50 Best Seafood Restaurants near East Palo Alto

“A hidden gem in EPA! This place is pumping out awesome food! We came in a group of 7 people and sat down pretty quick. We sat outside in the patio seating and it was very nice a cool breeze came through there and the decor was nice. We looked through the menu and started to make our order. The food was good the vampiro tacos are on point I loved the shrimp ones very good! The sushi rolls they had were also smack! Enjoyed the salmon roll we had. Beer and seafood you can't go wrong with that! This place is a must try spot right next to Pal market on university before you head to the bridge. Thank you to the friendly staff and awesome chefs in back!“

“An absolute favorite that I am sure to visit on every trip to the Bay. Very unique fusions of Indian and Californian flavors with something for every palate. My favorites are the sesame leaf, burrata kulcha, house salad and dry boat scallops. Also don’t sleep on the cocktails. Very nicely crafted.“

“Wow I was blown away! The workers are extremely nice. They gave us potatoes and corn on the house because we mis read what the meal comes with. We insisted they add it to our tab but they refused. That enough says a lot. The sauces are Aahhhmazzzingg. Almost like a glaze like sauce. So much flavor. Everything was fresh and tasteful. Recommend 10000 percent !“

“In search of a late lunch and the gorditas here caught my attention. Order comes with 2, and I went with the chicharon. May look small, but it was filling. Loved the texture of the crispy masa shell. Flavors of the inside was good, too - would've liked more of the chicharon. I'd definitely return as there are other menu items I'd like to try.“

“Reservations recommended. It's a fabulous find with fantastic food. This was our second visit, and my partner said the margarita she ordered was a good as our first time. The service was terrific, and the food was hot and delicious. The salsa served with the chips was teetering on the high end of my tolerance, but I'm kind of a lightweight in that regard. The only cautionary note is the environment. The space has tall ceilings and nothing to dampen sound. As a result, it is pretty raucous and lively...not ideal for quiet conversation. I wouldn't want them to change as that's part of the experience.“

“Interesting Chinese restaurant. Been there twice. A large selection of dishes - some very tasty, some for everyone. The portions are large (as was noted, many take two dishes for three), the price category is average, the staff is wonderful - friendly and helpful. The restaurant is quite clean. The only thing that didn't please me was the toilet. I wish it was cleaner there.You can take food to go. I was pleased that they thoughtfully provided you with napkins, cutlery, and even fortune cookies.“

“Stumbled upon this spot because my girlfriend and I were looking for a quick take out place. We found parking really close and ordered through a tablet. We got our food in 15 minutes! We got the spam musabis, chicken katsu and bbq chicken plate and the short rib chicken bbq plate. The portions are huge and the service was really nice. They also gave us a stamp card so after ten orders you get one for free! Definitely will be coming back.“

“Defintely Poke'd Out after the lunch. Ordering method is broken down nicely and listed down well in the menu. It goes like Base + Poke + Mix-in + Sauce + Add-ons. I have chosen the medium sized bowl where I got 4 scoops of poke instead of mentioned 3, all the sizes get additional scoop as complementary. Chose couple of miso shrimp and spicy crab(it was spicy indeed) scoops. Tofu medley was not that great, tough to satisfy vegetarians or vegans. I felt the quantity was overwhelming for one person, small would be more than enough. Priced around $20 for the medium, it's on the expensive side, but the diverse selections make it recommendable. Note that it’s only a to-go restaurant.“

“Great food, clean and nice place and warm staff. I ordered it for lunch on door dash and I liked it so much that I brought my kids for dine in the next day. The steak, curry noodle soup, shrimp plate, their salad and the peanut butter dressing were amazing. The plates are decent size and heartily.“

“My cousin went to this restaurant few days ago with me. The service and food are both great. This is an American-Japanese fusion restaurant and we just had perfect steak and fish filet, also the waiter is fantastic, very friendly and talkative. I'll go back again for sure!“

“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 “

“Visited during Fremont restaurant week and scored a sweet deal that came with Cesar salad, salmon filet and cheesy risotto, strawberry cheesecake, and a glass of wine. Decor is light and modern, service is excellent, and food is consistently solid.“

“I had a wonderful time at this restaurant! The atmosphere was cozy, and the service was exceptional. The staff were friendly and informative, making us feel right at home. They even went out of their way to ensure the child in our group had a great experience, providing a fun kid's plate and sprinkles on their ice cream.As for the food, it was amazing! The roti and drunken noodles were particularly delicious - definitely must-tries.Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and warm hospitality.“

