juice. Whip queso fresco with sour cream, use that to layer the bottom of the tortilla with instead of just sour cream, etc - Please, put down la chancla - I mean the absolute best and I'm sure there's some people who could truly offer better suggestions, but those are just what comes off the top of head.Parking: Parking is rather difficult in this area, usually end up needing to go a block or so away, and with the street on the right being one way, that makes it harder as you need to do a loop around to find any side parking spots.Kid-friendliness: I would not say this place is kid friendly, just because it's an order and go spot, absolutely nothing to keep a kid occupied for the 15 minute wait. Everyone who comes in quietly finds a spot to stay out of each other's way, maybe glance at the news on the TV. Kids would very quickly find themselves bored and probably stacking chairs or screaming much to the chagrin of people waiting on their orders. I don't mean this as a thing against kids (though my bloodline dies with me) just... know that they are easily bored and very loud.“

“I come here because I want to try black people bbq- I have a friend in oakland a she say this one good. we order the rib and the brisket and I really like. bbq sauce good and also genny, yes I find genny really there. she no want to make talk much but she take order and black man cook for us and I really like. a lot of meat too, bread I no like and green vegetable I no like. feel like a home style place.“

“Family owned, food is great and always fresh. Service is quick and timely and though I have never eaten in the restaurant itself it gives you that "whole -in-the-wall" vibe which everyone knows are the best places to eat. The food and friendly staff reflect that assumption“

“I'm glad there's a cajun seafood restaurant in Newark in the tastypot/sprouts plaza!! Came here for Monday night dinner (not busy at all, a sprinkle of people came in after) Place was more spacious than i thought, but it was overall clean and bright. The female server was super friendly taking our order too! Ordered; - 2 1lb of Shrimp (Head on) with corn and sausage with their crabby mild sauce; Expect around 20 shrimps per bag ahaha - Garlic Noodles - More like udon textured noodles; different than what i normally have - Steamed Rice The restaurant was nice enough to even let us try their carne asada and pastor tacos (Thank you!!) :) Overall, we were satisfied with our dinner cravings, and were able to pack some leftovers to go too.“

“We stopped in on a Monday for dinner. Apparently they host a charity each Monday with volunteer servers donating their tips and 10% of the bill to support a cause. A noble action by the owners to support the community. They serve a limited menu, but had what I wanted - pappardelle with pork ragout. Aldente pasta and a rich flavor on the sauce. I devoured the bowl. The portion seemed small, but was just enough.“

“Oh my!!! What a great find!! Delicious and authentic food. Good portions and competitive prices. Call ahead to make sure they have what you want to eat. They sell out fast.Parking: This is a food truck in a parking lot.Kid-friendliness: Low key no fuss atmosphere. Only three tables available when we were there. And kids were happy.“

“Red snapper and party wings were seasoned well. Not salty. This place is well priced and stays busy. Order ahead. You can also order party wings in a box 40-50 wings which is great for a party for about $45. It is the go to in area. Must try.“

“The salmon stuffed ravioli was very good...bread for days...wine drinks place is nice to bring a date or just grab a bite to eat... calamari it was on point and so was the burger and no onions it was supposed to be well done but it came back pretty pink so other than that it was good. Wait staff was very nice and Josefina was always checking to see if i was in need of anything...wonderful staff..ice cold drinks on top.Been awhile since I came this place was great except I had an issue with my calamari.. they comped my item. Drinks on point“

“I was pretty impressed with the quality of the food and the freshness. Tasted very delicious, my whole family was satisfied and everyone went for seconds and some thirds. If your in Hayward and you want to eat some tasty Chinese food, then go to China “

“Came back as its been awhile. Still consistent whether bento box or sushi. My fav bento is chicken teriyaki, tempura and CA roll. That was satisfying. The sushi roll was good. Just be ready to be patient as they are short staffed. Sushi chefs busy as the two older ladies are hosting, taking orders, etc. Service is pretty much order as soon as they come as one other woman she just walked by when we arrived. And the other ladies are hustling.“

“Great place to eat or have a drink ?Vegetarian options: There is fresh fruits & salads availableParking: There is limited free parking. Also there is free street parking & metered parking availableKid-friendliness: Yes, the restaurant is kid friendly with a TV to watch inside or out“

“This place was delicious and the food here was great, this may have been the best Vietnamese food I have ever had. I may have had to drive 7-8 hours to get here but it was all worth it, I would recommend this place to everyone because the French fries were also very good. This place serves the food very fast and it was absolutely delicious 5 stars and will come back again.“

“A must try! The scallop risotto is absolutely amazing! The salmon was delicious. Drinks are special. The punch bowl is the way to go. Soooooo good! Our waitress, Kayla, was attentive and knowledgeable. She made excellent suggestions. She made our experience that much better. The manager, Melissa, took the time to come chat with us and make sure all was well. The pastry chef knows what she's doing. Best carrot cake I've ever had. Super friendly staff, great ambiance. We might be back every weekend.“

