41 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cold Spring Harbor

“Amazing experience on a Saturday night. They put us front and center for the live pianist who was absolutely phenomenal. This is our new favorite spot in CSH without a doubt! The imported burrata was super fresh and tasteful a simple dish down right! The Cacio e Pepe for the main came with delicious Cajun chicken that was blackened perfectly. Can't wait to come back to this little gem in the heart of town.“

“Easter Sunday Dinner 2024 - Exquisite The rack of lamb was seasoned & cooked to perfection...tender, moist, cut like butter. Thank you! We were given all the time in the world to enjoy dinner...as though it were not a busy holiday. Wait service was exceptional. The entire experience was enjoyed by family who were visiting from out-of-state. The ambiance was a cozy, busy, and boasted water views. Plus, we had a visit from the Easter Bunny! Hippity-hop on over.“

“Sandbar is reminiscent of so many beautiful seaside venues. The interior design does match the restaurant's namesake and it was pleasant to the eye. Even the bar area looked inviting. I could see myself stopping by to watch a game.As for the food, my friend and I shared the mussels to start. Go ahead and dip some bread into the sauce of the dish. It'll change your life. We had the chickpea fries as well but I wasn't a fan of those. Our main dishes included the Pappardelle Bolognese and the Branzino. Both seemed expertly crafted. I have no complaints there. They seem to have a solid wine collection so don't worry about finding the right libation to add to your dinner.There were some slight service glitches and some of the staff seemed less than warm, but that could've been a fluke or my perception. Don't let that deter you. I would come back for sure!“

“Had an amazing Birthday dinner at Arlo last night! They gave me a lovely Birthday card which was so sweet. Started off with a delicious Moscow Mule, made perfectly. For the appetizer we chose the fried calamari. Light and crispy, the portion is huge. For mains I had the crispy duck breast and my fiancé had the shrimp. My duck was cooked to perfection and the blackberry gastrique was so incredible it made the dish. My fiancé loved his shrimp. For dessert we shared and devoured the baked Alaska. The side table flambé was so fun and made the night super special. Also can’t forget the complementary champagne they gave us for my birthday. I loved the low light and warm decor of Arlo made it so romantic and added to the specialness of the night. Oh and the service was really impeccable. Definitely will be coming back!“

“If you want a real dining experience versus just a meal, this is the restaurant for you! Attentive service with a list of specials that are a menu all on its own! The dishes are presented beautifully. Every bite sends your tastbuds into a world of pure delight. We will SO be coming back! Thank you JT, Chef and staff for a most memorable dining experience!“

“Great birthday celebration with great food and a great atmosphere. Loved the hush puppies and coconut shrimp for appetizers. Everyone loved their dinners. Highly recommend the Queen’s Boil and the Seafood Boil. If you like dancing in your seat, this is the place for you. Great music had us moving the entire time. Our server Nicky was awesome! Very personable, friendly, and attentive. He was always there to check in on us. We will definitely be back!!!!“

“Everything was delicious as usual! Grace was our server, she was excellent, Thai Calamari was amazing as well as the Caesar salad, lamb chops, shrimp and surf and turf dinner. Omg almost forgot the garlic bread. We will definitely be back soon. Traveling from Queens definitely worth the trip!!!“

“Saturday evening dinner without a reservation. Walking in, my eyes immediately gravitated to the pictures of the owners and the many celebrities that have eaten and visited there before. The bar area is very nice and large, with TVs playing sports and news. We were greeted, welcomed and seated immediately. The dining area is very large and decorous. The tables large enough to sit us all. My cousin-in-law and his family frequent the restaurant and he practically knows everyone there, so as we sat, we were introduced to the owners and pretty much about a half dozen waiters and other staff members. All were extremely friendly and welcoming. As expected with all family style restaurants, the tables are very close to one another but positioned in a way that still allowed for ample space for you to move and sit comfortably. When we sat, there were hardly any people there, but within an hour it was full of patrons and large families. It was loud, but manageable. The food was unbelievably delicious. I haven't had true traditional family style Italian food in a long time. From the Fried Calamari and cold antipasto appetizers, to our Veal Parmigiana, Penne allá Vodka with Shrimp and prosciutto entrees. Paired with a Cabernet Sauvignon Palermo Napa, I truly enjoyed my meal. I haven't enjoyed food this good in a long time. My girls shared a huge plate of Chicken fingers and fries, and they loved it. I highly recommend anyone who's in the area to dine here. You won't regret it. Thank you for a great meal and patronage.“