“Mumu always hits the spot!This was our first time at the Foster City location. We normally patronize the Pleasanton location, but as we were coming from SFO, we thought we’d try this location.First off, they have outdoor hot pot tables available; we didn’t do it this time, but next time for sure! The restaurant staff is great here, very friendly and go above & beyond… there’s also ample parking available too.The veggies and meat are all fresh and fantastic and the sauce bar is loaded.We’ll definitely be back!“

“Having visited Chef Chu in Los Altos on multiple occasions, I've found the dining experience to be generally pleasant, albeit with room for improvement. The restaurant boasts some delectable dishes and a welcoming atmosphere, but there are notable areas that could be enhanced.Firstly, cleanliness standards need attention, particularly regarding glassware and cutlery. On several visits, I've observed dirty glasses and teacups, suggesting subpar cleaning practices. It's perplexing for a renowned establishment to overlook such basic hygiene, leaving patrons questioning the maintenance standards.Another aspect warranting consideration is the imposition of a limited dining time. Despite patrons wishing to linger and enjoy conversation after finishing their meals, there appears to be a rush to clear tables, even if dishes still contain food. This policy detracts from the relaxed dining experience expected at a high-profile restaurant like Chef Chu.On a positive note, interactions with some waitstaff have been delightful, reflecting the friendly ambiance cultivated by Chef Chu himself. However, consistent efforts are required to ensure all aspects of service align with the restaurant's esteemed reputation.Regarding the cuisine, while some dishes excel, others may fall short of expectations. It seems that char siu might not be the restaurant's forte, highlighting areas where culinary refinement could elevate the overall dining experience.“

“Was visiting San Francisco and had dinner at this wonderful establishment. We were a party of 12 and everything from the spirits, appetizer, main course and desserts were fantastic. Service was extraordinary. The place was packed and we were given attention that made us feel special. Highly recommended.“

“Visited Rustic House while in town on business week of 4/1/24. Food and service were fantastic. I recommend the crab and lobster linguini!! It was so good that I went back the following day to get it again! Great experience for a first timer in CA - thanks“

“There has been nothing in the menu we do not like. The best appetizer is the roti with chicken curry. The Curry is a non spicy coconut milk curry. The best salad is the green tea salad. It has a slight kick even if you drop the jalapeños. The best soup is the samosa soup. For entries there are lots of good options, but I like the fiery dishes. They are sweet and spicy.Think of Burmese food as Indian, Thai, and Chinese fusion. If you like any of those cuisines you can find something you would enjoy on the menu.“

“My friend visited me last weekend and we decided that we wanted to go to a steakhouse. This place was just amazing. The service and the food was just spectacular. I ordered a tomahawk and it was just delicious. It was perfectly cooked to my liking and I will be returning here again.“

“Emelina's is a great Peruvian food joint. The service is brilliant. Everything on the menu looked delicious and left us confused as we wanted to order everything. We devoured the ceviche and grilled fish. It was cooked to perfection. We will be back to try out the rest of the items on the menu.“

“Great food and service, atmosphere is clean just old. Crunchiest and best tasting cod ive had in the bay area. Fries are good not super crispy could be better but the fish is tops. Chowder is delicious just like mama used to make. Calamari is good too very fresh.“

“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.“

“We were craving a carbonara but we tried plenty of other items on the menu as well. We must have been hungry because we ordered a garlic shrimp and a bruschetta for appetizers. Then a risoto, bolognese, tortellini and a medium pizza Pompeii. For dessert we shared a limoncello tartufo. Service was great. The style was more of an old school Italian, nice sauces, perfectly cooked pastas. The pizza bread was thick kind and the toppings tasty. Our favorites would be the tortellini and bolognese but the rest were equally nice. The dessert was divine and I am usually not a fan of lemon. Bread is served with dinner with butter and a nice dipping sauce.“

“This place is amazing!! In from out of town so tried this place. The food is awesome!!! I don't like spicy and they made sure it wasn't. They even customized my thai tea with extra cream. The chicken satay was super tender. The peanut sauce is one of the best I've had. The fried shrimp rolls were Super Fresh. The garlic prawns were out of this world yummy. I wish they would take off the peelings but I'll definitely order it again. The pad see ew was so fresh and wonderful. I really can't wait to return to this place. I highly recommend it!!“

