We went to Seaside Fish House on New Year's Eve for a casual dinner, and we had a great experience…read more We were seated right away, and the staff gave us a heads-up early on that the food might take slightly longer because they were so busy. I always appreciate when a business gives me insight like this. We promptly received our drinks and were informed of the specials, which all sounded delicious. We put in our order, and we barely noticed a delay in our food coming out. (But nonetheless we appreciated the heads-up!) I had the short ribs, and they were incredible. They were falling off of my fork because they were so tender! The mashed potatoes served with them were also great. The rest of our party ordered seafood, and everyone in the group raved about how good their dishes were. My only regret was that none of us saved room for dessert! Something that also truly stuck out to me: one of the managers noticed my grandma was cold and adjusted the temperature in the room in which we were seated. I know this isn't standard practice at restaurants, but I can't say enough how much it meant to us that the staff paid so much attention to us. Seaside Fish House is DEFINITELY on my permanent list of favorite places in Delaware now.

We returned once more with my son and his wife for happy hour at the bar. For this trip, my lobster roll came with a noticeably smaller portion of lobster compared to previous times. The bill prior to tip was $109. Applying my $50 gift letter brought the balance down to $59. As usual, Chandra took great care of us. We all agreed that we'll definitely keep returning for lunch, happy hour, or dinner.

It's hard sometimes being the non-crab person at an AYCE crab feast. At some places, the menu…read moreincludes only fried apps or fried or highly sauced entrees. But I was able to find an entree here that was delicious, filling and fairly (depending on your choice of sides) healthful. First, the crabs. The place is crowded. We waited about 30 minutes outside (alternative is the inside bar) and got a table. We ordered our meals and within three minutes, my partner had a tray of 6 nice-size blue crabs in front of them. The sides (the AYCE comes with fries, hush puppies and cole slaw) came a few minutes later. My entree - grilled chicken breast with 2 sides - came a few minutes later. Two large moist breasts, fries, veggies (veggies add $2) and I ordered a third side - cole slaw for extra $2.95. If you are a non AYCE crab person like me, you understand the need to pace yourself during your meal - hence, the extra side. : ) I really enjoyed my meal and my partner the crabs. The service was exceptional - both water glasses and refilling those crab orders. My partner didn't have to ask for crab refills. Before they were done with one order, the server was ready with more to add to the platter. The server was very pleasant and seemed to know most of the customers in the place. There's an enthusiasm and positive vibe here that is really great. An excellent meal and overall good experience. And that's speaking as a non-crab person!

Tried Surfing Crab for the first time today. We got there at 3:45 on Sunday. The bar was completely…read moreempty so we sat there. I prefer bar sitting so I was very happy about it As soon as we sat down our server, Kyle, almost immediately came over and attended to us. He was great offered appropriate suggestions and gave helpful hints. One thing we learned was that it's better to reserve/order your crab beforehand. Especially during summer peak season. Since we didn't know (and therefore didn't order in advance, we had to settle the select size (12 ) of crab. Select is the smallest size, then medium, large and extra large. Next time we go there we'll order ahead. The 12 crab was MORE than enough for two people. We had deviled eggs and a half poumd of shrimp for appetizers. We had 4 beers, 2 cocktails and a dozen select size (small) crab. The bill was under 200 before tip. All in all I would recommend Surfing Crab. It's super crowded during the tourist season so be ready for a wait depending on the time you get there. Once you're in, you'll totally enjoy yourself. Very laid back and chill. You might even see the owners working with everyone else..

3.5* Parking was…read moretough, there were very few spaces and nowhere else in the area to park. The line moved at a decent pace but it seemed like only one person was taking orders despite having several people behind the counter. There was ample seating on the inside with the option to sit outside and look at the water. What we got: Banging Shrimp tacos - 4* the banging shrimp was really good but couldn't really shine in the taco. I'd probably have enjoyed it more as a platter. Fish tacos - 4* according to my partner, 3* according to me. While it was really good and things seemed to pair well, there wasn't a lot of flavouring to add pizzazz. Sides tried - Coleslaw - 3* nothing special. - Cucumber and tomatoe salad - 4* the best side of the bunch. - Fries - 3* nothing special. The Jo Bay seasoning on the table enhanced the flavour a lot.

Those are two no-nos with a French dip in my mind. The fries were fine. I was pleased, though, that they had Guinness in a can. Overall, probably average.

If you want a happy, filling and fun spot to grab dinner, this is for you. The wait staff is very friendly. I've been here twice and had a great experience both times. Greeted immediately and seated quickly. The super fun thing I liked about this place was the hands on eating. The tables are covered with paper bags as a big 'ol trash can is pulled up next to you. So as you're eating, you're throwing stuff out to the side of you. I don't know why, but I find that just SO fun! The chicken is surprisingly good, the lobster and crab are great. Don't get me started on their hush puppies. We tried the all you can eat but with everything else they have to offer, if you don't have a really BIG appetite, I'd pass on the all you can eat. All in all a great place to try at least once. I'm personally looking forward to my third time