“I have really loved going there. The only complain would be the side salad. The Caesar dressing is awful and they have no ranch dressing. The steaks are good, but we are from Kansas City, so there's that. The meatloaf and other meals have been very good and we go on a fairly regular basis.“

“We held a private event for about 25 people last weekend in the upstairs space at Two25 and I could not have been more pleased! Leading up to our event, Andrea was very helpful and responsive, and the rest of the staff was just as incredible day-of. They were attentive to us and our guests (adults and children alike), regularly checking in to make sure everything was going well and everyone had what they needed. The restaurant is beautiful and the food was fantastic. It was the perfect place for our event, and we'll absolutely be back next time we're in the area!“

“This should be your first choice for authentic Greek dining on Long Island. Our meals were delicious, service excellent and the owner, Alex took personal interest in our experience. The next time you want to treat yourself...Neraki Huntington.“

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at IMC restaurant, and I must say, it was an experience beyond compare. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality that set the tone for the evening. The ambiance was inviting, with a perfect blend of elegance and comfort.But it was the food that truly stole the show. Each dish was a masterpiece, bursting with flavor and artfully presented. From the appetizers to the desserts, every bite was a delight for the senses. The culinary team at IMC has truly mastered the art of gastronomy.Moreover, the service was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of our dining experience was perfect.Overall, I cannot recommend IMC restaurant highly enough. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply craving an extraordinary meal, IMC is the place to be. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.“

“Made a reservation here for restaurant week. Apparently didn't need one. The place has its own parking lot with about a dozen spots. We entered the building which took us into the bar, which was bustling. The dining room was quaint, with some really nice booths and a fireplace that should have been lit. Our server was a good looking young man, pleasant, not overbearing with a sense of humor. We opted to include an additional appetizer of baked clams to our meal, along with the crab cake and winter salad, which I forgot to take photos of. My friend opted for the lamb chops while I had the branzino piccata. Yummy, although the menu never stated that the fish was served over a shrimp risotto. (I'm allergic to shrimp). Only 1 bone in the fish, so I was lucky. Our dessert consisted of tiramisu and rainbow cookie cheesecake. I was "fortunate" to get the last piece although not very cheesecake-y. All in all we had a nice dinner and will maybe return for another meal.“

“Open for lunch! Google maps said closed, (found out later, website had corrrct hours!) but we stopped by anyway thankfully. Beautiful lunch menu. Perfect French onion soup, sandwiches, etc. Excellent service because down to earth, real, friendly. Shall I continue? Totally recommend.“

“Delicious Cuban food and service! We had the smoked pork chops, boiled yucca, moros, black beans, oxtail, fried grouper, flounder in garlic sauce, and a salad. We also got ham croquettes and the extremes platter (Cuban antipasto) as an app. We cleaned almost everything on our plates due to how good it was, and also had some flan for dessert and churros and tres leches. The drinks were good and nicely spiked, we all liked the hurricane, mojito, and iced tea. Price was not bad for all that we had. Very good and will come back :)“

“If you are looking for the best sushi on Long Island FUKEE is the spot. I have been to my fair share of sushi places and nothing even comes close to the freshness and quality here. Spicy kani rolls, shrimp tempura, spicy tuna rolls, green salad and miso soup are literally the best I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve been on a 60 day cleanse and I’m counting down the days it’s over so I can get FUKEE again. I usually get it a few nights a week and every night it’s better and better if that’s even possible! I cannot say enough great things about this spot!! If you never had it; this is your sign to go, you won’t be disappointed! They have a customer for life, words can’t describe how much I love this place <3“

“The purple elephant is awesome! Lots of health conscious options. Their non alcoholic cocktail options are fantastic! They have the best nachos I've ever had in my life, the food is high quality and the atmosphere is so much fun! I've been coming here on a regular basis for years and it just keeps getting better!“