“Tasty fresh food. Plenty of seat, no waiting.Vegetarian options: Many veggies optionsDietary restrictions: Can order many side dishes separatelyKid-friendliness: Plenty of room baby and kid seatingWheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room. Parking right outside front entrance“

“Everything about this place is awesome. From the manager to the hostess , everyone is greeting you with a smile. There's no member of their staff that don't seem to not want to be there. Everything there is a positive vibe. Cheers.“

“Total trepidation with trying anything that dares call itself a sushi restaurant. As a former Tokyo resident, It's bad enough as it is to see Americanized sushi rolls everywhere. Given the rave reviews, the intriguing juxtaposition of flavors, and wanting to support local businesses struggling to survive along Middlefield Road in North Fair Oaks, I just had to check it out. I had ordered takeout out of concern for parking and ambiance but upon arrival found easy street parking and found it to be rather busy for 5:30 on a Friday. The bar was full and as were several of the booths. Online ordering on their website was easy. Sweet lady at the front, I'm assuming is an owner, was very kind and appreciative of my patronage. I got the Divorciado sushi roll, the portion for which was huge, but saw the ceviche Tostada Perrona which looked really appetizing, so I got that as well. Best not to think of it as Asian-Mexican fusion and just as Sinaloan seafood specialties. I thoroughly enjoyed the sushi roll, subtle combination of flavors worked well together. Ceviche was very fresh. It came with two tostada. I will definitely be back with friends.“

“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.“

“The menu at Rincon Sabroso is a masterpiece in itself, showcasing a wide range of dishes that highlight the richness of their cuisine. The attention to detail and the use of fresh, high-quality ingredients were evident in every bite. I had the pleasure of sampling several dishes, and each one was a work of art.“

“Every time I come to this place and every time I forget to write a review). The restaurant is very clean, the staff is kind and courteous, the portions are large, the food is quite tasty, the price category is above average. I am attaching the menu and photos of the dishes.“

“Ordered Thai ice tea, yellow curry and pad kee mau and both were absolutely delicious. This is my 8th or more time coming here and this place beats the best Thai restaurants in the Bay Area. Family owned business and they keep the food bar high. Highly recommended!“

“If you’re looking for a place with authentic Vietnamese cuisine, you’ve found it. The people here are kind and genuine. I have nothing but positive things to say about the culture they bring to this area. Do not miss out on an opportunity to eat here. Especially if you’re from out of town!Kid-friendliness: They don’t mind kids. All types of families here.Wheelchair accessibility: It’s all tables you can remove the chair from and put a wheelchair“

“Great birthday celebration dinner. Very good appetizer, calamri, grilled octopus, bruscetta and delicious main dishes, spagetti bolognese, seafood risotto. Creme Brule and napolean for dessert and all served with a smile and attentive service. We will return and highly recommend.“

“Very good, delicious and above all very varied, everything we have eaten is in excellent condition in portions and above all the flavor is very Sinaloan, the prices are very affordable and the service is fast and careful, the family atmosphere is excellent ?“

“Such a guilty pleasure! It's in an odd location to buy fried chicken bur the chicken was hit, crispy and moist inside! It's take out only so no comments on the service. Location was a 7/11 type store. The other KKC I've been to was in a gas station. You don't go here for the ambiance or how the place looks. You come here to fill a craving. Food was good. The cornbread was good. I'll pass on the fries next time. I'll come back again when I'm craving fried chicken.“

“This place was amazing, the lomo saltado was so tasty and delicious that I asked for an order of it to go, that’s other than the one I ate.The yuca frita, el arros chaufa (might of misspelled that, see picture was phenomenal.We were visiting family and they recommended this restaurant.A must try restaurant and embody the Peruvian culture, oh yeah the decorations were nice also. See all pictures“

“It's been a while since I visited Fu Niu Tang. Craving for crawfish, I decided to give it a try when I saw it on their menu. It's crayfish season now! They use live crawfish. It didn't disappoint! As someone who has tried countless crayfish dishes, from hand-held seafood to stir-fries to Sichuan-style.Since everything else was spicy, I ordered garlic flavor, which still had a bit of spice but not as heavy as the spicy ones. The flavor was so fresh! The crayfish flavor seeped into the sauce and cucumber. The rice noodles soaked in it were delicious! Next time, I definitely want to try the spicy flavor“

“My son came from San Francisco to eat Tacos Y Mariscos El Gordo's steak burrito where I eat often. This mom and pop Taco truck is what I think of when I crave authentic "MUCHO DELICIOSO" mexican food... I continue to rate 5 stars!“

