Food is awesome! wait staff is cordial, professional, and helpful, and appear to look and smell CLEAN!It is a nice, quiet, CLEAN restaurant with great hours, and a great variety of menu items with specials listed for senior citizens. Has always had a great sanitation grade and i believe it is not "hidden". read more

Mayfair Seafood is a throwback to Southern fish camps with an emphasis on hot, fried seafood and sides. And there are not many of these places left, either. We've dined here twice for lunch and both visits were pleasant and efficient. The food came hot from the fryer to our table, was tasty, and well-plated. Our service was great and we thought the pricing fair. While they have grilled and broiled options, we have only chosen the fried fish and shrimp. That's what we came for: fried fish-camp style seafood. And they delivered. Looking for old school Southern seafood? Has my "Give 'em a Whirl meter" drenched in tartar sauce and grabbing a napkin. Support local. read more

Mayfair Seafood - Lunch special fish sandwich served on a brioche bun. Delicious - Seafood Near Me - Monroe, North Carolina

This place used to be better but it was never as good as the older true Southern fish places like Lineberger's. The broiled food was overcooked. As for the fried, It's ok. But fried scallops overcooked is well. And the price/value is not there. Waiter service was great this time but in past not so much. Last time we will eat there. read more

Living in Charlotte, you can't find a good seafood restaurant, it just doesn't exist anymore! I've been looking for something near by and came across Mayfair & decided to try! My experience was great, our server Amanda was so kind and helpful, the restaurant had a nice ambiance, and the food was good I'll definitely return if I need my fried seafood fix. Fun fact@ Mayfairs, their hush pups are circular! I thought they were onion rings, lol I shared a plate that had pick 3, plenty of food! read more

Mayfair Seafood - Seafood Near Me - Monroe, North Carolina

Ok at best! Rude older ladies at checkout, when I replied " not very flavorful ". to their question of " how was your fish" I guess they don't respond well to less than positive feedback. The older ladies , came off cold, lacked concern, and made no eye contact! moving on! read more

Very friendly waiter that went above and beyond (idk if it's appropriate to namedrop so I won't, but he honestly deserves a raise). Although the food wasn't a hit out of the park, it was hot & there was PLENTY. They have very big servings. We went on a Sunday almost right after church let out, but there weren't that many people - so it was quiet & comfortable. The only complaint is that it got cold where we were sitting, so make sure to bring a jacket just in case. read more

I had the fried cod platter with slaw, baked potatoes, hush puppies large portions, great service great food, bright and clean and nice ambiance I will return soon read more

The food was hot and ready when I arrived. The flavor and crispness of the shrimp and fries were everything I needed! The atmosphere was attentive and quick. read more

The service was horrible im from the other side of gaston county and decided to have a nice meal to bring home. But instead was given someone elses order. The staff then refused to get a manager and made up a story that i called to confirm my order was right. No who in the history of resturants call to say thanks for giving me the correct order i clearly have 2 different order tickets in my bag the correct one which was a pick 3 and one for shrimp and fries. Never have felt so disrespected to have driven an hour home and be called a liar read more

Yummy! My dad loves fried fish! I took him to Mayfair to celebrate his birthday and they did not disappoint! Fish on the bone just like my dad likes it! It was hot and delicious. The staff were excellent. And the restaurant was clean and very tastefully decorated. I recommend them for good old fashion fried fish! read more

LARGE BANQUET AREAS FOR 60 AND 100 PEOPLE. First time I've seen 2 such a large area for birthdays, class reunions and other big gatherings. And the huge dishes of food, much larger than most restaurants. My bongbong shrimp was 2 full meals. And they have plenty of parking. The menu was compete - every possible seafood or fish offering. This was my first time to eat there but I will be back. read more

Every time I'm in town I try to make it a point to get visit this spot. They've been around for years and do seafood right. The portions are big and I've never left hungry. Some days there's a line just waiting for them to open. You can call ahead or sit inside. The atmosphere is definitely family oriented and everyone is nice. read more

