18 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cottleville

“My first time here and I’m excited to come back. Friendly, relaxed environment and wide variety in menu. Park in lot in the back. The doors from the street are locked. It was a busy Saturday night but we arrived at 6:30 and didn’t need reservation. The seared salmon had a unique flavor with garlic, pecan balsamic and pesto. Cherry pie was disappointing.Kid-friendliness: Good kids menu with $7 meals“

“I ordered 4 meatloaf lunch specials today, let me tell you, these portions are huge! I am partial to my Momma's meatloaf but, this was absolutely amazing! Mashed potatoes with mushroom gravy, and the best green beans that I have ever had! Amazing prices, amazing food, and the best Strawberry-Rhubarb pie that I have ever had! There isn't any better out there! Amazing experience!“

“We ate here tonight for the first time as we were in the area. One of the workers saw me with my mobility scooter as I am currently disabled. He waited holding the door for several minutes to make sure that I was able to get inside. Then he helped me by carrying menus to the first open table. He repeatedly checked on us to make sure that I didn't need anything and didn't have to get up. The other worker in the area was constantly cleaning and making sure that everyone had everything they needed. I have been in very expensive restaurants where I haven't gotten near the quality of service as I did here at a counter service restaurant. But not only was the service great, the food was delicious. The catfish was some of the best I have ever had and their tartar sauce was delicious. We also shared a shrimp po' boy and chicken and shrimp with an appetizer of fried pickles for the table. While everything else was very good, the catfish was the shining star of the meal. We live far away, otherwise this would be a frequently visited restaurant for us. Highly recommend.“

“We had an amazing dinner tonight at YaYa’s! The sea scallops were exquisite and are the best we’ve had in St. Louis. The salmon salad and gnocchi were delectable, as were the cocktails. The icing on the cake was being served by the one and only, Andy Samberg!! I can’t believe he works here! The service was amazing as was his comedic nature! Everything about this place was top notch.!! We absolutely will be back! BEST.NIGHT. EVER!! ☺️“

“My first time trying this place ! I must say this place is 10/10 you basically food is fresh the staff is amazing ! The girl who was helping me she was so patient with me I did not know what I wanted and she took her time explaining things for me. My new spot“

“Food and service were excellent, lobster and striped bass entrees. Crab cakes are the best in the area, all crab. Unless you are large, you may wish to avoid the two person booth. The table is pretty far from you and you'll end up on the edge of the seat trying to reach your plate.“

“The food was delicious. My wife said her gyro was the best gyro she's ever had. I had the chicken shawarma and it was really good. The prices are better than they should be for the food you get. I would definitely recommend trying this place.My only complaint is that the TV in the dining area was stuck on a news channel while we were there, which was showing some pretty brutal war photos, but that's on me for feeling too awkward to want to ask them to change the channel.“

“First time here. We had the catfish and shrimp combo. We also had the gumbo fries and jerk chicken fries with the soft shell crab sandwich. The food was great. The guy taking our order was very helpful and had great recommendations. Would definitely recommend.“

“We went tonight for the first time! First off, so great to have a nice resteraunt and non-chain in O'Fallon! Food was great, service was great and loved the ambiance! Always love supporting local! This will definitely be one of our regular places! Looking forward to going back soon!“

“Had dinner here tonight with my buddy and had a very nice meal. Our waitress Nancy and her twin sister were terrific. The chicken dumpling soup was quite tasty. The chicken tenders were average. I'll have to try to burger next time since it looked really good.“

“If I could give 10 stars, I would. It's only the third time I've been here and each time has been outstanding. Staff's positive attitude and love. Food freshness and quality and portion size. Price.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The seafood is awesome. The shrimp are huge. The serving sizes are very large so I always have some left to take home. The Gumbo is great. It's not too spicy. They let us try it the first time for free. Now we always get it. The service is also good too.“

“Having dined there a number of times - it has been my experience that the food is always delicious. Amazing steak dishes.Menu is unique and interesting.The environment is great for events or just a nice dinner.I have dined in the main restaurant as well as the bar.Always a great experience.Thanks for maintaining a local vibe while delivering options unique to StLouis“

“We went here tonight for a birthday celebration. We have been wanting to try this place for awhile. After the most current reviews I was a little worried about trying it but we decided to anyway. I'm so glad we did. Everything was exceptional!!!! We were seated with minutes of arriving. Got drinks right away. Our waitress Sierra was fabulous!!! She was patient while we took our time deciding what we wanted. She was very attentive. Never had to ask for a refill. Our food was amazing!!! There was 6 of us and everyone enjoyed their meal. I definitely recommend this place.“

“I’ve been here many times since the start of 2024. The service has been amazing each time. They go above and beyond, checking on you throughout the visit and making sure everything is okay. The food is AMAZING! They actually leave a sauce at the bottom of the boil which allows you to dip your food in it throughout the meal. They put mounds of garlic at the bottom, which I love. The food always comes out steaming hot to where I burn my hands even though the gloves, but that’s 100% my fat self’s fault! The food doesn’t take too long to come out but not too quick as to where it is suspicious. I truly believe they make each order as they come. They even gave me a free slice of cheesecake for my birthday, which was very sweet. Will definitely continue to come back. Thank you!“

“I love gulf shores restaurants. The one in edwardsville had some problems with the turnover on cooks so stopped going. This one had good food I recommend the crab cakes. I got the mixed grill it wasn't very hot but we had 10 people in our group.“

“Our waitress was awesome and in fact, all the employees were very friendly. The food was great. We recently had a bad experience with a waitress at the South County location, so we thought we'd try the Chesterfield location. It was definitely worth the extra drive.“

“Even with a small wait (about 20 minutes, it was a Friday night), the staff was nice and did great! Haley was our server and got everything right and was super nice. Only complaint was one server, white guy, 18-23 ish, long blonde boy band hair, kept walking around kinda moping and you could just tell he'd rather be doing anything else, but like I said it was a busy Friday night.“