“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“

“Amazing food that is a traditional but regionally unique cuisine of southern coastal Mexico along with the kind of dishes you would typically expect. There are many dishes I usually only have had the pleasure of enjoying when friends or coworkers share homemade. Good, but not over the top presentation. Hearty portions for everything I have tried so far. For example, the sushi rolls are a solid meal on their own.If you have never been to a rural Central American beach town, you might find the atmosphere oddly "rustic", but I am confident the owner knew exactly what they were doing in creating an authentic atmosphere of where his recipes are from.Feeling adventurous, love good Mexican seafood, or looking for another Hawaiian shirt dress code restaurant, don't miss out.Parking: Exclusive lot in back.Kid-friendliness: Yes?Wheelchair accessibility: Yes.“

“Had lunch here with family on a Sunday - there was no one other than another couple and we love the peach and quiet at the marina. Feels like a picnic. The food is decent, not fantastic and not bad. We had the mixed platter, clam chowder and fish salad. People working in the food truck were very nice. There;s not a lot of foot traffic on the weekend - hope they survive long enough. Will return.“

“I love poke house in general and this location is one of the cleaner nicer ones, but can the new guy please put more on! I get significantly less food when he helps me. Bowls come out to over $17 for the smallest size which is normally enough to feed an adult all the other times I've been here, the food should be touching the plastic top, not safely under. Please don't sprinkles the toppings on as if they're made of gold dust, and put a reasonable amount on :) thanks!“

“Really a great and cozy place for delicious sushi and dinner. Very romantic and I would recommend it as a sensual dinner experience for that 3rd or 4th date! ?Food is priced around $10-20 a plate. I went with 3 others and we all got whatever we wanted and paid around $45-60 each with tip.Parking: Parking located behind the sushi restaurant! Area is blocked off and labeled "For customers only"“

“My fiancé and I enjoy coming here! This location has a nice atmosphere with a large interior, a nice outdoor space with fire heaters, as well as a bar inside.I have only tried a few food items here, but have always enjoyed getting the protein bowls (pictured is the “Mexican Grill” bowl with shrimp from tonight).Some of the cocktails are tasty as well. We recommend trying one or both of the cocktails with passion fruit.Just wanted to throw a positive review out there since we’ve been here at least five times now, and I got a couple nice photos of our food today! ?“

“Wow! 25 years of living in fremont and I just found out about this place. My family has been here once a week for the past month and plan to keep this place in rotation. Staff is friendly and food hits the spot. Giving it 5 stars because I miss places like this. Ditch the panda and come support this place.“

“Nice little spot on El Camino, I enjoyed the decor of the booths. Netted Prawns were a good appetizer, Tom Yum was O.K., Pad See-Ew was very nice, Green Curry Halibut was my favorite, Tamarind Prawns were interesting, Panang Curry Chicken was spot on. I'd say 4.5, gotta round up... I did go back the very next day?.“

“Second visit to the restaurant. Thia time we ordered to go on the fish and chip deal. The fish is so crunchy and yummy. The fries are ok. I definitely will order the fish and chip again. Service is pretty quick. You order from the self-service kiosk, pay and wait for your order“

“I became addicted to the deluxe meshi rice at Rokko Sunnyvale. I haven’t had this dish since I lived in Daly City. I’m so glad to find it here in the South Bay.Lately I’ve been busy with work, so I ordered delivery of deluxe meshi from Rokko. The portion was so generous. This filled me up and I feel the ingredients were fresh and the flavors were excellent.Rokko also serves okonomiyaki from Fugetsu, which I had in Osaka. Fugetsu is a global chain and it’s the perfect place for okonomiyaki.“

“My friend and I love seafood boils so we decided to try this place out for dinner. Cute decorations inside, place was clean, server was attentive, and the food came out quick. I ordered a lb of mussels and she got a lb of shrimp (head on). We both asked for a combination of the 3 sauces (medium). The cook and texture of the seafood was great. The sauce was heavy on the Cajun side which I liked and the spice level was a perfect medium. We also got the garlic noodles, it wasn't oily like most are and I enjoyed the garlic flavor. Definitely try this place if you're craving seafood!“

“This place is an outstanding night out. It's not something we do every week because it was about $50 pp with drinks but none-the-less, great service, food was outstanding and not pretentious at all. The owner came by our table to introduce himself and the entire staff was really accommodating. Will absolutely be going back!“