I am from Indiana an I travel to this area for 2 to 3 months to help with my MOM...FLY IN (Shout out to AA AIRLINES...). ANYWAY...please remember this review is of my experience...I always want others to see for themselves...here we go...We ate lunch here today 8/29/2023 ....Right when they open for lunch .....First time EVER HERE.. The waitress (blonde hair...clumpy expression I mean Act, like your sort of glad to be there) She took our order an answered our question... I ordered the coconut shrimp (which came out deep brown fried) an the Cajun chicken sandwich meal...(note to staff use more spice in your blacken chicken...the flavor was off) ..an the piña colada sauce, for the coconut shrimp needs coconut milk and try browning the coconut slightly, then adding some fresh coconut blending well, ....it's like you all empty a can of chunky pineapple...throwing in some pre-packaged coconut...yuck... but what really, and truly ticked me off is the disrespect for our military, retired and active duty. If you give a discount for dinner, you can sure as HELL can give one for lunch. WE ARE RETIRED MILITARY AND EVEN RED LOBSTER DOES LUNCH AND DINNER discounts FOR THOSE WHO SERVE...an have served.... I know you're not red lobster but I take their lead.... You guys need some major tweaking.... I rarely ever when I review give a two star, but you guys need help.... read more

Salad dressing (ranch) was watery. The salad was cut to such small pieces it was hard to even pick up with a fork. The New England clam chowder was NASTY. WAY too much corn starch. When I commented on how I did not care for it the server smiled and said yeah our soups here are disgusting. The fries were great, sauted shrimp was great. The server was very nice and checked on me regularly. So skip the soups and salads. The rest was good. read more

This was our first time stopping in. The restaurant is very nice inside. It looks like maybe recently remodeled or every well kept. The server was very helpful answering questions. The food was amazing! It was so much I took half home. The price was great for the amount of food. We will be back! read more

Mayfair Seafood - Lunch special was $9.95 and I got all this shrimp, baked potato, slaw and 3 large hushpuppies - Seafood Near Me - Monroe, North Carolina

I did online order Friday then picked it up through their pickup area. Got home with food and found that one side item was a tiny cup and didn't have the other side orders for 2 of the 3 large plates ordered that was a total of 69.00. then the fish was too well done and very dry. This place used to be excellent but the last 2 times I have gotten food have been disappointed. Will not be ordering here again. read more

I had the salmon salad for takeout. The salmon tasted dry and yet somehow oily. It's like they were trying to cover up a bad price of fish. The salad was underwhelming since it was basically just iceberg and they didn't give me silverware. read more

Food and service on point each time. Easy way to explain how great Mayfair is to say good luck finding a parking spot on a sat night.

Great place for family and friends! Offers curbside pick up as well , you don't even have to get out of your car ! read more

Mayfair Seafood - 98.5 rating ! - Seafood Near Me - Monroe, North Carolina

been customers for years and years; always given 10% military discount. 6 weeks ago cashier rudely announced in front of people :we don't give discount for lunch meals." I told her it was well after 5 and it was the supper meal. Two weeks later she didn't give me the discount and again in front of other customers, rudely told to take 8 pieces of 25 cent candy; a value 1/2 that of the discount. The next occasion when I Checked my receipt she has only given me a 3$ discount on an almost $50 bill. Last time (this week) she gave a $2 discount on the entire $40+ bill. When questioned she rudely said that's the discount. When I asked when did it change the cashier said it's been that way for a long time. Cashier is not only rude but a liar, Have not been able to talk to owner or manager about this. The shame is: good food and good service but rude and dishonest cashier read more

The parking lot was full and I expected to wait but the place is huge. Seated right away and waited on in minutes. Everything that came by my table looked good so I decided to try the Mayfair platter. Boiled shrimp, fried shrimp, fried oysters, fried scallops and fried flounder fillets. Excellent meal. Next time I plan to be healthier and try one of their broiled platters read more

This is hands down the best Seafood in town! You definitely get your money's worth in portions and the service has always been great. No complaints here! If you are reading this to decide to go or not - JUST GO! I guarantee it will be SO worth it! read more

Ok... just ordered and service has been horrendous up to this point! Hopefully, I can update my review, at the end of our meal, stating the rest was a more pleasant experience...? We'll see! Nope, service didn't get any better had to get any additional items that were needed from (Aleena? Spelling may be off). She was fantastic & doing her job VERY well! Yoselin just wanted us to leave! Even dropped off our check when she brought the food, Message Received! Tarter Sauce is very watery! Tea had gone bad, but was served anyway and only give 1 deviled crab now!? Restaurant was FREEZING cold! We love the food, but service is always lacking... read more