“Been going to these guys since day one. Local people supporting local baymen ? Nice, helpful staff and always willing to find what I'm looking for. The new kitchen is awesome. Always delish and stocked to the gills. I'm here at least once a week and I've reccomended J&M to dozens of people who have traveled as far from Queens just for their quality and service. My gotos are the clams/oysters, sushi grade tuna and fresh salmon (when in season!) Don't be misled by competitors! Do your research ppl! Eat Fish and support local a business that support local fisherman!“

“They have been around for a long time and continuously excellent for food and service. The noise remains due to acoustics so I turned my hearing aid lower and you get used to it The prices are fair considering Bidenomics, and they show their class by not charging for the use of Credit Cards. Got to get back here soon.“

“Great place for lazy quiet lunches... natural light filled atrium...good for all seasons..new modern decor...Servers a bit novice and look confused at times probably new o. The job..but will get better... food is very good and right portions..(not large greasy ).. coffee could get better .“

“Enjoyed an excellent steak dinner here. I had the bone in rib eye, and for the table we ordered hash browns, green beans, crispy onions, Brussel sprouts and creamed spinach.The creamed spinach was amazing, along with the rest of the sides.The steak was incredible, cooked to a perfect medium with just the right amount of seasoning, and incredibly tender.It's not cheap at over $800 (including tip) for 5 people, but for the first time I think it was worth the price.“

“We love Butera's and have had countless dinners at the restaurants and for delivery. The food is GREAT and we love the atmosphere. Among our favorites are their chicken meatballs and zucchini linguini. They also have great salads and the best pasta on Long Island!“

“My husband and I had an amazing meal here last night for my birthday. We had the fried calamari, grilled octopus, Caesar salad, stuffed lobster tail, and the hanger steak with an amazing mushroom sauce. The steak was so tender, it was like butter. The food was all delicious from apps to entrees and we really wanted to try a dessert too but were so full because of their large portions. I highly recommend Catch 25 and we will definitely be back soon!“

“The most incredible dining experience ever! Highly recommend. You may be thinking well what “dining experience “ does she have to make this statement .... I have dined at some of the most highly recognized restaurants in both NYC and throughout the world. Michelin rated as well. The food was beyond my expectations and I savored every bite. Staff was like family .. they could not have been more attentive! I even forgot to grab my take home and they texted me to come back If you can grab a seat at this unique personal dining experience please do ! Can't wait to go back !“

“John Conzone & his crew will SEE to it that you will have a great time here! Just spent a lovely evening with my bride & another couple. The martinis were fantastic & refreshing. Loved the veggie flatbread pizza as well as the tuna. Can't wait to return soon!Thanks for adding a breath of fresh air to the village! Dr. C“

“This is our “go to “ place for years! Wonderful atmosphere and great food!We recently hosted a party for 50 people and could not have been more pleased with the service and food. The upstairs party room is beautiful and well suited for private events.“

“A nice place for dinner. I went there with 3 friends on a Saturday nite at 7 pm. Was seated right away. All was great until the waiter spilled some sauce on one of us. Hey, accidents happened, and they compted the appetisers and moved us to a new table. Otherwise, the service was great. The calamari appetiser was light and crispy. Two people got shrimp scampi and said it was the best they ever had as was my veal Parmigiano dinner. It had a very tasty red sauce. The portions are big, and 3 people took leftovers home. I highly recommend“

“We planned a Christmas dinner here based on the reviews and the gluten free menu. We were one of two tables in the place. Food was great, service was great and we loved the holiday decorations. I’ve passed this place a million times with no hesitation but it’s definitely worth a visit.“

“Stopped in here with my wife today. It was 3:30 on Friday, we were the only ones in there, as we expected at that time. It was nice to see a family run restaurant. The owner was the chef, his wife and daughter the servers. Food was really good. We started with the guacamole and we ordered the mussels. The chef came out and said the mussels came in a little small today and asked if we would like the clams instead. We said why not. The broth in this clam dish was fantastic. Then he came back out and asked if we want to try his carrot soup. One of the best soups I've literally ever had. Then we finished with steak fajitas and the flautas. Both great dishes. They were really friendly and nice people. We really appreciated their service and kindness. Also don't forget to get the red sangria it's amazing.“