“Realized I forgot to take photos of the food because I was enjoying every bite! It was my first time here and we had a large group of 16. Staff was friendly and accommodating for us. Food came out fast and each dish was told to us as it came out so we knew what we were eating. Portions were good I especially loved the green beans and the salt and pepper pork chop. I didn't even have to ask for more water as they came around multiple times throughout the dinner. For dessert they even brought out mango pudding which was a nice surprise. Would definitely come back to try dim sum.“

“We had a large group and ordered a variety of dishes. Everyone said they would go back and loved it. I had the lamb shank and it was perfect. My wife had the combination platter - another hit. Highly recommend and the desserts are equally great. Also, very large portions.Vegetarian options: Highly recommend the combination platter of dolmas, Baba ghanoush, humus and tabbouleh salad. Plenty of other dishes though.Wheelchair accessibility: We had a large group of elderly, some in motorized wheelchairs and some in regular wheelchairs and walkers. Very accommodating including the bathrooms.“

“Have been coming here since 1999 but stopped for a while due to Covid restrictions. Ordered the Bacon, Mushroom and Avocado omelette and boy it was sooo good. My nephew ordered a Club sandwich and it was excellent. Customer service is excellent, as well. Prices are not bad for the food quality, portion size and tastiness.Plenty of parking and wheelchair accessible“

“A un assuming old style Mexican food restaurant. Flavor filled salsa with a spicy chili kick.. un like other Bay Area salsas. De Ajo is garlic heavy as it should be so close to the garlic capital city ... and surprisingly light in taste without heavy oil. Red sauce reminds me of a red chili ground down just for the purpose to accompany and make a statement muy rica. Great find on our way south.“

“Came here with some friends right before their happy hour ended but Gina was so nice and decided to honor it for us anyhow! She also brought us soooo many bonchons (note you do have to order an entree for bonchons) We ordered a lot of food which did take some time to trickle out but we understand as Gina seems to be the only server that night. Korean pancake - 4.5/5 I loved this one cause it was thick and very crispy. My friend did say she prefers the pancake at Sisters House tho because it's thinner there Tofu soup - 3.5/5 it was a lil underwhelming and not salty enough and I feel it was missing a little depth of flavor. My friend and I both prefer the tofu soup at Sisters House BBQ Pork Sizzling Platter - wasn't very well charred. I don't usually get sizzling platters but the ones at Sisters House is better The fried chicken - 4.5/5 very good! I liked the crispiness of the chicken and inside was juicy. You do have to pay extra $2 for flavoring or for it to be crispy so keep that in mind. We did dip this into our tteokbokki/sausage sauce which Gina recommended Tteokbokki/sausage skewers - 3/5 I thought it was just okay for the price of what it was lol. I don't love the sausage but the tteokbokki did have a nice lil crisp to it on the outside but with that familiar chew once you get to the center“

“I got the 333 combo with three fried oysters, three fried shrimp, and three pieces of fried catfish. Everything was cooked PERFECTLY! Moist and tender meat with a crispy crust. Absolutely classic. The combo was a lot of food! It came with Louisiana style hot sauce, tartar sauce, and ketchup, as well as plenty of fries.Service was cheerful and very friendly. There isn't any seating, so it's really take-out only.The one minor criticism I have is that the fries were pretty mediocre, but they really aren't the main attraction here anyway.“

“Been going here since I was 17 years old. Watched the kids that help out grow through out the years. Everything in there including the decors has been the same. It’s like a Time Machine. Loved the beef fried rice and the garlic fried chicken.“

“Always tasty no matter what we pick from their endless menu. The service is friendly and quick. They only accept cash or Venmo which is fine. There's plenty of safe free parking and available seats. Also clean restrooms. We go there at least 2-3 times a month. Super ☝️✨“

“Yummm and I love their all day HH. I came here on a Tuesday around 5-6pm. It wasn't popping and was kinda dead but I kinda expected that on a Tuesday. We got the two rolls for $20 deal. I got the dragon roll and my partner got the lion king. We also got the agedashi tofu. The food was enjoyable and the price was great. We'll be coming back for their all day HH again.“

“On my way up to Broadway Terrace to see the Kingfish about this and that and just had to stop at Crogan's and get a roast pork sandwich. Probably the best sandwiches in the East Bay.Normally I have it on a French baguette with melted Monterey Jack cheese, but today I wanted it on the lighter side, because I've got a big todo, to do for that old nasty witch, Hazel Willslurpit up on Hardshaft Ridge.She's asked me to pound in a fence post for her, so I'm taking Bucktooth Timmy with me to do the nasty work. He should have the job done in about 5 minutes. As I sat there waiting for Timmy to scream, all I could think about was how Amazing that Crogan's sandwich was it was Spectacular!5 Stars all day long. ☆☆☆☆☆“

“On the recommendation of a family member, my wife and I decided to make a stop for happy hour. The burgers are really outstanding and very well priced. The ambiance is nice and the service was as good as it gets. I most definitely recommend a happy hour stop“

“Ordered to go from here for the first time a week ago. Got some of the staples, and the food was definitely better than average as far as to go goes. The restaurant was very authentic and the staff were friendly, great ambiance and I regretted not just going there to dine.“