Very generous portions!! Usually order the grilled trout. Service is always spot on and food tastes great. Would recommend this meal as a take home and share item. It's huuuuge! Three pieces of grilled trout, salad, hush puppies, and a side. This could easily fill 2 adults. Might be why there is a bustling take out business. For the price you can't beat it. read more

We eat at Mayfair once per week. They give you plenty of food and I have never had a bad meal here. The service is outstanding. Many times we share a meal because the portions are pretty large. I highly recommend this seafood restaurant. read more

Well, this was unmemorable. The parking lot was packed, and always is so I had some expectations but when I walked in I immediately noticed a very dingy eating area. Not dirty, just....tired. They have a large fish tank but I didn't see fish. Just algae. We were seated quickly and despite being extremely busy with a large party, our server was at the table quickly for drinks and our order. The menu has the standard southern variety of southern fish camps, which is basically anything you can bread and throw in a deep far fryer. There was nothing memorable, and nothing that would bring me back there to eat. It seems to be quite popular with the local crowd, and I'm not sure why that is. I don't believe I will be returning to this restaurant because I just didn't get a good feel of it, and I didn't really enjoy the food all that much. read more

Mayfair Seafood is the Best. We've been coming here for many years and it is our favorite. The fish is always fresh and perfectly cooked. I usually order the friend oysters or Jumbo shrimp and occasionally the flounder or scallops. They are all terrific. Husband loves the flounder best. We go about twice a month as we seldom eat out unless we head to Charlotte. I've eaten at lots of fish restaurants within close to an hour drive, and this is my favorite, and I'm lucky I live in town. read more

I am in Town for business, staying across the street at the Hampton Inn. NO BEER! Or wine was my only disappointment but Wonderful Fried Shrimp dinner and excellent, attentive staff. I will be happy to return. read more

Great food as always !! We have to buy large flounder plates because our poodle eats half of our fish !! He is a BIG little Fan !!

How many second chances do you give a place? Well, after two second chances - that's right, three visits - I'm done with this place. I'll make the extra drive to Catawba to get quality seafood. Price isn't the issue, but when you order a large Green shrimp plate and they fill it with half popcorn shrimp and half green shrimp, that's just shady. This is Monroe's only seafood option, but there are many better within a half hour drive of Monroe. I'll drive the extra from now on. read more

We haven't eaten here since they moved. Years ago! I ordered takeout and my husband picked it up. He didn't even have to get out. The food was ready when promised. We got flounder, baby shrimp and coconut shrimp. Everything was great! We requested white side flounder and that's what we got. Will definately eat here again! read more

Our first time there. Seated right away but near the kitchen (there was other tables available ... we should have asked to move but not a big deal). Waitress was friendly and responsive. Food portions were BIG. We had the calamari for appetizer --- wasn't bad. They put pepperoncini peppers on them ... it was very good and a twist on a common appetizer. My wife ordered for us and she chose one of the platters (fried) that combined fish, shrimp, scallops and oyster along with french fries and cole slaw. We couldn't eat it all. The food was not overly greasy and it tasted OK to good. Overall the food was worth the cost. The service was good. The place could use an update inside. We will try it again. read more

Horrible service (or COMPLETE lack thereof). Showed up at 5:15pm was told it was would be 20 minutes. After 45 minutes we had to ask what was going on. We were told there were reservations in front of us. One of those reservations was for 7pm, but they showed up an hour early. Meanwhile there were two tables empty. So only after we complained about it did they seat us in one of those tables. After being seated we waited almost 15 and nobody came to our table. We were hungry and with a three year old, so we had leave. read more

This is your typical family restaurant for locals (and lucky tourists who discover it) with an extensive menu with something for everyone. We went back several times while visiting North Carolina. The prices were unbelievably very low for the quality and quantity of the dish. There was enough leftover for another meal. I was happy that my 3 picky eaters enjoyed the food as well. The freshness of the food each time we visited never failed. Service was fast and friendly with drink refills surprisingly coming without asking - very attentive stuff. It's hard to recommend a dish when all were so great. Boiled (my favorite) fish to non-greasy fried calamari, all were delicious. read more

This place smells like someone DIED. the chicken nuggets tasted Ike fish and and were soggy. I saw a dead fish in a pond and that would have tasted better than mayfair. I found a fish eye in my food. Never again!!!!! read more