“I wanted to express the gratitude & appreciation I have for Jimmy, Armando & their staff. Simply Flawless.We had my daughters Baptism here & it was a perfect experience from the second we walked in. Starting with the attention to detail on how they set things up, to the service & to most importantly how delicious the food was.The Branzino's Family have not only encountered a new life long customer from myself, but everyone at the party will be looking to come back as well.Thank you, Team!“

“Since we went on Easter Sunday we expected a mediocre dining experience ourselves was THE BEST in a long time. The service was exceptional. We were 7 of us. We had lamb chops to Bronzino to sesame tuna to filet minion skewers to a burger. Everything was so delicious prepared to perfection. We will be returning and recommend this restaurant to everyone. The manager Nikko oversaw a wonderful dining experience..... Thank you“

“Northport Fish & Lobster Co hosted our raw bar (oysters, clams and shrimp cocktail) at our backyard party for 30pp this past weekend. Not only were they amazing the day of but also during pre-planning! They came to check out my yard ahead of time to see where they would set up, offered me two boat options to serve the seafood out of, and they checked in continuously throughout the process. Pricing was great and the raw bar was a huge hit. Highly recommend!!“

“I ordered from Hawaiian Kitchen on UberEats, so I can't comment on the service or ambiance at the actual restaurant. They were running a BOGO free deal on a few items, so I decided to order two of the Hawaiian Grilled Chicken Poke Bowl. The chicken itself wasn't anything special, and was a bit tough if anything. However, the rest of the toppings were pretty good. It was a satisfying meal and seemed healthy overall.“

“One of the most nicest Italian restaurant’s I have ever been to. Awesome service and lovely bar hostess named Melissa. Not to mention the atmosphere being very cozy and great food quality. They always do what you ask. Always remember who you are ♥️“

“Hands down the best pizza place in the area. I tried the others nearby but after trying victors it’s all I will eat. They have a big selection of slices available , I usually get the brick oven pizzetta which is delicious. Their garlic knots are some of the best around. They also have pasta nights and chicken nights where there are specials on those dishes. It can be extremely busy sometimes, but the service is good and the guys behind the counter are all funny and treat you like family. Highly recommend!“

“Sauerkraut chinese fish. This cuisine is generally for fresh of the boat Chinese people. But over the last few years, it has steadily gained popularity amongst non Chinese and even non Asians. I can't even explain what the taste is like aside from it being maybe lemongrass and spicy at the same time. The bowl is filled with random veggies, spices, and, of course, your choice of fish or even duck blood. This spot is located inside the food court of 99 Ranch Market. The prices are reasonable ($12.95), and the employees are nice. They also serve Malatang. Those that don't know, look it up. When you pay with cash, you get a free drink (yellow colored fruit tea)“

“Wow where can I start!! I just moved to Westbury from Commack not too long ago.. I came across this pizzeria and wow!! The food was amazing and the owners customer service was great and on point.My favorite dish is the chicken parm dinner with a side of penne allá vodka. Thank you Carlos for making the best pizza and food in town.“

“From start to finish we had a wonderful dinner at Ruth's Chris. We were pleasantly welcomed to the restaurant by the valet even though we had parked our car ourselves. We were seated quickly and immediately were given water and our drink order taken. Our waiter Tyler was so attentive and our food was absolutely delicious!“

“Recently discovered this hidden gem and we've been coming twice a month since. Such a great neighborhood staple - everything we've had has always been delicious and well prepared. Service is always quick and friendly. Standouts so far are the burger (has a nice char taste to it and cooked to perfection, generously sized patty), clam chowder, and the chicken francese was so tender and flavorful. We look forward to eating our way through the menu!“

“Delish food,margaritas were delish too!!Steaks and shrimp ceviche was also very good . We also had creme brûlée for dessert ,amazing. We also loved the band that was playing. We will be back. Highly recommended!! we had a great experience!!!“
