19 Best Seafood Restaurants in Arlington

“Recommended, did not disappoint, had the Po Boy, very filling, parking can be a challenge, but overall, worth the travel.“

“Had a fabulous birthday dinner with family last night. Oysters were delicious with a great hot sauce provided from the Bronx. Skate and Monkfish specials of the day were excellent. Monday night and there was not an empty table. Testament to the great food and wonderful servers.“

“Your beef steaks have a lot to be desired. Visiting from a state that grows a lot of beef your steaks are served just barely warm in the center with a slit sear on the outside. Unacceptable for a 40 dollar steak. I can't recommend your restaurant for a steak“

“Epic SmokeHouse – Arlington, VA Overall Rating: 8/10 Parking lot upgrades at the Pentagon brought G-FORCE to Arlington, but we didn’t expect to stumble upon BBQ royalty just a mile down the road at Epic SmokeHouse. Let’s just say… the name fits. We kicked things off with the App Sampler—and every bite hit like a flavor freight train. Smoked wings so tender they felt like they’d just left the hog pen—crispy skin, juicy interior, absolute perfection. Burnt ends? Melt-in-your-mouth with just enough sauce to whisper "I’m fancy" without screaming it. And the Kalua Pig Rolls… I still don’t know what’s in them, but I want to shake the chef’s hand (or hug him). Then came the showstopper: Brisket Poutine. Hand-cut fries crisped to golden excellence, smothered in rich brown butter gravy, melty cheese curds, and that sweet smoky brisket—topped with green onions and sesame seeds for that crunch-and-pop finale. This dish is dangerous… the kind of comfort food that makes you forget what day it is. The House Secret Burnt Mac rolled in hot in a mini skillet—smoky, cheesy, and just saucy enough to coat every bite without drowning it. Balanced, bold, and addicting. Don’t sleep on the Collard Greens either—just the right amount of flavor, a lil’ bit of spice but not too bold. A solid side that holds its own. Final Verdict: If you’re in Arlington for business, BBQ, or just breathing—get to Epic SmokeHouse. And if you're lucky, G-FORCE might’ve just made the parking lot a little smoother on your way in. #PaintAndPlateCrew #SupportLocal #EpicEats #BBQNearThePentagon #HIREAVET #GFORCEApproved #8OutOf10 #WINWITHVSB #PAINTCORPS“

“Great service, good food, nice patio, bar & inside spaces“

“I had an early afternoon flight to catch yesterday at DCA. So I stopped in at Your establishment to have lunch. The moment I got there I was greeted by the most friendliest staff I’ve experienced in a long time. My server was a young lady by the name of Betty. She was very knowledgeable and very polite. I ordered the fish sandwich and Chowder. They were both great. I will recommend this place to my friends and associates .“

“Overall the food was good. My partner and I both ordered the Connecticut Roll. The bun was melt in your mouth good. Honestly the best warm buttery bun I've ever had. However the lobster it's was bland. No salt whatsoever. They need to invest in Old Bay and use it. Season your food. I thought the tater tots didn't have salt, but once I got to the bottom I seen the salt, but the tots were also bland and burnt. I'd go back, but please season the lobster with Old Bay 😫 and all salt to the tots.“

“This is probably mine and the families favorite hot pot to go to in this area. The food is absolutely delicious, it’s nice that the vegetables are a buffet style where you can get them at your own pace. The quality is great and so is the service! If you’re into hot pot and in the area this place is an absolute must!!“

“This site is my preferable restaurant. Of all restaurants I know I like it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this restaurant. when I I need a good lunchon, this restaurant comes instantly to my mind. excellent and food and a rich cuisine.great staff members, and great spirit. And very important, the cost is honest. I sent my friends to this spot with pleasure.“

“I came here to try the endless seafood and tapped out so early 😂 everything I had was delicious though! Im so glad I ignored the negative reviews and still gave this place a try!

I went during happy hour time with a friend. They have a great happy hour as well!

For our selections, we had the crab balls, catfish, and wings. We also did a regular boil. Mine had crawfish, crab legs, headless shrimp, sausage, potatoes, and ramen. For the sauce I did everything but the lemon pepper one.

This was my first time adding noodles and it will not be the last. Everything was delicious, but I did feel like the butter taste was too prevalent so I will switch it up next time. The sausage also isnt the best, but I may get it again just to be sure lol. The wings and catfish were SO good. The crab balls are full of crab and minimal filler.

Definitely recommend this place for seafood lovers or someone who just likes a good happy hour with fun bar tenders!“

“Robel is an unbelievable barman! His choice of wine was perfect, and he made our experience truly special. The food at Eugenia Greek Restaurant was excellent, and the ambiance was warm and welcoming. We really enjoyed everything – highly recommend!“

“A great choice!
I was in the city for the day and found this place on tiktok and they didn't disappoint. The food was fresh and seasoned well. The portion size is plenty, you do get your money's worth. The service was quick. I would highly recommend.

* this is not a dine in resturant BUT still worth going*“

“It is a very good place, excellent food, the girl who served us 10/10, her attention was very good, the prices were fair. The only recommendation is the volume level of the music, it would be much better if a prudent volume is used to be able to talk and share with the people we have at our table. Thanks ?“

“Fabulous staff, delicious food, spot on cocktails (amazing negronis) not to mention wine special.“

“Our service was absolutely amazing our server gave us some recommendations for the area as we're new and took our picture for us. We ordered the Wagyu Steak Frites and the Sugar and Spice Cedar roasted Salmon with lobster mashed potatoes and the Calamari, all of our food was cooked very wonderfully I would recommend here to anyone that asks. Their dessert is also amazing, we got their upside down apple pie and there brown butter cake, both came with à la mode vanilla with the cake and cinnamon with the apple pie. This was our second visit and I think we'll continue to eat here quite often.“

“All I can say is .... wonderful pho at this restaurant. Definitely reconmend!.“
